(315), questioning
When the young man heard this, his eyes showed a little horror because of a child's words. He subconsciously looked at the city gate, and there were several guards at the city gate looking this way. At the same time, the sun was gradually rising from the horizon, just in time to rise an inch above the high gate facing the eastern sea, reflecting the dazzling sunshine.
The sunlight, which had no direction or level of strength or strength, surrounded the surface of the earth like a gentle sea, was cut into bunches as it passed through the jagged battlements on the top of the tower. The disembodied light took on a form like a sword, and the trajectory it transmitted seemed to give birth to a sharp edge, which caught the young man's eyes for a moment, causing him to squint and unable to continue looking directly.
His figure also trembled slightly, and after retracting his gaze, he hurriedly bowed his hands to the two girls on the side and said humbly: "Go and surrender now, and ask the girl not to blame." ”
After saying this, before Mo Ye could say anything, he hurriedly walked towards the city gate.
Looking at the back of the young man limping towards the city gate, Mo Ye was stunned.
She couldn't understand for a moment, even if the young man had violated the security laws of the capital, but the speed with which he confessed his guilt was ......
Suddenly, a thought occurred to her: this young man...... As if it had been rehearsed in advance, at this time to reproduce this scene, what is expressed in words and deeds is more skillful and less provocative?
As soon as this idea was concrete, she shook her head again, and then she heard a voice in her ear: "Is my sister dizzy?" Otherwise, sit down and rest for a while. ”
It was still that crisp and slightly childish voice, Mo Ye knew that the little girl was caring about herself, and she felt a faint comfort in her heart.
She glanced sideways at the little girl standing beside her who had shocked the young man who had gone to the city defense department to ask for the guilt in a few words, and felt some wonder in her heart, but she didn't say anything more about the matter.
But the little girl saw something wrong in her silence and the look on her face, and after a moment of thought, she said, "Sister, you are not from Kyoto. Something like this happened today, what Xiaomei said to that person just now was a matter of course in this city. ”
was revealed by the little girl's identity as a person from other counties, Mo Ye was slightly surprised in his heart. She didn't know how confident the little girl was in her judgment, but remembering Wu Shu's advice not long ago, she had secretly prepared and decided to continue to maintain this state of talking to as little as possible, and when Wu Shu came back, she would leave with him immediately.
So she just smiled and nodded at the little girl's words. Acknowledging but no longer being specific.
"But...... There are all kinds of situations in the world, and no matter how well the laws are set, there will always be people who do not obey the laws. The little girl didn't care, and Mo Ye didn't answer much. It seemed a little indifferent, but he just looked down and said with his own eyes.
Then she also looked at the back of the young man who had already walked a little farther, and said: "I was also a bit of a bully just now, but the reason why I did this was because I wanted to prevent him from being able to rush at you, so I had to let my side at least lead the conversation first." We're all kids. In many things, it is easy to fall into the situation of being counted and limited. ”
The meaning of her words was embellished to be euphemistic and vague, but it was nothing more than saying that if she didn't be strong first, she would be easily bullied by people jumping over her head.
Mo Ye didn't think of these worldly things so quickly, but the little girl had already said this meaning to this part, although Mo Ye couldn't imagine whether specific things would really develop in that bad direction. But it is not difficult to understand what the little girl is worried about.
"...... the big one?" Mo Ye said with a hint of confusion on his face. However, although she was confused, she quickly realized that the word should be some kind of local slang in Kyoto. And its true meaning should not be very good.
Secretly breathing a sigh of relief, she hesitated and asked, "That gentleman should also be careless, everyone will be careless, Kyoto is so strict, will it be harsh?" ”
The little girl listened to what Mo Ye said. He quickly shook his head in disagreement, and slowly explained: "Kyoto occupies the sea of sea. It is also the second largest commercial capital in the country, and the emperor is here in person, so it should become the flaunt of the capital of the whole country, and it is a matter of course that the law is strict. ”
After a slight pause, the little girl looked at Mo Ye and said, "Sister, don't you think that the promulgation of laws by the imperial court is actually protecting the people's own interests?" Although this method of regulating human behavior is not very gentle, it is only said that if that person provokes the horse to run into the East City, how many people will be harmed? Your questioning of the city law makes the little sister feel very puzzling! ”
The tone of the little girl's voice unconsciously raised an official tone, which made Mo Ye's vigilance against her a little heavier.
The little girl saw Mo Ye fall silent again, and there was a strange color in her eyes, and when she saw this scene, she realized that there was a problem caused by herself. She quickly slowed down her voice, and said in a slightly lower voice than just now: "I forgot that my sister is not familiar with the situation here, and it is my little sister who is reckless." ”
After a pause, she analyzed as if she were talking to herself: "It's strange to think about it, Dongcheng District has stricter restrictions on horses that can cross the streets, and the law has long been issued, and the people who live in Dongcheng District are already very accustomed to and can consciously abide by this system. The horses that can cross the streets and alleys of Dongcheng are definitely merchandiser horses, and this kind of horse is a perennial laborer, repeatedly walking on the same route, will not have much temper, despite this, unless there are maritime merchants landing, transport goods into the city, Dongcheng is not even a horse-drawn carriage. Judging by the young man's attitude of pleading, he should be familiar with the laws of the city, but why did he come here on horseback? ”
Mo Ye listened to the little girl's questioning and analysis, and was about to think about something in his mind, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice coming.
"Are you alright?"
As soon as she turned her head, she saw Wu Shu striding over from not far away.
Just as she was feeling happy, she saw Wu Shu passing by the young man who was limping to the city gate guards to complain, and Wu Shu's eyes were half-hidden under a strand of dry hair.
The young man could be regarded as having been badly beaten by Wu Shu just now, but when he ran into Wu Shu again, he did not show resentment. Between the staggered glances, Wu Shu's mood seemed to be very bad, and he was in the momentum of falling him again, but he was very respectful and waved his hand at Wu Shu, who looked coldly.
For the other party's reparation modesty, after a chill appeared in his eyes, Wu Shu didn't show any more affection on his face, but just withdrew his gaze staring at the young man, turned his head forward without saying a word, and walked towards Mo Ye.
Mo Ye, who watched this scene silently, couldn't help but sigh in his heart: People who violate the rules of the city, no matter how much they are wronged, will not get a trace of sympathy and comfort. At the head of the capital of the country, while the system is strict, this system is also very popular with the people, and it can also be seen that the people who customize this kind of law are very capable. It is worthy of being advertised as the capital, and the norms of many things are very mature and have few defects.
When Wu Shu came back, she didn't use any identity when she called Mo Ye, but Mo Ye had an idea in her heart, she walked over to Wu Shu, and at the same time called out cordially: "Uncle Wu." ”
Mo Ye secretly thought: Wu Shu was originally a resident of Kyoto, and he had also read some information related to him, and he actually had that identity, so in the matter of fabricating his identity, he should have better experience than himself in dealing with the enthusiastic little girl behind him.
Wu Shu's eyes moved, but fortunately, he would soon understand, and while his eyes fell on Mo Ye, he also swept over the little girl beside her, and immediately had a plan in his heart, and nodded slightly at Mo Ye.
However, just as he was about to speak, he saw Mo Ye, who had just taken a few steps and was still a short distance away from him, suddenly paused. Then she reached out and grabbed the placket of her chest, which was crumpled into a ball, and a painful look appeared on her face. The next moment, her body had slowly softened.
"Mo ......"
After Wu Shu exhaled a word, he quickly subconsciously swallowed the other leaf word. His figure swelled, and he rushed out of the distance with only two steps. But he was still half a step late, and watched Mo Ye fall down a few feet from the tips of his fingers.
At that moment, Wu Shu inexplicably felt a trace of trance in his heart.
Wu Shu ran to Mo Ye and squatted down, helped her sit up, and let her back rest on his shoulder. After calming down after a moment of shock, he thought that Mo Ye had done it on purpose. But then, Wu Shu, who was about to wake her up with the same intention, just shook her shoulder slightly, her body suddenly twitched, and then coughed in a muffled voice, and with her cough, the corners of her mouth were already overflowing with dazzling redness.
The tearing sound mixed with the coughing sound was true, and the blood foam that was splashing from between Mo Ye's lips was true, and Wu Shu, who was watching this drastic change, sank in his heart, and his pupils condensed.
When the little girl who had spoken to Mo Ye just now saw this, a frightened look suddenly appeared on her face, and she couldn't get a word out of her mouth for a while.
A few ordinary people who were close around also saw this scene and slowly gathered around. They watched as the half-grown child on the ground leaning on the shoulder of an ugly young man was coughing up blood, and most of them had a blank look on their faces.
Thinking that she had narrowly escaped the danger of stepping on the horse just now, for some reason, her body suddenly erupted with such a violent injury, and the residents of Kyoto who surrounded her were not indifferent and did not want to help, but did not know how to help, and were even shocked by this dazzling scene.
ps: Mo Tongshou has been miserable recently, presumably she has the urge to beat me to death in her dreams, but I abuse her so much because of the rain and the sun, and the reason why the clouds are open and the sun is dripping, and it is my purpose not to write abuse for the sake of abuse. )
