Chapter 57: Leaving Xi'an
In the late spring of March, the cold has gone, and the warmth is melting. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although he accidentally saw a farce that had nothing to do with himself the night before, and then he was forced to listen to a bunch of inexplicable words, and he became more curious in his heart, but no matter how he was, he didn't let Liu Shuangli change his original itinerary.
Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Liu Shuangli packed the package, retreated from the guest room, and walked to the city gate.
Although it was a warm spring, the foggy morning was still a little cool. As soon as he walked down the street, Liu Shuangli noticed that something was wrong with the situation.
On the way to the city gate, there are always groups of people gathered together about ten paces, talking something.
Walking to the city gate, Liu Shuangli found that at this time in the past, the city gate that should be unobstructed was full of officers and soldiers at this moment. The common people who wanted to go out of the city early in the morning to do early farm work were all blocked at the city gate, and there was a long queue, and the officers and soldiers who were guarding the city gate one by one were carefully inspected.
Only the people, who have been closely inspected and have no problems, can be released from the city.
What's going on?
Liu Shuang wondered, and walked towards the team step by step.
The crowd gathered on the side of the road was still talking to me and me.
"Hey, have you heard, a master in the governor's office was killed last night. ”
"The master in the governor's ya, he has a conscience!"
"Isn't it, I heard that the neck was cut by a knife such a big hole, hey, the death is terrifying, and the room is full of fucking blood. ”
"It's so scary, which master of the governor is it? ”
"I heard that it is the most resented Master Zheng. ”
"Which Master Zheng has been complained about?"
"You don't even know this Master Zheng. Isn't it the dead fat man who often goes to Liuchun Garden, and he fights with the girls in those fireworks gardens every night. ”
"Liu Chunyuan, could it be that Master Zheng, who is white and chubby, and walks to stun people's eyes?"
"Isn't that him? ”
"That thing, it deserves to die. ”
"Hehe, Ye said it so decently, as if you had never been to Liu Chunyuan. ”
"It's just a novelty for us to go, it's like that dead fat man, it's not a thing inside and out. ”
"Hey, don't talk about this, I heard that Master Zheng was not the only one who was killed yesterday. ”
"Ah, who else?"
"I heard that there is still that, Master Li, who was just invited from Jiangnan by the governor at the end of last year. ”
"Which one is this?"
"I just came to the south at the end of last year, and I haven't seen anyone in person, what do you want us to say?"
"Hey, what a big deal this is, such a killing. ”
"If you want me to say it's supposed to be a vendetta. ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"Don't you all think about it, isn't that dead fat man Master Zheng a southerner? And the new Master Li is also from the south, and the master in the entire governor's office, apart from the two of them, which one else is from the south. And lately, there have been a lot of people in our city who speak with southern accents, aren't they?"
"What about the southern accent, what does it have to do with it?"
"Hey, you don't understand this, think about it, there are so many southerners at once, and the two masters who died are not all southerners?
"What......"
"Don't you understand this? Where is we, in the northwest, there are disasters, and the white plague and drought have never stopped. Think again, South, what kind of place is that? There are good mountains and rivers, and I have never heard of any disasters there, and it is really a paradise-like place. Why did those southerners come from their good place to our disaster land? In addition to chasing people, chasing people to death, what other reasons can there be. Otherwise, how could there be such a check on the city gate. ”
"This ...... It's also a truth...... "Listening to this explanation, most of the people in the circle nodded.
People with southern accents, have there been so many of them here lately?
When Liu Shuangli heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
Think about the inexplicable words she heard in the alley last night, when she watched the fight in the courtyard of the mansion and retreated. Hey, most of the people who speak have southerner accents. Moreover, listening to their resentful words of hatred really seems to be the revenge that these people have guessed.
Could it be that the true image of the matter was really told by these nonsense guesses in the market.
It's not that funny, isn't she's so accurate, so she bumps into everything, right?
Liu Shuangli thought, shook his head self-deprecatingly, and then looked at the sky, the sky was cloudless, and the sun was already high in the eastern sky. Today, it's a good day, and although the wind is still a little cold in the morning, it's not annoying.
Liu Shuangli clasped his hands around his chest, approached the long line, stood at the end of the line, and moved forward step by step with the long line.
From a distance, the officers and men inspecting were really serious and verbose. For everyone who wants to go out of the city, they have to be interrogated for most of the day before they are let go.
Although the investigation was strict, but lo and behold, many people were released out of the city, and the officers and soldiers who wanted to come to guard the gate were only routinely inspected, not really arresting criminals here, Liu Shuangli didn't pay much attention, but just followed the snake team and moved forward little by little.
Suddenly, one of the leading officers and soldiers in front of the inspection pointed to a person at the front of the team: "This thin person is a southerner, take it." ”
Liu Shuangli was stunned for a moment, what kind of truth is this!
Seeing that the person who was pointed out by the leading officers and soldiers was only a little thinner than the others, how could he conclude that he was a southerner? Before he could shout a few words at the man's unjust cry, he was arrested by three or four officers and men without saying anything.
Before the sound of injustice dissipated, the officers and soldiers who were interrogating and questioning were heard shouting: "Southern accent, take it." ”
Four or five more officers and men came forward with guns and escorted away the man who had been designated as having a southern accent. This time, the voice of injustice could not be screamed.
Liu Shuangli was even more stunned, what kind of situation is this? Is she really arresting people from the south? Can she still move forward, can she still get out of the city smoothly?
She is also a thin person, she looks like an authentic southerner, and her mouth is an authentic Jiangsu and Zhejiang accent. Although he lived in the north for a few years, he also ran around the country. But he didn't grow thick, and he never learned to speak the northern language seriously.
How she looks like a southerner, because she is.
Liu Shuangli's mind was so chaotic that she stopped following her feet, not realizing that the team in front of her had moved two steps forward. The people behind her, seeing that she didn't move for a long time, impatiently reached out and pushed her.
Liu Shuangli reacted at this time, hurriedly turned around and smiled apologetically at the person behind him, and didn't dare to speak, so he immediately turned his steps and withdrew from the long snake team.
The person who was swishing behind her glanced at her inexplicably, but when she saw that she had withdrawn from the long line, she stood up for nothing, so she didn't say much, stepped forward a few steps, and followed the team.
Liu Shuangli, who withdrew from the team, hurriedly walked away, and when she was far away from the city gate, she slowed down slightly, and looked around, people came and went, but she sighed for a while, and she didn't know where she should go now.
Far from the city gates, she wandered aimlessly, until noon, when her stomach began to stir, and she still did not know what to do.
I found a snack bar at random and asked for a bowl of noodles to fill my stomach.
The store that received her, listened to her words, and looked at her with deep meaning. Fortunately, the store is also from the real city, so I didn't embarrass her, but I was more careful with her customers.
After eating noodles, Liu Shuangli walked again, but he didn't dare to go to a crowded place. After walking aimlessly for most of the day, I was tired of walking until I was tired, and my body was tired. She shook her head and thought about it, Xi'an is also a big city, there are so many people coming and going from the south to the north, and there are many outsiders living in the city all the time, and there must be a lot of people from the south, and the government can't catch them all. Now that people are not allowed to go out of the city, I think it is just just in case, and it is not necessary to arrest all the people with southern accents. She, who is not afraid of shadows, what are she afraid of?
Thinking of this, Liu Shuangli smiled bitterly, put his mind at ease for the time being, and found an inn in the outer city to rest again.
And so, a few days passed with nothing to do.
The case of the murder of the master who was rumored to be in Xi'an City has an official statement.
Most of the official accounts given are like what Liu Shuangli first heard in the streets and alleys, and the enemies in the south are chasing and killing.
After a few more days, the government handled the case quickly. In addition to tightening the strict inspection of the city gates, the whole city was reported without any wind and waves, and all the prisoners have been arrested.
So far, after more than half a month, the case of the murder of the governor's master has settled on the surface.
The gates of Xi'an were wide open, people flowed out of the city and into the city, and everything returned to normal.
The days flowed like water into April.
Early in the morning, Liu Shuangli made a good salute, retired from the guest room, and walked towards the city gate again.
There was no special checking, and I went out of the city smoothly. Standing outside the city and looking around, Liu Shuangxuan sighed, and chose to go east without thinking about it.
The official road is smooth, and pedestrians are as usual.
Liu Shuangli walked strolling, walking along the official road during the day, and staying at a farmhouse at night, so that he walked all the way for a few days.
Entering from the pass, the surface of the road is the same as a few days ago, but the road is getting narrower, and the cliffs on both sides are continuous, which is very majestic.
There is more than one road ahead, and this mountain road passes through the cliff, although it is a shortcut, but it is also a dangerous road. The pass of the Huashan Mountain Range, a mountain road that crosses the canyon. Ordinary pedestrians, for safety, will rarely choose to walk on this mountain road.
But Liu Shuangli has never been an ordinary person, as the so-called artist is bold. Even if it is clearly told that this road is not an easy road, it is better to take a detour. She inadvertently raised her eyes while listening to the words, and her heart trembled immediately.
What you can see in your eyes, the strange peaks and strange cliffs, majestic and beautiful, are really beautiful.
Such a scene is shocking, even if the road ahead is dangerous, she has to go on a walk.
The mountain is steep, deep and quiet, and after a day and a night, I don't see a passerby again.
There are quite a few poisonous snakes and beasts that suddenly appeared, but fortunately, these problems for ordinary people and dealing with them are just a piece of cake for Liu Shuangli, who was born in Yuntianmen, and it is easy to solve.
The more difficult the road becomes, the more disrepair it will be, and it will be almost deserted.
I heard that this mountain road is a plank road opened in the Huashan Mountain Range in order to attack the city more than ten years ago. It was also repaired because of the war, and it was famine after the war.
It's a pity that this side of the beautiful scenery was unintentional to see during the war, and no one came after the war.
On this day, Liu Shuangli sighed in his heart while admiring the scenery of all things. He was wandering to himself, but suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him.
Why, so soon, she met someone with the same mind as her, who came to enjoy the beautiful scenery in this dangerous situation?
It's just the sound of horses' hooves, it doesn't sound right. The sound of the wooden wheels could not have come from a single horse, but was obviously pulling a carriage.
No, who jokes like this, and dares to drive on the road without asking. In this valley, it is difficult to even walk, and some people actually come by car! )
