The mountains and rivers are quiet and broad

When Chen Ke and Xu Qingfeng were walking hand in hand, Guan Hongfeng and Zuo Ming were on another street not far away.

"It's very lively." Guan Hongfeng turned his head to look at Zuo Ming, the lights reflected each other, but Zuo Ming's face was very clear.

It's rare to walk on the street so gracefully, and it's even rarer to have such a relaxing moment, Zuo Ming is not used to it.

"En." Responding in a low voice, Zuo Ming looked around curiously, perhaps in a happy mood, Zuo Ming also had crooked eyebrows, those peach blossom eyes, faintly overflowing with amorous feelings.

"Do you want to buy something? Candied haws? Crunchy candy? Ah, there are also masks sold." Guan Hongfeng suggested enthusiastically.

Zuo Ming felt a little disgusted, "It's not a child."

"Hehe, it's rare." Guan Hongfeng rubbed his nose, trying to find another topic.

"Let's go back after a while..." Zuo Ming looked towards the other side of the street, and said worriedly: "The prince is only following a few people."

"Okay." Although a little regretful, Guan Hongfeng still agreed.

The crowd was bustling, and the lights of the parade had stopped, stopping in front of the shops of various merchants.

But the flow of people did not decrease. On the contrary, more and more people came to the street, and some women even boldly took to the street.

"There are more and more people." Guan Hongfeng looked at the hurried pace of the crowd, "They all went there."

Guan Hongfeng hurriedly stopped passers-by to ask questions, only to realize that the lantern parade was only the beginning of the night show, and now there will be a show on West Street.

"What program?"

"Hey, hey! It's those corners of West Street! My brother, let's not talk too much. If you go late, there is no good seat. If you are curious, you can see it for yourself!"

"Thank you very much!" Cupped his hands to thank, and let the passer-by go, Guan Hongfeng suggested: "Prince and Mr. Xu may also go there, let's go too."

Zuo Ming has always been reticent, but now he just nodded his head in agreement.

The two went to West Street, and sure enough, the passers-by walked towards West Street happily. From the discussion between words, we can know that West Street in Zhuozhou City was originally a place for fun, but every Daqing, For the sake of business and appearance, each family will send their top cards to show up in Dou Yi.

Even if you are not a merchant on West Street, you can still fight. The passers-by look excited, and it seems that tonight is worth looking forward to.

Approaching the West Street, the crowd became even more crowded, surrounded by a large stage in the middle of the street, cheers and noises could be heard endlessly.

Not liking such a noisy atmosphere, Zuo Ming frowned, but at this moment, the sound of music came, and the crowd was silent for two seconds, then became crazier and crowded forward.

Being pushed forward, Zuo Ming's face became colder and colder, and he was about to get angry. He turned his head and found that Guan Hongfeng was also squeezed a few steps away.

Feeling depressed, the music stopped at this time, and then the dense drumming sounded, the crowd burst into cheers, and a woman in red came out in the eyes.

People around stood on tiptoes and stretched their necks to look, but Zuo Ming shrank his neck, afraid that the saliva of the people next to him would spray him.

Suddenly a hand reached out and grabbed Zuo Ming's arm—Guan Hongfeng squeezed to Zuo Ming's side, pulled him closer, and almost retreated against the crowd with Zuo Ming in his arms.

Finally breaking free from the cramped carnival, Zuo Ming let out a long sigh of relief.

"Go to the high places on both sides, so many people don't know who the prince or Mr. Xu are." Guan Hongfeng said.

Zuo Ming naturally agreed, walked both sides and then stopped, touched his body, his expression slowly became dignified.

"how?"

Zuo Ming was a little depressed: "My jade pendant fell off."

Zuo Ming was also wearing casual clothes today, with a jade pendant hanging around his waist, and now only the rope to tie the jade pendant was left dangling on the leather belt, the jade pendant might have been squeezed out just now.

"I'll look for it." Guan Hongfeng turned around to go back, but Zuo Ming hurriedly held him back.

"Don't look for it, it might have been taken away by Xiao Xiaoshun."

"Do you feel that you are being shunned?" Guan Hongfeng smiled, "You should still be where you are, waiting for me here."

After finishing speaking, Guan Hongfeng sneaked into the crowd on his own, and he couldn't see anyone at once.

Before he could stop Guan Hongfeng, Zuo Ming had no choice but to stay where he was.The stage cannot be seen clearly from this place, and the change of the program can only be guessed from the change of music and the cheers of the crowd.

Guan Hongfeng stooped to search in the crowd.

Although Zuo Ming didn't say anything, Guan Hongfeng knew that the jade pendant was not a high-quality item. The quality of the jade was ordinary, the lines were ordinary, and the carving was also ordinary. But it seemed that it was left to him by Zuo Ming's family, and Zuo Ming carried it all year round.

Pushing aside the crowd, and smiling apologetically at people's curious, dissatisfied or astonished gazes, Guan Hongfeng carefully looked for them bit by bit.

Fortunately, the jade pendant was right where Zuo Ming stood just now.Picking up the jade pendant, Guan Hongfeng sighed, wiped the jade pendant with his sleeve, and put it in his hand carefully.Afraid that Zuo Ming would be in a hurry, Guan Hongfeng hurriedly squeezed through the crowd and went out again.

Zuo Ming was still standing there.The lantern in the shop next to it is Tianwen's favorite tiger, Zuo Ming is looking at the lantern boredly, the warm orange light falls on him, falls on his usually expressionless face, falls into his plain eyes.

Behind Guan Hongfeng was the boiling crowd, but there seemed to be a barrier in front of him. Behind the barrier, Zuo Ming stood alone on the other side of the quiet world.

—The man was in the dimly lit place.Guan Hongfeng unconsciously thought of this.

Sensing Guan Hongfeng approaching, Zuo Ming turned around, and there was a wave in his plain eyes, "Did you find it?"

Suddenly, Guan Hongfeng clenched his palms tightly, hid the jade pendant he found, and said with a guilty conscience: "I didn't find it..."

Zuo Ming showed a somewhat disappointed expression, "It might have been picked up by someone."

"Hmm." Guan Hongfeng seemed to have just realized what he said, and he could still feel the jade pendant in his palm was burning, but the words had already been spoken, and he didn't know how to take them back.

The two were facing each other in silence, and suddenly there was a shout: "Elder brother!"

The voice sounded familiar, Guan Hongfeng looked in the direction of the voice, and it turned out to be Su Libai.

"Abai?"

"Eldest brother!" Su Libai ran closer with joy on his face: "I look like you from a distance, it really is!"

Su Libai approached, still wearing the usual white clothes, but there was a lot of dust on the clothes, looking a little embarrassed.After saying hello to Zuo Ming, before they could ask, Su Libai began to chatter by himself.

"I came with the second senior brother. We had agreed to go further west. Knowing that you were going to Juyan River, we wanted to meet you there, but the second senior brother said, "We agreed, but it's not with you." agreed". "

Su Libai vividly imitated the tone and expression of a laugh, "Then shake me off and leave, don't tell me you're angry!"

Guan Hongfeng laughed, his sword eyebrows raised, his brows widened, and his laughter was still so hearty: "But you still followed him, didn't you?"

Su Libai raised his head triumphantly when he heard the words, "That's natural!"

"What about others?"

"I don't know." Su Libai shrugged, "It's gone. Zhuozhou is so lively today, I was playing around for a while, and then I lost it. I think I must be having a good time. I asked passers-by in Zhuozhou, just let me go." Come to the west of the city, and I will see you in the end."

Su Libai laughed, showing two canine teeth, "Anyway, I can find the second senior brother with you."

But Zuo Ming asked him: "Did you come to Zhuozhou on purpose or just passing by?"

Going west from Linjiang Town, Zhuozhou has spared the way, Zuo Ming didn't think that a laugh would come here for no reason, there must be something that attracted a laugh.Before making contact, there might be clues from the Devil's Cult.

Knowing what Zuo Ming asked, Su Libai didn't hide anything, and said everything he knew: "Didn't you say that the Devil's Cult was looking for that idiot Xu earlier? But it's not, the Devil's Cult is looking for something."

Guan Hongfeng and Zuo Ming looked at each other, they were clear about this, and even spent a lot of effort to find the relevant information and whereabouts of the stone of life and death, but they got very little.

"That kind of thing is called the Life and Death Stone..." Su Libai went on talking to himself: "This stone is said to have supernatural powers. It is an extraterrestrial object that can bring the dead back to life! And, now this stone is in Zhuozhou, in Qinghua City. in the hands of the chamber of commerce."

Guan Hongfeng's expression was serious, and he hurriedly asked Su Libai to talk more carefully, but Su Libai scratched his head in embarrassment. really do not know.

"Uh, I just heard about the "Blue and White Chamber of Commerce" and the "auction". "

"Based on this, it is determined that the Stone of Life and Death is in the hands of the Blue and White Chamber of Commerce?" Guan Hongfeng disagreed, but the news given by Xiaobie earlier said that the Stone of Life and Death was in the hands of a beggar.

"I didn't just guess casually!"

Su Libai was anxious to defend himself, "Don't say anything else, I know about the auction of the Blue and White Chamber of Commerce!"

The so-called auction of the Blue and White Chamber of Commerce is an extremely mysterious underground transaction among the Jianghu population.

All kinds of things can be circulated here, as long as you want, as long as someone wants it-it is never limited to item transactions, from gold and silver jewelry, calligraphy and painting works, to drugs and poisons, there are also living things such as strange or precious pets, and even living things. Human transaction——

Minions and beauty transactions are packaged in a more advanced way. Naturally, people from all walks of life love this advanced level. The owner can use his own standards to define the price and transaction method of the item. The commodity can be a thing or a person, tangible or intangible, and the buyer can Use money, things, life, tangible and intangible things to get what you want.

"Oh, it's hard for you to understand when I say that, but you all know things like blood spirit beads and white foxes with different eyes that have caused a lot of trouble, right? It’s not surprising that it appears in the Blue and White Society.”

Both Guan Hongfeng and Zuo Ming were speechless. After talking for a long time, it turned out that it was just Su Libai's guess.

"A laugh near here?"

Guan Hongfeng looked at the crowd, and there were already countless people on the stage. At this time, it was a singing girl playing the piano and singing a cappella on the stage. Hearing it from a distance, the singing was indeed moving.

"Here..."

"How to find him?"

"It goes without saying, go ask where is the most beautiful oiran, and you will know." Su Libai smiled slyly.
