As soon as someone arrived, an old man with gray hair but a solemn temperament walked into the house. The small room, which was not big at first, seemed a little cramped after another person was added to the room.
"I have heard your subsequent analysis outside. Remember in the future, these words have to be said behind closed doors. Walls have ears, so we have to guard against them." The old man's words were unquestionable. Seeing Murongjing and Liu Meng
Hen agreed respectfully to the old man, and Jiang Yichen also agreed.
"Okay, the room is small, come with me outside." The old man spoke again.
There were two people waiting outside the door. One of them had a shiny face, a headband wrapped around his bald head, and a piece of burlap cloth casually draped over his body. He looked very casual, and his face seemed to be somewhat similar to the white-haired old man.
One man is dressed in white, has a sword, and wears a black cloth cape, clearly dressed as a knight.
Murong Jing introduced to Jiang Yichen that the shiny-faced man named Qi Shanqing was the largest wine merchant in Taoyuan Town and the nephew of the mayor of Taoyuan Town. The young knight in white clothes and sword was named Qiu Yingchu, and he was the young guard chief of the town. And this white man
The old man is naturally Qi Tianwen, the mayor of Taoyuan Town. As a junior, Jiang Yichen has met everyone one by one.
"In the matter of Qianzhulin Winery, since we are sure of what tricks the other party is up to, we will use the trick and ask you to get involved. The four of you can make arrangements accordingly for the specific matters." Mayor Qi made arrangements, then paused and looked at Jiang Yichen
.
"Senior Qi, if you need anything, just ask." Jiang Yichen was a little flustered, but also a little excited. This is also an opportunity to gain experience in the world.
"I would like to thank my little brother for his help this time, but now we only have a few clues, and the rest are mostly analysis and speculation. At the moment, we still need to use various methods to confirm what we have speculated."
"The layout and operation of specific actions, such as checking the pottery workshops in Jiangning County and Suzhou, whether there are any specially customized orders recently, etc. It will take some time to do this well.
The opponent didn't notice at all. I don't know if my little brother has other important matters. If possible, of course I welcome my little brother's help." Mayor Qi returned with a smile on his face, but he changed his face to a kind one.
Mayor Qi's performance shocked the four people around him. When did our Mayor Qi become so amiable? When did our Mayor Qi become so patient and so meticulous in reasoning and explaining to a little kid?
When did our Mayor Qi actually laugh? He laughed! He laughed!
Jiang Yichen had something important to do. He had to go see his old man within the twenty-day deadline, and the task of exploring Qianzhu Forest was only arranged along the way. Mayor Qi's words were so flawless that Jiang Yichen was immediately speechless.
Word.
Murong Jing saw that Jiang Yichen was instantly killed by the mayor, and guessed that Jiang Yichen had just left Xishan Island and was most likely going to find his old man when he came to Jiangning County. He muttered "Smiling Old Fox" and stepped forward.
He came out to rescue Jiang Yichen and said to Mayor Qi with a smile, "Boss Qi, brother Jiang still has something important to attend to. He needs to go to Juyuan to find his old man first. So let him rest in the town for two days first.
I will take him to see Old Boha again as a way of thanking him for his help this time."
Murong Jing originally thought that he could just come out and smooth things over with a smile, but Qi Tianwen's deep look directly shot into Murong Jing's eyes, and he realized that he had been kicked on the stone floor this time.
"Ah, then I will take Brother Jiang to play in the town for a day and send him away tomorrow." Murong Jing estimated that this old fox knew more than him. In this case, he had better get away quickly and seek happiness for himself.
Bar.
Qi Tianwen said nothing more and acquiesced. Except for Murong Jing, the other four people said goodbye to Jiang Yichen and left.
As promised, Murong Jing entertained Jiang Yichen with delicious food and drinks for a whole day. The next day, she and Liu Menghen went to the town gate to see Jiang Yichen off. At the same time, she also handed over the little brown horse and luggage that someone had brought from Majiayi yesterday.
To Jiang Yichen.
"Brother Jiang, your orders cannot be violated, so we have to be sent here. Don't mind." Murong Jing's face was full of smiles, pretending to be almost like the loving smile of Mayor Qi, which made Jiang Yichen originally
There is also a feeling of regret that makes me laugh out loud.
"Brother Murong is serious. I don't want to say much thanks. Thank you and Brother Liu for coming to see me off today. Well, I'll see you later." Jiang Yichen won't say much in terms of thanks, and he won't say much in farewell either. The scene of farewell was a little too awkward.
It was embarrassing, but in my heart I was truly grateful to the two of them, especially Murong Jing. I thought that after meeting the old man, I would come back to Taoyuan Town to get together with them again if I had the chance.
"Haha, little brother, see you later. Come on!" Liu Menghen, a rough guy, didn't feel embarrassed at all and actually encouraged Jiang Yichen.
"That's right, that's right. We'll see you later. When we get together again, we'll get drunk and then we'll stop!" Murong Jing immediately added.
Jiang Yichen was getting on the horse, and Murong Jing's words "you can rest after getting drunk" almost made him fall off the horse, which also made Murong Jing and Liu Menghen burst into laughter.
They said goodbye to the two of them and when they were about to leave, they were stopped by Murong Jing again.
"Hey! Brother Jiang, go this way." Murong Jing seemed to have made a very important decision after being entangled in his heart for a long time, and pointed to Jiang Yichen in the completely opposite direction to Juyuan.
"This way? Shouldn't Juyuan go that way?" Jiang Yichen looked confused.
"Juyuan is the right way to go, but this time you listen to me. To go this way, go to the Peach Valley Forest first. If you can find a way up the mountain in the forest, then go up the mountain. If you can't find it, you can go there."
Just go back and rush to Juyuan, it won't take you more than a few days." Murong Jing advised earnestly.
"But my destination is Juyuan, and it's not easy to get to the Peach Valley Forest. Why does Murong need my younger brother's service? But it doesn't matter." Jiang Yichen did not doubt Murong Jing's presence, so he asked seriously.
"Ahem, little brother, there are rumors that if you can find the way up the mountain in the peach valley secluded forest, you will have a great opportunity. Brother Murong also has good intentions, thinking that he is a good person, and maybe he can have a good relationship there.
What you have gained." Knowing Murong Jing's intentions, but fearing that he would reveal too much that he should not say, Liu Menghen hurried to the rescue.
"That's so. I still have plenty of time to go to Juyuan, so I'll take a chance on this opportunity now. Thank you two brothers." Jiang Yichen thought for a moment, and the two of them had no ill intentions towards him, so they chose to believe and accept it.
Thanks to their kindness, the current progress has been quite smooth anyway, and we still have plenty of time to go together.
Immediately, he bid farewell to the two of them again, reined in his horse and set off in the direction of the Peach Valley Forest.
Looking at Jiang Yichen's leaving figure, Liu Menghen spoke first.
"Did you know that if he can't find the way up the mountain, he will get lost in the forest, and he will probably miss the time limit to go to the Juyuan Garden?"
"I know, but if he just goes to the old man like this, I'm afraid he will end up going back home. How can he pass the Juyuan trial easily?"
"So you're just going to be a doctor?"
"It's also a matter of luck, so what do you think?"
"I'm more pessimistic. Even if he finds the way up the mountain, he may not be able to discover the mystery in front of the cliff. He may just rush towards Biluo Lake."
"Opportunities in the world are those that are destined to get them. Doesn't his jade pendant happen to have the word 'Yuan' on it?"
"Haha, what a strong word."
"Then tell me why you helped him too?"
"Hey. Isn't this because of you? I'm afraid that you will speak unscrupulously and flash your tongue. After all, I am also there, and I don't want to suffer with you! Of course, I also want to see the final result. Maybe I am really stupid.
What a fool."
"Ha, thank you so much."
"No need to be polite to me."
"Hey, you bastard, you've changed your skin!"
…
The Peach Valley is a secluded forest with winding paths leading to secluded areas. Since Jiang Yichen and Murong said goodbye, most of the day has passed since they arrived at this Peach Valley secluded forest.
In early spring, the peach blossoms are in full bloom, pink is everywhere in your eyes, and the fragrance filling the valley is heart-wrenching.
At first, Jiang Yichen could still be intoxicated by "the trees are full of delicate red flowers, and the branches of red flowers are blooming in spring". After realizing that he was trapped in a deep valley and dense forest, he lost his mood and began to look around for the way up the mountain.
It is the way out of the valley.
However, no matter whether he headed in the direction of Haruhi, or walked straight ahead in the direction he determined, or used his sword to draw a direction mark on the ground, it was difficult to find the way out.
He was completely lost in this sea of red flowers.
