Chapter 47: The Temple Fair

Hou Xue hesitated for a long time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

He took someone's life in the blink of an eye, and he hesitated for her. Temple fairs are not allowed to carry weapons, that is too conspicuous, and even the guards will only carry personal daggers. And he has been wandering in Qingzhou since he was a child, and the weapon is his life, if he lets go of it, isn't it the same as letting go of his own life?

He sat on the pier and watched the crowd come and go, his brow furrowed even tighter.

Three days later, the Three Mile Bridge.

It is in response to the sentence "It is just the benefit of the spring of the year, and it is better than the smoke and willows in the imperial capital." "When she came at dawn, the catkins fluttered softly, as soft as her pale white gown. She stepped on the flat lake, and there was nothing behind her, as empty as the surface of the lake. She is as curious as a child, even if there is grass or flowers in a place, she thinks it is a scenery that she has never seen before.

There are already pedestrians on the road. It coincides with the temple fair, and many activities have started last night, so people often go out with their relatives and lovers on Thursday and May in order to enjoy a full day.

The old bridge was already crowded with people, and when she looked up and saw the figure she had been familiar with for a long time, she stood on tiptoe and shouted, "Here!

Hou Xue walked over.

For the first time, he walked so eagerly, while carefully observing everyone who walked past her, lest they pull out their daggers and plunge them into her soft chest. A woman as delicate as her may not even be able to stop a knife.

He came to the front and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Kingori looked at him, it was rare that she was not wearing armor, and she did not know if she was wearing light armor under the jet-black clothes, so she poked it between her index fingers.

Hou Xue said: "What are you doing?"

"I'm going to see if you really relax and enjoy the fair. She poked and poked, and found that it was his muscles, which were as hard as armor. He didn't even carry that silver spear. Jin Geli smiled softly, she just took Hou Xue's hand, "Let's go." ā€

"Where?"

"I don't know. She replied confidently, vaguely, there seemed to be such a scene between the old bridge with hundreds of miles of people: the unsmiling young man was led to the other end of the bridge by a peerless girl, and they grabbed each other's hands in the crowd, and the girl showed an angelic pure smile, and the young man just stared at her graceful back, and grasped his hand tighter.

No one noticed them.

It's like an ordinary pair of lovers, but he has never received such a beautiful grace, and he is led by her like a wooden man.

"Come on, Shuoyuan's specialty gourd skewers~" The hawker shouted, the bright red sugar gourd hung with wooden branches, especially popular with children, they pulled the corners of adults' clothes, "Give it to me, grandma give me some more to eat." ā€

"I'm going to eat it too. Jin Geri pulled the corner of Hou Xue's clothes, and the two approached and asked for a string each. "Well, it's sweet. The two sat on the cloth platform next to them, and Hou Xue just looked at the gourd in his hand. The jingori had already finished eating, and he was still in a daze. As far back as he can remember, the woman had given him such food.

He still remembered that it was sweet.

There were many nomadic clan vendors in the steppe near Dongge, and he remembered the cloudy sky, and the woman bought a string of gourds and placed them gently in the palm of his hand. She seemed to be smiling and crying, and she didn't know whether it was sad or happy, and she said, "Eat." ā€

The young Hou Xue tasted that taste for the first time, and he felt that it was the happiest taste in his life.

The woman said, "You can't eat too fast, just go in that direction, every ten steps to lick a bite, and when you're done, I'll appear." ā€

Hou Xue nodded, and kept taking steps towards the wilderness.

Even though the gourd melted, he still insisted on ten steps before licking it, and by the next night, the gourd skewers had been eaten.

He never saw the woman again.

A young man who had just learned to walk walked lonely in the wilderness, his carved cloth shoes rotten and his feet blistered, only to see for the first time a pile of corpses.

When he picked up the tattered spear from the corpse, he forgot the smell of the gourd strings.

Now, he's tasted it again, but he can't hate it anymore.

"Don't be in a daze, if you don't eat me, you'll ......" She had already bitten up, Hou Xue didn't dare to move, he was afraid that the bamboo stick would scratch her.

Jingori still has a "big" conscience, and she left a "small gourd". "Whoever makes you in a daze, food is also dignified. Jin Geri touched his little belly, "I'm so hungry, let's go drink and eat meat!"

In a hurry, the gourd string in Hou Xue's hand fell to the ground, stained with dust.

In the end, he still didn't have a chance to eat gourd skewers, so he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. There are many restaurants on the long street, and red lanterns are hung in front of each house, thinking that tonight every door will light the lantern and pounce on the red letter, and the whole long street will be dyed with red.

The tavern on the corner is deserted, but it is also crowded on such a special holiday.

The two of them sat down at a table and served fine wine with Qiong Qi.

Hou Xue drank a lot of wine and used all kinds of wine glasses, he could fill the wilderness with animal skins for spirits, or he could present dishes in the main hall to keep his brothers in the world drunk. In the past six years, he has been instructed by Tianxiang in spearmanship, and has spent a fulfilling and self-righteous time in the Pioneer Regiment of the Underworld. Looking at the imperial capital of the sea country, he felt at home for the first time.

Tianxiang said that he was old.

The bloody silver spear to which Cang Ming belonged was also in Hou Xue's hands, so the intention of this wise old man was already obvious. He did his best and spent six years cultivating the successor of Cangying, but this is a "Yoda". The Wanghai people respect pure blood, and mixed blood is cheap. An obvious mixed-race child like Hou Xue is as inferior to them as a pet.

Gingori blinked her sapphire-clear eyes, and she said, "You're not happy. ā€

Hou Xue tried to squeeze out a smile, and he said, "No, I've never been so happy, it's just that you don't have to care about me at all." ā€

Kingori said, "Why?"

Hou Xue said: "You are a young monarch and a saint, and I am a Yoda hidden in the dark. ā€

Jingori said, "So what?"

Hou Xue said: "You have to admit that some people are born precious, and a drop of their blood is worth tens of thousands of lives." ā€

Jin Geli listened quietly, because Hou Xue didn't say much, it was really not much, and what he said must be from the bottom of his heart.

A trace of loneliness crossed Hou Xue's eyes, and he said: "I am an executioner, the devil in their mouths, if others see me with the holy woman, what will they think?"

"Who cares about them?" Jin Geli said slightly angrily: "Like is like, hate is hate, how can people betray themselves?"

Hou Xuedao didn't see anyone who betrayed him, so he took another sip of wine.

The streets are full of apricot blossoms.

In March, red and white apricots are intertwined. A ray of warm light poured down from the glazed tiles, Tianxiang was packing his bags, and he only left a letter and the "Evidence of the Underworld" that he had worn for more than ten years.

If a person is old, is he getting closer and closer to death?

Just like before the eagle dies of old age, they will fly into the sky for the last time until they die of exhaustion. All eagles die from falling from a height, not curling up in their nests and waiting to die.

A new era has arrived, and the direction of history will be in the hands of a new generation of heroes. No one can resist this wave.

The situation in Qingzhou is changing unnoticedly.
