Tomb Raiders

Meng Lian still had to deal with his colleagues to entertain, so he left in a hurry without saying anything.Chu Yuyang seemed to have something to do, so he got into the carriage and went out with him.

Shen Liaobai went back to the small building where the books were stored. Although Meng Lian didn't find many, the ancient country of Nanyue mentioned in it caught Shen Liaobai's heart. He remembered that Nanyue was located in a wild and remote place. Surrounded by mountains and full of miasma, even a small bug can kill people. This inexplicably reminded him of the murals he saw in Zhangjiao's tomb. He remembered the last painting depicting It is a mountain shrouded in mist.

Shen Liaobai spent most of the night in the building looking through the materials of Nanyue and its king Zhao Tuo. There were five emperors in Nanyue. Study some heresy, seek immortality and cultivate immortality.On the side was the tea and snacks brought by the servants, and while watching, he sipped slowly, unknowingly eating up all the snacks.

The candle flame burst out a small candle flower under the edge of the window, while Shen Liaobai flipped through the book, he reached for the scissors, before he could touch the wick, someone grabbed his wrist.

"You want to cut it without even looking at it? What if you accidentally burn your hand?" Chu Yuyang, with the chill of the night dew on his body, threw the big tail on the side of the couch, and sat down casually beside Shen Liaobai. Said: "What are you looking at?"

Shen Liaobai handed the book to him, and said: "I looked at it, and the territory of Nanyue includes most of Lingnan. When the Qin Dynasty was about to perish, Zhao Tuo, the commander of Nanhai County, annexed Guilin County and Xiang County. Established. Originally, Nanyue was still a vassal state of the Western Han Dynasty. However, after a while, the two countries turned against each other, and Zhao Tuo began to proclaim himself emperor. After that, Minyue, Yelang, Tongshi and other countries all belonged to Nanyue Kingdom, and the influence of Nanyue Kingdom The scope has expanded to the peak. If calculated in this way, the Nanyue Kingdom covered one-sixth of the entire territory when it was at its most prosperous, and it seems that the Nanyue King Zhao Tuo is much more powerful than Zhang Jiao."

Chu Yuyang took the book, but didn't read it. He closed it and put it aside. After hearing these words, he said in a low voice, "I have found Zhao Tuo's king's tomb."

Shen Liaobai was about to fetch another book, he paused when he heard this, and looked over in surprise, "What?"

Chu Yuyang smiled slightly and said, "We'll talk about this matter tomorrow, it's too late now, let's go to bed first."

Shen Liaobai was aroused by his words just now, grabbed his sleeve and said, "If you tell me first, how can I sleep tonight?"

Chu Yuyang didn't speak any more, just pulled him out of the small building, it happened to be the middle of the moon, a bright moon hung in the middle of the sky like a silver plate, and the bright silver light sprinkled a piece of hoarfrost on the bluestone road outside the building, sinking It was only then that Liao Bai realized that it was indeed late at night, and the whole mansion was very quiet, occasionally an autumn insect chirped, but it was very faint.

The two walked quietly to the courtyard where Chu Yuyang lived. There was a glazed wind lantern hanging at the gate of the courtyard. The candle flames came out dimly, casting a layer of warm color on the white frost on the ground.

Entering the courtyard gate, the two stood still at the same time. Shen Liaobai was still thinking about the Nanyue king's tomb, but now he couldn't ask anything for some reason. After a while, Fang heard Chu Yuyang say: "Go to sleep."

Shen Liaobai nodded and said, "Then you should have a good rest."

Standing under the shade of the tree, Chu Yuyang seemed to smile faintly when he heard the words, but Shen Liaobai couldn't see it clearly, so he also smiled lightly, turned around and entered the room.

Chu Yuyang watched him enter the door, the light in the room was on for a moment and then went out suddenly, he stood under the shade of the tree, motionless, until the wings stopped beside him, then he turned slightly sideways, The blue-eyed falcon is standing on a sloping branch, with a piece of paper tied to its anklet.

Chu Yuyang untied the paper, looked at the quiet room opposite, Fang turned and went back to his room, Laifu did not move, combed the feathers lazily on the branch, his blue eyes did not blink It stared at Shen Liaobai's room for a long time, then uttered a soft cry, flapped its wings, and flew into its own aviary in the courtyard.

Because he slept late last night, it was rare for Shen Liaobai to get up late the next day. There were not many servants in the Chu family, and even when he got up late, no one came to knock on the door. They just prepared hot water on the table. Handkerchiefs for guests to take by themselves.

After Shen Liaobai finished washing, he just pushed open the door when he saw a woman dressed in a beard enter the yard, blowing a green bamboo whistle at the door, after the bamboo whistle rang, Laifu appeared in the air and circled twice , flew down, landed on the woman's arm, and rubbed her cheek very intimately.

For more than a month, Shen Liaobai has seen the temper of this falcon, it is arrogant and indifferent, and it is also fierce when pecking at people. He fed the meat several times, but he still couldn't make the falcon stand still on his arm. It was almost pecked, and since then, Shen Liaobai has been keeping a respectful distance from it.

Now he was a little surprised to see a strange woman who was so familiar with Lai Fu, he couldn't help but take a second look, and happened to meet the woman's eyes, he quickly took a step back, made a bow and said: "It's next ..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the woman's chuckle, and the woman said: "Are you Shen Liaobai?"

Shen Liaobai was startled, and before he could react, the woman continued: "I heard my uncle talk about you, and it is said that Dalang loves you very much, but I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't expect him to be willing to let you Living in his yard, my little uncle who can't keep his mouth shut didn't lie for the first time."

Shen Liaobai was confused by what he heard, although he didn't quite understand what this woman's identity was, he understood somewhat in his heart, to be able to enter Chu Yuyang's courtyard without any scruples, and to be so close to Laifu, between words It was also revealed that she was a close relative of the Chu family, presumably this was the elder sister of Chu Yuyang.

Just listening to Chu Qianyang's description, he thought she was a gentle beauty, but he didn't expect to be so straightforward.

Seeing that Shen Liaobai was silent, the woman chuckled and said something to Laifu in a low voice. Laifu let out a long cry, spread his wings and flew up, and then left the yard lowly over the treetops and branches.

The woman smiled and said: "I am Chu Yuyang's eldest sister, Chu Yu. Since you called me uncle yesterday, you can just call me sister. Mr. Shen hasn't had breakfast yet, right? Let's go, I'll take you to have some OK!"

Before Shen Liaobai opened his mouth to refuse, Chu Yu had already walked out, Shen Liaobai had no choice but to shut up and chased after him.

The two of them left the Chu manor all the way, and when they met a few maidservants, they all bowed quietly, saying that she was the lady of Chu, which was exactly as Shen Liaobai guessed earlier, she was indeed the eldest sister that Chu Qianyang valued very much.

After going out, the servant brought two fine horses, Chu Yu took one, and said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, for convenience, let's go there on horseback."

Shen Liaobai got up late, actually he was a little hungry, but Chu Yu said so, he couldn't refuse, so he agreed and got on the horse.

Chu Yu said to the servant who was about to follow: "Young Master Shen is with you, so you don't have to follow, go back first."

Several servants looked at Shen Liaobai who was on the horse, and then retreated respectfully.

Chu Yu lightly got on the horse, raised the rein, and Shen Liaobai moved half a head ahead of him. While controlling the rein, he turned his head and said to him: "This is Chongdefang. The place we are going to is Xuanzhengfang. Although it’s not very far, but you’re hungry too, so it’s faster to ride a horse.”

Shen Liaobai was not very familiar with Chang'an, since he came to Chang'an, he has been staying in the Chu mansion, upon hearing this, he smiled and said: "Everything depends on Miss Chu's arrangement."

Chu Yu laughed, "Why are you calling me Uncle, but you want to call me Mrs. Chu?"

Shen Liaobai was at a loss, "Then..."

Chu Yu said: "Of course I'm calling my sister, it's okay."

Shen Liaobai's face turned slightly red for some reason, he frowned, hesitated for a while and said: "...Sister Chu, how long will it take?" He was not there when Qianyang looked for him.

Chu Yu glanced at him, and said, "It will take about an hour or two, what's the matter, what's the matter, Jun Shen?"

Shen Liaobai hurriedly said: "It's nothing important, sister Chu can just call me by my name, there's no need to be so special."

The two left while talking, as Chu Yu said, the Zhengzhengfang is indeed not too far away, and they arrived in just a moment.

Compared with Chongdefang, this place is more lively, and there are hawkers hawking everywhere. Because the street is narrow and crowded, the two got off their horses and walked in slowly.

There are many winding alleys in Fangshi, Chu Yu seemed to be very familiar with this place, and walked into a relatively spacious alley after turning and turning. Once in, a strong fragrance came over his face, Shen Liao Bai couldn't help sniffling, Chu Yu smiled and said, "This is called Wonton Qu, and the whole alley makes wontons, but one of them makes especially good ones, the daily supply exceeds demand, you must try it out. "

The two walked into a house at the back of the alley, and as soon as they opened the curtain, they saw the scene of many diners chatting and laughing. The doctor was sweating profusely, and when he saw Chu Yu, he greeted them Said: "You two nobles? Has anyone already reserved a seat?"

Chu Yu straightforwardly pointed to the second floor and said, "I've ordered it, Bo Ruyu."

The doctor yelled "Okay!" and bowed in front to lead the two of them up to the second floor.

The second floor is much cleaner than the first floor. At the end of the corridor, there is a curtain of broken flowers on top of it. On the small plaque sprinkled with gold, there are three characters of "Bo Ruyu" written on it, and the doctor opened the curtain for them. Chu Yu went in first, Shen Liaobai Passing around Chu Yu, he saw the coffee table inside at a glance. Chu Yuyang was stroking Lai Fu's back feathers. After the doctor stepped back, he said, "Why are you here so late?"
