Looking for plums under the moon

In the early morning, as soon as the cock crowed, Ling Guyue got up and opened the door, only to find a person leaning against the door.

As the wooden door opened with a 'squeak', the man almost fell over.

Ling Guyue frowned, only to see Xiao Chou huddled at the door, rubbing his sleepy eyes, seeing that it was him who opened the door, she hurriedly stood up, "Senior brother!"

Hearing his voice, it was very hoarse.

"What are you doing at the door?" Ling Guyue saw that he was wearing thin clothes, his face was flushed, and he seemed to be suffering from a cold.

"I was waiting for senior brother, last night..." Xiao Qiu explained to him anxiously, his eyes paused, but he closed his mouth when he saw Shen Luo.

"How was last night?" Shen Luo walked slowly to Ling Guyue's side, his face remained unchanged and said: "Senior Brother Nian doesn't care about you in the past, you should go."

Xiao Qiu shook his head again and again, "I'm not leaving! Shen...Brother Shen, I know you don't like me, but I definitely don't mean to harm you! Senior brother, trust me..." When he spoke excitedly, he coughed again.

Ling Guyue looked at Xiao Qiu, the person in front of her was very different from the sallow and skinny little beggar when she first met, he looked like a normal young man, he said calmly: "I used to trust you very much. The temple in front of the city said that you will always follow me, I thought, you really treat me as an elder brother," he shook his head and sighed, "but I never thought that...in exchange for it, it was your deception. Forget it! You use me to avenge Master. After all, you are young and have been deceived by Master. If you can rein in the precipice, I would still like you to come back, but you clearly promised me to let go yesterday. I want to kill him in the room. Do you know that he has lost all his martial arts now, if I come a step later... do you really want me to become the lone star of Tiansha without a relative?"

Ling Guyue couldn't hide the disappointment in her eyes.

Xiao Qiu was taken aback, tears rolled in his eyes, he choked up and said, "I didn't mean to hurt Big Brother Shen..."

Shen Luo gave Ling Guyue a complicated look, then turned to Xiao Qiu and said, "Whether you mean it or not, don't show up again in the future."

Xiao Qiu's nose turned red, and he choked, "Shen... Big brother..."

Shen Luo said: "Don't think calling me Big Brother Sheng is flattering you, I won't accept that."

Xiao Qiu had no choice but to look at Ling Guyue again, "Brother..."

Seeing him crying so hard, Ling Guyue was half annoyed and half sad, she only hated herself for not being able to recognize people clearly, so she said "Don't follow me anymore!" and walked away.

Xiao Qiu suddenly stepped forward and hugged his arm, crying: "Brother, it's all my fault...you give me another chance! I...cough cough, I promise I won't make mistakes again!"

Ling Guyue was about to withdraw her hand when she suddenly noticed that Xiao Qiu's fingers were writing stroke by stroke on the palm of his hand intentionally or unintentionally, as if conveying some message, so she cast a questioning look at him, "You..."

Xiaoqiu still had tears in his eyes, "Brother... I'm sorry, Xiaochou was wrong! Xiaochou will never hurt Big Brother Shen again! I beg you, brother, don't leave me..."

A little bit, a little bit, and a little bit, Xiao Qiu wrote a few words in the palm of his hand at an extremely fast speed.But looking at his expression, he didn't show the slightest...

Why does it have to be written in his palm?Is it convenient to say it out?

"Senior brother, what I said that day was from the bottom of my heart... I definitely didn't intend to lie to senior brother!" Xiao Qiu grabbed his hand, crying from an angle that no one else could see, while writing.

Ling Guyue lowered her brows slightly, did not push him away, and carefully identified the words in her heart: Shen, Luo, No, Yes...

there is nothing?

When Xiao Qiu wanted to continue writing, Shen Luo grabbed his arm and pushed him aside.

"Don't pester him any longer." Shen Luo cast a warning glance at him, turned around and softened his expression, and said to Ling Guyue: "Brother, ignore him, let's go."

Although Ling Guyue was puzzled by Xiao Qiu's unfinished words, since it was inconvenient for him to say it in front of Shen Luo, there was naturally a reason for him.

Ling Guyue followed Shen down the stairs, and when she passed by Xiao Qiu, from the corner of her eye, he seemed to wink at her.

Xiao Qiu made a face at Shen Luo, then shook his head at Ling Guyue.

what does he mean?Ling Guyue looked at the black figure in front of her, a trace of bewilderment flashed in her eyes.

Is it to tell him to be careful about sinking?Or does he have a revenge strategy to sow discord?

Walking to the second floor, the two sat by the window and ordered a pot of tea and a few plates of pastries.

"Guest officer, the storyteller will be here after a while. If you two have nothing to do, you may as well sit here and listen. Everyone in the street likes to listen to the books that you are talking about!" A young boy brought some refreshments. , kindly reminded.

Storyteller?Ling Guyue's heart moved, and she asked, "Which book are you talking about today?"

"Uh... I don't know about that," the boy replied while putting the plate on the table, "Mr. teaches different books every time. I've never heard the same one!"

Ling Guyue nodded, took a sip of tea, and became a little curious about Mr. Storyteller.

Not long after, there was a sound of "pop!", followed by bursts of applause from the lobby on the first floor.

"Sir is here!"

Ling Guyue couldn't help looking down through the fence.

I saw an octogenarian old man wearing a blue-gray gown sitting on the stage facing the door. There was a long table in front of him. On the table was a cup of tea and a piece of wood.

Xingmu rang two more times to stop, and for a while, no matter whether it was the clerk of the inn or the guests who came to eat and drink tea, they all fell silent and turned their eyes to the old man on the stage.

Although the old man was old and his temples were all white, he was in good spirits. He drank a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then he began to read the opening poem: "The sword is in the wind and the Wu Gouwan, and the man who buried the bones in the yellow sand has not yet returned. Crazy men and women, the world of mortals enters love in a dream!"

When he first opened his mouth, his voice was like a bell. In an instant, everyone in the inn fell silent and listened carefully to his speech.

"Crack!" The old man paused in his hand, "What I'm going to talk about today is not a book..."

Hearing these words, the audience immediately whispered.

"Sir, you don't talk about books today?"

Ling Guyue also laughed and said: "The storyteller doesn't tell the story, so what does he say?"

Shen Luo was not interested in storytelling, he just sipped his tea and looked out the window.

The old man on the stage said leisurely: "This time what I want to talk about is an anecdote in the world."

"Anecdote about Jianghu?" Someone said joyfully, "I like hearing these stories the most, sir, tell me quickly!"

Another scolded: "Don't interrupt!"

The old man cleared his throat, "Everyone, please be safe and don't be impatient, just listen to me carefully..." As the wake-up tree settled down, the old man suddenly became calm and majestic, and his bright voice pierced through In every corner of the inn, even Shen Luo couldn't help but be attracted by him.

"It is said that 20 years ago, there was a famous female general in the imperial court. She led an army of [-] to quell the northern enemies. She was appreciated by the emperor, but when the emperor asked her what she wanted, she made a request." The old man glanced down the stage, and said unhurriedly: "What request? Pa——that is the request before the pardon. To the prince, Johnny To!"

Hearing this name, Ling Guyue's eyes flashed, and she looked towards the stage.

The old man had a bit of regret on his face, "Unfortunately, after the emperor heard this request, Long Yan was furious, not only dismissed the position of the female general, but also immediately ordered the family of Du's princes and grandchildren to be beheaded on the street. Tell me... a A female general who has repeatedly made outstanding achievements, should have been a hero who will go down in history, but she ended up like this because of a remnant of the previous dynasty..."

Everyone sighed unceasingly, but heard the old man raise his voice: "Why do you think this female general went to such lengths to save Prince Du?"

"This... these two people are totally out of reach. Why did the female general save him?"

"That's right, the nobles of the previous dynasty were no ordinary criminals, how could the emperor pardon them?"

Seeing that everyone was arguing endlessly, Ling Guyue got up, leaned against the carved fence and said, "Could it be that this female general likes Prince Du?"

Hearing this sound like a clear spring, everyone in the lobby looked up one after another, and saw a young man in red holding on to a celadon cup, with a smile on his face and an unparalleled appearance. Seven souls and three spirits.

The old man glanced at Ling Guyue, smiled mysteriously, and pulled everyone's souls back, "This judge is a bit off the mark, the female general is actually Prince Du's concubine, but the two of them are not husband and wife. "

Ling Guyue frowned. Last time, Prince Du clearly said that Qiu Chenggu liked the real Prince Du. It stands to reason that since the two are in love with each other, and they have the name of husband and wife, why can't they...

The old man laughed, "Everyone doesn't know, this female general is a descendant of the former famous general Qiu, her name is Qiu Chenggu, and she has been engaged to Prince Du since she was a child. It's just that young people are crazy and don't want to embroider girls in their boudoirs." Red, tends to dance swords in the rivers and lakes, and ran into Jiang He, the prodigal son of the rivers and lakes when wandering outside. That Jiang He was also a handsome man, with a long sword in white and a chivalrous style. The two hit it off immediately, and then Qiu Chenggu ran away from home and wandered around the world with Jiang He .”

Ling Guyue became more and more puzzled, the current Prince Du was Jiang He, if Qiu Chenggu really wandered with Jiang He, why did he say that Prince Du was the only one in Qiu Chenggu's heart and he died for Prince Du?

"Speaking of escaping from marriage, at that time, the vigor of the past was exhausted, the building was about to collapse, and the world of the Du family was on the verge of collapse. General Qiu was far away at the border, old and defeated, and ended up being killed in battle. Prince Du ran away from his fiancée, The old father-in-law also died for the country, so young and energetic, he ran to the border and led troops to fight, and the fight lasted for two years."

The old man's tone gradually turned sad, "We are far away in the rivers and lakes, and we don't hear the worries of the temple. When Qiu Chenggu knows that his father is dead and the country is about to perish, it will be too late. The two agreed to go to the border to help Prince Du fight back the enemy. In a battle, Jiang He was accidentally captured by the enemy in order to save Qiu Chenggu. In front of the Baichi City Tower, the enemy used Jiang He to threaten Qiu Chenggu to open the city gate in order to capture the city. Qiu Chenggu refused with tears, and the enemy immediately In front of the soldiers all over the city, they divided Jiang He's five horses into pieces, and let the vultures eat his bones. Qiu Chenggu put his finger into his palm and gritted his teeth and shouted: "I lost my love today, and I will pay it back a hundredfold in the future!"

The old man's eyes flickered, Xingmu was gloomy, and sighed: "After Jiang He died, there was no bones left, only a sword that was close to him. Hey! He has been a knight-errant for 20 years, and now he is the sweetheart of Huangzhong..."

The audience is also sighing.

The old man suddenly took the case, and immediately restrained his sadness, and said solemnly: "Afterwards, Qiu Chenggu and Du Wangye led the remnant soldiers to resist angrily, but the disparity in the strength of the two sides was too great. At this time, there was news from Jinling that the southern feudal lord was dissatisfied with the court's actions. He took the lead in the rebellion and overthrew the rule of the Du family. Now the world has changed hands. In addition to recruiting famous ministers and wise men, the new king also vigorously hunted down the remnants of the previous dynasty. When the two heard the news, they had to avoid the border and fled all the way to the Western Regions. A year later , Qiu Chenggu returned to Jinling from the Western Regions, paid a visit to the emperor and was willing to recruit, but the condition was that she would be given [-] soldiers and horses to go to the north to defeat the enemy. The emperor was eager for someone to guard the border for him, so he approved it immediately, and appointed Qiu Chenggu as a general. Let her lead the army to Lingbei."

"The cities in Lingbei are all dilapidated. Thinking of the past, Qiu Chenggu shed tears on the loess, poured strong wine on the sword to honor the soldiers, and promised in front of the [-] troops: I will not destroy the enemy's country, and I will never return to my hometown! Later, she brought these strong men to destroy The whole northern country... On the way of triumphant return, countless people cheered and called her the heroine general, but this female general is not as beautiful as she appears on the surface. I don't know what disease she has. As the world weakens, Prince Du traveled all over the world, exchanging all the treasures in the old palace for famous medicines to treat her, but it still didn't work."

"One day, Lord Du met Lin Qingfeng, one of the famous heroes of Jianghu, in the south of the Yangtze River. He exchanged a Wanhai glass cup for the news of Huiyangmu. It is said that the Wanhai glass cup can dissolve all poisons in the world. And Huiyangmu is a kind of miracle medicine that can bring people back to life. Du Wangye found out the whereabouts of Huiyangmu and returned to Jinling. Regardless of the risk of being caught by the emperor, he stole a piece of Huiyangmu from the palace for Qiu Chenggu... ..."

"With Huiyangmu, can the female general recover from her illness?" someone asked.

The old man said with a smile: "I don't know about this, but Lord Du was discovered and sent to death row... When Qiu Chenggu was at his wit's end, it happened that the emperor's youngest sister, the Seventh Princess, was kidnapped by the demon sect of the Western Regions. Rescue the princess and fulfill all his demands! Qiu Chenggu went to the Western Regions alone in order to repay Prince Du. At that time, she was dressed in white and held Jiang He's sword in her hand. In the Western Regions, Qiu Chenggu had dozens of wounds all over her body, and her white clothes were blood-stained and torn... She returned to Jinling with all her might, and only then did the opening part..."

"Then...then the emperor executed Duke Du to death in the end, isn't that a breach of trust?"

The old man shook his head, and said slowly: "Since ancient times, gentlemen have kept their promises, how could the emperor break his promise?"

"Then Prince Du was still beheaded...the whole world knows about it!"

The old man twisted his beard and said, "How do you know that the one who died was Prince Du?"

"Ah?" Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, "The people in Jinling saw that Prince Du died under the executioner's hands. This matter has been rumored and the whole country knows it. Could it be true?"

The old man narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Okay...the story for this time has been finished, if you want to hear it again, wait for the next time..." He blew on the floating leaves in the tea cup, took a sip, and got up to leave.

"Sir, don't leave in a hurry... what happened next?" Everyone asked reluctantly.

"Later?" The old man's footsteps paused, "Later... Jiang Lang didn't regret his body and eliminate his karma, so he waited on the bridge for three years."

"This... what kind of ending is this? Could it be that the female general is not with Prince Du?"

Hearing this, the old man just laughed, opened the curtain, and walked out.

The inn was buzzing and arguing endlessly.

Ling Guyue was fascinated by what she heard, and when she turned around, she suddenly met Shen Luo's pair of black eyes, as deep as an ancient pool, but there were little ripples when she looked at herself.

"Brother?" Seeing his blank look, Shen Luo called him softly.

Ling Guyue was startled, she quickly sat down, avoided his gaze and looked out of the window quietly, with mixed emotions in her heart.
