The trees and flowers bloom together, and the iron locks of the star bridge open.
The dark dust follows the horse and the bright moon follows the person.
All the entertainers are wearing plums, and the singing is all falling plum blossoms.
Jinwu can't help the night, and the jade leaks don't urge each other.
——"The Fifteenth Night of the First Month" by Su Weiwei (Tang Dynasty)
Time was running out, so Bai Fu didn't bother to look for Yichan and ran over. The two women noticed someone was following them behind them, spread out their movements and ran into the alleys of the square. There were no lights here and it was relatively quiet.
Bai Fu was so anxious that he shouted: "Put the child down!"
A woman stopped, turned around to face Bai Fu, and sneered: "Young man, mind your own business. You can't afford to offend our Caiyi Club."
Bai Fu said: "Stop talking nonsense and put the child down."
Seeing that Bai Fu didn't back down, the woman winked and handed the child to another person. A colorful brocade belt appeared in her hand. She gave a light scold and rushed towards Bai Fu. The brocade belt in her hand went straight to Bai Fu's front door.
And go.
Bai Fu turned sideways to avoid the brocade belt and was about to use his grappling hand. Suddenly his nose smelled a sweet smell. "No, the brocade belt is poisonous." Bai Fu quickly held his breath and took a step back.
The woman was quite surprised to see that Bai Fu didn't faint. You must know that her brocade ribbon was infected with the poison of the colorful snow spiders on the snowy plateau. Ordinary people only need to smell a little bit, and they will immediately faint and fall to the ground without missing a beat.
The woman's skirt moved, and her shadowless leg kicked towards Bai Fu's left ribs. Bai Fu closed his Qi to remove toxins, and was unable to exert force, so he retreated several times to dodge. The woman saw what Bai Fu was thinking, and flew out with her legs, not giving Bai Fu any chance.
A chance to breathe again.
Bai Fu suddenly spurted out a breath of true energy, and the breath was already well-balanced. He saw the path of the chain of legs, turned his palm into a knife, and struck hard at the woman's ankle. There was only a "click" sound, and the woman fractured on the spot. Bai Fu hated it.
The despicable act of kidnapping and trafficking children is ruthless and ruthless.
Another woman saw that Bai Fu was so powerful in martial arts that she was no match for her. In desperation, she quickly threw the child in her hand at Bai Fu. When Bai Fu flew to pick him up, he grabbed the woman's belt and rushed up to the eaves to seize the way.
And escape.
Bai Fu snorted coldly, and shot out flying stones from his hand. This flying stone skill was passed down from Tang Gu himself, and it was quite impressive. Bai Fu struck out with all his strength, and it was even more fierce and domineering. The flying stone hit the woman's waist and eye, and the woman screamed in agony.
With a "pop" sound, the two fell from the wall of the square into the opposite courtyard.
Don't chase the poor criminals, it's more important to save people. Bai Fu hurriedly looked after the two children. The boy turned pale with fright. The girl had a heroic look on her face, and her dark eyes were wandering around.
Bai Fu smiled warmly and said, "Do you know where home is? Can I take you home?"
The boy shook his head and nodded again. The girl followed the example of an adult and bowed first, saying, "Thank you to this hero! I know the way home. If you can take my sister and brother home, I will be very grateful!"
Bai Fu secretly praised in his heart: "Ordinary children would be scared to death after experiencing such a dangerous situation. This girl is calm and composed. She will definitely be a person in the future."
Bai Fu glanced at the girl, raised his hands and said with a smile: "We are all children of the world, why bother saying thank you! When I find my junior sister, I will take you home together."
The girl couldn't help but be happy to see Bai Fu treating her as an adult.
Bai Fu took the two children and returned to the square. He quickly searched around and found Yichan. He thought to himself: "This family must be extremely anxious after losing their children. I don't want to delay the important event."
After that, he picked up the two children, followed the direction indicated by the girl, spread out his body, and galloped away. The lantern market was crowded with people. In order to save time, Bai Fu walked through the streets and alleys, jumping from house to house.
The girl felt like she had wings, soaring through the clouds and mist, flying freely. Looking down at the market, thousands of flowers bloomed in the east wind at night, and BMWs filled the road with the fragrance of carvings. She felt like her mind was swaying, wishing that the road home was longer.
…
Arriving at the side door of a mansion, Bai Fu put down the two children. The girl lightly pressed the door knocker, and after a while, several people came out of the door. A beautiful woman in royal attire hugged the two children and cried.
The girl finally struggled out of the beautiful woman's arms and said: "Nurse, don't cry later, thank my benefactor first!"
The beautiful woman in palace attire quickly got up, but she didn't see the young man just now.
It turned out that after Bai Fu confirmed that the two children had found their families, he was afraid that the other party would be too polite and socializing would be cumbersome, so he quietly left while everyone's focus was on these two children.
It was only at this moment that the girl who had been so courageous just shed tears, and Bai Fu's warm laughter echoed in her ears: "We are all children of the world, why should we say thank you!"
…
Bai Fu returned to the square, but still couldn't find Yi Chan. He planned to go back to the "Bashu Guild Hall" in Chongrenfang first, but suddenly he became alert and smelled the danger again.
With a thought in his mind, he took off the hero scarf from his head, tied it with several loops in a specific way, and tied it to his left arm. Then he wandered around the place where he last saw Yichan.
In less than a stick of incense, a wandering doctor came to Bai Fu. After saluting, he took out a pen and paper, drew a few talisman-like things, and handed it to Bai Fu. Bai Fu took the paper and pen, and placed the talisman on it.
He added a few strokes in a few places. When Lang Zhong saw it, he bowed deeply and said: "I am at the helm of Xu Ye, Chang'an, Qinggang. I wonder what your orders are, young hero?"
Bai Fu quickly informed Yichan that he was missing.
Xu Ye said: "Don't worry, young hero, maybe I can find some clues."
Xu Ye took Bai Fu and quickly walked to a beggar who was catching lice and whispered a few words. The beggar stood up and carried five bags. As soon as he raised his hand, a group of beggars gathered around. Bai Fu pressed the five bags of beggars.
According to the request, Yichan's dress was described in detail.
I heard a young beggar say: "I have seen this girl, she got into a carriage."
…
"Girl, you are so handsome! You are right to come to my house. My rouge and gouache is a time-honored brand in Chang'an, specially for ladies in the palace. These styles are the most popular this year. The rose fragrance box is beautiful and charming.
The most favorite thing used by ladies in the palace is the osmanthus incense box, which is elegant and graceful. It is bought by daughters-in-law to honor their mothers-in-law. The snow lotus incense box is just introduced from the Western Regions and is new this year. The jasmine incense box is elegant and refined, especially suitable for your age.
"
Seeing that Yichan was very interested, the old lady setting up the stall took the trouble to introduce each item patiently. The old lady had a kind face and a nice, low and gentle voice.
"Here, rub it on your hands and try it. Smell it? Is it the smell I mentioned?" The old woman picked out a scent box and used a rabbit hair brush to gently apply it on Yichan's bright wrist.
When Yi Chan smelled it, it was exactly what the old lady said. It was elegant, refined and refreshing.
"Girl, I also have several kinds of Luopa soaked in fragrance. Holding it in your arms makes you feel like you have been among the flowers all day long, like a spring breeze." The mother-in-law took out a few pieces of Luopa from the drawer, and put them in Yichan's hand.
Slowly shake it in front of your face.
"Here, here are the beautiful peonies, and here are the mandarin ducks playing in the water. Look at the eyes of the two mandarin ducks, they can move!" Yi Chan only felt that the old woman's eyes were kind and gentle, and there was a ball of spring water flowing in her eyes.
…
…
Yichan was half asleep and half awake, not knowing where she was. All she felt was that her whole body was soft and limp, her eyelids were dull and she couldn't lift them up. She seemed to be on a carriage, because she was swaying just now and now she suddenly stopped.
There was a creak of the door, the carriage door opened, and someone got on the carriage. The old woman's pleasant voice sounded again: "Sir, are you satisfied with this baggage?"
"Well, not bad, quite on point." A young man's voice sounded.
"Then I will unload the goods?" said the mother-in-law.
"Go to the mansion tomorrow to collect the silver reward." The young master thanked him.
"Thank you very much, sir. Please take care of me in the future." said the mother-in-law.
"Well, you can go." The young master was a little impatient.
"Okay, I'll take my leave."
"Start painting." The young master said to the other person.
After the old woman got off the carriage, the carriage started again and continued moving forward.
