Chapter 1 Changlin Cliff

If you want to ask questions, you have to go upstairs to the observation platform, and if you want to pick clouds, you have to climb the cliff of Changlin.This is a saying that is widely circulated in Daliang.However, although the Louguantai in this sentence is indeed a very prestigious high platform, the Changlin Cliff is not really a real cliff.To put it bluntly, Changlin Cliff, which people say can be used to pick clouds as soon as it is climbed, was originally just a steep slope extending sideways on a high mountain in Cuizhou. After countless repairs and constructions by ancestors, it became the current shape surrounded by mountains on three sides and with a front There are deep canals and thousands of trees.

There is a Baiqi Villa on the cliff of Changlin. I heard that it was the leader of the martial arts community in the south of the Yangtze River at that time. Many hibiscus flowers were planted in the village, which is now a lush green forest, but no matter how you look at it, it feels a bit Xiao Ran.

Yin Luo lay lazily beside the south window of the high pavilion, leaning on his chin in trance. The embroidered gold threads on the red brocade skirt seemed to move criss-crossed with life under the light, but the eyes of the girl in the red skirt were still.The disciples coming and going in the villa and the convoy of escorts wandering through the hibiscus forest and out of the villa gate were reflected in her mirror-clear pupils, looking extremely distant.

As one of the owners of Baiqi Villa, she could no longer adapt to such a boring and stable life.

A sharp-eyed disciple of His Excellency Gao raised his head and saw her lying at the window. He lowered his head for a moment and did not dare to look more. He only looked secretly for fear of being discovered by her.It's not because Yin Luo looks terrible, on the contrary, she is extremely beautiful, just like the golden heart and red lotus in the summer lotus pond, noble and beautiful.However, with such a beautiful appearance, her deeds in the martial arts world are even more reversed.

Let’s take what happened not long ago. On that day, a traveler who had been practicing swordsmanship in Shanxi for five years came to Baiqi Villa to inquire about swordsmanship. He was stopped by her as soon as he stepped into the door of the villa. One of the disciples present dictated, She jumped off the hibiscus pavilion and landed gracefully, holding three golden lotus needles between her fingertips. She looked at the swordsman expressionlessly and said in a flat tone: "Stay here to eat, get out of the fight."

There are rumors in the world that most people who practice swordsmanship are arrogant. This is true. When the Shanxi swordsman saw that she was so lazy and did not take him seriously, he drew his sword in an instant, but it was a pity that before he could reach Yin Luo's slender and white body with the sword. On the neck, the half-rusty sword suddenly fell to the ground. The disciples present widened their eyes and saw only three golden needles on the swordsman's arm holding the sword, but none of them saw Yin Luo take action. She stood quietly from beginning to end. He stood with an expressionless face.

This matter became an inevitable topic of discussion after dinner at Baiqi Villa in those days. Some disciples said that Yin Luo was not at all. She was actually 38 and she lied about her age in order to appear young.Some people also say that she has been learning acupuncture since she was born, and it took her 18 years to become so good at it.No matter what they say, at least no one has ever questioned Yin Luo's martial arts.Maybe some people have questioned it but dare not express it. After all, everyone can see that she has a very bad temper. Her biggest hobby on weekdays is to laugh at others, or to expel the troublemakers who come to Baiqi Villa. She beat herself up and ran out of the village. She stood there and said goodbye with a smile...

Nowadays, many masters of the older generation of martial arts have fallen, and it is the time when the world is changing.Many sects are thinking about how to stand out in the new round of martial arts.I have to say that competition is a good way to know the strength of the opponent and yourself.Therefore, most Jianghu sects welcome challengers who come to their door.Baiqi Villa is an exception, or in other words, Yin Luo is an exception.

Although she has a bad temper, she never takes the initiative to ask for a fight. In fact, it can be seen that she is quite tired of fighting.

It is said that the rivers and lakes are full of bloodshed, and people who are not careful will go down to see their ancestors, but so far Yin Luo has not encountered any crisis or emergency.The martial arts forces in the world are clearly divided. As long as each other's interests are not involved, what's wrong with coexisting peacefully?If you have to fight for the top spot, aren't you afraid of losing your head in the process?

Yin Luo picked up the tea cup and took a sip of Sanshan Jade Leaf, intending to continue to sit by the window and stare blankly.

At this moment, her door was suddenly pushed open, and a young man in white strode across the threshold, muttering loudly: "Sister! Something happened! Something happened! The unicorn wood in the palace was lost. ! It also involves an old event..."

Qilinmu knew that the most precious treasure of the Daliang Palace and the lifeblood of the Ming family was locked in the Jade Tower by Emperor Chongwen.It is rumored that Emperor Chongwen also specially sent 27 top secret guards to guard him. How can he lose this?
Yin Luo twitched the corner of his mouth and turned his head to look at Yu Ruyi, who sat down next to her. She was about to taunt him, but he beat him to it.

Yu Ruyi lowered her voice and said, "I heard that the day before this object was lost, a theater troupe came to the capital and sang directly on the official road of the city guard. They didn't even have a stage, and the people didn't even listen to what they were singing. It was a newly compiled version. At first, people just watched it for fun, and didn’t realize anything was wrong without thinking deeply about it. However, the troupe sang as they entered the city, and even sang in front of the main gate of the palace. Someone who was interested followed the words of the opera, Piecing it together, what they sang was clearly an old case that happened in the palace 13 years ago..."

Yin Luo's brows slowly wrinkled as he spoke. When she heard the last sentence, she subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Yu Ruyi, signaling him to continue speaking faster.

"After receiving the news, Emperor Chongwen quickly sent people to arrest him, but he was a step too late. After singing, the troupe dispersed out of the city and disappeared without any news. I originally thought that this was the provocation and instigation of someone related to the old case. Later, the secret guards of Yulou discovered that the unicorn wood was missing mysteriously. Emperor Chongwen was so angry that he turned the palace upside down but could not find it..." Yu Ruyi looked complicated, "I just went to Jingzhumen to send a message to my shop, and it happened to be The eldest sister is also here, and they collected a lot of information about that year, and one of them is related to the matter you have been investigating. "

"what?"

"Before Prime Minister Yin disappeared 13 years ago, he took Qilinmu out of the palace once. After he returned to the palace, there was no trace of him. Until now." Yu Ruyi recounted the news to her verbatim, and he also It is not certain whether this news is true or false. It has been 13 years since Prime Minister Yin disappeared. Who can guarantee that he disappeared only after returning to the palace?Maybe there was no news from him before he returned to the palace, and it is not certain that the Kirin wood was later found in the palace by accident. There is no proof of things in the past, and any theory is possible until the truth is seen with one's own eyes. It's a lie.

Speaking of which, since that incident 13 years ago, the palace has never been peaceful again, and the entire Shangjing city has been in chaos. The last time Yu Ruyi went to Shangjing cosmetics shop to collect rent, she saw many officers and soldiers patrolling the streets. I don’t know, but I thought there was going to be a war in Daliang.After hearing this, Yin Luo was silent for a moment, lowered his eyes, and did not dwell on Yu Ruyi's words. Instead, he asked slowly: "Are you going to Beijing?" She picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Yu Ruyi. Tea, Yu Ruyi took two blows of the tea leaves floating on the water, and after taking a sip, she didn't forget to praise: "Sister, I am so smart." This confirmed her statement.

Shangjing is the capital of the Daliang Kingdom. Outside the city, there are two moats that protect it from the north to the south. The mountains to the west are soaring into the sky, and the Silver Lake flows into the sea to the east. The terrain is very good. According to Yu Ruyi's words, it is "feng shui for raising dragons."But Yin Luo's emotions towards that place were thin and somewhat complicated.

That place used to be her home, but it was only once. She left that place not long after she could remember. To be precise, there was some hatred in that thin relationship, but not too much.Shangjing had given her everything, and then deprived her of everything 13 years ago. It was Jiangnan who took her in, but Jiangnan was not the only one who took her in. Shangjing never really abandoned her.

Thirteen years ago, the war between the three kings caused chaos in Beijing for more than 13 days. In the end, Emperor Chongwen successfully ascended the throne, but the innocent and stern prime minister Yin Jielin never came out after entering the palace. No one knows whether he is alive or dead and whereabouts. But after that, the Yin family, which had been among the five nobles in Beijing for hundreds of years, also disappeared without a trace.Overnight, there was no one inside the green tiles and red walls. Only the white candles in the mourning hall were burned out, and the empty coffin lay gathering dust.

Before the unicorn wood was lost, Yin Luofei tried her best to investigate, but could not find any useful information. She was about to lose hope.Unexpectedly, God gave her such a good opportunity, and she accidentally opened a hole in the fog. Hidden behind it may be the truth that she couldn't find, as well as the whereabouts of Yin Jielin.

After drinking a cup of tea, Yu Ruyi said, "Sister, when will we set off?"

Yin Luo has a lot of psychological activities. She really had to go this time, but she didn't set off so quickly and unprepared. She also had no clue when she arrived in Beijing. The case 13 years ago involved too many things and she wanted to find out the truth. It is bound to be connected with many forces in Shangjing, but now she has not figured out what to do as the first step.She is not like the young man in front of her, who thinks that as long as she has gold and silver in her hands, she can go anywhere.Thinking of this, she glanced at him and said in a uncertain tone: "Us? What does it have to do with me if you go to protect your Qilin wood? I didn't agree to accompany you."

When Yuru saw her like this, he immediately understood what she was thinking. He did not dissuade her, but muttered mysteriously: "If you don't go, I won't go. If you miss this good opportunity, it will be difficult to enter Beijing with glory."

Yin Luo frowned and looked up at him, not quite understanding his inexplicable "scenery in Beijing".

Yu Ruyi stood up, snapped her fingers, and then said: "Tomorrow, eight Qiongding carriages will set off from Changlin Cliff to transport gold and silver property to Beijing. By then, everyone in the world will think that the loss of the unicorn wood is related to us. Maybe Some people think that the Qilin Wood is in our hands. The eldest sister will order Jingzhumen to create all kinds of news about the Qilin Wood, and then send spies from all over the country to spread the news, and most of the clues in the world will be related to us. You and me If the two of them act as live targets and lure the snake out of its hole, there will be a big show in Beijing."

Yin Luo laughed, frowning slightly, "You have made arrangements a long time ago." The young man's arrangements were considered meticulous, and it was advisable to listen carefully.

Yuru noticed that she looked quite proud. He waved and shrugged, but the next second he made a request: "My dear sister, I have bought the house in Shangjing, the carriage and belongings are ready, and the official checkpoints have been taken care of. , the only thing left is the token to enter Beijing. You know, my status is too special to come forward, so there is Sister Lao'a." After he said that, he turned and left. When he walked to the door, he heard Yin Luo sitting quietly on the window sill behind him. Ask questions.

Her voice was calm, but her words seemed to contain a storm: "What's the name of the house in Shangjing?"

Yu Ruyi stopped and turned around to smile at her, "I don't know when sister asked about it? 50 years ago, this house's surname was Zhang, and later it was Yao."

Yin Luo knew that her eccentric brother was doing Tai Chi, but she was not angry or annoyed, and then asked: "What about now?"

"The surname is Yin. Thirteen years ago, on Magnolia Road, there were blue tiles, red walls, and purple wood hanging plaques. The name Yin was inscribed on it."
