Chapter 30: A Thief on a Moonlit Night
The two talked for a while and then parted. Yu Xia said goodbye to Yun Nianchu, went home first, and rested with Yu Chun after eating dinner and washing up.
Yu's family has three rooms, Yu Da has Yang Cuilian to live in one, Yu Xian himself to live in one, and Yu Chun and Yu Xia sisters to live in one. Now Yu Xia goes to Dongyu to study during the day, Yu Chun is equivalent to unloading a burden, can do more of his own things, often go to the ground to help Yu Dayou and his wife, and fall asleep at night as soon as it gets dark. Xu was overworked during the day and slept very heavily at night.
When Yu Xia entered the sea, he heard that the family was asleep, so he quietly lifted the quilt.
Yu Xia put on his clothes, went out lightly, and closed the courtyard door with the courage, but when he turned around, he saw a figure standing under the tree in front of the door.
Yu Xia was so frightened that she almost screamed, but when the man saw that she saw him, he was afraid that she would scream, so he immediately bullied her and covered her mouth.
"It's me." There was a crisp male voice in his ears. At this moment, the moon stars are scarce, Yu Xia can see the appearance of the young man clearly through the moonlight, the clear glow of the moonlight is sprinkled on the young man's face with a cold light, the thick eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, and the deep eyes seem to be darker and darker, and he can't see the bottom at a glance.
He's so good-looking, Yu Xia thought to himself.
Yu Xia winked at him, and when He Sui saw that she recognized herself, he let go of her.
"Why are you here? Didn't you say that we would meet under the big tree at the entrance of your village? Yu Xia was surprised.
"It's not safe for you to walk at night as a girl." He Sui put his hands behind his back and shook them weakly, and the burning sensation of her breath spraying into his palm seemed to linger.
The two of them walked towards the outside of the village together, the sound of frogs in their ears, the barking of dogs in the distance, the wind blowing carried the smell of paddy fields, and the two people who were tall and short under the moonlight walked unhurriedly, with a leisurely attitude.
"How do you know my family?" The two were silent for a while, and Yu Xia suddenly remembered this question.
"I asked someone." He Sui was vague, but he didn't say that he was busy at his house in Yu Xia for an afternoon to prepare, and he wanted to send her home but was politely refused, and finally he quietly followed her all the way, and saw her go to the bamboo forest to practice with a good-looking girl, and finally saw her enter the house before quietly returning.
He Sui remembered the appearance of her practicing with that girl in the evening, and had a strange feeling in his heart, his classmate was really not an ordinary peasant girl, but a person with secrets, and her family probably didn't know much about her, and the women he saw were not the same, just the girl who was with her......
He Sui had an indescribable feeling.
Wu Changxing waited at the entrance of the village for a while, and the road from the countryside to the county seat was not very convenient, so he specially rented a carriage to come over, which could save most of the time.
The last time Yu Xia went to the county seat, he still took an ox cart, this time he couldn't help but be a little curious when he saw the carriage, the reddish-brown horse was standing there leisurely, Yu Xia stepped forward to take a closer look, but the horse that was originally lazy and motionless actually took two steps back, Yu Xia walked forward again, and the horse retreated, staring at her with big eyes, full of defense.
"Is it afraid of me?" Yu Xia felt a little hurt, she was not a cat and a dog, but she was disgusted by a horse.
Wu Changxing also wondered, this carriage was brought by him, and he naturally knew that this horse was docile and quite close to people, who knew that he was a little uneasy when he saw Yu Xia in the past.
"Is there something in you that scares it?"
Hearing He Sui say this, Yu Xia remembered.
She carried a talisman drawn in the afternoon in her arms.
Speaking of that talisman, Yu Xia is very good. In the afternoon, He Sui came to look for her, so she went to his house with him, and asked him for a clean room to draw talismans.
This was her first time drawing a talisman, and she knew what kind of pattern it should be in her mind, but her pen was extremely sluggish. Only then did she realize that drawing talismans was not as simple as she imagined, and after drawing more than 30 talismans, she finally got a finished product. In order to draw such a talisman, Yu Xia's eyes were black several times, her brain ached, and she took several qi tonifying pills in one breath to relieve her strength, and her body has improved recently, with her original body, she will not be able to become a talisman, and her previous plan will not be implemented. Thinking of this, she knew how difficult this road was, if it was really as simple as she imagined, then it would be impossible for Queen Yuzhen back then to help Taizu establish Dazhang with her ability to defy the sky, calm the flood, relieve the famine, kill the evil and eliminate the demons, and bring a hundred years of stability to Dazhang. Thousands of years have passed through the ages, but there is only one Yuzhen Queen, which shows that in Xuanmen thaumaturgy, it is more difficult than climbing to the sky.
Yu Xia faintly glimpsed the direction she wanted to go in the future, but she also began to understand the possible obstacles on this road, since she was a child, she was a burden to her family, but her heart was much firmer than that of ordinary people, the more difficult it was, the more she wanted to face the difficulties, it can be said that the eight hundred Xuanmen books in her mind were considered to have found the right master.
The three of them quickly arrived outside the city by carriage, and at this time the city gate was locked, Wu Changxing parked the carriage in the forest not far away, took out a cloth bag from under the seat and put it on his back, "You come with me." ”
Wu Changxing took the two to a wall, although Jintan County is only a small county town, but the south of the Yangtze River is rich, the city walls are built very high, Yu Xia originally wanted to go to the city and wait for the evening to act, but could not explain to his family, Wu Changxing said to let her wait at home, he has his own way to take her into the city.
Wu Changxing opened the cloth bag, inside is a long rope, about two or three zhang long, one end of the rope is connected to a four-toed eagle claw, the other end is a ring, Wu Changxing saw that she was curious, so he patiently explained, "This is called Bailian Suo." ”
"You guys wait down there." Wu Changxing wrapped the ring of one end of the rope tail around his wrist, held the eagle claw with the other hand, and then raised the eagle claw violently, and with a "snap", the eagle claw buckled into a depression in the city wall.
"The city walls are in disrepair, and it is inevitable that there will be a lack of bricks and tiles." Wu Changxing saw Yu Xia's look of amazement, he felt a little proud in his heart, and glanced at He Sui again, the young man still looked expressionless for ten thousand years, and his eyelids were not raised, Wu Changxing suddenly felt bored, and after telling them two sentences, he tightened the chain at the foot and found the slightly raised part of the city wall to borrow strength, and climbed half of it with a rub. Wu Changxing stepped his foot into the depression of the lack of bricks in the city wall, found a bulge with one hand and grabbed it hard, and with the other hand repeated the action just now to throw the chain up, stretched the rope to make sure it was fixed, and climbed up again, and went up the city wall in a moment.
"This is the legendary cornice walking wall, it's amazing." Yu Xia sighed.
He Sui glanced at her and did not speak.
At this time, Wu Changxing had already put down the rope, and He Sui pulled the rope over, "You stand still and don't move." ”
Yu Xia stood honestly and asked him to tie the rope around his waist.
The rope was long enough, and after He Sui finished wrapping Yu Xia, he wrapped himself again.
