The Beacon of Kyushu

Chapter 74 Cutting Stranger Things, Blood Covering Eyes, Making New Friends, Drunken Heartstrings ([-])

As soon as the three of them left, Wan Jianfeng opened his eyes, sat up slowly, and opened his mouth to spit out all the wine he had just drank.Then he looked down at Murong Yunyao beside him, seeing her eyes closed tightly, as if she was asleep, he couldn't help laughing and said: "This little witch's grandfather is said to be a master of poisoning, but she doesn't even know the heart-changing pot. With her knowledge, she dares to venture into the rivers and lakes by herself, she is really daring! Don't be afraid that one day she will be plotted by someone, and she will rape first and then kill?"

As Wan Jianfeng said, he looked around the room and saw a basin not far away, which was half filled with clean water.He hurriedly tiptoed to the water basin, scooped up a handful of water with both hands, splashed it on Murong Yunyao's face, and softly called out: "Little witch, wake up, I'll kiss you if you don't wake up again!"

Before he finished speaking, he received a clear and loud slap on the cheek.Immediately afterwards, Murong Yunyao sat up slowly, and while rubbing her temples, she said: "You beggar, I warn you, if you dare to rape me while this girl is asleep, be careful... Be careful of this girl..."

Wan Jianfeng said: "Okay, I know, isn't it just kicking the bastard into the river to feed the bastard. But don't think about it, this young man is so handsome, how could the bastard have the heart to eat me?"

Murong Yunyao suddenly seemed to remember something, and hurriedly asked: "Stinky beggar, I remembered that I only drank two glasses of wine just now, why did I get so drunk that I passed out? This girl usually doesn't drink so badly!"

Wan Jianfeng said: "You, you don't even know the Zhuanxin Pot, and you wandered the rivers and lakes alone, do you think your life is too long, don't you? You don’t know if you hurt yourself!”

Murong Yunyao was puzzled and said: "How did you find out that it's from the Changing Heart Pot?"

Wan Jianfeng explained: "It's not easy? First of all, the general flagon is not as wide as it is. Too wide a flagon not only costs materials, but also costs the owner's wine. It is not worthwhile for both buyers and sellers. Secondly Generally, the jugs of large households are made of silver to prove that the wine is non-toxic, but the jugs here are made of jade, which is probably trying to hide something. The most important thing is of course the boss The way of pouring wine is generally not necessary to hold the bottom of the jug when it is just full of wine, and he uses different hands twice before and after. Is there someone who is right-handed one second and becomes right-handed the next second? Are you left-handed?"

Murong Yunyao listened to Wan Jianfeng's analysis in a reasonable manner, and she felt like an old Jianghu teaching the juniors. She laughed dumbly and said: "Haha, it seems that being a drunkard is good, at least not afraid of others poisoning the wine!"

Wan Jianfeng proudly said: "Isn't that so, this young hero was poisoned three times within a year, and ordinary people would lose half their lives if they didn't die. Look at me, young hero, still alive and well, A good man!"

Murong Yunyao didn't seem to pay attention to what Wan Jianfeng was talking about, but fell into deep thought.After a long while, she asked, "Stinky beggar, why do I feel that this Zhao Dezhao is not as simple as his younger brother Zhao Defang, as if there is something in his house that we are afraid of knowing?"

Wan Jianfeng said affirmatively: "It's not as if, but for sure! If there is no ulterior matter in his house, I would rather take his surname!" He got off the bed, walked slowly to the door, lifted his With a slight push of the hand, the door did not move at all.

Seeing this, Murong Yunyao asked, "What's wrong? Is the door locked?"

Wan Jianfeng nodded and said: "It doesn't matter if the door is locked, I'm worried that even the windows are locked, then we won't be able to get out at all!"

Murong Yunyao also got out of bed, and gently pushed the window beside the bed, but after pushing it, it did not move at all.She became more and more anxious, raising her palm to break the window lattice and break the big lock on the window.

But Wan Jianfeng hurriedly stopped her and said: "Don't! If there is too much noise, the servants in the mansion will be attracted. Not only can we not go out to find out, but we have to pay for the lock. Their family has a big business, if they use a golden lock , silver locks and so on, even if we sell ourselves, we won’t be able to afford it!”

Murong Yunyao said helplessly: "Then what can you do? We can't just stay like this all night and be kept in the dark by Zhao Dezhao, right?"

Wan Jianfeng smiled confidently, took out a short piece of iron wire from his arms, and said, "The young hero was locked in the warehouse by Cao Guangshi last time. At that time, I thought it would be great if I carried a wire with me. So as soon as I left the five states Hell, the first thing I did was to set up a wire so that no matter what lock I use in the future, I won't be able to trap me anymore!"

Murong Yunyao also laughed, "Haha, when my father died, this girl was kicked out of the house. She was hungry, cold and penniless. She also stole things a few times, but she was always suffering from the fact that she couldn't slip through the door and pick the lock. As a result, you often fail. I didn’t expect that you can not only taste wine, but also fight, and you can even pick locks. This girl really underestimated you before!”

Wan Jianfeng forcefully pushed the door open a little, put the iron wire into the lock cylinder, and proudly said: "That's right, I don't even look at who this young hero is! If I don't even know how to do this, I'm afraid I would have starved to death ten years ago!"

As soon as his words fell, the lock on the door was unlocked, and it fell to the ground with a soft sound.Wan Jianfeng pushed open the door, seeing that the noise did not attract the servants in the mansion, he hurriedly waved to Murong Yunyao, and said: "Everything is normal, come out with me!"

Murong Yunyao followed out according to the words, identified the direction, pointed to the east and said, "I remember that Zhao Dezhao's room seems to be over there." She said, sneaking around, hiding in the shadow of the courtyard wall, and quickly walked to the east .

Wan Jianfeng nodded in satisfaction, and secretly said, "Although this little witch is not experienced enough in the world, her lightness skills are worthy of keeping pace with this young hero. Besides, she has a good sense of direction, so she can be regarded as a pretty good girl." Help." He thought about following Murong Yunyao closely, and walked cautiously in the direction of Zhao Dezhao's residence.

It took them a long time to get close to the courtyard where Zhao Dezhao lived.Murong Yunyao was the first to turn over the high courtyard wall with a point of toe, Wan Jianfeng followed closely behind and turned over without any effort.

As soon as they climbed over the courtyard wall, Wan Jianfeng was stunned by the scene in front of him, and Murong Yunyao almost exclaimed.I saw that the door of the main hall was open, Zhao Dezhao was leaning on a chair, his face sinking like water, and there were two people standing in front of him, as if they were discussing something.One of these two is an old man in a green robe, like an old fortune-teller, and the other is a girl in a sea-blue dress. The girl's facial features are very similar to Murong Yunyao's, but she is even more glamorous , also more and more amazingly heroic and murderous.

When Murong Yunyao saw this girl, she suddenly remembered the scene in Qingping County a few months ago, when Jiang Shan mistook herself for the Priest of Chaos Cult.Murong Yunyao only thought that this was just Jiang Shan trying to get close to her and using her as an excuse, but when she saw the girl in the hall today, she felt that everything was not as simple as she imagined.

Wan Jianfeng pulled Murong Yunyao's sleeve, and the two hid behind a tall willow tree, listening carefully to the movement inside.But after listening for a while, they were all disappointed to find that both the girl and the old man seemed to be deaf-mute, unable to speak a word at all.

The young girl expresses her thoughts through sign language, while the old man expresses his intentions through writing. In order to communicate with the two, Zhao Dezhao can only write while gesticulating.Wan Jianfeng and Murong Yunyao looked at it for a long time, but they felt at a loss, not to mention finding out the whole story, it was quite difficult to even understand one or two meanings in it.

After a while, Zhao Dezhao gestured to the girl, and the girl returned his gestures, and then slowly exited the room.Wan Jianfeng still didn't see a clue, Murong Yunyao also half understood, and just wanted to speak.Wan Jianfeng covered Murong Yunyao's mouth tightly with his hands, preventing her from making any more noise.

As soon as the girl left, the old man's expression became extremely mysterious, and he quickly wrote something on the sand table.Wan Jianfeng and Murong Yunyao were still some distance away from the main room, so they couldn't hear what the old man was writing at all. They could only hear Zhao Dezhao's involuntary murmur after seeing the traces left on the sand table.The words seemed to mention Zhao Guangyi, Gaolianghe, Brother Yeluxiu and other seemingly unrelated names.After a while, he suddenly mentioned another name, and this time completely attracted Murong Yunyao's attention, because he was not referring to someone else, but Yun Zixiao!

Murong Yunyao felt that it was definitely not that simple, and subconsciously approached the main room. Wan Jianfeng hurriedly grabbed her, pulled her sleeves and turned over the courtyard wall.As soon as the two of them landed, Murong Yunyao complained in a low voice: "Stinky beggar, why didn't you hear me clearly about such an important matter? If they have any conspiracy, wouldn't we be deceived for the rest of our lives?" In the drum?"

Wan Jianfeng pulled her and ran a long distance before he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "That old man is a peerless expert just now, if we are discovered by him, I'm afraid we don't even know how we died, and we don't know where Meng is." It's important!"

Murong Yunyao said confidently: "Whoever he is is a top expert, a peerless expert, all of them are braised pork knuckles in front of this girl! Come and eat one, come two and eat a pair! If you don't dare to listen, go back alone, Ben The girl must understand!"

Wan Jianfeng smiled and said: "Although we didn't fully understand what they were talking about, we can connect the few words we understand, and we can basically confirm that they are talking about the state affairs between Song and Liao, and the most important thing is The location is the Gaoliang River near Youzhou. Instead of climbing the walls in a sneaky way here, we might as well go to the Gaoliang River to find out in person, which is not only safer but also has a more comprehensive understanding."

Murong Yunyao nodded vigorously, and said: "I am worried about brother Pingzhong, and I am also afraid that he will be harmed by the Chaos Sect. Since the Chaos Sect will have plots in the Gaoliang River area, we might as well go there first to find out, and then go to Yongzhou It shouldn't be too late."

As she spoke, she wanted to rush to Yongzhou overnight, but Wan Jianfeng quickly grabbed her and said, "Little witch, can you use your brain before doing things in the future, and don't shout and run around when you get excited?"

Murong Yunyao was puzzled: "If we don't leave now, should we stay and sleep?"

Wan Jianfeng nodded and said: "That's right, what we should do now is to get a good night's sleep, firstly, it can lower their vigilance, secondly, this young hero is really sleepy, if we don't sleep well, tomorrow You are not the only one who is messed up!"

As he said that, he really let out a sigh of relief, and walked lazily towards Yiyuan Pavilion, Murong Yunyao sighed helplessly, and had no choice but to follow him back to his residence.Fortunately, the mansion did not send special personnel to guard them, and the whereabouts of the two were never revealed. But for the sake of safety, after Wan Jianfeng entered the main room, he locked the door again, as if nothing had happened.

Then Wan Jianfeng smiled at Murong Yunyao and said, "Little witch, go to bed."

Murong Yunyao grabbed Wan Jianfeng's ear, and said angrily: "Smelly beggar, who wants to sleep with you! Even if they found out this girl and beat her to death, she wouldn't sleep with you!"

Wan Jianfeng sat on the chair in front of the window, breathed out, and said, "Who said I'm going to sleep with you? You go to bed honestly. It's enough for me to stay here for one night. We'll have another one tomorrow morning." Hurry up."

"Oh." Murong Yunyao responded, and lay on the bed as promised. She glanced at Wan Jianfeng, and suddenly couldn't bear it, so she had to lean in to make a space.Pointing with his hand, he said, "You stinky beggar, go to bed and sleep, you will be given a discount during the special period!"

Wan Jianfeng shook his head, didn't say much, closed his eyes and actually fell asleep on the chair.Seeing this, Murong Yunyao felt a little complicated, she felt a burst of joy, but also inexplicably lost, but she had been exhausted from traveling and traveling for days, and she was already exhausted, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Wan Jianfeng woke up before dawn.The first thing he did after waking up was not drinking, not practicing kung fu, nor waking Murong Yunyao, but instinctively walked to the door and stretched out his hand to push the door.The lock on the door had been unlocked at some point, he only pushed lightly, and the door opened a gap, and a burst of fresh air rushed in.

Wan Jianfeng took a few deep breaths, turned around and wanted to wake Murong Yunyao up.However, she found that Murong Yunyao had woken up at some point, her eyes were staring at herself silently, as if she had a thousand words to tell her, and she seemed unhappy because she was disturbed because she didn't wake up.

After a while, she finally opened her mouth and said, "You beggar, we should go."

She turned over and got out of bed, tidied up briefly, and went out of the room first.Seeing this, Wan Jianfeng hurriedly followed behind her, and reminded him: "Little witch, we can't just leave like this, Zhao Dezhao will get suspicious if we leave without saying goodbye!"

Murong Yunyao paused, turned her head to look at Wan Jianfeng, "You are so wordy!" She subconsciously turned to the side as she spoke, and walked towards Zhao Dezhao's yard.Wan Jianfeng sighed slightly, and said with a smile, "Oh, this little witch."

With the experience of last night, the two were already familiar with it, and they arrived in front of Zhao Dezhao's courtyard in a short while, and saw the old manager walking out of the courtyard head-on.When the boss saw the two of them, his face was slightly embarrassed, but he still walked over with a smile on his face and said, "You two, did you sleep well last night?"

Wan Jianfeng sighed in frustration, "Oh, the wine in your mansion is really good. I used to claim that I can't drink a thousand cups, but I got drunk after two cups last night. It seems that the amount of alcohol is not enough. Practice!"

Murong Yunyao said: "Boss, is the prince there? We are in a hurry to rush to Yongzhou, and we are about to say goodbye."

The chief manager shook his head and said: "Qiantui received an imperial decree from Zhao Guan's family yesterday, and transferred him to the Northern Han Dynasty to help out. He left early today. Since the two of you have urgent matters and the old servant can't force you to stay, I will send the two of you out." house."

Wan Jianfeng smiled and said: "Old man, we don't have any jumpers on us, I wonder if we can give a little bit of charity?"

The manager hurriedly took out a bulging money bag from his pocket, handed it to Wan Jianfeng and said, "Young man, are these enough? If not enough, the old servant will go to the cashier to help you get some."

Wan Jianfeng took the money bag, stuffed it in his hands, and laughed with satisfaction: "Thank you, thank you, we will meet later!" Before he finished speaking, he had already climbed out of the courtyard wall, and Murong Yunyao also had to tiptoe , then flipped out.

Under the astonished eyes of the boss, the two left the Wugong County Prince's Mansion, and went straight to the river where the boat was tied yesterday.At that time, they found that the cable of the boat was still firmly tied to the tree, so they boarded the boat and broke through the water towards the northeast.

At this moment, the mist on the river floats and spreads, like a faint light smoke, curling up and spreading around, and then like a thin cicada gauze, shadowy, dancing in the air, sometimes turning into white clouds, floating Flickering, coming and going without a trace, rendering the mountains and forests on both sides of the strait into landscape paintings with elegant brush and ink and appropriate shades.The small boat in the painting floats away into the distance in the misty mist...
