Chapter 4: Back to the city
readx;? She followed the boy halfway up a large hill on the southwest side of the village, and the gloom in her heart suddenly disappeared from the sight in front of her. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
I saw that at the foot of the mountain in the distance, the huge capital appeared in her sight, at this time it was the highest peak for the people outside the city to enter the city, and there was a long queue of people on both sides of the city gate waiting for the soldiers on the city tower to enter the city. Most of the shops in the city have also opened their doors to welcome customers, and the people in the city are in an endless stream, although they can't hear the hawkers' shouts, they can see the prosperity of the capital at a glance. Is it really...... Another village!
When they looked back at them, they were on a cliff, and although they were standing halfway up the mountain, the cliff at their feet was bottomless, and the white mist blocked the view of the cliff so that they could not see anything. A few feet away from his feet, an iron chain about the thickness of a baby's arm appeared from the mist, connecting with the top of the mountain in the distance, and the fog between the two mountains was hidden by the mist, as if it were cut off one by one.
Yin Xinrou couldn't help but sigh in her heart, there were thousands of meters between the two mountains, and it was difficult to build such an iron chain in this ancient time when science and technology were not developed, which she could not imagine. Secretly admired the perseverance and determination of the ancients, but she couldn't figure out the purpose of building such an iron lock in such a remote village, and most people would not be able to get out of here!
Looking back at the boy's longing eyes, Yin Xinrou couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, a teenage boy shouldn't have been out of this mountain yet!
"Can you tell my sister what your name is?" Yin Xinrou asked with a smile.
"Lin Xin's wish!" the boy smiled innocently, revealing two small tiger teeth. "Sister, the capital looks very funny!" the boy's eyes shone faintly. Every time he could only watch the children in the city play happily with their father and mother from a distance, he could never forget the taste of the rock sugar gourd there after eating it once. The look in the boy's eyes darkened when he thought of this. His mother said that when he grew up, he could go there to play, but he was twelve.
"Heart...... Wish?" Yin Xinrou muttered thoughtfully.
"That'...... Wait for my sister to come and see you when she has a chance in the future?" she didn't know if her promise would have a chance to be fulfilled, she only knew that the child in front of her needed to be comforted.
The boy nodded heavily. "In a few years, I will also go down the mountain to play with my sister!"
"Okay, then you will stand on the busiest street in the capital to find your sister!" Yin Xinrou said casually.
At this time, Yin Xinrou didn't know that her joking promise had affected a boy's life.
Bidding farewell to Lin Xinyuan, he jumped off the cliff with a piece of iron rope borrowed by his mother, and climbed the iron chain in mid-air with both hands, only to see the iron chain shake and the whole person hung steadily in mid-air, the whole movement was fast and accurate, and the boy who watched it was amazed, her movements were much more beautiful than those uncles.
Only Yin Xinrou herself knows how much courage she used to make this jump, not how difficult it is, but everything unknown under the cliff is terrifying, and the consequences of falling if you don't pay attention to it are not something you can imagine.
It's no wonder that the eldest lady was reluctant to let her take risks, and finally insisted on agreeing, not to mention that she was a fifteen-year-old girl, even a seven-foot man didn't have enough courage and agility, and he didn't dare to take this road down the mountain. With both feet on the cliff wall, the whole person slid towards the opposite mountain.
On the official road leading to the capital, twenty miles away, a carriage galloped by, the whip of the coachman rattling, and the horse's hooves brought dust everywhere it went. But at the time of tea, the carriage had already arrived at the gate of the city, and the soldiers guarding the gate had already retreated to both sides far away, and when they saw the signs on the carriage, all the soldiers knelt on the ground with a 'plop' sound.
The carriage did not stop at all, but ran more arrogantly. When the carriage entered the city, he got up from the ground and patted the soil on his body, secretly wondering what kind of wind was blowing today, and why the princes and grandsons ran out of the city one by one.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" shouted the coachman from afar. Hearing this, the people on the street quickly retreated to both sides to make way in the middle, for fear that they would not be affected if they did not dodge in time. In this era when life is cheaper than grass, if you are hit by a carriage, no one will redress your grievances. Because those who can sit in the carriage are basically either rich or expensive, ordinary people naturally cannot resist.
The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and soon came behind Yin Xinrou, seeing that she was about to hit her, Yin Xinrou felt a faint anger in her heart: Who drove the carriage so fast? Rather wait for three minutes than grab a second, it's easy to have an accident at such a fast speed, okay?
In her previous life, she often dealt with cases caused by traffic accidents, and she always felt sad and regretful whenever she encountered a car accident that broke up her family and separated her wife, so in her life, she hated two kinds of people the most: speeding and overloading.
He slid from the iron chain to the opposite side with a lot of effort, and walked the mountain road for more than two hours without stopping, and finally returned to the capital, and didn't even have time to sit down and take a breath before he met a person who didn't want to die on a horse, and Yin Xinrou's heart was galloping with 10,000 grass and mud horses. But she had to tell herself to be calm and calm, this was in ancient times! The consequences of angering the prince and grandson of which family were not something she could bear, even if she was not at fault, but she knew that this was not a society that convinces people with reason.
The anger in her heart flashed to the side quickly, but she still underestimated the speed of the ancient carriage and the number of people on the street, and at the same time overestimated the width of the streets in the capital, so there was such a situation: the street that was not too crowded was crowded because of the road in the middle made the people on both sides crowded together one by one, and the pedestrians who were used to all this dodged away early, only she was still standing in the middle of the road and couldn't squeeze into the crowd.
It's over, I'm going to die on the streets of this ancient city. Yin Xinrou turned her back to the carriage, hoping not to hurt the vital point.
"Woo ......" the coachman tried his best to hold the reins, the horse neighed and raised its front hooves and stopped in mid-air, as if it were as long as a century, the horse's hooves hit the ground, and the body turned sideways as if it was about to fall to the ground, but fortunately the coachman was a veteran, and a clever man moved to the other side, and the carriage staggered a few times before stopping abruptly. Even so, she was knocked to the ground by the car body and her arm was broken, and blood was gushing out along the cuffs, although she didn't want to die, but Yin Xinrou, who was in pain, only gasped for air.
Enduring the scorching pain, Yin Xinrou got up from the ground with her other uninjured hand holding down the injured arm, raised her head to look at the person driving, and saw a middle-aged man in his forties wiping the sweat beads on his forehead with his sleeve and glaring at him angrily, trembling his finger at Yin Xinrou and yelling: "You are looking for death!
"It's over, this girl is going to be out of luck. Before Yin Xinrou could recover from the fright just now, she heard someone in the crowd muttering quietly.
"But isn't it? I collided with the five princes of the current dynasty, so I paid it back?" the companion continued.
"You said it was the Fifth Prince?"
"Is it the fifth prince of Qin Yongyi, who is known as the 'young general'?"
"Yes, isn't there a chant written on the carriage?"
"That's really the end, I heard that the five princes of the war king are like mowing grass, this poor little girl, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape?" the speaker sighed and continued: "It's a pity that this flower-like appearance and slender figure. ”
There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, saying worried words, but the tone and expression clearly said, 'There is a lot of excitement to see'.
Damn! I'm so afraid of something!
Yin Xinrou felt a strong worry in her heart, although she had so many times, she couldn't stand the other party's power. Heart Yiheng: No matter, you can't kill me in broad daylight, adapt to the situation, give her time and she can always find a way to save herself. Thinking of this, I was not so scared in my heart, and raised my head high to look at the person in front of me.
'Bang', the curtain of the car was lifted from the inside, everyone opened their eyes and stretched their necks to watch, and a few people who liked to watch the excitement pushed each other but did not dare to get too close, for fear of being affected. The people at the bottom of the capital have rarely seen such a big man in their lives, and after all, they can't resist the curiosity in their hearts and surround them. Everyone was shocked by this.
I saw a noble and extraordinary boy in lilac brocade sitting on the carriage, and his handsome and extraordinary face was not moved at all because of the farce just now.
"Bold pariah, don't you kneel when you see the prince?" said the coachman.
Hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then "pounced", knelt on the ground and shouted, "Blessings to the prince!" The man in the car poked his head out to inspect the circle, and his eyes fell on the only woman standing.
The coachman shouted angrily: "Bold pariahs, why misbehave?"
Yin Xinrou found that she was the only one standing in a daze, she was not kneeling but not used to it.
"Old Mo, Hugh is rude. Yin Xinrou was about to kneel, but she heard the man in the car shout softly.
"Get up!" the man continued.
The crowd of onlookers didn't dare to gasp, got up from the ground and lowered their heads one after another.
The coachman still wanted to say something, but he was stunned by the master's warning eyes, and he held back the words that came to his mouth, and threw Yin Xinrou a resentful and jealous look, his master is always extraordinarily soft-hearted to women, especially beautiful women, although she is dressed in tatters, but she has a good temperament!
Yin Xinrou is about to cry, uncle, what are you jealous of me, are you sad that I was not killed directly or what?
"Give this girl some silver and let her go to the doctor by herself, let's go!" Waiting for herself to be condemned, the man's cold voice sounded in her ears, and at the same time, watching the man put the curtain down again, Yin Xinrou couldn't react for a while, and opened her mouth wide.
The coachman reluctantly took out the silver ticket and threw it on Yin Xinrou's body, snorted coldly, and shook the horsewhip and drove away, leaving the petrified crowd and Yin Xinrou, whose brain was short-circuited, standing in place.
Everyone thought to themselves: "Is this still the war king Qin Yongyi who killed the enemy like hemp, it can't be fake, when did this emperor and grandson be so polite to the common people?"
Gossip...... I can't believe it!
