Reality and Games of Ancient Swords

The port of Jiangdu was very lively, and the group of them also disembarked.

Feng Qingxue stretched her waist, and said with a smile, "It's so fun to ride a boat!" As she spoke, she turned her hands behind her back, leaned her body slightly in front of Baili Tusu, and said with an enthusiastic smile on her face, "Su Su, this is the second time I have crossed the Yangtze River, and the first time I was shocked, such a big river! I heard that the sea is bigger than this, is it true?"

Baili Tusu: "..."

Xiangling folded her hands on her chest, turned her head to one side, with an angry expression on her face.

Fang Lansheng on the side had a sullen face and said, "Xiangling, don't be angry, can't I be wrong?"

Xiangling snorted, but ignored Fang Lansheng.

Fang Lansheng: "..." Hey hey, he made Xiangling angry QAQ

Hongyu stood beside Ouyang Shaogong, her right arm crossed her chest to support her left elbow, her brows were furrowed, and she said, "...I never imagined that one Yuheng would be involved in so many incidents."

Ouyang Shaogong nodded, and said: "That's right. I'm talking about alchemy and pharmacy, and counting swordsmanship is not worth mentioning. Now that I can get the help of Baili Shaoxia, I feel much more at ease." They said this All the way on the boat, he told Xie Yi, Hongyu, and Feng Qingxue all about Fanyunzhai and Yuheng again. An important task to say.After hearing what he said, Feng Qingxue and Hongyu would not stand idly by, and they were all willing to contribute their strength to help Ouyang Shaogong.

As for Xie Yi, he is a dying person, so this kind of matter can be left to the young people, and he still doesn't participate.Furthermore, Ji Yan would not agree to his participation in such a thing.

When they came to the market, Hongyu suddenly asked: "Could it be that there are other fragments of the jade horizontal when I came to Jiangdu this time?"

Ouyang Shaogong said: "There is a stranger in the city who I know, who is good at divination and prediction. It was she who instructed me to look for it near Qinchuan."

Fang Lansheng spread his hands slightly, and said, "That means we are going to find that person and ask him to divination the whereabouts of the other fragments? Then where can we find him?"

Ouyang Shaogong smiled slightly and said, "The northwest of Jiangdu City is full of flowers."

Hongyu covered her lips with a big sleeve and smiled lightly, saying: "Huamanlou, huh..." Unexpectedly, Ouyang Shaogong went to Huamanlou, Hongyu looked at Ji Yan and Xie Yi, and said: "It seems that we Everyone you want to see is in one place."

Ouyang Shaogong looked at the three of them, suddenly thought of something, and said with a smile, "So that's it, it seems that we are really destined, and the people who need to see are all in Huamanlou."

Xie Yi smiled lightly: "The so-called big hermit lives in the city, she has always been like this."

Fang Lansheng looked at them and scratched his head in puzzlement.

The group didn't stay long in the market, and soon went to Huamanlou.

Coming to the door of Huamanlou, Fang Lansheng felt ominous looking at this place.

This place looks like...

"Shao, Shaogong, this, this place...?" Fang Lansheng's mouth was already twitching.

Compared with Fang Lansheng's abnormality, the reactions of others were much more normal.Hongyu, Xie Yi and Ji Yan used to be frequent visitors to Huamanlou, and they are more familiar with every place here than others.Xiangling and Feng Qingxue had never been to a place like Huamanlou, so they didn't understand, they opened their eyes wide and looked at this place curiously.

At this time, Shi Shiran, a slightly gaudy-dressed woman, came over, flicked the silk in her hand, and said, "Hey~~ Why do you guys bring women here to have fun? Huamanlou doesn't do business during the day .”

Ouyang Shaogong took a few steps forward, folded his sleeves together to salute, and said: "I would like to ask this girl to inform you that Ouyang Shaogong is here to pay a visit to Jinniang."

The girl looked Ouyang Shaogong up and down, and when she saw that he was handsome and elegant, she felt a little teasing, and said, "This handsome brother knows our boss~ tsk tsk, no wonder... the boss loves a handsome man with a clear face like you." Brother, hee hee, you wait~~"

Ouyang Shaogong shook his head helplessly, and said: "I'm not..." Before she finished speaking, the woman stepped forward, pressed the silk handkerchief to Ouyang Shaogong's lips lightly, and said with a light smile: "Stop talking, I understand ~~" After finishing speaking, she gave a charming smile, turned around and left step by step with her waist twisted.

Ouyang Shaogong: "..."

Fang Lansheng pointed at the woman in front of him, and said tremblingly, "This, this, this... the gatehouse here is gaudy, and the women's words and deeds are frivolous. Could it be that this is the legendary place of fireworks and moonlight? Shao, how can you bring us here? Come to this kind of place?!"

Hongyu pursed her lips and smiled lightly.

Xie Yi also laughed and shook his head.

Ji Yan has been silent since she came to Huamanlou. She lowered her head and played with the long hair on her chest, thinking about what to say when she saw Jinniang later.

Ouyang Shaogong comforted Fang Lansheng, who was furious, and said, "Don't be impatient, you will know when you go in."

Fang Lansheng was already clasping his head and becoming mad: "Go in, go in? It's too late to go in!!?" As a scholar who has read a lot of poetry and books, his second sister has been holding his ears by his ears since he was a child, and he was strictly ordered not to be with the bastards in the academy. We go into this kind of place.

Xiangling turned to Ji Yan, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Yan, what is Fengyue place?"

Ji Yan patted Xiangling on the head and replied, "You don't need to know."

Xiangling nodded, and said 'oh' obediently.

The woman came back soon, she cast a wink at Ouyang Shaogong, and said, "Master Ouyang, the boss invites you in~" The voice was so delicate that Fang Lan had goose bumps all over her body.

Ouyang Shaogong folded his sleeves together and saluted again, saying, "Thank you, miss."

Seeing him being so serious, the woman couldn't help but chuckled: "Thank you? My family runs errands for you, and my heart is very sweet~~" After finishing speaking, she left on her own.

Fang Lansheng was very powerless, he drooped his shoulders, lowered his head, and asked again: "Shaogong, here...is there really someone you are looking for here?"

Ouyang Shaogong said: "Come with me and you will know." When everyone entered Huamanlou, they saw a woman in plain clothes bowing slightly to Ouyang Shaogong, and said: "Shaogong, Cuimeier just came to our building a few days ago, don't you?" I know Shaogong, but I have neglected you, so don't be offended."

Ouyang Shaogong shook his head, he didn't care about the rudeness of the girl with the emerald eyebrows, and said: "No, I didn't neglect, I came here suddenly. It would be quite inappropriate if that girl brought us in directly. "

Jin Niang smiled and said, "Shaogong is still so considerate." As she spoke, she looked at the people behind Ouyang Shaogong, and when she saw Hongyu, Xie Yi and Ji Yan, her eyes widened.

Walked over quickly, raised her hand, and pointed at Ji Yan behind Ouyang Shaogong with a smile on her face. Jin Niang was a little annoyed, and said, "Damn girl, you know to come back? And you two, run away together The Western Regions, one of them hasn’t appeared since he left?? They all look like dead people, and they don’t know how to go back to Huamanlou to see me for more than ten years!!”

Hongyu and Xie Yi had a trace of apology on their faces, they met Jinniang once, they were old acquaintances after all, but they never came to Jiangdu to visit her once in more than ten years.

One of the two bowed and the other bowed their hands, both apologetic.

Ji Yan came up from behind, looked inside Huamanlou, and asked, "It seems that I haven't been back for more than ten years, and you have taken care of this place very well, Jinniang."

Jinniang's eyes were slightly red, but her tone was still tough, and she said, "Hmph, I don't want to see whose place this is."

Ji Yan looked at Jinniang, looking at her who was not young, and couldn't help but think of her when they first met.

That year, she was only about fourteen years old, a flowery age.

Ji Yan slowly came to her, stretched out his arms to hug her, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm back, Jinniang."

Jinniang sniffed, not letting the thing that was spinning in her eyes fall off, she hugged Ji Yan back forcefully, and said: "It's been more than ten years since I left, do you plan to come back after I die next time?" ?”

Ji Yan let go of Jinniang, curled his mouth, and said, "How could it be? I will come to see you from time to time."

Jin Niang snorted coldly, and suddenly asked seriously: "What about him?"

Ji Yan slowly turned her head, set her gaze on Baili Tusu, and said, "Isn't this behind me?" Pointing at Baili Tusu, he said to Jinniang, "Look, he's right here."

Jin Niang followed her directions, and when she saw the boy's appearance clearly, she was really surprised.

"He, he is...?"

Ji Yan nodded, and said to Baili Tusu, who was obviously puzzled, "Xiaoxi, show Jinniang that piece of jade."

Baili Tusu nodded, and took out Yu Jue who had been hanging close to her body in her clothes.When she saw the jade, Jin Niang walked over excitedly and snatched the jade from Baili Tusu's hand. "Yes, it's this one, it's the one he's been wearing next to his body, and you found it." He said, looking at Ji Yan.

Except for Xie Yi and Hongyu who knew the reason, everyone looked at Jinniang and Ji Yan strangely.

However, there was another person who was different from the strange eyes of the others, his eyes were a bit dark, and when he saw Baili Tusu take out the jade, he clenched his hand hidden under his wide sleeves, usually Blunt fingernails dug into the palm.

The stinging pain spread instantly, but it failed to wake him up.

That jade... belonged to him, Ouyang Shaogong.

"No one will look for him except me..." Ji Yan smiled lightly, but there was a trace of sadness in that smile.

Jin Niang's expression was startled, and then, after looking at Baili Tusu with an unpredictable expression, she returned the jade in her hand to him. "Young master, please keep it."

Although Baili Tusu felt strange, he still nodded, and stuck Yujue on his neck to hide it.

Ji Yan glanced at Jinniang, and said: "His clothes tomb, I remember it is in the peach forest facing west of Huamanlou? I'll go and see..."

Jin Niang nodded and said, "... let's go."

Ji Yan left alone without saying anything to anyone.

Looking at the back of her leaving, Hongyu wanted to follow but was stopped by Xie Yi, saying: "Hongyu, let Ah Yan go there alone."

Hongyu opened her mouth, nodded after a while.

Ouyang Shaogong looked at Jinniang, and suddenly said: "It turns out that Miss Ji's old friend is Jinniang, it's really a predestined relationship."

Jin Niang said: "I didn't expect my old friend to be among the people brought by Shao Gong."

Ouyang Shaogong smiled faintly, and asked: "No wonder I'm curious, I don't know who Miss Ji and Jinniang are talking about? Why do you value Baili Shaoxia's Yujue so much?"

Jin Niang looked at Ouyang Shaogong, then at the other confused people, and after a while, she sighed softly: "...It's okay to tell you, it's all old things anyway... After all, the old things don't go away, Why don't new ones come..." Half-casting her eyes, thinking of the past, she closed her eyes and said softly: "... When I was young, there was a life-saving person, and that person was also the person I admired , It's a pity that the person he chose in the end was not me. That person's surname is Dongfang, and his single name is Qing. And Ji Yan is Dongfangqing's wife, the only love that the Ming media is marrying." When she said this, her eyes straightened It fell on Baili Tusu.

"The jade that this young master has been carrying with him is Ji Yan's gift to Dongfang Qing as a token of love. That man has never been willing to take it away, and has kept it with him until his deathbed..."
