By decree and pro

Chapter 23

"Canna" is at the end of this Ropon Street. Unlike other shops with tents or walls full of loess embryos, her store is wide and wide, as if it occupies half of the street.

At the entrance of the shop is a large shed for shade and shelter, the surface of which is covered with homemade cloth wrapped with gold thread, the patterns are extremely gorgeous, there are flowers and plants, snow-capped mountains, and the graceful woman with long hair swaying the ground, Yan can't help but look up I took a few glances.

"This is no ordinary homespun cloth." Helian Uro walked beside Yan, and said with a smile, "This is Huo Huanbu."

"Fire what?"

"Burning it is like cleaning it, removing the stains on it, leaving nothing else behind, hence the name Huanbu." Helian Wuluo said.

"Is this true?" Yan heard for the first time that there was cloth that could not be destroyed by fire, and he was immediately curious, and looked up more and more, not paying attention to the threshold stone under his feet.

"Be careful." Helen Uro reached out to help, and Yan almost fell into his arms.

Ilya turned around and saw this scene, and couldn't help wondering: "Why is this Helian Wuluo so friendly with Yan, isn't he just another person who is interested in sex?"

He wants to help the Lord guard against these crazy bees and butterflies, it's strange to say, before knowing Yan, he still thinks that he has a special charm, like a wild fox peeing - very angry.

Therefore, no matter whether it is the emperor who has seen countless people, or the Burhan who has the eyes and the top of the head, he has taken a fancy to him.

But after getting along these days, Ilya found that Yan didn't have the ability to "attract bees and butterflies". He was just an ordinary young man, who loved to laugh, loves to get angry, has a straightforward temper, and was a little impatient when he was in trouble.

Of course, Yan's appearance is nothing to say, black haired eyes, regular facial features, full of the handsome style of a knight from the Central Plains, but in Xiliang, where there are many mixed races, this is really not a fairy-like figure.

But Yan... Ilya couldn't figure it out, Yan just had a way to attract the attention of others, especially when he smiled, the brilliance on the tip of his eyebrows, between his lips and teeth, was like the sunlight melting snow, bright, warm.

People look at him unconsciously, laugh with him, and feel happy from the bottom of their hearts.

Ilya felt that he had been "poisoned" by Yan without knowing it, and his actions became more and more centered on Yan. Of course, he thought that he was doing this for the sake of the emperor.

He adores his majesty and has selfish intentions towards him, and "taking good care of Yan" is an errand that his majesty ordered him to do, no matter how distracted he is, he can't let him down.

Seeing Helian Uro who appeared suddenly and easily gained Yan's trust, Ilya felt a thousand worries in his heart.

Helian Uro is too strange. As a crow spirit warlock, he didn't perform his vocation in the priest tower, but came to the beast camp to be a beast trainer.

However, crow spirit warlocks are afraid of desecrating their own spirit bodies, so they never marry for life, not to mention that male sex is not close to female sex, so Ilya feels that Helian Wuluo is good to Yan, and it has no intention.

While speculating there, Yan raised his head and glanced at Ilya: "What's wrong?"

How can Ilya say, I'm looking to see if Helen Uro has lust for you?He could only grin and said, "Yan, are you ready? The next step will be great."

Yan was still thinking about something powerful, and he took two steps into the Canna's gate, and he knew it in his heart.

Those gorgeous tents outside are nothing, but the houses inside are called grotesque and strange.

In front of him was a misty, wide corridor made of square blocks of ice.Stepping up, the mist flutters under your feet, as if you have stepped into the fairyland of the Moon Palace.

Red or green brocade lanterns are hung under the eaves of the corridor, with vivid pictures of beauties carved on the lampshade, and the wick will rotate automatically.

This is a marquee, and Dayan also has it, but Xiliang's design is more delicate, the patterns on the marquee are all projected on the ice corridor, there are beautiful pictures of beauties dressing in the mirror, beauties smiling sweetly.

It can be said to be gorgeous but not vulgar.

How much money would it take to maintain such a large ice porch?Yan Xin sighed secretly, and couldn't help but think back to the Longevity Day one year, when he went to the ice sculpture garden with his father, father, and brothers, and had a great time that night.

Thinking of the happy days of childhood made Yan feel good, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

"A certain person said he didn't want to come, but now he is the first one." Ilya joked from behind.

"Yan." Helian Wuluo walked two steps faster, followed Yan's side, and asked with a smile, "What did you see, so happy?"

"It's this corridor of ice sculptures," Yan pointed to the colorful corridor illuminated by brocade lanterns, "it reminds me of my family far away in Dayan and the interesting stories of my childhood. I never thought I could find a trace here. The sweetness of the past, I am so happy that I am a little carried away."

"Yan," Helian Wuluo smiled, "this is not made of ice."

"No?" Yan was stunned, "This trace of cool smoke...isn't it ice?"

"This smoke is melted by ice, but this corridor is made of rock sugar." Helian Wuluo reached out and broke off a small flower that looked like ice crystals from the ice corridor, and handed it to Yan, "Come on, open your mouth."

Helian Uro's movements are really done in one go. Yan has been stuffed with delicious snacks by the emperor since he was a child, so he opened his mouth without thinking. Accidentally bumped into that, and gently stroked the vermilion red and soft lips.

Yan licked the rock candy, with the sweet taste permeating his lips and tongue, he looked at Helian Wuluo in surprise and said: "It's really rock candy!"

"Ice sculptures are too expensive, even the 'canna' that is getting more and more money every day can't afford it, but the mist here does come from ice cubes to keep the rock sugar from melting." Helian Wuluo said and winked at Yan I rolled my eyes.

Ilya's eyes were fixed on Helian Uro, he was almost sure that Helian Uro was rubbing the oil of inflammation!

"Oh, which way did these three masters come up?" A woman wearing a long brown gauze dress from Xiliang and a half-yellow, half-red two-color canna flower appeared on the promenade.

Yan knows that canna is a kind of flower. It grows in the desert with loose soil, and its flower branches are as tall as half a person. It can be seen that both flowers and beasts in Xiliang belong to the tall category. .

And the color of canna flowers is either bright red or bright light yellow, this is the first time Yan sees half red and half yellow flowers, as if they were hand-dyed, and can't help feeling strange.

"This is mandarin duck canna, the same plant with different colors, it is a very precious variety." Helian Uro is obviously well-informed and knows everything, and he can see the curiosity in Yan's eyes.

"Brother...you don't come from the priest's tower, do you?" The woman is about thirty years old, with white powder face and red butterfly lips. The makeup is extremely strong, especially her eyebrows and eyes are painted with gold powder With golden feathers one by one, it looks like a canary fairy, exuding a coquettish air.

And she asked Helian Uro in a tone as if she was worried that he would come here to subdue demons, Yan could not help but suppress a smile in his heart.

"Young lady has good eyesight, but I'm not staying in the priest's tower anymore." Helian Uro smiled, "Today, I specially came here with my two little brothers to watch the performance, and I asked the young lady to lead the way."

"What good eyesight, you are wearing a black robe, blind people can't see where you come from." Ilya immediately complained, and stepped forward to stand beside Yan, blocking Helian Uro out.

Yan thought, Helian Uro's black robe was really eye-catching, just now when they were on the snack street, he noticed someone secretly looking at him.

"Brother, look at what you said. I'm not a girl. I've been married a long time ago. Just call me Mrs. Jiao." The woman said that, but she smiled charmingly.

When Yan heard that she had a husband and son-in-law, he was more surprised than seeing the mandarin duck and canna. The people of Xiliang are really tough, and they are all married and still working as procuresses.

Although Yan didn't go to brothels, he didn't know everything about it.

Mrs. Jiao finished winking at Helian Wuluo, then looked Yan and Ilya up and down again, and said in admiration: "Oh, these two little brothers are more handsome than the other. Let's compare."

When Mrs. Jiao said this, her eyeballs were riveted on Yan's body, probably because she recognized him as the honored guest among the three.

"Your words sound like you're belittling us." Ilya was in a bad mood and said sarcastically.

"Look at what you said, how dare I, come here, young masters, I invite you here." Mrs. Jiao walked ahead with her water snake twisted, because of the ice fog, she really couldn't see what was going on under her feet.

After turning two turns on the promenade made of rock sugar, we came to an exceptionally high courtyard with slanting sunlight. The courtyard was supported by dozens of encircling thick stone pillars. Half red and half yellow cannas bloomed here. You can see everywhere, among the verdant and tall green trees and the charming flowers, there is also the sound of running water.

When Yan and Ilya were looking at the green trees and red flowers all over the garden, and found that there were two peacocks strolling leisurely among the flowers, Ilya laughed and said, "Yan, look, it's the flower peacock."

Probably because Ilya's laughter was so loud that Peacock even stared at them.

"Ah...it really looks like it." Looking at the angry eyes, Yan also couldn't help laughing.

"Mrs. Jiao." Helian Uro stood aside, and softly called Mrs. Jiao over.

"What's your order?" Mrs. Jiao was a sensible person, she immediately leaned over and asked in a low voice.

"I don't want to be served by the top card, but I don't want anyone who is good-looking, can speak well, and can stand on the stage, regardless of gender."

"Ah" Mrs. Jiao was taken aback for a moment, then she stared at Helian Wuluo in surprise and said, "You didn't come to make me happy, did you? I don't have such a person in Canna."

Now it was Helian Uro's turn to be stunned.

"Even if there is a handyman here who serves tea and water, wipes tables and stools, he looks upright and ready to serve guests at any time." Mrs. Jiao was quite proud when she said this.

"Here you are." Helian Uro took out a huge banknote, "Today I will reserve the venue."

"What?" Mrs. Jiao's eyes were almost popping out. What happened today? In the morning, Bu Luhan from the Beast Camp took a piece of Wang Qian to attract attention, and now he has another piece. This is someone deliberately tossing Canna?

"Is this money royal money?" Madam Jiao asked.Although the large amount of silver bills rewarded by the monarch is very good, it is troublesome to use, and it cannot be used in many places, such as here, which will be considered as an offense to the monarch.

In order to make the bank note go to the government, it is necessary to verify when and why the emperor rewarded it, and the signature and pledge can be exchanged for the bank note of the same amount.

Therefore, unless it is rewarded by the king, ordinary people really can't afford the "king's money".

It is true that the opportunity to get Wang Qian is extremely rare. It is the first time for Mrs. Jiao to see real Wang Qian after she has been wandering here for so long, which can be regarded as an eye-opener.

"There is no imperial seal on it, so you can use it at ease." Helian Uro handed the bank note to Mrs. Jiao.

"But..." Mrs. Jiao complained while accepting it, "I really don't have any ugly people here...and since you're here, why bother to pick on ugly girls? I've never seen this kind of play in my life. Pass."

"It's enough for me to be with him." Helian Uro raised his eyebrows and pointed at the stranger who was bending over to tease the peacock.

"Oh, hello! Guest officer, you should have said it earlier! But I was scared, and I thought you were here to disrupt the situation." Mrs. Jiao was smiling all over her face. The laughter was probably too loud, and both Yan and Ilya turned their heads. .

"Why, is it full?" Yan asked.

"How come, the three of you are Canna's biggest customers today, please come here." Mrs. Jiao enthusiastically led them through the courtyard and continued to move forward.

As soon as their figures disappeared in the courtyard, two men in gray robes appeared sneakily behind the pillars.

"It's the King of Xiliang." One of them was still young and handsome, but his eyes were full of hostility.

"Last time in the Colosseum, it was difficult to strike with Jinayali, so I can't miss it this time." The other person was much older, and there was a scar across his right eye, which made his otherwise unattractive face It's even uglier, like a sand bandit stalking the Gobi Desert.

"En." The young man nodded, and the two disappeared again.
