Maung-mei is wrong

Chapter 25 Clues

No one spoke for a long time, everyone was downcast, and they all felt that their loyalty had fed the dog.

Nie Yunhan broke the suffocating silence, and continued: "Song Mingchong must have thought of these key points, so he spent so much time on acting this play."

"After such a big fight, isn't he afraid of being exposed?" Wan Lifeng asked suspiciously.

"That's not necessarily the case. Only he himself knows why he sent troops, and others may not understand." Nie Yunhan said, "The first emperor's order to kill me failed to be delivered, and this matter will be known by the court sooner or later. Regardless of whether the emperor will The killing order will be issued again. At that time, there will be no trace of me in the prison. Song Mingchong can hardly shirk the blame. What he didn't want to happen has already happened. He can't put himself in danger. He has to do something. I speculate that the purpose of his big fanfare There are three--"

"First of all, only Song Mingchong and Mr. Dong, the magistrate of Wenzhou County, have encountered the true and false Tiehewei. This time, Song Mingchong must drag Mr. Dong into the water. The two are in the same boat, so Mr. Dong will not talk nonsense. Nonsense. As long as Song Mingchong bites him to death and says he has never seen any Tiehewei, the court will have no way to embarrass him. At most, he can say that I escaped from the prison on my own, and the culpability will be much smaller. Anyway, Tangzhou Mansion is Song Mingchong's territory. He is also fearless."

"Secondly, he came to Wenzhou to meet me and find out my truth. Song Mingchong must have suspected the other party's intentions, but the other party should have ignored it. Song Mingchong's hatred for Haqin and the Duyu people is no less than us. Rather than trusting this person who hides his head and shows his tail, he trusts us to find Haqin and kill him. At that time, he will be credited with his assistance and everyone will be happy."

"Third, since he already suspects that there is a spy around him, he naturally wants to act out this scene, so that the person will not be suspicious. Whether the other party believes it or not, it will take a few days for the spy to deliver the news. This can be regarded as buying time for us."

Zhuo Ying sat idle and wiped the saber in his hand, listening carefully to Nie Yunhan's detailed analysis of Song Mingchong's actions, and gradually became clearer in his mind.

He really did not expect that his impulsive actions at that time would involve so many incidents.

When I saw Song Mingchong before, he was very mediocre in all aspects. When I met him, the "Iron Crane Guard", although he was not flattering, he did not have the arrogance of a soldier.

Sure enough, people can't just look at one side. Fortunately, Song Mingchong is not a person who protects himself wisely, and can distinguish between pros and cons at critical moments.

Zuo Hengqiu tapped the cigarette pouch on the stone: "In this way, Song Mingchong is considered well-intentioned. But I can't see clearly now. For example, if the mysterious person who sent the letter is in a cooperative relationship with Haqin, does Haqin know? Do you know what he did?"

"This man wanted Song Mingchong to stop us, it would be good for Haqin, even if he knew about it, he wouldn't bother." Wan Lifeng said, "But we killed three of his secret agents, and he definitely won't let it go."

Nie Yunhan said calmly: "Now it's not that he won't let us go, but we won't let him go. So don't worry, let him go all the way, we'll just go all the way, find the Haqin dog thief, and avenge our foster father!"

After hearing this analysis, Xiang Yu Shu became angry and saddened, his eyes were already red. Hearing what Nie Yunhan said, he immediately shouted: "Yes, kill Haqin's dog thief and avenge Guan Ye!"

"That's right, he will take care of Song Mingchong's affairs." Zuo Hengqiu nodded and said, "We don't need to worry about anything else, just take care of our own actions."

Dai Yansheng looked at Nie Yunhan: "Since Song Mingchong bought time for us, what should we do next?"

Speaking of this headache, Nie Yunhan was a little sluggish, he waved his hands and said, "Go and rest first, let me think about it carefully."

Hearing what he said, the others didn't say much, and each found a secluded tree under the tree to catch up on sleep.

Zhuo Yingxian also went to rest as promised, but woke up after a short sleep, tossing and turning unable to sleep, looked up at Nie Yunhan.

I saw the man sitting leaning against the root of the tree, looking down at the small piece of wood in his hand, his brows were tightly frowned, his face was gloomy, and the profile of his face was sharp and cold. From a distance, he looked so lonely and helpless mean.

However, how could the majestic red boa leader be helpless?Zhuo Yingxian felt that he must have thought too much.

Nie Yunhan noticed that he was moving, and looked at him, with a gentle smile on his face instinctively.

When Zhuo Yingxian sat down next to him, Nie Yunhan whispered: "Why don't you sleep more? Are you hungry?"

"Not hungry, not sleepy either." Zhuo Yingxian took the piece of wood from him and looked at it carefully, "Have you seen any clue yet?"

"Hmm. I guess it's some sort of token, but it's not from Duyu people." Nie Yunhan looked at Zhuo Yingxian's slender white fingers touching the piece of wood, and found it quite pleasing to the eye, "At least I've never been in Duyu before. found in humans."

Zhuo Yingxian looked at the pattern on the wood chip, the more he looked at it, the more familiar it became, but he couldn't figure out what it was.

He looked up and saw a clump of impatiens blooming not far away, so he got up and picked a few flowers, squeezed out the juice with his fingers, and dripped it on the pattern of the wooden sign.

"The color is not deep enough, so I don't know if I can see it clearly." Zhuo Yingxian originally wanted to print the wooden plaque on the back of his hand, but he was afraid that the skin would not be easy to be painted, so he asked Nie Yunhan to take the wooden plaque. He removed the cuff and pulled out a small one. Cut off the sleeves of the snow-white coat, buttoned up the wooden piece, and pressed it firmly.

Nie Yunhan looked at his skillful operation and said with a smile, "How do you know that impatiens can be dyed?"

"I saw my mother dye her nails when I was very young." Zhuo Yingxian didn't even lift his eyelids, "It's just that she seldom dyed her nails later on."

When mentioning his mother, Nie Yunhan didn't dare to joke anymore, for fear of bringing up his unpleasant memories, but he didn't want to change the subject suddenly, so he fell silent.

Seeing that he was silent, Zhuo Ying looked up at him: "Brother Han."

"Ok?"

"The past has happened, and no one can change it. I won't say anything, but if I say it, I won't be afraid of being mentioned." Zhuo Yingxian looked at him seriously, "You can talk if you want, and you can ask whatever you want. You don’t have to be shy about asking anything, and you don’t have to be so careful with me.”

Under the sunlight, the young man's amber pupils are very clear, as clear as a stream. Although he has seen the dirty world and experienced the abandoned life, he still has such a pair of clean and clear eyes, which makes people feel distressed. And admired.

Nie Yunhan smiled relievedly: "I was thinking too much."

"You always like to think a lot, aren't you tired?" Zhuo Ying let go of his hand, and saw a light red flower-like trace printed on his cuff by the wood chip. Although the color is light, it is much more clear than on the wooden sign up.

Nie Yunhan grabbed his sleeve and looked carefully: "It really is a flower."

Zhuo Yingxian stared at the flower for a long time, rolled his eyes and thought about it, and suddenly grabbed Nie Yunhan's hand that was pressing his sleeve, and said pleasantly: "I know! This is the peacock waiting for the night!"

"What peacock? Isn't it a flower?"

Nie Yunhan was born in a military family and joined the army at a young age. Even if he entered the "red boa", he had limited contact with flowers and plants-most of them were poisonous flowers and plants. Except for his mother's favorite peony, he was really good at other flowers. I don't know much about it.

Zhuo Yingxian finally knew something that he didn't understand, and at this moment he felt a little proud: "This is a kind of epiphyllum, the petals are slender, when it blooms, it looks like a peacock opening its tail, and because the epiphyllum blooms at night, someone cares about it." It's called the Peacock Waiting for Night."

Nie Yunhan looked at his cheeks bulging with a grin, and wanted to pinch his face itchingly, but couldn't help it: "Where did you see it?"

Ordinary people rarely raise epiphyllum, and the old Taoist priest Yunxuzi doesn't have the leisurely mind to grow flowers and grass. Nie Yunhan speculates that if he saw it at Monk Jinghai's place, then he was in the Nanfeng Pavilion back then.

That Nanfeng Pavilion... what is it called?So smash it to pieces!

Unexpectedly, Zhuo Ying raised his eyebrows and said: "I have never seen a real peacock waiting for the night, but I have seen this pattern, and I only know the name of this flower after listening to others. When I first saw it, it was printed on paper. So I looked at the pattern on the wood chip and thought it looked familiar, but I didn’t recognize it.”

Nie Yunhan's eyes sparkled: "Do you know what this piece of wood is for?!"

"This is the sign of a black market in Wulingdu." Afraid of waking up others, Zhuo Yingxian hooked his neck with his left hand with loose sleeves, and said in a low voice, "This black market is like a short-lived epiphyllum, and it opens at night. The market is closed in the early morning, and the entrance is quite hidden, you need to be recommended by others to know where it is, and if you want to enter, you must have this sign as proof."

The posture is so intimate, even though Nie Yunhan is full of concentration, he is also a little dazed by the faint green fragrance of plants and trees emanating from his body, so he can't help but think about it, he has been sweating all night without having time to wash up, why did he Still so delicious?

"Listen to me?!"

Seeing that he lowered his eyes and said nothing, Zhuo Yingxian felt that he had provided such useful information, but there was no one to support him, so he was very upset, and patted him on the back of the neck hard.

Nie Yunhan quickly came back to his senses, and praised sincerely: "I heard that! A Xian, you are awesome!"

He found that Zhuo Yingxian had a cold demeanor at first, with an aura that should not be approached by strangers, but once he got acquainted with it, he revealed his true colors - a cat-like young man, seemingly scheming, but actually kind and flawless, stubborn and nice For face, don't let people look down on him, and don't let people sympathize with him, otherwise he will be angry, but he must be praised for doing great things, so as to satisfy his little vanity.

Zhuo Yingxian was very satisfied with the compliment, and continued: "Wulingdu is not far from here, we will be there in about five days if we hurry up. In fact, there are some detours now. If we start from Wenzhou, we can arrive in three days." .”

"This black market is so hidden, how did you know?"

"I run errands and deliver things for people, so I naturally come into contact with a lot of merchants and local merchants, so I heard about it from time to time!" Zhuo Yingxian withdrew his left arm and tried to tie up his sleeves.

Nie Yunhan naturally reached out to tie him up, Zhuo Yingxian did not refuse.

"The purpose of the black market is to make money and do business. If you say it's hidden, it's not that hidden. They do this mainly to avoid the government." He raised his arms and said, "As long as we are sincere and have enough money, we will be fine." Do it! After I arrive at Wulingdu, I will go find my old customers, they should be happy to introduce us."

"Well, fortunately, we, A Xian, are poor and ambitious, and we have worked so hard to take care of our master, so we have made friends all over the world, and there are people who help him wherever we go." Nie Yunhan helped him tie up his sleeves, and said with a smile, "Without you, I'm afraid we would have to It takes a lot of work.”

Zhuo Yingxian slanted towards him, curled his lips: "This is too boastful, not sincere at all. Aren't you 'red boas' just looking for news, even without me, it would only take three to five hours at most. "

Nie Yunhan chuckled, seeing that the fingers of his right hand were dyed bright red from squeezing the impatiens, he took out a cloth towel from his bosom, wet it with water from the water bag, and pulled his hand over to wipe it carefully.

Zhuo Yingxian was thinking about who to go to when he got to Wulingdu, so he didn't have any scruples at the moment, just let Nie Yunhan play around.

His hands are slender and thin, and the bones are indeed softer than ordinary people. With a light pinch, they can be fully grasped.The palms are warm and dry, and there are thin calluses on the tiger's mouth and the roots of the fingers, which are caused by years of sword practice. The nails are rosy and glow with a healthy luster.

Thinking of the word "health", Nie Yunhan's heart moved, and he asked carefully: "Ah Xian, can you remember what kind of medicine the old bustard of Nanfeng Hall gave you? Master Dai said that you still have some stasis in your body, I think It should be caused by this medicine. If he remembers the name, I will ask him to inquire about it, and if he can figure out how to prepare it, he will be able to prescribe the right medicine when he comes back."

"Ten years have passed, there is nothing to cure, even if there is some stasis, it shouldn't matter." Zhuo Yingxian withdrew his hand when his fingers were almost wiped, and said casually, "It's convenient to have soft muscles and bones." , It’s okay. I’m already this age, even if I take some antidote, I’m afraid it’s impossible to become as copper-skinned and iron-boned as you.”

Seeing him like this, Nie Yunhan didn't persuade him much, but he still made up his mind to ask about it. It is estimated that other Nanfeng halls will have the same medicine, and he may not be able to find it out.

"By the way, Brother Han, I have something important to ask." Zhuo Yingxian suddenly looked solemn, "Do we have enough money? The reason why the black market is a black market is that apart from being illegal, the prices they ask are real. Hei. We have to buy something in order to deceive people, even if we are looking for someone to ask a question, we have to spend a lot of money!"

Seeing his sudden nervousness, Nie Yunhan couldn't help but smiled: "My salary hasn't been changed for two years, and I've brought along the meager property left by my parents. We are all bachelors, and we have saved a little over the years. I also knocked a sum from Song Mingchong, which is enough for this trip. As for trading in the black market, you don’t have to worry, the brothers are first-class in cheating and abducting, not to mention that they are easy to catch, at least they are evenly matched. "

Zhuo Yingxian nodded reassuringly: "That's okay, I also brought all my belongings with me, it should be enough for this journey."

Sure enough, he is in charge of life on weekdays, and it is quite trivial to think about it.

An inappropriate thought suddenly crossed Nie Yunhan's mind - he is really a person who lives his life.

if possible...

Forget it, it's useless to think too much, just asking for trouble.

After noon, Zuo Hengqiu, Wan Lifeng, Dai Yansheng and Xiang Yushu woke up one after another. They were very happy to hear that Zhuo Yingxian had broken the secret of the little piece of wood, and praised him well.

Zhuo Yingxian was already comfortable enough in front of Nie Yunhan, but in front of others, he still had to continue to pretend, especially Xiang Yu Shu was still a child in his opinion, so he had to show the majesty of an adult.Therefore, in the face of these compliments, he just nodded lightly, with humility as his main attitude.

Everyone is a bit hungry, so Zuo Hengqiu and Xiang Yushu are left to watch at the moment, while Wan Lifeng and Dai Yansheng go to the forest to pick wild fruits to see if they can find suitable prey.

Nie Yunhan forced Zhuo Yingxian to sleep with him for a while, he had to recharge his energy before continuing on the road.

Zhuo Ying was busy doing good things, lying under the tree and soon fell asleep.

Nie Yunhan looked at his thin body in black clothes, worriedly took out his own robe from the bag, covered him with peace of mind, and quickly fell asleep after lying down.

Seeing Nie Yunhan's small movements, Xiang Yushu raised his ears to listen to his breathing, and after confirming that they were really asleep, he whispered to Zuo Hengqiu: "Brother Han is really kind to Brother Xian."

Zuo Hengqiu glanced at him: "Why, do you feel that you have fallen out of favor?"

"Of course not." Xiang Yu Shu grabbed a weed and wrapped it around his finger to play with, "My little brother is different from my sweetheart, Brother Han will continue to love me."

"Then what are you doing so sad?"

Xiang Yu Shu sighed lightly: "It would be great if they could really be together. With Brother Xian around, Brother Han will no longer be as disregarding himself as before, insisting on risking his life for everything. But I'm also afraid that our action will not go well this time, if something happens to Brother Han, Brother Xian will definitely be sad."

"You are not very big, and you have a lot to worry about. After joining the army, this life is not your own, and every day counts as a happy day." Zuo Hengqiu looked back at Nie Yunhan and Zhuo Yingxian who were sleeping soundly, "Life and death , let’s take it lightly.”

The author has something to say:

Brother Han: My wife is good at managing life.

A Xian: You prodigal bastard, just don't be blind.
