Chapter 19: Sumitama Castle


The carriage went another day and reached Moyu Land.
If the Lin family is the master of Kunlun Mountain, then Mo Yu is the territory of the Xie family.
After walking for a few days on the mountain road, a wide avenue finally appeared, and the desolate surrounding forests receded, and gradually became crowded.
After entering the city, the carriage slowed down. Lin Rufei opened the curtain and looked at the shops and walking crowds beside the road.
Moyucheng has a lush business and many businessmen in the past. It is the westernmost commercial town on the Yaoguang mainland. Lin Rufei saw a lot of strange things on the street that had never been seen before, and the two maids also watched intently, especially the younger Yu Rui, who had started to swallow saliva.
Xie Fu was located at the middle of the entire street. At the entrance, two tall and tall stone lions sat at the entrance. The floating flowers went to call the door. I headed over and looked at myself.
"Yeah, how did the stone move?" Yu Rui exclaimed.
Lin Rufei observed for a moment and laughed: "This should not be a stone, but a stone beast."
"Stone beast?" Yu Rui is unknown.
"Well, the beast of the town house." Lin Rufei said, "I usually look like a stone, but can resist some demons."
The two were talking, Xie Zhai's door opened, and the floating flower explained the intention, but the gatekeeper was hesitant, and looked at the three of them.
Of these three, Lin Rufei is obviously the most prominent one. He was dull, wearing a spring suit with a pattern of gold silk clouds on a white background, a bi-color jade pull on his right thumb, and a sachet with no pattern on his waist. He looked handsome but pale, as if his body Not so good, but the most striking thing on this face is the darker eyes that are lighter than ordinary people. When the gatekeeper sees these eyes, he seems to think of something, and immediately said, "Is it Lin Si? Boy? "
"Exactly." Lin Rufei said.
"Please, please--" The gatekeeper busyly said, and instructed another person to help Floo to bring the carriage in.
It turned out that after Lin Rufei and Xie's family met on the mountain road that day, someone came back to hear the news. A VIP is coming, and the Xie family is ready for reception.
But just after Lin Rufei entered the Xiefu House, he noticed that the atmosphere inside the house was something wrong. There are a few people in Xiefu who can't see a few people. Even if someone walks by, they look embarrassed. When they see Lin Rufei's strangers, they look as if they have seen a ghost.
The gatekeeper took the three of them, Lin Rufei, to the room and said that the owner Xie went out to do something at this time, and then returned at night to let them rest for a while and then come to invite them.
Lin Rufei thanked him, hesitated for a moment, and asked Xie Sangong to be at home.
When the gatekeeper heard Lin Rufei's inquiries, his expression frowned, and he sighed, "Yes, it is, but ..."
Lin Rufei said: "Just what?"
The goalkeeper said: "Just being punished at the shrine."
Lin Rufei said: "Punished? What did he do wrong?"
The gatekeeper smiled bitterly: "Sorry, son Lin, this is not something our subordinates can say. If you want to ask, just ask the master, or wait a few days, and the third son should come out. . "
Lin Rufei didn't have much trouble for him, let him go.
"I always think Xie Fu is weird." After packing his luggage, Fu Hua and Yu Rui also came to Lin Rufei's room. The two maids obviously also felt the atmosphere in the house was weird and muttered, "It's strange."
"It's not right." Lin Rufei was sitting on a chair with a cup of hot tea in his hand. He took the tea cup and sipped, and whispered, "The granddaughter Xie's sudden death, the whole Xiefu didn't show funeral , Not even a white lantern. "
If he remembered correctly, Xie Kongcheng was one of the juniors most valued by the Xie family. After his sudden death, he was buried in such a hurry that he could not see a trace in Xiefu.
"Let's wait for the night." A few days later, Lin Rufei was tired out, and he said, "Rest first, wait for the invitation to be handed over to the owner Xie before discussing other things."
The floating flower Yu Rui said well, and retreated gracefully.
Lin Rufei ate some food casually, then flipped up the books placed in the house, and looked up.
There was a breeze blowing outside the window, and the man suddenly appeared beside Lin Rufei as usual, and said, "It's been hundreds of years. Why is Xie's family still the same?"
Lin Rufei was almost used to his ghostly appearance, and looked at the book without lifting it. He said casually: "Old look? Seniors came to Xie's home."
"I haven't been here." Gu Xuan leaned against the window lazily, gazing at the scene of Xiao Se in the courtyard, "but I have heard one or two."
Lin Rufei said, "The senior knows what happened to Xie's family?"
Gu Xuandu said, "I can guess some."
Lin Rufei blinked, and then she looked up curiously: "Can you say it conveniently?"
Gu Xuan all smiled and smiled: "It's okay ... just ..."
Lin Rufei said: "Just what?"
"It's just that these things are ridiculous, and I feel dirty ears after listening." Gu Xuandu said.
Lin Rufei laughed: "Anyway, I can't see how clean my ears are."
Gu Xuandu stood up, walked to Lin Rufei's side in a few steps, bent down and approached Lin Rufei's cheek, and whispered, "I see, aren't you clean?"
The breath spit out on Lin Rufei's auricle, which caused some itchiness. Lin Rufei's conditional reflection wanted to avoid it, but Gu Xuandu had straightened his body. He said: "Each one can be passed down for hundreds of years. There are always some methods of your own in your family. Your Lin family is the unparalleled sword technique and sword-making technique. They thank the family and have their own way. "
"What method?" Lin Rufei asked.
"Do you know how the King of Kings was made?" Gu Xuandu asked.
Lin Rufei instantly understood Gu Xuandu's meaning, and it was a bit weird: "This method is too damaging to heaven, right?"
"What is Heavenly Harmony?" Gu Xuandu said, "For some people, it is Heavenly Harmony for the continuation of the family." He has a lazy tone. Some habits are better. "
Lin Rufei is silent. He has also seen some in the book, but it is only a text description. How can there be a real shock, not to mention what happened to his young playmate.
He flipped through a few pages of the book and felt that the room was a little upset, so he picked up his cloak, and after leaving it, he left the yard and wanted to go around Moyu Street.
When the gatekeeper saw him going out, he eagerly opened the door for him, and asked if he needed someone to accompany him. Lin Rufei rejected his kindness, saying that he just wanted to walk alone.
Gu Xuandu followed Lin Rufei, but no one could see it except Lin Rufei.
Moyu's street is flat and wide, but it has a different scene from Kunlun. Lin Rufei walked on the street and soon found some interesting things. What are the villain pictures drawn on the slate with sugar water? The crispy dough pieces fried in the oil pan looked like some children's favorite things, but Lin Rufei's eyes were bright and some could not move.
The hawkers were very smart. When they saw an expensive son stopping at the door of their stall, they sang loudly, and the enthusiastic hawker greeted Lin Rufei first to taste it.
Lin Rufei didn't hold back the temptation, took out a few pieces of silver money from the purse of his cuff, bought a few odds and baubles, went to the stall selling sugar paintings, and let the hawker paint a peach.
"Hey, here you are." Lin Rufei took the peach branch of sugar painting, found a place where no one was, and handed it to Gu Xuandu beside him, "Can you hold it?" He didn't know that Gu Xuan could No touch in kind.
Gu Xuan didn't say anything, reached out and took it over, crunched a few chews, and swallowed it, because he ate too fast, and dark sugar residue left some marks on his lips. Lin Rufei He raised his hand and nodded at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Here ..."
Gu Xuan all looked up at him.
"Here." Lin Rufei continued, "Yes ..."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Xuandu's face came together, and his cold lips swept across the corner of his mouth, like a feather that scared Lin Rufei, and he could not help but step back. A pale face flushed: "You-what-"
Gu Xuandu is innocent: "What else do you mean?"
Lin Rufei helplessly: "I mean there is sugar residue in the corner of your mouth-"
Gu Xuandu gave a bang, licked his tongue and licked the corner of his mouth. He was extremely beautiful. He made this move, but he took a little color, and Lin Rufei could not help but look away, even just now What happened was forgotten to investigate, and therefore overlooked Gu Xuandu's gaze.
Lin Rufei has been alive for more than 20 years. In addition to his relatives, he has two maids who are floating flowers and jasmines, but he never gave them any other thoughts, which can be said to be blank.
At this time, Gu Xuan was so teased that he felt a little embarrassed and gave birth to some embarrassment. He didn't know whether Gu Xuan was unintentional or deliberately teased himself.
Gu Xuandu's attitude was exactly the same as before, pointing at Long Xusu on the hawker stall to say this was delicious, remember to buy some back.
Lin Rufei bought two more boxes. When the two finished walking the street, Lin Rufei's hands were full of snacks and odd-shaped gadgets. Not only can't you win, you can buy a lot of things.
It was getting late, and Lin Rufei slowly wobbled back to Xiefu. The floating flowers and Yu Rui saw Lin Rufei returning with a full load, and they were all surprised, and hurried forward to take the things in his hand and said When the son goes out, why not call them.
"I just want to go around alone," Lin Rufei said, "you don't have to be so nervous."
"Xie's family came here just now and said that Master Xie's family had already prepared the banquet. If the son returns, he can go directly." Fuhua said, "Will the son go now?"
Lin Rufei said, "Go."
This will happen sooner or later.
From then to dusk, the entire Xiefu House was shrouded in the evening yellow sun. Except for the servant who led Lin Rufei to the main hall, the huge Xiefu did not see a figure, and it was silent and terrible.
Above the eaves, stood a few black birds, which looked like crows and did not sing, so staring silently at Xiefu as if waiting for something.
On the way, Lin Rufei casually asked the servant a few words, and the servant lowered his eyes and answered quietly. But any question about Xie Zhiyue could not get the answer in his mouth. Even after hearing the name of Xie Zhiyue, there was even a little tinge in his face, as if the name of Xie Zhiyue was Ominous.
"If there is anything you want to know, please ask the master of the family," said the servant, "there are some things that our subordinates can't put a beak on."
Lin Rufei said first.
Xie Fu is very large. Walking in it seems to be entering an endless maze. After walking for a while, I did not reach the destination, and even passed through a beautiful garden.
The spring garden should be the most beautiful, but unfortunately the garden of Xie's was not taken care of, the lush weeds even covered the plants and trees, and it was deserted, and the trail was almost flooded.
The servant walked on it carefully, reminding Lin Rufei to slip carefully.
"How long is it?" Lin Rufei asked.
"It's fast, it's just ahead," the servant said. "Just a few more steps and you're here."
After he had said this, he took another two turns, and Lin Rufei saw the Xie family owner and a family member sitting quietly waiting in a light.
The author has something to say: Gu Xuandu: So sweet
Lin Rufei: Sugar painting is quite sweet
Gu Xuandu: I say you
Lin Rufei: ………………
