"Who's making a fuss here? What the hell is going on? ”

In the distance, only a few clippers were speeding towards the water network and rivers, fully equipped with armaments and a majestic military flag on them. It turned out that their movements had alarmed the military camp "Nanhuwei" guarding the waterways of the capital.

When the ship docked, a column of armor came in, all wearing light pulp armor, flexible in action, and would not sink to the bottom if dropped in the water, which was suitable for the needs of water warfare.

"The little one is the director this time, it's just a big kite, I just accidentally fell off, I don't know you?" Ren Chuanning reacted quickly, squinting his eyes and constantly scanning the front few sergeants.

"What is the matter with me," the sergeant's squad leader saw that his eyesight was impaired, and frowned, "Kite?" Flying such a big thing near the capital, have you declared the formalities? ”

As he spoke, the officer signaled to the people behind him that if anything was wrong, take it on the spot.

"Yes, yes, naturally there is," Ren Chuanning was fully prepared, and took out a bunch of materials from his sleeve, "This is the procedure of the Terracotta Division, this is the permission of the Lieutenant to seal it, and this is the certificate signed by Lord Li of the Yamen...... It's all here, I've already told you. Finally, there is a little bit of filial piety, which is convenient. ”

Along with these declaration documents, there was also a silver ticket handed over.

It seems that for this flight test, Ren Chuanning is indeed fully prepared and has thought of everything - except that they may really fall.

After the sergeant had verified that it was correct, there was nothing more to ask. The squad leader just said: "Since the report has been reported, quickly send someone to take away your pile of things, what is it like to have such a big tattered thing under the feet of the Son of Heaven!" Also, how did you guys get off? ”

"Oh, it's just that there was an accident in the sky, thanks to my brother...... Guy? What about you, brother? ”

Ren Chuanning looked left and right, even if he put his lenses in front of him, he couldn't see Qiu Shaohu in all directions.

……

Seeing that those sergeants were attracted, Qiu Shaohu quietly left.

When he entered Kangjing this time, he didn't want to attract too much attention, otherwise it would be an extraneous branch.

The movement in Chaomen was already too big, and Qiu Shaohu knew that someone must have gone to the capital to report the incident at this time. If you attract too much attention in the capital, you will be constrained in what you do.

In particular, in Kang Kyung, he still has several old people.

There was a fine rain in the sky, and it was close to the valley rain season at this time, and the precipitation was abundant. Walking along the path outside the city, between the two sides of the road, the green young leaves surround the buds, half-concealed and shy.

Fresh and pleasant, lingering with a rich aroma and a long aftertaste.

Qiu Shaohu walked here, suddenly stopped, looked around, and showed a feeling of nostalgia, "Unexpectedly, I'm back here." ”

While thinking, according to the path in his memory, Qiu Shaohu was familiar with the road, walked freely through the trail, and walked forward quickly.

He was naturally familiar with this place, and he had lived here for a long time from his childhood to his youth. Every inch of land, every path, he used to run in play as a child.

At that time, the sky was always blue, there were endless fish and shrimp by the river, behind the grass seemed to be another world, and around the woods was a new world waiting for your adventure. There is a whole busy village behind the woods, every day I have enough to play, I am tired of playing, I can see the laughter of the neighbors when I go back, it is the eldest lady of the owner who makes new pastries and distributes them to herself, and the grandfather at the head of the village laughs and smashes the walnuts he picked up and eats them himself...... Everything is a happy time.

This is how he remembered his life as a child.

At that time, in his mind, as long as he crossed the last "hillside", it was his warm home.

The grass is damp and cool, and it is muddy to step on when it rains. It is barren on all sides, and it seems that not a single inch of grass grows because it is often soaked in water. Qiu Shaohu stepped on the last small dirt slope and looked at the place where he had lived.

In front of me, there was only a rushing river, and in the cracked land, a whole collapsed riverbank washed down like a waterfall. Only the ruins near the river bank still show traces of the former habitation.

Everything is already wrong.

Qiu Shaohu now knows that his childhood memories have some beautification of his former life. In fact, the place where I lived here was not a "village". It's just that some displaced people who have lost their livelihoods, because of the flat terrain and easy access to water near the river, have all set up shacks here, and eventually formed a gathering point.

Every day, everyone's life is to bear the burden of survival, and try every way to satisfy themselves. Some went to the city to help the big families as helpers, and at the end of the day, they could exchange for a copper plate and two steamed buns, and some went directly to steal and rob, and then they were caught by the officials, and when they walked back to the shack here at night, they were already covered in bruises. If you are sick, you can still fight it. What if someone's child is sick......

The prosperous capital is next to it, but why does the prosperity of the capital have nothing to do with their group of people?

Looking at the surging water, Qiu Shaohu was silent and let the raindrops hit his body.

"If you get too close to a fast-flowing river, it's easy to fall." A voice suddenly reminded.

A fisherman in a cloak and hat sits by the river with a fishing rod in one hand. The angler looked to be over fifty years old, and his appearance was mediocre, and his expression was neither the pleasure of fishing nor the urgency of the fish that had to be caught. It seems that he can't catch it, but he does it casually.

"What about you?" Qiu Shaohu asked rhetorically, "Aren't anglers afraid of falling into the water when they are closest to the shore?" ”

"If you fall into the water, you are not afraid, because you are sheltered by the river jellyfish." Anglers are nonchalantly authentic.

"Jellyfish?"

Legend has it that the mother goddess who guards the river will help those who fall into the water, but any child who accidentally falls will be rescued by her merciful mother. Of course, I don't know if this old man will bless me if she falls into the water. ”

"It should be." Qiu Shaohu was silent for a while, and said: "Loving motherhood is treated equally. ”

"And it's only here that you can catch fish." The angler pointed to the waterfall-like waterfall, "The water flows through here, and the fish in the river are stunned, and it is easier to bite the hook." In other rivers near the capital, because there are too many people fishing, the fish are all learned and will not bite the bait. Only by taking advantage of the dizziness of the fish here can there be a chance to bite the hook. ”

"It seems that you are more concerned about whether you can catch a fish." Qiu Shaohu laughed dumbly.

"It doesn't matter if you catch it or not, but if you don't even have a chance, isn't it meaningless." Anglers see through.

In the midst of a deep groan, Qiu Shaohu opened his mouth and asked: "Dare to ask, ...... here"

He wanted to ask what had happened to the original gathering point. Even if there is only a group of poor displaced people here, they should not be as clean as they are now.

"You say this? The short answer is that they were all washed away by the water. The fisherman pointed to the place where the river bank collapsed and said casually: "Two years ago, it rained heavily in the capital, and the river water swelled, and the river bank was washed away, and the houses built by the people who originally lived here were swept away by the flood, so naturally there was nothing left." However, those people are fine, I heard that because the Heavenly Prison had observed that there would be disasters if the celestial phenomena changed before this, the emperor had the virtue of a good life, and sent those people to a safe place in advance. ”

"And what about them?"

"Who knows, maybe they're all gone. They didn't have a home in the first place, and they gathered here just because it was convenient, and now that the entire riverbank has been destroyed, there is naturally no need to stay. The angler put away his rod and said.

"Indeed," Qiu Shaohu slowly exhaled and said, "They are already homeless people, so they can naturally go anywhere." ”

The scattered people are the ends of the earth, and it is difficult to meet them again in this life. After all, the people who have lived together will never have the opportunity to see each other again. Even the place where he once lived, there is no trace left?

"It's going to rain heavily, so you should hurry up." The rain became more rapid, and the fisherman packed up his things and prepared to leave, "I heard that there have been many demons and evil spirits in the capital recently, and they are harming people everywhere, so you should be careful not to touch them." ”

After a kind reminder, the angler quickly left the place and disappeared behind the vast rain curtain.

Qiu Shaohu watched the other party leave, leaving only himself, still standing on the shore, motionless.

Reminiscing about the past, it seems that he has also turned into a sculpture in the torrent of time, standing in the eternal eternity.

Unconsciously, the starlight appeared, and the power of the star map intertwined with the vitality, outlining thin lines, depicting scenes of floating light and phantom in the same place where it had originally gathered in front of him. The sound is noisy, people come and go, the roosters croak in front of the door, the dogs bark behind the mountain, the smoke curls up, and the crowd talks...... The scene in the memory reappears in front of me as the last nostalgia.

With Qiu Shaohu's completion and the improvement of his realm, the star map shows more and more abilities. Originally, it could only show everything experienced from a single perspective, but now it can show everything that has happened as it is.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the silver beads scattered the illusory picture, and everything returned to barrenness.

Qiu Shaohu wanted to turn around and leave.

Suddenly, he saw a red shadow faintly appearing on the other side of the river, holding an umbrella and looking here.

Through the wind and rain, the figure of the girl in red seems to be an ethereal ghost. But Qiu Shaohu knew that she must have been preparing to come here from the beginning, just like herself, so she would stay here.

Gaze at each other.

"When the pearl fell into a line, you and I held umbrellas face to face, although we were close at hand, we couldn't see each other's faces clearly."
