Chapter 57: He's Gone
"This is the capital?"
Jia Siwen laughed lightly, "This is not the capital, this is just a ferry." A few miles further on, it is the Mingde Gate, and only after entering the Mingde Gate can you really arrive in the capital. β
Qi Kuai sneered, "The countryman really doesn't know anything, and he saw a pheasant called a phoenix." β
This Qi Kuai always mocked me openly and secretly, and I was used to it, and I didn't hear what he said.
I patted my chest, "Scared me, I thought this was the capital." "If the capital is like this, then we and the people of Great Qin will not have to cry bitterly.
Wang Luo looked at the looming tall buildings not far away, and lowered his head thoughtfully. His face did not go through all the hardships and dangers, and finally returned to the excitement and yearning of his hometown, which he thought about day and night. He was calm, calm and incomprehensible.
Jia Siwen said: "It's not early, let's go in quickly." If it's too late, the gates will be closed. β
We quickly packed our things, abandoned the boat, went ashore, and headed north along the street. We didn't change out of our fisherman's clothes, because we hadn't been with the fish for a long time, the fishy smell on our bodies was not so strong, but we could still smell it when we lay on our clothes. Sure enough, those who are close to Zhu are red, those who are close to ink are black, and those who are close to fish are fishy.
After walking a short distance, there were more people, and the streets gradually became lively. It's just that there are more than just now, and it still can't be called busy and crowded. When I looked up, I couldn't help but be stunned, and a majestic tower appeared in front of us. It is both solemn and magnificent; It is both magnificent and beautiful. Standing there like a temple, I felt as if I had arrived in the heavenly palace. I rubbed my eyes, it was still standing in the bright sun, announcing to the world that this country was so strong.
What surprised me the most was that there were actually five doorways in this city gate, and the city gate of our Tengcheng was only one doorway, and it was really not a level. People entered and exited in an orderly manner, with carriages and horses entering and exiting through the doorways on both sides, and pedestrians entering and exiting through the next two gates. And the middle door, but no one walks, but the pattern on it is the most exquisitely carved, there is a smooth curly grass pattern, a mandarin duck carved by a line, and a crouching lion carved on the top......
The city tower is more than 100 feet high, the whole is magnificent and magnificent, and the atmosphere is magnificent, but the details are not delicate and exquisite.
The gates are flanked by thick and high walls. The walls are gray, about four stories high! The walls are strong and square, towering majestically, giving people a sense of solidity and awe-inspiring invulnerability.
Just this magnificent city tower and incomparably strong city wall are enough to show the strength of our Great Qin.
The city tower and the city gate are densely packed with guards, they stand straight, guarding the south gate of Yong'an City, and they are also guarding the foundation of the Great Qin State.
I was about to enter the city gate to feel the prosperity and prosperity of my Great Qin Kingdom.
Wang Luo, who was walking in front, suddenly arched his hand at us, "Thank you, thank you for your hard work all the way to send me here, I am very grateful." The rest of the way, I can walk by myself, I won't bother you, don't cross it! β
He looked at us with a smile, and I suddenly felt like he was back to when I first met. He didn't have a trace of reluctance, as if we were just meeting in the water, and now that it was time to separate, it was natural that we would not hesitate to go our separate ways. What a ruthless and unrighteous man! I thought we had gone through so much and become good friends. I thought we'd send us to his house? I would like to take the opportunity to visit his house? It looks like he's not going to give us this chance anymore.
Ignoring the surprised gazes of the four of us, he took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and handed them to Xuan Feilun, "I'm sorry, this is a little compensation for me, please accept it." β
Xuan Feilun didn't take it, "You look down on our Zhenhai Dart Bureau too much." Since we have taken your dart, we will naturally do our best to protect the safety of the dart, and if there is an accident, we should have borne it, so I will not accept this. β
Wang Luo smiled, "As I said, there will be heavy thanks when you arrive in the capital, how can you break your word, please accept it." β
Since people are so polite, we don't need to be so polite. I pulled the Xuan Fei Wheel, which I couldn't open, and took Wang Luo's silver ticket, with a smile on my face, "Thank you, Wang Gongzi." β
The smile in his eyes was gone, only calmness remained, his eyes were like an ancient well, without a trace of ripples, "You're welcome!" He paused, then added, "If it's all right, go back as soon as possible." Over here...... For you...... Not very safe. β
After Wang Luo finished speaking, he turned around and left, he walked a few steps, suddenly turned around, glanced at us, seemed to have something to say, and finally said only one sentence, "Take care!" β
After saying that, he turned around and walked away, entered the gate of the city symbolizing imperial power, blended into the flow of people, and disappeared. He was gone, really gone, and this time there was no turning back.
I was a little reluctant because we had been through so many hardships together. I've long regarded him as a good friend of mine, and now he's gone. I was a little empty, and I wanted to call him out and make him turn back, but I didn't shout in the end. After all, it's a different person! I naively thought I could be friends with him? I'm so naΓ―ve, identity is a chasm that many people can't bridge. Perhaps, we will never see each other again in this life. It's okay that some people are just passers-by in your life and will disappear from your life one day. In that case, what is there to be sad about, just go!
"Hey, people are far away, still look. Reluctantly, then go after it! Qi Kuai next to me began to sarcastically mock me again.
I gave him a blank look, "Go aside." Where I look at him, I look at the gates. β
"Really?"
I ignored him and looked at the silver ticket in my hand, which added up to tens of thousands of taels. Does this Wang Luo have a vault at home, why is he so generous? It's a pity that I can't be his matchmaker for such a rich person.
I handed the silver ticket to Xuan Feilun, "Wheel, you are stupid, why don't you want the silver given for nothing?" Besides, he didn't give it to you, he gave it to the Zhenhai Dart Bureau. β
Xuan Feilun snorted, took the silver ticket, and casually put it in his arms.
I remembered something and asked Xuan Feilun, "By the way, where is his box?" β
Xuan Feilun said: "He has always carried it himself!" And it was not handed over to us. β
"Oh." So that's it! No wonder he woke up that day looking for his clothes, it turned out that things had been on him all along. I couldn't help but regret it, I knew it earlier, I secretly took it out and took a look.
Jia Siwen asked, "Since we don't have to go into the city, do we go back now or stay for one night?" β
"Of course you have to stay!" I replied without thinking. Just kidding, I haven't done my business yet, how can I go back?
Jia Siwen said: "Then where are we staying tonight?" β
Where to stay tonight is a real question!
