1275, accompaniment
- Soon, she saw that Wu Shu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and then said, "You stay here first, about half an hour later." I will be back. ”
Mo Ye finally couldn't help but ask, "What exactly are you going to do?" What am I going to do? ”
Wu Shu, who was about to dive away, hesitated for a moment after lowering his eyes slightly, and then he said calmly: "I'm going to steal a book, and you are responsible for copying it." ”
Don't wait for Mo Ye to ask. Why did she need to copy the book he stole When Wu Shu's figure was already far away in the night sky. As soon as they fell, it was not difficult for Mo Ye to see that he had entered the courtyard where he had been contemplating for a long time just now.
In the middle of the night, the third watch was lying on the roof waiting for someone, and this time was not very easy. What's more, the person she is waiting for now seems to be a thief, and he is doing it in a place where there are many dangerous factors. Mo Ye couldn't help but worry, what should she do if Wu Shu was in danger?
She couldn't help him with anything, and in the end she had to rely on him for help. to be able to leave from the two-storey roof.
Mo Ye, who couldn't think of any place where she could help Wu Shu, was a little worried and a little frustrated, and finally she put her thinking direction on the two words he had just replied to her.
Stealing teachers?
If Wu Shu wants to steal the teacher. There is no need to bring yourself with a half-grown child who will not only not help him, but may also drag him down.
And when the words stealing the teacher and copying the book came together, Mo Ye probably understood that Wu Shu brought her here tonight, what the hell was the evil person going to read in pairs. She had some unknown excitement. But as time went on, she accumulated more in her heart. It's worry.
Silently focused on the courtyard that Wu Shu had entered. Mo Ye found that although he was in a high place, it was not difficult to visually detect the height of the courtyard wall of this house, which was not like the standard of ordinary houses. But think about it from another angle, if this place is a private house, it will not make Wu Shu nervous.
Mo Ye's position at this time was not in the direction of the main entrance of the building that was suspected to be the official residence, from the side, she could only feel that the layout of this mansion overlapped, her gaze could only reach the two entrances, and she didn't know how many more entrances there were.
Where is Wu Shu now? She didn't know either. When Wu Shu left, he only left her a piece of information about the direction. She waited and kept looking in that direction. The direction that Wu Shu had been staring at for a long time was also the direction he walked away......
And just when she stared in that direction for a long time, her eyes began to become a little sluggish, Wu Shu's figure suddenly came back from that direction!
Seeing Wu Shu return safely. Mo Ye was slightly happy in his heart. However, Wu Shu didn't say a word after he came back. Only Mo Ye slid down from the roof and entered the small building through a window on the side of the house.
The small building seemed to be a storage room, with a lot of miscellaneous stuff piled up in it. It seems that no one has cleaned up for a long time. People always like to put the idle things that are not used for the time being in a small room that is not often opened, and put them away and forget them, and gradually they are covered with more and more dust, and the short opening and closing of the small window stirs up the dust in the hut.
Squatting on the roof for more than half an hour, he has been breathing in the cool air of the night, and as soon as he entered this room, Mo Ye almost couldn't hold back, and was so excited by the dusty indoor air that he sneezed.
Considering that she came with Wu Shu as a thief tonight, she quickly tried her best to endure this sneeze. After rubbing her itchy nose vigorously, she exhaled softly.
As soon as she breathed a sigh of relief, she saw Wu Shu scan the room and lift a burlap covering a pile of miscellaneous items and cover it on the window panel. The light in the hut, which had only a small window, was even darker, but the next moment, the hut was bright again, and the abnormal light contrast made Mo Ye squint.
Wu Shu 'clicked' and lit up a fire fold, this fire fold is much thicker than the kind of fire fold that can be bought in ordinary grocery stores, it seems that it is also specially made by a certain organization in order to be cheaper than Wu Shu's action, but today Wu Shu used it in the process of stealing books, which is a little unruly. But at this time, the only window of the hut had been covered by a thick dusty linen cloth, and no one would notice that the little dark room, which had not been entered for a long time, was strangely suddenly crowded tonight.
Standing on a wooden shelf with several boards missing, Wu Shu looked at Mo Ye, who blocked his mouth and nose with his sleeves to avoid the churning dust in the house, and said softly: "Copy it." ”
There were no tables and chairs in the small utility room, Wu Shu squatted down, took out a thread-bound book from his arms and put it on the ground, and then added: ""Qianzhao Jing", the great success method of the inner family, cannot be abbreviated. ”
Hearing his explanation, Mo Ye secretly said that she had guessed correctly when she was waiting on the roof just now, and she was extremely happy for a while. However, when she took out the treasured carbon core pen and copied it on the prepared white booklet, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart: Didn't Wu Shu disapprove of her own martial arts? Why are you so proactive in stealing books for yourself now?
When Mo Ye was full of doubts but didn't say a word and just copied the book, Wu Shu's eyes gradually noticed that the pen in Mo Ye's hand was a little strange, as if he was afraid of affecting Mo Ye's thinking, Wu Shu didn't say anything.
Until...... It wasn't until Mo Ye copied the third page that the end of the sharpened pen and the refill outside the wooden pen case had been smoothed, and Mo Ye had to stop, took out a paper cutter from his sleeve, and prepared to sharpen the pen.
At this time, she flickered at the figure on the ground in front of her. She subconsciously raised her eyes, and saw Wu Shu squatting down opposite her.
Wu Shutan came to her eyes, and in the palm of his hand lay three 'branches' that had been cut at both ends...... No, to be exact, it should be the same as the pen she used to write just now, a carbon core pen that can write without dipping in ink, but the three pens handed by Wu Shu are much longer than the ones she owns - the one she used was originally the one left by the master.
"This ......," Mo Ye couldn't help but snort.
Without waiting for Mo Ye to continue, or for her to reach out for the pen, Wu Shu only put the three pens on the floor at Mo Ye's feet, then he stood up and walked aside, and then reminded: "This fire fold represents the time of three points of incense, continue to copy." ”
Mo Ye understood, knowing where he was and what was going on. What does it mean to do this, she is really not suitable for spending time chatting in this situation, or that every moment at this time is exchanged for Wu Shu's personal safety. She didn't ask any more questions, but kept her head down and continued to copy.
Mo Ye's body has some girlish nature that is difficult to completely erase, which is due to nature. However, if you put her in a group of girls, I'm afraid she will become the least girl-like one.
The daughter of an ordinary family has grown up to her age, and the thin needle in her hand has already gone through thousands of steps, but Mo Ye has grown up to this day, and she has always held it in her hand. But it's a pen. It has also gone through thousands of steps. There is also a self-control that is not easy for girls to grasp, but in the face of important things, Mo Ye can grasp it very well.
All of this is due to the subtle influence of the forest cedar in the past few years. It's just that I don't know that such a somewhat alien character will be in her future life. What kind of effect can it play?
The "Qianzhao Sutra" was quickly copied. Mo Ye's first action after putting down his pen was to look at the fire fold placed on the broken wooden shelf. I didn't expect to see it at a glance. Her heart sank, and she thought the fire had burned out, but she soon realized that the light in the hut was still there. Turning his head to glance, he saw that the fire fold had returned to Wu Shu's hands at some point.
In the corner of the hut, Wu Shu, who was standing in front of a pile of miscellaneous items, held the fire fold with one hand that still had half of the left, and pinched a brush with the tip of the pen facing up in the other hand, with a focused expression. Looking at his gaze, it seemed that he was staring at the tip of the pen that was still wrapped in a wisp of spider silk, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Uncle?"
Mo Ye tilted his head and called softly. She didn't understand what Wu Shu had found when he stared at a dusty brush that made him so interested.
Wu Shu didn't look back at her, nor did he not hear her call, he responded quickly, and only said calmly: "After copying, read it again for yourself, don't make a mistake or omission." ”
At this moment, Mo Ye suddenly had an illusion in his heart, and at this moment, Wu Shusha had changed from a midnight thief to a strict master in the academy.
Mo Ye wanted to laugh, but she couldn't laugh after glancing at the fire fold left in Wu Shu's hand, and with a smile, she squatted down again and began to review the "Qianzhao Sutra" that she had just copied.
……
The process of checking was faster than the process of copying, and before the fire in Wu Shu's hand was completely burned out, Mo Ye really completed all the copying work - to be precise, her behavior was tantamount to stealing books, and stealing was not an ordinary book.
Wu Shu took Mo Ye out of the hut, but instead of putting her on the roof as he had done, he took her to the ground. According to Wu Shu's advice when he left, what he meant was that if he didn't come back after returning the book this time, she could go back to Ye's house on her own.
As soon as Wu Shu said this, Mo Ye's heart became more and more worried.
She thought that everything would be over after copying the book, but she didn't expect that it seemed that troublesome things were still to come.
All but two of Kyoto's commercial districts allow shops to stay open late, and all other districts of Kyoto have curfews. If you don't have a certificate of residence in Kyoto, or you don't have the relevant receipts for the all-night merchants that are allowed by the yamen, you can walk down the street in the middle of the night, and you will be in trouble if you run into a patrol party.
Mo Ye didn't want to go back alone, it was best to have Wu Shu lead her away, so that she could go back quickly not to mention, with Wu Shu's some professional experience. He is also very adept at avoiding all the patrolmen he might encounter.
In addition to being jealous of this reason, Mo Ye was also worried about Wu Shu's safety.
Where does such a practice come from? Since he can have such an exercise that Wu Shu will be cautious about, the owner of the "Qianzhao Sutra" is likely to be a martial arts master, if the two sides meet, will Wu Shu be in danger?
……
The process of returning the book by Wu Shu took twice as long as the process of stealing the book, and Mo Ye, who insisted on standing under the eaves against the root of the wall and waiting for him to come back, stood sore, but fortunately, he finally waited for him to come back.
Seeing that Wu Shu did not use his swift-like body, but approached step by step like an ordinary person. Mo Ye let out a long sigh of relief, but at the same time, his heartstrings were slightly confused.
From Wu Shu taking her out of Yefu to steal books, to Wu Shu returning after returning the books, more than two hours have passed unconsciously. By this time the moon had sunk. There is less than an hour left, and the morning sun is about to break through the fog from the clouds of the East China Sea, and the night is at this hour, but it is the darkest time.
As if noticing Mo Ye who was still waiting in place, Wu Shu walked a few steps away from Mo Ye. His steps paused slightly, and then he continued to approach, and said in a very soft voice: "You haven't left yet?" ”
"Didn't you come back here too?" Mo Ye said happily, she had also walked out of the eaves and approached Wu Shu, and at the same time said, "Are you okay?" ”
Wu Shu did not answer. He just stopped and waited for her to approach, and then led her to turn and walk towards the street in the other direction.
Walking on the main street, Mo Ye found that there were already a few shops selling breakfast on the street. Under the tarpaulin shed. The fire in the wood stove is blazing, and the oil soup in the huge clay pot is slowly rising, and it seems that it is not yet fully boiling, but it is estimated that when the dawn comes, this pot of oil soup boiled from the bones of the tube will be ready to scald the noodles.
These small breakfast shops are limited in scale. But it is a necessary composition of shops for people's livelihood. The perennial early business shop has a very good grasp of the hour, carrying bags in the land warehouse, carrying bags at the dock, woodcutters, blacksmiths...... Many laborers with limited income eat a simple, affordable, but hot and oily breakfast here. It's just time to start work early.
Walking past an early stall, Wu Shu, who was walking beside him, suddenly said: "I remember that you seem to like eating wontons very much." ”
Mo Ye was slightly stunned, she looked sideways at Wu Shu, and was about to speak, but she saw the lights that had been laid earlier falling on Wu Shu, reflecting his sweat, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"You just did it with someone?" Mo Ye asked worriedly, not knowing what to do.
In fact, she lay on the roof for half an hour, and stood under the eaves for more than an hour, and in the late spring night, she felt the slightest cold. At this time, she suddenly saw Wu Shu, who usually traveled through the city, and probably didn't pant heavily, was sweaty, the contrast was so great, she didn't know what happened in that hour just now, of course she would be uneasy.
In the face of Mo Ye's concerned inquiry, Wu Shu did not answer or explain anything.
Seeing this, Mo Ye hesitated slightly, then she took Wu Shu's arm and took him into the morning stall on the side of the road. She didn't want to eat breakfast, but wanted Wu Shu to take a break for a while.
Seeing that there were customers entering the store, although the noodle soup had not yet been cooked, the owner still greeted him with a smile before it was time to officially start making a living. The shopkeeper's gaze quickly swept over the two of them, and finally stayed on Wu Shu's face, and the shopkeeper said with a smile: "The two guest officers came really early, and there are still some trivial matters in the shop that have not been dealt with, if the two of you want to use the breakfast, you may have to wait a little longer." ”――
