Don't Forget Everything

At the moment of Xu Shi, Wei Lin went back to Wuwangzhai, where he had only visited home. As soon as he arrived at Wuwangzhai, he knew something had happened to Wen Ran.As soon as Wei Lin stepped into Chaoyun Tower, he saw Song Yilin staring at him like a fish that had been exposed to the sun for seven, eight, or ninety days, motionless, wishing to rot into a puddle of salt water and melt into the crevices of the stones.

Song Yilin heard the sound of footsteps approaching from far to near, and thought it was Wen Ran's news, but seeing that it was Wei Lin, she couldn't help being disappointed, and simply didn't move.

Seeing Song Yilin's appearance like this, and seeing that the bowl of noodles on the table was lumpy, Wei Lin couldn't help asking Wei Chuyue with his eyes.

Wei Chuyue shook his head and said, "Let him go. Uncle Lin, I have something to tell you, follow me to the study."

After Wei Chuyue and Wei Lin left, Han Muchuan also walked out of the house and walked around the yard, leaving Song Yilin alone in a daze.

After a while, Duofu came back and rushed into the house: "Brother Song, there is news."

Song Yilin jumped up and asked urgently, "What? Where is Wen Ran?! Tell me!"

"Our people chased the carriage to Yanwei Lake. Someone on the pier saw Mr. Wen being taken on a boat."

"Painted boat?" Song Yilin pulled Duofu and asked, "Which painted boat? Whose painted boat? Where is the painted boat now?"

"Brother Song... there are more than [-] or [-] boats on Yanwei Lake. We haven't found out which boat it is yet, and it will take some time... Brother Song, don't worry. Since we have found the clue, we will continue to track it down. Until we find Mr. Wen."

Song Yilin clenched her hands tightly: "Tell Wei Shao, I'm going to Yanwei Lake."

"Hey?!" Duofu didn't have time to stop him, Song Yilin ran away.Han Muchuan in the yard couldn't help laughing secretly when he saw people going out in a hurry, thinking that he couldn't sit still for a long time, and being able to hold back for two hours was already very impressive for Song Yilin, if it was him, Han Muchuan would not be able to sit still without Wei Chuyue. Thinking that he could bear it, he waited for two hours without saying a word.

Han Muchuan looked at Duofu: "Duofu."

"Young Master Han."

"Be optimistic about Song Zixu for your Wei Shao, and report back immediately if there is something to do."

"Yes."

Yanwei Lake is only ten miles away from Biancheng. In spring and autumn, when the weather is pleasant, the fragrant boats and paintings of various workshops and divisions will be on Yanwei Lake, singing songs all night and drinking wine for ten miles. It is a favorite place for the rich and powerful in the city.

But at this time, there are many boats on Yanwei Lake, and each one looks similar. Song Yilin is standing by the lake, but she doesn't know where to find them.

The little fat man walked up to Song Yilin holding a candied haws: "We asked the people on the pier carefully, and two boatmen saw a servant leading three people onto the boat. It's just that there are many boats on the Yanwei Lake, and they just glanced at them. I can't remember which boat it was."

"Where is the person? Let me ask." Song Yilin was very suspicious. Although there are many and miscellaneous painting boats, all workshops and divisions try their best to make their fragrant boats stand out. Every year, they will come up with various ways to attract customers. , the colorful lanterns at the bow and stern are the most eye-catching and each boat is different.There is no reason why the boatman, who has been living on the pier all year round, cannot recognize him.

Not long after, the little fat man led three rough men in bunts to Song Yilin, Song Yilin led one of them away, and asked again carefully: "When did you see an official take someone on board today?"

"About the early days of Moshen."

"Where did you see it?"

"There, I just finished moving the goods and was resting in the kiosk."

"Where did the official post come from? How did it come?"

"From the east, by car."

"Who are the officers and men with?"

"With three people, two are tall and tall, and one is young and thin, with an excellent appearance."

"Which ship did you get on?"

"It was not night yet, and the boats were all parked on the pier, and there were so many people, I couldn't see clearly."

Song Yilin nodded and said, "Go back and call someone for me."

The boatman was questioned several times, and Song Yilin answered that he was unambiguous, answering every question, and answered clearly, as if there was no flaw.

Song Yilin walked to the gazebo by the lake, sat at the place where the boatman pointed out for him to rest, and looked at the pier thoughtfully.

Soon, the second person came to Song Yilin, and Song Yilin asked the same question.The second one is not a boatman, but a guy at the wharf.During the season of Yanwei Lake flower boat tour, the dignitaries who come here either take a car or a sedan chair, and they will leave the car, horse and sedan chair in the car and horse station to take care of them.This guy just saw that the official sent Wen Ran, and the young master he described looked like Wen Ran was pretty good.

"...After about half an hour, the official came back and left in a car, but the young master did not come back with him."

Song Yilin's complexion was not good, his brows were tightly frowned, the clerk was a little scared, he stood shyly by the side, wishing he could blend into the night.

"Go and bring me the last person."

"Hey good."

Song Yilin soon met the third person, who was a helper on the wharf. Recently, there were many boats on Yanwei Lake, and there were many high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Naturally, manpower and temporary workers were needed.

"What did you see?"

"There was an official who led a son on a boat."

"Which ship?"

The helper scratched his head: "I don't know."

"What do you mean you don't know?"

"Master, there are so many boats at this pier, the small ones can't be distinguished."

"You said you came to help?"

"Yes, yes. The youngest second uncle is a boat runner, and he is on the boat of the boss. The Mid-Autumn Festival is so lively that even the boss rented both boats to Yuxianglou to make flower boats, and the second uncle also found a boat for the younger one. Got an errand."

"How long have you been here?"

"Come here before the Mid-Autumn Festival." It's only been half a month.

Song Yilin nodded: "You go."

The little fat man finished eating one candied haws, and Song Yilin also finished asking.

"Brother Song, how are you doing?"

"Go and tie up the boatman, find a remote place, and I want to ask questions."

Little Fatty scratched his fleshy cheeks: "Where are the other two?"

"Reward some silver, send it away."

Little Fatty didn't quite understand Song Yilin's intentions, so he nodded in agreement without asking any further questions.

The boatman was tied into the woods, yelled in fright, was gagged by the little fat man, and dragged him to Song Yilin.

Without further ado, Song Yilin drew his sword and cut off some of the boatman's hair, leaving a bloodstain on the side of his neck. It was not serious, but it was still painful.

The boatman was so frightened that he couldn't yell out, so he kowtowed to Song Yilin while crying.

"You have worked at the pier for several years, but you can't recognize the flower boats on the lake? Do you think I'm stupid?" Song Yilin took off the rag from the boatman's mouth and said, "I'll ask you again, where is Wen Ran? On the same boat, let’s talk after we think about it.”

"Master! Villain... villain..."

Song Yilin's sword was dangling in front of the boatman's eyes. He was rubbing it in the woods at night, and he couldn't see anything clearly, except for the white flower on the blade that was so bright that it could almost blind people's eyes.

"The waiter at Chemayi couldn't see them getting on the boat, and the helper who only came to the pier for half a month couldn't recognize the boat, which is reasonable. But you, can you remember Wen Ran's appearance clearly, but can't remember which boat it is? You said you saw it from the pavilion. In this season of Yanwei Lake, there are few cargo ships and many flower boats. The goods of the Shenshi cargo ships must have been cleared. From the pavilion, it is very clear that all the flower boats will be on the pier. Put up a signboard on the pier, even if you can't read, you should know the patterns, right?"

Song Yilin threw a scroll in front of the boatman, and the boatman opened it tremblingly, and inside were the signature patterns of various workshops and divisions, as well as small pictures of painting boats.

"Still don't recognize it?"

Song Yilin tilted his wrist slightly, and the icy sword stuck to the boatman's face, scaring him almost to pee his pants.

The boatman was covered in cold sweat, shaking his hands, and pointed to a boat shape on the scroll.

Song Yilin glanced at the little fat man, and the little fat man immediately took two people to find the boat.

Song Yilin asked again: "Who arranged for you to deliver the letter?" Song Yilinming knew that it was deliberately arranged, but seeing this boatman who wasted his time saving people, he still hated this boatman, and really wanted to slap him a few times before venting. Vent anger.

The boatman doesn't know martial arts, but he can clearly see Song Yilin's eyes that want to kill people, and the eyes of the wild wolf in the mountains seem to tear people apart.

"The villain... The villain... just took the money... The official... The official gave the villain ten taels of silver, saying that if someone asks, he will answer like this. It is all true, as long as the villain keeps it secret." Any painting boat will do!" The boatman took out an ingot of ten taels of silver from his bosom, and held it to Song Yilin with trembling hands, "I don't dare...don't lie to me!"

Song Yilin swung the long sword, scared the boatman to the ground and peed his pants, but the long sword got into the scabbard before touching him, and Song Yilin also strode away.

Song Yi came to the pier, and the little fat man came back just in time: "Brother Song, I found it. It is the painting boat of Hongxiufang."

"Get a boat."

Song Yilin paddled into Yanwei Lake alone in a small boat.

Little Fatty sighed, and told the people around him, "Quickly, go to Wuwangzhai to deliver the message."

As soon as that person left, the little fat man asked the other person beside him: "There is still..."

"?"

"Is there any candied haws?"

"..."

***

The painting boat of Hongxiufang was floating in the lake, and the song and song on it were slow. Song Yilin swung the hook rope to get on the side deck of the boat, climbed the rope and landed on the deck.

The boat in Hongxiufang is not the biggest on the Yanwei Lake, but it is not small. At the moment, there are more than a hundred people and dozens of rooms on board. It is really not easy to find a person, let alone bring Wenran on the boat, just to hide it , Song Yilin didn't know if there were any darkrooms on this ship, and how many compartments there were, but he couldn't bear it, and couldn't wait to come and search for it himself.

Song Yilin thought that if he wanted to hide someone himself on the painting boat, he would not hide in a place full of people. There must be a secluded place, so Song Yilin went to a place where there were few people. It's a place, the little fat man said, it's the room of Miss Yan'er, the top brand in Hongxiufang.

Song Yilin went up to the second floor lightly, and entered the Xiangge. The Xiangge was extremely quiet, and there were guards outside the door. Song Yilin climbed outside the cabin, and through the window screen, she vaguely saw someone sitting in front of the desk, accompanied by a maid. Thinking about it, I think it's the girl Yan'er.

"Miss."

"Come in."

This voice is somewhat familiar.Song Yilin didn't see Wenran here, and wanted to leave, but suddenly heard the girl's voice inside, but stayed there, he couldn't remember where he had heard this voice, so he had to listen for a while.

"what happened?"

"Miss, that man didn't want to eat or drink, he just said he wanted to see Miss."

"That's right. If he doesn't want to eat or drink, just stop eating and drinking. It doesn't matter for a day or two. Just keep an eye on him and don't let him bump into each other. If he doesn't behave well, it's okay to use some incense."

Song Yilin frowned, he recognized the voice, it was Guo Mengying!The person she said must be Wen Ran.

"understood."

Song Yilin is good at kung fu, and the boat is lively, he followed that person all the way from the second floor to the cabin below, but no one noticed, but they went deeper and deeper, and they have entered the deep part of the ship, and there are more and more people guarding Song Yilin alone If you enter an uninhabited land, you can bring Wenran with you, you will definitely be discovered, and you have to do it.They are now in Yanwei Lake, and it is even more difficult to escape.

Song Yilin was thinking in his heart, thinking to act carefully, but when the man opened the door, Song Yilin saw Wen Ran sitting inside, and at a glance, he completely forgot about "think twice" and rushed in with his sword in hand.

"Who?! Come on!"

There was a commotion in the cabin, swords and swords intersected, and in an instant, someone fell into a pool of blood.

Wen Ran was shocked: "Brother Song!"

"go!"

Song Yilin quickly stepped forward, pulled Wen Ran and left.

There is no window in the belly of the cabin, so Song Yilin can only lead Wen Ran all the way out.The cabin is small, and Song Yilin's sword goes out quickly, but is slow to withdraw. He can only use his body to block the shadows of swords and swords that he can't avoid. The blood on his face, when had he seen such a scene? !

"Wen Ran, hold on to me, don't be afraid!"

The people in Guo Mengying's hands are not weak, but it is not enough to face Song Yilin. Guo Mengying ordered that there is no room for loss. They dare not give up their lives. Besides, it is only one person who came, how can they snatch someone from more than 30 of them?Will it still be used in the rivers and lakes in the future? !

The leader was unambiguous at all, lit the three incense sticks on his body, threw them into the cabin, closed the cabin door outside, and locked Song Yilin, Wen Ran and their own people inside. After a while, there was the sound of fighting inside. Gradually it stopped.

"Huh." The man said, and ordered his subordinates to report to Guo Mengying, and then sent someone to appease the bustard and boatman who heard the noise and came to check.
