The Wind Rises and Rises (11) All sounds are silent
The rain soaked through Hu Wei's clothes with mud and sweat, and he was now slumped on a half-charred plank, let the rain water.
Arson is easy to extinguish but difficult to extinguish, and the surviving civilian soldiers draw water from the river to the east to extinguish the fire, back and forth for an unknown number of times. Fortunately, the sky has eyes, and it rained in the evening. The battle ended in the afternoon, and the fire was roughly extinguished on the third watch day of the night. Look closely at the ruins and sparks.
Should be happy. But this Hu Wei's psychology is becoming more and more sour.
Since I have a memory, I have been stealing, learning art, and I have experienced the warmth and coldness of people in this small city. Some friends are in prison, and some are starving to death. With his eyes closed, Hu Wei can remember every alley, every building. Now they are all burned to ruins, and even the memories of the past have turned to ashes. The burned ash choked people, choking Hu Wei wanted to cry.
Hu Wei looked around, and there were many people sitting on the ruins around him, some of whom were missing arms. Some were covered in blood, and a group of people carried wooden planks from the city on the road cleared next to the ruins.
That's it...... That's it......
The sound of the piano came from nowhere. The music is somber and bitter. The melodious sound of the piano flowed through the broken ruins, and Hu Wei's heart became even more sour. The voice is colder than the rain and cooler than the wind. The sound of this piano beats the autumn wind for three points of loneliness, and retreats for three points of color of flowers and plants.
Hu Wei looked for a sound, and saw that under the moonlight, Li Ying was covered in blood, and his jade fingers were caressing the qin. I don't know a few wounds all over my body, my face is fair, coupled with blood loss, I have a sick look. When the moonlight shines, it is even more delicate. It turns out that the resolute and decisive female devil also looks like this.
Alas, Hu Wei opened his mouth and wanted to write a whole line of poetry, but unfortunately he didn't know a few big characters, and his mouth was closed again.
Taking advantage of the moonlight, Hu Wei looked at Li Ying's lowered eyes and was a little fascinated. Seeing that Li Ying's usual sharp eyes softened, the veins in her eyes were affectionate, and her willow eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. Hu Wei felt that these facial features looked so good-looking, she was really handsome. It's a pity that he is dressed as a man, if it is ............
After watching it for a long time, he felt that someone patted him on the shoulder, and Hu Wei, who was annoyed by "tsk......", smashed his mouth. Turning his head, Fang Xu's hateful little eyes narrowed into a slit, and he looked at himself with a grin. The more I look at it, the more annoying it becomes.
"Brother Hu, what about enjoying the scenery? The beautiful scenery under the moon is very beautiful~"
"Shhh...... Niu Nose can't speak, shut up, steal your two money and make trouble for me, bad luck. ”
In the corner they didn't see, Li Ying sneered.
A few months later, the emperor conferred the reward. Each sect issued three boxes of official silver, and the old monk and Taoist priest didn't say anything, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but rise. The group of bastards picked up a silver ingot and kissed directly.
Xiao Erlang, Hu Wei, Fang Xu rewarded one hundred taels of gold, there was originally an official, Fang Xu's monk didn't love officialdom, and then remembered Cai Jing's decisive refusal. Hu Wei wanted to be an official, but the Song Dynasty officials wanted to check whether the three generations of clans had a reputation, this has no father or mother, and he is still a thief, so he naturally has no official status. Xiao Erlang kept filial piety at home for three years. It is also the resignation of the seal.
On this day, Hu Wei drove a carriage and said to Fang Xu: "Alas, Niubi, will you go with me?" ”
Fang Xu narrowed his eyes and wondered, "Where are you going?" ”
"This Fengzhou is poor, no one steals it, let's exchange the gold for silver tickets, go to the south to buy some timber and livestock, come back and sell it, and make some money."
"Oh...... I've been a thief for more than 20 years, and I'm going to wash my hands of gold? ”
"You don't understand, pour some money, find a magistrate, buy an official, the emperor is not a small official. Whole good net worth. ”
"Shhh...... Brother Hu, what kind of evil wind have you suffered? Fang Xu squinted and blinked, "Oh, I understand, eldest brother, you want to change your net worth, isn't it the eldest lady of the Li family who is a high climber?" ”
"Go, go, why can't Niu Bi say a personal word. Tell you whether love will come or not, give the thief's grandfather a bodyguard, let's give it to you at a fair price, and add a brother price of six cents, how about it? ”
"Hehe, if you don't come, you won't come in vain. What about Second Brother Xiao? ”
He ............ Alas, let him be quiet first, Lao Tzu let people slaughter him, and it will be uncomfortable for anyone. ”
"Okay, let's go!"
