Chapter 22: Duanyang City

Three days later, in the evening, a young man came from outside Duanyang City, this young man had a very haggard face, riding a horse, and immediately carrying a woman in an unconscious, the woman fell into the young man's arms in a coma, and at first glance he was seriously injured, and the blood stains on his clothes had coagulated.

The young man galloped towards the gate of Duanyang City from afar.

"Drive!!"

The guards of Duanyang City were about to step forward to inquire with their halberds, but they saw the galloping young man take out something from his arms and flash in front of the guards: "The ruling is urgent!"

Duanyang City is the city where Linjiang Province is located, and the guardians are at least ground level cultivators, although the young man is extremely fast, he can still see the blood-colored begonias on the token, and he immediately did not dare to stop it, and turned back to reprimand the pedestrians: "The ruling is done, and the idle people are quick to dodge!"

The young man rushed into Duanyang City, and he didn't have time to enjoy the bustling scene of the big city, so he went straight to the branch of the adjudication.

The young man is naturally Zhang Yanyun, Zhou Chuxue has only woken up once in three days, Zhang Yanyun no longer stayed after knowing the specific location of the Duanyang branch of the adjudication office from her mouth, and came non-stop, and only drank some water in three days.

Zhou Chuxue was seriously injured, and if he dragged it on, he was afraid that his life would be in danger.

Gradually, the surrounding voices faded, and the environment became a little remote, and a somewhat eerie blood-red mansion loomed in the distance.

Zhang Yanyun's heart gradually became nervous, although this trip was to ensure that Zhou Chuxue arrived safely at the adjudication office, but when he approached the adjudication office, he could not help but be shocked by its gloomy and cold atmosphere.

This is the most terrifying and iron-blooded institution in the Eastern Zhou Kingdom!

Far away, Zhang Yanyun reined in his horse and walked slowly, there were almost no pedestrians here, the sunset was like blood reflected on the mansion, and the already dark red bricks and tiles were even more blood-red, revealing an indescribable seriousness.

Finally saw clearly the three blood-colored characters splashed with ink on the "Judgment Office", Zhang Yanyun only felt a slight tremor all over his body, as if those three big characters alone could kill people.

The adjudication office is different from the yamen, it is the highest judicial body of the country, and it is separate from the administrative organ of the yamen, and the yamen will open the door all day long to deal with any emergencies, but the adjudication office is different, although it operates day and night, it has never been in the habit of opening the door to accept cases, so even if Zhang Yanyun has walked to the door at this time, he has not seen any officials of the adjudication office.

The street directly opposite the ruling is called Dongting Street, because there is a pavilion at the east end of the street.

The two stone lions at the door are also different from the rest of the mansions, the stone lions in other places are facing straight ahead, but the two stone lions in front of the court are looking at the middle, staring at the people in front of the door with hideous and terrifying eyes, as long as they dare to walk to the door of the judgment office, they will be stared at by these two gazes.

Therefore, since the opening of the ruling office here, there are almost no people on the entire Dongting Street.

Although Zhang Yanyun has changed his opinion of the ruling due to Zhou Chuxue, the cold image deliberately created by the ruling still dominates, coupled with the secret of the little demon, Zhang Yanyun still doesn't want to see anyone other than Zhou Chuxue.

Zhang Yanyun took a deep breath, carefully picked Zhou Chuxue off the horse and put it in front of the door of the adjudication office, and stuffed the adjudication token into her hand.

He lowered his head and quietly stared at Zhou Chuxue's bloodless face, and said softly, "Senior sister, I rescued you back." ”

After a pause, he scratched his head again and said: "I think I can handle the things in my body, and you can't keep me now, although you said that you won't let me get hurt, but you yourself are so seriously injured now, so ...... That's all I have to send you here. ”

"I'm sorry. ”

"If you really feel uneasy, wait until you recover from your injuries and come to me, anyway, you know that I am going to Linjiang Academy to practice. ”

"Well, leave it at that, senior sister. ”

Zhang Yanyun stood up, suddenly remembered the bits and pieces of this journey, and some thrilling experiences, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Thank you, senior sister, I still owe you once." ”

Then he knocked on the door of the Tribunal, then quickly turned and mounted his horse and left.

After turning the corner, he quietly turned around, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that everyone opened the door and carried Zhou Chuxue inside.

......

When night fell, Zhang Yanyun led the horse to walk on the streets of Duanyang City, feeling the prosperity and liveliness of Duanyang City, he was not in a hurry to go to Linjiang Academy, because he felt that if he really wanted to stay in this town for four years, it would be good to be familiar with the environment first.

Although Duanyang City is not as prosperous as Chang'an City, it is too prosperous compared to Dongjiang Town, even after nightfall, the streets are still full of people, and all kinds of street vendors are arranged in an orderly manner, the lights are bright, and the shouts and laughter are endless.

Everything looks good, except for ...... No money.

Zhang Yanyun hadn't eaten for nearly three days, and he hadn't thought that he could really go to the adjudication office before, and he didn't have a penny around him, so when he smelled and looked at so many steamed bread pancakes on the street, the hunger in his stomach became more and more difficult to control.

But he had no money, and he would never steal it, and for a while it was a little dark in front of him, and he could only stumble forward in the crowd with his forehead on his forehead.

"Drive!"

"Drive!!"

"Let one go! let one go!"

The horse neighed and thundered, and a handsome boy in a noble costume galloped from the other side of the road, followed closely by the guards behind him and shouted loudly: "Childe travels, quickly avoid, retreat!!"

"Let's let go, let's let go!" the boy who was dressed in jewels also shouted with a smile on his face, his voice was not serious, and his face was full of spring breeze.

The surrounding tourists were obviously accustomed to this scene, and they all got out of the way early, so that this famous son of Duanyang City could gallop happily.

Zhang Yanyun was stunned but didn't hear it, still leading the horse in the crowd, the person in front of him suddenly dodged, he couldn't stand steadily, and fell towards the middle of the road with a "poof".

Brother Gongzi was galloping his horse, and suddenly saw a person fall out of the crowd, and he fell to the ground, so he hurriedly tightened the reins of the horse!

"Appeal ......"

Fortunately, Gongzi's brother is skilled, and if he is a novice like Zhang Yanyun, he is afraid that he will run over him.

The guards behind him rushed up and grabbed Zhang Yanyun, and just wanted to reprimand him, but when he saw that he had fainted, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Zhang Yanyun's horse whispered on the side, silently stepping on the ground.

"Young master, he fainted. A guard ran up to Brother Childe and hugged his fist.

"Fainted?" The extremely handsome boy frowned, looked at the young man who fell to the ground, and after thinking slightly, he turned over and dismounted, and threw the reins to a guard beside him.

"Get out of the way, let me see. Brother Childe cut his hair and leaned over.

"Impossible...... I didn't hit him, why did I faint?"

"What if this happens to me?"

"No, no, no, we have to wake him up. ”

Brother Gongzi muttered in a low voice as he looked at Zhang Yanyun's face closer.

Looking at this, Brother Gongzi was happy.

A wave of his hand: "Come on, come on, carry him away for me!"
