Volume 2 Heavy Snow in the World Chapter 178 The ashes cannot be revived

The early morning sun falls on the streets of the Imperial City of Tiandu.

The young man in a thin shirt sat down slowly with a bowl of oil tea, and next to the legs of the wooden bench, stood an oil-paper umbrella tied with black cloth strips, the umbrella handle of the oil-paper umbrella, and two narrow cloth belts gently fluttering in the wind.

There was a light rain last night.

The sky is clear and blue.

The nectar-stained spring grass sways its body.

The breeze that blows the curtains of the street shops stirs the hair of the teenager.

Ning Yi enjoyed this feeling very much.

The air is filled with the spring of rejuvenation, as well as freedom.

Last night's Tiandu Imperial City was much less than today.

The spring rain washed away the cold of winter, warming up the entire imperial city, and in Ning Yi's impression, the solid ice on the side of the road that had not yet melted, and the accumulated weeds, were gone the moment they opened the door this morning.

Look brand-new.

For Ning Yi, it's not just these that have been washed away.

He was able to sit in the morning tea shop, which means that the supervision of him by the third division has been canceled, and the faces on the road that have gone from strange to familiar have disappeared into the night of Tiandu again.

In the third division, those who are in charge of supervision, walking in the dark, have a rare opportunity to show their heads.

"Hot buns, freshly baked pancakes, and braised eggs. ”

The girl sat opposite Ning Yi, the heat on the table swayed, and the girl laughed, her eyes bent into crescents.

Ning Yi also smiled.

In the days when he was supervised by the three divisions, he and the girl stayed in the courtyard, the two of them chatted, played chess, drank tea, and copied books.

The Bodhisattva Temple in Xiling is like a snail's shell, although it is not big, but it is warm.

Later, I walked out of Xiling, but I didn't have so much time.

After Ning Yi came to Tiandu, there were constant troubles, and he finally had some time to relax.

Comprehend the sword intent, review your battle in the Red Mountain, and meditate silently.

There have been some subtle changes in his mentality, the golden age of the Great Sui is coming, but Ning Yi's state of mind is very calm, he has seen some scenery, and has also gone through a journey, the previous Ning Yi, reading the book once said, there are three realms of life, look at the mountain is the mountain, see the water is the water, and then to the back, see the mountain is not the mountain, see the water is not water.

Finally, the third realm is to see the mountain or the mountain, and the water or the water.

Ning Yi silently wrote down this sentence, he looked at Shu Mountain, looked at Purple Mountain, looked at the green mountains of Ying Tianfu, and then looked at Red Mountain, and found a truth.

It doesn't matter if the mountain is a mountain or not.

The mountains are there.

Thinking about it, for Xu Zang, it is the same to see which holy mountain, it is nothing more than whether his sword is fast enough, whether he can split the road, whether it is a mountain, whether it is water, those truths in the book, and those famous sentences of the sages are not real enough, and they are not as real as a sword weapon with a sharp edge that is unparalleled in the world.

Ning Yi picked up the fine snow, crossed the umbrella, and rested it on his knees.

He looked at the girl's silly smiling face and couldn't help but laugh too.

The sun fell on Pei Fu's cheeks, and the two strands of hair on the girl's sideburns swept back in the wind, revealing a clean and fair face.

This time, the blessing of the Tosong Yi people, I don't know which great Bodhisattva he asked for, after last night, the three divisions really withdrew the supervisors.

Ning Yi also heard about the cracking of the "Qingshan Mansion" case, and he knew in his heart that the formation mage called "Jian Yi", who had died, was favored by a huge will, so he used it as a scapegoat for this suspicious case.

It's over.

......

......

"It's a pity that Xu Ji shop, that shop seems to have been sold and is no longer open. Ning Yi propped up her elbow with one hand, looked at the girl on the other side of the table with a smile, the girl grabbed a steaming big bun with both hands, blew and blew, took a bite gently, and said vaguely: "The beef in that house is really delicious." ”

"The Intelligence Department is supervising this case, should it be considered a good errand?" Ning Yi twisted the soup spoon with two fingers, shook and stirred the oil tea in the bowl, and said thoughtfully: "I heard that the place where the Intelligence Division walks on weekdays is very dangerous, and this is the case in the four realms, and Tiandu is no exception, the Tiandu Intelligence Division often needs to go out, and I only need to put eyeliner around the streets, after this case is over, they should be far away from the Tiandu Imperial City, and it is possible to go to the north, or the four places." ”

The girl nibbled on half of the meat bun.

"I also thought about it before, after sending you to Tiandu, I will see if I can find a decent errand. Ning Yi smiled and said, "I didn't think that I would embark on the path of cultivation, nor did I expect that I would be in the center of the turmoil, I think it is actually a very honorable thing to be a member of the Third Division." ”

Pei Fu lowered her eyes, and she chewed on this sentence silently.

"It is indeed an honor to be a member of the Three Divisions. ”

Suddenly, a voice came from outside the table.

Ning Yi raised his head and saw a clean smiling face.

I don't know when, the man who had come to Ning Yi's side did not wear the robe of the third division, but in his eyebrows, he could see the wind and frost breath of living in Tiandu for a long time.

"Master Ning, I won't say my name, because you must not have heard of it. ”

The man pulled out the chair and sat down very invisibly, he looked at Ning Yi and smiled softly: "I have been known for a long time, but I regret that I have never met." ”

Ning Yi looked at Gu Qian quietly, this young man, I have to say that having such a face really makes people can't afford to have a nasty emotion.

He smiled and asked, "Now everyone in the three divisions knows about me?"

"Not really. ”

"It's not just the ...... of the three divisions"

"To be precise, everyone in Tiandu knows. Gu Qian took off his gauze hat and gently rested it on the table, he took out a small lunch box from his arms, put it on the table, and slowly pushed it in front of Ning Yi.

"Before the little marquis came to Tiandu, he was already the top of the star list that overtook Mr. Luojia Mountain Ye Hongfuye, and there are few people in the world who don't know about it, after coming to Tiandu, the turmoil in the academy has just passed, how can anyone not know the name of 'Ning Yi'?" Gu Qian said a very beautiful word, but there was no smile on his face.

"Many people in the Third Division are busy with affairs, even if they hear Luo Changsheng's name, I'm afraid they won't be much interested. Ning Yi looked at Gu Qian and said calmly: "You remember me, it must not be because of the star list, nor because of the academy, right?"

Gu Qian was slightly silent.

"Xu Ji Shop's beef, you are friends?"

Ning Yi suddenly thought of the man in charge of supervising himself in the Intelligence Department, after taking over Xu Ji's shop, business was in full swing, time passed quickly, and Ning Yi couldn't see that smiling face now.

Gu Qian was noncommittal, shook his head, and said, "I don't know what Ning Xiaohou is talking about, and I don't know the so-called friends who sell beef. ”

Ning Yi took the lunch box, twisted a slice of beef, and chewed it carefully, it was a familiar taste.

He looked at Gu Qian.

The young man's expression was three points pale, seven points of hidden pain, but his pupils were very calm.

Gu Qian took a deep breath, stared at Ning Yi, and said seriously: "Ning Xiaohou has the ability to reach the sky, and he admires it. ”

Ning Yi was silent for a moment, he looked at Xu Ji's shop in the distance, and asked, "When will the beef seller come back?"

"Not coming back. ”

Gu Qian paused slightly and said, "He's dead." ”

Dead.

The girl was a little stunned.

In the morning tea shop, people came and went, and the sound was noisy, but this table seemed to be quiet suddenly.

Ning Yi let out a breath, he seemed to have guessed what Gu Qian was going to say, and rubbed his eyebrows, many times, he didn't bother to defend himself, but this time it was different.

"I'm sorry......"

Ning Yi looked at Gu Qian: "But I didn't do it." ”

He thought that monitoring his own matter was just a trivial matter, but he never thought that someone would have to pay the price of his life...... It seems that last night's Tiandu was not just a rain.

Ning Yi didn't know that the final case file of the investigation, after being reviewed in the Taiqing Pavilion, would be sent to the palace overnight, and the palace would be removed from the supervision after reading it in the palace.

One night later, two people died there.

The corpse was covered with a white cloth and carried out, and the more than thirty subordinates who followed Shen Ling collapsed after that night, and no one knew what happened, except for Gu Qian, who cleared the case.

Xu Jin is a person with a strict personality, the place where the Taiqing Pavilion treasures the scrolls is very hidden, but the Intelligence Department has a place to avoid all eyes, Shen Ling has been sitting in the position of the head of the Tiandu Intelligence Department for nearly twenty years, but the two of them died quietly in the Taiqing Pavilion.

Gu Qian never thought that this kind of thing would happen.

After Gu Qian arrived, the girl got out of the chair and gave up her seat.

She came to Ning Yi's side and sat for a short while, at this time the bun she was holding in her hand was already cold.

The scene was quiet for a moment.

Gu Qian said softly: "I know you are a good person. ”

Ning Yi shook his head and said, "I've done bad things, but this one has nothing to do with me. ”

The girl's mood was suddenly a little complicated, and she wanted to speak and stopped.

Ning Yi stretched out a hand under the table and gently pressed it on Pei Fu's knee, signaling the girl to be restless.

Ning Yi said quietly: "If you take the things, the two of us will treat each other as if we have never met." Believe it or not. ”

"There's no need, it doesn't matter if I believe it or not, this matter has already been revealed. Gu Qian shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm just curious about what the little marquis looks like, so I'm here to meet today." ”

After saying this, Gu Qian stood up and didn't look back.

He actually lied.

Gu Qian didn't come to see Ning Yi, he just wanted to come and see Xu Jin's shop...... The shop is still there, but the surname Xu is forever gone.

Sometimes, this parting is goodbye.

Gu Qian didn't hold back, so there was a back, he sat opposite Ning Yi, and he looked into Ning Yi's eyes.

He wanted to see what this person who indirectly killed Xu Jin looked like.

Later, he gradually calmed down, and felt more and more that what he was doing was not rational enough.

In the end, he came up with a result.

Ning Yi didn't lie.

......

......

The man in a hurry walked into the alley.

The robe flew and fell, and he put on a new robe, and the skin that had covered his face was torn off and burned.

The firelight in the alley was unseen, illuminating the pale face of a man.

Xu Jin died, and so did Shen Ling.

His former comrades, partners, best brothers, met in this alley, parted.

Agreed, let's drink together......

Word by word, frame by frame, flowing in the bottom of my heart.

I don't know why, Gu Qian had painful emotions in his heart, but he couldn't make him feel sad.

The young man crouched down and watched as the flames slowly burned out.

The fire in his eyes was eventually only a cloud of ashes.

There are also some sparks, which seem to be able to rekindle when the wind blows.

But he stepped on it.

After stepping on it, Gu Qian shook his sleeves and didn't look back.

(Because of the exam during this time, the affairs are complicated, the time is urgent, and I don't want to affect the quality, so there is only one shift every day, 10 o'clock at noon, and I hope to understand.) )
