Chapter 42: Misunderstanding

A hunchbacked old lady walked up to the two and asked, "Old man, what is this?"

Old man Li waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it, it's not the war that caused this kid to flee all the way here." ”

The old lady didn't ask much when she said "oh", she politely asked Yichen to sit down, turned around and continued to prepare the meal.

Yichen looked at the teacup on the table and sighed, he had also felt this kind of warmth in Zhang Qi's house, but now although he was afraid that he would be affected and did not go back, he didn't know if Xue Linfu was angry with him, after all, Xue Linfu had seen Zhang Qi intercede for him on the military field, he began to doubt himself, and he began to be afraid of dragging everyone around him.

Yichen turned the teacup, looked at the two old men, and wanted to go up to help them, but he didn't know anything, so he had to sit on the chair cheekily.

Old man Li shouted at the door to the two children outside the door: "Ah Bao and Ah Hong have eaten!"

Yichen saw two children running towards the house through the door, and asked the old man, "Grandpa, is Zhuyue City the place where Emperor Chen lives?" ”

Old man Li shook his hand and said, "No, Emperor Chen's place is far away, it seems to be called Huanglin City, but I heard that Emperor Chen did live here, it seems to say that Moon City is the queen's hometown or something, oops, I'm old, I can't remember clearly." ”

Old man Li patted his head, sat on the stool and chatted with Yichen without saying a word.

From Old Man Li's words, it is roughly understood that the whole city of Moon City is in the shape of a crescent moon, there are many flowing water bridges, and jade is spread all over the earth.

After a while, the old lady finished the meal, Yichen hurriedly helped bring the meal to the table, and the two children sat on the old lady's lap and looked at Yichen with a pair of curious eyes.

There are not many types of meals, compared to the food that has been eaten in Jiangcheng, it is better than that, it is no wonder, after all, there are thousands of troops and horses in Xuecheng, and tens of thousands of dishes are prepared at a time, even if there are dishes, there are not enough people.

After dinner, it was dark. Yichen stood outside the door, the village where he was standing was surrounded by mountains, and countless stars appeared in front of him like a long python.

There was a calm, serene atmosphere all around, and every house saw a little fire through the windows, and from time to time there were a few homely and noisy sounds in every house.

Yichen suddenly felt his waist move, his face tightened, and he hurriedly lowered his head and shouted, "Don't move it!"

A child grabbed the handle of the Demon Liberation Knife, looked at Yichen's fierce face, his two big eyes moistened, and he cried out loudly.

Seeing this, the old lady hurriedly pulled the child over and reprimanded: "How many times has Bao told you, don't move the things of the people on the side, why don't you listen." ”

Seeing this, Yichen understood that the old lady also had a sense of reproach for his actions, but if he didn't find someone else to witness the danger of the Demon Liberation Knife to them, where could he explain it.

Old man Li asked Yichen to go back to the house to sleep, Yichen ran around for days, he was already sleepy, and he fell asleep as soon as he lay down, and he saw the old man put out the fire in a daze, and several people slept on a big stone bed.

It was bright and Yichen was woken up by the noise outside, he squinted and sat up, looking at the lively crowd outside.

Old man Li brought a bowl of rice water and said, "Wake up, come and drink while it's hot." ”

Yichen thanked him and took the rice water.

"Grandpa, thank you for taking care of me yesterday, and today I want to go to Moon City while it's morning. ”

Old man Li's face didn't change much, and he said: "This Moon City is near, and you have to climb over more than a dozen mountains to see it, I think you should rest for a few days." ”

Yichen shook his head and said, "Old man, do you know that besides Moon Chasing City, there are any other cities that are closer to the Northern Desert or Xinjiang City?"

Old man Li frowned and said, "I don't know about this, are you looking for relatives?"

Yichen smiled bitterly and said, "Sort of." ”

Old man Li hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, those soldiers will not embarrass our people if they are fine, it will be sooner or later to meet, I will go and ask if anyone in the village has entered the city in the past two days." ”

Yichen grabbed Old Man Li and said, "No need, I want to leave later, and I won't trouble you." ”

Old man Li couldn't resist him, sighed, and didn't say anything more.

Yichen ate something, and the old man prepared some dry food for him, and said goodbye.

He suddenly remembered something, turned to Old Man Li and said, "Grandpa, yesterday.."

I saw that the old man Li waved his hand and said: "Although I don't have much knowledge of the old man, I can't be wrong to look at people, you don't have to explain anything, that mother-in-law has that temper and loves the short, you don't have to worry about him." ”

Yichen smiled bitterly and bowed deeply to Old Man Li.

Seeing this, Old Man Li hurriedly stepped forward to support Yichen and said, "What is this for?"

Yichen smiled and said, "Grandpa, thank you!" After saying this abrupt sentence, he turned around and strode away.

Old man Li was stunned when he heard this, he smiled and waved his hand to the departing Yichen: "Young man, be careful of the poisonous insects and beasts on the mountain!"

"Got it!"

Yichen told him yesterday according to Old Man Li, the closer he got to Moon City, the wetter the land became, and at this moment he stepped on the ground with one foot, and half of his foot fell into the dirt, and the weeds around him grew more than one person tall, which also proved that he was not wrong.

The next day, he finally came to the Moon Hunting City, one of the four major cities of the Chen Kingdom.

The entire city wall was covered with weeds and thorns, and it was full of ancient atmosphere, and several men in military uniforms searched for the people who came in and out.

Yichen walked in the crowd, and many people cast disdainful glances at him, no wonder, Yichen's half of his pants were covered with mud, and the clothes that Old Man Li gave him on his upper body were also tattered from the branches, almost restoring his appearance when he was in the village of mercy.

And the people around him, some of the little lovers with umbrellas to block the drizzle. Some were in groups of threes and twos, dragging a few horses behind them, pulling long boxes of goods. Some are driving horse-drawn carriages, and people who have never seen the world again understand that there must be people who are either rich or noble sitting in the carriage.

Although Yichen is not the child who just came out of the village of mercy back then, he will be somewhat surprised to see such a wealthy city.

"Stop!"

At this moment, a man in a military uniform walked over and said to Yichen, "What's your name and what are you doing?"

Yichen frowned and said, "Yichen, come to find someone"

"Looking for whom?"

A look of expectation flashed across Yichen's face, could it be that these people had unified the names of all the people in the city in order to help others find them.

"Her name is Yan Xiaodi, and she is.."

"Haven't you heard of it, don't you know that there is a rule in this city that you are not allowed to carry a sword!"

Imagination is always good, the officer's question was a little more severe, and Yichen naturally understood that this person was here to make things difficult for him.

Yichen frowned and asked, "Then what should I do, will I give you the knife?"

The officer was even more furious when he saw Yichen's attitude, and said, "This is the rule in the city, you can't enter with a blade!"

Yichen was also panicked at this time, if this was the case, wouldn't he have come in vain, but at this time, a carriage stopped beside the two of them.

An old man walked down from the carriage, dressed in black, with a thin face full of wrinkles and a white beard on his chin, his eyes were firmly fixed on the Demon Liberation Knife at Yichen's waist.

Yichen looked at this person's eyes, and clenched the demon release vigilantly.

The old man came back to his senses and smiled at the officer in front of Yichen: "Inspector Meng, you are so diligent." ”

When the officer saw this person, he also smiled and said, "What did Boss Zhong say?" ”

Boss Zhong shook his hand and said with a smile: "Do some small business, it's really embarrassing to be inspected." ”

Boss Zhong looked at Yichen twice, smiled, and said to Inspector Meng: "This person is my friend, or you can look at my face, forget it, the little one will come to visit in the future." ”
