Chapter 143: Eight Years and Reunion
A black crow flew from the north, flew up to the eaves of the top floor of the library of Jigong Academy, and landed on the shoulder of Ji Kang'er, who was holding the dossier.
Ji Kang'er smiled and smoothed the feathers on the black crow's back that were blown against the current, and gently plucked the letter scroll hidden in its right wing.
He recognized at a glance the paper used for the letter scroll, which was the mulberry paper that Ji Jiajun had unique to "station" in the clouds.
While opening the letter scroll, he said to the black crow: "It is rumored that Daddy transferred Long Yi to the clouds, let's see what is important about this dragon boy......
"It has been a while since I was in the clouds, and the handkerchief mouth alley is in crisis, and I hope to pay close attention to the movements of the sheep and others. There are only two short lines of words on the paper roll, and the payment is also very sloppy, which is far from Long Yi's usual style of doing things.
Ji Kang'er knew that the matter was urgent, he didn't care about being happy about the unexpected joy of Gugu's arrival in the clouds, and he didn't care about complaining that Long Yi didn't tell the news of their entry into the clouds earlier, Ji Kang'er quickly left the library and went straight to the dormitory, and sure enough, he found that the students were not there.
"Are they really fooled by the sheep to teach people?"
Leaving the dormitory, Ji Kang'er bumped into Chongrong. Chongrong is the only son of the right general Chongkai, and has always had close contacts with Jiyang. At this time, he was hurrying outside the academy.
"Chongrong, where are you going, what about the other students?"
Faced with the questioning of the Lord of the Secret Mansion, Ji Kang'er, Chongrong was dumb for a while, and thought to himself: "The Lord of the Secret Mansion rarely goes out of the Library Pavilion, why did he bump into me at this juncture?!
Chongrong pretended to be calm and lied: "Teacher, it's almost early summer, and it was the master who asked us and our students to go to the swamp by the Bahe River to find out the mud marks of the swallows in order to infer this year's harvest......"
Ji Kang'er pretended to believe Chongrong and nodded to allow him to leave.
Standing in front of the corridor of the house, after Chongrong left, he showed the long sword at his waist, which had not had a chance to be unsheathed in the past two years.
The sword of the eldest brother cannot be separated, and the ambition of the eldest brother does not dare to forget it.
......
Shaoyi, Gugu and Nanyin walked out of the courtyard and walked in the handkerchief-mouth alley, and before they could get out of the alley, they saw a black-clothed man with a long sword blocking their way at the other end of the alley.
"Your Excellency, please. Shaoyi's eyes stopped cooing and Nanyin, as if to say, "Don't be busy." He stepped forward and politely excused himself.
"It's not going to work. ”
The words of the man in black made Shaoyi eat the closed door......
Shaoyi didn't laugh angrily: "No, I'm afraid it's not you who have the final say, but the sword in my hand to answer." ”
"In that case, why bother talking nonsense. ”
Goo Goo hurriedly stepped forward to stop the less one.
The more she listened, the more she felt that the other party's voice was so familiar, but she was blindsided for a while, and she couldn't remember who it was.
The man in black slowly undid his mask, grunting.
The man in black and the coo looked at each other for a while, neither of them could recognize anyone, and they both felt a sense of familiarity and strangeness.
After eight years, Ji Kang'er is no longer the gentleman boy who broke into Dayanhe Village before, and Gugu has gradually faded away from the childishness of the little baby, no wonder, no one knows anyone.
Shaoyi and Nanyin stood aside and said in unison: "You don't know each other, do you?!"
The two looked away in embarrassment.
Ji Kang'er woke up from the surprise of the reunion and said to the three of them, "You can't get out of this alley now. ”
"Why?!" asked Goo, not even knowing why she was speaking so recklessly and eagerly.
Perhaps, she is still treating the young man in front of her with the attitude of dealing with the gentleman eight years ago.
Ji Kang'er knew that he couldn't explain one or two sentences, so he said, "Why don't we go back to the courtyard and talk first?"
Even Nanyin, who has never understood human feelings, noticed that the two of them had a holiday in the past. One less is an ostrich-like and silent.
Cooo tilted his head and motioned for everyone to go back to the courtyard.
The four of them seemed to feel the solemn atmosphere of the alley, so they obeyed the coo, entered the courtyard with their front and back feet, and closed the courtyard door.
"The barbarian is innocent, this matter started because of me and Shaoyi, we have to save him and the old carpenter......" Gugu didn't listen to Ji Kang'er's persuasion at all, and had to go to the carpenter shop on the street in Handkerchiefkou Hutong to see the carpenter's grandfather and grandson.
One less also means that you have to go.
Seeing this, Ji Kang'er had no choice but to tell Nanyin: "Remember, don't let Shaoyi and Wang Zi Jiyang bump into each other." ”
Nanyin had already seen the sheep in Zixiao Palace, and nodded in agreement.
The four of them left the courtyard and looked up, the dark clouds coming down from the direction of Nanshan covered half of the sky, and the wind blew the dust on the ground everywhere......
By this time, several streets around Handkerchiefkou Hutong had been emptied, and the dust raised by the strong wind whipped mercilessly on the faces and hands of the four of them, and even penetrated into their eyes, mouths, nostrils, and ears with impunity.
Holding their breath, they walked towards the mouth of the alley.
At the mouth of the alley, a small group of forbidden troops instigated by the sheep had been besieged to death.
At the other end of the alley, it was guarded by the students of the academy of Jiyang. Most of them are the children of the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government, or the children of rich families in the clouds, except for Chongrong, who has some ability, others don't throw bricks and don't smash their own people, then thank God.
Shaoyi and Gugu found that there was Cui Tianqi's shadow behind the crowd at the mouth of the alley, and he rode on a tall horse with a serious face, unable to judge from his face: whose side this guy is on.
......
There is a sedan chair parked in front of the carpenter shop on the street in Handkerchiefkou Hutong.
The young man standing next to the sedan chair was holding a sword that looked not too old, and his eyes were staring straight at the handkerchief mouth alley covered with dust, without even blinking.
He always likes to stare at a still life for a long time before he starts, as if this will make him more focused and confident to face the next moment. This habit had been cultivated since the first time he held a sword, and later, he was nicknamed "Big Eyeball" by someone who had ever dealt with him.
"Senior brother, it's all up to you this time! Last time, if it weren't for those two guys from the Demon Clan, this kid wouldn't have really escaped. At this time, I finally found them again, but I must not let them go again. In the sedan chair, the sound of a goat came out.
It turned out that standing next to this sedan chair was the "big-eyed bead", the swordsman who killed the last princess Payil a few days ago - Qian Tian, the senior brother of Jiyang, and the champion of the "Broken Mind Competition" of Jigong Academy four years ago.
Unexpectedly, in order to deal with a kid he had never even seen, Jiyang even secretly "transferred" the personal guards around Jiahai.
Qian Tian's eyes narrowed into a slit, and when he slowly opened them again, he replied lightly without humility or arrogance: "I heard that kid has two swords, I want to see if he has four pairs of ......."
On the other side of the sedan chair, the old carpenter and his grandson barbarian were tied back to back, each with a rag in their mouths.
On the threshold of the carpenter's shop, the bean sprouts Ganji who was sitting had a cold smile on his face, and his smile revealed a villain's pride, smugness and disdain.
