Chapter 213 (1/2)
Su Muge and Quan Ming have changed into the common people's clothes.
Manyun villa is on the hillside. They walk on the mountain road leading to manyun villa. It's very quiet around them.
”I heard that manyun mountain manor is the largest manor in the Jianghu of Chu state. You have made many friends in Xiliang state these years.”
Quan Ming holds the torch and walks in front of her. Hearing Su Muge's words, he turns to reach for her. ”Take my hand. It's too dark to walk.”
Su Muge picked up a half man high stick on the ground. ”No, I haven't been a military doctor before. I've gone through more difficult roads.”
Quan Ming doesn't care. ”It was also a coincidence that I met that friend. At that time, I couldn't find any news from you in Xiliang. I thought, maybe you went to another country and sent someone to inquire secretly. By coincidence, I met that friend.”
After a pause, he added: ”there are many wild animals in the night, which is a natural barrier. There is no need to waste human resources to guard.”
During the conversation, they went to the gate of manyun villa. Under a row of high lanterns, they were five step guards.
As soon as Quan Ming and Su Muge came out of the guard, they watched them warily. ”Who are you from?”
Quan Ming takes the torch and takes out a jade plate. ”We are friends of the manor master of manyun mountain villa. We have keepsakes as evidence.”
Listen to Quan Ming. The guard takes a jade plate from his hand.
”Just a moment.” With that, the guard turned and entered the villa.
Before long, the guard came out.
”The villa master invites two guests in.”
”Thank you.”
A guard led them into manyun villa. Unlike the light outside, the light in manyun villa was quite dark. In addition, tonight's moon was hidden in the cloud, so the visibility was even lower.
”Two distinguished guests, at this time, the villa master and the guest room are ready for you. Please.”
The guard took them into a dark yard. From a distance, Su Muge could see several servant girls busy in the yard. It seems that this place was not often occupied before, otherwise, they would not rush to clean up.
”It's us who are harassing the villa master.”
Manyun villa has prepared two guest rooms. Before entering the room, Quan Ming specially came to Su Muge and whispered: ”after entering the room for a while, don't leave the room before dawn. If you have to go out, come to the next room to find me. I will accompany you.”
”Good.” Su Muge nodded and walked into a room on the right.
”Servant Wanyun is sent by the villa leader to serve the noble guest. If the noble guest wants anything, just tell Wanyun.” The servant girl in the room looks at Su Muge coming in and bows slightly.
”Thank you.”
A moment later, a servant girl came outside with a food box. ”The villa master is afraid that the noble guest didn't eat at night, so he specially asked the maid to deliver the dinner.”
Su Muge looks at the box in her hand and nods. ”It's bothering the villa master.”
The servant girl came into the room with the food box and put the food on.
It looks like it's just made.
”Please take your time.”
After setting up the evening meal, the servant girl withdrew.
Su Muge looks at the food on the table but doesn't move his chopsticks.
She swept around the room quickly. The decoration of the house was simple and the accessories were not expensive. But she always thought your room looked strange.
In two quarters of an hour.
”Dear guest, hot water is ready for you. Do you need a bath?”
After a few days of bumps on the road, it will be very pleasant to take a good hot bath.
”Good.”
Before the servant girl came in, she picked up the chopsticks to stir up the rice in the bowl and put two chopsticks into the bowl.
The two servant girls who were sent to serve her all along were slightly bowed, and they didn't look at Su Muge more.
After the hot water was carried in, the two men cleaned up the dishes and went out.
Su Muge stood up and walked into the clean room. She locked the door and window from the inside, and then she took off her clothes. However, she did not take them off, but put on her middle coat and went into the water.
When he came out of the clean room, it was two quarters of an hour later. When he heard the noise, Wan Yun came in and cleaned up his things and went out.
Su Muge lies on the bed, very tired, but does not sleep.
The candle fire in the room had been extinguished. It was dark inside. She looked at the dark top of the tent and slowly closed her eyes.
”Jianjia green, White Dew for frost, so-called Iraqi ~ ~ ~ on the water side...”
The quiet night sky, a melodious and graceful but full of sad songs accompanied by the low and ethereal sound of Dongxiao.
Su Muge, who had been sleeping very shallow, woke up in a flash, not sure whether the voice was a dream or true.
After a moment of stupor, she sat up from the bed and listened.
”The so-called Yiren, in the water of the Mekong......” The song came again. Su Muge confirmed that it was true.
She walked barefoot to the closed window, and the song became more true.This evening, who has such leisure singing?
Su Muge reached out to push the window open, but just as she moved, the melodious song suddenly stopped and replaced with a sharp scream.
”Ah! ! ”
Su Muge's heart leaped and gooseflesh stood up.
”What do you do, let me go, let me go!”
”Miss, run away, leave me alone. Run away, run away!”
