lonely moon dream

The desert is vast and the sand is like snow, and if you don't enter Tongguan, there will be no spring.

If you ask where the wine is the strongest and where the food is the most delicious in the windy and sandy northwestern border town of Tongguan, the answer must be Tongguan Spring.If you ask where the news is the most well-informed in this important Northwest transportation hub, the answer is undoubtedly Tongguanchun.

Tongguanchun, the largest restaurant in Tongguan, is located on Tongguan Central Street, a three-story brick and wood mixed building.The little second brother held stacks of cups and plates in his hands, and walked nimbly between the tables.On the small stage, the storytellers behind the desk were frothing, and off the stage, the thick and broad Northwest men drank wine and ate meat, and from time to time gave the stage storytellers a good shout.The dusty businessmen are also happy to sit at the table with these hearty men, drink wine to warm up their bodies, and have fun.

In the lobby on the first floor, near the entrance of a table of the Eight Immortals, a man patted his companion who stretched his neck and listened attentively, as if he had something to say.

"Don't make trouble, listen. What will happen to the number one beauty in the south of the Yangtze River!" The companion was impatient.

"I seemed to see Xinyue in the Moxi Phoenix Tower just now."

"Where is it, where is it?" The companion immediately turned his head and looked around.Although the number one beauty in the south of the Yangtze River is well-known, she is thousands of miles away after all, so she can only hear something new from other people's mouths at most.This Moxi Phoenix is ​​a famous prostitute in Tongguan, she can be seen and touched, um, when she has enough money.

"...Going upstairs." The man was a little proud that he was luckier than his companion, seeing that fiery figure.

"I don't know which nobleman invited the beauty in the private room upstairs?" The companion was a little regretful and missed the opportunity to see the beauty, but was soon attracted by the storyteller.

"Poor Ding's family of more than 130 people, their families were ruined overnight; poor Jiangnan's number one beauty, Miss Fengming of the Ding family, died on the eve of entering the palace as a candidate; it's a pity that a large mansion in Ding's mansion was reduced to ashes overnight." The storyteller's voice From high to low, "This is exactly, people do not have a hundred days to be happy, and flowers do not have a hundred days to be red. Life is full of joy, and don't let the golden cup be empty to the moon. I advise you to cherish your youth, and advise you to take pity on your eyes. people……"

"Hey, has the Jiangnan Dingfu tragedy been solved? Who is the murderer?" Someone shouted from the audience.

"It's broken——that's weird!" The storyteller kept it off and raised his voice, "This murderer... Some people say that they saw Mr. Ding in the ruins the next morning holding a three-foot sword, and his whole body was covered in blood. , looking crazy."

"Could it be that old servant Ding killed the whole family and set fire to the house?"

The storyteller laughed but did not answer, and continued: "Someone said afterwards that they saw the crazy old servant Ding wandering the streets all day long, and they would call 'the devil! The devil! Kill! Kill!'"

"Could it be that the Ding family is haunted by ghosts?"

The storyteller stretched out a finger, shook it in front of his face and said, "Don't say it, don't say it."

"Cut!" The audience was full of sighs. They seemed to be sorry for such a result, but they still couldn't get enough of it. They enjoyed it, and it was just reserved for idlers to talk after dinner.

……

The crystal curtain moved in the breeze, full of rose fragrance.

On the second floor, in the private room with the brand name "Rose Courtyard", the crystal curtain facing the empty hall was blown up by inexplicable air currents. There were no rose-filled shelves inside the curtain, but some had faded faces and blood-stained blades.

The delicate and beautiful woman fell to the ground, her hands trembling slightly, and a bloodstain on her stiff neck showed what happened just now.Standing in front of her was a man in a black suit, with a flushed face and a disheveled front, as if he had just been torn apart, holding an iron sword upside down in his right hand, breathing heavily.

Lou Xinyue raised her head and looked at the man in front of her in horror. After confirming that the other party would not attack her again, she immediately said softly with grievances: "You are so cruel, senior brother..."

As soon as the word "Senior Brother" was out of the mouth, the cold tip of the sword hit the throat above Fen's neck again: "Which one is your senior brother? If you don't talk about the topic, it goes without saying."

"Say, I'll say." Lou Xinyue didn't dare to test the other party's patience any more, and said in a coquettish and coquettish voice, calmly and logically, "Jiangnan new line report, Mr. Coach has been active in Jiangnan for the past two months. Half a month I went to Ding's house in the south of the Yangtze River before, but I only stayed in Ding's house for less than half a night, and then disappeared again."

The man put away the iron sword, no longer looked at the woman in red on the ground, and secretly used his kung fu to suppress the churning cock in the cock.

"What about the useful information your hall master said?" The man's voice sank a bit.

Lou Xinyue originally wanted to say "you help me up and I'll tell you", but seeing that the man would rather endure the bruises on his forehead than look at him, he didn't dare to challenge the other party's bottom line, obediently got up and walked to the table Beside him, he poured himself a cup of shock-suppressing tea.

Taking a sip of herbal tea, Lou Xinyue murmured softly, "The hall master also said that you are a good man worth relying on."

"If you mention him again, your head will be taken off, and you will go to Tianfengtang to ask him for information."

It's okay not to mention the head of Tianfengtang, but this mention made Xunyue's fire even bigger.Before leaving, Jintang patted his chest and promised that as long as he came to any hall of Tianfengtang, he would definitely get the best treatment and the latest and most reliable news.Xunyue doesn't like the atmosphere of the place of fireworks, so instead of going to Peach Blossom Fan to find Lou Xinyue, the deputy hall master, she made an appointment to meet at Tongguan Spring, another hall in Tongguan.I don't want to follow this woman's way.

Lou Xinyue glanced sadly at the bewildered wood, her eyes were full of emotion, as if crying.If he didn't know that this is the vice seat of Tianfeng Hall who is famous for illusion and poison in the sect, Xunyue must have thought that he had bullied a weak woman just now.

"It's really hard to grasp the line of coaching the master himself, and the spies' rewards are all afterthoughts. But..." Lou Xinyue leaned towards Xunyue again.

"But what?" Xunyue turned around in a hurry, her expression was not as ferocious as before, and there was even a bit of childishness like a child waiting for a candy.

Lou Xinyue was in a good mood, so she didn't make any more detours.Although it is true that she would not necessarily lose her life to the other party if she really wanted to fight for life and death, Lou Xinyue didn't want to offend this legendary senior brother who has been crowned in the Fuluo Temple for ten years in a row: "However, my lord's saber sky competition , it appeared in Moxi recently."

"Where?"

"Yunzhou." Lou Xinyue handed Xunyue an envelope, saw Xunyue opened the envelope, took out two portraits, and continued, "The one on top is the person who currently holds Tianjing, called Eleven, from the Wang family compound The other boy is Su Bing. This time they came to Yunzhou, probably for..."

Lou Xinyue wanted to slowly tell Xunyue the information she got, and took the opportunity to get closer.But after the other party found that there was an appendix introducing details in the envelope, he turned around and left the private room without leaving a word.

"Stone!" Lou Damei was in a very bad mood.

A black shadow appeared behind Lou Xinyue.

"Didn't I tell you to take the appendix away?" Lou Xinyue stomped on Jinlian and gritted her teeth.

"Hall master will be here soon." Heiying landed on one knee, his hoarse and dark voice made people feel uncomfortable.

"Let's see how I'll clean up you when I go back."

Soi Ying's body froze for a moment, said nothing, and disappeared at the entrance of the private room.
