Weiziyan, is a fortress in the desert, the only way to supply in the past, but also a steel barrier on the border of Guizhou and Qin, three zhang wall, along the mountain. In the center is an oasis city called the town of Russ.
The town of Russ has a unique way of management, with four gates in the south, east and west, covering an extremely large area, with green fountains, clean and tidy streets, innovative domed loft rooms, pleasant horse-drawn carriages for visitors, and its open and free trade regulations, all show that the castle is not only a leader in economic superiority.
Weapon forging attainments are even more incomparable, it is rumored that some of the humble hawkers here may be the weapons masters you have admired for a long time, no one wants to end up with a lifelong disability in a word, so there is an unusual reckless atmosphere here, so it has created a custom that you can see everywhere harmonious and polite behavior.
For example, methodical queuing, talking about the price of the sven.
"Which little brother here, please pull the crotch zipper, okay, don't let it out again, and ask for a sky-high price." A middle-aged man with a stubble glanced at him.
"This brother, pay attention to what you say, I'm wearing a new imitation thick fleece sweater, just wear a belt of trousers, okay?" a young student in Tsing Yi weighed indescribably in his hand.
"I'm sorry, brother, I didn't say it well, is it too late to change my mouth now" Dahan laughed again and again.
"Agreed, my brother, it's acceptable for your bullwhip to sell for fifty taels."
"Haoler, please be nice"
All in all, it's magical.
In the streets and alleys here, you can see anything you want to see or have not seen, there are a variety of things, as long as you bid high enough, you will be satisfied, even if it is dragon meat, there are people who can sell it.
There are many stories that are worth mentioning every day here.
The sun is scorching, and it is noon.
Dusty, a team of dart carts slowly stopped along the Gobi side of the polder, the things placed on the car were not real, all covered with canvas, leaving only a Qianqian woman sitting on the railing.
The head of the dart is a middle-aged man, a scar on the right side of his face is extremely eye-catching, followed by three carriages unhurriedly, there are six young dart masters in cloth clothes, the belt is tightly tied, and the skills seem to be good.
The loess road in front of him is already extremely hard, and the weather is steep and sunny these days, and it is even more indestructible, but at this moment, there are a few more graves on the side of the road for no reason, and it is really weird under the clear sky.
There are a total of seven simple small earthen bags, and the small wooden plaques three feet high are also listed in front one by one, all of which are engraved with six big characters of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and the loess has been renovated, apparently just done.
This road he said that he walked hundreds of times, and he has been safe, such a strange thing happened, but it was the first time, there were seven of them, and there were exactly seven small bags on the ground, which was not related to it, and turned his head to look at a few overwhelmed little dart masters, he secretly thought about it, but he was frightened.
Just as he was thinking about it in place, the six little dart masters on the side retreated again and again, their faces instantly became frightened, and they pointed to a pile of yellow sand in front of him with a panicked expression, and said the words in their mouths about ghosts and monsters.
The old dart head looked sideways, and he was also on the spot.
This is a pile of yellow sand, which is different from the loess on the left, and there is also a wooden sign in front of it, but the words on it are incredible.
"I'm dead, and I have something to burn paper."
As he spoke, the yellow sand and sand and stone silky slipped, falling to the edge, there were faint wisps of smoke floating up at the top, and the polder was surrounded by mountains on both sides, all of which were steep wall stones, and the sound was repeated and repeated, and it was endless, and it suddenly made people's scalps numb.
The wooden sign is really written on these eight words, the strange thing is that it is these eight big characters, I don't know who read out the old dart head forehead sweat, looked at a few people again, saw a few people's faces pale, frightened not light, and how can they squeak at this time There are no outsiders
It was the woman in Tsing Yi on the carriage, with a smile on her face, her slender snow-white legs swaying by the side of the carriage, casual and natural, and a pair of crystal clear eyes looked around, revealing a strange color.
Fortunately, the sound only came for a while and then disappeared, the old dart head pondered left and right, nodded to a few people, and everyone took some silver from the cloth bag around their waists, dug a pit in front of the yellow sand bag with a pickaxe, buried the silver, and made a few more waves, and greeted them, and a few people packed up, and then planned to hurry.
"Wait" at this moment, a coquettish shout came.
Above the cliff between the cliffs, there is a woman in red who stepped into the air, her toes are light, like a meteor catching the moon, floating lightly and naturally, if the catkins follow the wind, her face is quiet and indifferent, like a fairy in the world, but she has a little more chic.
This woman is wearing a light veil, wearing a tight red dress, and a dark green sword on her back, standing calmly in the field, scanning with cold eyes, and her momentum is really extraordinary.
The old dart head had to turn around and stop, but the woman stood in place and was silent after saying this, it was really a little difficult to guess, several people were suppressed for a while, and even Jue was speechless, so they had to look secretly, although this woman couldn't see what her appearance was, but with this pleasant bearing, she was already from a famous family. Baidu search literature network, more good free reading.
Thinking that he was not a robber, he put his mind at ease and looked at the comer.
The woman stared at the yellow sand bag with her eyes, and breathed a sigh of relief for a long time, she pulled her long skirt and sat on the yellow sand bag, only then the frost plummeted, and her face said apologetically: "I can't hide it, the little woman is just arresting a prisoner, and there is no other way along the way, I think that person must escape along this road."
Her words were sincere, but her eyes were staring at the sandbag, looking left and right, as if looking for something.
"It's hot right now, so let's drink some water and quench our thirst." A young dart master stepped forward, but he didn't dare to look at the beauty behind the veil, the water bladder in his hand trembled, and his face turned red.
"Thank you, brother." The woman took the water bladder, smiled sweetly, her voice was delicate and soft, and the little dart master took a few steps back and scratched the back of her head, looking in a trance, and she was a little demented.
The old dart head coughed, and also handed over some dry cakes and beef, and sighed: "The girl is alone, walking the rivers and lakes, you should be careful."
The dart head and face were scarred, and he looked terrible, but his words were so heartwarming, the woman looked at him, and her eyes were full of vicissitudes, and she only felt that this person was also a person of suffering.
Nodding his head, "That's what Uncle said."
When the woman had finished eating, the old dart head got up and led the horse, ready to leave.
Several people escorted the dart on the road, and when they met the grave, it was already taboo, and they saw that she had no taboos and behaved recklessly, and even the deceased dared to disturb and offend
Don't say that it is really a blame punishment, that is, it is often disturbed in the dream, and the consequence is that the seven of them are unbearable, this woman is skilled, and she has no fear of thinking, if she speaks to stop it, she is afraid of offending, the old dart head took the idea, and had to bow her hand at the moment, and said with a smile: "The girl punishes the evil and eliminates the evil, and the chivalrous righteousness really makes us admire."
Then he made a color to a few people, and everyone said in unison: "The girl's bearing is extraordinary, and her conduct is good, which really impresses us from the bottom of our hearts, and I hope that the wicked person will be arrested as soon as possible."
"It's not enough to be chivalrous, it's still necessary to catch petty thieves." The woman's chin was lightly tapped, a little shy, and when she thought for a while, she continued: "Dare to ask a few people who have a smooth dart game."
"The girl has good eyesight," the old dart head smiled appreciatively, then looked up, stopped talking and said with a sad face: "It's just that it's not early now, and we have something important to do, so it's really not okay to talk about it, it's a little weird here, don't stay for a long time, it's better to go to the city with us, and have a good look."
"That's not necessary, Uncle wants to put things first, don't dare to slack off, if you meet again in the city, the little girl will definitely set up a banquet, thank you for your grace." The woman in red clasped her fists and bowed, bowing down.
"There will be a date later."
"There will be a date later."
The carriage rushed forward, and the woman in Tsing Yi on the carriage also nodded with a smile, which was regarded as a greeting.
The dart master and his party are far away, the woman in red is still sitting on the sandbag, her face is strange, suddenly saw a bamboo branch hidden behind the sandbag, she looked happy, and then quietly took out the handkerchief, folded a few times, and gently covered the bamboo branch that leaked out of a section, and then said to herself: "Dog leftover, you said at this moment, where did you run to"
After a while, I heard her sigh again: "It's been a long time, and I'm afraid that I'm hungry."
The sun was falling, and the woman talked around the sandbag for a while, chattering in pieces, as if she was worried about her sweetheart, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, and being very concerned.
The dirt bag vibrated suddenly, and then flew sideways with the bamboo branches, and under the dust, I saw a figure quickly rolling to the side, slapping up and down his body sharply, and spitting sand in his mouth.
"Oh, how could this hero be so downcast" The woman in red was surprised, covered her lips and chuckled, her big eyes full of knowing doubts.
"Sister, Hugh is going to make fun of me."
The man's clothes were in tatters, and he shook his head again and again in response, patted his clothes for a while, and then walked towards the scattered sand, took out the mahogany sword on his shoulder, dug out the silver taels buried by the previous dart master with the tip of the sword, and wiped them one by one with his sleeves, and then stuffed them into his arms one by one, his expression eased, and he raised his feet and walked in the direction of Beicheng, not paying attention to the smiling woman on the side.
The woman obviously understood, and before he could answer, she followed briskly with her hands behind her back.
The man was naturally Jige, and he never imagined that the road to this small town of Russ would be so far, and when he passed through the Gobi, he saw several pilgrims who had died in other places, and he could not bear it, so he decided to bury them here.
The reason why she avoided Qing Liu'er may be because she saw something she shouldn't have seen when she went out to call her in the morning
"Let's go into town early," Gig said, glancing at her, it was getting late.
When the two of them arrived in the city, it was already night.
Shan Yi came to the foot of the city wall, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, in the vast desert, there is such a city, the bluestone city wall as high as more than ten zhang, the vermilion arch is magnificent, and the wisdom of the ancient sages is really limitless.
When the sun sets, the lanterns at various intersections in the city have been lit early, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is naturally very lively, and everyone celebrates this festival in their own way.
The fireworks by the river are gorgeous, all kinds of small clay figures, strange masks, sweet and greasy syrup stalls are all available, people come and go along the way, one after another, or accompany the beautiful woman to stay in front of the rouge stall, or hold the paper fan to linger in the lantern riddle lantern place, the river sail painting boat is parallel, and the bow of the boat is hung with exquisite lanterns.
"I really didn't expect that there was a river in the middle of this desert," Jige sat in front of a small noodle stall, looking at the endless stream of people, there were different characters in the city, and there was nothing strange about him carrying two swords on his back.
"That's nature, this river is not ordinary." Qing Liu'er sat opposite the stall, put down his chopsticks when he heard the words, and said softly: "Some people say that this river goes back and forth, and the water from the upstream flows downstream, and finally it will still flow upstream. ”
"And this kind of thing," Jige smiled, the infinite loop of the river still needs to eat noodles.
Seeing that his face was gloomy and seemed to be surprised, Qing Liu'er glanced at him, then turned her head to look at the lanterns by the lake, and ignored him no longer.
On the Yanbo River, the scenery is charming.
Along the river, many merchants sell lanterns of different shapes, animal shapes, as well as the legendary Monkey King, Zhu Bajie and other famous figures.
Jige glanced at Qing Liu'er and saw that she was fascinated by the lanterns, so he quipped: "Little sister, do you want my brother to buy you a lantern?"
The lanterns by the river are bright and exquisite, and many people have bought them and have begun to write with a pen.
"I don't want it, this lantern looks beautiful, but it's just a flash in the pan, it only lasts for a night." Qing Liu'er pretended to be disgusted, but her straight eyes betrayed her.
Rouge, bracelet hairpins, lanterns. What woman did not love these Jigers in her eyes, and did not make a sound, but weighed the loose silver in her bosom, smiled at her, and walked forward with her hands on her breast.
"I don't want what you're doing." Qing Liu'er's anxious voice came from behind him.
"What are you doing" Jig turned around and looked at her with some amusement, "I didn't say I bought it for you, and besides, I don't have any spare money"
"Then what are you doing here" Qing Liu'er's tone drooped a little, only to feel that her cheeks were hot at this time.
Hidden in the dark, he couldn't stop rubbing his cheeks, but he clearly smiled at himself evilly, could he be wrong
"Of course I'm here to see how these boys pick up girls." Jige had already come to the river, leaning on the railing, and looked generously at Miss Childe, who was in love not far away.
The merry boy by the river has already written a greeting, put away the folding fan and bent over to the opposite lady to give a salute, and said a few words softly, the young lady looked shy, twisted and pinched the lantern, and wrote a message on the other side of the lantern, and glanced at the merry boy with affection, and then the jade hand reached into the silk cuffs and took out a silk embroidered purse.
Qing Liu'er also stood at the railing, secretly looking at Miss Gongzi by the river, her eyes turned from time to time, and when she saw the merry boy gently taking the purse, she immediately covered her cheeks with her hands, embarrassed.
Ji Ge saw it in his eyes, and pretended not to understand and asked her: "What does this young lady mean by giving a purse to the son?"
"How do I know that our Lanling women never do such shameful things." Qing Liu'er's snow-white neck was red, and it was very good-looking.
Sending a purse is a thing that men and women have a good feeling, this kind of love is deep and natural, what kind of shame is it Ji Ge smiled dumbly, and when he saw that she was really unbearable, he stopped talking.
"Let's go, let's go write lanterns too." Gig spoke.
In front of the hawker stalls are all sorts of small and delicate lanterns, and behind them is the shallow grassy area without fences, which should perhaps be called river lanterns.
The woman was delicate, looking at the dazzling array of lanterns, carefully selected, Jige naturally didn't understand her thoughts, chose a lantern in the shape of a herring, then took out the silver and handed it to the boss, turned her head and asked her, "What do you want to choose?"
Qing Liu'er seemed to be in love, her expression was hesitant, and she unintentionally glanced at the herring in Jige's hand, and immediately laughed out loud, and then hurriedly covered her mouth.
Her smile is full of grace, delicate, and the dashing boys who choose the lanterns next to her are looking at her with dull eyes, petite and exquisite, and her eyes are curved like crescent moons, which is really beautiful.
Disaster to the country and the people, Jige snorted, he was already familiar with this scene, hurriedly took a herring lantern, shook his hand and put down a tael of silver, and pulled her away from the crowd.
"I said sister, I suggest you disguise yourself, okay" Gig gasped and said helplessly.
"What is camouflage, why do I want to disguise" Qing Liu'er looked at the herring in her hand, and her face couldn't see that she liked it.
"This," Jige was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "There is indeed nothing wrong with beauty, but there is a dragon and a crouching tiger hidden in this city, who can guarantee that there is no person with bad character who will take the opportunity to rub oil."
"After all, it's not that you can't protect me" Qing Liu'er pinched the tail of the herring fish, opened her big eyes, and ruthlessly exposed.
"Let's go, let the herring go." Gig argued, angry.
If he could, he would be willing to put a few ink marks on Qing Liu'er's face, and the risk could be greatly reduced. Gig imagined that it would be much better if she had been hit with a matchmaker's mole, but if she did, she might have to be beaten up.
When Jige was in a daze, Qing Liu'er had already brought a brush over, wrote a few small characters smoothly, and beckoned Jige to write a greeting.
He didn't practice writing with a brush, so he directly used the brush as a pencil to hold, wrote his blessings crookedly, and sent the lantern to the water.
"What did you write" Qing Liu'er saw his solemn expression and said curiously.
"It is the responsibility of the husband to write about the rise and fall of the country." Gig pretended to be mysterious, and then asked her, "What about you?"
"Don't tell you" Qing Liu'er was quite angry, obviously not believing what he wrote this, and secretly glanced at it a few times, all of which were words that he didn't recognize.
Jige wrote in her hometown, how could she tell it
At this moment, there was a cacophony of sounds on the surface of the lake.
"Stop" was heard in the distance.
A light boat came by riding the waves, the speed was fast, and it avoided a few painting boats dangerously and dangerously, driving many exclamations on the river.
On the boat sat a man paddling continuously, this man had a dark face, looked honest, dressed in light black and short brown, and carried a floral lady's package behind him, and his expression seemed to be a little panicked, and he kept looking back.
"Look, it's a thief." On the painting boat, someone spoke loudly.
"Hey, really, look behind, there are still people chasing him." The other pointed behind his finger, where the shadow of the ship swayed very quickly.
Such an exclamation naturally attracted the attention of everyone present, and the people by the river on the road looked back one after another, and then leaned against the railing, looking at the two people chasing in the water.
The shadow of the boat in the rear is turbulent, and I saw a voice wearing a hat galloping on the lake, crossing several feet between the feet, stepping on the boat all the way, several figures between the ups and downs have caught up with the people who oared in front, and the people who came to see the light boat in front of them clearly, snorted coldly, and stepped out of the air with one foot, only to hear the sound of the dancing wind, and the person has stood on the light boat.
"Spare your life, heroine, the villain is also forced to do so." The thief turned his head, his face was already pale, and he hurriedly knelt down in front of the hero after handing over the package in his arms, and begged for mercy with a stack of words in his mouth.
"In broad daylight, Lang Lang Qiankun, this green capital, how can you be a place where thieves and rats dare to rob wantonly" There was a mask hanging on the hat, and the person who came was dressed in black, supporting the wind and willow waist, and his words were crisp and pleasant, and there was a point of pride in his pride.
"Yes, yes, the heroine is taught." The thief lay on the ground and kept giving up.
The woman in black hugged her fists around the light boat and saluted the people watching the play around, and said loudly: "The festival is approaching, I hope you will put away your money bags, don't let the small people take advantage of it." ”
The thief's face was like ashes, and his expression was especially pitiful.
The woman in black took out the rope from her waist behind her, and continued: "Since the little woman saw it today, adhering to the chivalrous righteousness, she will definitely bring you to justice and send you to the government, hoping that you can change your evil ways in the future, be a new person, and abandon unhealthy trends." ”
The thief had a knot tied to his hands, and sat on the bow of the boat with a sad face, and still nodded his head at the moment, looking quite funny, and passers-by also exchanged their heads and made accusations.
The woman in black took the package, counted it, and stood there, waiting for the owner.
After a while, a small boat came from behind, and the person who came was a woman, with a mediocre appearance and an anxious face, and when she saw the woman, she hurriedly ordered the boatman to stop, and got on the boat with tears in her eyes.
"Thank you to this woman for helping me recover my lost package." The woman cried and thanked her.
"You don't need to thank me, when you see injustice, you draw a sword to help, this is the spirit of a person who practices martial arts." The woman in black picked up the woman, handed the package to her, and then said softly, "You take a closer look, there is anything missing from this." ”
The woman wiped her tears when she heard this, checked them one by one, and then shook her head and said, "There is no omission, thank you Woman." ”
"No thanks. Now that you've found your lost property, you should hurry up," the woman in black caressed the woman and got into the boat.
Then he checked the rope on the thief's body, and then hugged his fist at everyone and said: "The little woman is going to arrest the thief this time, so say goodbye and leave." ”
After she finished speaking, someone in the crowd on the shore suddenly spoke: "Miss Fang, she must be Miss Fang."
Someone around responded: "Miss Fang is not the woman of the city lord, Fang Qinghan"
"It's her, it's her, excellent martial arts, chivalrous and righteous for people, and heartfelt."
"I didn't expect that we would be lucky enough to see the girl Fangzi today."
The light boat has not gone far, and at this time, many people are waving to the middle of the river and praising one after another.
Gig also looked at it from afar, a smile on his lips.
A crappy play.
