Chapter Twenty-Five: The Girl of the South
"Who are you?" Wang Yi looked at the man in black in the alley warily.
This man in black came without a trace, went without a trace, how could a poor Wang Yi see the man in black, naturally it was because the man in black blocked his way, this alley itself is in the depths, no one is seen before, no passers-by are seen after. If Wang Yi shouted, I was afraid that no one would hear it. Wang Yi was neither humble nor arrogant, not in a hurry, and did not seem to be afraid at all, and asked a question calmly.
"Who I am, Lord Wang doesn't need to know, Lord Wang just needs to know, the Fuzhou you go to is not simple. Does Lord Wang regret it?" the man in black spoke, and this shrill voice was hard to rejuvenate that this voice was made by this man. Wang Yi concluded that this voice was not the real voice of the man in black, it was obviously processed, so the identity of the man in black naturally seemed unusual.
Although Wang Yi speculated, he didn't retreat, he knew that this man in black didn't want to kill himself, and if he wanted to be unfavorable to himself, Wang Yi didn't have any ability to resist.
"I naturally know this, but I will never regret what I have done, I have nothing to do in Anyang City, I might as well do my best to live for half a year. If someone instructs Your Excellency to dissuade me, then Wang Yi may disappoint him. Wang Yi said calmly.
"Lord Wang, you are really courageous, here is a letter, which was passed on to Lord Wang by my family. The man in black took out a letter from his chest with a cowhide seal, the letter was very thin, and it was obvious that not many words were written in it.
"Then thank that lord for Wang Yi. Wang Yi bowed and solemnly took the letter in his hand.
"Ding, ding, ding. By the time Wang Yi raised his head, there was no one in the alley.
"Ding, ding, ding. Wang Yi suddenly heard that the sound of bells seemed to come from the alley in the depths, which was extremely crisp, just like the sound of ice cubes hitting in summer, and like the sound of fine jade hitting each other.
Wang Yi couldn't help but be attracted by such a voice.
The walls of the alleys, for those who understand, communicate with each other, but they are different, and the walls of the alleys cut off the sunshine of the spring afternoon, but let the spring breeze pass back and forth.
Wang Yi's hair was pinned to both sides at will, loose and loose, and a few strands of hair on it were disturbed by the spring breeze.
Although Wang Yi has no sword eyebrows, the books he has read give him a kind of wisdom that ordinary people do not have. At this time, he was turning his head slightly, looking at the place where the bell seemed to come from the front, and the next moment it seemed to come from the back.
Wang Yi's seemingly lazy turn of his head happened to hit the spring breeze coming from the opposite side, and it happened to let Wang Yi see that at the end of Xiaoxiang, where the sun was full of sunshine, a donkey, a girl, and a string of bells happened to pass there, and it happened that the girl's eyes looked in the direction of the spring breeze shuttle, and saw the inch of cloth in the depths of the dark alley, and looked into the bottomless eyes.
"Ding, ding, ding. The bell rang slowly, the little donkey did not stop, the girl did not stop, the moment it seemed to break through the whole world, just like that, passing by, like a spring breeze, leaving only the rippling sunshine, shivering.
Wang Yi turned his head and continued to walk forward, continuing to move towards his goal.
The three big characters of the priest Fu were written by Emperor Ming Cheng himself, and they hung at the gate of the priest Fu in a dashing manner.
As soon as Wang Yi, who was wearing a cloth robe, stepped on the gate of the priest's fu, he was also stopped by the soldiers of the priest's fu. It wasn't until Wang Yi opened his mouth that the soldiers guarding the door recognized the cloth clothes that came to him, it was Wang Yi who was caressing by the priest, Lord Wang.
"Lord Wang Yi, I heard that you have been promoted. The soldiers were smiling on the surface, but in their tones, they were full of ridicule, after all, no normal official would let go of a quiet and peaceful official, but instead chose the governor of Fuzhou City, which was a dangerous position.
"yes. Wang Yi nodded with a smile, how could he not see through this mocking gaze, but his eyebrows were still indifferent.
"Lord Wang Yi, you are looking for Lord Wang Cen. One of the soldiers asked.
"Yes, I want to say goodbye, is Lord Wang Cen still there?" asked Wang Yi politely.
"Lord Wang Cen has just left and returned home, but he said that if Lord Wang Yi comes to him, he will give him this letter. The soldier respectfully handed over a handwritten note. It was neatly folded, and there was no envelope, but judging from the traces, the Tao had not been opened.
"Thank you, farewell. Wang Yi arched his hand, took the handbook, and turned to leave.
Wang Yi walked back to the road, thinking about whether he needed to go to the palace to say goodbye to Wang Cen, and suddenly remembered the handwritten book, and couldn't help but open it and look at it. There are only two big words, and it is difficult to give up.
Wang Yi smiled at the corner of his mouth, this can be regarded as a farewell, it seems that Wang Cen does not want Wang Yi to come to the door to say goodbye, so Wang Yi is also happy, put away the handbook, and strode in another direction without hesitation.
Since you don't go to the palace, you can still prepare more supplies for the next time.
"Ding, ding, ding. Wang Yi didn't seem to notice that the sound of bells in the downtown area echoed in the crowd.
"Lord Wang, why do you have time to come to my small shop today?" Wang Yi had just stepped into the shop where clothes and shoes were made, and there was no one, so the boss with Erlang's legs rubbed his hands and trotted towards Wang Yi.
Wang Yi said gently: "If you want to buy a robe, just give me a cheap one." “
Wang Yi said his wishes without tactfulness, although he didn't make much money, at least it was a business, thinking of this, the boss still dutifully introduced it.
After a while, Wang Yi walked out of the store. Fuzhou is close to Yinshan, where the winter must be much colder than Taiping.
Wang Yi looked at the little money left in his hand, shrugged his shoulders, and while thinking that the money couldn't help but be spent, he comforted himself that at least he had bought some robes and new shoes.
"Ding, ding, ding. The familiar sound of the bell rang in Wang Yi's ears again, and Wang Yi stopped and instinctively turned back.
Looking in the direction of the sun, the back of the girl, and the butt of a little donkey, were swaying and hiding in the sun, walking towards the front. Wang Yi squinted, but after all, she still couldn't see the girl's face.
This time, Wang Yi did not walk in his own direction, nor did he stop in place, but raised his feet and followed the sound of the bell. One step at a time, Wang Yi's footsteps stopped. He shook his head, as if his reason was warning him that such a move was really inappropriate. I just wanted to turn around, but I saw that the donkey's footsteps stopped, shook the tail on the buttocks, stopped in front of a hot steamed bun shop, and tilted his little head to look at the steamed buns in front of him. At this time, Wang Yi couldn't help but stop again, half sleeves, half skirt, white calves and arms, all told this girl that she was not a peaceful person, and looking at this appearance, she looked more like a person from the south.
In the south of the south, there is a country called the south. There are many herbs in the south, men, women and children, all dressed in color, plain clothes at the hem, exposed with wrists and ankles, and can talk to Gu worms.
Although Wang Yi has never been to Nanlin, she has some impressions of the sentences describing Nanlin.
Wang Yi raised her eyes and refocused her gaze on the girl in front of her. Why did a girl who was about fourteen or fifteen years old come to Taiping alone? It's something that must be done.
Wang Yi raised her legs and walked behind the girl, the owner of the steamed bun shop was embarrassed, this girl didn't say, didn't ask, it was not good to catch up by herself, and it was not good if she didn't catch up.
Wang Yi smiled gently and said, "Boss, bring me three steamed buns." Wang Yi took out all the money and bought three steamed buns.
"Alright, come, guest officer. The boss packed three steamed buns and handed them over.
Wang Yi took it and naturally put one of the steamed buns in the girl's hand.
The girl raised her head and looked at Wang Yi, who was just a head taller than herself, and was looking at herself with a smile, the girl tilted her head, as if she didn't know why this person wanted to give her steamed buns.
Wang Yi smiled, didn't say anything, and left with his feet up.
This is the first time we've met, and it's the last time we've seen each other.
Wang Yi sighed, he could think that after going back, Wang Liang would definitely complain about why he spent money to buy steamed buns.
Although, he is his master, if he loses him in life, he is really not used to it.
The afternoon sun was warm on the floor, the little donkey on the street was still chewing something, the tail was flicking, the steamed bun in the girl's hand was still steaming, she still looked at the crowd, although there was no Wang Yi's back inside.
The bell at the girl's feet, I don't know why, rang again, obviously, there was no wind.
