Chapter Ninety-Nine: Blackstone Town
"Wind, are we really going", Luo Qingxue suddenly asked, for some reason, she always felt a little uneasy in her heart. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Judging from Duanmuxuan and Lin Yuhan, who had already appeared last night, the situation here was obviously more severe than she had expected. And in the dark, I don't know how many people who have not yet appeared are waiting for an opportunity to snoop.
Yang Xiaofeng looked at her, smiled lightly, and then took her hand and said, "Don't worry, it's okay with me."
It's just that although he reassured Luo Qingxue, he himself was also a little uneasy at the moment. But what does it matter, as long as she is by his side, he will never have the slightest confusion and hesitation.
After a pause, Yang Xiaofeng said again: "I don't know why, I always feel a little uneasy in my heart these days. Although time has passed, the matter of our Qingshui Villa is still a fog, and the recent incident of the Orchid Gate and the Tianyinmen Treasure Incident, although these two things seem to have nothing to do with the matter of Qingshui Villa on the surface, I feel that these things always seem to be somewhat intrinsically related."
Luo Qingxue was shocked in her heart and said, "Isn't this feeling of yours too far-fetched?"
Yang Xiaofeng analyzed lightly: "When the disaster happened back then, our Qingshui Villa was the first martial arts family on the rivers and lakes at that time, just imagine, what kind of powerful force can destroy our Qingshui Villa in one fell swoop in just one night, and who dares to attack us?" Let's talk about the last two incidents, in the Orchid Gate incident, there was a character Blood Shura related to the incident of Qingshui Villa back then, and although the person behind the manipulation of this treasure incident has not yet appeared, it is definitely not trivial to be able to manipulate such a huge conspiracy. Judging from the above points, do you think that the forces behind these three incidents are very similar, or that they are simply the same force."
"This ......", Luo Qingxue thought about it carefully, looked at Yang Xiaofeng with a worried face, and said worriedly: "Then you ......."
She didn't say any more about the rest of the story, and now she finally knew what was the cause of her uneasiness—he had been a little wrong since he saw the so-called fake treasure map in Falling Snow Valley.
Unexpectedly, Yang Xiaofeng suddenly smiled heartily, looked up at the outside, and said: "Ah Xue, don't worry, no matter what happens in the future, no matter what you have to face, I will still be the same me before, and there will never be any change."
Although he spoke casually, his tone was unusually firm. It's just that he may not quite understand that many times, fate does not give us much right to choose for ourselves.
Luo Qingxue also smiled softly and said, "I'm the same as you, no matter what happens in the future, I will never change." No matter what time it is, I will always be the same person I was before, I was like this, I am like this, and I will continue to be like this. Although I don't know what will happen in the future or what I will have to face, I will never be afraid. If there is something that cannot be escaped, then just let it come, no matter how difficult the road ahead, I will face it with you".
"Okay, Ah Xue, that's a good point, you're not afraid, am I still afraid"?
Yang Xiaofeng was aroused by her for a while, and said loudly: "Even if fate is already doomed, what is there to be afraid of." Even if fate has arranged a dead end for me, then I will not despair. As you just said, everything is just for the sake of it, and we don't need to run away from it, and we don't need to run away. No matter how difficult it will be in the future, no matter what will happen in the future, as long as we husband and wife work together and share the ups and downs, there will be no hurdle that cannot be overcome."
It turned out that although his current heart was already as calm as water, this water would still set off earth-shattering waves.
It turned out that the blood in his heart had never become cold, and it turned out that although so many years had passed, his passion, his free and easy, his uninhibitedness, and his pride and flamboyance, it turned out that these were still there.
It turned out that he had always been the peerless boy who used to be in Qingshui Villa.
"A good husband and wife are of the same heart and share the wind and rain. But don't forget, it's not just you two who are working together, but also my brother."
As he spoke, Lan Xiaorui was already urging at the door, and said loudly: "Big brother, I've packed up, do you think it's time to go"?
Yang Xiaofeng took one last look at the house, got up and said, "Ah Xue, let's go."
At that moment, the three of them left the old store of the Zhou family and slowly went north to the town.
Blackstone Town, as the name suggests, is that there are a lot of black-brown stones in the local area, and the people in the town mostly use it to build houses, etc., after a long time, they forget the original name of the town, and instead are used to calling it Blackstone Town.
To the north of Blackstone, there is the Black Rock Mountain of the same name, or a group of mountains. There are many large and small caves in the mountains, but everyone knows that in addition to some small animals such as pigeons and bats, all that is left in the caves is stones, stagnant water, and the like. Anyway, the people who lived here had never heard of any treasure in a cave. But recently, there have been a lot of treasure hunters in the town, which makes the aborigines of the town very puzzled and at the same time feel very strange.
Just imagine, if there is a treasure in a cave in Blackstone Mountain, how can they not know that their ancestors have lived here for generations. As a result, most of the town's native names are somewhat scornful of the fanaticism of these outsiders.
What makes the town's aborigines happier than the treasure is the recent surge in traffic. The more outsiders, the better the business of restaurants, inns, and restaurants in the town, and some of them are sharp, so they simply become tour guides, leading treasure hunters all day long to run around the mountains and earn some errand money. And most of these treasure hunters also made a lot of money, which made the townspeople happy, and they took the opportunity to make a lot of money.
No, I heard that there is a place for the treasure to be hidden today, so it was just dawn, and many people in the town didn't even stay up until dawn, so they waited at the intersection early in the morning to guide the treasure hunters who were not familiar with the terrain, and just enough to earn a few changes.
Yang Xiaofeng and the three had just left the town, and they saw several locals waiting around at the intersection, obviously waiting for business.
As soon as he saw them, a young man immediately took the initiative to run over, and greeted with a tentative smile: "Several, but do you want to go into the mountains to hunt for treasures, if you are not familiar with the terrain, I can guide you below."
Yang Xiaofeng asked: "Looking at this, I'm afraid that the little brother has been waiting here for a while, do you know how many people have passed before?"
The young man thought for a moment and said, "I've only been waiting here for a while, but there are probably more than a dozen groups of people who have passed in this short time."
"In this way, today's scene will definitely be very lively......", Yang Xiaofeng muttered, and then said: "Then bother the little brother to lead the way, and the three of us want to rush over to have a look."
"Okay......," the young man gestured to the three of them, and said, "Come with me, and when you get there, if it's convenient, just pay me twenty cents." If it's inconvenient, don't worry, the right is to play with a few people."
"Then let's go."
At that moment, the four of them, plus the young man who led the way, slowly rushed to the Black Rock Mountain.
Lan Xiaorui joked as he walked: "This little brother is really a kind person, what did you just say, if it's inconvenient later, you don't want our leading fee?"
The young man realized that he had just talked too much, but the words had already come out of his mouth, and he couldn't regret it, so he had to say with a bitter face: "Anyway, I stayed at home and had nothing to do before I came out to go around, so I will be a free tour guide for a few people today."
Yang Xiaofeng had already taken out half a small string of money from the money bag on his waist, which looked like it was just twenty yuan, and gave it to the young man, and said with a smile: "How can you let the little brother go this trip in vain, this is your foot fee, accept it."
"Thank you for this big brother, it's still ...... you are so good", the young man quickly took it, and without counting it, he put it directly into his arms, thanked him with a smile on his face, and then glanced at Lan Xiaorui again, and said: "It's not like this son, who likes to bully honest people like us."
Lan Xiaorui was embarrassed for a while, so he had to laugh dryly and stop talking. Looking at his appearance, the other three all snickered.
Yang Xiaofeng's gaze inadvertently swept over the young man who led the way, and the smile on his face suddenly stiffened slightly. I saw that although the other party was wearing the most common plain cloth shirt of the locals, he was wearing a pair of fine leather short soft boots on his feet, which are usually only popular in the humid places of the south of the Yangtze River, or used by nocturnal walkers.
Blackstone Town is located in the northwest, the rain is scarce, it is early summer, the weather is already hot, and the local people basically wear tubeless cloth shoes at this time.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaofeng asked nonchalantly: "Dare to ask the little brother if he has been to the Jiangnan area recently?"
The young man originally had a very relaxed smile on his face, and when he heard him ask like this, his face was slightly stunned, but then he smiled again and said: "I don't know how the son could ask like this, I have been living here since my ancestors and grandfathers, and I have never been far away."
"Oh, that's the case......", Yang Xiaofeng said in a gentle voice: "My hometown is from the south, and I see that my little brother looks good, so I have this question."
Several people suddenly burst into laughter.
Lan Xiaorui smiled and said: "Big brother, what's wrong today, how do you climb relatives, I am also very kind, and I am a southerner, why haven't I seen you and me climbing relatives?"
Luo Qingxue interjected: "What kind of logic are you two doing, are you southerners who are good-looking?"
Yang Xiaofeng just smiled and said nothing.
Lan Xiaorui said proudly: "Of course, all of our men in Jiangnan are chic and handsome, you can know this by looking at the appearance of me and my eldest brother." As for our Jiangnan girls, it's even more so good-looking."
"Listening to you say that, our northern girls are not very good-looking"?
"You girls from the north, you're a little ......."
Luo Qingxue glared at him and asked coldly, "What are the girls in the north?"
"The girls in the north are a little ......", Lan Xiaorui was about to say something, when he suddenly heard Yang Xiaofeng cough twice loudly, and immediately reacted that Luo Qingxue was also a girl from the north, and was immediately startled, and hurriedly changed her words: "You girls in the north are not only as good-looking as fairies, but also bold and free-spirited, especially Qingxue You, who are definitely incomparable to our girls in the south of the Yangtze River."
"Can't compare, what you said is ambiguous, so is our northern girl good or bad"?
"Of course it's good, our southern girls are ashamed of themselves, and they can compare with you."
Luo Qingxue didn't want to quarrel with Lan Xiaorui anymore, so she said leisurely: "I want to call my sister."
Lan Xiaorui clenched his teeth, and only after half a day did five words pop out of his mouth, "Yes, Sister Qingxue."
Seriously, he really has the urge to go crazy now, but he is afraid that he will never be able to be in front of Qingxue in the future, no, it should be said that he can hold his head up in front of this sister.
Thinking about my previous thoughts on her......
Gee, what a mess this is.
As soon as the two of them stopped talking, Yang Xiaofeng immediately glanced at Luo Qingxue, and said with a meaningful smile: "Xiaolan, no wonder you like a girl from the north, it turns out that the girl from the north is so good in your heart!"
Lan Xiaorui felt a heat on his face, how could he not hear the meaning of his words, but he pretended not to understand, and teased: "Don't just talk about me, you yourself are not the same."
"What's the same"?
"Like me, don't you like a girl from the north?"
"Of course, didn't you say it all, the girl from the north is so good."
Yang Xiaofeng seemed to want Lan Xiaorui to blush again, and said seriously: "Actually, I should thank you for visualizing the northern girl in my heart." However, what you said is not very accurate, I absolutely admit that she looks as good as a fairy, free and easy, and it's okay, as for this boldness, where do you start, is there still that northern girl who likes to drink very much?
Luo Qingxue answered coldly: "You mean to say that I will learn to drink with you in the future"?
"I didn't mean that."
"Then what do you mean"?
Yang Xiaofeng didn't speak again.
"What do you mean by speaking clearly"?
Yang Xiaofeng completely closed his mouth.
"You're talking, what's the matter, dumb"?
Yang Xiaofeng's mouth was almost sewn up directly with needle and thread.
In this way, several people chatted while walking, and before they knew it, they had been walking for about half an hour.
"Whew...... , finally arrived at the ......", the young man who led the way breathed a sigh of relief, pointed to the front and said, "Three, that is where the treasure cave is located." If it's okay, I'll go back first."
