Chapter 495: Acquaintances on the Road
Luo thought about it for a while, and felt that it made sense, instead of spending a bunch of bonus points to make a weapon that was not so practical, it was better not to get it, anyway, the current red umbrella can cope with most situations, and light weapons are not just needed, so they can be put away first.
"I'll come to you when I find the right materials." After Luo Wei finished speaking, he didn't continue to disturb his future work, and left the villa directly.
This is the first time Luo Wei came to Chang'an, the ancient capital of the thirteen dynasties in the old era, the new capital of the Republic of the Honkai Era, its ancient charm is still there, the long alleys paved with bluestone are scattered with faint fireworks in the ancient city, and occasionally pedestrians walk leisurely, leaving the memory of trance in time.
Like all cities, Chang'an has a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, and of course there are common people.
In this long alley, Luo Wei saw many houses, such as the one in front of him, the vermilion paint of the gate has been changed beyond recognition, only a small part can be seen in bright red, and the door has been white, but is reluctant to tear off the double happiness.
The wind gently stirred the hidden door, making a creaking sound, and outside the door sat an old woman, holding a needle and thread in her hand, sewing a petite garment in her hand, which should be the clothes of a little girl, and her serious eyes revealed indescribable kindness.
Stepping on the stone road outside the door, it is very pleasant to feel the unique gentleness of the ancient city, looking at it, as if returning to the past, time can not tell whether it is the present or the past.
Just as Luo Wei stared at the quiet alley, an accident shattered the tranquility.
"Oh, Ou Cheng, don't bother me anymore." At the end of the alley, a little girl's soft voice came.
Immediately afterwards, a slightly immature, but somewhat ill-intentioned laugh sounded: "You will be my girlfriend, and when I grow up in the future, I can give you anything." β
Soon, around the corner at the end, a little girl with a cute rabbit bag on her back walked towards this side with a puffed face.
Judging from the age and dress, this should only be a primary school student after school, and it is not surprising that there are schools in a capital region like Chang'an.
The person who followed behind was eye-catching, and I saw a boy of the same age as the little girl riding on the back of a man, and the man under him was now on his knees and hands on the ground, like a horse being ridden.
The boy called Ou Cheng slapped the buttocks of the man under him with a whip, and said in a voice that was not yet fully developed and still immature: "Drive! Hurry up, don't lose Mu Xi! β
The man under him wiped the sweat on his head with his hand that had already rubbed blood blisters, although there was some resentment in his eyes, he still nodded and said flatteringly: "No problem, little master, you sit tight!" β
The man who was riding even neighed and shook up and down, which made Ou Cheng on his back laugh again and again, and then accelerated to crawl forward, but maybe he was too tired after climbing for too long, he didn't control his strength well, and accidentally bumped into Mu Xi.
"Hey..." Mu Xi was suddenly hit from behind, and fell to the ground for a moment, her white and pink elbow rubbed a bloody mark, she covered her arms, and tears were in her eyes, but she hadn't cried yet.
In addition to the "horse" that Ou Cheng was riding underneath, he was also followed by a person who was similar to the identity of a retainer, and that person walked to Ou Cheng's side and gave a thumbs up: "Little master, your riding skills are becoming more and more exquisite, this should be placed in ancient times, you must be the overlord of galloping on the battlefield!" β
Ou Cheng smiled proudly, jumped to the ground, and walked to Mu Xi's side, with no apology on his face, but with an arrogant smile: "Mu Xi, you just follow me, I'll take you to grandpa's house to play, don't you like generals, there are many generals there!" I'll ask Uncle Ryu Fusu to sign it for you! β
"I don't want it." Mu Xi touched the wound on his elbow, his face suddenly filled with a happy smile, and he said in a milky voice, "The real general should be like General Leng Kite, tall and gentle, who can always protect us." β
At this moment, Luo Wei suddenly found that he knew two of these four people.
One is the man who was ridden as a horse, speaking of which is really a narrow road, this person is actually Liu Haifeng, the son of Major General Liu of the Lin'an Military Region before, and was later escorted to the Chang'an Central Garrison Army, with a bright future.
Later, Major General Liu fell, and some people talked about what happened to the Liu Hai Summit, but everyone couldn't say why, and now it seems that his fate is not very good.
And the little girl named Mu Xi, Luo Wei didn't see it in person, she saw it in the newspaper.
She is the girl who squeezed into the front of the stage and asked "who is the general" when Leng Kite was interviewed by the media in Chang'an after the end of the 7-year Northern Expedition War.
It was precisely because of Mu Xi's question that Leng Kite said the words that made the world unforgettable: "General, you are the one who fights for your happiness." β
Because of this incident, in the following nearly half a year, Mu Xi became a celebrity in Chang'an, with media coming to the door every day, and some large and small military officers visiting.
Of course, everything is hot, now two years have passed, Mu Xi's life has returned to the normal track, her family has not become rich because of the conversation with Leng Kite, and she is not like some Li, because of meeting nobles and rising to the top, she is still just an ordinary little girl, like all her peers in Chang'an, going to school and leaving school.
If that incident had any impact on Mu Xi, maybe it was that sentence that changed her unformed concept, and gave her a seed to thrive in her heart, hoping that she could become the same person as the general.
Next to Luo Wei, the old woman who was originally sewing clothes put down the clothes in her hand, ran to Mu Xi's side a little anxiously, pulled her over, and urged: "Okay, Xixi, it's time for us to go home and do our homework." β
Mu Xi grimaced at Ou Cheng, took the old woman's hand, and left in a hurry.
"Stand !!" At this moment, Ou Cheng screamed angrily, he threw the horsewhip in his hand to the ground, stepped on his feet angrily, and hissed, "You have the ability to take another step and see!" β
Mu Xi pulled the trembling old woman to stop, turned around, and said unyieldingly: "Ou Cheng, do you know why I don't like you, you are too naΓ―ve, you can only bully others, and you are not motivated at all!" β
"Shut up! My grandfather is the generalissimo, and when I grow up, the whole republican glow will be mine, I will have what I want, and there is nothing I can't get! You too! Ou Cheng jumped onto Liu Haifeng's back with a sharp voice, pointed at Mu Xi and the old grandmother, and shouted to the retainers behind him, "Give them a lesson!" β
