Jiaohua

Chapter 1472
The sun is bright and the water is clear and radiant. After many days of trekking and traveling, eating and sleeping in the open air, Xia Zhaoyi finally went to the city to rest today. He brought Zhan Ning and Shi Guoxin into Jidipingyu County.

Pingyu County was the first city that Tian Dayao captured in Jidi, and was later beaten back by Yun Bozhong's Yannan Army.

Those few battles were fought vigorously, Geng Hui, one of the five fierce generals under Tian Dayao's command, died in this battle, and his subordinates escaped and surrendered.

It was also in those battles that Xia Zhaoyi hated a character, Qian Fengrong.

Qian Fengrong was from Pingyu County, and he followed Geng Hui's Xunlong Army. Before the Xunlong Army collapsed, Qian Fengrong was ordered to rescue the wife and children of a general.

Because the Yannan army wanted to recruit this general, he treated the general's wife and children with courtesy, and gave him a BMW car when he was on the way.As a result, Qian Fengrong mistook the wife and children as members of the Yannan Army, and killed them all in one go. General Lang's youngest son, who was only three years old, was also cut off by him.

After Qian Fengrong knew about the wrongful killing, he fled overnight. Since then, without military discipline and strong government control, he became more rampant and unscrupulous in the troubled times.

Zhan Ning sighed and said: "Fortunately, Qian Fengrong was only rampant for a while, before he had time to completely disrupt the world, we will destroy him first."

Xia Zhaoyi led the reins and walked beside him. Hearing this, he slightly bent his lips and followed her through the city gate with the tick-tock of the horse's hooves.

The scenery in the city is actually better than expected, the buildings on the street are high-rise, spacious and clean, but there are very few pedestrians, there are only a few sporadic prime-age men, and the rest are mostly old people, women and children.

I asked all the way for "Zhao's Inn", and when I found it, it was completely dark.

The shopkeeper heard that the visitor's surname was Ouyang, and he was single-named Xueshi, so he greeted him personally, and asked in a low voice, "But Miss Ali?"

Xia Zhaoyi said, "It's me."

"Come on, Miss Ali, please come inside." The shopkeeper said respectfully.

He tilted his head and ordered the men to lead the horse to the backyard, and then welcomed Xia Zhaoyi and the others upstairs.

After entering the room, the shopkeeper closed the door, raised his hands and cupped his fists and said, "Miss Ali, I've been looking forward to it for a long time! Zhao Wenwen is in Xiaqing Que Pavilion."

"Mr. Zhao." Xia Zhaoyi also raised his hand.

"It's a coincidence that the girl came. There were only three letters in the morning, all related to the girl. However, one of them was a message."

"The message said...?"

"That's what the girl asked us to investigate, the portrait of Yangliulou."

Xia Zhaoyi raised his eyebrows: "Have you found it?"

Zhao Wenwen nodded: "The girl may be surprised when you say it. In fact, there is also a Yangliu Building in Pingyu County. It has not been open for a long time. It also posted portraits in those dark alleys. There are exactly the same words on the portrait, and The words are exactly the same. We found out that the person in the portrait is Yangliulou looking for a savior."

"Savior? Shopkeeper, do you know the details?"

"Come on, girl, please sit down first." Zhao Wenwen walked over and said.

The man knocked on the door, brought tea, put it down and left.

Zhao Wenwen brought two letters from the desk, the letters were addressed to him, the letters had been opened, and the envelopes were curled up and wrinkled badly.

Zhao Wenwen put it in Xia Zhaoyi's hand: "These two letters were sent one by one, and they were sent by Feishu. They are all related to the stone statue of the Goddess in Leigong Mountain in Guizhou. You can take it back to your room to see later."

Xia Zhaoyi put it away: "Okay."

"Continue to talk about Yangliu Tower," Zhao Wenwen sat down beside Shi Guoxin, and said, "They want to find this benefactor, who appeared in Congxin Mansion in Youzhou last winter."

Zhan Ning was startled, and looked at Xia Zhaoyi: "Last winter month, Youzhou Congxin Mansion. Second Miss, isn't it Kang Jian who you are looking for?"

Xia Zhaoyi glanced at him, then looked back at Zhao Wenwen, waiting for him to continue.

Zhao Wenwen said: "This Yangliu Tower is not an ordinary inn. Its internal organization is complex, its system is huge, and its external defenses are strict. At the Waiyikou, one of their hall masters was hunted down by the pursuers, he was seriously injured, and was looted and looted by countless passers-by outside the city gate, but this hero stood out when he saw the road was rough."

Xia Zhaoyi frowned and thought about it. In his memory, Kang Jian had never mentioned this matter to her.

Shi Guoxin said: "Second Miss, is it Kang Jian?"

Xia Zhaoyi shook his head: "I don't know, I have to go back and ask."

Zhao Wenwen said: "Oh, by the way, the girl wants us to check the painter."

"Well, did you hear that too?"

"I found out, this person is Wen Baixi, a master of calligraphy and painting at the intersection of Zhangqiu Road in Huzhou Prefecture. The master of this Mr. Baixi is Shun Cen, and his master is the famous Shui Moqiu."

Xia Zhaoyi said: "No wonder, it turns out to be from the ink and ink autumn."

"That's right, this ink and ink autumn is really an inexhaustible talent, and he has taught his disciples all his money, and he has given birth to countless masters!"

Dongyue's Congxin Mansion and Shui Moqiu's disciples, the combination of these two factors inevitably made Xia Zhaoyi think of a person, Tai Zicang.

And his wife, Bai Qingyuan, who was hung high above the city tower.

Xia Zhaoyi said lightly: "Yes, Shui Moqiu, everyone too."

The guys had already prepared three upper rooms, and after Xia Zhaoyi and the others returned to the rooms, the warm water for bathing was ready.

Xia Zhaoyi didn't rush to take a bath, and sat down to read the two letters from Zhao Wenwen.

The goddess statue in Leigong Mountain really did not appear by chance after a thunderstorm, but was dug out by someone.

It's just that the people who dug the mountain were not the forces she thought, but a few merchants in Guizhou who mined rocks privately.

Hejing city defense was rebuilt, Xizhou official road was rebuilt, and Guizhou Avenue was to be paved. The cost of stone materials was extremely fast. In order to make money, they secretly brought people to mine. As a result, the inside of the mountain was actually empty.

Because she wanted to use this incident as a bait, the statue of the Goddess spread throughout Guizhou and Xizhou in just two days, and the people of Qingquege followed up during this period of time and found out that there were many Less caught fish.

At the end of the letter, it was mentioned that Yan Jun contacted Zou Xiabu to intervene in the trail of these "fish".

The signing date of the letter was yesterday.

Xia Zhaoyi smiled slightly, running on the ground is indeed not as good as flying in the sky, and separated from Shen Lie in Yunzhou, four or five days have passed in a flash, and when he arrived here, he could receive news from him yesterday.

It wasn't that Yan Jun wanted to meddle in "Yu's" trail, it was he who wanted to meddle.

With him sitting in New China, and him catching those fish, she felt a sense of stability.

Running around on the road these days, she ordered herself not to think about him, and she really could do it, as long as she thought of him, she would be cut off immediately, and she would never touch the softness in her heart.

But now, looking at the word Yan Jun on the letter, she couldn't stop, and couldn't bear to stop herself.

His deep and focused black eyes seemed to be walking out of the letter, staring deeply at her.
