Chapter 4: The Woman in the Water
"Fatty, go. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Lu Pingchuan shouted at the fat man.
The fat man had already chased the guy into the main house, and at this time he was guarding the door to prevent the people inside from coming out, and when he heard Lu Pingchuan's shout, he threw away the top door stick and ran out.
"South wind, take care. Lu Pingchuan didn't wait for the fat man to go out, so he ran north.
"Run, run. "The fat man ran away and didn't forget to take the dead chicken with him.
Nanfeng threw away the wood knife and turned and ran south.
"Hey, it's the other way around. The fat man shouted from behind.
"Come with me. The south wind shouted.
As soon as the fat man heard this, he turned around and ran south, but when he ran to the small door, the guy from the pharmacy happened to rush out, and the fat man saw that the situation was not good, so he could only turn around and run north.
Nanfeng was powerless to meet him, so he could only shout, "Don't go back." ”
"Where am I going?" the fat man replied.
Nanfeng didn't answer, he didn't know where to go, and the top priority was to find a safe place to hide as soon as possible, so that he could not be caught by the officers and soldiers.
After running a few steps, Nanfeng fell, he deliberately fell down to lead those two guys to chase, the fat man couldn't run fast, if those two guys went to chase him, they would soon be able to hold him down.
The two were hesitating who to chase, and when they saw Nanfeng falling, they came at him.
When the two of them ran closer, the south wind quickly got up, ran wildly to the south, turned west at the entrance of the alley, ran a few steps to the west, and then went south, passed through a north-south alley, and changed direction to run east again.
Seeing that the two men were gone, he changed his madness to a quick walk, and by this time the sky was already dark, and there were sparse pedestrians in the streets, and running wildly would attract the attention of others.
Nanfeng Da Xiao'er grew up in this area, and is very familiar with the surrounding environment, so it is better to secretly consider where to hide while walking quickly.
After thinking about it, he decided to go to Dongcheng, Dongcheng is holding a large-scale Dharma meeting recently, it is safest to hide there, according to ordinary people's thoughts, if he gets into a lawsuit, he will definitely hide in a place where no one is, no one would have thought that he would not only dare to show his face but also dare to go to that kind of crowded occasion.
After deciding where to go, Nanfeng began to pay attention to the houses and shops on both sides of the road, and the tattered single clothes on his body were too conspicuous to be changed, so that others could not see that he was called Hanako.
After walking four or five miles, he couldn't get clothes, and at this time he had already arrived at the north-south avenue at the junction of Dongcheng and Xicheng, and then Dongcheng to the east.
Although Nanfeng grew up in Chang'an City, he is not very familiar with Dongcheng, the reason is very simple, the city is called Huazi has a fixed territory, if you run to other people's territory to beg, you will be beaten by other beggars, to what extent it depends on the mood of the other party, it is okay to be killed, because no one cares about the death of a Huazi.
Unlike the low-rise and dense houses in the West City, the houses in the East City are mostly detached, large and spacious, and the houses are far apart from each other.
Although he didn't come, he had heard that the festival was held in front of the Zhengyang Gate, and the emperor lived in the palace, and outside the palace was the imperial city, and the gate on the south side of the imperial city was the Zhengyang Gate.
At this time, there was already an early sale, unlike the stalls in Xicheng, the breakfast in Dongcheng was made by shops, but this made no difference to Nanfeng, because he couldn't afford to eat it whether it was a stall or a food shop.
However, there was one thing that caught his attention, that is, many of the diners who got up early to eat in the restaurant were armed with weapons, and they looked like people who practiced martial arts, and some Taoist priests wearing various Taoist robes.
He was lucky, he didn't meet his peers halfway, and after a stick of incense, he came to the vicinity of Zhengyangmen.
A big wooden platform was erected in front of Zhengyang Gate, the wooden platform has a zhang high, nearly three zhang wide, and the thing is more than ten zhang long, high and magnificent.
There was a red blanket on the wooden platform, and on the red carpet were several chairs, all of which were covered with red cloths because no one was present. The top of the platform was covered with a large yellow silk tent, presumably for shading.
There are two rows of seats under the stage, arranged from north to south on both sides of the wooden platform, facing east and west, and each row has dozens of seats.
On the east and west sides of these two rows of seats there are a number of square sheds, each the size of two houses, with wooden tables and benches, among other things.
There were soldiers guarding the field, and because it was still early, there were only some laborers in the field who dragged stones to crush the field.
After looking around, the south wind walked in a southeasterly direction, and there were a few willow trees about two miles away from the viewing field, and the leaves had not yet fallen, so you could climb the trees.
When he got closer, he found that these willow trees were growing next to the canal, and there was a moat outside the imperial city, which was the canal where the moat drained, and the canal was more than two zhang wide, and because it had just rained yesterday, the water in the canal was very urgent.
Nanfeng climbed up the largest willow tree, found a tree and sat on it, a weeping willow whose drooping branches provided him with good cover.
It wasn't until this moment that he relaxed, and then he began to worry about Chu Huairou and the others, everyone originally planned to come here today to find a way out, but they didn't want to change halfway, and the original plan was completely disrupted.
Nanfeng casually folded a wicker stick in his mouth, and began to think quietly, it was early in the morning, even if the pharmacy guys reported to the official, the government could not immediately send someone to arrest him, at least he had to wait until the officials went to work, and the city gate was opened at the end of the day, and everyone had enough time to escape before the government arrested people.
Chu Huairou and Changle are likely to leave the city, after all, Changle is a murderer and the main target of the government's arrest. Lu Pingchuan and Big Eyes and Mo are together, and the goal of the three of them is relatively big together, so it is more likely that they will go out of the city.
Chu Huairou and Lu Pingchuan are both people with ideas, he doesn't worry much, what he is most worried about is the fat man, the fat man is more honest, the adaptability is not very good, and he is most likely to be caught.
Seven people have been living together for several years, although they are hungry and full, but there are people as companions, no matter what happens, there are people to discuss, so scattered so that Nanfeng is very sad, sad and inevitably resentful of Changle, if it wasn't for Changle killing someone, everyone was still together at this time.
On the other hand, he was also worried that he had wronged Changle, if the fat doctor really bullied Chu Huairou, then Changle did the right thing, he did what a man should do.
Before breaking up, Lu Pingchuan once asked Chu Huairou if Changle had killed the wrong person, but Chu Huairou did not answer, so there was no answer to the matter.
"Alas. The south wind leaned on the branch and sighed.
Before climbing the tree, he saw a crow's nest in the tree, and now it was closer, and after leaning down, he found that there seemed to be a white thing in the crow's nest above, although he didn't know what it was, but it was certainly not bird feathers.
Suspicious, he climbed up the branches, and when he came to the crow's nest, he tilted his head and looked in, and he saw a pair of blue cloth shoes, and under the shoes was a small gray-white baggage.
Nanfeng reached out and took out the pair of cloth shoes, the size of the shoes was very small, it should be a pair of women's shoes.
Nanfeng put the cloth shoes under his armpits, grabbed the burden again, and untied it, and saw that there was a set of women's clothes neatly stacked inside, with underwear, lining, and a set of cyan coats, with fragrance on the clothes, which were women's clothes.
In addition to clothes, some miscellaneous items and a small money bag in the baggage, and when I opened the mouth of the bag, I saw some copper coins and a few pieces of broken silver.
Seeing the silver money, Nanfeng was overjoyed, and his first reaction was to hurry up and buy clothes.
Just as he was about to get down the tree with his baggage, a woman's voice came from below, "Give me back your clothes." ”
Nanfeng followed the source of the voice and saw the woman who spoke, but what he didn't expect was that this person was not on the ground but in the water......
