Chapter 501: Buried Sword
The vigorous search for the orphans of the bloody case ended silently. The hearts of the four people present were not good. There was a thick embarrassment in the silence, and they didn't want to face each other.
Yes, it was more than ten or twenty years ago, for Wang Niangzi, no matter how much righteous indignation is more important than the safety of her children and grandchildren, not to mention that the other party is the entire Li Tang royal family, it is better to accept it from a different angle, and regard the deceased ancestors as heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country and the people. Not to mention Jia Ming, who was not very happy to come in the first place, he was afraid that he couldn't wait to get on the road immediately and return to Huzhou to accompany his wife.
In the face of the stability of reality, whether it is truth or hatred, it is washed away by time and vulnerable.
Xia Huanfeng still broke the silence first: "If you two intend to be in Chang'an for a few days, I'll find a way." Otherwise, tonight I will arrange a table of wine and food, and Mingyi and I will practice it. ”
Wang Niangzi's eyes were silent: "Since Chang'an is so heavily guarded now, I won't bother Xia Niangzi." We can also start now. ”
Jia Ming clenched his fists: "Let's take a rest tonight, drink some wine, and get drunk and get rid of the past grievances." ”
Ming Yi looked at Jia Ming's appearance, I was afraid that he was hungry for wine, and they were in a hurry along the way, I was afraid that they didn't have anything to eat and drink, so he said to Xia Huanfeng: "Then trouble Huanfeng to gather some wine and food, and we will accompany the two of you not to get drunk." ”
Xia Huanfeng left in response, and Ming Yi felt a little aggrieved when he stayed in the farmhouse, so he said hello and left for a while.
The farmhouse was not far from the house where the old man had lived at the beginning, and it took more than a quarter of an hour to ride a horse. Ming Yi really wanted to take a look and take a look at Jin Fengjian.
This house is next to the mountain, not on the road to Chang'an, but it is blocked by the victims, and few people come.
The house is the same as ever, the early winter is bleak, and if it has not been taken care of for a long time, the countryside will be ruined.
The rooms are small, and you can see each one at a glance. The ground is solid, the walls are thin, and it doesn't look like a sword that big can be hidden. Not to mention the fact that under the bed, in the box, and in the bedding, these are not safe, and if a homeless person breaks in or a hunter borrows it, it will be discovered if it is turned over.
Ming Yi looked around the house, went to the firewood room, saw the hoe behind the door, and felt a little strange, Cheng Yan used it to do farm work, but it was a long time ago. The first few times I visited, I didn't notice it. Squatting down, I saw some broken soil under the hoe, along with dead grass. Looking at the state of this withered grass, it should be after late autumn. That is, someone has dug up something with it lately.
She recalled that the first time she noticed Jin Fengjian was when he was dancing by the stream, and then another time, when she saw him rubbing his sword by the stream thoughtfully. There are not so many coincidences in the world, and once encountered, I am afraid there will always be a reason.
Mingyi picked up his hoe and walked towards the stream. After looking around, under the tree, a few scattered stones seemed to be deliberately placed. Removing the stones, there are indeed traces of excavation. Ming Yi started to move, the soil by the stream was high humidity, relatively loose, and not too laborious. It didn't take long for me to think there was something underneath.
Planed out, it was a piece of oilcloth, and it was the golden sword wrapped in it.
Ming Yi pulled the sword out of the scabbard with a shudder, and when he looked closely, the spine of the sword was indeed a golden groove. There is a small bump on the handle, which is supposed to be used to release venom. Ming Yi is not familiar with this sword, the sword body is heavy, so he holds the handle with both hands, and accidentally presses the bulge, very strange, originally this kind of mechanism should have a certain resistance, she held it and pressed the bulge without exerting force, and there was no venom flowing out, obviously, this sword can only be used once The mechanism has been used.
Mingyi sat by the stream and thought for a while. Who is using this mechanism? Is the king in charge or at the beginning of the time? At the beginning, it was said that it was a gift from his teacher, but how could the head of the Wang family give the family heirloom sword to others. Why did he bury the sword? With his kung fu, he was not afraid that anyone would find out the origin of this sword and cause trouble, and he buried it, probably only because he wanted to bury it in his heart.
The buried sword must have been when he left this room, why did he dig it up recently? It should be that when he went back to Chang'an to see her a few days ago, he took out his sword and thought about it again.
Unable to think of the result, Ming Yi had to bury the sword back untouched, carefully returning to its original shape, even if he saw it at the beginning, he couldn't tell it.
Throwing the hoe back to its place, picking up the dirt on the hufu, Ming Yi didn't look back, and left the place.
Xia Huanfeng's efficiency has always been satisfying. Back at the farmhouse where Wang Niangzi was resting, Xia Huanfeng's carriage was already outside the house, and Jia Ming helped move the wine jar down.
Ming Yi couldn't cry or laugh, tied his horse and walked up: "You want to make Brother Jia unable to get up tomorrow morning!" ”
Xia Huanfeng smiled: "Don't be afraid, I heard that Brother Jia drinks amazingly, I will give up my life to accompany the hero tonight." ”
Jia Ming changed his original stinky face and said happily: "Xia Niangzi is really a rare heroine among women, no wonder business is doing so well." ”
Ming Yi shook his head with a wry smile, helped Wang Niangzi set the table, and brought out the dishes and snacks in the food box.
Ming Yi thought about whether to let Cheng Yan come, after all, this was the master he hadn't seen for many years. But Cheng Yan is now at the beginning of the worship, in case he talks about martial arts routines and is discovered by Wang Niangzi, it will be troublesome. Simply he and Xing Qing hid it first, and then Mingyi would explain to Xing Qing tomorrow.
The wine and food are good, although it is not the same for the drinkers. But with Xia Huanfeng, no matter who you are with, you can become a confidant. What's more, these two people were originally from the martial arts, and they had their own bold style. The frustration and embarrassment that existed between the four of them disappeared after a few glasses of wine.
Mingyi listened to Mrs. Wang smile and talk about her children, how good her daughter is married. Listening to Jia Ming's red face and saying that his son can already recite many poems and looks stronger than him. Then she began to cry again, and Wang Niangzi regretted that her upright and intelligent brother could have become a better Wang in charge of the next generation. Jia Ming also whimpered a little, saying that now the kung fu has been wasted, and everyone is gone.
Between crying and laughing, the years are long.
Mingyi didn't dare to drink more, his stomach was not wine or bitter water, but a secret that could not be said. Drinking too much, secrets have nowhere to go, flow out, can burn their own feet, drown many people.
But she laughed and cried. I laughed thinking that after many years, I would be like Wang Niangzi, and I couldn't do without my children, and at the beginning, I would be like Jia Ming, proud of my children, and sometimes I would think about the days of the rivers and lakes. The cry is, how far is this untouchable future? How many forks in the road are there? Whether it is the rivers and lakes or the court forces, she is dripping in danger, if she dies, what will happen to him? If she wakes up from a dream and can't come back to this Tang Chaos, she will definitely become a walking corpse as if she has been hollowed out.
Only Xia Huanfeng is always smiling. 2k reading web
