In the early morning, with a drizzling rain, the soldiers guarding the city gate yawned and worked together to open the closed gate. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"This damn weather, why did it rain as soon as I was on duty, it's really unlucky. A burly soldier wiped the rain from his face and complained.

"Okay, Xiao Wu, let's say a few words, if I hear it, I'll scold you again. A person next to him persuaded.

"What about me, Brother Wang, looking at your haggard face, did you come home late yesterday and your sister-in-law quarreled with you again?" Xiao Wu looked at his companion beside him and smiled.

"Don't you know your sister-in-law's temper, you can toss something out if you have nothing to do, but it's been so many years, and the old husband and wife have long been used to it. Wang Gui, who was in his forties, smiled indifferently when he heard this.

"Brother Wang, don't say anything else, as far as you can tolerate your sister-in-law's stinky temper, my Xiao Wu is absolutely convinced by you. Xiao Wu said with a smile.

"How about it, Xiao Wu, you have also reached the age of starting a family, do you want me to ask your sister-in-law to introduce you to one? Not to mention anything else, this every day when you go back, there is a person who knows cold and heat, and it is worth it to suffer no matter how much suffering you have." Wang Gui opened his mouth and smiled, his eyes full of happiness.

"Brother Wang, don't make fun of me, okay?" Xiao Wu suddenly looked bitter when he heard this, and said helplessly.

"Hahaha, you, if you don't marry your mother-in-law, you will never know how good your mother-in-law is, and you will understand when you are older. Wang Gui smiled heartily as he looked like a person who had come over.

"I don't think it's good to understand. Xiao Wu smiled slyly.

"Hey, okay, Brother Wang, Xiao Wu, stop talking, I heard movement, I guess someone is coming. A soldier suddenly reminded him.

"It's really fake, who is going to leave the city so early and rush to reincarnation. Xiao Wu glanced into the rain, muttered, and then his face turned grim, and his body stood straight like a javelin.

"Bang la, bla bla, bla bla。。。。。。 ”

After a while, with the sound of metal rubbing against the ground, the figures in the rain gradually appeared, and a team of more than twenty people appeared in the sight of the soldiers at the city gate.

At the head was a middle-aged man who was fully armed and wrapped in pitch-black and shiny armor, and behind him was a group of prisoners with disheveled hair, ragged clothes, and barefoot dragging shackles. With each step the prisoners took, the shackles on their feet dragged on the bluestone slabs with a rattling sound, creating a movement that could be heard clearly even by people a few streets away.

On either side of these prisoners, there were also nine people in the same costume as the middle-aged people, and through the pitch-black armor on their bodies, Xiao Wu, who was guarding the city, had already recognized their identities - the Black Armor Guards.

As the team advanced, Xiao Wu noticed that there was another person at the end of the team, to be exact, it should be a young man who was not yet a weak crown, fifteen or sixteen years old, with a delicate face, long hair tied into a bunch and draped behind his head, dressed in a black power suit, against the misty drizzle, walking unhurriedly.

Somehow, when he saw this young man, Xiao Wu always felt very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, and it was not easy to ask if he wanted to ask, and his face immediately turned red, and he looked constipated.

Finally got through to the black guard's team and went away, Xiao Wu immediately asked Brother Wang opposite with a curious face, "It's really strange, Brother Wang, it's not yet September, why did the black guard send the prisoner to the border again?"

"Who knows, I think it's a backlog of prisoners, we can't control this kind of thing, and we can't manage it, so let's stand guard well. Brother Wang said casually, years of life experience have already developed his habit of being idle, and when he sees the excitement, he just comes forward to take a look, and there will never be any other behavior, not to mention that the scene just now is not even lively.

"But that's not right, what's the matter with the young man at the end of the team, obviously he is not a black guard, nor is he a prisoner, how can he walk with them?" Xiao Wu was not like Wang Gui, who didn't care about the world, his heart was full of curiosity, and he said with a puzzled expression.

"Hehe, Xiao Wu, why haven't you changed your curiosity about everything, anyway, it's none of your business, why do you want to do so much?" Wang Gui looked at Xiao Wu's appearance of scratching his ears and scratching his head, and smiled helplessly.

"But I just can't help it, by the way, Brother Wang, don't you think that the young man who just walked over is very familiar, I always feel as if I have seen him somewhere, but I can't remember where I have seen him all of a sudden. Xiao Wu frowned and thought.

"What's not to think of here, isn't it the little guy we saw on the street three days ago who provoked the Black Tiger Gang, I really didn't expect that he didn't die after offending the Black Tiger Gang. Wang Gui sighed.

"Yes, yes, I remembered, I thought he would be killed by the Black Tiger Gang, but I didn't expect a Crescent Moon Sect to come halfway, but in the end, wasn't he still imprisoned in the prison of the City Lord's Mansion, why did he follow the Black Guard out of the city today, it's really strange. Xiao Wu wondered.

"Xiao Wu, as a brother, I advise you, each family sweeps the snow in front of the door, and rest about the frost on the tiles of others, some things are not something that a small soldier like you and me can discuss, you had better rot your curiosity in your stomach, so that it can last for a long time." Wang Gui looked at Xiao Wu with a meaningful gaze and said earnestly.

"Brother Wang, you... Xiao Wu looked at Brother Wang a little ignorantly, at this moment, he felt that Brother Wang, who was laughing with him on weekdays, suddenly became a little strange.

It's just that where it is unfamiliar, he can't say, he just feels that the sound of rain ringing in his ears at this moment has never been clearer.

Out of Yuehe City, this mixed team has been walking north, at first the surrounding scenery is still full of greenery, but the more you go forward, the fewer and fewer trees, and often walk more than ten miles to see the sparse smoke rise.

At noon, the light rain stopped, and everyone rested in place for half an hour, but they did not light a fire, and ate their own dry food. After that, everyone moved forward again, until the sky was gray and they couldn't see the road clearly, and the middle-aged man in the lead glanced at the team behind him, and said in a deep voice, "Stay in place, Li Li, Wang Gang is responsible for the first half of the night, Zhang Ming, Wang Feng is responsible for the second half of the night, and the rest of the people set up tents first, and then make a fire to cook." ”

"Yes!"

"Captain Xu, do you want me to do something?" Seeing that the people around him were suddenly busy, the young man walked up to the middle-aged man in front of the leader and asked.

"No need, Tie Xuan, just find a place to rest, when the meal is ready, there will be a portion for you. The middle-aged man said lightly and waved his hand, looking a little impatient.

"Got it. Tie Xuan nodded calmly, without the slightest gloom after being rejected, as if he was used to it, and then he found a place to sit down, looking up at the sky, not knowing what to think.

About half an hour later, the meal was ready, and the middle-aged man really asked a black guard to bring food to Tie Xuan, but he didn't break his promise.

However, the black guard who delivered the meal, the look of doubt on his face, Tie Xuan could see it clearly, he knew what the other party was thinking. It's just that there are some things that can't be explained clearly in one or two sentences, and besides, he doesn't want to explain this matter either.

After eating and drinking, Tie Xuan was assigned a small single tent, which was obviously the treatment of an officer, and he went in to sleep directly without the slightest politeness, ignoring the many strange glances that were thrown at him.

However, Tie Xuan, who entered the tent early, did not sleep, although he had been on the road for a day, he was not tired at this time. He took out a delicately crafted sachet from his arms, and looking at it, Tie Xuan's eyes that had been calm suddenly became confused.

"Brother Xuan, this sachet is for you. The girl in front of her shyly took out a delicate sachet from her arms and handed it to him, blushing.

"Hey, scholar, did you make this sachet, the needlework is really exquisite. Tie Xuan took the sachet and watched the golden silk threads of the dragon flying and phoenix dancing on the sachet converge into the word 'incense', and couldn't help but admire.

"If you like it, if you like. Shuxiang lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows, his voice was like a mosquito's chirp, low and inaudible.

Tie Xuan looked at Shuxiang who was shyly looking forward to replying, the corners of his mouth couldn't help showing a trace of curvature, and he smiled slightly, he already knew her intentions. It's just that the next moment, he remembered the blood feud he was carrying, and the smile on his face immediately disappeared and restored his usual calm.

"Okay, I've taken the things, you can get out of here. Tie Xuan said lightly, his eyes looking at the fragrance of books without the slightest emotion.

Shuxiang raised her head suddenly, her eyes were extremely complicated, surprised, disappointed, doubtful, longing, etc., she stared at Tie Xuan tightly, her sharp gaze seemed to want to see through the person in front of her, so as to know why he said this, what it was for.

No one could answer her, because Tie Xuan, the only one who could answer, didn't answer her, and what Shuxiang waited for was only a long silence.

I don't know how long it took, Tie Xuan suddenly clenched the sachet in his hand fiercely, and then rushed out of the tent, it was silent outside, it was pitch black, only the fire that rose not far away gave off a dazzling light in this night, illuminating the earth.

"Who?" Li Li and Wang Gang, who were in charge of the vigil, stood up at the same time and shouted, clenching the spear in their hands, and their eyes swept around vigilantly.

When he saw that it was Tie Xuan who ran out of the tent, his tense expression immediately relaxed, and he sat back by the fire.

At this time, Tie Xuan ignored the two black guards who were keeping vigil, and now he only felt that there was a fire burning in his chest, and if he didn't vent it, this fire seemed to burn him to ashes.

"Sonorous!", the bloodthirsty knife came out of its sheath, and then Tie Xuan began to practice the mad demon knife technique. He didn't know how to calm the sudden flames in his heart, but according to his usual habits, if he had something to worry about, he practiced martial arts and sweated all over his body.

Strange to say, whenever he finished practicing martial arts, his uneasy mood would always calm down, as if he had taken a cool bath in the summer.

Only this time, this sudden restlessness, the inexplicable boredom in my heart, will it be so simple to calm down?
