The speed of the spirit boat was much faster than that of Feihe. In less than ten days, they had found the country in the mortal world and Hu Nuan's birthplace.
The address Hu Qing mentioned was very clear, it was the county government office in that small county town.
Today's county government is still the same county government it was a few years ago. Except for the change of people living in the back house, nothing else has changed. Even some of the people on duty are old people.
Hu Nuan is completely unfamiliar with this place.
A group of people made modifications, and it looked like a wealthy family out for fun. The small county town walked from east to west, and from south to north.
Hu Nuan looked unfamiliar everywhere.
Jin Xin: "You don't remember anything? Did we find the wrong one?"
The passers-by around them looked at them secretly, fearful and cowering. In fact, they had a terrifying aura. Maybe they were a high-ranking official paying a private visit?
Lin Yin hit Jin Xin's head with his folding fan: "It's only normal that Hu Nuan doesn't know her. Women here can't go out easily."
Several children went to see it, and sure enough, there were many men and few women on the street. When the women walked, they walked along the roadside, with their heads lowered and bent slightly, and their steps were small.
"I seem to remember that place." Hu Nuan pointed to a street intersection, hesitant and unsure: "My mother and I and many other people were dragged there to kneel, and some people bought us."
Hiss, even Shuanghua felt heartbroken.
Qiao Yu shook his fingers and asked, "Where is the person who bought you?"
Hu Nuan: "Ah, it was in the mountains, I can't remember clearly."
Jin Xin held her hand and angrily said, "Go, go find him, and I will avenge you."
Hu Nuan shook his head: "He is dead."
Everyone thought, "Yes, Hu Nuan escaped, something must have happened to that person."
Apart from this, she has no more memories of this place.
The adults exchanged glances and left the city for the time being.
Lin Yin knew more about the mortal world than they did: "If we say that immortals accept disciples, someone will definitely come, but mortals prefer boys over girls, and they are afraid that many girls like Hu Nuan will be stopped and unable to come. What can you do?
Method?"
Even though he has experience, he doesn’t know what good ideas can those three people do?
Qiao Yu said: "Buy it with money, mortals like gold and silver."
Lin Yin was speechless: "We only want children with spiritual roots. Where can you buy and place the children without spiritual roots?"
At this time, Hu Nuan said: "Put out eggs."
Fat eggs?
What's the meaning?
Hu Nuan: "Distribute eggs and line up. Whoever tests the spiritual roots gives eggs to whom. There will be many people coming."
She has seen the charm of eggs, and the grandparents are very active.
Lin Yin's eyes lit up, he probably had an idea.
Qiao Yu: "I will take Hu Nuan there again in the evening. You guys should prepare."
Three people: You are the captain.
Qiao Yu: I am here just for my apprentice.
Lin Yin: "Together, together." You have come here, and you clearly know that these three are following the one from your house.
In the middle of the night, the entire county government office was covered by an invisible barrier. It looked dark outside, but inside it was like a bright pearl taking off like daylight. The people inside fell into a deep sleep and were unaware of this strange phenomenon.
They came in from the main hall.
"Wow, this is where officials from the mortal world judge cases? Is it equivalent to our law enforcement hall? It's so small."
Of course it is small, the entire county government office is not as big as the main hall of the clan leader.
Jin Xin went to touch the water and fire sticks on the shelf next to him, Xiao Yu went to look at the drum, and Leng Ruo read the big words on the hall: "The mirror hangs high."
Hu Nuan looked at this and that: "Master, what are we doing here?"
Lin Yin kindly reminded: "Women in the back house of the mortal world are not allowed to go to the front hall. There are some places where women are not allowed to go further, and there are some things that women are not allowed to touch."
Xiao Yu whispered: "What's the point?"
Lin Yin: "Let's go back. The back house is where they lived."
Having said that, Hu Nuan still has no memory of walking in the back house.
Xiao Yu: "Did you find the wrong one? Xiao Nuan doesn't know this place at all."
Jin Xin: "It's so small here. You can touch the wall when you turn around."
Shuanghua frowned, there was a bad smell floating in the house, and it was bitter: "Have you ever calculated her fate?"
Qiao Yu: "Her mortal relationship is over, and her relationship with her biological father is no longer karmic."
Shuanghua: "What are you doing here? It's unnecessary."
Qiao Yu: ...I don’t want to talk to you.
Walking around, not missing any yard, finally, in a remote small yard, I heard a warm sound.
Pointing to the tree inside: "I remember this, this is my favorite place." She ran to the tree and said, "I was playing with the ants."
Everyone, look at this yard. It takes less than ten steps to walk from the yard door to the door of the room. It is small, really small. Look at the tree again, a crooked locust tree, not as thick as the waist, and the crown of the tree is over the roof.
Hu Nuan squatted under the tree looking for the ant nest, then looked up at the tree crown: "Ah, is it so small? I remember this tree is very big."
Everyone thinks, you have grown up.
She ran to the wall, squatted down and looked at it: "I remember there was a red brick, but I can't find it."
At that time, the official's house was raided. Later, when new officials came and brought their families, they definitely had to renovate the house. The areas with broken walls were repainted. A few years later, they were repainted again. No bricks could be seen inside.
Qiao Yu swept his consciousness and easily found the red brick among the blue bricks on the wall. He put his hand on it and patted it, and a large piece of wall material fell off.
"Ah, I found it." Hu Nuan was excited. He dug out half of the dark red brick and touched it in the hole: "Ha, it's still there."
What?
The three of them gathered around, and Hu Nuan brushed off the dust with great care, and found three dirty copper plates.
"My mother gave it to me, so I hid it and bought candies to eat." She said the sad words happily: "I hid it here, and no one found it. Then someone suddenly came to arrest us, and I didn't have time to take it. Turns out it's still there.
.”
She smiled at her friends: "I remembered, these are copper coins, I will buy candies for you to eat."
Yes, copper coins. There is no mobile payment in this world. You can only use copper coins to buy candies. Alas, it’s really inconvenient.
Everyone: Oh, I have to hide all the money to buy candy. How pitiful.
Qiao Yu: "Do you remember the people here?"
Hu Nuan was at a loss again, who is he? I don’t remember.
Jin Xin spoke quickly: "Do you still remember your father?"
Lin Yin glared at him fiercely, and Qiao Yu glanced at him, talking too much.
Hu Nuan scratched her head: "I don't remember, I've never seen him." She paused and added: "Before I was taken away, I was here and never went out."
Everyone: "..."
Qiao Yu: For a father like this, you can’t even say that your relationship is shallow, there is none at all.
Of course not. Originally Hu Nuan was destined to die, but Hu Qing passed through and gave birth to her, and she saved her life several times at critical moments. The cause and effect of Hu Nuan was all tied to Hu Qing, and there was no such thing as the official and the concubine.
.
Lin Yin communicated with Qiao Yu: "Let's go, this place has no meaning for her."
So where is Hu Nuan’s heart knot?
The group of people collected the pearl and the barrier and left quietly without anyone noticing. Only the servants living in this small courtyard found that a large piece of the wall had fallen off for no apparent reason the next day, but they didn't take it seriously.
thing.
Hu Nuan happily invited her friends to eat candied haws. Of course, three copper coins were not enough, so Qiao Yu gave her a large piece of gold. Lin Yin stopped her.
