At noon, in the east city of Lanling City, there was a restaurant called "Yizui Pavilion", which was opened by a orchid from the Western Regions. Babbling and singing ditties, the voice is melodious, and there are several graceful orchids dancing, and the beautiful ketone body is looming under the crimson tulle dress, which is fascinating and exotic.

The floor of the store is covered with cashmere carpets from the Western Regions, which are brightly colored. The guests just sit on the floor. The woman's gentle words kept persuading the wine, and for a while, the guests and orchids were playing, and the players were playing silk and bamboo, making it very lively.

There was a table of distinguished guests chatting near the window.

"Have you heard? The granddaughter of Sun Ge's hometown committed suicide last night!"

"What?! How could it be? Isn't Elder Sun Ge's granddaughter engaged to the eldest son of the governor's family, and will be married next month?"

"You don't know yet? I heard that the girl was taken away from her house the night before yesterday, and when she was sent back the next day... Oh, what a crime! I don't need to say more, you should understand..."

"This... who is so bold? Dare to openly kidnap people from the heavily guarded Ge Lao Mansion? It's shocking!"

"I've also heard that during this period of time, there have been many cases in Lanling City where unmarried girls have been kidnapped and their innocence has been tarnished. The whereabouts of the perpetrators are unpredictable. What kind of cultivator Hehuan is doing something crooked, using sorcery to harm other girls!"

"Acacia Sect? This is a den of prostitution! These cultivators usually say that they do good deeds and accumulate merit. Now that some of them do such outrageous things, no one comes out to take care of them?"

"Did you forget that we still have a Meng family in Lanling? This Meng family is a prestigious family of immortals. It seems that the victims of the families have united to ask the Meng family to come forward and find the real culprit for them. Let's see how the Meng family will solve this matter."

"That's right, the Meng family has always been in close contact with the dignitaries of Lanling City, and they are also very capable. Isn't it simple for them to catch that prostitute? But I'm afraid that these cultivators will collude and protect each other. Why? Take care of the life and death of us mortals."

"Well, not all cultivators are good. Some thieves and Taoists are all black-hearted and rotten things. If you have unmarried female relatives in your family, you have to take care of them and don't let those whores The thief got it!"

"What brother said is very true."

……

On the table separated from the guests by a screen, there were two jugs of Western Region wine, a plate of stir-fried winter amaranth, a plate of roasted lamb with pepper, a bowl of boneless sea bass, and two bowls of soup cakes as the staple food. Pour your own drink, while listening to the gossip of the guests next door.

He calculated the time in his heart, and thought that Ye Yaolan should have already got the things when he went out.

Just after thinking this way, sure enough, Ye Yaolan appeared from outside the door.

Ye Yaolan likes to wear red, and her looks are outstanding. In the past few days, because she followed Zhong Jue to scout for news in Lanling City, she dressed like a businessman.

He was wearing a dark red round-neck arrow jacket with narrow sleeves and a cinched waist. He was tall and tall, with sheepskin short boots and a pair of straight and slender legs. He stepped into the wine shop and immediately attracted the attention of many people, especially the wine companions. Hu Ji, when she saw Ye Yaolan, her eyes were straightened, and she also forgot about the guests at the other tables who were serving, and surrounded her with her skirts to greet him to take a seat, scrambling to accompany him to drink.

But Ye Yaolan's face was cold, she didn't even look at these enchanting beauties, her eyes wandered around the wine shop, she found where Zhong Jue was, and strode straight to him, those orchids understood, this is The handsome little brothers belonged to Zhong Jue, they looked at each other, and then spread out laughingly to serve the guests.

Ye Yaolan sat down opposite Zhong Jue, Zhong Jue immediately leaned forward and asked, "Have you got the things?"

"En." Ye Yaolan took out a jade tablet-like object from his sleeve, put it on the table, and moved it in front of Zhong Jue.

Zhong Jue picked it up and put it in the palm of his hand. The lines on the jade card began to distort and change, and finally two rows of words emerged. Zhong Jue turned the jade card to the light and studied the words carefully. After reading it, he was overjoyed. But without revealing the surface, he silently put the jade tablet back on the table, and the jade tablet returned to its original state.

He took out a piece of paper as thin as a cicada's wing from the storage bag, and took out a writing brush. The tip of the pen didn't get a drop of ink, but he wrote two lines of invisible characters on the paper with this pen.

After finishing writing, the paper was automatically folded into the shape of a paper crane. Zhong Jue picked up a pen and filled in the three invisible characters "Xiao Xuelan" on one of the wings of the paper crane. Fly out the window.

After all this was done, Zhong Jue had the time to look up at Ye Yaolan. He was holding a porcelain spoon, clumsily scooping a piece of perch meat into the plate. Added a pair of bowls and chopsticks, Zhong Jue has used the chopsticks, but the porcelain spoon has not been used.

"Hey, do you just like to snatch my things? What's wrong?" Zhong Jue snatched the spoon from Ye Yaolan's hand, and gave Ye Yaolan a dissatisfied sideways glance.

This is Dongshi. Zhong Jue told Ye Yaolan that the place where he picked up the things was in the west of the city. He walked back and forth for half a day without even drinking his saliva. I really feel aggrieved, if it were someone else, the table would have been overturned with his temper, but it was Zhong Jue, his creditor.

"You ordered two pots of wine and two bowls of noodle soup, why didn't you add two pairs of chopsticks?" Before eating, Ye Yaolan poured herself a glass of wine, with "You are ruthless and you are ungrateful" written all over her face, and said bluntly, "You Never worried about me."

"..." What does he care about? Does this person know how to be ashamed?Zhong Jue blushed, fearing that people would hear him, looked around, lowered his voice and said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Since I sat down, you haven't looked at me directly. It's true that I'm selling myself to you now, but you can't look down on me like this. From morning till now, I've traveled from west to east for your sake. You didn't even bother to drink your saliva, and now you are just borrowing a spoon, and you have to haggle over every detail with me, it's really chilling..."

"Stop! Please don't say it. It's my fault, I didn't think carefully, and I said the wrong thing! How about you go back to that Uncle Ye who cherishes words like gold? My teeth are about to fall out if you talk like that. It's gone!" Zhong Jue endured his teeth soreness, and interrupted Ye Yaolan's complaint, "You have become more and more eloquent these days, I underestimated you, and in a few days, even I will not be able to speak of you! "

Ye Yaolan raised her eyebrows, and hooked the corner of her mouth at Zhong Jue provocatively, "You teach well."

Zhong Jue, who was always eloquent, ate again at Ye Yaolan's place, handed over the spoon as if resigned to his fate, and said repeatedly: "Here, I'm afraid of you."

"I don't want a spoon now," Ye Yaolan shook her head, "I want chopsticks."

"It's all for you." Zhong Jue immediately picked up the chopsticks at hand and threw them over, just wanting to calm things down. Seeing Ye Yaolan pick them up, he suddenly remembered that the chopsticks were used by himself, and hurriedly added, "I have eaten them before, you Use it in reverse!"

When Xiao Xuelan woke up, it was almost past time, because she was preoccupied with the affairs of the Meng family's ancestral hall, so she did not leave the Meng mansion during the day. She wanted Meng Shuchen to take her to the ancestral hall to inquire again, but when it was near noon, Meng Zheng Sending someone to invite Meng Shuchen over to discuss the matter, this matter had to be pressed first before making plans.

He stayed alone in his new room to meditate and practice. He completed a set of qigong exercises for 36 days. The soreness and fatigue caused by last night's indulgence in his body have been swept away. He feels refreshed all over his body. , the depression of being teased by someone in private also dissipated.

After getting up from the couch, it was already dark outside. Meng Shuchen spent the whole afternoon when he went out. Fortunately, his yard was secluded and quiet, and he dismissed all the servants outside, but no one came to bother him.

Xiao Xuelan pushed open the door and went out, a crescent moon had already risen in the sky, green bamboos and phoenix trees were planted in the yard, all of which were weathered and noble plants, in the shade of the trees, there was a small pavilion built on the water , it is very elegant.

Xiao Xuelan walked outside the attic, when Meng Shuchen came in from the outside, he hurried all the way, as if he was going to meet someone, after seeing Xiao Xuelan from a distance, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, so he slowed down and walked Approaching Xiao Xuelan, he said in a gentle voice, "I thought the senior brother left, did he just come...or has he been waiting for me here?"

Xiao Xuelan glanced at him casually, not understanding that the two of them hadn't seen each other for a few hours. He looked at him eagerly as if he hadn't seen him for a long time, and said calmly, "Anyway, I'm going to come here at night, so why go?"

After getting the answer that Xiao Xuelan had never left, Meng Shuchen's heart fluttered, and he pursed his lips and smiled. Xiao Xuelan is a straight man, and he didn't notice his micro-expression and the charming thoughts hidden under his expression. He pointed to the small attic in front of him and asked. Said: "What's in here?"

"Brother, do you want to go in and have a look?" Meng Shuchen took Xiao Xuelan's hand and led him forward, "This is where I practice."

Xiao Xuelan felt that holding hands was the kind of nasty gesture that young lovers would do. He was not used to being so accommodating, so he twisted his wrist, withdrew his hand, and said coldly: "I'll go, I don't need you to hold me." .”

Meng Shuchen looked down at his empty hands, the warm touch was still lingering on his fingertips.

He was called to discuss matters for four full hours. During these four hours, he was thinking about Xiao Xuelan who stayed in the courtyard all the time, wondering if he left after he left, thinking about when he would come back, and wondering Wondering whether Xiao Xuelan would be annoyed by the unpleasant conversation between the two before they left, and worried whether he would be angry with herself.

He thought in a trance, senior brother surrendered himself to himself, and he should be angry in his heart. He really shouldn't disobey his senior brother's words. When he sees his senior brother again, no matter what kind of temper he loses again, he has to go along with it. Senior brother's wish, please comfort him, and don't let senior brother suffer any more grievances.

But Meng Shuchen still underestimated his own possessiveness. Once he got something and tasted it, he never wanted to let it go. Once Xiao Xuelan showed resistance and alienation towards him, he couldn't help pressing forward step by step.

He stretched out his hand again, held Xiao Xuelan's hand accurately, and put his hand into Xiao Xuelan's palm with his backhand. His slender and thick eyelashes covered the disappointment in his dark eyes. He blinked and raised his eyes, with gentle persistence in his eyes, and said with a smile : "The senior brother is holding me, I won't go."
