Chapter 5019: The Old Capital's Troubles
"Mom, what the hell?" Shun Yun also stood up, Ge Yao's little face turned even more frightened, and said in a trembling voice: "I heard it too, but I was next to Shun Yun, and I thought it was Lian Duel who asked, Lian Duel, isn't it really you?"
"It's not. Lian Duel's gaze had recovered to Leng Yi, holding the soul silver sword, and said coldly: "Since there are no ghosts, then only people pretend to be ghosts!
Lian Duel raised his voice, as if announcing to someone in the dark, and suddenly, the eyes of Lian Duel, Shun Yun and Ge Yao were aimed at the window lattice leading to the large terrace at the same time, only to see a half-cut black shadow slowly emerging from the window paper......
Yun Geyao slept for a while, freshened up a little, her face was full of powder, and her cheeks were like snow, which made Shunyun stunned for a while.
Yun Geyao, together with Lian Du and Shunyun, came to the second floor, and saw more than a dozen housekeepers and maidservants stepping on stools, removing the smoky and gray curtains to prepare for washing.
Lian Duan glanced at it, and there was a girl with oblique sideburns holding a broom, her head buried low, moving step by step, Liuhai covered half of her cheeks, and her white and thin neck was flushed with strips of redness.
Lian Jue walked over and asked softly, "Girl, do you want to help?"
"Ahh
Lian Du raised his chin, took out a small bag of oiled paper, handed it to the girl, and whispered, "Rub this, it can melt away the bruises." ”
The girl's shoulders trembled, her eyes were instantly watery, soaked in black pupils and flashing, she subconsciously covered her neckline, her fingertips swept the red finger marks on her neck, nodded cowardly, and took the medicine bag.
"If you need help with anything else, tell us any of them, okay?" Lian Duan whispered to the girl and pointed to Shun Yun and Yun Geyao.
The girl bit her lip all of a sudden, frowned, lowered her head, and walked away without saying a word.
"Hey, didn't you say that you came to find Master Du, why did you start to show mercy?" Yun Geyao narrowed his eyes and glared at Lian Duel.
"She's just.... Yesterday's girl?" Shun Yun reacted, and the gaze that looked at the girl's back instantly turned into sympathy.
"Which one?ah!" Yun Geyao has pestered Shun Yun to tell the whole story of last night's night detective, and today I saw this girl with my own eyes, Ge Yaodai raised her eyebrows, clutched her pink fist and said: "Don't be an old-faced old man, how can he do such a thing! That girl is about the same age as Dadu just now! Liandu, Shunyun, you two can't sit idly by!"
"Don't worry. Lian Jue and Shun Yun motioned to Yun Geyao to cheer up, and he was about to go to see Lao Du, so he couldn't tear his face all at once.
"Eh, you guys, have you had breakfast?" Bi Xiaotian carried a rag and trotted towards Lian Duel, "Do you want to see the master?" Don't worry, the master is fine, he didn't wake up when something like that happened last night, and the smoke was cleared this morning, and when we talk to him, he will know what's going on!"
"Can you really fall asleep, doesn't your conscience hurt!" Yun Geyao rolled her eyes.
"Little sister, did I say the wrong thing? My name is Bi Xiaotian, a few years older than you......" Bi Xiaotian didn't talk to Ge Yao yesterday, and now he seizes the opportunity and always wants to say a few more words.
"Got it!" Ge Yao was angry, glanced at Xiao Tian, and muttered: "When that kind of thing happens under your noses, no one comes out to take care of it, a raccoon dog!"
"Sudden fire, oh no, smoking, it's not something we could have known in advance, little sister. Xiao Tian frowned and scratched the back of his head.
Knowing that Ge Yao was a girl with a true temperament, she was afraid that she would leak her mouth, so Lian Du and Shun Yun hurriedly pushed her away, and the little brother of the family took the three of them to the reception room of the old capital.
I saw the fat body of the old man lying on a bearskin chaise longe, two cardamom little maids squatting on his legs and beating their legs, a girl in his prime rubbing his shoulders behind him, and a sixteen or seventeen little girl opposite him, sitting in front of the tea table boiling water and making tea.
"Coming?" the old man squinted and glanced at him, but his eyelids did not lift.
Lian Du hummed and asked, "I heard that there was a lot of smoke on the second floor yesterday, and the old man didn't get hurt, right?"
"No!" the old man turned over lazily, grabbed the girl's finger and pressed it on his temple, and commanded: "Rub this! I slept uncomfortably last night, and my head was dizzy, and I guess I was smoky." ”
The three of them really couldn't stand this style, so they went straight to the point and said: "The three of us are not here to hang out, but to find someone, Master Du, can you help us get permission to other places in the Holy River Valley?"
"Permissions from other places?" Master Du rubbed his hands on the recliner, crossed his hands on his chest, and sneered: "This holy river basin is full of dragons and tigers, and the authority of each sky mirror corresponds to one of the forces, and these forces add up to almost a hundred! Where do you want to obtain permission?"
Looking at the demeanor of the old capital, it doesn't seem to be alarmist, even the determination to chuckle, just obtaining permission is a problem, and it is even more difficult to find the little-known Mr. Zixu, but the master has explained, only secret investigation, not open visit.
Lian Duel's eyes rolled, and he smiled faintly: "The three of us have just arrived, and we don't know as much about the Holy River Valley as Master Du, so I hope Master Du can help, as for the specific permissions of which places, I want to ask the Hanging River Post Station which places have obtained permissions, so that we can get a little light." ”
The old man was stunned, he didn't expect Lian Du to ask like this, the old man turned his neck uncomfortably, got up from the recliner, walked around the room a few times, stopped in front of the window and looked, and said with a smile: "What authority does the Hanging River Post Station have, it is my ability, what does it have to do with you? Why should I help you?"
"You-" Shun Yun was angry, it seems that this half-old fat guy really didn't take Granny Suoluo's words to heart.
"Shhhh Lian Du gently tugged on Shunyun's sleeve, Master Du turned his head and stared at the three of them with a smile, "It's not that there is no room for turning, we are all people of Hangchuan, and there are things to discuss, but I said in front, I am not a broad-minded, benevolent person, especially pay attention to courtesy, want me to help you, you also help me first, right?"
"What do you want us to do?" said Lian Du wanted to see what kind of fart this old man was going to put on.
"You look at the rockery in my garden, it is beautiful enough and magnificent enough, but I have been instructed by someone to say that this rockery lacks a little bit of the steepness and murderous aura of the real peak, so it cannot be perfect. Lao Lei has been fighting for many years, you two must have learned some skills from him, right?" Lao Du smiled: "If you two can build this rockery for me horizontally and look at it as a peak on the side of the ridge, steep and majestic, like a moat, I will give you all my permissions, how about it?"
