Chapter Forty-Eight: Chaos (Fifth Month)

Meng Wei suddenly smiled, as if he knew the reason for what was happening in front of him, and said, "Miss has recognized the wrong person? Just a guard at Fort Duzun. ”

Hearing this, Concubine Shi Xuan doubted her judgment for a moment, after all, she had seen Meng Nao's suicide with her own eyes in Jingmuro Mountain, but she didn't see his body, this dilemma was really difficult to judge. Bowing her head and silently, Concubine Xuan suddenly saw the gold-inlaid jade round pendant on Meng's waist, which was so familiar.

"Huh. Concubine Xuan chuckled, looked up and said, "Really? ”

Meng Nao only felt that he was afraid that he had been recognized, and he wondered that there was a flaw there, and said perfunctorily: "It's okay, if Miss is okay, the villain will retire." After finishing speaking, he hurriedly left with the girl in his arms.

Shi Fei Xuan watched Meng Nao's figure disappear around the corner, her eyes were complicated, there was a trace of doubt, and more difficult to choose, and murmured: "Sure enough, it's you!"

Night.

Chengdu today is really prosperous, the lights are brilliant, the streets are illuminated by lanterns, the street comes and goes with a constant flow of people, there are merchants, farmers, scholars and martial arts people from Tiannan and Haibei, young men and women appreciate the lanterns on the street, and also carefully observe the passers-by, hoping to find their other half.

Duzun Fort is even more crowded, wave after wave of dignitaries and nobles intermittently entered, and the servants standing in front of the door are also extremely busy, while looking at the invitations of the visitors, while guiding the people to the central square, the manpower can be described as stretched. In order to alleviate the shortage of manpower, the salt dealers who often run around in the fort also rushed to the door to help, and Boss Xie was also among them, although there was a girl at home, but he followed Meng Nao to the square to watch the banquet, so he was not worried.

"Brother, there are so many people. The girl clutched her clothes tightly with both hands, like a little follower.

Meng Wei smiled and said: "This year is really prosperous, go, girl, are you hungry?" ”

"Lin Shuisheng!" a familiar voice sounded in his ears again.

Meng Zhi slapped his forehead with one hand, his face was full of reluctance, and said, "Grandma, what are you doing?"

Xie Nan saw Meng Nan's declining face, and suddenly became angry in his heart, and said, "What? Can't I call you?"

"Yes, yes!" Meng Wei hurriedly replied, but this aunt didn't agree to her last time, so she deducted half a month's salary.

"Hmph. Xie Nan turned his head, bent down to pick up the girl, and said softly: "Girl, is it okay to play with my sister? Your brother can't go. ”

The girl looked at Meng Nan with innocent dark eyes, turned her head to look at Xie Nan, and said in a crisp voice: "Okay." ”

Meng Wei was speechless for a moment, so he had to watch Xie Nan take the girl away, and he was afraid that something would happen, so he hurriedly said: "Miss, don't stay too far, remember to come back when you're done!"

"Alas. Watching Xie Nan lead the girl away, Meng Nan became alone again, and there was nothing fun to look around, so he found a nearby table and sat down, supporting his head with both hands, and watching the crowd coming and going.

"Ladies and gentlemen," suddenly a festive voice came from the center of the square, it was Xie Hui's son Xie Wenlong, "tonight's lantern festival is a lot more colorful than in previous years, and there are a lot of nobles who come and go! Therefore, we have invited Shi Qingxuan, a famous Xiao Yi who is famous all over the world! Moreover, one of the people present will go back to meet everyone Shi Qingxuan in person and listen to the music!"

Hearing this, the square suddenly exploded, and there were many discussions, Shi Qingxuan's name is famous, but no one has seen his true face, how can it not be attractive to have such an opportunity now?

"Master Xie Shaobao, I don't know how you chose it?"

Xie Wenlong said: "I don't know this, this condition was personally proposed by everyone in Qingxuan, so how to choose is also up to her." ”

When this person heard this, he hurriedly shouted: "Qingxuan, everyone, can you do it? I don't know how this person was selected tonight?"

A beautiful voice suddenly came out from the two-story pavilion, "In ancient times, there was an anecdote between Zhongzi and Yu Boya, which has been passed down through the ages, and it is a high mountain and flowing water. Since I am Xiao Yi, I naturally want to find someone who can understand my repertoire. So, I'm going to play a piece here, and you can describe me in any word, and if you guess correctly, you can hear me play it yourself. ”

There was a lot of people in the square again, and one person said: "It's so simple, it must be me! I think that at the beginning, when I was in the mansion of Wang Bo in Dongping County, I heard the sound of Qingxuan's flute. The other retorted, "yes, who here hasn't heard of it?" "Well, that's right." The man said: "Since Xiao Yi must be a person who understands music, what do you know as a martial artist?" "That's not necessarily, what if I happen to guess correctly?" "Hmph, think beautifully." ”

On the side of the square, Xu Ziling sat at the table and watched the lively crowd around him silently.

"Alas, I said Ziling. What has happened to you these days? Why don't you speak? A magnetic male voice sounded next to him, dressed in white, dressed like Confucianism, and holding a folding fan in his hand, it was Hou Xibai.

Hou Xibai was previously ordered by his master to assassinate Kou and Xu, but the first time he was interrupted by Feng Qingyang, who was dressed as a monk, and the subsequent assassinations were unsuccessful, but later he found out that it was a brother from a different sect who was falsely passing on the teacher's orders, and the three turned enemies into friends. Hou Xibai was originally from Bashu, Sichuan, and Chengdu, so how could he not come to this kind of conference? A few days ago, he met Xu Ziling on the street, and he was accompanied by him.

"Alas. Xu Ziling lowered his head and sighed without speaking.

Hou Xibai hurriedly said: "You are talking! What's the matter? Brother Ziling is not a sentimental person!"

This time, Xu Ziling raised his head and responded: "It's okay, I just want Kou Zhong." ”

"Kou Zhong?" Hou Xibai suddenly said in a strange voice, "I'm afraid it's the wife at home!"

Xu Zilingteng's face turned red, and he reached out to hold Hou Xibai's mouth and said, "What nonsense?"

"Hmm. Hou Xibai vigorously moved Xu Ziling's hands away and said, "Then you don't want to? ”

Xu Ziling immediately blew his beard and glared: "You dare!"

"Haha, Brother Ziling, don't take it seriously. Hou Xibai changed his words, "You say, who can be selected?" You and Shi Qingxuan are extremely familiar. ”

Xu Ziling said: "You think too much, it's definitely not me, and it's not you!"

"Oh, who's that?"

Xu Ziling's face darkened again, and said, "Don't you know if you look at it?"

Hou Xibai wanted to say more, but suddenly, "woo, woo" came from the second-floor attic, Hou Xibai suddenly didn't speak, listened carefully, and the square suddenly quieted down.

When I first heard this song, everyone in the square only felt as if ****** was above the vast miao, there were no waves for thousands of miles, and then the tide in the distance slowly pushed closer, gradually getting closer and faster. It was calm, and everyone couldn't help but close their eyes and be there. Suddenly, the wind changes, the sea is turbulent, the white waves are even the mountains, like a huge wave, and the tide is like a fish jumping whale floating, constantly changing, and then the wind on the sea is howling and the gulls are flying, and a burst has gathered still, "Peng" Dozens of feet of waves rise to the sky, such as water monsters, the demons make the tide, everyone's face also changed, as if there is really a huge wave coming, suddenly calm but there is a faint cold lurking, and then the sea is like being boiled, steaming, exploding, so flat and bombed, extremely changeable, and finally the tide slowly recedes level like a mirror, but the bottom of the sea makes people feel that the undercurrent is turbulent, it seems that it is not over.

Meng Xuan sat on the table and was originally drowsy, but at this moment he felt that this song was so familiar, and in a daze, he saw a person with a clear appearance, tall and thin, and a cool demeanor, Xiao Shuxuan, who was like a god, wearing a green coat and a square scarf of the same color, and a person who looked like a scribe, standing alone on the edge of a lonely island, holding Yu Xiao and playing gently.

"Who are you?"

The scribe suddenly turned his head to look at Meng Yuan, and smiled lightly with the pity of the elders, as if vaguely saying, "Shake, you know. ”

Meng Nao was suddenly shocked, instantly sobered up, and blurted out, "Master!"

Another world that is not much further away from here.

On a lonely island, an old man with white hair like a stone sat on a stone by the sea, motionless, like a dead man, when a sentence suddenly came from his ear, "Master!"

The old man opened his eyes suddenly, and a sharp sword seemed to flash in his eyes, and then slowly lowered his eyes, and his dry lips said vaguely: "Shake." ”

When Meng Foot crossed the Condor Shooting, the body of the baby appeared, and was just married Huang Yaoshi, Feng Heng picked up, at that time there was a big eagle soaring, it can be described as spectacular, it was named "Huang Shao".

Datang, Sichuan Duzun Fort.

Shi Qingxuan's flute has stopped.

Meng Nao stood alone in front of the table, banging his head vigorously, and said bitterly: "What is it? What is it? What have I forgotten? It seems to be an important thing. ”
