So in the middle of the night, danger was turned into safety.
Yue Guanchao and the others returned to the Liyuan Guild Hall with heavy thoughts. From a distance, they saw the leader of the building standing outside the Guild Hall, pacing back and forth. It seemed that he was really anxious.
He saw Lou Yunxian's carriage entering the alley, and he happily went up to it:
"Yunxian, why did you come back just now? Have you been discovered?"
Yue Guanchao let go of the reins and jumped off the carriage:
"Let's talk back to the courtyard. Some things are inappropriate to say here."
Several people returned to the small courtyard, and Yue Guanchao informed the owner of the building about the ins and outs of what happened today. He was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat after listening to the whole process.
"The Chao family has set up such a big plan. No wonder they tried their best to persuade us to drink at the banquet and delayed our return until sunset. Now that I think about it, it was just to give you enough time to steal it."
Leader Lou's eyes suddenly widened: "Then, their purpose is actually the big tomb."
"This matter of yours won't bring trouble to the troupe, will it?"
Yue Guanchao had just guessed that Lou Wenliang was so anxious. He was not only worried that they would not be able to come back, but more importantly, he was worried that Futang class would be dragged into the water.
The troupe that has been in business for decades really shouldn't be implicated. He looked at the owner of the theater and said, "Don't worry, the court family will ask for help from us and will not embarrass us."
Yue Guanchao looked out the window at the dark sky:
"Regardless of whether it is the Tang family or the Chao family, fortunately, they are only interested in the treasure. As long as they get the treasure in the tomb, they have no intention of taking human lives."
"Now, it depends on whether the Tang family is willing to give up half of their treasure."
When the theater leader learned that his beloved disciple was safe and that the troupe was fine, he was heartbroken. After struggling for half a night, he finally felt sleepy, bid farewell to everyone and went back to rest.
For a time, only Song Yuelou and three others were left in Lou Yunxian's small courtyard.
He pinched his knuckles and whistled, and the sky was dark and green light danced.
As expected, this delicate sparrowhawk was circling outside and reluctantly stopped on the flower stand. When it was clear that there was no danger, it landed on the stone table in the yard.
Yue Guanchao looked at it carefully through the lantern. The sparrow hawk was as white as a crane, with bright eyes and full of spiritual energy. The bamboo tube tied to its feet was naturally used to deliver letters.
Yue Guanchao sat on the stone bench and looked at Song Siyuan:
"This beast is in high spirits at night. Why don't you send me a message first? It's 800 miles away, but it only takes a few hours to fly."
Song Siyuan understood the idea, took out the cocoon white paper, and wrote a sentence in the blank space:
The court and family know everything, and have recently set up a bureau to ask you to enter the urn. I am willing to provide the location of the tomb. The treasures obtained from the underground treasures in the capital need to be divided into two. Is this allowed?
With neat regular script and fine brushwork, Song Siyuan's handwriting is indeed much prettier than her own.
Yue Guanchao admired it, stuffed it into a bamboo tube and tied it back to the eagle's feet.
"Fly!"
"Why don't you leave?"
The sparrowhawk wouldn't move away at all. Even if Yue Guanchao picked up a feather duster and tried to hit it, it could only flutter a few times and had no intention of flying.
"Did we guess wrong? This is not a messenger eagle!"
Yue Guanchao turned behind Bai Ying. He saw Bai Ying staring at the eaves of the courtyard, and curiously walked closer to take a look.
In the cage, a live rabbit was squeaking.
The three of them looked at each other without saying a word.
"This wild rabbit was given by the owner of the guild hall. I heard it is game from deep in the Baishan Mountains. He specially bought it from the market for us to replenish our health!"
Lou Yunxian said so, and Yue Guanchao certainly understood what she meant.
Picking up the knife from the small kitchen, he bled, peeled, hollowed out, washed it neatly and easily, wiped it with star anise, pepper, salt and other substances, and lit the fire to bake it for an hour.
The sparrowhawk looked like a half-grown child, surrounding Yue Guanchao and refusing to leave. It stared at the roasted rabbit, waiting until the burnt aroma hit its ears, it would be considered completely cooked.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, brother Ying, have enough to eat and drink before you can go on the road."
Yue Guanchao took out a bowl of water from the kitchen, tore half of the rabbit into strips of meat, put it on the table and pushed it to the sparrow hawk.
Chirping, chirping, fluttering.
The sparrow hawk ate with gusto, and when it was full and drunk, it spread its wings wide and fluttered into the night sky.
"He is willing to move only after he is full and drunk. How can this beast look so much like a human being?"
"Who?"
Song Siyuan gnawed on the remaining rabbit leg.
"Yue Erpao."
"Hahahahaha, can you say this about him?"
"Just don't let him hear it."
While they were muttering, the window behind them suddenly opened:
"I've heard you. You guys are so unreasonable. You just waited for me to fall asleep and roast the rabbit."
When he went downstairs, Yue Guanhai was nowhere to be seen. He picked up the rabbit leg and started to chew on it, leaving his mouth full of oily flowers.
"Don't tell me, roasted hare is better than cooked hare."
Song Siyuan and Lou Yunxian are both pampered daughters. They have never seen anything delicious and fun. They can praise this hare full of praises, which shows that the roasted rabbit is really delicious.
"That's for sure. My brother's craftsmanship is outstanding in Yingzuiping. When we were children, we often went to the woods to secretly hunt game. We would beat roe deer with sticks and gourds to scoop out fish. The pheasants flew into the rice pot. They were so delicious. I really like to eat roasted meat. Pheasant.”
Yue Guanchao sat on the stone stool and looked at his companions. This feeling of surviving a dangerous life gave him a particularly comfortable and ordinary feeling. He especially wanted to live a peaceful life without thinking about anything.
However, in this world, when people want to be at ease and have peace of mind, most people seek to achieve the top, seek to achieve the bottom, seek to achieve the bottom, and seek to achieve the bottom. This kind of life must not be the norm.
The words were divided into two parts. Yue Song was staying up all night chatting, but the sparrowhawk was not idle either. It soared in the sky as fast as the wind, and landed in front of Jingci Hall after a hard night's flight.
