Maung-mei is wrong

Zhuo Yingxian once again had doubts in his heart - how could the red boa be afraid of fire?

"The fire is big enough, let's roast the clothes."

The cave is narrow, so Nie Yunhan took out a climbing rope and fixed it on the two walls of the cave entrance, turning it into a clothesline.The two took off their outer robes, and took out the wet clothes in the package. They were all hung on the thin rope, blown fluttering by the wind, and became a quite suitable curtain.

Nie Yunhan was strong and went into battle shirtless, while Zhuo Yingxian was wearing a damp undershirt, which was not very comfortable, and wanted to imitate him, but was blocked.

Not only was he blocked, but he was also disgusted. Nie Yunhan said that he was not physically fit enough, that he would easily catch a cold when the wind and evil invaded in such weather, and he didn't want to drag a sick ghost on the road.

Both of them were not in a good mood, Zhuo Ying was too lazy to argue with him and watched him hang his clothes at the entrance of the cave.

The hole is not wide enough to hang the clothes, so they can only be stacked one on top of the other.

Seeing that his outer robe was half-pressed by Nie Yunhan's navy blue robe, Zhuo Yingxian felt a sense of unreasonable emotion in his heart. He quickly moved his eyes away from the clothes and turned to the person who was drying the clothes.

It's not that he hasn't seen Nie Yunhan's body before, but that time he was shocked by the innumerable scars on his body. At this moment, Zhuo Yingxian found that this person's figure is very attractive.

Viewed from the side, Nie Yunhan's chest is bulging, his abdomen is full of muscles and veins, the outline of eight muscles is clearly visible, his shoulders are wide and his waist is narrow, his arm muscles are knotted and tight, full of strength, reflected by the fire, his skin glows with a warm luster , It makes people want to reach out and touch it.

Zhuo Ying vaguely remembered the feeling of being held in his arms, the broad chest, the strong shoulders and arms, the warm body temperature in the embrace, and even the clean aura that belonged to him, like a quilt drying in the sun The taste after a day is reassuring, and even... I really want to indulge in it.

This random thought was like opening a gate, Zhuo Yingxian suddenly felt his heart beating wildly, just as Nie Yunhan turned around, he hurriedly lowered his eyes, concealedly picked up the firewood at hand, and threw one into the fire.

He didn't know if the flames were too hot, but now he felt his face was burning, so he moved back involuntarily.

Nie Yunhan frowned and glanced at him, and said admonishingly, "Don't stay too far away from the fire, be careful of catching a cold, and let your clothes dry."

"Oh." Zhuo Yingxian moved closer to the fire without a stand, thinking that the other party would not be able to tell if he was blushing now, so he was safe.

It's just that he felt uncomfortable somewhere, so he bent his legs, hugged his knees, stared at the flickering flames, made a blank expression, and tried his best to conceal the thoughts that had just surged in his heart.

Nie Yunhan himself sat on the stone platform far away from the fire, two or three feet away from Zhuo Yingxian, leaning against the stone wall and closing his eyes to rest.

The two of them were speechless for a moment, the atmosphere was warmed by the warm fire, and the crackling sound of the firewood dispelled the embarrassment caused by the excessive tranquility, and instead gave people a chance to enjoy this moment of tranquility.

Nie Yunhan heard the rustling sound coming from the fire, and knew that Zhuo Ying was not moving, but he warned himself to pay less attention to the other party, so he didn't open his eyes, and just paid attention to everything around him with his ears.

After an unknown period of time, a piece of warm cloth was suddenly thrown on his head, and when he opened his eyes, it turned out to be his shirt, which was dry to the touch, only the hem was still a little damp, it must have just been dried.

Nie Yunhan looked at Zhuo Yingxian, who was stirring the firewood, and said calmly, "You don't feel too nervous when leaning on a rock."

It turned out that the voice just now was Zhuo Yingxian helping him dry the clothes.

Nie Yunhan felt warm in his heart, put on his clothes, and said, "Thank you."

"Is this fire copper ball unnecessary? With it, the flame is too big. Now I am afraid that I will fall asleep and be burned by the fire. Why don't we put it out?" Zhuo Yingxian didn't look at him, and took a The branch poked at the burning copper ball, "How can this be extinguished?"

Now that we have dry firewood, without the copper ball, the fire is strong enough to dry clothes for warmth. Nie Yunhan thought for a while, then got up and went over, took out the copper ball with two branches, and threw it on the ground next to him: "Cover the fire with sand Put it out, and put the lid on when it cools down."

Zhuo Yingxian nodded: "It's convenient."

"'If a worker wants to benefit from his work, he must first sharpen his tools.' Although these things are inconspicuous, they can play a vital role in combating Duyu's fine work. We are better than them, and we have some of these objects Credit." Nie Yunhan glanced at Zhuo Yingxian, who was holding his knees and scratching the ground with a branch, "You go to sleep for a while, and we will take turns to watch the wind."

"Okay. You can sit down too, the fire is not too big now."

As soon as Zhuo Ying uttered the gossip, he felt that something was wrong, and explained dryly: "I mean, the fire is not big, and it's easy to get cold if you sit there, you'd better lean closer."

Nie Yunhan turned his head and looked at him steadfastly, making his heart a little creepy.

This person is as meticulous as a hair, and he must have guessed something from the sentence just now.

"Then I don't care about you, go to bed first." Zhuo Yingxian leaned back on the stone wall guiltily, folded his hands on his chest, tilted his head and closed his eyes, ready to fall asleep.

The next moment he heard Nie Yunhan's voice approaching, and he could tell where he was. The other party should be sitting on the other side of the flame, leaning on the other side of the stone wall.

Zhuo Ying's idle heart had just let go when Nie Yunhan suddenly said, "I'm not afraid of fire."

As soon as these words came out, Zhuo Yingxian's eyes opened "swish", looking over the flames, the face of the person opposite was a little blurred in the halo.

"I just think this kind of light is very dazzling." Nie Yunhan looked down at a tree branch he was holding casually in his hand, "It reminds me of the day my foster father died."

Zhuo Yingxian held his breath subconsciously, as if he felt that any louder breathing would affect the other party.

Nie Yunhan closed his eyes, and said softly: "That day, I stepped on the trap formation together with my adoptive father. My adoptive father chose to blew himself up to save me. When those thunders exploded one after another, I didn't even know his final appearance." Can't see clearly."

I just remember that the fire was so bright that it was as bright as clouds, as if it was dyed red by the blood of my adoptive father.

This scene came into his dreams every day, so that he never dared to forget how his adoptive father died generously for him.It was also this scene that made him hang his breath in that dark prison, remembering why he was going to fight next!

He paused, and then said: "My adoptive father treats me as much as a mountain, and he treats me better than his own son Pingye on weekdays, but now I have made Pingye an orphan... So no matter what, I have to find Haqin to take revenge. Live or die."

The words are simple, and the confession ends here. After saying this sentence, Nie Yunhan didn't say any more.

Zhuo Yingxian stared at him blankly, seeing his sharp side face cast a shadow by the halo, solidified with unresolved sadness, he didn't know what to say, as if asking one more question was aimed at his heart Stab it.

Being cautious, Zhuo Yingxian said: "You will definitely avenge Senior Guan, I believe in you."

Nie Yunhan opened his eyes and looked at him: "Thank you."

Zhuo Yingxian didn't ask what they went through, and how they stepped on the trap. He didn't want to see Nie Yunhan's eyes again, that kind of pain made him feel distressed.

So he changed the subject: "The two who attacked us tonight are a bit strange. If you guessed correctly, they should be the subordinates of certain A. It must be because our actions in Fusha County have alarmed the other party's eyeliner that certain A sent people come."

"But Mr. Jia is clearly familiar with you. Through Tie Hewei's incident, he should also know that my kung fu is not bad. If it is a painful assassin, it is impossible to send only two people to stop it. If it is not an assassin, but just a message, why do they always Don't speak? And those two people don't need to work hard at all."

Nie Yunhan said indifferently: "What A did was just to confuse the public, and he didn't want me to guess who he was. If those two people passed on the message directly, he knew I wouldn't believe it, so he had to play a desperate act. It's a good show, as if I was forced to speak."

"but you……"

"Yes, although I have to ask as usual, no matter what they say, I will not believe it in the end. I have no patience today, so I will stop them early." Nie Yunhan looked at Zhuo Yingxian's gentle face opposite the firelight, and looked down. Mou said, "A certain A painstakingly arranged for you to bring me out of Tangzhou Mansion smoothly. His purpose is to let me go to the last step and meet him and Haqin. Therefore, he will not kill me, but only Give me clues."

"But he didn't dare to give clues too directly, because it would affect Haqin's layout, so he could only engage in such ghostly things, thinking that others couldn't figure it out. I don't know if I can't figure it out. If you don’t participate, I won’t ask for the clues he gave, lest I be led by the nose.”

Nie Yunhan said: "Soldiers never tire of cheating, you have to be cautious about the clues you find out, and you can't easily accept the clues that the other party sends to your door."

"It makes sense. All kinds of clues are true or false. If you are not careful, you will fall into the other party's way." Zhuo Ying thought thoughtfully, "Then it doesn't matter. We will check our own, and we will always catch them." to Haqin's tail."

Nie Yunhan's eyes were bent, as if he was smiling, but there was not much smile in his eyes: "Stop talking, hurry up and sleep for a while."

Zhuo Yingxian closed his eyes as he said, and the two took turns to rest, and when it was light, they packed up their dry clothes and left.

He thought he was going to continue on the road to Wulingdu, but Nie Yunhan rode his horse back for a while and found the two people he killed last night.

Few people walked on the mountain road, and there was heavy rain last night, so few people went out. Now it was just dawn, so no one must have seen this scene. The two corpses were still lying there, untouched.

Nie Yunhan was afraid that some clues might be missed due to the dim light and rain last night, so he ran back to check again.

Zhuo Yingxian thought about going to Brother Feng's house, and Nie Yunhan checked it again at night and again during the day, and felt that he was really careful.

"You can only do this if you have conditions. Sometimes you only have enough time to check once, so you can only find what you find." Nie Yunhan squatted in front of a corpse, picking up the man's clothes with a knife to check. Ying Xian turned over the body, but unexpectedly, the other party volunteered to run over to the other body.

Zhuo Yingxian imitated the example, picked up the corpse of the man in black who fought with him last night with the scabbard, and saw that the corpse was swollen and whitish from the water, and looked very terrifying.

He frowned, and instead of looking at that face, he focused his gaze on other places, pulled the body several times, and turned the body around, and was surprised to find something underneath.

"Brother Han! Come and see!"

Nie Yunhan didn't notice it, he kicked the corpse under the tree, covered it with the man's clothes, and strode towards Zhuo Yingxian.

"What did you find?"

Zhuo Yingxian held up a small object and handed it to him: "It's a copper nail!"

Nie Yunhan took the copper nail and looked at it carefully, but couldn't see any clues for a while.

"I must have dropped the copper nail on the ground when he was taking off his clothes last night, but the night was too dark and the copper nail was also dark, so we didn't notice it." Zhuo Yingxian said excitedly, "This man must be wearing it. , otherwise it’s a good mountain road, how could there be such a thing? If the workers carry the materials for building the house, they must take the official road instead of this trail, right?!”

The copper nail looked unremarkable, about two inches long, and it was not a floating nail used for decoration on the door. It looked like an ordinary nail used to nail the door, and Nie Yunhan felt that it looked familiar.

The more this kind of seemingly ordinary thing, the harder it is for people to discover the mystery.

Zhuo Yingxian didn't get a response, so he tugged on his sleeve: "Brother Han, what do you think?"

"You've pretty much said it all, and I have no other opinion."

Nie Yunhan put the copper nails into the small bag hanging on Baichuan's belt, turned over the corpse again and again, and saw no other clues, then kicked the corpse to the side of the road, got on the horse and left with Zhuo Yingxian.

The next two days didn't stop much, and the occasional rest was nothing more than eating a bowl of noodles at a roadside stall, or taking a nap under a tree for a while, the two of them rushed to Wulingdu soon.

Wulingdu is located in the middle of Dayao country, surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side. The whole city is surrounded by five rolling mountains, leaving only one side adjacent to the long river, the Sunset River, which runs from south to north. It is a pure natural ferry, where there are endless merchants.

Because the city was surrounded by mountains, the main road into the city was very narrow, not much wider than a line of sky, but once you passed this road and entered the city gate, you would see a straight and wide road in front of you, more than enough for five horses to run side by side.

There are well-arranged houses and shops on both sides of the road. The street is full of people, shoulders rubbing against each other, and the noise is endless. It is quite like the description in "Peach Blossom Spring" that "the beginning is very narrow, and only then can people pass. After walking for dozens of steps, suddenly enlightened" means.

Zhuo Yingxian is a frequent visitor here, although he is not a local, and he has only a half-knowledge about many things, but compared to Nie Yunhan who has never been here, he can pretend to be half a guide.

The two led the horse and walked on the wide road, chatting while walking.While listening to Zhuo Yingxian's introduction, Nie Yunhan scanned all the street scenes with sharp eyes.

"Because of the terrain, the farming of Wulingdu is a bit poor, but because the five mountains around here are rich in minerals, it can be regarded as a treasure city. In addition, the natural ferry crossing the Sunset River, the whole city can also be managed by trade. Very prosperous." Zhuo Ying said leisurely, "Due to the large number of merchants, there are many inns in the city, and there are also many taverns, teahouses, gambling houses, and brothels that attract merchants, and it will be more lively at night."

After hearing this, Nie Yunhan said: "In this way, this place is not like a peach blossom garden, but more like a den of pleasure. The merchants who have delivered the goods will definitely take the money and wander around, and I am afraid that many troubles will arise."

"That's right, it's really not peaceful here." Zhuo Ying said leisurely, "Fights and troubles are common here, but they can be solved with more money - the local county magistrate is used to collecting money, and he doesn't want to offend these businessmen who come and go, so Accepting money from others, these people will not stay for long anyway, he prefers to maintain the appearance of peace. The government servants here are also fierce in taking bribes."

"This is inevitable, otherwise it will not be the turn of the black market to run rampant."

Nie Yunhan looked at a man who had just come out of a tavern. This man was dressed in bunts, like a sailor on a boat. He was drunk in broad daylight. He hugged a romantic woman in the street and swaggered away. However, it doesn't matter if the behavior is proper or not.

Pedestrians on the road seemed to be familiar with this behavior, and no one gave them a second look.

Zhuo Yingxian noticed Nie Yunhan's gaze, and explained: "This is probably the 'Water Pixiu' people, who are tired of staying on the boat all day, and spend a lot of money when they go ashore. Everyone is not very willing to provoke them, otherwise they will hide from you and tolerate you, and it will be difficult for you to hide from them."

"The 'Water Pixiu' who control the water transportation?" Nie Yunhan looked away in disgust, "I heard that they help as the name suggests, asking for a very low price, they only eat but don't spit, and they have to get a fortune for everything."

"Well, I think you also know that if you can control the water transportation, the relationship between this group of people can go to the Ministry of Households. In front of money, there are only blood-red eyes and no conscience." Qian Liangguan, who also controls the lifeline of the people, can be said to have power in the hands of the government, who dares to touch him? The big tree above is stable, and the insects living on the big tree don’t have to worry about blood sucking, so they will naturally jump around happily.”

Nie Yunhan pursed his lips and remained silent. He had also heard about Chao Gang's corruption, but he never asked about political affairs and had been at the border for a long time, so he couldn't comment on things he didn't understand.

Zhuo Yingxian glanced at him, and suddenly asked: "Brother Han, don't you feel panicked by working hard for such an imperial court?"

Hearing this, Nie Yunhan stopped suddenly: "I am not for the imperial court, I am for the people of Dayao."

People like you, living hard.

Zhuo Yingxian looked at his resolute gaze, regretted it immediately, felt that his question was unfair, as if calling Nie Yunhan a lackey of the imperial court, he quickly apologized: "I didn't mean that..."

"Actually, for the court and for the people, it should be the same. It's a pity that the current court is too disappointing." Nie Yunhan looked at the bustling crowd with a calm expression, "Anyway, the old emperor is going to lose his head, and I hope the new king will This rotten government can be rectified. Ah Xian, don’t be cynical, it’s good for all of us to perform our duties.”

To fight with one's life, to be so open-minded, and to be a humble man who has not made any achievements in size, but here to compare pennies and pennies for others, in comparison, one's own mind is narrow-minded.

Zhuo Yingxian changed the subject: "How do we contact Brother Zuo and the others?"

Nie Yunhan took out Xunying from the pouch hanging on his waist and turned around a few times, but saw that the pointer on the disk did not move at all: "It must be because there is no magnet, if so, they will usually be near the most obvious markers in the city. Leave a mark. Take me to the largest inn in Wulingdu first."

The largest inn is called the Guanque Tower, which was named after the poet Wang Zhihuan's poem, and it is indeed extremely gorgeous.

This building is located on an important thoroughfare in the city. A few streets away, you can see the five-story building with bucket arches and double eaves. There is a wide yard surrounded by guest rooms, and there are as many as three floors.

The outer layer of the building is protected by a high wall, which separates the traveler's resting place from the bustling place.

Nie Yunhan led Zhuo Yingxian, searched around the outer wall, and quickly found the mark left by Zuo Hengqiu, followed the direction of the mark and turned into an alley. The mark suddenly disappeared at the end of the alley.

When the two were wondering, they saw a seven or eight-year-old child following them, looking at them curiously with big grape eyes.

Nie Yunhan put on a fierce face: "Child, what are you doing with us?"

The child was not afraid of him, squatted on the ground, took a tile and drew the same mark as Zuo Hengqiu's: "Are you looking for someone who painted this?"

Zhuo Yingxian's expression froze: "Why do you know how to draw?"

"Tch, it's that simple, just take a look." The boy walked up to Nie Yunhan, took out a small object from his pocket and handed it to him, "You look like the boss, do you recognize this?"

Nie Yunhan took the object, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he looked at Zhuo Yingxian with a gloomy expression: "It belongs to Brother Zuo!"

The author has something to say:

A Xian: My heart hurts, come and give me a hug.

Brother Han: Hey, the best daughter-in-law in the world.Hey, where do you put your hands...

Imagine Wulingdu as Las Vegas~

Volume [-] "Conspiracy Appears" is finished, and volume [-] "Red Luan Tribulation" is opened. This "robbery" does not refer to the two of them~ But the relationship between the two will make great progress in this volume, lol~
