Travel back to ancient times to be a beautician
Chapter 135: Digging the Grave
In midsummer, the sun shines on the land, and the two mountains are green and undulating, interspersed with a big river, sparkling like a silver ribbon falling in the middle, dotted with black dots sporadically on the ribbon.
Sunan leaned against the side of the boat, looking at the beautiful scenery outside the boat, the blue sky and white clouds, the sun shining unobstructed on the deck, the air was a little hot, but the eyes were full of emerald green, and the mood was much cooler.
He seemed to be resting on the side of the boat, closing his eyes and resting his mind, but he couldn't close his eyes. Looking at the elegant and luxuriously furnished boats around him, his mouth was almost drooling.
This big ship is definitely the best ship Sunan saw in the Zhou Dynasty. The whole ship is five stories high. From the outside, it is just a more delicate passenger ship. But when you walk into it, the walls are tightly sealed with fine silk cloth. sticky.In the corridor, there is a yellow rosewood coffee table five steps away, with auspicious cloud handles to hold the flower pots on it tightly.
The whole big boat seems to be a little more elegant, but the materials used in the details are extremely particular. Even the canopy in the corridor is made of brocade with a hundred taels of silver a foot. Sunan walked all the way, secretly thinking about the whole big boat How much will it cost.
But before Sunan could figure it out, he saw Mr. Wang Chengmin coming out of the back room, refreshed, his eyes lit up when he saw Sunan, he approached and said hello, "Nephew Su Xian, how are you, are you used to this boat?" ?”
Sunan Xiaoji Peckmi nodded: "I'm used to sitting, I'm used to sitting." It's a pity that such a good boat doesn't belong to him.
Wang Chengmin said with a smile on his face: "That's good. It's a pity that Mr. Li fainted as soon as he got on the boat. Otherwise, it would be interesting to go to the deck to see the vast scenery."
Sunan chuckled, Li Lizhi didn't know why, but his face turned pale as soon as he got on the boat, and now he was still lying on the bed with a bucket beside the bed, spitting out from time to time, he was so seasick.
Lin Jun walked in from the outside of the boat, saw the two people at the door, was taken aback for a moment, and said to Wang Chengmin, "Master Wang."
Wang Chengmin looked at Lin Jun with great interest. Now that Lin Jun was away from home, he did not show others by his real name, but returned to his previous name. The outline is smooth and heroic.
Wearing a dark blue dress, with a crown of hair erected high, he is full of energy, like a heroic knight in the rivers and lakes.
"Thanks to Master Wang this time." Lin Jun's face was rarely soft, and Sunan also expressed his thanks sincerely: "Yes, yes, thanks to Master Wang for giving us a ride."
Tickets on the Grand Canal are relatively difficult to buy. It just so happened that the few orders that Sunan handed over to Wang Chengmin were shipped from the capital to the south, so they took his private boat and set off from the capital. It took about ten days to get there. to the destination.
As soon as the words were finished, a sound of footsteps came from upstairs, and the ears of several people present were sharpened, and they involuntarily stopped speaking.
A man in Chinese clothes came down from upstairs with a smile on his face. When he saw a few people downstairs, his eyes lit up slightly. He walked down quickly and greeted them.
"Master Wang, Brother Lin, Mr. Su, what a coincidence." The man in Chinese clothes is about 30 years old, with a dark complexion, not handsome, with a smile in his eyes. When talking to people, although It sounds reasonable, but there is always a bit of arrogance in the action, which makes people not feel much intimacy.
Unusual, Lin Jun's complexion tightened, became serious, and he nodded without saying too much.Sunan had a good temper, and smiled at him with his mouth open, his white teeth were dazzling, but he made the other party dazzled, smiled, and set his eyes on Master Wang.
"I took a look upstairs just now. Master Wang's boat is really fine. I just took a look and found that the main material of the whole hull is red silk wood. Based on this calculation, the price may not be cheap." The man said indifferently. said with a smile.
"Haha, Mr. Jia praised it highly. The old man used this red silk wood because he valued its incorruptible and immortal effect. It is much better when used in shipbuilding." Master Wang said with a big laugh.
The name of this person is Jia Changqing, and he is the inspector who came with Lin Jun this time. He was originally the censor Zhongcheng of the imperial court. current position.
Envy appeared in Jia Changqing's eyes, and he said, "Master Wang spent a lot of energy on this boat to obtain such an exquisite thing."
"Not much, not much, only 3 to [-] taels." Master Wang said heartily with a smile on his face.
Sunan's heart seemed to be stabbed, he laughed a few times, and thought to himself: Why are these people so rich, they spent 3 to [-] taels of silver to build a boat.In comparison, compared to my little wealth, it's really...too weak.
Having said that, Sunan's eyes kept glancing around, showing a somewhat pitiful look. When will he be able to be so proud, throwing out 3 to [-] taels without blinking his eyes? of.
Several people chatted for a while, Jia Changqing had been chatting with Mr. Wang very excitedly, and Sunan couldn't be bothered, so he went back to the room alone. When it was dinner time, Mr. Wang invited everyone to the hall for dinner.
The dishes in the evening are exquisite and luxurious, the ingredients are extremely exquisite, and the chef's skills are exquisite, even not weaker than the chefs of some big restaurants.There were not many people attending the banquet, except for Sunan and Lin Jun, Su Yang also accompanied him, Li Lizhi's face was pale, but he couldn't face the face of the host and guest, sitting on the seat, he didn't dare to eat anything, he could only drink some hot water .
After drinking and eating, several people went back to their rooms to rest. Sunan and Lin Jun returned to his room and chatted about the journey.
Sunan casually lit a spice, and the silver hairpin fiddled with it casually. He was wearing a loose satin jacket. The river surface was a bit cool at night. Even though it was approaching midsummer, the wind was mixed with water vapor, making it inexplicably cool.
With a lazy and relaxed appearance, he concentrated on teasing the things in his hands, and the atmosphere in the room inexplicably dropped a bit, a little depressed.
Lin Jun looked at his expression tentatively, and murmured, "This time, I'm the one who's sorry for you." At the end of the speech, he was full of guilt and didn't dare to look at Sunan's expression.
Sunan wasn't angry, it was funny: "What do you have to do to me?"
Lin Jun looked at it, but stopped talking.Sunan knew what he wanted to say, smiled, kept moving his hands, and said: "Sometimes there will be a fate, if it's not mine, it's not mine."
Lin Jun looked at him with regret in his eyes.
Although Xueyao was rescued, the incident became too big and it reached the ears of the Holy One.No matter which emperor is jealous of the treasures of the previous dynasty, how could the current emperor miss it.But the current scene is three percent true and seven percent true.
One of the purposes of the Holy Majesty ordering Lin Jun to go to the south of the Yangtze River this time was also to find the treasure.As for Li Lizhi, if he hides the remnants of the previous dynasty, if he punishes the crime deeply, it will inevitably be a serious crime that will implicate the whole family.In order to escape the crime, the third elder told the Holy One that Li Lizhi was the head of the Li family and had a close relationship with the head of the previous generation, so he must know the clues to the treasure.
In fact, it was just throwing out one person to take the blame. It just so happened that Li Lizhi was the one who took the post.
The Holy Order ordered Lin Jun and Li Lizhi to go to the south of the Yangtze River, and they must find out the clues to the real treasure.If the two cannot find clues to the real treasure, they will be punished severely.
This time when he came to Jiangnan, Sunan did not bring Songzhu, but came alone. Su Yang went to Jiangnan to find a master. They seemed to be investigating a certain case, and the clues were broken when they reached Zhao Licheng. I heard what to do next. , this time it was purely a companion with him.As for Jia Changqing, he was investigating the corruption case with Lin Jun in name, but in fact, Sunan secretly speculated that it was to monitor a few people.
Not to mention, if it wasn't for Lin Jun and Li Lizhi, Sunan would have thought of something crooked, and would be a little annoyed at the thought of this.A duck with a mouthful of words can be poked in by others. What can he say, what else can he say?
Su Nan raised his head and glanced at Lin Jun, seeing his gloomy expression on his brows and deep eyes, thinking that he still cared about this matter, he patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "What's so important to care about." In the beginning, the treasure was like a big cake drawn on paper, not as good as the reality of his business.
Moreover, the horoscope has not been written yet, and it is not known who will win and who will win.
Lin Jun hesitated to speak, with complicated eyes, stretched out his arms and hugged Sunan tightly, and said softly, "Sorry."
Just when the two were about to say something, there was a knock on the door. The two of them frowned at the same time and parted with displeasure in their eyes. Then they heard a voice from outside the door: "Mr. Lin, I'm sorry." Jia Changqing's voice was hoarse.
Lin Jun seemed to have woken up early, glanced at Sunan, and opened the door. Jia Changqing smiled slightly, walked in from the door, closed the door by the way, and bowed to Lin Jun: "Wei Guogong." Then he turned to Sunan , did not salute, but smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Su." It was regarded as a greeting.
"What's the matter?" Lin Jun's expression was slightly indifferent, and Jia Changqing chuckled twice, and said, "I came here today just to discuss with the Duke and Lord about the corruption case and the treasure case."
Lin Jun narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes were sharp: "What do you mean?" Even if he didn't say anything, Lin Jun felt that he was caught in the middle and his identity was delicate. He and another respected adult were responsible for the corruption case. Check, who knows, it was replaced by Jia Changqing temporarily.Although the latter has served in the court longer than him, his seniority and qualifications are obviously not as good as the former.
The previous adult was of the same generation as his father, and he was considered acquainted with him. He took care of him a lot when he was young, and let him be in charge of investigating the case. Lin Jun was willing to be the second, and respecting each other was nothing.It's just that it was replaced by Jia Changqing, but Lin Jun quit. What the hell is going on?
Thinking of this, Lin Jun's eyes were gloomy, and he looked at Jia Changqing with some hostility.Sunan secretly speculated about the twists and turns in his heart, with a smile on his face, he remained silent.Lin Jun has always been deeply trusted by the Holy Majesty, so it is not appropriate to make such an arrangement this time.
Jia Changqing smiled slightly, his brows and eyes tinged with pride: "Wei Guogong, the Holy Majesty has already stated that I will be in charge of this inspection. Naturally, I will be in charge of two cases." To be honest, the Holy Majesty's arrangement this time is obviously beyond his expectations. Medical treatment, although the official position and reputation are not as good as Lin Jun, it is possible to step on him in this matter, wouldn't you feel happy?
Thinking of this, Jia Changqing felt disdainful, this Xia Xiuxin was just a warrior, how could he understand the twists and turns in the officialdom?It's no wonder that the Holy Spirit ordered him to be in charge of investigating the corruption case. As for the treasure case, huh...
Jia Changqing was jealous in his heart, this corruption case involved a lot, and he didn't know how many ministers of the court and China were involved in the open and secret, if he wanted to investigate thoroughly, he had to find someone who was not shallow, or had a high reputation, and was innocent.
The Holy Majesty wants to gain prestige, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and it is easier to find someone who does not have a deep foundation to investigate, how to investigate, and how deep to investigate, he has a better idea of himself.Find a person of high morals and high prestige to investigate, even if the entire court is turned upside down, I have a deep foundation, and it will not hurt my bones.
Obviously, the Holy Majesty is more inclined to the former, just investigating this corruption case will inevitably bring him a lot of trouble.Although it was the best opportunity to stand out, it also brought him many dangers. If he succeeds, he will succeed;
In contrast, Lin Jun's treasure case seemed too easy. Although a military order was issued, if he really found the treasures, it would definitely be a great achievement, and the effort and danger spent would be much less.From this point of view, the Holy Majesty is indeed eccentric.
If he can take these two credits to him... he secretly has a plan in his heart, but he doesn't show it on his face.
Lin Jun's eyes suddenly turned cold, he sneered twice, and said, "The sage made it clear that you were only in charge of the corruption case, when will you be in charge of the treasure case?"
"No, my lord, you are looking carefully at the letter from the Holy Majesty. It is written in black and white, stating that I am the supervisor of the Jiangnan party." Jia Changqing said with a smile: "Since it is the Jiangnan party, it is naturally impossible to just refer to the corruption case. One piece."
Sunan's eyes were quite meaningful, just as Lin Jun said, because he didn't understand the private rules of auditing and officialdom, this corruption case was originally investigated by one person and assisted by another.It's just that I heard that it was not Jia Changqing, but another experienced adult who came here. For some reason, he was changed temporarily.
But speaking of it this way, Jia Changqing just took advantage of a wording loophole.The corruption case was investigated by Jia Changqing, but what does the treasure case have to do with him?
He probably also knows Jia Changqing's intentions, if the treasure case and corruption case can really achieve something, it must be a good opportunity to shine.
Sunan's face was half a smile but not a smile, this Jia Changqing really did it, he was very courageous, ordinary people would be frightened when they met Lin Jun, and he was the only one who was so cunning that he was not afraid of tigers.
"It's not that I don't believe in Wei Guogong's strength, it's just that...this treasure was first discovered by Mr. Su, and the Duke and Su are on good terms. Such a large amount of wealth, in exchange for who... Before finishing the words behind, Jia Changqing grinned at them with a hypocritical smile.
Lin Jun suddenly sank, his face turned black, and he was burning with anger, "What did you say!" Jia Changqing was frightened, stepped back a few steps, and said with a smile: "No, my lord, don't be angry." Rumor has it that Wei Guogong is very scary , It really wasn't for small talk, just now, his feet were so frightened that his feet went limp.
Sunan pulled Lin Jun back, and suddenly smiled, "Then, how should Master Jia think these two things should be arranged?"
Jia Changqing's eyes lit up, thinking that Sunan had obeyed for the time being, and said with a smile: "Well, I just think that it would be too hard for Mr. Su and Mr. Li to go."
Sunan smiled lightly: "Fart, let go." He said, what a big deal it can be.
Jia Changqing choked for a moment, his face was ugly. No one had ever spoken to him like this before. He looked at Lin Jun standing beside him, and a smirk appeared on his face: "I'm just worried that Mr. Su is weak and tired from traveling all the way. How about arranging someone to go with Mr. Su as a servant who drives a carriage and carries luggage?"
It sounded so good, but in fact, it was just worrying about Sunan and Li Lizhi, who took the credit for themselves.Lin Jun glanced at him, and said, "I will arrange someone to go with the two, so I won't bother Master Jia."
Sunan rolled his eyes, pulled Lin Jun over, and smiled lightly: "Oh, but I am short of a servant here. If Mr. Jia is not afraid of wronging the subordinates, why not come to me and be a groom."
Lin Jun glanced at Sunan suspiciously, not knowing what he was selling, Sunan gave him a reassuring look.Looking at Jia Changqing like this, I don't know what the hell he is going to do, but this time he is accompanied by Lin Jun's deputy general, and his martial arts are not weak. Even if Jia Changqing wants to play tricks, isn't there him?
Seeing Sunan's agreement, Jia Changqing's eyes sparkled, and he kept smiling and said, "No wrong, no wrong, if that's the case, then there will be Mr. Laosu."
After Jia Changqing left, Lin Jun looked at Sunan with an ugly expression: "Why did you agree to Jia Changqing's request." This time he can't accompany Sunan, who knows if there will be danger on the way?The adjutant can't rest assured that he is by the side. Now that such a time bomb has been planted, how can he be relieved?
The young man is just too impatient, Sunan looked at Lin Jun with a smile, put one hand on his arm, and said with a smile on his face: "It's better to stab you in the open than to stab you in the dark. "
Besides, even if Jia Changqing sends people to follow him, it's no big deal, the left and right are just to make things difficult for him, is he still afraid of people who make things difficult?
On the contrary, he was worried about Lin Jun, who had an honest personality. This time he was investigating the case with Jia Changqing, and Sunan was afraid that he would suffer a disadvantage, and he would be used as a shield to block the knife if he was used as a knife.
There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and a trace of tenderness flashed in Lin Jun's eyes. He was really not worried about Sunan, but...
There was a dark light in the deep eyes, this time Sunan was wronged, and it may not be him who suffers every time.Lin Jun secretly made up his mind, thinking of the adjutant accompanying him this time, he already had other plans.
This night, everyone has different plans in their hearts.
After traveling for two days, the boat finally arrived at the boundary of Jinzhou. Li Lizhi called Sunan on the bed, and when they got there, the private boat docked in Jinzhou, and they hired a carriage to drive westward to Yixi Town.
When Li Lizhi said this, his face was still pale, and the handsome and handsome appearance before disappeared, but now he was thinking of a weak chicken, Sunan suppressed his smile, I never thought that a person like Li Lizhi would get seasick, and he was so dizzy .
He greeted Master Wang and asked him to quietly put them in Jinzhou.Wang Chengmin didn't know the purpose of this trip, but looking at Jia Changqing and Lin Jun, he could vaguely guess something, but he couldn't guess completely. He is a smart man, he knows what he can say and ask.
"Oh? Mr. Su got off the ship in Jinzhou? Naturally, there is no problem." Wang Chengmin laughed heartily. After a few days on the ship, Sunan did what he liked and discussed a lot of allusions about spices. So, after he finishes his work, he will come to the south of the Yangtze River and let him do his best as a landlord.
Sunan agreed with a smile on his face, with a humble and polite attitude.Lin Jun was beside him when he said this, looking at his dark eyes, he felt a lot more at ease.
Before leaving, Jia Changqing assigned him a man in his 30s named A Kang, who had been by Jia Changqing's side for the past few days, like a guard.He has a straight face and dark skin, but there is a bit of evil spirit on his face, and his face looks a little fierce.
"Mr. Su." Akang nodded to him and greeted him. Sunan responded gently. The three hired a carriage and drove the carriage all the way in the direction indicated by Li Lizhi, heading west. Go to Xizhen.
Li Lizhi's seasickness seemed to heal when he got off the carriage. This kind of thing is really mysterious.He found a clean stream along the way, and only said he would stop and rest for a while.Sunan really thought he was not feeling well, so he stopped, but Li Lizhi ran to the side of the creek, asking Akang to help carry the package.
He washed his face with clear stream water, took out the bronze mirror, and washed his face carefully with bath beans, put down his hair again, and adjusted his appearance in front of the mirror.It's just that when I encountered difficulties in tying my hair, I turned to Sunan and said in a very natural tone: "Please help me."
Sunan:......
He rolled his eyes, he is really poor, just these few people will live like noble sons, there are many bodyguards and book boys, and he has become a servant.
Akang next to him looked a little wrong, but he probably thought the same as Sunan Ding in his heart.
Sunan still went up to tie his hair silently. Although the clothes were a little wrinkled, after washing his face and applying something to his face, it was really different from his previous weak appearance, with a different radiance, and the whole person looked He was full of energy and his eyes were burning.
Several people continued to set off, and Akang was driving the carriage outside alone, and the space inside was a bit large.There was also a wooden table. Sunan had nothing to do. He chatted with Li Lizhi about the itinerary. Sunan posted it with a smile and asked, "By the way, how is the third elder in your family?"
But with water on his hands, he wrote on the wooden table: How sure is it?
Li Lizhi glanced at Sunan, and said: "It's pretty good, eat well and sleep well, and gained a few pounds of fat after returning home."
Also wrote: [-]%.
Sunan couldn't bear to look directly at him, and kept chatting with him about other things, but kept writing with his hands.
[-]% sure, their wealth and lives are all on this. "Are you really not in a hurry?" Sunan wrote, I heard that the Li family is in serious trouble this time, if they can't find the treasure, it will be a felony, but judging by Li Lizhi's appearance, he is not in a hurry at all.
He still ate and drank well, probably the third elder was anxious to get smoke from his head, but he didn't care at all.
Li Lizhi curled his lips and wrote: What's the rush, the worst is ransacking the house and beheading, and he will be a hero again after 18 years.Besides, punishing crimes cannot cure your head.
After finishing writing, he closed his eyes, leaned against the wall of the carriage, closed his eyes and meditated, with a relaxed expression, not as if he was fully sure, but rather as if he had nothing to do with himself.
Sunan looked at him with complicated eyes. It didn't matter to him, but it was Lin Jun's business. He had issued a military order.And Li Lizhi's appearance is too strange, no matter how bad his relationship with his family is, it's not so silent and indifferent.
He sighed deeply, and only hoped that nothing would go wrong.
A few people came to Jinzhou City in a horse-drawn carriage, and found an inn to stay in, and each of them went to a room.After paying the money, Sunan greeted a buddy and said, "Dude, please send me a letter to the Shunyang Escort Bureau. This is my reward."
The clerk agreed to come down in a hurry, took the reward, took the letter from Sunan, went out in a hurry, and then went up like a normal person.
The three of them came to Jinzhou City in the early afternoon. After dinner, they went back to the house to rest. At around [-]:[-], there was a knock on the door: "Guest officer, guest officer, someone is looking for you downstairs." It was the guy who Sunan asked him to deliver the letter before.
Presumably it was people arriving, so Sunan hurriedly asked people to come up. In less than a cup of tea, a tall and mighty man came up from the stairs. His hair was tightly tied, his face was square, his face was firm, his figure was burly, and his eyes were piercing. , dressed in a dark blue bunt, showing forearms, strong muscles, and full of momentum.
Seeing Sunan, the man took the lead in saluting, "I've seen Mr. Su."
The name of the person who came was Fang Xun. He was originally an adjutant under Lin Jun. He left Xia Hujun to marry and have children. He opened a local bodyguard agency and was quite famous in the local area. Naturally, his martial arts were not low. Lin Jun beat him up first. call.
Presumably Lin Jun asked about their travel plans in advance, and ordered him to wait in Jinzhou early to accompany them on the road to protect their safety.
"Boss Fang is really polite, I have to trouble you this time." Sunan hurriedly helped him up, "The room has been booked, we are going this time mainly for..." So he ended the trip Fang Xun listened carefully, nodding his head from time to time to indicate his understanding.
"Mr. Su, don't worry, with Fang X here this time, you will never be at a disadvantage." A look of determination flashed across his face. The general had already stated in his letter the itinerary this time, and also explained all the important relationships in it. Any mistakes are allowed.
One night passed, and when they set off early in the morning, Sunan introduced Fang Xun to the two of them, and one of them ran out of nowhere, Li Lizhi was a little surprised, but he said hello beforehand, and he was mentally prepared, they exchanged names and set off.
In contrast, Akang was a bit surprised: "Oh, this is Fang Xun, the head of the Shunyang Escort Bureau?"
With a serious expression, Fang Xun solemnly clasped his fists and said, "Exactly."
Sunan couldn't figure it out for a while, is the Shunyang Escort Bureau very famous, why hasn't he heard of it?Without changing his face, he asked Li Lizhi beside him, but the latter also had a confused face and didn't know about it.
Seeing Sunan's puzzled look, Akang seemed a little surprised, but he still explained from the side: "Shunyang Escort Bureau is very famous in the Jianghu. It has transported many important goods, and its reputation is very wide." Thinking of this, Akang Kang felt sad and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Jia Changqing just ordered him to follow Sunan and Li Lizhi this time. If he really had a clue, he would supervise and escort the clue all the way to meet them, and did not order to snatch it.
Fang Xun was modest and only said what he was supposed to do.In fact, to set up an escort agency and travel the rivers and lakes, all parties must manage it, and they need to pay attention to loyalty.It's just that there were a few times when the employer entrusted a few things, and the risk factor was too high, and no one was willing to accept it. He accepted it, and despite many obstacles, it was completed without any surprises, and he also gained a reputation by the way.
Sunan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fang Xun's reliability also made him feel more at ease. If there is any accident on the road, he will always be able to deal with it.
The four of them set off on the road, hurriedly and slowly, and the journey was tiring. It took nearly seven days for the group of four to arrive at Spring Mountain Town.
Li Lizhi once secretly told Sunan that the fragrance in the spring fragrance was a kind of flower, as far as he knew, only one place had it.
Yixi Town is a small town, not too prosperous, with a warm and humid climate. It had just rained a few days ago, with blue bricks and white tiles, and misty rain. There is a small river flowing through the town. Along the river, it is a lush The mountains stretch on and on.
Although the town is not prosperous, it is still bustling. Most of the villagers are very simple. One can tell at a glance that there is no pressure here, and all kinds of living materials are available, making them extremely comfortable.
Ever since Li Lizhi came to Yixi Town, he seemed more peaceful, his eyes were often blank, staring at a place without moving, and he didn't react until Sunan waved in front of him.
"Hey, what's the matter?" Sunan shook his hand and asked with a concerned expression. It's rare to see him like this. Li Lizhi woke up from his daze, shook his head, and said, "It's nothing."
"This is Yixi Town, it's up to you how to go next." Judging from his appearance, he seemed a little taciturn.But he didn't want to say it, and Sunan was too embarrassed to delve into it, so he could only change the topic to other aspects.
According to the road pointed by Li Lizhi, they have arrived at Yixi Town. According to him, this place is very close to the location of the treasure map.
"Follow the river in the town, let's go up and into the mountains." Li Lizhi said.
"Entering the mountain..." Akang frowned, pondered for a moment and said, "It's the rainy season now, will it be unsafe to enter the mountain?"
Sunan looked up to the sky and sighed, didn't he go if it was not safe?It's not safe. They are going to enter the mountain. This treasure map is not just a matter of talking.
Akang also felt that what he was talking about was nonsense, so he shut up and stopped talking. A few people packed up their things, hired a boat, rowed the boat, and went upstream.
At that time, the river was running fast. Although the sky was bright, it could be vaguely seen that there had been a heavy rain not long ago.The few people spent a lot of effort, rowing for about ten miles, along the small river, the further they go, the deeper the surrounding mountains and forests, and there are traces of undeveloped places everywhere, but the scenery is very beautiful. It is beautiful, with green water and green mountains, mountains and rivers, beautiful mountains and rivers, and the air seems to be clean and fresh after being washed by water.
Although there were few people along the way, and it didn't seem like a dangerous place, but Sunan murmured in his heart that he could find such a place, and Li Lizhi was really good.
Arriving at a river, Li Lizhi commanded the boat to dock on the bank, tied the cable to a big tree, and several people got off the boat, looked around, Li Lizhi turned to them and said, "This is it, by the way." Going through this mountain crevice is our destination."
Hearing this, several people breathed a sigh of relief, Akang's face flashed a trace of eagerness, and said, "Then let's go quickly." Fang Xun and Sunan looked at each other and nodded.
The mountain gap is between two big mountains, and the road is relatively easy to walk. Fang Xun quietly analyzed a few words to Sunan on the way. Although the road is simple, it can be seen that someone has opened it up.I think there must have been people who were active before I came here. Looking at the road, it should be repaired from time to time. At least some people have walked by it in the past few years.
Akang leads, followed by Li Lizhi, and Sunan and Fang Xun are at the bottom, walking at the end.The footsteps were steady, and there was no unnecessary nonsense between the four of them. Sunan secretly speculated in his heart, seeing Li Lizhi's appearance, he seemed to be very familiar with this place.
After walking through a crack in the mountain and climbing up a mountain, Sunan's eyes were sharp, and he saw a mountainside from a distance, with several houses dotted among the green forest.
"There are still people living in this place." Akang was amazed. They walked halfway, it can be said that the birds are not shitting, and they are very hidden.Li Lizhi exhaled and said, "Here we are, it's here."
In the distance is a wooden hut, which is located on the flat ground on the mountainside. It can be seen that this hut is extremely elegantly built, surrounded by lush forests, and the dark green forests cover the wooden huts, revealing With a slight corner, the sense of tranquility in the dense forest.
Hearing that the place was mentioned, several people were all relieved, but although it seemed easy to the eyes, it was a difficult task to walk up.Li Lizhi led the people along a road, and Sunan found that although the path could be vaguely seen, it was covered with thorns, and it was easy to see how long no one had passed by, and it gradually became deserted.
It took a lot of effort for them to break free from the bushes and stumble forward. Fang Xun led the way, Sunan and Li Lizhi walked in the middle, and Akang was at the bottom.Walking in the middle, Sunan seemed to smell a strange smell on the tip of his nose, raised his eyebrows, and his heart was filled with excitement.
This smell smells like a faint fragrance, rich in fragrance and long aftertaste, it seems to be a wonderful floral fragrance, but it is not like the fragrance of ordinary flowers, but has a kind of...unspeakable Feel.
Sunan's nose was a little itchy, and he sneezed "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"s, which alarmed Li Lizhi in front of him. He turned his head and glanced at Sunan who was rubbing his nose, and said, "It's almost there." Nan's nose is sensitive, and it's normal to smell something wrong.
The few people followed Li Lizhi, and finally walked out of the dense forest. The surrounding area seemed to be much more open, with green grass, and a touch of white appeared in the eyes. There was a ripple.
The eyes of several people were widened. The light in the dense forest was dim before, and it looked a little gloomy, but they didn't expect that just a few steps away, there would be a world of difference.Here, the air is fresh, the sky is blue, and the white waves above the emerald green are like a paradise, which is simply too beautiful to behold.
Li Lizhi's eyes flashed a trace of regret, and he said "here we are", and raised his eyes upwards. The several exquisite wooden houses above are connected by roads, and the roads are winding, but it is much easier to walk than before. A mountain and rocky path winds upwards , leading directly to the cabin.
However, Sunan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his eyes were a little startled, and he pointed to the sea of white flowers in front of him and asked, "This... what kind of flower is this?" , just added such an unheard of fragrance, now it seems that it is this kind of flower.
He suddenly felt a little itchy, since it was a fragrance he had never smelled before, it must be some kind of unusual spice, in other words, it was a small amount, cherished, or simply unique to this world.
Sunan poked and poked and glanced, his eyes rolled around. Even if the future is more developed, some things will always disappear with the passage of time. This kind of white flower may be some kind of exotic flower that has become extinct. Grass, oh my god, this is really worth it.
Sunan's eyes were bright, and he couldn't hold back his claws, so he wanted to pick two flowers, but he didn't expect that Li Lizhi's attention was not on the white flowers at all, but was about to go to the wooden house, halfway, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Su Nan. Looking eager to try, Nan frowned and said, "Su Nan, what are you doing?"
Immediately, everyone's eyes shifted to Sunan, who withdrew his hand wistfully, sneered, and looked guilty: "Uh, it's nothing, let's go." Forget it, the white flowers will grow, and the business is still important .
Li Lizhi walked in front, light and familiar with the way, Sunan's heart came alive, his eyes turned, he was a little curious, looking at Li Lizhi's appearance, he was familiar with this place, he must have been here before, and stayed there A lot of time.
This place seems to be a good place to live in seclusion. Sunan raised his head and looked at the sky. The sky is as blue as the bright sea. The valley is surrounded by birds and flowers, and the climate is warm.He glanced around the valley, and saw that there seemed to be traces of reclamation in many places, which were neat and tidy, but they had not been taken care of for a long time, and they were a bit barren.
Li Lizhi moved forward all the way, and finally came to the front of the cabin, and stopped. The others thought they were going in, but Li Lizhi said: "Put all your luggage here, just bring a shovel. "
Fuck, this, this is about to start?Su Nan looked confused, and looked at each other in blank dismay with the others. Fang Xun looked at Sunan, as if he was waiting for him to speak.
"Go now?" Sunan's face twitched, he was too anxious, didn't he take a rest?
Li Lizhi took out a jar from his salute, held it in his arms, and looked up at the sky with some doubts: "You look at the sky, it's still early, shouldn't you hurry up and act?"
Uh, what he said seemed to make sense, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he told the other two: "Just follow what Mr. Li said, and prepare all the tools."
Fang Xun looked around, and originally wanted to say to put the luggage in the house, but he looked around, the sky was clear, and it didn't seem like there were thieves coming to steal.So they got up one after another, Fang Xun and Akang took out some scattered tools from the salute, and quickly assembled them into two shovels, each carrying one.
Fang Xun asked sincerely: "Mr. Li, besides the shovel, do you need some self-defense weapons?"
Li Lizhi thought for a moment, then shook his head and said: "It should not be necessary, a shovel can dig the soil enough."
All you need is a shovel. Could it be that this thing is buried under the soil?Thinking this way, Sunan breathed a sigh of relief. Before he came, he had imagined that this journey would be difficult and dangerous. Now, it seems that it is very simple?
Sunan saw that Li Lizhi was holding an unattractive pot from his backpack, cautiously, and wanted to change the direction, but he didn't dare to make a big movement, his hands were unsteady, and the movement looked a little funny, so he kindly stepped forward and asked, "Do you want me to?" help you?"
Li Lizhi glanced at him and shook his head: "No, I want to carry this thing by myself."
Sunan felt relieved when he was rejected, but he was a little curious looking at the jar in his hand. He had been walking with him before, so why didn't he find that he was carrying such a heavy celadon jar?Can't help but be a little curious about what's inside.
The wooden house is located on the mountainside, covered by trees. There is a winding path going up from the back mountain. Several people, Fang Xun and Akang are carrying shovels, Li Lizhi and Sunan walk in front.His physical strength was not bad, but Li Lizhi was a little out of breath along the way.
"Do you know where that thing is buried?" Sunan asked curiously.
"I don't know..." Li Lizhi spoke slowly, talking while walking, consuming most of his physical strength, and there was fine sweat on his forehead. "To tell you the truth, I don't know what that thing is, so I can only try to find it."
Li Lizhi was telling the truth. When he first smelled the scent of rejuvenation, he knew that the unheard-of spice was the white flowers in full bloom.Perhaps my father had already made arrangements for all of this.
He lowered his eyes, taking a panoramic view of the complex look in his eyes, without letting anyone notice.
Sunan said "En", seeing that Li Lizhi was really tired and flustered, he stepped forward to help him, half pulling and half pulling, the speed increased a lot, and it didn't take long before he reached the top of the mountain.
The grass and trees on the top of the mountain are rustling, and occasionally two pines and cypresses stand on the edge of the cliff, green and dripping. There are few bushes on a flat ground, and there are two small soil mounds standing side by side on the lawn in the middle.
Sunan leaned against the side of the boat, looking at the beautiful scenery outside the boat, the blue sky and white clouds, the sun shining unobstructed on the deck, the air was a little hot, but the eyes were full of emerald green, and the mood was much cooler.
He seemed to be resting on the side of the boat, closing his eyes and resting his mind, but he couldn't close his eyes. Looking at the elegant and luxuriously furnished boats around him, his mouth was almost drooling.
This big ship is definitely the best ship Sunan saw in the Zhou Dynasty. The whole ship is five stories high. From the outside, it is just a more delicate passenger ship. But when you walk into it, the walls are tightly sealed with fine silk cloth. sticky.In the corridor, there is a yellow rosewood coffee table five steps away, with auspicious cloud handles to hold the flower pots on it tightly.
The whole big boat seems to be a little more elegant, but the materials used in the details are extremely particular. Even the canopy in the corridor is made of brocade with a hundred taels of silver a foot. Sunan walked all the way, secretly thinking about the whole big boat How much will it cost.
But before Sunan could figure it out, he saw Mr. Wang Chengmin coming out of the back room, refreshed, his eyes lit up when he saw Sunan, he approached and said hello, "Nephew Su Xian, how are you, are you used to this boat?" ?”
Sunan Xiaoji Peckmi nodded: "I'm used to sitting, I'm used to sitting." It's a pity that such a good boat doesn't belong to him.
Wang Chengmin said with a smile on his face: "That's good. It's a pity that Mr. Li fainted as soon as he got on the boat. Otherwise, it would be interesting to go to the deck to see the vast scenery."
Sunan chuckled, Li Lizhi didn't know why, but his face turned pale as soon as he got on the boat, and now he was still lying on the bed with a bucket beside the bed, spitting out from time to time, he was so seasick.
Lin Jun walked in from the outside of the boat, saw the two people at the door, was taken aback for a moment, and said to Wang Chengmin, "Master Wang."
Wang Chengmin looked at Lin Jun with great interest. Now that Lin Jun was away from home, he did not show others by his real name, but returned to his previous name. The outline is smooth and heroic.
Wearing a dark blue dress, with a crown of hair erected high, he is full of energy, like a heroic knight in the rivers and lakes.
"Thanks to Master Wang this time." Lin Jun's face was rarely soft, and Sunan also expressed his thanks sincerely: "Yes, yes, thanks to Master Wang for giving us a ride."
Tickets on the Grand Canal are relatively difficult to buy. It just so happened that the few orders that Sunan handed over to Wang Chengmin were shipped from the capital to the south, so they took his private boat and set off from the capital. It took about ten days to get there. to the destination.
As soon as the words were finished, a sound of footsteps came from upstairs, and the ears of several people present were sharpened, and they involuntarily stopped speaking.
A man in Chinese clothes came down from upstairs with a smile on his face. When he saw a few people downstairs, his eyes lit up slightly. He walked down quickly and greeted them.
"Master Wang, Brother Lin, Mr. Su, what a coincidence." The man in Chinese clothes is about 30 years old, with a dark complexion, not handsome, with a smile in his eyes. When talking to people, although It sounds reasonable, but there is always a bit of arrogance in the action, which makes people not feel much intimacy.
Unusual, Lin Jun's complexion tightened, became serious, and he nodded without saying too much.Sunan had a good temper, and smiled at him with his mouth open, his white teeth were dazzling, but he made the other party dazzled, smiled, and set his eyes on Master Wang.
"I took a look upstairs just now. Master Wang's boat is really fine. I just took a look and found that the main material of the whole hull is red silk wood. Based on this calculation, the price may not be cheap." The man said indifferently. said with a smile.
"Haha, Mr. Jia praised it highly. The old man used this red silk wood because he valued its incorruptible and immortal effect. It is much better when used in shipbuilding." Master Wang said with a big laugh.
The name of this person is Jia Changqing, and he is the inspector who came with Lin Jun this time. He was originally the censor Zhongcheng of the imperial court. current position.
Envy appeared in Jia Changqing's eyes, and he said, "Master Wang spent a lot of energy on this boat to obtain such an exquisite thing."
"Not much, not much, only 3 to [-] taels." Master Wang said heartily with a smile on his face.
Sunan's heart seemed to be stabbed, he laughed a few times, and thought to himself: Why are these people so rich, they spent 3 to [-] taels of silver to build a boat.In comparison, compared to my little wealth, it's really...too weak.
Having said that, Sunan's eyes kept glancing around, showing a somewhat pitiful look. When will he be able to be so proud, throwing out 3 to [-] taels without blinking his eyes? of.
Several people chatted for a while, Jia Changqing had been chatting with Mr. Wang very excitedly, and Sunan couldn't be bothered, so he went back to the room alone. When it was dinner time, Mr. Wang invited everyone to the hall for dinner.
The dishes in the evening are exquisite and luxurious, the ingredients are extremely exquisite, and the chef's skills are exquisite, even not weaker than the chefs of some big restaurants.There were not many people attending the banquet, except for Sunan and Lin Jun, Su Yang also accompanied him, Li Lizhi's face was pale, but he couldn't face the face of the host and guest, sitting on the seat, he didn't dare to eat anything, he could only drink some hot water .
After drinking and eating, several people went back to their rooms to rest. Sunan and Lin Jun returned to his room and chatted about the journey.
Sunan casually lit a spice, and the silver hairpin fiddled with it casually. He was wearing a loose satin jacket. The river surface was a bit cool at night. Even though it was approaching midsummer, the wind was mixed with water vapor, making it inexplicably cool.
With a lazy and relaxed appearance, he concentrated on teasing the things in his hands, and the atmosphere in the room inexplicably dropped a bit, a little depressed.
Lin Jun looked at his expression tentatively, and murmured, "This time, I'm the one who's sorry for you." At the end of the speech, he was full of guilt and didn't dare to look at Sunan's expression.
Sunan wasn't angry, it was funny: "What do you have to do to me?"
Lin Jun looked at it, but stopped talking.Sunan knew what he wanted to say, smiled, kept moving his hands, and said: "Sometimes there will be a fate, if it's not mine, it's not mine."
Lin Jun looked at him with regret in his eyes.
Although Xueyao was rescued, the incident became too big and it reached the ears of the Holy One.No matter which emperor is jealous of the treasures of the previous dynasty, how could the current emperor miss it.But the current scene is three percent true and seven percent true.
One of the purposes of the Holy Majesty ordering Lin Jun to go to the south of the Yangtze River this time was also to find the treasure.As for Li Lizhi, if he hides the remnants of the previous dynasty, if he punishes the crime deeply, it will inevitably be a serious crime that will implicate the whole family.In order to escape the crime, the third elder told the Holy One that Li Lizhi was the head of the Li family and had a close relationship with the head of the previous generation, so he must know the clues to the treasure.
In fact, it was just throwing out one person to take the blame. It just so happened that Li Lizhi was the one who took the post.
The Holy Order ordered Lin Jun and Li Lizhi to go to the south of the Yangtze River, and they must find out the clues to the real treasure.If the two cannot find clues to the real treasure, they will be punished severely.
This time when he came to Jiangnan, Sunan did not bring Songzhu, but came alone. Su Yang went to Jiangnan to find a master. They seemed to be investigating a certain case, and the clues were broken when they reached Zhao Licheng. I heard what to do next. , this time it was purely a companion with him.As for Jia Changqing, he was investigating the corruption case with Lin Jun in name, but in fact, Sunan secretly speculated that it was to monitor a few people.
Not to mention, if it wasn't for Lin Jun and Li Lizhi, Sunan would have thought of something crooked, and would be a little annoyed at the thought of this.A duck with a mouthful of words can be poked in by others. What can he say, what else can he say?
Su Nan raised his head and glanced at Lin Jun, seeing his gloomy expression on his brows and deep eyes, thinking that he still cared about this matter, he patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "What's so important to care about." In the beginning, the treasure was like a big cake drawn on paper, not as good as the reality of his business.
Moreover, the horoscope has not been written yet, and it is not known who will win and who will win.
Lin Jun hesitated to speak, with complicated eyes, stretched out his arms and hugged Sunan tightly, and said softly, "Sorry."
Just when the two were about to say something, there was a knock on the door. The two of them frowned at the same time and parted with displeasure in their eyes. Then they heard a voice from outside the door: "Mr. Lin, I'm sorry." Jia Changqing's voice was hoarse.
Lin Jun seemed to have woken up early, glanced at Sunan, and opened the door. Jia Changqing smiled slightly, walked in from the door, closed the door by the way, and bowed to Lin Jun: "Wei Guogong." Then he turned to Sunan , did not salute, but smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Su." It was regarded as a greeting.
"What's the matter?" Lin Jun's expression was slightly indifferent, and Jia Changqing chuckled twice, and said, "I came here today just to discuss with the Duke and Lord about the corruption case and the treasure case."
Lin Jun narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes were sharp: "What do you mean?" Even if he didn't say anything, Lin Jun felt that he was caught in the middle and his identity was delicate. He and another respected adult were responsible for the corruption case. Check, who knows, it was replaced by Jia Changqing temporarily.Although the latter has served in the court longer than him, his seniority and qualifications are obviously not as good as the former.
The previous adult was of the same generation as his father, and he was considered acquainted with him. He took care of him a lot when he was young, and let him be in charge of investigating the case. Lin Jun was willing to be the second, and respecting each other was nothing.It's just that it was replaced by Jia Changqing, but Lin Jun quit. What the hell is going on?
Thinking of this, Lin Jun's eyes were gloomy, and he looked at Jia Changqing with some hostility.Sunan secretly speculated about the twists and turns in his heart, with a smile on his face, he remained silent.Lin Jun has always been deeply trusted by the Holy Majesty, so it is not appropriate to make such an arrangement this time.
Jia Changqing smiled slightly, his brows and eyes tinged with pride: "Wei Guogong, the Holy Majesty has already stated that I will be in charge of this inspection. Naturally, I will be in charge of two cases." To be honest, the Holy Majesty's arrangement this time is obviously beyond his expectations. Medical treatment, although the official position and reputation are not as good as Lin Jun, it is possible to step on him in this matter, wouldn't you feel happy?
Thinking of this, Jia Changqing felt disdainful, this Xia Xiuxin was just a warrior, how could he understand the twists and turns in the officialdom?It's no wonder that the Holy Spirit ordered him to be in charge of investigating the corruption case. As for the treasure case, huh...
Jia Changqing was jealous in his heart, this corruption case involved a lot, and he didn't know how many ministers of the court and China were involved in the open and secret, if he wanted to investigate thoroughly, he had to find someone who was not shallow, or had a high reputation, and was innocent.
The Holy Majesty wants to gain prestige, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and it is easier to find someone who does not have a deep foundation to investigate, how to investigate, and how deep to investigate, he has a better idea of himself.Find a person of high morals and high prestige to investigate, even if the entire court is turned upside down, I have a deep foundation, and it will not hurt my bones.
Obviously, the Holy Majesty is more inclined to the former, just investigating this corruption case will inevitably bring him a lot of trouble.Although it was the best opportunity to stand out, it also brought him many dangers. If he succeeds, he will succeed;
In contrast, Lin Jun's treasure case seemed too easy. Although a military order was issued, if he really found the treasures, it would definitely be a great achievement, and the effort and danger spent would be much less.From this point of view, the Holy Majesty is indeed eccentric.
If he can take these two credits to him... he secretly has a plan in his heart, but he doesn't show it on his face.
Lin Jun's eyes suddenly turned cold, he sneered twice, and said, "The sage made it clear that you were only in charge of the corruption case, when will you be in charge of the treasure case?"
"No, my lord, you are looking carefully at the letter from the Holy Majesty. It is written in black and white, stating that I am the supervisor of the Jiangnan party." Jia Changqing said with a smile: "Since it is the Jiangnan party, it is naturally impossible to just refer to the corruption case. One piece."
Sunan's eyes were quite meaningful, just as Lin Jun said, because he didn't understand the private rules of auditing and officialdom, this corruption case was originally investigated by one person and assisted by another.It's just that I heard that it was not Jia Changqing, but another experienced adult who came here. For some reason, he was changed temporarily.
But speaking of it this way, Jia Changqing just took advantage of a wording loophole.The corruption case was investigated by Jia Changqing, but what does the treasure case have to do with him?
He probably also knows Jia Changqing's intentions, if the treasure case and corruption case can really achieve something, it must be a good opportunity to shine.
Sunan's face was half a smile but not a smile, this Jia Changqing really did it, he was very courageous, ordinary people would be frightened when they met Lin Jun, and he was the only one who was so cunning that he was not afraid of tigers.
"It's not that I don't believe in Wei Guogong's strength, it's just that...this treasure was first discovered by Mr. Su, and the Duke and Su are on good terms. Such a large amount of wealth, in exchange for who... Before finishing the words behind, Jia Changqing grinned at them with a hypocritical smile.
Lin Jun suddenly sank, his face turned black, and he was burning with anger, "What did you say!" Jia Changqing was frightened, stepped back a few steps, and said with a smile: "No, my lord, don't be angry." Rumor has it that Wei Guogong is very scary , It really wasn't for small talk, just now, his feet were so frightened that his feet went limp.
Sunan pulled Lin Jun back, and suddenly smiled, "Then, how should Master Jia think these two things should be arranged?"
Jia Changqing's eyes lit up, thinking that Sunan had obeyed for the time being, and said with a smile: "Well, I just think that it would be too hard for Mr. Su and Mr. Li to go."
Sunan smiled lightly: "Fart, let go." He said, what a big deal it can be.
Jia Changqing choked for a moment, his face was ugly. No one had ever spoken to him like this before. He looked at Lin Jun standing beside him, and a smirk appeared on his face: "I'm just worried that Mr. Su is weak and tired from traveling all the way. How about arranging someone to go with Mr. Su as a servant who drives a carriage and carries luggage?"
It sounded so good, but in fact, it was just worrying about Sunan and Li Lizhi, who took the credit for themselves.Lin Jun glanced at him, and said, "I will arrange someone to go with the two, so I won't bother Master Jia."
Sunan rolled his eyes, pulled Lin Jun over, and smiled lightly: "Oh, but I am short of a servant here. If Mr. Jia is not afraid of wronging the subordinates, why not come to me and be a groom."
Lin Jun glanced at Sunan suspiciously, not knowing what he was selling, Sunan gave him a reassuring look.Looking at Jia Changqing like this, I don't know what the hell he is going to do, but this time he is accompanied by Lin Jun's deputy general, and his martial arts are not weak. Even if Jia Changqing wants to play tricks, isn't there him?
Seeing Sunan's agreement, Jia Changqing's eyes sparkled, and he kept smiling and said, "No wrong, no wrong, if that's the case, then there will be Mr. Laosu."
After Jia Changqing left, Lin Jun looked at Sunan with an ugly expression: "Why did you agree to Jia Changqing's request." This time he can't accompany Sunan, who knows if there will be danger on the way?The adjutant can't rest assured that he is by the side. Now that such a time bomb has been planted, how can he be relieved?
The young man is just too impatient, Sunan looked at Lin Jun with a smile, put one hand on his arm, and said with a smile on his face: "It's better to stab you in the open than to stab you in the dark. "
Besides, even if Jia Changqing sends people to follow him, it's no big deal, the left and right are just to make things difficult for him, is he still afraid of people who make things difficult?
On the contrary, he was worried about Lin Jun, who had an honest personality. This time he was investigating the case with Jia Changqing, and Sunan was afraid that he would suffer a disadvantage, and he would be used as a shield to block the knife if he was used as a knife.
There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and a trace of tenderness flashed in Lin Jun's eyes. He was really not worried about Sunan, but...
There was a dark light in the deep eyes, this time Sunan was wronged, and it may not be him who suffers every time.Lin Jun secretly made up his mind, thinking of the adjutant accompanying him this time, he already had other plans.
This night, everyone has different plans in their hearts.
After traveling for two days, the boat finally arrived at the boundary of Jinzhou. Li Lizhi called Sunan on the bed, and when they got there, the private boat docked in Jinzhou, and they hired a carriage to drive westward to Yixi Town.
When Li Lizhi said this, his face was still pale, and the handsome and handsome appearance before disappeared, but now he was thinking of a weak chicken, Sunan suppressed his smile, I never thought that a person like Li Lizhi would get seasick, and he was so dizzy .
He greeted Master Wang and asked him to quietly put them in Jinzhou.Wang Chengmin didn't know the purpose of this trip, but looking at Jia Changqing and Lin Jun, he could vaguely guess something, but he couldn't guess completely. He is a smart man, he knows what he can say and ask.
"Oh? Mr. Su got off the ship in Jinzhou? Naturally, there is no problem." Wang Chengmin laughed heartily. After a few days on the ship, Sunan did what he liked and discussed a lot of allusions about spices. So, after he finishes his work, he will come to the south of the Yangtze River and let him do his best as a landlord.
Sunan agreed with a smile on his face, with a humble and polite attitude.Lin Jun was beside him when he said this, looking at his dark eyes, he felt a lot more at ease.
Before leaving, Jia Changqing assigned him a man in his 30s named A Kang, who had been by Jia Changqing's side for the past few days, like a guard.He has a straight face and dark skin, but there is a bit of evil spirit on his face, and his face looks a little fierce.
"Mr. Su." Akang nodded to him and greeted him. Sunan responded gently. The three hired a carriage and drove the carriage all the way in the direction indicated by Li Lizhi, heading west. Go to Xizhen.
Li Lizhi's seasickness seemed to heal when he got off the carriage. This kind of thing is really mysterious.He found a clean stream along the way, and only said he would stop and rest for a while.Sunan really thought he was not feeling well, so he stopped, but Li Lizhi ran to the side of the creek, asking Akang to help carry the package.
He washed his face with clear stream water, took out the bronze mirror, and washed his face carefully with bath beans, put down his hair again, and adjusted his appearance in front of the mirror.It's just that when I encountered difficulties in tying my hair, I turned to Sunan and said in a very natural tone: "Please help me."
Sunan:......
He rolled his eyes, he is really poor, just these few people will live like noble sons, there are many bodyguards and book boys, and he has become a servant.
Akang next to him looked a little wrong, but he probably thought the same as Sunan Ding in his heart.
Sunan still went up to tie his hair silently. Although the clothes were a little wrinkled, after washing his face and applying something to his face, it was really different from his previous weak appearance, with a different radiance, and the whole person looked He was full of energy and his eyes were burning.
Several people continued to set off, and Akang was driving the carriage outside alone, and the space inside was a bit large.There was also a wooden table. Sunan had nothing to do. He chatted with Li Lizhi about the itinerary. Sunan posted it with a smile and asked, "By the way, how is the third elder in your family?"
But with water on his hands, he wrote on the wooden table: How sure is it?
Li Lizhi glanced at Sunan, and said: "It's pretty good, eat well and sleep well, and gained a few pounds of fat after returning home."
Also wrote: [-]%.
Sunan couldn't bear to look directly at him, and kept chatting with him about other things, but kept writing with his hands.
[-]% sure, their wealth and lives are all on this. "Are you really not in a hurry?" Sunan wrote, I heard that the Li family is in serious trouble this time, if they can't find the treasure, it will be a felony, but judging by Li Lizhi's appearance, he is not in a hurry at all.
He still ate and drank well, probably the third elder was anxious to get smoke from his head, but he didn't care at all.
Li Lizhi curled his lips and wrote: What's the rush, the worst is ransacking the house and beheading, and he will be a hero again after 18 years.Besides, punishing crimes cannot cure your head.
After finishing writing, he closed his eyes, leaned against the wall of the carriage, closed his eyes and meditated, with a relaxed expression, not as if he was fully sure, but rather as if he had nothing to do with himself.
Sunan looked at him with complicated eyes. It didn't matter to him, but it was Lin Jun's business. He had issued a military order.And Li Lizhi's appearance is too strange, no matter how bad his relationship with his family is, it's not so silent and indifferent.
He sighed deeply, and only hoped that nothing would go wrong.
A few people came to Jinzhou City in a horse-drawn carriage, and found an inn to stay in, and each of them went to a room.After paying the money, Sunan greeted a buddy and said, "Dude, please send me a letter to the Shunyang Escort Bureau. This is my reward."
The clerk agreed to come down in a hurry, took the reward, took the letter from Sunan, went out in a hurry, and then went up like a normal person.
The three of them came to Jinzhou City in the early afternoon. After dinner, they went back to the house to rest. At around [-]:[-], there was a knock on the door: "Guest officer, guest officer, someone is looking for you downstairs." It was the guy who Sunan asked him to deliver the letter before.
Presumably it was people arriving, so Sunan hurriedly asked people to come up. In less than a cup of tea, a tall and mighty man came up from the stairs. His hair was tightly tied, his face was square, his face was firm, his figure was burly, and his eyes were piercing. , dressed in a dark blue bunt, showing forearms, strong muscles, and full of momentum.
Seeing Sunan, the man took the lead in saluting, "I've seen Mr. Su."
The name of the person who came was Fang Xun. He was originally an adjutant under Lin Jun. He left Xia Hujun to marry and have children. He opened a local bodyguard agency and was quite famous in the local area. Naturally, his martial arts were not low. Lin Jun beat him up first. call.
Presumably Lin Jun asked about their travel plans in advance, and ordered him to wait in Jinzhou early to accompany them on the road to protect their safety.
"Boss Fang is really polite, I have to trouble you this time." Sunan hurriedly helped him up, "The room has been booked, we are going this time mainly for..." So he ended the trip Fang Xun listened carefully, nodding his head from time to time to indicate his understanding.
"Mr. Su, don't worry, with Fang X here this time, you will never be at a disadvantage." A look of determination flashed across his face. The general had already stated in his letter the itinerary this time, and also explained all the important relationships in it. Any mistakes are allowed.
One night passed, and when they set off early in the morning, Sunan introduced Fang Xun to the two of them, and one of them ran out of nowhere, Li Lizhi was a little surprised, but he said hello beforehand, and he was mentally prepared, they exchanged names and set off.
In contrast, Akang was a bit surprised: "Oh, this is Fang Xun, the head of the Shunyang Escort Bureau?"
With a serious expression, Fang Xun solemnly clasped his fists and said, "Exactly."
Sunan couldn't figure it out for a while, is the Shunyang Escort Bureau very famous, why hasn't he heard of it?Without changing his face, he asked Li Lizhi beside him, but the latter also had a confused face and didn't know about it.
Seeing Sunan's puzzled look, Akang seemed a little surprised, but he still explained from the side: "Shunyang Escort Bureau is very famous in the Jianghu. It has transported many important goods, and its reputation is very wide." Thinking of this, Akang Kang felt sad and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Jia Changqing just ordered him to follow Sunan and Li Lizhi this time. If he really had a clue, he would supervise and escort the clue all the way to meet them, and did not order to snatch it.
Fang Xun was modest and only said what he was supposed to do.In fact, to set up an escort agency and travel the rivers and lakes, all parties must manage it, and they need to pay attention to loyalty.It's just that there were a few times when the employer entrusted a few things, and the risk factor was too high, and no one was willing to accept it. He accepted it, and despite many obstacles, it was completed without any surprises, and he also gained a reputation by the way.
Sunan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fang Xun's reliability also made him feel more at ease. If there is any accident on the road, he will always be able to deal with it.
The four of them set off on the road, hurriedly and slowly, and the journey was tiring. It took nearly seven days for the group of four to arrive at Spring Mountain Town.
Li Lizhi once secretly told Sunan that the fragrance in the spring fragrance was a kind of flower, as far as he knew, only one place had it.
Yixi Town is a small town, not too prosperous, with a warm and humid climate. It had just rained a few days ago, with blue bricks and white tiles, and misty rain. There is a small river flowing through the town. Along the river, it is a lush The mountains stretch on and on.
Although the town is not prosperous, it is still bustling. Most of the villagers are very simple. One can tell at a glance that there is no pressure here, and all kinds of living materials are available, making them extremely comfortable.
Ever since Li Lizhi came to Yixi Town, he seemed more peaceful, his eyes were often blank, staring at a place without moving, and he didn't react until Sunan waved in front of him.
"Hey, what's the matter?" Sunan shook his hand and asked with a concerned expression. It's rare to see him like this. Li Lizhi woke up from his daze, shook his head, and said, "It's nothing."
"This is Yixi Town, it's up to you how to go next." Judging from his appearance, he seemed a little taciturn.But he didn't want to say it, and Sunan was too embarrassed to delve into it, so he could only change the topic to other aspects.
According to the road pointed by Li Lizhi, they have arrived at Yixi Town. According to him, this place is very close to the location of the treasure map.
"Follow the river in the town, let's go up and into the mountains." Li Lizhi said.
"Entering the mountain..." Akang frowned, pondered for a moment and said, "It's the rainy season now, will it be unsafe to enter the mountain?"
Sunan looked up to the sky and sighed, didn't he go if it was not safe?It's not safe. They are going to enter the mountain. This treasure map is not just a matter of talking.
Akang also felt that what he was talking about was nonsense, so he shut up and stopped talking. A few people packed up their things, hired a boat, rowed the boat, and went upstream.
At that time, the river was running fast. Although the sky was bright, it could be vaguely seen that there had been a heavy rain not long ago.The few people spent a lot of effort, rowing for about ten miles, along the small river, the further they go, the deeper the surrounding mountains and forests, and there are traces of undeveloped places everywhere, but the scenery is very beautiful. It is beautiful, with green water and green mountains, mountains and rivers, beautiful mountains and rivers, and the air seems to be clean and fresh after being washed by water.
Although there were few people along the way, and it didn't seem like a dangerous place, but Sunan murmured in his heart that he could find such a place, and Li Lizhi was really good.
Arriving at a river, Li Lizhi commanded the boat to dock on the bank, tied the cable to a big tree, and several people got off the boat, looked around, Li Lizhi turned to them and said, "This is it, by the way." Going through this mountain crevice is our destination."
Hearing this, several people breathed a sigh of relief, Akang's face flashed a trace of eagerness, and said, "Then let's go quickly." Fang Xun and Sunan looked at each other and nodded.
The mountain gap is between two big mountains, and the road is relatively easy to walk. Fang Xun quietly analyzed a few words to Sunan on the way. Although the road is simple, it can be seen that someone has opened it up.I think there must have been people who were active before I came here. Looking at the road, it should be repaired from time to time. At least some people have walked by it in the past few years.
Akang leads, followed by Li Lizhi, and Sunan and Fang Xun are at the bottom, walking at the end.The footsteps were steady, and there was no unnecessary nonsense between the four of them. Sunan secretly speculated in his heart, seeing Li Lizhi's appearance, he seemed to be very familiar with this place.
After walking through a crack in the mountain and climbing up a mountain, Sunan's eyes were sharp, and he saw a mountainside from a distance, with several houses dotted among the green forest.
"There are still people living in this place." Akang was amazed. They walked halfway, it can be said that the birds are not shitting, and they are very hidden.Li Lizhi exhaled and said, "Here we are, it's here."
In the distance is a wooden hut, which is located on the flat ground on the mountainside. It can be seen that this hut is extremely elegantly built, surrounded by lush forests, and the dark green forests cover the wooden huts, revealing With a slight corner, the sense of tranquility in the dense forest.
Hearing that the place was mentioned, several people were all relieved, but although it seemed easy to the eyes, it was a difficult task to walk up.Li Lizhi led the people along a road, and Sunan found that although the path could be vaguely seen, it was covered with thorns, and it was easy to see how long no one had passed by, and it gradually became deserted.
It took a lot of effort for them to break free from the bushes and stumble forward. Fang Xun led the way, Sunan and Li Lizhi walked in the middle, and Akang was at the bottom.Walking in the middle, Sunan seemed to smell a strange smell on the tip of his nose, raised his eyebrows, and his heart was filled with excitement.
This smell smells like a faint fragrance, rich in fragrance and long aftertaste, it seems to be a wonderful floral fragrance, but it is not like the fragrance of ordinary flowers, but has a kind of...unspeakable Feel.
Sunan's nose was a little itchy, and he sneezed "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"s, which alarmed Li Lizhi in front of him. He turned his head and glanced at Sunan who was rubbing his nose, and said, "It's almost there." Nan's nose is sensitive, and it's normal to smell something wrong.
The few people followed Li Lizhi, and finally walked out of the dense forest. The surrounding area seemed to be much more open, with green grass, and a touch of white appeared in the eyes. There was a ripple.
The eyes of several people were widened. The light in the dense forest was dim before, and it looked a little gloomy, but they didn't expect that just a few steps away, there would be a world of difference.Here, the air is fresh, the sky is blue, and the white waves above the emerald green are like a paradise, which is simply too beautiful to behold.
Li Lizhi's eyes flashed a trace of regret, and he said "here we are", and raised his eyes upwards. The several exquisite wooden houses above are connected by roads, and the roads are winding, but it is much easier to walk than before. A mountain and rocky path winds upwards , leading directly to the cabin.
However, Sunan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his eyes were a little startled, and he pointed to the sea of white flowers in front of him and asked, "This... what kind of flower is this?" , just added such an unheard of fragrance, now it seems that it is this kind of flower.
He suddenly felt a little itchy, since it was a fragrance he had never smelled before, it must be some kind of unusual spice, in other words, it was a small amount, cherished, or simply unique to this world.
Sunan poked and poked and glanced, his eyes rolled around. Even if the future is more developed, some things will always disappear with the passage of time. This kind of white flower may be some kind of exotic flower that has become extinct. Grass, oh my god, this is really worth it.
Sunan's eyes were bright, and he couldn't hold back his claws, so he wanted to pick two flowers, but he didn't expect that Li Lizhi's attention was not on the white flowers at all, but was about to go to the wooden house, halfway, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Su Nan. Looking eager to try, Nan frowned and said, "Su Nan, what are you doing?"
Immediately, everyone's eyes shifted to Sunan, who withdrew his hand wistfully, sneered, and looked guilty: "Uh, it's nothing, let's go." Forget it, the white flowers will grow, and the business is still important .
Li Lizhi walked in front, light and familiar with the way, Sunan's heart came alive, his eyes turned, he was a little curious, looking at Li Lizhi's appearance, he was familiar with this place, he must have been here before, and stayed there A lot of time.
This place seems to be a good place to live in seclusion. Sunan raised his head and looked at the sky. The sky is as blue as the bright sea. The valley is surrounded by birds and flowers, and the climate is warm.He glanced around the valley, and saw that there seemed to be traces of reclamation in many places, which were neat and tidy, but they had not been taken care of for a long time, and they were a bit barren.
Li Lizhi moved forward all the way, and finally came to the front of the cabin, and stopped. The others thought they were going in, but Li Lizhi said: "Put all your luggage here, just bring a shovel. "
Fuck, this, this is about to start?Su Nan looked confused, and looked at each other in blank dismay with the others. Fang Xun looked at Sunan, as if he was waiting for him to speak.
"Go now?" Sunan's face twitched, he was too anxious, didn't he take a rest?
Li Lizhi took out a jar from his salute, held it in his arms, and looked up at the sky with some doubts: "You look at the sky, it's still early, shouldn't you hurry up and act?"
Uh, what he said seemed to make sense, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he told the other two: "Just follow what Mr. Li said, and prepare all the tools."
Fang Xun looked around, and originally wanted to say to put the luggage in the house, but he looked around, the sky was clear, and it didn't seem like there were thieves coming to steal.So they got up one after another, Fang Xun and Akang took out some scattered tools from the salute, and quickly assembled them into two shovels, each carrying one.
Fang Xun asked sincerely: "Mr. Li, besides the shovel, do you need some self-defense weapons?"
Li Lizhi thought for a moment, then shook his head and said: "It should not be necessary, a shovel can dig the soil enough."
All you need is a shovel. Could it be that this thing is buried under the soil?Thinking this way, Sunan breathed a sigh of relief. Before he came, he had imagined that this journey would be difficult and dangerous. Now, it seems that it is very simple?
Sunan saw that Li Lizhi was holding an unattractive pot from his backpack, cautiously, and wanted to change the direction, but he didn't dare to make a big movement, his hands were unsteady, and the movement looked a little funny, so he kindly stepped forward and asked, "Do you want me to?" help you?"
Li Lizhi glanced at him and shook his head: "No, I want to carry this thing by myself."
Sunan felt relieved when he was rejected, but he was a little curious looking at the jar in his hand. He had been walking with him before, so why didn't he find that he was carrying such a heavy celadon jar?Can't help but be a little curious about what's inside.
The wooden house is located on the mountainside, covered by trees. There is a winding path going up from the back mountain. Several people, Fang Xun and Akang are carrying shovels, Li Lizhi and Sunan walk in front.His physical strength was not bad, but Li Lizhi was a little out of breath along the way.
"Do you know where that thing is buried?" Sunan asked curiously.
"I don't know..." Li Lizhi spoke slowly, talking while walking, consuming most of his physical strength, and there was fine sweat on his forehead. "To tell you the truth, I don't know what that thing is, so I can only try to find it."
Li Lizhi was telling the truth. When he first smelled the scent of rejuvenation, he knew that the unheard-of spice was the white flowers in full bloom.Perhaps my father had already made arrangements for all of this.
He lowered his eyes, taking a panoramic view of the complex look in his eyes, without letting anyone notice.
Sunan said "En", seeing that Li Lizhi was really tired and flustered, he stepped forward to help him, half pulling and half pulling, the speed increased a lot, and it didn't take long before he reached the top of the mountain.
The grass and trees on the top of the mountain are rustling, and occasionally two pines and cypresses stand on the edge of the cliff, green and dripping. There are few bushes on a flat ground, and there are two small soil mounds standing side by side on the lawn in the middle.
