The speed of the men in black is also very fast, let alone how the killing skills are, just the silent, agile movements like flying flowers chasing the moon are amazing enough.

It's a pity that the night was too dark, and this group of people specially chose to go to various remote places on the corners of the walls and on the roofs of high houses. For a while, not many people saw them, and occasionally someone saw a black shadow passing by quickly. He would only think that his eyes were dazzled, and he would never think about it elsewhere, which made this skill seem like a night walk in brocade clothes.

Ordinary people cannot be blamed for their negligence.This is the foot of Wangyou Mountain, the territory of Miaoyinmen!Which desperate stick is so hard to think about, insisting on doing trouble in such a heavily guarded place? !

——Never mind, there really are tonight.

Although this town is not as large as other towns of the same level in the bustling world outside, its prosperity is not inferior to those outside. You have to weigh your own life when you step half a foot in; in other words, in such a bustling town where the Lantern Festival is just around the corner, if you want to find two people from the crowd, it is undoubtedly difficult. It's like finding a needle in a haystack.

"No hurry." After receiving the third group of subordinates who searched in the block allocated to him and still failed to find any results, the leader of the man in black was still very calm and relaxed, and even thought about facing him. My own subordinates emphasized again and again:

"With a thoughtful guy like Xue Shuyan by her side, she definitely wouldn't just do nothing to cover up, and she certainly wouldn't go all the way. She understands the truth of 'Love and don't hide, kill yourself' very well. "

"You must carefully search every corner, every street vendor and wine shop. As long as you look at a person who is 12-point beautiful, you can see that he is a beauty even if he is wearing a bamboo hat and a veil. If they are all attracted away, then it must be the two of them!"

The people in black looked at each other, thinking that Jiang is still old and spicy, so they all bowed down and replied unanimously: "Thank you for the reminder!"

Just when they felt that they had mastered the "stunt" called "How to recognize the master of Miaoyinmen from the crowd at a glance", which sounds very powerful, but seems to be useless when you think about it carefully, Xue Shuyan had already brought Watching Du Yunge finish buying candied haws, he sat down in a tavern.

Du Yunge ate the candied haws and felt that it was a bit different from the bunch Feng Chengchun brought back to her in her memory. The things that were supposed to be sweet and sour were now mostly sour, so she ate the sugar coating on it in two bites. Wanting to throw it away, Xue Shuyan picked it up, gnawed on the hawthorn quite naturally, and took Du Yunge to a remote tavern by the way:

"If Yunge likes to eat sweet things, the wine rice balls made by this family are pretty good."

The owner of this tavern is an old woman, her face is as wrinkled as dry and cracked bark, her lips are curled in because all her teeth have fallen out, not to mention her hair is as white as a fine cotton comb It's like wearing a wig on your head, and you can't see any color other than white.

However, she is different from those old people of her age who tremble and shake every step. Even if she is so old, the owner of the tavern walks extraordinarily steady, and can even open a bottle from the wine cellar with his own hands. A pot of rice wine came up, half of it was poured into the pot, and the other half was warmed with sweet-scented osmanthus and served in front of the two of them. Du Yunge, who also had a leisurely and elegant demeanor, murmured:

"...Miss Du?"

Du Yunge was about to respond, but the old man shook his head mockingly, and sighed: "Look at my memory. Miss Du has been away for so many years, why do I always remember wrongly?"

"So, you are the little sect master?"

Few people called Du Yunge that, because since Du Chanjuan passed away, she has been the master of the Miaoyin Sect with all the integrity and integrity. Few people compared her with her mother, which made Du Yunge stunned for a moment before realizing:

"I am the current head of the Miaoyin Sect."

"A rare guest." The old woman sighed first, then went out to take down the lantern at the door, locked the door behind her, and then lit an oil lamp in the dim room:

"Small door master, wait a moment, I'll make a bowl of glutinous rice balls for you to eat."

Looking at the old man's trembling back, Du Yunge couldn't bear it, and really wanted to help, but when she thought about it, she realized that she didn't know anything about cooking, so she just stood there at a loss, not knowing what to do up.Fortunately, Xue Shuyan patted the back of her hand lightly at this time, and said:

"Every time I go down the mountain, I come here to eat something."

Her words were too brief, even Du Yunge couldn't fully interpret what she had left, so she could only look into Xue Shuyan's eyes suspiciously.Excited by such clear eyes, Xue Shuyan slowly spoke the second half of the words:

"One time when I ate the Jiuniang Yuanzi here, it was very sweet. Although I didn't like it, I thought you must like it, so I always wanted to take you to eat it."

The two of them sat side by side in the silence and darkness of the room. Under the dim light, people came and went outside, and no one ever wanted to set foot in this room. It looked dilapidated, let alone during the Lantern Festival. With the tavern closed so early, Xue Shuyan, who was already lonely and cold, felt more and more out of place on such a happy family day.

But it's not wrong to think about it carefully, because the Hu people don't celebrate the Lantern Festival.

Du Yunge suddenly felt a little inexplicably sad.She thought for a while, then gently closed Xue Shuyan's hands with her backhand, tried her best to warm Xue Shuyan's slightly cold fingertips with her palms, and said in a low voice:

"In the future, I will spend all the good days with my senior sister."

Before Xue Shuyan had time to say anything, the old woman who was still slowly cooking glutinous rice balls with rice wine suddenly laughed briefly.

This laugh was not aimed at Du Yunge and Xue Shuyan.Just relying on the deep melancholy and slight sorrow that came out of nowhere in this laugh, one can know that this must be a very long story. I am afraid that the two juniors who have grown up to the front are not even born yet. The story has already been understood in a hurry early, so it can only be left as a chat for now:

"That's what Ms. Du told her back then."

Du Yunge was startled, and almost knocked over the wine cup on the table. Fortunately, Xue Shuyan quickly fished it back, and the rice wine contained in it was still not spilled. Whether you are envious or extremely jealous, you have to give a loud applause, what a handsome skill!

However, there was no one else here, only an old man who was still making a bowl of glutinous rice balls with rice wine in an orderly and slow manner, and Du Yunge, whose attention had been taken away by this brief sentence just now, so naturally no one cheered for her.

"Old man, what did you say?"

"I said..." In the steam that slowly evaporated on the stove, the face of the old man was blurred, and it seemed that when she spoke, she became softer and ethereal, as if she had sunk into a certain memory, Like telling a long, long story:

"That was the Shangyuan Festival many years ago."

"It was windy and snowy that night. It was not a good time to do business at all. The world was very chaotic, and there were not so many lanterns and so many people on the street. I was going to be lazy and close the shop. A man with a sword The pretty girl and another girl came in, reserved my shop, and said they wanted a bowl of rice dumplings to warm up."

"I said that if you are a girl who spends a lot of money, I will not refuse to make it for you just for the money, but in this cold weather, you have to use glutinous rice flour and meatballs to make it, and you have to heat the stove and take rice wine to make it." , It must take half an hour before and after, and I am afraid that the girl will be hungry, so please ask the girl to change to other snacks that can be prepared quickly."

"The girl who ordered the Jiuniang Yuanzi was stunned, then smiled and said, she is either hungry, or she has no taste in her mouth during pregnancy, she just wants to try something new, it doesn't matter how fast it is, but it must be good."

The old woman slowly put the glutinous rice balls in her hand into the pot one by one, and the steaming steam became thicker and thicker: "I took a closer look and found that this girl is beautiful, but her abdomen is already a little protruding." It looks like it's getting up, it must be the third and fourth months of pregnancy. At this time, people's taste is the most delicious. If you are interested, you can also eat black-faced buns and wild vegetables, but if you have morning sickness, what is it? You can’t even eat the delicacies.”

"I even opened the cellar and wanted to go down to find some glutinous rice flour, but only after I went down did I find out that it was broken. The glutinous rice flour was used for making glutinous rice balls the day before, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to make many balls. I thought this I was afraid that a business would fail like this, so I had to go up to the girl and tell the girl that there are no more dumplings, only glutinous rice balls, but the pretty girl was very kind, and after hearing that, she smiled and said, glutinous rice balls are just glutinous rice balls, after all, there is not much difference."

"After I made rice wine glutinous rice balls and brought them over, the girl who had been silent next to her spoke, but her mouth was the accent of someone from Liaodong, saying that she should test the poison first, pretty girl But he said, it’s okay, it’s all like this anyway, isn’t Haosi and Laihuo the same?”

Jiuniangyuanzi are not easy to make, but the rice wine glutinous rice balls are really quick to make. The owner of the tavern brought up a whole bowl of steaming sweet soup with the effort of talking:

"The Liaodong girl immediately looked very sad, and said, it's not the fault of the sect master, why bother to spoil yourself so much? I didn't know it was Du Chanjuan, the master of the Miaoyin sect until then. I was shocked. ah……"

The old woman shook her head and nodded again, and said with a smile: "I thought at the time, this is really a fairy-like character, no wonder the whole room lit up when she came in."

She pointed to the place where Du Yunge and Xue Shuyan were sitting, and said:

"Then Ms. Du also laughed, saying that she shouldn't have said such stupid things, at worst, she would just spend the rest of her life with everyone on Wangyou Mountain."

"Before the girl said anything, three more people came outside the door. First, a girl who spoke Bashu dialect and looked weak grabbed the two of them and criticized them fiercely, saying that she would come down to eat in the cold weather. The stuff really came home; another girl who looked nice and chubby was mediating and took out her purse to pay; there was a girl in all black—hey, I didn't say that, she really looked like this guy It looks like it was carved out of the same mold!" The old woman pointed to Xue Shuyan, who carried Du Yunge's Nine Heavens Ring on his back and wore a Yanling knife on his waist:

"It's cold, not popular at all, and she keeps holding her sword like a little lover, as if something in this tavern can harm their group."

Du Yunge found out in a daze that the life trajectories of the two generations of their Miaoyin family, who were in the same line, coincided so coincidentally in a dilapidated tavern.She subconsciously looked around, as if Feng Chengchun was still the well-known martial arts "although not good at martial arts but can control the world" Chun Hufa, and Du Chanjuan didn't bleed profusely when she was born. Death, the sky outside is still the same as that snowy night many years ago, if you chase after them, you may still see the figures of the people from the previous generation of the Miaoyin family supporting each other, talking and leaving with a smile .

——Still clearly not yet old, just the back of the good years in the heyday of spring and autumn.Just as Ying was playing the sword and screaming, and was singing and dancing, but who would have thought that a sudden change would happen, and among the five people who seemed to walk side by side forever, it was their leader and the one who brought them together first. Take a step.

Today, when the fire trees and silver flowers are united, and the iron lock of the star bridge is opened, the snowstorm many years ago suddenly comes back again.Feng Chengchun who has been speaking Liaodong dialect for decades, Xia Yeshuang who is perseveringly speaking Bashu dialect under the attack of Liaodong dialect, Qiuyueman who loves money like his life, Yun Anxue who is crazy about Wu, and red makeup with a sword In this old man's description, Du Chanjuan and the others became more lively than ever before, and finally completely completed the good times of the previous generation that Du Yunge missed and did not understand.

She was fascinated by it when she heard the old man let out a long sigh and said:

"After all, Ms. Du couldn't take a few mouthfuls of the bowl of glutinous rice balls with rice wine. She was caught by the other three people who rushed to find someone. They said they had something important to do. But she didn’t eat anything, which was a bit unreasonable, so she smiled at me and said that after the beginning of spring, she will give birth, and she must come down the mountain to eat a bowl of glutinous rice balls with rice wine.”

"Ms. Liaodong asked her, didn't she want to eat glutinous rice balls? Why did she suddenly change her mind? Ms. Du smiled and shook her head, saying that there are so many unchanging things in the world. She just suddenly changed her mind and felt that she had changed halfway. With established thoughts, I think it would be good to eat glutinous rice balls with rice wine, so why not let her eat them?"

"The group of people hurriedly nodded and said that after you take care of your health, sect master, we will not care about you even if you drink from the wine jar, please be careful and go back to the mountain quickly. Ms. Du is about to go out, and she also told me that I must come to eat a bowl next spring, and please prepare glutinous rice balls filled with bean paste for her in advance."

Du Yunge already vaguely knew what the ending of this story was——

The old woman said in a low voice: "Later, Ms. Du... never came again."

——Du Chanjuan was bleeding profusely because of dystocia when giving birth to Du Yunge, even Xia Yeshuang tried her best but failed to save her life, and finally died in the spring when everything recovered on Wangyou Mountain.

——All things are revived, warblers fly and grass grows, but there is nothing anymore. I hope people will last forever and share the joys and joys of thousands of miles away.

"Little door master, please eat a bowl of rice wine glutinous rice balls with me, and it will be my thoughts for many years." The old woman clapped her hands, as if she had fulfilled her lifelong wish, she walked slowly down the railing Go, go to the cellar to get the wine again.Only then did Xue Shuyan look at Du Yunge, and said in a low voice:

"I'm sorry, I really don't know such a story."

If it were someone else, it would not be an exaggeration to claim credit for being able to let the head of his family hear such a touching story about blood relatives, but Xue Shuyan would never do that.This person has always only told the truth, even if the truth she told might make the other party spit out a mouthful of old blood, she would not add the slightest pretense, let alone take this achievement that did not belong to her. on oneself:

"I wanted to bring you to eat Jiuniang Yuanzi... If you want to eat, then I will bring you here next time."

"No need." Du Yunge held the spoon in his mouth, and felt that the rice wine in this sip was sweet and smooth, and the glutinous rice balls stuffed with bean paste were also delicate and delicious. After pairing with warm rice wine, it neutralized the sweet bean paste often Some of the feeling of being a bit greasy, on the contrary, better highlights the fragrance of beans and the mellowness of rice wine:

"I suddenly liked this too."

"If there is a chance next time, I will invite Senior Sister to eat once."

That being the case, Xue Shuyan didn't say anything anymore, but slowly ate the plate of peanuts and pickled radish that the store gave him as an accompaniment to the wine.After Du Yunge finished eating, the two left hand in hand. Before leaving, they did not forget to leave enough silver taels on the table, and then closed the door for the shop owner.

After Hui Zhang went out, Xue Shuyan and Du Yunge walked silently for a while, then passed through a narrow street, and took a shortcut to go up the mountain.Xue Shuyan has gone down the mountain for countless times. I am afraid that the sum of hands and feet cannot be counted. Naturally, this shortcut is very inaccessible. The doors of every house on the side of the road are closed, and there are faint laughter coming from the door. It is revealed from the wall, and if you look closely, you can still see the dim but warm light leaking from the door.

Although it is the Lantern Festival, firecrackers should not be set off logically, but some people like to be lively, so they set off firecrackers at the door for a long time after dinner before going out to watch the lanterns.After getting away from the main street with the most people and constant streams, the smell of lamp oil and the smell of various foods that had been lingering in the air slowly disappeared, replaced by a faint smell of gunpowder.

The remaining bustling fragments, combined with the footsteps of only two people on the entire narrow street, made this moment even more lonely.

Just as Du Yunge was about to say something, Xue Shuyan's expression froze, Dang Shida hugged her up, exerted all his strength, and took Du Yunge to take a shortcut to Wangyou Mountain and galloped.

Before Du Yunge could react, he was choked hard by the night wind blowing towards him.However, she knew very well that Xue Shuyan would never do anything for no reason, so she hugged Xue Shuyan's waist tightly. In this way, no matter how fast Xue Shuyan walked up the mountain, she didn't have to just keep paying attention. Distracted by hugging her tightly.

It wasn't until she finished this series of actions that she looked behind her, and Dang even took a deep breath:

Behind Xue Shuyan, at least a dozen men in black were still chasing after them. This group of people still held sharp swords in their hands, and they were about to put them to death here!

Fortunately, although this group of people are good at lightness kung fu, they are still so short of fire. When they followed behind them, there was no one on the narrow street, but Xue Shuyan heard it all at once, so Xue Shuyan was able to act decisively. In response, he led her up Wangyou Mountain.

Obviously the two are returning guests, but they acted like thieves who wanted to break into the mountain.Fortunately, when the mountain was closed, Du Yunge and Xue Shuyan participated in the whole process, so that this venture would not end up like a real gangster who was half dead or even dead.

When the two rushed up to Wangyou Mountain in one breath, even a master like Xue Shuyan was a little panting when he put Du Yunge down at the gate of the mountain, and there was a fine line of sweat oozing from his temples, and Du Yunge became afraid.She hastily took out a handkerchief from her bosom, wiped off Xue Shuyan's sweat, and wanted to say something, but felt that at this moment, what she said was too superficial, and finally said to Xue Shuyan seriously:

"Thank you, senior sister, for saving my life again. After several rescues, it can be said that my life was given by my senior sister. Even if I die ten thousand times, it will not be enough to repay me. If my senior sister wants anything in the future, just ask me."

If this sentence of infinitely ambiguous life was said by someone else, it would almost mean "promise with one's body", but Xue Shuyan really knows Du Yunge too well.She said "ten thousand deaths are not enough to repay", which means that she really doesn't know how to repay, so naturally she doesn't mean anything messy.

It's just that she glanced sideways and saw Du Yunge's hand wiping her sweat, and suddenly felt a little happy, but she didn't have time to think about the reason for this happy emotion. After thinking about it, she felt that it was not good to be so embarrassed , held Du Yunge's hand, and said in a low voice:

"It's spring again."

Before Du Yunge had time to answer her, she heard a sound from behind that seemed to be the sound of a lamp falling to the ground. Before she turned around, she heard the very iconic Feng Chengchun's voice, with a little Trembling, as if stimulated by these two people:

"...What are you two doing?!"

Du Yunge turned around quickly, and saw Feng Chengchun who was so stunned that he almost doubted his life, and the lantern that fell on the ground.

Before she could speak, Feng Chengchun hurriedly picked up the lantern, wiped the dust off it carefully, hung it on the high place of the Miaoyin Gate, and explained:

"It's fifteen, and it's the New Year's Eve. I have to light a light for Chanjuan at the gate to illuminate the way. If she gets lost and can't go back, it will be troublesome."

"It's the two of you, you're both back, why don't you come in? You don't even say hello! Now, I have to go to the kitchen to see if anyone is awake, and bring you two bowls of hot soup. Are you hungry? Hungry? If you’re hungry, I’ll give you another noodle and lay an egg in?”

"That's unnecessary." Du Yunge took a deep breath, and whispered to Feng Chengchun:

"Protector Chun, we were hunted down the mountain just now."

Fengcheng Chunhuo is so big, I have never seen a stick that dared to play tricks at the foot of Wangyou Mountain.Her eyes were wide open, and before she could react, Du Yunge added another sentence:

"The ones chasing us... are the Miaoyinmen's own family."
