Chapter 121: It's Dawn (1/2) (3,000 words)
It's dawn.
At this time, it was already the time of the hour, not only did Liangzhou City block many people who wanted to go out of the city, but the people in the villages and towns who left home early and drove dozens of miles were also blocked outside, complaining.
Wang Anfeng bypassed the east gate all the way, spared a big circle outside Liangzhou City, and entered the city from the north gate guard, the north gate was directly destroyed by the aftermath of Wang Anfeng and Xu Sixing's fight a few days ago, and the guards and soldiers guarding the city were considered to be Wang Anfeng's lives.
Therefore, Wang Anfeng pretended not to see it when he entered and exited the city, and after letting him go out, he went in the same way as he came, because during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the city gate collapsed, and there was no one here today, saving the effort of concealing his tracks.
The guard general did not ask Wang Anfeng what he went out for, only closed the side door in silence, Wang Anfeng thanked him softly, and then walked forward, and when he walked out of several streets, a middle-aged man carried a flat shoulder, looked at him from that place, and said:
"The little brother came back from the north gate, could it be that he could go out of the north gate?"
As he spoke, his footsteps paused, and the two large wooden barrels on the flat shoulder shook with it, Wang Anfeng raised his hand to help him stabilize, and then shook his head, with a little apology, and said with a smile:
"Nope."
"I just wanted to see if I could go out from the north gate, but the city was very tightly guarded, and it was still not allowed, I said for a long time, and I had no choice but to turn around and come back."
The man's face showed a look of loss, and he muttered to himself, and the pedestrians who stopped to listen around him also shook their heads regretfully, and an old lady with silver hair muttered:
"It's too bad to be an official."
"Don't let people out, don't let people in, don't tell what the reason is, don't know the reason, don't know the reason."
"What else is the Pillar Kingdom...... A lot of age has been lived in vain. ”
Wang Anfeng's tone was kind, he agreed to a few sentences, and then watched the old lady leave, before turning around and walking towards the inner city, he didn't take a few steps, he had already blended into the crowd, his steps couldn't help but be brisk, and he felt that the probability of this matter being discovered was really much lower, and it would not affect those officers and soldiers.
He raised his hand and touched the purse around his waist, which was completely shriveled.
Now in the morning, it is the time for the people to eat breakfast, although the closure of the city restricts the people from going out, which has caused a lot of trouble for many people, but Liangzhou is a big city after all, and those who should work and sell oil cakes are still pushing carts out.
On both sides of the street, smoke rises everywhere, the tempting aroma is fragrant, Wang Anfeng touched his abdomen, he has eaten dinner last night, until now, the grain of rice has not entered, and there has been a long period of fighting, smelling this smell, I can't help it at the moment.
Walking to the side of the stall, the shop was selling oil cakes, steaming one by one, the skin was golden and crispy, sprinkled with large black sesame seeds, and when he saw Wang Anfeng approaching, he greeted enthusiastically:
"What do you want? We have just the right oil cake here, the materials are real, one has two Tongbao, and two only need three. ”
Wang Anfeng said: "Bring me three, a rice porridge and pickles." ”
I went to touch the purse, pinched it but was extremely deflated, paused slightly, and then met the suspicious eyes of the shopkeeper, reached into my arms, and took out ten Daqin Tongbao, which were neatly placed on the corner of the table.
"In the side dishes, put less spicy."
At the north gate of Liangzhou, the guard looked at the craftsmen who were ready to repair the collapsed city gate from the city, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
He walked aside, as a city gatekeeper, he also has an official body, and usually has his own stone house, but now he naturally has no more, so he has to sit at a table and chair on one side, and then he sits down, noticing something strange, his movements are slightly paused, and he reaches out and touches his waist.
In the money bag, suddenly sank a lot, he opened it and looked, except for the original silver coin, sure enough, there were many places, broken silver and whole silver, almost thirty taels of silver, just slightly stunned, he understood the origin of this thing, and his tense expression because of taking risks couldn't help but relax a lot.
The guard took the money bag, threw it on the table, made a loud noise, and then said to the soldiers next to him: "Today, the divine doctor has a treat, and after the brothers change shifts, go and have a good drink." ”
…………………………
After eating the three oil cakes with rice porridge and side dishes, Wang Anfeng's hunger was finally alleviated, and he was not in a hurry to go back, just like those young people who had nothing to do, he sat on the bench in a daze, watching the passers-by.
Then he seemed to be full and unwilling to move, so he took out a book from his arms and read it leisurely, because there are not many people now, and the store is happy to have someone to attract popularity, and there are some young students around who want to win 'fame' and be recommended to be an official, and they don't even want to waste this effort to eat breakfast.
A scholar sat closer to Wang Anfeng, and when he saw that there was no name on the book cover in his hand, he sneered disdainfully, and said: "Another layman who reads the gaudy words in the market, does not read the admonitions of the sages, and is self-literate, and I am ashamed to be with him!" ”
After that, he snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves heavily, turned sideways, and put on a tall appearance that he didn't want to see Wang Anfeng, and there seemed to be several familiar students around him, echoing and admiring.
The store was empty, glanced at those scholars, and said to Wang Anfeng:
"Little brother, don't care about them, a sour smell, just racking their brains to get a good reputation, and then looking forward to being recommended by officials and being able to become officials, hey, don't look at it, just their family, where can they take a fancy to those adults?"
"It's nothing to flatter here, and people can't see it."
The scholar almost blushed when he heard this, turned around and glared, and said:
"How dare you say that about me?!"
"Don't you know when your husband comes? The Master did not dare to ......"
The shopkeeper interrupted him impatiently and said, "If you really have the ability, then you can't afford to come and eat my oil cake every day. Only then can we be filial piety and honesty, and learn ......"
"You, you, you......"
The young scholar was furious, pointed his finger at the shopkeeper, but he couldn't say anything complete, suddenly sighed, staggered back two steps, looked up to the sky and muttered: "The world is so big, there is no such thing as a child of my peasant family, and a scholar from a poor family has a road to heaven......
"Hateful! Hateful! ”
When he said this, he was more sincere than Fang Cai, but he only got a sarcasm from selling oil cakes, and said:
"If anyone really has the ability to open this way for you, will he not cut off the way of so many adults? I all know that robbing people of money and killing their parents, who has the one who doesn't want to die, and opens the way for you? ”
After finishing speaking, ignoring the dejected scholar, he bowed his head and said to Wang Anfeng:
"Little brother, don't care about those scholars, it's sour, it's the same as jealous girls, don't look at what the world is unfair now, when it's his turn to be an official, he doesn't know what to do, don't you think the benefits are not pretending to be on yourself?"
"Otherwise, how can you say that you are a poor scholar and a sour scholar?"
"Little brother, you eat your own, don't care about these vinegar jars that have dropped the bookbag, alas, by the way, what kind of book are you reading now, little brother? That gentleman, has a new masterpiece? How much is the drawing in it, and how is the drawing? The beauty is more plump or more thin, according to what I said, I still want the smiling student to write the most ......"
Wang Anfeng had a gentle smile on his face, and he couldn't hold back, and interrupted:
"It's just a letter from home......"
"Huh? That's ......."
The shopkeeper was slightly disappointed when he heard this, and smacked his lips, just as a customer came forward to buy some oil cakes, so he didn't care about Wang Anfeng, turned around and continued to work on his own business.
Wang Anfeng exhaled a breath of turbidity, glanced at the scholar, retracted his gaze, and pressed back the thoughts that were surging in his heart and chest from his youth.
Not enough time.
He opened the book in his hand, and the words written directly above it were,
"This book is the only one with my oriental blood."
"Whoever is in the line of my Oriental family, I should stand up with strange books, even if I am a side branch and practice martial arts, I must also understand the way of thaumaturgy......"
"Martial artists practice qi machines, and they use heaven and earth for several purposes, and the three religions also have methods, which can exchange my heart for the heart of heaven, and only I have a vein of strange books, and I can adjust the heavens."
This is the Oriental family thaumaturgical book that Dongfang Ningxin gave him, and as for the Qilin lock of the divine weapon fragment, it has been put back into the Shaolin Temple at the same time as it was put into his arms.
After all, it is a part of the divine soldiers, the qi and the spirit are different, and there is still a pillar country in Liangzhou City, which I can't distinguish between the enemy and the enemy, so we must be cautious so as not to cause branches.
At that moment, Wang Anfeng gradually became obsessed, and the shopkeeper next to him took the time to take a look, but he only saw a white expanse, even though he felt dizzy, and almost fell into the oil pot. I was shocked into a cold sweat, thinking that I had been in bed and off the bed recently, consuming too much energy, and there was a risk of losing some kidney essence, but I forgot about the book directly.
And at the same time, in the Shaolin Temple-
The aura of the unicorn lock is slowly revived under the support of a huge will, and it can feel its own antiquity and strength, and can understand what 'itself' represents, called the will of the unicorn.
It 'remembers' that generations of owners have been with it and have been with it for generations.
It is able to 'remember', the fear and awe of countless enemies.
This is the respect and status it deserves—
Under the unicorn lock, countless blood stains.
Those who can use divine weapons are naturally the first-class heroes in the world, first-class masters, and such masters will naturally have arrogance that is difficult to match, so of course the unicorn lock is arrogant and blind.
It is like a king who has been sleeping for three hundred years and has been resurrected.
It was as if the ancient beast had re-entered the human world, ready for another slaughter and crushing, ready to be bloodstained again, sowing control and fear.
I just don't know who is awakening "myself" this time, but no matter who it is, I should be extremely fortunate and respectful.
With such determination, it 'looked up', and then 'looked' at the faces of the people in a circle around it.
Among them, the most kind Tao is:
"You're awake......"
PS: Today's first update is ............ Three thousand words, sorting out the outline, adjusting the style, so it's a little late...... The previous situation of foreshadowing that was too long and turned out to be too depressing will not happen again......
