Chapter Seventy-Two: The Night Banquet of Mengfu
The night of the General's Mansion was unusually quiet, not at all like what Zhang Qianzhong said, there were many people who had not rested until midnight, the lights were bright, and they were heavily guarded. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"What are you doing? The dinner party in the General's Mansion is about to start!" Qingyu walked over.
"Don't worry about the road ahead without knowing yourself, no one in the world knows you. I'm scared, huh?"
"Afraid of what?"
"If it was really General Meng's doing, I would have one less confidant! Do you know, it wasn't his bold words that made me choose a big road to contact heroes and lead Cangshan, I really don't want him to be such a person, maybe what I'm afraid of is not that I Yang An has one less friend, but that my Chinese nation has one less hero!" Yang An's words came from the bottom of my heart.
When I was a child, I used to say that I not only wanted you to be a hero, but also wanted me to be a hero myself, and now I realize that heroes are not just what they want to do. Brother An, don't you know how to test characters? Tell me, how to interpret this English character?" Qingyu suddenly asked.
"How do you know I can test words?"
"Sister Youqu said it!"
"Word measurement is just borrowing words to say what you know, and you can't measure what you don't know. ”
"I don't need you to measure anything, I just need you to talk about words!"
"That's very simple, the English word is a grass cover on the top, and a yang on the bottom, which means that the person standing in the center with a man can be called Ying!" Yang An said.
"If you can be called a hero just by standing in the center with a hat on, there are many people who may do more things than the person in the center now, but no one knows him, are they not heroes? Who doesn't want to stand in the center, but not everyone can be like this!"
"What you said today seems to have something to say!" Yang An was a little puzzled!
"You'll understand sooner or later! I want to ask one more question, what would happen if I asked about feelings with this word?" Qingyu asked.
"Yours?"
"That's right!"
"As I said, the word test is what you know, and the things you don't know can't be measured!"
"And what if you test you?
"Didn't you say that you would just talk about words and don't ask about things?" Yang An was reluctant to answer.
"Brother An, just once, you just say it once, I want to know what you think in your heart!"
"You can also see my feelings, I like Yuqu!"
"Oh!" Qingyu replied softly.
Yang An is not stupid, he naturally knows what he means, in fact, he himself is not completely without feelings, but there is already a ghost song in Yang An's heart!
"Alright then, the dinner should begin, let's go eat!" Qingyu said and walked back like no one.
Soon he met Youqu, and Youqu said: "Brother Yang, where have you been? ”
"Get over right now!"
Everyone sat down, Meng Qing raised his glass and said, "Everyone comes to my General's Mansion, no matter what the purpose is, what the reason is, I, Meng Qing, welcome you!
After everyone drank a cup, Meng Qing said again: "I, Meng someone, have always been quick to talk, there is something that can't be hidden, I can't hide it, why did you come to my house, I can guess a little." I received news that someone in the court said that I was digging up treasures to finance the enemy, so I attracted you to find out. ”
"We also want to know the truth, and give you justice, Brother Meng!" Dan Lian said.
"If I didn't do it, it would naturally be justice to me, if I did, I'm afraid it wouldn't be that simple, isn't it, Brother Yang!" Meng Qing said and asked Yang An.
Yang An drank a glass of wine and said: "I don't have anything I can't say, I also told my sister before, if we blame Brother Meng wrongly, we will naturally bear the blame, if it is the truth, I Yang An will definitely not be soft." ”
"Well said, you can afford to put it down, and you are a real hero! In this case, I have nothing to hide, about a month ago, I received a secret report that someone was looking for the treasure hidden in the legendary yin-yang mirror. I once heard my father mention this treasure, the legend is that the land of Jingchu is the ancient bear country, the yin-yang mirror is the national treasure of the bear country, the legend is that you can see the secrets of people in this mirror, and later in the Yellow Emperor period, the bear country collapsed, all the treasures were hidden by the king, and the place where the treasure was hidden in the yin-yang mirror. This is a lot of wealth, so I sent someone to keep an eye on it from the dark, and the emperor paid off his wishes, and finally let me wait, so I sent someone to take it back, and in order not to let people find out, I handed it over to my wife and brought a few servants to escort it back. ”
Hearing this, Dan Lian hurriedly said, "The Mongolian soldiers I killed that day came to rob the treasure?"
Yang An always felt very familiar when he heard the "Yin-Yang Mirror", but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.
"They did rob them, but they didn't know that there was treasure in there, otherwise it would not have been a dozen or twenty people coming! Fortunately, you killed them, otherwise the treasure would have really fallen into the hands of the Mongols!" Meng Qing said.
"If I had known it was a treasure, I would have taken a few pieces and left. Dan Lian said with a smile.
"You are a girl, why are you so greedy for money?" Zhang said.
"Do you think that like you Zhang Dagongzi, you won't worry about food or clothing when you are born!"
"Alright, listen to the general! What about the treasure later?" Yuqu stopped them.
"I have thought about handing it over to the court, but now in the court, if I turn it in, most of them will still fall into the hands of corrupt officials. Later, I discussed it with my wife, and simply stayed by myself, and waited until the war broke out in the future, and then took it out and used it, of course, people are always a little selfish, so I dug up many places at home to hide treasures, some real and some false, so that the treasure was hidden. I know that there are people from the court among you, and they have already reached this step, and I don't want to hide it, so you can notify someone to dig it up!"
Qingyu didn't speak.
Yang An asked again: "What happened to killing the Mongolian soldiers?"
"Then it's even simpler, my wife came back and told her what happened, I quickly sent someone to investigate, found their traces, so I sent troops to kill them!"
"I heard Zao Wou-Ki say that they are here to take care of the treasure, which means that there are indeed people secretly who have access to foreign countries, but this matter was inadvertently broken by you, ruining their good deeds. By the way, are there any clues on those black-clothed people who are digging for treasure?" Yang An asked.
"There are no clues, nothing but black clothes, not even weapons!"
"I understand, it's very likely that when they saw that the matter was exposed, they found out that it was General Meng who did it, so they didn't dare to rob it by force, so they simply blamed General Meng for this matter, right?" Dan Lian said.
"In this way, this possibility is extremely high!" Yang An said.
"But who would do that?"
"If you can easily blame General Meng, and you can directly reach the heavens, so that the emperor can send secret agents, you must be in the court!" Yang An said.
"It's a pity that we'll never know who he is?" Meng Qing said helplessly.
"Not necessarily, there is another person who may know!" Yang An said, his eyes lit up.
"Who is it?"
"Youqu, let's go!" Yang An said and hurriedly ran out, and then everyone went out.
Everyone galloped for two hours, and finally came to the ruined temple, and as soon as they entered, they heard the little monk shouting: "Master, what's wrong with you?
Yang An and Youqu were the first to arrive, and when they entered, the old monk was already dying, his eyes were dull, and he seemed to have endless attachment, but he couldn't speak.
"Little monk, what's wrong with your master?"
"I don't know, the master suddenly vomited blood?"
"Are there any strange people who have been here today!"
"There is a person here today, it's really strange to say, on such a cold day, he wears very little!"
"Male or female?"
"The black-clad and masked man looked like a woman. ”
As soon as the little monk finished speaking, Zhang Qianzhong Danlian and Qingyu came in, and the old monk's eyes suddenly became very fierce, and he tried his best to raise his head, but he couldn't lift it, and suddenly fell to the ground and stopped breathing.
General Meng Qing also came in and said, "What's the matter?"
"It seems that we have even broken the last clue!" Yang An said.
"You're saying he's also a traitor to a foreign country?"
"There are so many treasures to be traded here, how can it be possible not to buy this old monk?" Yang An said.
"Yes!" Meng Qing turned and said, "Little monk, come here, has anyone in your master come into contact with very strange people!"
"I haven't seen it!"
"It's useless to ask him, even if those people really contacted the old monk, it is impossible for him to find out!"
"Yes!"
"Brother Meng!" Yang An suddenly knelt down.
"Brother Yang, what are you doing here?" Meng Qing hurriedly helped.
"Brother Meng, I said that if this matter has nothing to do with you, I will be guilty!" Yang An said.
"That's just talking, the most important thing is that you can trust me!"
"How could I not believe you now! Now all the evidence points to another wave of people!"
"That's good, get up!" Meng Qing said.
Back at the General's Mansion, Meng Qing said: "Which one is the secret agent of the imperial court, this is the map of my hidden treasure, you can send someone to dig it up!"
Qingyu walked out and said, "Treasure map, you take it back, I have my own explanation for the court, you keep it yourself." You're right, if it is handed over to the imperial court, it will only fall into the hands of corrupt officials, so it is better for you to keep it and wait for the war to break out before using it!"
"That's good!" Meng Qing couldn't believe it.
"Brother Meng, don't mess around!" Dan Lian said mischievously.
"No, no, no!"
"The people behind the scenes can't figure it out, it's better to rest for one night tonight, and we'll leave tomorrow!" Yang An said.
"Why don't you play for a few more days?"
"It's been delayed for a long time, and I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with the Chinese New Year if I continue to play!"
"That's fine, after all, family reunion is also a big deal. I'll see off Brother Yang early tomorrow morning!"
"Thank you very much!"
Yang An thought that he hadn't talked to Youqu for a long time, so he came to Youqu's room and said, "Did you sleep so early?"
"Not yet, but it's almost there! Why didn't you go to accompany Sister Qingyu?"
"Why did you go with her?"
"Haven't you seen each other for more than ten years?
"If you haven't seen each other for a year or two, you really have a lot to say, but if you haven't seen you for more than ten years, you have nothing to say!"
"Is she going back with us?" asked Yuqu embarrassedly.
Yang An smiled: "This is what you want to ask the most! Go back, naturally go back, but it has no effect on you, are you jealous?"
"What if you're jealous, she's much prettier than me!" Yuqu looked unhappy.
"What's so beautiful, it's much more beautiful, but it's your Youqu who has really taken care of me for seven years, do you understand, no one can replace your low position in my heart!" Yang An said and looked at him sincerely.
Youqu hugged Yang An tightly, cried, and said, "Brother Yang, I'm so afraid, Sister Qingyu is so beautiful and more capable than me, I'm really afraid that she will snatch you away from me!"
"Fool, it's okay! I like you, I love you! Don't you have to go to my house, why are you still so unconfident. ”
"Isn't Sister Qingyu going too?"
"She's going to see my mother, you know!"
"I know that I know, but I still don't feel at ease!"
"I can't help you!"
Early the next morning, the five of them said goodbye to Meng Qing and set out on the way home.
"To tell you the truth, Sister Qingyu, you were so handsome in those few words last night, you gave away so many treasures?" Dan Lian said.
"Those treasures are not mine, and I can't get them if I don't give them to him!" Qingyu said.
"That's right, you think you can take it if you want to! It's too beautiful!" Zhang Qianzhong was a little disdainful.
"What's the matter with you, I won't let you go to my house if you talk again!"
Zhang Qianzhong had no choice but to keep his mouth shut obediently.
Yang An asked, "Qingyu, won't the imperial court send someone to look for you?"
"Secret agents, you only need to go back and report if you have information, and no one cares where you go. ”
"That's not bad!"
Zhang Qianzhong sighed: "Thinking about it, I have really met a lot of people along the way, Brother Leng Hanfeng of Dongting Lake, Brother Meng, ......"
"Speaking of this Leng Hanfeng, martial arts are really powerful, and he can kill people invisibly!" Dan Lian sincerely admired.
Qingyu said with a smile: "The cold front of Dongting Lake, did you have an old man by your side when you met him?"
"That's right, you've seen him too!"
"Although his martial arts are powerful, they have not yet reached the level of Zhang Gongzi's father, and the one who can kill people invisibly is the old man next to him, he is the Qiu hermit of Dongting Lake!" Qingyu explained.
"You are different as secret agents, you know everything, but Qiu Hermit, why do you want to be a thug for his disciples, do you want your disciples to be famous?" Dan Lian was still puzzled.
"Then it's not clear, everyone has their own thoughts, there are many weirdos in the world!" Qingyu said.
"Okay, don't talk, when will it be so slow, hurry up, and try to arrive before Chinese New Year's Eve." ”
"Good!"
"Go home!"
"So happy to go home?"
"Of course you're happy, don't go if you're not happy!"
"Well, I'm happy too!"
“......”
