Chapter 513: A Child's Dream of the Rivers and Lakes
I thought I would go south to Dasui, but I don't know why, when I came to the fork in the road, Su Li made a ghost and went towards Xianyang.
Without any plan, he just followed his instinct and walked towards Xianyang step by step, and now he has left the boundary of Danyang County and officially stepped into Xianyang County, as the center of the empire, but the outermost part of Xianyang, he can still feel the breath of pride.
He didn't follow anyone on this trip, just walked alone, but now his identity has become well-known in the empire, whether it is because of the Northwest Battlefield or because of the academy, the name Su Li has fallen on the desks of many big people.
But fortunately, for people at the bottom, a teenager like Su Li is still nothing worth noting, he is like an ordinary study tour disciple.
At the junction of the two counties, there is a quaint city, which was originally the junction of Qin and Chu, and has always been a place where soldiers must fight, but now Jing Chu is destroyed by Daqin, the original rejection of Chu Pass, was renamed the New Territories City, which means that this is a new junction, here is no longer the junction of the two countries, but the junction between the two counties, the plaque that was renamed the city, or from the pen of Yan Zhenqing, a calligrapher of the dynasty, now there is an endless stream of merchants here, and the merchants in the south of the Yangtze River are coming and going frequently, Danyang is also because of the sake of Surabaya, the trade will not be less, the markets on both sides of the city gate road are also lively, after all, this is the foot of the Son of Heaven, There have been no soldiers for many years, and the original atmosphere of slaughter has been diluted by the spirit of businessmen.
The city is very old, because of various relationships, it has not been carefully maintained, but fortunately it is Xianyang here, and there will be no war breaking out, plus the maintenance of the imperial court officers and soldiers, except for some rivers and lakes competitions, it is difficult to have any fights.
In recent years, the atmosphere of the rivers and lakes is rising, there are more and more people who practice, and there are more and more battles, but fortunately, there is an old site on the city wall, bluestone buildings, and the general rivers and lakes will be placed here.
It was just the right time for Su to leave, and on this site, there was already another unique sword competition.
The children were naturally extremely excited, only the adults on the side had a headache and carefully took these naughty tricksters away, and the sword was silent, so it hurt there, and there was no place to reason.
But there will always be some surprises, a naughty little guy escaped the control of his mother, and appeared near the high platform very slippery, his eyes were full of joy, the child's mother was in her early twenties, her skin was like silk, beautiful and moving, looking at the sword competition in the center of the field, and looking at the appearance of her child, some headaches followed up.
Seeing such a young woman appearing on the high platform, where can these five big and three thick strong men in the rivers and lakes let go, they naturally can't help but collectively speak and tease, but fortunately, they all know how to measure, no one really does anything, just has a mouthful of it on the side.
The child seemed to feel that it was not very enjoyable to watch from the sidelines, and was just about to step forward, but was gently carried to the back by Su Li.
No matter how unreasonable the little guy was, Su Li directly handed over the child to the already worried woman.
Su Li's appearance helped her solve a big problem, seeing that her child still wanted to kick Su Li, she hurriedly pulled it in her arms and reprimanded her softly.
Smiled gently, Su Li didn't care, he was also curious to come up and take a look, the two people in the field who competed in the sword were not bad, they were both cultivators of the same realm, in this huge river and lake, these are the lowest people, but compared to ordinary people, it is already good, if it is not for the two people in the field to reach the last moment, naturally they will not stop, if the little guy is close, he will inevitably be injured, so he still pulls a hand.
Nodding goodbye to the mother and son, Su Li saw a hawker shuttling around the stands in the distance, and handed over one or two rock sugar gourds, and his eyes lit up.
Three steps and two steps, he stepped forward, bought two rock sugar gourds, turned his back to everyone, stood on the high platform, looking at the surrounding environment, unlike these people, he was not interested in the competition in the field at all.
Came to the edge of the city wall, sat on the ground, the long sword at his waist was put aside by him, after the five realms, he could already resist the sword, although this sword tire was not used to build his natal sword, but it was also a very convenient sword weapon.
Taking a bite of the rock sugar gourd, the somewhat sour feeling made Su Li squint his eyes slightly, obviously these are made by the hawkers with inferior hawthorn, that feeling, it really has a different flavor!
But fortunately, Su Li didn't mind, one bite at a time, and then spit out the hawthorns one by one, turned into an arc and then fell under the wall.
This is not very soon, there is only the last one left in the rock sugar gourd in his hand, and he was just about to take a bite of it, when he saw the little fart child before, looking at himself intently, and carefully looked at the child, it is estimated that the family background is not too good, but it is relatively clean, not too sloppy.
Seeing that he was discovered by Su Li, the little guy blushed a little, and then stared at his little eyes, feeling a little annoyed and angry, "It's all because of you, I can't even see the competition in the rivers and lakes." ”
Su Li smiled and didn't pay attention to it, just took a bite of the rock sugar gourd in his hand, and then shook his feet while eating.
Seeing that the last one was also eaten by Su Li, a trace of gloom flashed in the little guy's eyes, and then he pursed his lips, snorted, and turned his head to ignore Su Li.
Such a childish behavior, Su Li smiled, and handed the string of rock sugar gourds that had not been opened on the side to the little guy's eyes.
The child turned his head sideways, looking at the tempting string of rock sugar gourds, he also knew that his mother made money hard, he never made trouble, rock sugar gourds were a rare good thing for him, just about to take it, but he thought that his mother was not far away, if he was seen, he was probably going to be scolded again, drooping his head, and then shook his head regretfully.
It's just that when he saw the sword fetus that Su Li placed on the side at random, his eyes became brighter, this was the first time he had seen a real weapon so closely, which made him a little excited, and pointed at Su Li.
Compared with eating, if you touch the long sword, your mother shouldn't scold herself.
Seeing the desire in the child's heart, Su Li nodded casually, and then put the string of rock sugar gourds into his mouth.
After getting the consent, the child's eyes were full of joy that could not be hidden, and he hurriedly held the long sword in his arms, looking like he couldn't put it down, as if he could have a river and lake if he held the sword in his hand.
Seeing Su Li so generous, the child felt that it was not too strange, so he sat on the city wall with Su Li's ass, this scene just fell in the eyes of the woman in the crowd not far away, which immediately made her heart tighten, but fortunately, she saw Su Li's right hand pull the back of the little guy intentionally or unintentionally, and did not let him go too far forward, which was a sigh of relief.
Squinting at the crowds coming and going on the official road, looking at the busy bazaars on both sides, Su Li chewed the hawthorn, outside the gods, this trip was about to leave Daqin, but he still felt unwilling, after thinking about it, he still chose to come to Xianyang, to see the imperial capital, he wanted to see some people, and then go to the border of Jiangnan, where there are still people who owe him a cold snow sword, thinking of the cold snow sword, he can't help but think of the little girl on Sanqing Mountain, these people, he has a lot of little guys.
What impressed him the most was the little girl Tian Tian on Sanqing Mountain, and Du Mu's wild daughter Du Hang.
He hasn't figured out what identity to use on this trip to Xianyang, is it the dark night of the magic brake, or Su Li of Qingyun Academy, he has thought about it for a long time, each has its own pros and cons, and now he is too lazy to think about it, go to the imperial capital to take a look, Xianyang in his memory I don't know if it has changed, and whether those people in the past are still there?
The sword behind him has changed a group of people, today seems to be particularly lively, it seems that the crowd can't leave all of a sudden, he is not in a hurry, looking at the little guy on the side can't put down the sword in his hand, chuckled: "Just touch it, don't pull out the sword, when the time comes, hurt yourself, your mother will have to fight with me." ”
"It's not going to be good, my mother is gentle. ”
The child responded proudly, his favorite thing in this world is his mother, so he won't let others say bad things, if it weren't for the fact that this big brother is polite, and there is no other meaning, it is usual, he started to fight directly, anyway, he didn't do less of this kind of thing.
Feeling the affirmation in the child's tone, Su Li smiled slightly, naturally he wouldn't say anything more, and his afterglow also saw that the woman was cautiously walking towards this side at the moment, a woman with a good figure was mixed in this group of strong men, it was inevitable that it would be a little inconvenient, no, a distance of dozens of meters, she had to walk for a long time, and she hadn't reached it yet.
"Boy, give the sword in your hand to grandpa and I'll bring it. ”
A rough voice sounded behind the two of them, and a burly strong man looked at the child with a hideous face, his eyes kicked, and he looked vicious.
Seeing that the child's eyes suddenly turned red, he was only a five or six-year-old child after all, where had he ever seen such a scene, it was already the limit to be able to prevent tears from flowing, he just instinctively hugged the long sword, and his body couldn't help but move outside.
Such a scene can make the face of the woman who is about to walk pale, and regardless of whether it will let the men around her take advantage, she squeezes through the crowd and comes to the child's side in three clicks.
Hold him in his arms, comfort him softly, and then stand up straight, look at the strong man with a firm gaze, and never back down.
The strong man looked at the woman who appeared in front of him, his eyes lit up, such a woman with such a figure and appearance, he had never slept in his life, and the desire in his eyes suddenly soared, if he didn't care about the army in the city, he might have done it directly.
"Child, give me the sword in my hand, I don't care about you, hurry up. ”
The child hid behind his mother in fear and said timidly, "This is this big brother's." ”
Su Li was not nervous at all, but gently wiped his tears for the little guy, didn't bother to pay attention to which strong man, but smiled.
"Little one, do you want to fly once?"
