Chapter 123: Your Words, My Answers
"There will be a period later. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Lin Hong and Zhang Feng said to Jingyang at the same time, then got into the carriage and rode away.
Jingyang stood quietly by the south gate, watching the figure drift away, gradually becoming smaller, and finally annihilated in the sunset and wind and sand.
His face was full of loneliness, and his two best partners had now all parted.
"Maybe that's a good thing." Jingyang sighed. His identity is so special, and keeping a distance from him can indeed save a lot of trouble.
It was a lie to say that he was not sad, but when he turned to look at the bluestone streets in the city, his face was full of solemnity.
There were no people on the streets, and all the shops had their doors and windows closed. This is the order of the city governor today, and a curfew will be imposed at the westward slope. In such a sensitive city, the people in the city can probably guess what is going on, so they are also very cooperative.
Looking at the empty streets and the fallen leaves rolled up by the cool breeze, Jingyang silently waited for someone to come. To his surprise, the first person to appear in the field of vision was not the person from the Supervision Department, but an old woman in a black robe, who seemed to be shrouded in shadows.
The old woman stepped on a pair of boots that were also black, and with each step, the shadows on the ground seemed to be heavier, and as she walked, the light of the entire alleyway dimmed, as if the black robe absorbed all the light.
Wearing a black robe does not mean that he is a secret military supervisor, this is what a man in black said when he faced General Qian Lin. Jingyang also knew that the person who came was not from the Dark Martial Supervisor, but the inevitable symbolism of black still reminded him of the tragedy ten years ago, and his heart couldn't help but hurt slightly.
"The golden magic that my predecessors learned?" Jing Yang looked at the old man who was slowly standing in front of him, half a head shorter than him.
"There are people in Jinmeng who learn martial arts in Zhongzhou, and there are naturally people in Zhongzhou who learn Jinmeng witchcraft." The old woman smiled slightly.
Jingyang greeted him politely: "Junior Jingyang, I have seen my predecessors." ”
"Old body Chen Xueling." The old woman returned the gift.
At this time, a carriage with a roof and frame rendered as red as blood came from the street to the east, and with a long cry from the coachman, the red horse stopped in front of Jingyang with its head flicked. The driver of the car also wore the signature red robe of the Supervision Department, dismounted and bowed respectfully to Jingyang.
The first of the double list is the most noble status, no less than any squire.
Jingyang cupped his fists and saluted him back.
"Sir, please get on board." The servant bowed down and said humbly.
When Jingyang was about to get into the carriage, there seemed to be a glow shining in the west, and he looked forward to a woman in white walking from the corner of the street in the west.
The sky was getting darker, the slanting sun was fading, and the remaining sunlight clinged to the walls and eaves and refused to leave, and as the woman walked, all the sunlight seemed to be frozen by substantial droplets, and condensed on the eaves.
The person who came was Ma Ying.
walked to Jingyang's side, Jingyang took a look, and didn't dare to take a second look, not because it was so beautiful that people were ashamed of themselves, but because it was as cold as Tang Huan, but it was more sharp than Tang Huan, which made people dare not get close.
Chen Xueling looked at the visitor, her eyes locked on the sword wrapped in a white scabbard in her hand, and said slowly: "There is no ice character in the Nine Sword Gate, and the woman thinks that Ma Ying, who has not been accepted as a personal disciple by any sword master, and has studied the "Cold Ice and Snow Technique" by herself. ”
Ma Ying's white clothes fluttered like a fairy, and the old woman's black robe was dark like a ghost. The temperaments of the two themselves are also very different, and the completely different power camps and completely different styles have formed a great impact.
Ma Ying glanced at the old woman and said, "Junior Ma Ying." ”
Even she didn't know who the old woman was, but she didn't ask, because it didn't mean to her to know or not to know her identity.
"I didn't expect the Nine Swords Gate to let you be this escort." The old woman said.
"I didn't expect to be able to meet a wizard when I left the sect." Ma Ying replied.
"Senior brother Jingyang, I've seen senior sister." Jingyang knew that Ma Ying's name, the first in the martial arts test six years ago, and now the twenty-two-year-old Great Yuan Master, is a well-known genius in the world. One person self-taught without a teacher to understand "Cold Ice and Snow Tips", and his good stories have also spread all over Zhongzhou.
"No need to be polite." Ma Ying didn't look at him, and stopped talking nonsense, just sat in the driver's seat, sitting on one side with the driver.
Although the official of the Supervision Department is also a person who has been selected by thousands of people, seeing this scene, several sweats are rolling down his forehead due to nervousness, thinking that he has to walk next to this woman all the way, there is no joy at all, only trembling.
Jingyang got into the carriage, and the old woman was neither a person from the Supervision Department nor a person from the Secret Military Supervisor, and she also entered the carriage, but the official who drove the car did not say anything to stop it, and there was not even the slightest abnormality in this.
"Drive!" Worried in his heart, he didn't dare to slow down the work in his hands, and the wheels slowly rolled after a shout.
Jingyang put down the curtains of his car and asked, "I don't know who Senior Chen is." ”
Chen Xueling sat in the carriage, the dim light and the black robe shrouded made it even more difficult to see her appearance, and she could only hear her hoarse voice: "The old man is the criminal squire-Lord Liu Tangliu." ”
Liu Tang, the squire of the criminal department, Jingyang heard this name from Tang Huan's mouth, and the corresponding name is the cute and moving girl.
It is not difficult to explain why the inspectors of the Supervision Department allowed her to get on the bus without the slightest reaction.
His brow furrowed like a cold knife in an instant.
"Presumably Jing Shaoxia already knows what the old body is going to say." The old woman said.
"My young lady was born delicately, and she was frail and sickly when she was young, so she was always cared for when she was a child, and she didn't see too many things in the outside world, so she was also easily deceived."
Jingyang's originally respectful attitude changed instantly, and he said, "What do you mean?" ”
"It's not that the young man is deceived or what, what the old man said is that Miss herself has no heart, and the way to see the problem is too simple, she can't distinguish between good and evil, and she doesn't understand a lot of things that people of this age should understand."
Jingyang smiled and said, "So what? ”
"Miss was born extremely beautiful, and the moment she was born, she was destined to be the most beautiful woman in the world. Miss asked to come to Jiujianmen to test, Lord Liu agreed, in order to ensure that her beauty would not become her trouble, so the old body gave Miss a disguise, one is to reduce her trouble, and the other is not to let people recognize her identity, but it seems that the old body's disguise is not enough, and Miss still has a lot of trouble. ”
The coachman handed a lantern into the carriage, and the car became bright, and the old woman's face was intertwined with light and shadow, looking particularly terrifying.
She turned her head to look at Jingyang, and continued: "Shaoxia, you are the only one among the test students who has seen Miss's true face, and Miss is now Miss's best friend, so the old man has to say something to Shaoxia." ”
Jingyang loosened his brows and said, "Please speak." ”
"The old body doesn't know how the young man treats the relationship between himself and the young lady, some things about the young lady, the old body is not convenient to talk to the young man, about the young lady's things, if you can, the young man and the young lady had better keep some distance. It's good for everyone. ”
Jingyang suddenly laughed, he looked at this ugly-looking old woman, and said, "Actually, this is a very ridiculous world. ”
Jing Yanghuan shook his head with his hands, and the bumpy carriage made him look a little shaky, but his voice was extremely serious, and said: "A month ago, I was just a small citizen in the market, so the officials of the Supervision Department bullied me at will, if I was not a double leader, but got another ranking, I am afraid that today's dialogue is not a dialogue, and the respect of today's seniors will only be unilateral pressure." ”
The old woman's face changed slightly, and then she also smiled sarcastically, and said, "This world is like this. ”
"But I don't think it should be like this." Jingyang shook his head, "I'm a very strange person, especially for authority, but I'm not a person who is rebellious to the extreme, others don't want me to do anything, I want to do it." I'm a person who is used to wanting whatever I want, for example, I think I want to practice two kendo together, so I said that I want to practice two kendo, and I won't change my mind against my will because of some words from the sword masters. ”
The old woman's face gradually turned cold.
"The matter between Liu Chenyi and me is a matter between us, if I am willing to be friends with her, the world does not allow it, I am still willing, I am not willing to be friends with her, the emperor personally issued an edict, I will still say I am unwilling. No one else can change my mind. Jingyang said unhurriedly.
The old woman didn't expect him to be so difficult to be persuaded, and some things were not approved, even she didn't dare to speak, so she didn't plan to say anything more, after all, even if this young man became a Yuan Sheng, it was impossible to really change anything, and she was just here to make a so-called kind reminder.
"The old body is just thinking about you. You'd better control some of your emotions because, in the end, the result is not good for anyone. The title has changed from "Shaoxia" to "you", and Chen Xueling's attitude is also changing.
Jing Yang was very disdainful of this, "Don't try to threaten me, no one can threaten me." Jingyang said lightly.
How could a man who wanted to overthrow an entire dynasty be afraid of the threat of such a role?
The old woman smiled, thinking about the background that her attendants, who had been with Liu Chenyi for more than seven or eight years, were afraid, and felt how ridiculous this young man who seemed to have a lot of backbone and temper now.
I hope that in the future, you will not regret what you said today.
The carriage stopped, and Chen Xueling was the first to dismount.
"There aren't many things that the old body can say, but it's already very clear."
"I'm pretty much right." In the carriage, Jingyang replied leisurely.
Chen Xueling smiled, tightened the black robe on her body, and quickly melted into the night.
The carriage moved on.
"Where is the car going?" Jingyang sat a little tired and asked.
The official replied respectfully, "It's almost there." ”
