Everyone outside the inn felt a gust of cold wind blowing, two broken terracotta tiles fell from the roof, and the nan tree in the backyard with all its branches and leaves was like a bunch of withered bones.

Chao Sheng withdrew from the cage, and the remaining fragments of the snake's body turned into magic energy and were sealed by Buddhist beads.After the black demonic energy dissipated, a small golden streamer shield was revealed, and a cloud of chaotic white smoke was protected inside—the remnant soul of Ah Nan

The female ghost was seriously injured by Buddhism the day before yesterday, and now she is hijacked by a snake and burned by flames. In the end, she even experienced a magic nuclear explosion, and she survived miraculously.

Lu Ranfu thought deeply, and took out the concentration pearl from the kit bag.The Lingzhu emitted a warm light, and the golden ball cover melted and evaporated little by little.White smoke lingered around the concentration bead, and the silhouette of a woman gradually became clear.

The Concentration Bead leisurely landed on Chen Nan's hand, and the woman disappeared in a flash of white light.On the smooth surface of the orb, the colorful light flows, and countless influences change and flash back on the surface.

This is a fragment of the ghost's memory during his lifetime.

Several people hastily cleaned up the mess.The sword puppet who lost his arms walked up to Lu Ran.It couldn't hold the boy's hand, so it had to bend down and let Qi Xiu pat its head.Lu Ran felt a little sad in his heart, and promised in a low voice that he would refine a pair of arms for it again.

The core gemstone in the sword puppet's chest was flickering, and the buzzing sound seemed to have a taste of being coquettish. The huge head rubbed against the palm of the tool repairer, and then jumped into the kit bag by himself.

Yuan Ji seemed to have a lot of opinions on this sword puppet.As soon as the sword puppet left, he couldn't wait to come over, holding the boy's hand that touched the sword puppet just now, as if he wanted to use his own body temperature to melt away the tactile sensation left by the sword puppet in the young man's palm.

Cao Butou wanted to arrest Chen Nan again, but A Ying stepped forward and whispered something in his ear, and then took out a waist card.

Cao Butou's eyes were wide open, his expression was horrified and he almost fainted, he was supported by his subordinates in time, and he went back as if he was sleepwalking.When he passed the corner of the street, he happened to see the carriage of the castellan's wife hurrying up.

When the city lord's wife walked into the inn, Lu Ran was trying to project the image on the surface of the concentration bead onto the wall.This time, it wasn't him peeking at the soul with the soul lamp, but someone who voluntarily showed his memory in front of everyone.

The copper lamp burns quietly, and in the swaying firelight, Ah Nan's life is reflected.

------------------

Her original name was not Ah Nan, but she was given another name later.

In other words, this is actually not a name at all, but a unified identification code.

Her real name and surname are unknown.

Yanzhou and Zhou faced each other from north to south, and the inn in the city was taken over by a boss surnamed Zhang and transformed into a brothel.Two or three carpenters came and went, and it took almost six months to repair it.

Her father was a member of the army in Yancheng on the border.After spending the happiest few years of girlhood—the wall of the Yancheng City was broken, and the army of Zhou Guonan rushed into the city.Her father never came back.

She soon fell from Miss Baihu's family to Fengyue Tower.This is just a microcosm of countless miserable lives in troubled times and wars.

On the night when she heard that Yancheng was given to Zhou Guo as an apology, she looked at the Zhou Guo soldiers who were having fun beside her, clenched a sharp piece of porcelain bowl in her sleeve, her eyes were blood red.

She used to be a girl from a hundred families in the Yan Army, and she didn't want to become the person she hated the most.When she killed this Zhou soldier, she committed suicide and went to the underworld to follow her father.

A hand gripped her arm tightly.

She turned her head abruptly, it was Fengyuelou boss Zhang.

Boss Zhang has a slippery appearance and is used to cheating people to spend money with sweet words.He nodded and bowed flatteringly, pulling Ah Nan out of the banquet and into an empty room.

Boss Zhang straightened his back, asked about Ah Nan's life experience, asked about her experience, and finally asked her if she would like to dedicate her life for the now endangered Yan Kingdom.

The broken porcelain in Ah Nan's sleeve fell to the ground with a clatter.

And Yan Jun is hiding in Yancheng!Yancheng has not been abandoned!

From then on, she was called "A Nan".

Wood was born in the south.

It is said that there are many other "A Nan" in other places on the anti-Zhou frontier in the northern border of Yan State.

Later, she became the most charming courtesan in Fengyuelou by virtue of her gentle temperament and bird-like voice.

At the same time, it is also a dark line left by the army of Yan State in Yancheng.

She circled around the drunken Sergeant Zhou who came to the store to drink, quietly listening to the intelligence of Zhou Guo's army.The person who connected with her was a secret guard of Yan Kingdom, surnamed Chen, who pretended to be the son of a rich silk merchant.

He is a very young, very handsome, very handsome young man.

Of course, those most important information will not be easily told to a brothel boss.People who know these secrets will not stay in Yancheng, and it is even more impossible to visit places like brothels at will.

The military situation that really determines the situation must require the spies of Yan State to sneak into the territory of Zhou State to steal it.Those who really decide the situation must also be smuggled into Zhou Kingdom by these dead men to be assassinated.

When Ah Nan saw the dark layer hidden in the floor, she understood the true function of Fengyue Tower:

Hiding Yan Guo's spies.

These spies secretly sneaked into Yancheng, which was strictly sealed by Zhou Jun.In order to avoid being hunted by the soldiers of Zhou State, they sneaked into Fengyue Tower and hid in the dark layer through the secret door in Anan's room.

Several times, Zhou Guo's soldiers had rushed into Fengyue Tower, but they all returned without success.

Whenever this time, Ah Nan would cry and act.While crying about who is his best friend in the army, he will never let them go.While quietly covering the bloodstains left by the entrance of the secret passage with his clothes.

Boss Zhang also threatened, flattered, and bribed these officers and soldiers into a trance.

These soldiers who were annoyed by Ah Nan's crying did not know.The spies of Yan State who they had hunted down for half a month were lying at their feet holding their breath.Blood oozed from the hastily bandaged wound, soaking through the thick felt in the dark.

The dark layer is narrow and closed, filled with dull and turbid air.Sometimes the city was heavily searched, and they were forced to stay in the quiet mezzanine for several days in a row, relying on Ah Nan to find an opportunity to deliver three meals a day, so as to judge the time.

There is no light and no sound in the dark passage.The closed environment is easy to evoke the association of death.They seem to be buried alive in the ground, pressed under the heavy mountains, loneliness and fear are like climbing vines, gradually climbing to the heart.

Sometimes, Ah Nan would boldly open a gap secretly and hum a southern tune.She has a voice like a finch, and she can sing folk tunes of the country of Yan very beautifully.

The eyes of those Yan people hiding in the dark layer were moist.They have not heard such a gentle and tender tune for a long time.

They knew that it was almost impossible for them to come back alive, so they engraved their real names on the dark wood carvings in secret script.I hope that one day, someone will enter the secret passage and understand that this is the proof that they were alive.

Before departure, they will also leave their personal belongings with Ah Nan.I hope that one day, these items entrusted with their longing can replace their bones and return to their hometown.

They were all gifts from their wives and daughters. Even if they were found out, no one would know that these worthless jewelry were the last thoughts of these dead men who were about to sneak into the enemy's country.

Ah Nan often hid these people of different ages and accents in a secret passage on a noisy night, and opened the door with a calm expression to welcome the search.Then, on an unremarkable night a few days later, I watched them leave quietly, and there was no news from then on.

Tomorrow, Merchant Chen should come to Fengyue Tower to meet her.

That handsome young man is really worthy of the words "zhilanyushu, as bright as the moon".No one would not admire him.

In the shadows of the lights, the picture changed.

Zhou's army went south, and Yan's army was defeated across the board.The existence of Fengyue Building has no meaning anymore, and Boss Zhang had already evacuated half a month ago.The new procuress didn't know anything, she was just doing business, and she was pulling a newly bought young prostitute into her room.

The old procuress said in a nasty voice, saying that this girl used to be a young lady from a scholarly family, she just came to the brothel and didn't know the rules, she had a very bad temper, so she asked Ah Nan to discipline her well.

After the bustard went out, Ah Nan looked coldly at the little girl who was only thirteen or fourteen years old. The girl timidly raised her head, her willow-leaf eyes were full of fear, and there was a small mole on her cheek.

Everyone in the inn turned their heads.

In the back seat, the city lord's wife raised her head and looked up, without any shyness on her face.

The new little girl had a very hard time in Fengyue Tower.Ah Nan threw away her rouge and gouache, snatched her Luo Qun gauze clothes, and ordered her to do all kinds of dirty work.

She was pale due to malnutrition and lack of sleep.The customers in the store would frown and scold them away when they saw it.

Occasionally, a drunk customer saw a newcomer and thought it was new, so he forced some money into her hand and dragged her into the house.She pretended to cater, holding a wooden hairpin in her sleeve, her eyes were red.

She used to be a lady from the scholarly family, and she didn't want to become the person she hated the most.When she kills the Zhou Guo drunkard, she commits suicide and goes to the underworld to follow her relatives.

Ah Nan suddenly appeared, smiling sweetly and snatching the guest's soul away in two or three strokes.

The next morning, she forced the wife of the city lord in her girlhood to take out a small piece of silver that the guest forced on her, and threw it out the window into the street with a laugh.

At that time, the little girl was Ah Nan who was mocking her for her low status, she lowered her head and endured the scolding silently, but felt a faint sigh of relief in her heart.Still the same as usual, as Ah Nan's maid, eating and living with her.

In the inn, Lu Ran frowned.

If the one who lives in the same room with Ah Nan is the wife of the former city lord.Then she should have died in the sea of ​​fire long ago.Whose skeleton is buried under the small stone next to the nan tree?

A few nights later, a thin spy, covered in blood, fled into Ah Nan's room.In order to deliver this letter, he was the only one of the six people in the same group to come back alive.

Zhou Guo's army dispatched a surprise soldier, which had already bypassed the defense line of the capital, swung their whips and headed southward, and was about to plunge straight into Yandu like a sharp knife!

The spy was dying, and had no idea that Fengyue Tower, as a hidden thread, had actually been abandoned.

Ah Nan didn't say a word, and hid him in the dark layer as usual.

Chen Nan's father pretended to be a wealthy businessman, and his face was very ugly: "Yancheng is about to be blocked. We have to leave tonight to warn the guards of the capital. Don't bring anything, follow me immediately."

Ah Nan responded, and turned around just as he turned around: "The person in the dark layer is too injured to walk."

Chen Nan's father showed a look of pain: "We can't take him away. Now the city gates are strictly checked, and we tried our best to get out of the city. People in the city know that we are in love, so I will say I am for you." Redeemed, you go quickly."

Seeing that Ah Nan was still hesitating, Chen Nan's father was in a hurry: "What are you waiting for! Boss Zhang and others have already evacuated, and you have been dragging on until now. Zhou Guojin, if you don't leave now, you will never come back went!"

The sky under the twilight on the horizon is like a dove's feather, indigo mixed with purple, and finally it is all reduced to a deep darkness.

In late spring, when the evening wind blew up and catkins were flying all over the city, Ah Nan stared at the handsome man in front of him, with a kind of bitterly suppressed, unknown affection in his eyes, and said softly:

"I still, let's not go."

The author has something to say:

Uuuuuuuuuu I applied for a contract and was rejected again.

In the words of comforting my friends for a long time, I guess I didn’t feel so sad when I failed my graduation defense.
