It was already dawn when Nanfeng fell asleep. Because he was too preoccupied, his sleep was not stable. Not long after he fell asleep, he vaguely heard the sound of Yuan Anning and the old woman getting up, and then the sound of the two quietly making breakfast, and then... Yuan Anning instructed the old woman to go to the city gate to investigate the situation.
At three o'clock in the morning, the fat man got up to relieve himself, and Nanfeng also got up with him.
Breakfast was ready. After washing, the three of them had breakfast. Before they finished eating, the old woman came back and brought back bad news. There were portraits of Nanfeng on every city gate. The soldiers were strict with the young men who left the city. Plus travel expenses.
Nanfeng frowned suddenly when he heard this. Fortunately, he didn't go to the ruined temple to take shelter last night, otherwise he might have been arrested by now.
"What should we do?" The fat man was very nervous.
"Master Ji, there is no need to panic, I have a solution." Yuan Anning stood up.
Nanfeng guessed what Yuan Anning wanted to do, "Girl, you want to use the acupoint sealing and disguise technique?"
Yuan Anning nodded, "Although the acupoint sealing is painful, it is not unbearable."
"I can't use it right now." Nanfeng shook his head. The acupoint sealing and disguise technique changes a person's appearance by blocking the spiritual energy in the meridians, but there is no spiritual energy running in his meridians now.
Yuan Anning looked confused when he heard this, so Nanfeng briefly informed him about his loss of spiritual energy. As for the reason for losing his spiritual energy, he did not mention it. Frankness does not mean telling the truth, and speaking everything is not candid. It means speaking without restraint. .
Hearing Nanfeng's talk, Yuan Anning's eyebrows furrowed slightly and she was anxiously thinking about other strategies.
"Girl, don't worry, we have our own way to deal with it," Nan Feng stood up and looked at the fat man, "Let's get out of here."
"Wait a minute." Yuan Anning hurriedly stopped him.
"We appreciate the girl's kindness. We have lived in Chang'an for many years and know where to hide." Nanfeng waved to the fat man.
"If the imperial court can't catch you from the city gate, it will definitely hunt you down. No matter how hard you hide, you can't stop eating and drinking." Yuan Anning shook his head repeatedly, "If you go out to look for food and water, your whereabouts may be exposed."
When Yuan Anning said this, the old woman interjected, "Girl, there are still some rice cakes baked yesterday."
Yuan Anning didn't answer. He pondered for a moment and said, "There is a secret room under this house. You can hide in it and wait until the news passes before you make any further calculations."
Nanfeng shook his head and declined, turned around and walked forward.
Seeing Nanfeng leave, Fatty followed him.
Yuan Anning took a few steps quickly to hold Nanfeng in his arms, "If you go out at this time, others will see you. Don't leave. Stay."
Nanfeng didn't answer immediately. He was weighing the pros and cons of staying.
"How about..."
"Girl, the two of you talking outside the door last night may have been heard in the west courtyard," the old woman said.
"What you said is absolutely true," Nan Feng nodded, then turned to Yuan An Ning and said, "I have made up my mind, don't argue."
Seeing Nanfeng's insistence, Yuan Anning sighed helplessly and went out to see him off.
The old woman opened the door and went out, looking around. Nanfeng said goodbye to Yuan Anning from inside the door, "Girl, please take care of yourself. I may have something to ask for in the future, and I will come to bother you."
Yuan Anning nodded in agreement, "I have always lived here and will not go anywhere else. You should be more careful. If you cannot avoid it, you will definitely come back here again."
Nanfeng nodded in agreement, then turned to the old woman outside the door and asked, "Is there only one portrait of me at the city gate?"
After receiving a positive answer, Nanfeng Chong said goodbye to Yuan Anning, then walked out and headed west with the fat man.
"Where are you going?" Fatty asked in a low voice.
"I haven't thought about it yet," Nanfeng said.
The fat man grinned in shock, "Huh? Didn't you know why you came out?"
"I will bear the consequences of what I do myself, and I can no longer implicate others." Nanfeng said sternly. Yuan Anning has a special identity. If his identity is exposed because of him, he will not be able to blame himself and feel guilty.
"Chang'an City is so big, how can they dig the ground from house to house?" The fat man shook his head helplessly.
Nanfeng didn't answer and quickly left the alley.
At the entrance of the alley, Nanfeng stopped, and he was thinking about where to go. He couldn't go back to the ruined temple, nor could he go to the mountains behind the ruined temple, nor could he stay in an inn. Abandoned houses would also be the focus of searches by officers and soldiers. Those What seems like a hidden place is actually not safe.
After thinking about it, Nanfeng stepped towards the north.
"Where are you going?" Fatty followed.
"Buy a carriage." Nanfeng said. There was a livestock market in the north city, and he knew the location.
Although the fat man didn't understand why Nanfeng bought the carriage, he didn't ask any more questions and followed Nanfeng to Beicheng.
Not far away, a large house appeared in front of him. There was a landscape tree inside the house, and two birdcages were hung on the tree.
Nanfeng picked up a stone in his hand when he was walking. When he got to the wall, he threw the stone into the yard.
"If you don't have a dog, go in and steal the two birdcages." Nanfeng instructed the fat man.
Fatty still didn't know the purpose of Nan Feng's move, but he knew that Nan Feng was definitely not a walking bird. His spiritual energy cultivation level was between that of Dong Shen and Gao Xuan. Although it was not high, it was not troublesome to jump over the wall.
After getting the birdcage, they each picked up one, slowed down their pace, and pretended to be leisurely.
With the birdcage as a cover, no one would be suspicious of looking at it when walking on the street. As they got closer to the livestock market, the two released the bird, threw away the birdcage and entered the market.
Before leaving, Lu Pingchuan gave the two of them a lot of silver. Nanfeng bought a carriage and horses from the market and drove south. On the way, he bought some cheap herbs and filled the shed with herbs. He even tied the herbs to the shaft outside the shed. It seems to be full, but in fact the weight is not heavy.
"What on earth do you want to do?" Fatty couldn't help but ask.
"Hide people's eyes and ears." Nanfeng said.
The fat man curled his lips, saying that Nan Feng didn't say anything.
After filling the bags with herbs, Nanfeng bought a lot of food. Most of these foods were Chang'an specialties, with exquisite workmanship and exquisite packaging.
"We are drug dealers from Taiping Town in the south." Nanfeng said to the fat man while driving.
"Then what?" Fatty asked.
"We are very rich and have a big attitude, so it's hard to talk to us," Nanfeng said.
The fat man raised his hand and scratched his head, "What on earth do you want to do?"
Nanfeng didn't answer and drove forward, passing through several streets and arriving at Zuihua Tower at the junction of Dongcheng and Xicheng.
"This is the Flower House, what are you doing here?" the fat man asked again.
"We are pretending to be prostitutes and hiding there. We are drug dealers from Taiping Town. We are very rich, have a big air, and are very difficult to talk to." Nanfeng warned again.
"Is it possible?" The fat man had no confidence. There were people coming and going here, and it was not very hidden.
"Yes." Nanfeng nodded seriously. In fact, his words were to embolden the fat man. It is impossible to be 100% sure about anything, and he can do it with 60% certainty.
While talking, Nanfeng parked the car in front of a flower building. It was already afternoon and the flower building was open to receive customers. A turtle slave who was soliciting customers saw the two of them and waved to them.
"Third brother, let's leave early." Nanfeng said to the fat man.
When he heard that Nan Feng had changed his accent, Fatty immediately understood and changed to a foreign accent, "The business has been done, it's okay to play around."
"Then you go ahead, I'll look at the car outside." Nanfeng said.
When the turtle slave heard that the two of them were interested in looking for flowers and willows, he hurried over to say hello. He said that the carriage could be stored in the backyard, so they could rest assured.
In fact, Nan Feng already knew that there was a backyard here. After hearing what Gui Nu said, he followed the current and drove to the backyard. On the way, Gui Nu opened the curtain of the carriage to take a peek. Nan Feng took the opportunity to get angry and scolded loudly.
The turtle slave was afraid of running away from the guest, so he only cursed in his heart, but said he was accompanying him.
After parking the carriage, Nanfeng casually threw a piece of broken silver to the turtle slave, "Our horse is very expensive. It is finely fed and fed well. The medicinal materials are also taken care of by the uncle. If there is any missing weight, report it to the official to get it for you."
Seeing Nan Feng's generosity, Gui Nu smiled happily, bowed her waist and bent her legs to invite the two of them into the flower house.
We have seen a lot of Nanfeng in the market. It is easy to pretend to be friendly, but it is even easier to pretend to be unfriendly. After entering the door, he acted like a wealthy businessman, talking and walking with a straight face. Naturally, those prostitutes knew that he was wearing a straight face, but they thought he was a wealthy businessman. Pretending to be a good person, not thinking that he did it deliberately to hide his identity.
The fat man is not as handsome as Nanfeng pretends to be, but he remembers Nanfeng's advice: if you have money, you will have a bad temper and you will not be easy to take care of.
This flower house is very large. There are forty or fifty prostitutes, some are real vulgar and vulgar, and some are pretending not to be dirty. They stand in front of you, which is quite dazzling.
Nanfeng did not choose someone immediately, but called the turtle slave and whispered a few words. The turtle slave nodded understandingly and said to the prostitutes, "These two gentlemen are not just people, they are brothers fighting tigers. Who can say hello?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the group of prostitutes frowned and retreated.
Seeing this, the turtle slave hurriedly shouted, "Thank you, uncle, for taking the horse money."
These words were telling the prostitutes that they had a lot of money, so several prostitutes stopped and stayed.
"Thank you for thinking it through." The fat man said in a low voice. Nan Feng was not the only one who had wandered around the market for many years. He was also one, so he naturally knew about the dirty things in the market.
"We can't separate." Nanfeng whispered.
Although the two requests were weird, they were not too weird for these well-informed prostitutes. Nanfeng originally wanted to choose a younger one, who was easier to deceive. The old guy would probably find out that the two were cheating. But after thinking about it, I chose an older one.
When entering the house, Nanfeng deliberately dropped his purse and scattered the silver. The old prostitute helped pick it up and left a piece behind. When Nanfeng found out, he yelled and cursed, and called the turtle slave. He only said that the prostitute had stolen and wanted to Report to the official.
The turtle slave tried to persuade Nan Feng to give up, and replaced him with the younger one he had wanted to choose before.
Such a fuss delayed time, and eating again delayed time, so it was reasonable to stay up until night.
At night, Nanfeng felt worried. He finally managed to stay up until night in a reasonable way. How to stay up until dawn in a reasonable way...
