Chapter 45: Bitianyuan

Three days later, after several months, the convoy finally returned to the capital. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Jianye City was close at hand, and as soon as Bai Cheng and Lin Su were together, they bid farewell to Wei Guxia and Han Zhan.

Wei and Han naturally refused to agree, and insisted on keeping Lin Su and Bai Cheng in the mansion.

Bai Cheng has been surrounded by all the dart masters in the past few days, and he has not been able to clean up for several days, and he has already been dizzy, and he is determined to refrain from the warm greetings of the two. The two insisted on refusal, and Bai Cheng had no choice but to promise to visit him in the future before he could get out.

Lin Su also saw that Bai Cheng was so embarrassed, and he couldn't stop laughing on the side.

Wei Guxia and Han Zhan left with great regret and returned to General Wei's mansion to hand over the business.

Bai Cheng looked at the team in the distance, patted his chest, and let out a breath of air, as if he had unloaded a thousand catties of burden.

Lin Su also shook the folding fan in his hand lightly and asked, "Brother, what are we going to do next?"

Bai Cheng said with a smile: "Ten days later is the day to report to the White Tiger Hall, these days, our brothers might as well travel in the city for a few days, and the younger brother can recover and recover." ”

Lin Su also saw that he looked apprehensive, and said with a smile: "Miss Wei is favored by beauty, but the elder brother is unmoved, and he really doesn't mess with Liu Xia Hui." ”

Bai Cheng smiled and said, "Brother Lin's deep affection for Miss Wei, the younger brother is all in his eyes, how dare he win people's love?"

Lin Su's face sank, and he said: "Brother, I have joined the Daomen, and I have already decided not to marry a wife again, brother, don't joke about this matter." ”

Bai Cheng laughed, pointed at Lin Su and said, "If the old Taoist doesn't marry a wife, where does the little Taoist come from?"

Lin Su finally couldn't hold back his face, and laughed loudly: "My brother learned these jokes from there." ”

Bai Cheng said with a smile: "The younger brother listened to a scholar surnamed Lu when he was a teenager. ”

Lin Su also smiled and said: "This scholar is really not serious! But then again, let's not be in a hurry to play, there is one thing that needs to be done by my brother as soon as possible." ”

Bai Chengqi said: "What did Brother Lin say?"

Lin Su also smiled: "On that day, the Qingji Daoist admitted you to the Daomen, and a few days ago he applied for Taoist membership for you. Somehow, Daozhong left your Dao book in the Bitianyuan in Beijing. Now that we have arrived in Beijing, it is better to go and apply for registration as soon as possible, otherwise we will not be officially from the Daomen after all."

Bai Cheng nodded and said, "Senior brother is right, then let's go to the Taoist book first, and then go to the mountains and rivers." ”

The two walked hand in hand towards Jianye City.

Jianye City has a long history, it is already a famous city in the world, since Changxing Chen's Nandu, and Jianye City as the foundation to develop in all directions, after a hundred years of development, it has been the first male city in the south of the Yangtze River.

Jianye City is divided into three parts: the inner city, the outer city and the suburbs. The inner city is the imperial city, with a radius of ten miles, where the current emperor Chen Yao and the harem concubines live. The outer city was more than ten times larger, and most of the royal nobles, princes and ministers, the six yamen, and millions of residents lived here. Beyond the city walls were suburban villages and the estates of the city's dignitaries.

The city is close to the Yangtze River, the waterways are dense within a radius of 100 miles, moistened by water vapor, the four seasons of the year, the climate is pleasant, the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River is a group, and the beautiful scenery in the city is innumerable.

Downstairs under the city gate, the car is like flowing water, the horse is like a dragon, the breath is like a cloud, and the sweat is like rain.

There are a total of 18 city gates in Jianye City, every day a large group of carriages and horses pass under the city gate, shoulder to shoulder, during which there are mixed officials who go to Beijing, merchants from other places, some of them look dressed up and are wealthy businessmen from the three northern countries.

Lin and Bai poured into the Cangbo Gate with the crowded flow of people.

A bluestone avenue is smooth and wide, with merchants on both sides lined up one after another, mostly some two- and three-story small buildings, and all kinds of rare goods from the north and south of the river are sold.

Lin Su has always paid attention to not getting tired of eating, not getting tired of being fine, these days in a hurry, has long been suffocated, after entering the city, he pulled Baicheng to find a famous local restaurant.

Soon after, the two came to the local famous Dajiang Pavilion, found a seat by the window on the second floor, asked for a few good dishes, a jar of good wine, and chewed on it.

After he was full of wine and food, Bai Cheng waved his hand and called the man and asked, "What is this brother's name?"

The guy smiled: "The little surname is Liu, you can call the little Liu Er"

Bai Cheng nodded and said, "Second Brother Liu, I heard that there is a Taoist temple in your Jianye City, called Bitianyuan, do you know where it is?"

Liu Er pondered for a while, and after a while, he said: "The little one grew up in Jianye City since he was a child, and he has never heard of this Taoist temple, could it be that the guest official remembered it wrong?"

Bai Cheng frowned, the guy in this kind of big restaurant is the most well-informed, and his accent is also a local, if he doesn't even know it, this Taoist temple is really hard to find.

Lin Su also saw that his face was embarrassed, and with a "snap", he patted a silver ingot, and said with a smile: "You think about it again." ”

This ingot of silver is not small, it is a small ingot of five taels, shining silver, and the eyes of the guy who shine are shining. After gritting his teeth and thinking for a while, he said with a wry smile: "The little one really can't remember." ”

Lin Su also shook his head, reached out to take back the ingot, shook it in his hand, sighed, and put it back in his bag.

The guy stared at Yuan Bao with straight eyes, thought for a while, and said: "Don't worry, this guest officer, we have an old accountkeeper surnamed Feng, and his ancestors have lived here for three generations, so maybe he knows about this Bitian Courtyard." ”

Lin Su also put the silver back on the table, patted it lightly, and said with a smile: "Then why don't you ask?"

The guy smiled, and a cigarette seemed to run to the backyard, and it didn't take much effort to help a trembling old man.

The old man staggered to the table, squinting his eyes and looking at the two of them suspiciously.

The guy hurriedly said, "Old Feng, it's the Bitian Courtyard that these two guest officers asked." After speaking, he turned to the two and said, "This is Old Feng, he has to make it clear to the two of them face to face." ”

The old man surnamed Feng asked in a hoarse voice, "Is it the two of you who asked about the location of the Bitian Courtyard?"

Bai Cheng stood up and arched his hand and said, "Old man, please sit down, I have something to do to go to Bitian Courtyard and my party, and I hope that the old man will give me some advice." ”

The old man surnamed Feng was old and impatient, so he sat down tremblingly and asked, "What are you doing in Bitian Courtyard?"

Lin Su also interjected: "Let's go find a friend." ”

The old man surnamed Feng shook his head and said, "Don't lie to me, there will never be any friends of you in the Bitian Courtyard." ”

Lin Su was also stunned and said: "Old man, don't you see that my two brothers are young, but they are also people who have been walking for a long time, and they have many friends from all over the world. ”

The old man surnamed Feng shook his head, coughed heavily, and said, "Fifty years ago, Bitian Courtyard suffered a military disaster, and the whole courtyard died.

Lin Su also shouted, "What!"

Bai Cheng frowned and asked, "How can this be?" ”

The old man surnamed Feng coughed again and again, but did not speak.

Bai Cheng's heart moved, and he said to the guy: "Why don't you get two jars of good wine!"

After the guy went downstairs and left, the old man surnamed Feng stopped coughing and said in a low voice: "Bitian Courtyard was originally a royal Taoist temple, and on the night of August 15 fifty years ago, there was a military disaster for some reason, and everyone in the whole courtyard escaped with their lives, and no one mentioned it afterwards. Later, the government sealed the Bitian Temple, and no one has stepped into it since then, so the younger generation doesn't know that there is such a place. ”

Lin Su also wondered: "How can the old man remember it so clearly?" (To be continued.) )
