Chapter 44: The man in the cloak in front of the Tsing Yi Building
Somebody can tell? That's a slippery answer. Lu Ran is old and refined, how can he not hear it. So he looked at the two young men with amusement, and his gaze became more and more gentle.
In fact, compared with his grandson Lu Yun, Lu Ran's attitude towards Xiao Chengfeng and Mo Langyue was surprisingly good. Except for the gossip at the tea table, he didn't mention last night's events at all, which made the two of them uneasy. But until he left, Lu Ran didn't say anything constructive, and this tea appointment that seemed to be quite formal was over.
"It's weird!"
Out of the teahouse, Dingfeng walked a distance, Xiao Chengfeng was still reminiscing about the meeting just now, and always felt that there was an indescribable meaning under Lu Ran's smiling and kind eyes.
"You say, he should always ask us something, what is that? What kind of medicine is sold in the old man's gourd?"
"Who knows?" Mo Langyue looked like she didn't care about herself, and said, "The important thing is that we don't have to worry about being wanted. ”
"Are you worried about being wanted?"
Xiao Chengfeng looked at him strangely, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't think that the other party went to the appointment for this reason. In fact, to be honest, he is not for this reason.
"Of course not!"
Mo Langyue nodded sincerely, and said: "It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that the old mansion of Xiao Ge has been abandoned for a long time, and there is no one left, but how can Lord Lu Ran appear there? It seems that it is not accidental, doesn't Brother Tai feel strange?"
"It's weird!"
Xiao Chengfeng nodded and said, "But when the tea appointment returns, we don't have much to gain, and we haven't touched Lord Lu Ran's true intentions." ”
Mo Langyue smiled faintly, but shook her head indifferently and said: "You and I have just come out of the rivers and lakes, and we will be fortunate enough to know the ancestors of the famous Lu family, which can be regarded as a big harvest, as for the rest, it will be a long time, we will come to Japan for a long time!"
Xiao Chengfeng felt that it was very reasonable, so he no longer got entangled, but invited Mo Langyue to go to the wine shop with great interest, and said that drinking would show his true temperament.
Mo Langyue didn't say anything, so she was hard-pulled by Xiao Chengfeng to a winery.
I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the winery chosen by Xiao Chengfeng is located on the bustling Suzaku Street, and it happens that opposite is the famous Tsing Yi Building.
Yunlai Brewery, yes! It is such a sake brewery with a cheesy name, but it is the best sake brewery on the entire Suzaku Street. But the wine here is the only one in the whole capital, and it can't be drunk anywhere else.
Mo Langyue and Xiao Chengfeng sat on the table near the window on the second floor of Yunlai Wine Workshop, simply asked for a few side dishes, and drank them. Looking through the window, you can see the entrance of the Tsing Yi Building.
Through the window, Mo Langyue saw that the middle door of the Tsing Yi Gate was wide open, and people were coming and going. Then he smiled and said, "What does Brother Xiao want to see from here?"
Xiao Chengfeng sneered and said, "Of course I saw what I wanted to see!"
What does Xiao Chengfeng want to see? Mo Langyue didn't ask, he just smiled and didn't make a sound, for him, the wine he had just tasted was much more attractive than the question in front of him.
The winter days are short, and it is already the time to hold the lights, and the sky is gradually darkening, but the number of people coming in and out of the door of Tsing Yi Building has not decreased at all.
At this time, a figure with a low head and a slightly chubby body appeared at the door of Tsing Yi Building, covered by a cloak, and his face could not be seen clearly.
"Is that him?"
Mo Langyue raised her eyebrows and turned her head to look at Xiao Chengfeng.
"Ugh!"
Xiao Chengfeng cleared his throat and said with a dry smile: "It may or may not be!"
Mo Langyue said: "I guess it must be!"
Xiao Chengfeng was a little curious and asked, "So sure, why?"
Mo Langyue said: "In this person, I saw a familiar shadow, I think it should be a person I have seen." ”
Xiao Chengfeng was even more curious in his heart, and suddenly became interested, and asked, "Who does that brother think he will be?"
Mo Langyue smiled: "Who is it? Shouldn't it be Brother Tai who should be worried, why did you ask about the little brother instead?"
"Why don't you just ask, why don't you ask?" Xiao Chengfeng looked embarrassed, and replied with a smile, his tone sounded a little more juvenile, and a little bit of a scoundrel.
Mo Langyue smiled and looked at the person again, but saw that the person lingered at the door for a while, and then walked into the door.
At this time, Xiao Chengfeng suddenly stood up and walked downstairs quickly. But in less than a moment, he quickly turned back again, and there was a faint warmth on his face.
Mo Langyue glanced at him lightly, and then continued to look out the window.
Xiao Chengfeng's series of actions didn't make Mo Langyue react too much, which made him a little breathless. The result was different from what he expected, otherwise he wouldn't have forced him here. So he took the initiative to say: "Tsing Yi Lou is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, any old man who looks at the courtyard is a powerful character." ”
Mo Langyue said: "So, if you want to go in and investigate, you can't." ”
Xiao Chengfeng thought for a while and said, "You don't have to go in, and you don't have to investigate. I'm just curious. I was drinking here yesterday evening, and I also met this mysterious cloaked man, who at first felt a little familiar. Actually, it didn't have anything to do with me in the first place. But after we met Lord Yingjun and his party this morning, I suddenly felt that this figure became more and more familiar, and I wanted to know who he was and why he was patronizing Tsing Yi Lou. Presumably you also know that Tsing Yi Lou's mission is basically a bodyguard, but secretly he also takes on assassination missions, other than these two things, I can't think of what he can do when he comes to Tsing Yi Lou?"
Mo Langyue retracted her gaze, and suddenly smiled a little mischievously: "Perhaps, he may be visiting relatives." ”
Burst......
Xiao Chengfeng coldly squirted out a sip of wine, laughed and said, "Why don't you say that he is here to see a doctor?"
Mo Langyue nodded, and said seriously: "Maybe this is also maybe, I heard that Mo Yunyi, the second master of Tsing Yi Building, is a very famous master of Xinglin, maybe this one is here to see the disease." ”
Xiao Chengfeng said: "But how can a sick person pretend to be so mysterious?"
Perhaps, he has some ulterior secret disease to meet this special person in this special way, in fact, there is nothing, but we are too bored and too curious. Mo Langyue said.
Xiao Chengfeng couldn't help but smile, looking at his nonsense, he inexplicably felt interesting, and it was extremely interesting.
"So, I really shouldn't have probed him, just in case it's someone else's privacy. ”
Mo Langyue took a glass of wine and said, "So, let's drink quietly!"
Xiao Chengfeng didn't want to stop there, but shook his head and said: "Everything should have a beginning and an end, since I have already checked it, if there is no result, wouldn't it be bad." ”
"Well, that makes sense, then go check it out!"
"I can't get in, how can I check?"
At this time, Mo Langyue stood up and beckoned downstairs, then turned back to Xiao Chengfeng and said, "Don't check, the news you want is here." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar person came up from the staircase, but it was Lu Yun, whom he had just met in the afternoon. At this time, Lu Yun had completely taken off the coarse cloth shirt of the shopkeeper and put on a turmeric brocade robe, covered with fluffy shoulders, which made him handsome and extraordinary, and he was really dressed up for the occasion and identity.
As soon as Lu Yun came upstairs, he came over with a smile and said to them, "If it weren't for you to say hello, the little brother wouldn't have known what excuse to come up to see you?"
Xiao Chengfeng was slightly stunned at first, recalling the meaning of this sentence in his mind. Suddenly thinking of the identity of Lu Yunqian's Jinyi Guard's commander, he instantly understood. Thinking that their whereabouts must have fallen into the eyes and ears of the Jinyi guards in the city, it is estimated that Lu Yun will know it as soon as they sit down. figured it out, so he smiled and said, "It's just that I'm so honest with you, it doesn't matter what kind of excuse I make." ”
Mo Langyue nodded and smiled: "Although it doesn't matter, you have to say something!"
"What does it mean?"
Lu Yun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly saw the Tsing Yi Building opposite, and thought of the purpose of their coming here, so he said, "What do you want to know? ”
At that moment, Mo Langyue and the two of them looked at each other and smiled, pulled Lu Yun to sit down, and told him what he had just seen the cloaked man.
"Who is he?"
Xiao Chengfeng asked bluntly.
Lu Yun was stunned again, and said, "I can't say it!"
Xiao Chengfeng said: "That means you know but can't tell us who he is?"
Lu Yun nodded silently, judging from the description and time of the two of them just now, he just knew the cloaked man who appeared at the door of Tsing Yi Building, and he was also curious about why he found Tsing Yi Building, but no matter what, he had the obligation and responsibility to help keep it secret.
