Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Town of Jinlin

Come to the bustling town of Cloud City - Jinlin Town.

This place was heavily guarded, and there were two groups of officers and soldiers who were arrested at the city gate, and all the Qianshou who entered the city were "searched."

"What is suspicious?" The officers and soldiers snatched the rich merchant's white jade wrench, and righteously asked him to take off all the jade, gold and silver on his body.

Now it's good, the rich merchant was first robbed of his clothes by the rioters, and then robbed of his property by the officers and soldiers at the city gate.

"Do you and I have any valuables on us?" Qing Ning asked him.

I only heard him laugh and say, "No, if there is, it's you." ”

Qing Ning smiled, she clutched her veil and followed him closely.

"Is there any customs clearance paperwork?" The soldier asked.

"Not really." Xiao Jingyi said.

"Go, go, go! Go aside! The soldier waved away.

"Is it possible to have a household registration?" Qing Ning asked.

"No! This place is not a place for outsiders! The soldier's face was grim.

The two turned and left. I saw that the surrounding area was full of fleeing Qianshou, and the crowd of black oppression was counted, and there were about more than 100 people, all of whom were turned away from the city.

Xiao Jingyi glanced around and saw many tall men, holding the horse with one hand and Qingning with the other, and left the crowd.

Thinking that tonight must be going to sleep in the wilderness, Qing Ning couldn't help but sigh.

"You can enter the city tonight, don't panic." Xiao Jingyi carefully spread the blanket on the ground and let her lie down for a while.

He stayed away from the crowd on purpose, not knowing what countermeasures he was thinking about, Qing Ning thought.

At night, the suburbs are especially cold, maybe it is almost winter, the cold wind is biting, and the cold is so cold that Qing Ning shiveres.

Xiao Jingyi took out a cloak and put it on her body and hugged her tightly in her arms.

The moon in the sky is like water, and there are no clouds. The birds and finches have long been asleep, and the insects and beasts are sleeping in their nests.

The grass has dried up and is slightly yellowish.

Xu was overworked from the journey, and Qing Ning gradually fell asleep in his warm chest.

"Sleep well, I'll come when I go." Xiao Jingyi gently put her on the ground and covered her with thick clothes.

The city gate has been guarded by a group of officers and soldiers, but seven or eight people are patrolling, and the gate is closed.

The fleeing people slept at the foot of the city, embracing each other for warmth, and their teeth chattered with cold.

Xiao Jingyi walked to the crowded place, they fell asleep together, and there were still some people who were too cold to sleep.

"It's been winter lately, and it's been really cold." Xiao Jingyi sat down beside the tall man.

The man ignored him, clasping his hands to his chest, shivering. This kind of climate, not to mention women, even masculine men can't stand it!

"I see that the soldiers on duty change every half an hour, although the city gate is closed, but it is old and dilapidated, when the soldiers change duty, you and I can bring twenty or thirty people present, you can break through the city gate, and enter the city to avoid warmth." Xiao Jingyi said, no one paid attention to him, and no one dared to risk killing his head.

Xiao Jingyi saw that everyone was indifferent, so he stood up.

"Listen to me all who are awake, but one death is left and right, it is said that the city is prosperous and lively, even if there is a broken temple, it is enough for us to enjoy, the men and I rush into this city gate, and when they die, they can be honored with bliss, and the living can have a lot of good lives!" After Xiao Jingyi finished speaking, he saw dozens of people being woken up, and after listening to the second half of his words, he began to move.

"Forget it! What a waste of my tongue! A group of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death! It's a good life to suffer from the cold wind! Xiao Jingyi pretended to turn around and left.

When he returned to Qing Ning's side, Qing Ning was sleeping deeply, his body trembling slightly in the cold wind.

Xiao Jingyi paid attention to the movement on the other end, thinking whether it could be done or not depends on whether people's greed is big or not.

Popularity...... Who can guess?

Suddenly, there was a stir outside the city gate, and the shouts of the crowd became louder and louder, Xiao Jingyi immediately stood up, looked at the fugitives not far away, and only heard them shouting, "Rush!!! ”

Xiao Jingyi hurriedly woke up Qingning, and when she woke up, she was stunned for a moment, and he pulled her on the horse.

The horses galloped into the gates, and saw that the gates had been broken, and the flames lit up all around, and there were many corpses lying on the ground, men, women, and children.

To be alive is to step on the corpse of others.

……

At night, the city is exceptionally quiet, with red lanterns, painted pillars, and wine flags hanging from the shops.

The city is very large, only from the north gate can leave the cloud city to go north, in addition, there is another mountain road to walk, but there is no way to go out for a day, at night, there are wolves.

Xiao Jingyi found a temple, looked at it from a distance, there was a faint firelight, and when he got closer, it was the ancestral hall of the Yun family.

Yun family? Haven't heard of it.

Qingning's sleepiness struck, and after a few days of hurrying, she was physically and mentally exhausted, and after getting off the horse, she hugged Yu Qing tightly and held back her tears.

Xiao Jingyi cherished her a lot, and it was rare that she could survive the ups and downs for more than a month, with the earth as the bed and the sky as the quilt.

"Let's rest tonight." He reassured.

Therefore, the two walked into the ancestral hall, only to feel that it was a lot warmer, there were many candlesticks on the table, and there were fresh fruits on the table.

After the two of them ate some sacrifices, Xiao Jingyi hugged her and fell asleep, and she slept very peacefully this night.

The cold moon hung high in the air, and the fugitives were arrested by the soldiers one after another, killing and chasing, and only a few people hid properly and were not discovered.

……

In the early morning of the next day, a woman's laughter came from outside the ancestral hall.

"The girl is so talented, quickly find a good husband to marry, lest you humiliate the slave and maid day and night!" Yulan laughed at her.

"Ho...... Person??? ”

"Who ?!! here?"

The two women shouted in unison, and when they saw the shabby futon, they asked, thinking that maybe it was a homeless man? It's better not to run into a madman, it's better to go quickly!

"Girl, please stay!" Xiao Jingyi stood up and walked towards them.

Miss Xia and her slave hurriedly took a few steps back and looked at him with a wary expression.

"The insider caught a cold last night, and I don't know where there is a hospital nearby." Xiao Jingyi asked.

Xia Wanxi breathed a sigh of relief and began to look at him, thinking to herself what a handsome son! He can be the head of Cloud City, but I don't know if he has the talent?

"Yes, at the end of the bridge." Yulan said.

"Thank you, two girls." After that, Xiao Jingyi packed up and hugged Qingning.

"Where are you going?" Qing Ning asked in a daze.

"Look at Langzhong." Xiao Jingyi said softly.

"Nope! I'm running out of entanglements, and I don't want to go! Qing Ning refused, struggling to get off the ground.

"It's important." Xiao Jingyi hugged her helplessly.

Qing Ning didn't want to be a burden to him anymore, Xu was sick, and she felt tired.

"I'm ...... There are a few taels of silver, let's go and see Langzhong. Xia Wanxi shyly handed him the silver.

Xiao Jingyi didn't answer, but Xia Wanxi stuffed it into him, pulled the maidservant and ran away.
