Reborn I am the sect leader
Work related
He said, "Brother, you are so violent, you will definitely not find a wife in the future!" Then he ran away laughing and jumping.
Lan Yu shook her head helplessly, at such an age she still looks like a child, jumping up and down every day, grinning when she opens her mouth, and impatient, she might be taken advantage of by those who want to go out of the mountain gate.
Xiao Zheng's main house is not on the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain is a place for people to retreat and practice.Lan Yu arrived there not too far away, and Xiao Zheng only sat on the position of the leader of the martial arts in his 50s.
"Master, the disciple is back." Sapphire bowed with her sword in her arms.
"Yu'er, you are back. How is it going down the mountain?" Xiao Zheng's voice was slow and deep.
"All is well."
"I heard that you asked Liu Jie to send Li Mingzhi back to Beijing?"
"Ah."
"Hmm... well done." Xiao Zheng drank a cup of tea slowly, "If that child Xifeng is still alive, he must have become one of the best masters in the Jianghu by now. Li Mingzhi really did something wrong!"
Lan Yu didn't speak, Xiao Zheng said again after a while, "What's wrong with the young people nowadays? They are all trapped by love, and they don't even want a bright future. Look at your big brother, you actually threw down my weapon for a demon cultist." Old bone, left the mountain gate."
Lan Yu thought to herself that Mu Yi really had to talk. When his senior brother got married with Xinyun, nothing happened to the Lan family, and Lan Yu was quite supportive of his senior brother's affairs.Because at that time, even though the Chaotic Flower Palace was called the Devil's Cult, Lan Yu didn't see them doing any serious and unreasonable things.He has a very good relationship with his elder brother, and he has met Xinyun twice, and feels that although that person is a bit arrogant by nature, it is rare for him to be sincere to his elder brother, so he feels that the contradiction between good and evil is just a cloud.
But now that the Lan family has been exterminated, even though they know that this happened after Xinyun severed ties with Luanhua Palace, they still can't get over this hurdle in their hearts.Those kind words that he could easily say for his elder brother in the past are now stuck in his throat and he can't say a word.
Xiao Zheng continued, "Recently, there are people chasing and killing your elder brother in the Jianghu, some idiots! How dare you run after Zhongtian so blatantly in the past? It's really a tiger in Pingyang being bullied by dogs. Zhongtian had a lot of prestige in the Jianghu back then, but now He actually ended up in a situation where the whole martial arts world was thrown into trouble."
"Eldest brother is highly skilled in martial arts, master don't have to worry."
"Can I not know Zhongtian's kung fu? I just feel sorry for him. I brought up that child with my own hands, and I will live a good life, but I have to live that kind of life like a street mouse." Xiao Zheng calmed down. Said, "Do you know why they chased and killed your brother?"
Lan Yu didn't understand Xiao Zheng's intentions. Almost everyone knew the reason why the people in the Jianghu chased and killed the senior brother. Why did the master make such a move, so she answered truthfully, "Xinyun used to be from the Luanhua Palace, and the senior brother was killed by him." It is not surprising that people suspect that they have a map of the Luanhua Palace."
"Yu'er." Xiao Zheng sighed.
"The disciple is here."
"Tell the master honestly, is the map of Chaos Flower Palace in your place?"
Sapphire's eyes remained calm, and she replied, "I'm not here."
Xiao Zheng stared at Lan Yu for a long time, before sighing, "Forget it, I, an old man, can't take care of young people's affairs. In two months, there will be the five-year martial arts leader's conference. What are your plans?"
"The disciple is not talented, but he is willing to fight for the master."
"Except for Zhongtian, you have always been my most proud disciple. I am afraid that no one in this No. [-] Jianzhuang can match your martial arts. It's just that you are still a few years away from the position of the leader of the martial arts. I don't think you will be able to do so this time." I hope." Xiao Zheng sighed again, "Oh, if your senior brother hadn't had this incident, the position of the leader of this martial arts conference should be in his pocket."
"As a teacher, I don't care too much about this person. The position of the leader changes all the year round. I am afraid that you will cause trouble in the martial arts conference. Although your skills have improved a lot in the past year, you have not yet been considered a top expert in the Jianghu. A gentleman takes revenge. , ten years is not too late, remember not to be impulsive."
"Yes." Sapphire agreed with her head bowed, but her fists were clenched tightly.
Su Yiran was frying his chicken in the backyard. He ate chicken every day at noon these days, and he was about to throw up.When Lan Yu was away, he felt even more bored, and felt uncomfortable no matter how long he stayed there.
Sapphire is hot and cold, it's really hard to fathom.Even though she still showed such a cold face to him that night, she has been more gentle to him these two days.Thinking of this, Su Yiran suddenly remembered what happened that night again.
This undoubtedly reminded Su Yiran of another thing - his purpose of coming to Suzhou.
For a while, eating, drinking, having fun and fighting corrupt officials with Lan Yu, he almost really thought of himself as a future man and later raised him, and even forgot why he came to Suzhou and worked so hard to enter the Lan Mansion.
Su Yiran thought about it, and found that today is an excellent time.Lan Yu returned to the mountain gate, and he would definitely not be able to come back for a while, and he would inevitably take away part of the hidden guards, so the guards in the Lan Mansion would become weak.
But Sapphire has been very kind to him these days, isn't it too unethical to steal from others?But if he didn't steal it, how would he explain to Yan Tianling when he came?At that time, I will definitely think that I went to the post-election meeting because of my vanity.
Besides, it doesn't have to be stolen!If there is time, he will copy a copy. If the map is simple, he will keep it in his mind.On the contrary, if he didn't steal it, Lan Yu would think about revenge every day, and maybe one day he would seek his own death.In the worst case, return it to him if he is discovered. Everyone is a good buddy and won't care about such trivial matters, not to mention that he won't show the map to others.
After making up his mind, Su Yiran was lucky enough to fly all the way to Lan Mansion, and slipped into Lan Yu's study.The guards in the study are still very strict, but Su Yiran has a good foundation, and his lightness kung fu is considered excellent, so he pushed open the window while the guards were sneezing and went in.
There was no one in the study room, Su Yiran felt that there was nothing wrong with being discovered, so he boldly flipped through it.After looking through the desk and drawers, he even knocked on the wall, but he didn't find anything like a map.
Lan Yu really knows how to hide, a map is hidden so secretly!Su Yiran had no choice but to look through the bookshelves there.Looking at the bookshelves full of books, Su Yiran only felt that the road was long and my life was over.Flipping through the pages, Su Yiran touched something, and something suddenly fell from the bookshelf.
This is not a joke, Su Yiran rushed over in fright, and finally caught the thing before it hit the ground.Su Yiran slowed down for a while and didn't even dare to vent his breath. He felt that the guards outside didn't seem to notice the sound inside, so he straightened up to take a look, and found that what he held was a scroll.
The more Su Yiran looked at it, the more he felt that this scroll was familiar. When he opened it, he was stunned for a moment. Damn it, Sapphire, you didn't bring this painting to Master Liu!Fortunately, I also thank you for such a long time!That painting was exactly the portrait Lan Yu painted for Su Yiran back then.
Su Yiran finished the scroll and put it back in the distance. After searching for a long time, he couldn't even find a hair, and he lost interest.Sitting on the ground and thinking for a long time, I made up my mind.
He wandered around in a sunny place on purpose, but no one found him after wandering around for a long time, which made him want to rush to the ears of the guards and shout, "A thief is in!!".Su Yiran didn't know that the guards outside thought that Lan Yu was in the house, so they didn't find it strange to see figures or noises.
Butler Xue happened to pass by the study, and when he saw the sneaky figure in the study, he immediately understood. He knew that Lan Yu was in the study today as a cover, and there should be no one in the study.So he immediately shouted, "Come on! There's a thief!"
When Su Yiran in the room heard Steward Xue's voice, he was so moved that he burst into tears, and almost went out to shake hands with him, calling him "class is a good comrade in arms".Su Yiran opened the window, and jumped out with a full body. With enough lightness skills, everyone only felt the figure flicker, without even looking at a piece of clothes, the person disappeared.
When Lan Yu came back that night, Su Yiran had already pretended to be asleep, and Lan Yu saw that the candles in the room had gone out, so she didn't go in to bother her.Su Yiran heard footsteps, put on her clothes, jumped out the door, and followed Lan Yu from a distance.
Housekeeper Xue probably went to Lanyu's side to talk about the situation during the day, and then saw Lanyu frowning and hurriedly walked to the study in the main house.Su Yiran called himself too smart, so he used lightness kung fu to get to the study roof and remove a tile before Lan Yu.
Not long after, Sapphire came in in a hurry. He stepped back and picked a book from the shelf. Hearing a few squeaks, the desk moved a meter or two, revealing a book on the floor. Sapphire jumped into the one-meter-square hole, and the desk creaked back to its original position.
Su Yiran's eyes were dumbfounded. So there is such a mechanism. He thought that there was a hidden door in the wall, but he didn't expect that there was a hole in the ground!Secretly remembering the location of the book, Su Yiran ran back to her room to sleep, since she knew where the things were, she was not in a hurry.
Not long after Su Yiran left, Lan Yu came up from the tunnel with a sullen face, and after a while, Butler Xue came in and asked, "Master, did you miss something?"
Lan Yu shook her head, and Steward Xue said, "Who is so coincidental that it just happens to be at a time when the young master is not in the mansion and the secret guards are sparse."
Lan Yu didn't speak, and said after a long time, "He missed a hit, and he will come again. Anyway, there are only a few people who know that I am not at the house today."
Butler Xue said with a serious face, "Young Master, do you suspect it's a secret guard?"
Lan Yu didn't speak, he couldn't tell for sure, but as long as the old trick was repeated, the truth would naturally surface.
The author has something to say:
☆, exposed
The next day, Lan Yu came to the shop with Su Yiran as if nothing happened. Su Yiran was a little puzzled, wanted to ask but was afraid of exposing herself, so she kept silent.
Lan Yu intentionally drew the streets and alleys of Suzhou on the wall, and began to work on the paper. Su Yiran looked at the densely packed streets and alleys, feeling quite like a picture of the Riverside during the Qingming Festival.
That day, Sapphire was standing on the table drawing a picture, but suddenly there was a scream in the backyard. Sapphire and a few little ghosts looked at each other, and then ran to the backyard together.
I saw Su Yiran excitedly circling the well with a chicken leg in his hand.
"Brother Lan, godfather seems to be possessed by a ghost." Xiao BuDian looked at Su Yiran and said.
"If you must call Su Yiran godfather, I don't mind if you call me Uncle Lan."
Xiao Budian didn't understand what Lan Yu meant, and looked up at Lan Yu with a puzzled expression.At this moment, Su Yiran saw Lan Yu shouting excitedly, "My fried chicken drumsticks are a success!" After speaking three steps at a time, Su Yiran ran over and took a bite out of the one in his hand like a treasure. Handed the chicken leg to Sapphire.
Sapphire raised the corners of her mouth, smiled meaningfully, and then lowered her head and took a bite of the chicken leg without hesitation. It was really delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
"How is it?" Su Yiran looked at Lan Yu expectantly.
"Not bad." Sapphire couldn't help laughing when she saw this.
"Godfather, I want to eat too."
"Godfather, I want to eat too."
A few little ghosts screamed and were about to jump on Su Yiran, Su Yiran responded quickly, and took out the remaining chicken wings and legs from the pot to share among the little ones.The little brats were full of praise after eating, and they praised Su Yiran so much that they were ecstatic, so Su Yiran fried them again.
The children took the chicken legs to the side to eat, Su Yiran saw Lan Yu sitting by the well and laughed, "Hey, Second Young Master Lan, my fried chicken is finished, when will your mural look good? This is a treasure land of geomantic omen, I can't wait to open the shop!"
Lan Yu chuckled, and touched the top of Su Yiran's head casually, "I'm just afraid of destroying your house! If you want to open the business earlier, I'll start painting for you tomorrow."
"Hey, I didn't urge you, you keep the quality and quantity for me, is it the so-called slow work and meticulous work! It doesn't matter if you slow down, I want the effect." Su Yiran laughed at Lan Yu with a playful smile.
"Okay, let me think about it again, and I promise to paint you the most beautiful mural in Suzhou."
"I want the most beautiful one in the country." Su Yiran pouted.
Lan Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she ran her hand through his hair and said, "You are probably the only mural in the whole country."
"Isn't the Second Young Master Lan very uncompetitive?" Su Yiran smiled with crooked eyebrows, and her beautiful phoenix eyes shone like stars, "Maybe when my shop opens, I can open up a business for the Manyue Kingdom. At this time, you are the ancestor of mural painters!"
Lan Yu clasped her fists and said, "Thank you, Mr. Su, for your reminder. I will be homeless in the future and still have a skill."
Su Yiran was also amused by him, sitting by the well and giggling non-stop.Suddenly seeing Lan Yu's hand clasped into a fist, he thought for a while, his expression changed, and he immediately grabbed the wrist of his right hand and said, "Is it this hand?"
Before Lanyu's answer, Su Yiran eagerly opened his sleeves, exposing the shocking purple-red skin in front of his eyes, the wound hadn't callused yet, but the middle seemed to be split, and blood flowed out with a little force.
Su Yiran frowned, then slapped Lan Yu on the head and said, "You hurt your right hand, why are you still painting?!" Lan Yu went to Tianchi Mountain yesterday, and didn't come all day. Today, she entered the shop and started to paint Painting, making Su Yiran forget about the injury on his hand.
"It's a small injury, it's not a problem." Lan Yu smiled gently, and slowly withdrew her arm from Su Yiran's hand, and put down her sleeve.
"I want to see it!" Su Yiran said angrily when he saw him withdrawing his hand.
"What's so interesting." Sapphire put her hands behind her back indiscriminately.
"You said I'm not in a hurry to open a shop, why are you working so hard? You can heal your injury and then paint, or if you can't, you can paint again when you have time after I open the shop!" Su Yiran frowned and complained to Lan Yu doesn't know how to take care of herself, her body is his own, and how he wants to spoil it is his own business, but the injury is because of him, didn't Lanyu make him feel ashamed by making such a torment!
Lan Yu didn't want to talk about this anymore, although it was very helpful to see Su Yiran's expression of concern for him. "By the way, what are you going to do after this store opens?"
"Huh? What should I do?" Su Yiran was taken aback.
"You still have class, you don't think that I will allow you to fry chicken here every day, do you?" Lan Yuyu said earnestly.
Su Yiran stuck out his tongue secretly, to be honest, that's what he thought.The motivation for supporting his fried chicken all the time is that if he knows fried chicken, he will have a reason not to go to class.
"But, you can't let a few children learn fried chicken? Although I don't mind teaching them, but they are so young, I worry about facing the frying pan every day. You see, you are so grown up, you are made like this, little The things are delicate and tender, and I feel so sorry for being splashed." After Su Yiran finished speaking, he found that Lan Yu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he couldn't be found even after throwing him in the coal pile.
"I'm not saying that you have rough skin and thick flesh. I'm saying that you will be splashed at your age, and children are more likely to be injured."
Sapphire's face darkened even more, "Hey, hey, for whom did I make such a miserable appearance?"
Su Yiran curled her lips and didn't speak, and said after a while, "How about I hire a buddy, who can take care of the little things for me even when I'm not around."
Lan Yu nodded and felt that what Su Yiran said made sense, "Then go and write a notice."
The two wrote a piece of red paper, pasted it at the door of the store, and sent a few children to take a nap in their arms.Su Yiran's chicken was also fried, and the two sat in the hall and chatted.
Su Yiran looked at the injury on Lanyu's hand, feeling very sorry.Asked, "If I want to deliver a letter to my family, how should I get it?"
Lan Yu raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, "I'll just send someone to the capital."
"Will it be troublesome?" Su Yiran was a little moved. In fact, if it was possible, he didn't want to contact Najinge. Although he missed his brother very much, when he thought of meeting = scolded bloody head + cynicism, Su Yiran would Made a turtle.But the injury on Lanyu's hand was really serious, and it would be a fool to believe him that there would be no scars. Su Yiran thought that Su Yixuan's medical skills were very good, so she planned to send a letter to ask for a prescription or something.
"No, otherwise what would you hire them for?" Sapphire said generously.
"Then I will write a letter to my family tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, can you send it there for me?"
"Of course there is no problem. I think you have been in Suzhou for more than a month."
"It's been more than a month..." Su Yiran couldn't help but feel a little melancholy. That boy Yan Tianling left him behind and didn't come to him for a month. Although he could understand how he felt about losing his loving mother, he should also be a responsible person. man!What's the matter with throwing him alone in Suzhou and ignoring him!
The two were silent for a long time, but each had their own ghosts in their hearts. After a while, Lan Yu seemed to make up her mind and said, "I have to go back to the master's gate tonight."
"Huh? Why? Didn't you just go back yesterday?" Su Yiran asked.
"Yesterday I was called back to investigate some things. Today I have some clues and I plan to go back to the mountain overnight to report."
"You are really responsible." Su Yiran did not doubt him, rolled her small eyes, and made up her mind.Last time he already knew where Sapphire hid things, and he never expected Sapphire to go out so soon.But there is no doubt that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
In the evening, Su Yiran went to bed early, Lan Yu didn't set off with her guards until dark, and rode away from the main gate swaggeringly.Su Yiran heard that the courtyard had become quiet, so she immediately got up, changed clothes, jumped out, and jumped into the study.
Flipping through a few books based on memory, I finally found the one that Lan Yu turned to last time. Su Yiran picked it up lightly, and then heard the creaking sound, which was very ear-piercing in the dark night.Su Yiran was afraid that the guards outside would hear it, so he jumped down when the tunnel was only half opened. When he heard the door was closed, he took out the torch, searched at the door, and found a stone similar to a switch. Go forward.
It was a very long tunnel, and Su Yiran walked down the stone steps, getting darker and more frightened, feeling the stone wall and slowly moving forward, feeling like entering a haunted house.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Su Yiran's nervous legs became numb, and when he looked down, he found that the stone steps were gone.He held up the fire folder and looked around, and it seemed to be a very spacious place. He took a few steps forward and found a table.There is a candlestick up the table.
Su Yiran has found a savior!He hurriedly took the candlestick and lit it, and the whole cave lit up accordingly.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Su Yiran couldn't help being a little surprised.This is a simple room with a double bed and two futons on top.There is a table in front of the bed, and a bookcase next to it, with some scattered books on it.Next to it, there are kettles, wooden basins, clotheslines, and all daily necessities.
Su Yiran was stunned for a while, and soon four words came to mind - "Jinwu Zangjiao"!Although this room is not considered a golden house, this standard is simply prepared for "Zang Jiao"!
"That big pervert, Lan Yu, is really a big radish, and even dug a tunnel specially for his lover. Could it be for that guy Chu Yibing?" Su Yiran said to himself, surrounded by this small After turning around the small room twice, I remembered the purpose of my trip.
He flipped through the drawer, and found that the dozens of papers inside were filled with poems and songs, and there was no trace of a map.He looked through the bookshelf again, took down every book on it and looked through it, and found that there were also some poems, which made him feel very boring.
Obviously found all the tunnels, but didn't find the map is too weird, Su Yiran turned over the bed and barrel again, but still found nothing.
He slumped on the bed and punched the pillow as if venting his anger, "How can a map be hidden so secretly!"
I glanced inadvertently and found a piece of paper on the table.Su Yiran picked it up and saw it was another poem. He wanted to throw it back directly, but maybe he was too tired to move, so he read it by accident.
Lightly lift the curtain in the dream when I wake up, I still remember the cotton on the pillow at night.
The past is full of ears, and the floating clouds often never return.
Passionate like a king laughing Yan Yan, infatuated like my tears again and again.
Like water flowing in the sky to make a wish, this hatred will never change.
The font is elegant and beautiful, with softness and rigidity, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a font that can only be written by women.Su Yiran read it again, and found that it was obviously a poem for a lover who betrayed him, and this lover was most likely Lan Yu.
There are mixed feelings in his heart, Su Yiran always knew that he didn't understand Lan Yu, but he thought that Lan Yu had opened up his heart to him in the past few days, revealing his original side.But seeing this poem, Su Yiran suddenly realized that he was still out of his mind.
The sapphire in his eyes just likes to tease people, put on a charming look all day long, and go to the street to discharge one by one.But he felt that Sapphire was also a very gentle and considerate person, his flirtatiousness was only on the surface, if he was really serious, he should be a very dedicated and responsible man.
"Damn, why do I think these things? His Sapphire's love debt has something to do with me!" Su Yiran stood up and shook his head. Since he didn't find the map, he didn't plan to look for it again.Let everything go according to fate, at worst, wait until Lan Yu wants to go to the Chaos Flower Palace to take revenge one day, and let him take herself along with her.
Thinking of this, Su Yiran turned around and planned to leave. After walking a few steps, he came back again, looked at the piece of paper with love poems written on it for a while, and finally stretched out his hand to fold the piece of paper and put it in his pocket, blew out the candle, and lit it. Zhezi caught fire and walked back the same way.
The secret door creaked open and closed again, and a burst of laughter suddenly resounded in the authentic room.The bookshelf squeaked open, and there happened to be a hollow inside that could hide a person.
The candle was lit again, and the silver blade glowed with permeable light. Sapphire raised her hand to support her temple and laughed, her sleeves slid down, revealing a large purple-red burn.
"Lan Yu, can I help you get revenge?"
"Two big men, what's the point of a kiss?!"
"I, Su Yiran, swear that I will never do anything wrong to Lan Yu in my life."
"Lanyu, are you still a man? What does it have to do with me if someone enters your house? Have I, Su Yiran, ever done something wrong to you? Why do you doubt me? Have your conscience been eaten by dogs?!"
The saber fell to the ground with a snap, and Sapphire smiled with tears in her eyes.
The author has something to say:
☆, heavy fog
Lan Yu knelt in the mourning hall until dawn, without a drop of water, and never said a word.The hair tie was untied by him, and the long black and smooth hair hung down his shoulders and fell to the ground.
Steward Xue stood outside the door and watched Lan Yu's back, but never dared to go in.He didn't know what happened last night. According to the plan, Lan Yu repeated his old tricks and directed a scene of inviting you into the urn, and hid himself in the secret passage, intending to reveal the true face of this man.But Steward Xue waited outside for a long time, and finally only his master climbed up in a daze.
Lan Yu didn't say anything, so he didn't ask anything, and followed Lan Yu and stood outside the mourning hall all night.Sapphire knelt there with her long hair loose, but her back was straight.
It wasn't until the sky turned pale that Lan Yu suddenly said, "Father, brother, Yu'er misjudged the person."
The voice of Jue Jue echoed in the mourning hall, and he stood up slowly, his legs shaking after kneeling all night, Steward Xue hurried in to help him, Lan Yu waved his hand, and stood firm.
Tie up her hair with a headband, Lan Yu flicked her sleeves and went back to her yard, picked up the flower carving on the stone table, and went to Xifeng's grave behind the house.It was Lan Yuli's tomb after Xifeng's death. He raised his head and drank half of it, then poured the other half into the soil.
"Xifeng, as expected, I shouldn't trust anyone but you." The voice was low and deep, like dream language.The wine has entered the spring mud, and then raised his head with a look of determination.
Su Yiran went to the study to look for Lan Yu after class, but was in vain.I went to Lan Yu's yard to look for him, and saw Steward Xue guarding the door from a distance.
"Butler Xue, where's Lan Yu?"
"The young master is sick, resting inside, and left a message saying that he will not accompany Mr. Su to the store today." Steward Xue replied respectfully.
"Sick? How can someone who is fine be sick? I'll go in and see him." Su Yiran walked in after speaking, but was stopped by Butler Xue without a trace.
"Master Su, the young master just got a cold, and he'll be fine after a day's rest. Master, go get busy, isn't your shop about to open?"
"It doesn't matter when the store opens. Sapphire's body is important. The injury on his hand hasn't healed yet. Why did he catch the cold again? Let me go in and take care of him?" Su Yiran felt that Butler Xue didn't want him to go in, so he turned to He blinked.
"My lord, don't make things difficult for your servants. The young master said he doesn't want to see anyone." Steward Xue was unmoved.
"I'm not human."
"........."
"Okay..." Seeing that Steward Xue was unwilling to let him in no matter what, Su Yiran had to compromise, "Then I will trouble Steward Xue to take care of him."
"Thank you Mr. Su for your trouble." Steward Xue bowed, and Su Yiran looked inside a few more times before turning and leaving reluctantly.
Sapphire was lying on the bed, he could hear the conversation between the two outside clearly, looked at the wall with his eyes and smiled coldly.Want to come in and see if I'm really sick?Su Yiran, I really underestimated you, I didn't expect you to be such a scheming person.
Su Yiran felt even more depressed when he left the Lan Mansion. He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep after reading the poem last night, but Lan Yu didn't see him again today, leaving him with nowhere to vent his inexplicable emotions.
I went to the shop to bring some food for a few children, and the little one asked him, "Godfather, where's Uncle Lan?"
"Uncle is sick, he will come over in a few days." Su Yiran patted his head, then leaned against the table, looking at the mural painted by Lan Yu.
Starting from the painting of the city gate of Suzhou, several famous streets and buildings have been painted, and all the way to the snack street, the crowds of people on the street are vivid.Su Yiran was distracted after watching, and didn't even hear someone knocking on the door.
It wasn't until he felt himself being pushed that he followed Duoduo's eyes suspiciously, and saw a strong man standing at the door of the shop.
"Do you need manpower? I used to be a cook, and I helped the Emerald Building for two days." The man spoke with a northern air.
It was only then that Su Yiran remembered that he posted a recruitment notice yesterday.He originally wanted to ask Sapphire to check for him, but Sapphire happened to be away today.In fact, Su Yiran doesn't have any special requirements for recruiting people. To be honest, as long as the children like it.
Su Yiran asked the little things for their opinions, and saw that the little ghosts looked at the man timidly and did not dare to speak.Su Yiran thought so too, the man looks so tough, and the little things are more shy of strangers, so he probably wouldn't like it, so he sent him back.
Later, a few more came to the store, but basically they were people with families and rough looks.As a cook, if you turn over such a heavy pot every day, you will definitely have muscles all over your body.But a few children didn't seem to like it very much, so they asked for their addresses and asked them to go home and wait for news.Su Yiran still hopes to recruit a homeless person who is dedicated to work.There are two more rooms upstairs, just enough to provide accommodation, otherwise Su Yiran will not feel at ease if a few small things live here.
There are no good candidates, and he really doesn't want to work.Su Yiran thought about it for a while and decided to go to Wanhualou to see the red makeup and redeem her body by the way.The bustard obviously knew Su Yiran already, and took him directly to Hongzhuang's room.
Hong Zhuang still looked like that, she was quite surprised to see Su Yiran coming and pulled him to sit down, but Su Yiran was a little suspicious, Hong Zhuang's status was not high, but it seemed that she never had to receive guests.
"Hongzhuang, how have you been recently?"
"Everything is fine with Hong Zhuang, but I heard that the White Horse Bookstore next to Xiao Wangchen is going to open a restaurant?" Hong Zhuang poured him a cup of tea.
"That's right, on the day of the opening, please ask the girl to show her face." Su Yiran said with a smile.
"My lord, what are you talking about? My lord doesn't mind and is willing to invite Hong Zhuang to go. It's too late for Hong Zhuang to be happy."
Seeing that her complexion was much better than the previous few days, Su Yiran felt relieved.At this time, a servant girl knocked on the door and came in, "Sister Hongzhuang, it's time to drink the medicine."
"Just tell me about this kind of thing and I'll go down and get it myself, why bother my sister to deliver it in person." Hong Zhuang hurriedly ran to the door to take the bowl from the man.
"Sister, don't say that. I'm just a servant girl. This kind of thing should be done. Sister, you are busy. Sister, I'm going down." The maid nodded to Hong Zhuang, closed the door and walked out.
Hong Zhuang held the bowl of medicine but didn't turn around for a long time, Su Yiran called out in wonder, "Hong Zhuang?"
Hong Zhuang seemed to come back to her senses, turned around and said hastily, "Ah, ah?"
"you are sick?"
Seeing the worry in Su Yiran's eyes, Hong Zhuang bowed her head a little guilty and said, "What's wrong, it's just some medicine that prostitutes drink regularly."
When Su Yiran realized it, she felt that she was asking too many questions, for fear of hurting others' self-esteem.Hong Zhuang looked a little nervous, raised her head to glance at Su Yiran secretly, then lowered her head, and walked over absent-mindedly after a long time.
The medicine was a bit full, and Hong Zhuang lowered her head and took small steps slowly, but when she was about to get to Su Yiran's side, she accidentally stepped on her skirt, and she jumped forward.Su Yiran catches her with sharp eyes and hands, but the medicine in his hand spilled all over Su Yiran.
Su Yiran went out wearing off-white clothes today, and it was very ugly to be sprinkled with soup.Hong Zhuang let out a cry of surprise and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe his clothes, but the medicinal juice had already seeped into it, and she couldn't clean it no matter how much she wiped.
Hong Zhuang turned around in a hurry, and finally said, "My lord, Hong Zhuang can help you take a bath and change clothes. You can't go out with your appearance."
Su Yiran treats Hongzhuang as her younger sister, how can she let a girl serve her in the bath, "It's okay, no need, just help me get some clean clothes."
Hong Zhuang became anxious when she heard this, and knelt down with a thud, "Isn't your son angry with Hong Zhuang? Hong Zhuang is clumsy, but it really wasn't intentional!"
Su Yiran was taken aback by her, what a big deal, why did she kneel down.He was already irritable, but now he lost his patience and said, "All right, everything is up to you, right? Get up quickly!"
With Su Yiran's support, Hong Zhuang stood up and ordered the servant girl to boil water.After a while, Su Yiran soaked in the steaming wooden barrel.
"My lord, Hong Zhuang can rub your back for you." Hong Zhuang came over and asked tentatively.
Su Yiran was a little embarrassed, but she was afraid that she would make some trouble again, so she nodded, jumped forward and climbed to the edge of the wooden barrel, only her jade back as smooth as suet was exposed.
Hong Zhuang carefully gave him the setback, the technique was excellent, and Su Yiran pressed it comfortably.As soon as his body relaxed, his head started to think wildly again. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly asked, "Hongzhuang, how many years have you stayed in Suzhou?"
"Hong Zhuang is from Suzhou, and grew up here since she was a child."
"Oh?" Su Yiran became interested, thinking that she must know about Lanyu when he asked her, so he asked vaguely, "Has Lanyu ever had someone he liked very much before, um... a woman with a good relationship?"
The hand on the back paused, and it took a long time to hear Hong Zhuang whispering, "Second young master is naturally romantic, and has had many women, but I don't think there was any good relationship."
It really is a philandering radish!Su Yiran thought indignantly, he was so beautiful but not so many girls were chasing after him, how could there be so many Yingying Yanyan around Lan Yu who looked like a fairy.
Seeing that Su Yiran was lost in thought, Hong Zhuang hesitated for a moment, then carefully brushed away his hair, his right shoulder was empty, but there were five beautiful ice crystal petals on his left shoulder.The flower was obviously missing a petal, as if it had been torn off abruptly, and couldn't close.
Su Yiran felt that the red makeup hadn't moved for a long time, so she asked
Lan Yu shook her head helplessly, at such an age she still looks like a child, jumping up and down every day, grinning when she opens her mouth, and impatient, she might be taken advantage of by those who want to go out of the mountain gate.
Xiao Zheng's main house is not on the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain is a place for people to retreat and practice.Lan Yu arrived there not too far away, and Xiao Zheng only sat on the position of the leader of the martial arts in his 50s.
"Master, the disciple is back." Sapphire bowed with her sword in her arms.
"Yu'er, you are back. How is it going down the mountain?" Xiao Zheng's voice was slow and deep.
"All is well."
"I heard that you asked Liu Jie to send Li Mingzhi back to Beijing?"
"Ah."
"Hmm... well done." Xiao Zheng drank a cup of tea slowly, "If that child Xifeng is still alive, he must have become one of the best masters in the Jianghu by now. Li Mingzhi really did something wrong!"
Lan Yu didn't speak, Xiao Zheng said again after a while, "What's wrong with the young people nowadays? They are all trapped by love, and they don't even want a bright future. Look at your big brother, you actually threw down my weapon for a demon cultist." Old bone, left the mountain gate."
Lan Yu thought to herself that Mu Yi really had to talk. When his senior brother got married with Xinyun, nothing happened to the Lan family, and Lan Yu was quite supportive of his senior brother's affairs.Because at that time, even though the Chaotic Flower Palace was called the Devil's Cult, Lan Yu didn't see them doing any serious and unreasonable things.He has a very good relationship with his elder brother, and he has met Xinyun twice, and feels that although that person is a bit arrogant by nature, it is rare for him to be sincere to his elder brother, so he feels that the contradiction between good and evil is just a cloud.
But now that the Lan family has been exterminated, even though they know that this happened after Xinyun severed ties with Luanhua Palace, they still can't get over this hurdle in their hearts.Those kind words that he could easily say for his elder brother in the past are now stuck in his throat and he can't say a word.
Xiao Zheng continued, "Recently, there are people chasing and killing your elder brother in the Jianghu, some idiots! How dare you run after Zhongtian so blatantly in the past? It's really a tiger in Pingyang being bullied by dogs. Zhongtian had a lot of prestige in the Jianghu back then, but now He actually ended up in a situation where the whole martial arts world was thrown into trouble."
"Eldest brother is highly skilled in martial arts, master don't have to worry."
"Can I not know Zhongtian's kung fu? I just feel sorry for him. I brought up that child with my own hands, and I will live a good life, but I have to live that kind of life like a street mouse." Xiao Zheng calmed down. Said, "Do you know why they chased and killed your brother?"
Lan Yu didn't understand Xiao Zheng's intentions. Almost everyone knew the reason why the people in the Jianghu chased and killed the senior brother. Why did the master make such a move, so she answered truthfully, "Xinyun used to be from the Luanhua Palace, and the senior brother was killed by him." It is not surprising that people suspect that they have a map of the Luanhua Palace."
"Yu'er." Xiao Zheng sighed.
"The disciple is here."
"Tell the master honestly, is the map of Chaos Flower Palace in your place?"
Sapphire's eyes remained calm, and she replied, "I'm not here."
Xiao Zheng stared at Lan Yu for a long time, before sighing, "Forget it, I, an old man, can't take care of young people's affairs. In two months, there will be the five-year martial arts leader's conference. What are your plans?"
"The disciple is not talented, but he is willing to fight for the master."
"Except for Zhongtian, you have always been my most proud disciple. I am afraid that no one in this No. [-] Jianzhuang can match your martial arts. It's just that you are still a few years away from the position of the leader of the martial arts. I don't think you will be able to do so this time." I hope." Xiao Zheng sighed again, "Oh, if your senior brother hadn't had this incident, the position of the leader of this martial arts conference should be in his pocket."
"As a teacher, I don't care too much about this person. The position of the leader changes all the year round. I am afraid that you will cause trouble in the martial arts conference. Although your skills have improved a lot in the past year, you have not yet been considered a top expert in the Jianghu. A gentleman takes revenge. , ten years is not too late, remember not to be impulsive."
"Yes." Sapphire agreed with her head bowed, but her fists were clenched tightly.
Su Yiran was frying his chicken in the backyard. He ate chicken every day at noon these days, and he was about to throw up.When Lan Yu was away, he felt even more bored, and felt uncomfortable no matter how long he stayed there.
Sapphire is hot and cold, it's really hard to fathom.Even though she still showed such a cold face to him that night, she has been more gentle to him these two days.Thinking of this, Su Yiran suddenly remembered what happened that night again.
This undoubtedly reminded Su Yiran of another thing - his purpose of coming to Suzhou.
For a while, eating, drinking, having fun and fighting corrupt officials with Lan Yu, he almost really thought of himself as a future man and later raised him, and even forgot why he came to Suzhou and worked so hard to enter the Lan Mansion.
Su Yiran thought about it, and found that today is an excellent time.Lan Yu returned to the mountain gate, and he would definitely not be able to come back for a while, and he would inevitably take away part of the hidden guards, so the guards in the Lan Mansion would become weak.
But Sapphire has been very kind to him these days, isn't it too unethical to steal from others?But if he didn't steal it, how would he explain to Yan Tianling when he came?At that time, I will definitely think that I went to the post-election meeting because of my vanity.
Besides, it doesn't have to be stolen!If there is time, he will copy a copy. If the map is simple, he will keep it in his mind.On the contrary, if he didn't steal it, Lan Yu would think about revenge every day, and maybe one day he would seek his own death.In the worst case, return it to him if he is discovered. Everyone is a good buddy and won't care about such trivial matters, not to mention that he won't show the map to others.
After making up his mind, Su Yiran was lucky enough to fly all the way to Lan Mansion, and slipped into Lan Yu's study.The guards in the study are still very strict, but Su Yiran has a good foundation, and his lightness kung fu is considered excellent, so he pushed open the window while the guards were sneezing and went in.
There was no one in the study room, Su Yiran felt that there was nothing wrong with being discovered, so he boldly flipped through it.After looking through the desk and drawers, he even knocked on the wall, but he didn't find anything like a map.
Lan Yu really knows how to hide, a map is hidden so secretly!Su Yiran had no choice but to look through the bookshelves there.Looking at the bookshelves full of books, Su Yiran only felt that the road was long and my life was over.Flipping through the pages, Su Yiran touched something, and something suddenly fell from the bookshelf.
This is not a joke, Su Yiran rushed over in fright, and finally caught the thing before it hit the ground.Su Yiran slowed down for a while and didn't even dare to vent his breath. He felt that the guards outside didn't seem to notice the sound inside, so he straightened up to take a look, and found that what he held was a scroll.
The more Su Yiran looked at it, the more he felt that this scroll was familiar. When he opened it, he was stunned for a moment. Damn it, Sapphire, you didn't bring this painting to Master Liu!Fortunately, I also thank you for such a long time!That painting was exactly the portrait Lan Yu painted for Su Yiran back then.
Su Yiran finished the scroll and put it back in the distance. After searching for a long time, he couldn't even find a hair, and he lost interest.Sitting on the ground and thinking for a long time, I made up my mind.
He wandered around in a sunny place on purpose, but no one found him after wandering around for a long time, which made him want to rush to the ears of the guards and shout, "A thief is in!!".Su Yiran didn't know that the guards outside thought that Lan Yu was in the house, so they didn't find it strange to see figures or noises.
Butler Xue happened to pass by the study, and when he saw the sneaky figure in the study, he immediately understood. He knew that Lan Yu was in the study today as a cover, and there should be no one in the study.So he immediately shouted, "Come on! There's a thief!"
When Su Yiran in the room heard Steward Xue's voice, he was so moved that he burst into tears, and almost went out to shake hands with him, calling him "class is a good comrade in arms".Su Yiran opened the window, and jumped out with a full body. With enough lightness skills, everyone only felt the figure flicker, without even looking at a piece of clothes, the person disappeared.
When Lan Yu came back that night, Su Yiran had already pretended to be asleep, and Lan Yu saw that the candles in the room had gone out, so she didn't go in to bother her.Su Yiran heard footsteps, put on her clothes, jumped out the door, and followed Lan Yu from a distance.
Housekeeper Xue probably went to Lanyu's side to talk about the situation during the day, and then saw Lanyu frowning and hurriedly walked to the study in the main house.Su Yiran called himself too smart, so he used lightness kung fu to get to the study roof and remove a tile before Lan Yu.
Not long after, Sapphire came in in a hurry. He stepped back and picked a book from the shelf. Hearing a few squeaks, the desk moved a meter or two, revealing a book on the floor. Sapphire jumped into the one-meter-square hole, and the desk creaked back to its original position.
Su Yiran's eyes were dumbfounded. So there is such a mechanism. He thought that there was a hidden door in the wall, but he didn't expect that there was a hole in the ground!Secretly remembering the location of the book, Su Yiran ran back to her room to sleep, since she knew where the things were, she was not in a hurry.
Not long after Su Yiran left, Lan Yu came up from the tunnel with a sullen face, and after a while, Butler Xue came in and asked, "Master, did you miss something?"
Lan Yu shook her head, and Steward Xue said, "Who is so coincidental that it just happens to be at a time when the young master is not in the mansion and the secret guards are sparse."
Lan Yu didn't speak, and said after a long time, "He missed a hit, and he will come again. Anyway, there are only a few people who know that I am not at the house today."
Butler Xue said with a serious face, "Young Master, do you suspect it's a secret guard?"
Lan Yu didn't speak, he couldn't tell for sure, but as long as the old trick was repeated, the truth would naturally surface.
The author has something to say:
☆, exposed
The next day, Lan Yu came to the shop with Su Yiran as if nothing happened. Su Yiran was a little puzzled, wanted to ask but was afraid of exposing herself, so she kept silent.
Lan Yu intentionally drew the streets and alleys of Suzhou on the wall, and began to work on the paper. Su Yiran looked at the densely packed streets and alleys, feeling quite like a picture of the Riverside during the Qingming Festival.
That day, Sapphire was standing on the table drawing a picture, but suddenly there was a scream in the backyard. Sapphire and a few little ghosts looked at each other, and then ran to the backyard together.
I saw Su Yiran excitedly circling the well with a chicken leg in his hand.
"Brother Lan, godfather seems to be possessed by a ghost." Xiao BuDian looked at Su Yiran and said.
"If you must call Su Yiran godfather, I don't mind if you call me Uncle Lan."
Xiao Budian didn't understand what Lan Yu meant, and looked up at Lan Yu with a puzzled expression.At this moment, Su Yiran saw Lan Yu shouting excitedly, "My fried chicken drumsticks are a success!" After speaking three steps at a time, Su Yiran ran over and took a bite out of the one in his hand like a treasure. Handed the chicken leg to Sapphire.
Sapphire raised the corners of her mouth, smiled meaningfully, and then lowered her head and took a bite of the chicken leg without hesitation. It was really delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
"How is it?" Su Yiran looked at Lan Yu expectantly.
"Not bad." Sapphire couldn't help laughing when she saw this.
"Godfather, I want to eat too."
"Godfather, I want to eat too."
A few little ghosts screamed and were about to jump on Su Yiran, Su Yiran responded quickly, and took out the remaining chicken wings and legs from the pot to share among the little ones.The little brats were full of praise after eating, and they praised Su Yiran so much that they were ecstatic, so Su Yiran fried them again.
The children took the chicken legs to the side to eat, Su Yiran saw Lan Yu sitting by the well and laughed, "Hey, Second Young Master Lan, my fried chicken is finished, when will your mural look good? This is a treasure land of geomantic omen, I can't wait to open the shop!"
Lan Yu chuckled, and touched the top of Su Yiran's head casually, "I'm just afraid of destroying your house! If you want to open the business earlier, I'll start painting for you tomorrow."
"Hey, I didn't urge you, you keep the quality and quantity for me, is it the so-called slow work and meticulous work! It doesn't matter if you slow down, I want the effect." Su Yiran laughed at Lan Yu with a playful smile.
"Okay, let me think about it again, and I promise to paint you the most beautiful mural in Suzhou."
"I want the most beautiful one in the country." Su Yiran pouted.
Lan Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she ran her hand through his hair and said, "You are probably the only mural in the whole country."
"Isn't the Second Young Master Lan very uncompetitive?" Su Yiran smiled with crooked eyebrows, and her beautiful phoenix eyes shone like stars, "Maybe when my shop opens, I can open up a business for the Manyue Kingdom. At this time, you are the ancestor of mural painters!"
Lan Yu clasped her fists and said, "Thank you, Mr. Su, for your reminder. I will be homeless in the future and still have a skill."
Su Yiran was also amused by him, sitting by the well and giggling non-stop.Suddenly seeing Lan Yu's hand clasped into a fist, he thought for a while, his expression changed, and he immediately grabbed the wrist of his right hand and said, "Is it this hand?"
Before Lanyu's answer, Su Yiran eagerly opened his sleeves, exposing the shocking purple-red skin in front of his eyes, the wound hadn't callused yet, but the middle seemed to be split, and blood flowed out with a little force.
Su Yiran frowned, then slapped Lan Yu on the head and said, "You hurt your right hand, why are you still painting?!" Lan Yu went to Tianchi Mountain yesterday, and didn't come all day. Today, she entered the shop and started to paint Painting, making Su Yiran forget about the injury on his hand.
"It's a small injury, it's not a problem." Lan Yu smiled gently, and slowly withdrew her arm from Su Yiran's hand, and put down her sleeve.
"I want to see it!" Su Yiran said angrily when he saw him withdrawing his hand.
"What's so interesting." Sapphire put her hands behind her back indiscriminately.
"You said I'm not in a hurry to open a shop, why are you working so hard? You can heal your injury and then paint, or if you can't, you can paint again when you have time after I open the shop!" Su Yiran frowned and complained to Lan Yu doesn't know how to take care of herself, her body is his own, and how he wants to spoil it is his own business, but the injury is because of him, didn't Lanyu make him feel ashamed by making such a torment!
Lan Yu didn't want to talk about this anymore, although it was very helpful to see Su Yiran's expression of concern for him. "By the way, what are you going to do after this store opens?"
"Huh? What should I do?" Su Yiran was taken aback.
"You still have class, you don't think that I will allow you to fry chicken here every day, do you?" Lan Yuyu said earnestly.
Su Yiran stuck out his tongue secretly, to be honest, that's what he thought.The motivation for supporting his fried chicken all the time is that if he knows fried chicken, he will have a reason not to go to class.
"But, you can't let a few children learn fried chicken? Although I don't mind teaching them, but they are so young, I worry about facing the frying pan every day. You see, you are so grown up, you are made like this, little The things are delicate and tender, and I feel so sorry for being splashed." After Su Yiran finished speaking, he found that Lan Yu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he couldn't be found even after throwing him in the coal pile.
"I'm not saying that you have rough skin and thick flesh. I'm saying that you will be splashed at your age, and children are more likely to be injured."
Sapphire's face darkened even more, "Hey, hey, for whom did I make such a miserable appearance?"
Su Yiran curled her lips and didn't speak, and said after a while, "How about I hire a buddy, who can take care of the little things for me even when I'm not around."
Lan Yu nodded and felt that what Su Yiran said made sense, "Then go and write a notice."
The two wrote a piece of red paper, pasted it at the door of the store, and sent a few children to take a nap in their arms.Su Yiran's chicken was also fried, and the two sat in the hall and chatted.
Su Yiran looked at the injury on Lanyu's hand, feeling very sorry.Asked, "If I want to deliver a letter to my family, how should I get it?"
Lan Yu raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, "I'll just send someone to the capital."
"Will it be troublesome?" Su Yiran was a little moved. In fact, if it was possible, he didn't want to contact Najinge. Although he missed his brother very much, when he thought of meeting = scolded bloody head + cynicism, Su Yiran would Made a turtle.But the injury on Lanyu's hand was really serious, and it would be a fool to believe him that there would be no scars. Su Yiran thought that Su Yixuan's medical skills were very good, so she planned to send a letter to ask for a prescription or something.
"No, otherwise what would you hire them for?" Sapphire said generously.
"Then I will write a letter to my family tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, can you send it there for me?"
"Of course there is no problem. I think you have been in Suzhou for more than a month."
"It's been more than a month..." Su Yiran couldn't help but feel a little melancholy. That boy Yan Tianling left him behind and didn't come to him for a month. Although he could understand how he felt about losing his loving mother, he should also be a responsible person. man!What's the matter with throwing him alone in Suzhou and ignoring him!
The two were silent for a long time, but each had their own ghosts in their hearts. After a while, Lan Yu seemed to make up her mind and said, "I have to go back to the master's gate tonight."
"Huh? Why? Didn't you just go back yesterday?" Su Yiran asked.
"Yesterday I was called back to investigate some things. Today I have some clues and I plan to go back to the mountain overnight to report."
"You are really responsible." Su Yiran did not doubt him, rolled her small eyes, and made up her mind.Last time he already knew where Sapphire hid things, and he never expected Sapphire to go out so soon.But there is no doubt that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
In the evening, Su Yiran went to bed early, Lan Yu didn't set off with her guards until dark, and rode away from the main gate swaggeringly.Su Yiran heard that the courtyard had become quiet, so she immediately got up, changed clothes, jumped out, and jumped into the study.
Flipping through a few books based on memory, I finally found the one that Lan Yu turned to last time. Su Yiran picked it up lightly, and then heard the creaking sound, which was very ear-piercing in the dark night.Su Yiran was afraid that the guards outside would hear it, so he jumped down when the tunnel was only half opened. When he heard the door was closed, he took out the torch, searched at the door, and found a stone similar to a switch. Go forward.
It was a very long tunnel, and Su Yiran walked down the stone steps, getting darker and more frightened, feeling the stone wall and slowly moving forward, feeling like entering a haunted house.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Su Yiran's nervous legs became numb, and when he looked down, he found that the stone steps were gone.He held up the fire folder and looked around, and it seemed to be a very spacious place. He took a few steps forward and found a table.There is a candlestick up the table.
Su Yiran has found a savior!He hurriedly took the candlestick and lit it, and the whole cave lit up accordingly.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Su Yiran couldn't help being a little surprised.This is a simple room with a double bed and two futons on top.There is a table in front of the bed, and a bookcase next to it, with some scattered books on it.Next to it, there are kettles, wooden basins, clotheslines, and all daily necessities.
Su Yiran was stunned for a while, and soon four words came to mind - "Jinwu Zangjiao"!Although this room is not considered a golden house, this standard is simply prepared for "Zang Jiao"!
"That big pervert, Lan Yu, is really a big radish, and even dug a tunnel specially for his lover. Could it be for that guy Chu Yibing?" Su Yiran said to himself, surrounded by this small After turning around the small room twice, I remembered the purpose of my trip.
He flipped through the drawer, and found that the dozens of papers inside were filled with poems and songs, and there was no trace of a map.He looked through the bookshelf again, took down every book on it and looked through it, and found that there were also some poems, which made him feel very boring.
Obviously found all the tunnels, but didn't find the map is too weird, Su Yiran turned over the bed and barrel again, but still found nothing.
He slumped on the bed and punched the pillow as if venting his anger, "How can a map be hidden so secretly!"
I glanced inadvertently and found a piece of paper on the table.Su Yiran picked it up and saw it was another poem. He wanted to throw it back directly, but maybe he was too tired to move, so he read it by accident.
Lightly lift the curtain in the dream when I wake up, I still remember the cotton on the pillow at night.
The past is full of ears, and the floating clouds often never return.
Passionate like a king laughing Yan Yan, infatuated like my tears again and again.
Like water flowing in the sky to make a wish, this hatred will never change.
The font is elegant and beautiful, with softness and rigidity, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a font that can only be written by women.Su Yiran read it again, and found that it was obviously a poem for a lover who betrayed him, and this lover was most likely Lan Yu.
There are mixed feelings in his heart, Su Yiran always knew that he didn't understand Lan Yu, but he thought that Lan Yu had opened up his heart to him in the past few days, revealing his original side.But seeing this poem, Su Yiran suddenly realized that he was still out of his mind.
The sapphire in his eyes just likes to tease people, put on a charming look all day long, and go to the street to discharge one by one.But he felt that Sapphire was also a very gentle and considerate person, his flirtatiousness was only on the surface, if he was really serious, he should be a very dedicated and responsible man.
"Damn, why do I think these things? His Sapphire's love debt has something to do with me!" Su Yiran stood up and shook his head. Since he didn't find the map, he didn't plan to look for it again.Let everything go according to fate, at worst, wait until Lan Yu wants to go to the Chaos Flower Palace to take revenge one day, and let him take herself along with her.
Thinking of this, Su Yiran turned around and planned to leave. After walking a few steps, he came back again, looked at the piece of paper with love poems written on it for a while, and finally stretched out his hand to fold the piece of paper and put it in his pocket, blew out the candle, and lit it. Zhezi caught fire and walked back the same way.
The secret door creaked open and closed again, and a burst of laughter suddenly resounded in the authentic room.The bookshelf squeaked open, and there happened to be a hollow inside that could hide a person.
The candle was lit again, and the silver blade glowed with permeable light. Sapphire raised her hand to support her temple and laughed, her sleeves slid down, revealing a large purple-red burn.
"Lan Yu, can I help you get revenge?"
"Two big men, what's the point of a kiss?!"
"I, Su Yiran, swear that I will never do anything wrong to Lan Yu in my life."
"Lanyu, are you still a man? What does it have to do with me if someone enters your house? Have I, Su Yiran, ever done something wrong to you? Why do you doubt me? Have your conscience been eaten by dogs?!"
The saber fell to the ground with a snap, and Sapphire smiled with tears in her eyes.
The author has something to say:
☆, heavy fog
Lan Yu knelt in the mourning hall until dawn, without a drop of water, and never said a word.The hair tie was untied by him, and the long black and smooth hair hung down his shoulders and fell to the ground.
Steward Xue stood outside the door and watched Lan Yu's back, but never dared to go in.He didn't know what happened last night. According to the plan, Lan Yu repeated his old tricks and directed a scene of inviting you into the urn, and hid himself in the secret passage, intending to reveal the true face of this man.But Steward Xue waited outside for a long time, and finally only his master climbed up in a daze.
Lan Yu didn't say anything, so he didn't ask anything, and followed Lan Yu and stood outside the mourning hall all night.Sapphire knelt there with her long hair loose, but her back was straight.
It wasn't until the sky turned pale that Lan Yu suddenly said, "Father, brother, Yu'er misjudged the person."
The voice of Jue Jue echoed in the mourning hall, and he stood up slowly, his legs shaking after kneeling all night, Steward Xue hurried in to help him, Lan Yu waved his hand, and stood firm.
Tie up her hair with a headband, Lan Yu flicked her sleeves and went back to her yard, picked up the flower carving on the stone table, and went to Xifeng's grave behind the house.It was Lan Yuli's tomb after Xifeng's death. He raised his head and drank half of it, then poured the other half into the soil.
"Xifeng, as expected, I shouldn't trust anyone but you." The voice was low and deep, like dream language.The wine has entered the spring mud, and then raised his head with a look of determination.
Su Yiran went to the study to look for Lan Yu after class, but was in vain.I went to Lan Yu's yard to look for him, and saw Steward Xue guarding the door from a distance.
"Butler Xue, where's Lan Yu?"
"The young master is sick, resting inside, and left a message saying that he will not accompany Mr. Su to the store today." Steward Xue replied respectfully.
"Sick? How can someone who is fine be sick? I'll go in and see him." Su Yiran walked in after speaking, but was stopped by Butler Xue without a trace.
"Master Su, the young master just got a cold, and he'll be fine after a day's rest. Master, go get busy, isn't your shop about to open?"
"It doesn't matter when the store opens. Sapphire's body is important. The injury on his hand hasn't healed yet. Why did he catch the cold again? Let me go in and take care of him?" Su Yiran felt that Butler Xue didn't want him to go in, so he turned to He blinked.
"My lord, don't make things difficult for your servants. The young master said he doesn't want to see anyone." Steward Xue was unmoved.
"I'm not human."
"........."
"Okay..." Seeing that Steward Xue was unwilling to let him in no matter what, Su Yiran had to compromise, "Then I will trouble Steward Xue to take care of him."
"Thank you Mr. Su for your trouble." Steward Xue bowed, and Su Yiran looked inside a few more times before turning and leaving reluctantly.
Sapphire was lying on the bed, he could hear the conversation between the two outside clearly, looked at the wall with his eyes and smiled coldly.Want to come in and see if I'm really sick?Su Yiran, I really underestimated you, I didn't expect you to be such a scheming person.
Su Yiran felt even more depressed when he left the Lan Mansion. He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep after reading the poem last night, but Lan Yu didn't see him again today, leaving him with nowhere to vent his inexplicable emotions.
I went to the shop to bring some food for a few children, and the little one asked him, "Godfather, where's Uncle Lan?"
"Uncle is sick, he will come over in a few days." Su Yiran patted his head, then leaned against the table, looking at the mural painted by Lan Yu.
Starting from the painting of the city gate of Suzhou, several famous streets and buildings have been painted, and all the way to the snack street, the crowds of people on the street are vivid.Su Yiran was distracted after watching, and didn't even hear someone knocking on the door.
It wasn't until he felt himself being pushed that he followed Duoduo's eyes suspiciously, and saw a strong man standing at the door of the shop.
"Do you need manpower? I used to be a cook, and I helped the Emerald Building for two days." The man spoke with a northern air.
It was only then that Su Yiran remembered that he posted a recruitment notice yesterday.He originally wanted to ask Sapphire to check for him, but Sapphire happened to be away today.In fact, Su Yiran doesn't have any special requirements for recruiting people. To be honest, as long as the children like it.
Su Yiran asked the little things for their opinions, and saw that the little ghosts looked at the man timidly and did not dare to speak.Su Yiran thought so too, the man looks so tough, and the little things are more shy of strangers, so he probably wouldn't like it, so he sent him back.
Later, a few more came to the store, but basically they were people with families and rough looks.As a cook, if you turn over such a heavy pot every day, you will definitely have muscles all over your body.But a few children didn't seem to like it very much, so they asked for their addresses and asked them to go home and wait for news.Su Yiran still hopes to recruit a homeless person who is dedicated to work.There are two more rooms upstairs, just enough to provide accommodation, otherwise Su Yiran will not feel at ease if a few small things live here.
There are no good candidates, and he really doesn't want to work.Su Yiran thought about it for a while and decided to go to Wanhualou to see the red makeup and redeem her body by the way.The bustard obviously knew Su Yiran already, and took him directly to Hongzhuang's room.
Hong Zhuang still looked like that, she was quite surprised to see Su Yiran coming and pulled him to sit down, but Su Yiran was a little suspicious, Hong Zhuang's status was not high, but it seemed that she never had to receive guests.
"Hongzhuang, how have you been recently?"
"Everything is fine with Hong Zhuang, but I heard that the White Horse Bookstore next to Xiao Wangchen is going to open a restaurant?" Hong Zhuang poured him a cup of tea.
"That's right, on the day of the opening, please ask the girl to show her face." Su Yiran said with a smile.
"My lord, what are you talking about? My lord doesn't mind and is willing to invite Hong Zhuang to go. It's too late for Hong Zhuang to be happy."
Seeing that her complexion was much better than the previous few days, Su Yiran felt relieved.At this time, a servant girl knocked on the door and came in, "Sister Hongzhuang, it's time to drink the medicine."
"Just tell me about this kind of thing and I'll go down and get it myself, why bother my sister to deliver it in person." Hong Zhuang hurriedly ran to the door to take the bowl from the man.
"Sister, don't say that. I'm just a servant girl. This kind of thing should be done. Sister, you are busy. Sister, I'm going down." The maid nodded to Hong Zhuang, closed the door and walked out.
Hong Zhuang held the bowl of medicine but didn't turn around for a long time, Su Yiran called out in wonder, "Hong Zhuang?"
Hong Zhuang seemed to come back to her senses, turned around and said hastily, "Ah, ah?"
"you are sick?"
Seeing the worry in Su Yiran's eyes, Hong Zhuang bowed her head a little guilty and said, "What's wrong, it's just some medicine that prostitutes drink regularly."
When Su Yiran realized it, she felt that she was asking too many questions, for fear of hurting others' self-esteem.Hong Zhuang looked a little nervous, raised her head to glance at Su Yiran secretly, then lowered her head, and walked over absent-mindedly after a long time.
The medicine was a bit full, and Hong Zhuang lowered her head and took small steps slowly, but when she was about to get to Su Yiran's side, she accidentally stepped on her skirt, and she jumped forward.Su Yiran catches her with sharp eyes and hands, but the medicine in his hand spilled all over Su Yiran.
Su Yiran went out wearing off-white clothes today, and it was very ugly to be sprinkled with soup.Hong Zhuang let out a cry of surprise and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe his clothes, but the medicinal juice had already seeped into it, and she couldn't clean it no matter how much she wiped.
Hong Zhuang turned around in a hurry, and finally said, "My lord, Hong Zhuang can help you take a bath and change clothes. You can't go out with your appearance."
Su Yiran treats Hongzhuang as her younger sister, how can she let a girl serve her in the bath, "It's okay, no need, just help me get some clean clothes."
Hong Zhuang became anxious when she heard this, and knelt down with a thud, "Isn't your son angry with Hong Zhuang? Hong Zhuang is clumsy, but it really wasn't intentional!"
Su Yiran was taken aback by her, what a big deal, why did she kneel down.He was already irritable, but now he lost his patience and said, "All right, everything is up to you, right? Get up quickly!"
With Su Yiran's support, Hong Zhuang stood up and ordered the servant girl to boil water.After a while, Su Yiran soaked in the steaming wooden barrel.
"My lord, Hong Zhuang can rub your back for you." Hong Zhuang came over and asked tentatively.
Su Yiran was a little embarrassed, but she was afraid that she would make some trouble again, so she nodded, jumped forward and climbed to the edge of the wooden barrel, only her jade back as smooth as suet was exposed.
Hong Zhuang carefully gave him the setback, the technique was excellent, and Su Yiran pressed it comfortably.As soon as his body relaxed, his head started to think wildly again. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly asked, "Hongzhuang, how many years have you stayed in Suzhou?"
"Hong Zhuang is from Suzhou, and grew up here since she was a child."
"Oh?" Su Yiran became interested, thinking that she must know about Lanyu when he asked her, so he asked vaguely, "Has Lanyu ever had someone he liked very much before, um... a woman with a good relationship?"
The hand on the back paused, and it took a long time to hear Hong Zhuang whispering, "Second young master is naturally romantic, and has had many women, but I don't think there was any good relationship."
It really is a philandering radish!Su Yiran thought indignantly, he was so beautiful but not so many girls were chasing after him, how could there be so many Yingying Yanyan around Lan Yu who looked like a fairy.
Seeing that Su Yiran was lost in thought, Hong Zhuang hesitated for a moment, then carefully brushed away his hair, his right shoulder was empty, but there were five beautiful ice crystal petals on his left shoulder.The flower was obviously missing a petal, as if it had been torn off abruptly, and couldn't close.
Su Yiran felt that the red makeup hadn't moved for a long time, so she asked
