Thousands of miles into the capital Chapter 50 Brother Li, I can be regarded as finding you.
Lu Youjing looked at the envelope, his eyes were no longer nostalgic, and he put the envelope completely into his clothes and attached it to his chest.
He grinned and said with a smile: "Don't look at it for the time being, let's go, where are we going now?" ”
Lao Dao looked at the other party, laughed evilly, and said loudly: "The prison in the capital." ”
Lu Youjing was shocked, and without waiting for him to react, Lao Dao carried one in his hand and disappeared into the night.
Outside the Imperial City Palace, near the palace wall, there is a corner tower.
This is the Heavenly Prison, the prison directly controlled by the Son of Heaven, which is a forbidden place, in which all important prisoners are held, and ordinary people commit crimes and are detained in the capital government.
You can't really enter this place without any identity.
On the street outside the prison, the figures are sparse, and there are basically no people in sight, and it is silent, which makes this street appear more solemn and majestic.
A person who has no one during the day is even more unmanned at night.
But this street, except for a few large lanterns hanging on the hanging beams at the entrance of the prison, illuminated brightly, the rest of the place, extremely dark, looks even more eerie.
For a while, it was not clear whether the bottom of the light was hell or the end of the darkness was the world.
On one side of the entrance of the prison, there is a small stall, selling dumplings and white fungus red date soup, the stall owner is a man and a woman, looking in their forties, thinking that they are a couple.
Under the illumination of the light, the white mist rising from the pot churned upwards and disappeared into darkness.
The old couple gathered around a pot, whispering in a low voice, and kept busy in their hands.
There were several tables, chairs and benches next to the stall, Li Junshen was dressed in a red robe and found a table to sit down at random, he was now the only customer on the stall.
Li Jun concentrated his breath, stretched out two fingers and tapped on the tabletop, a clear voice sounded, and a pair of eyes stared back and forth at the door of the prison, waiting for the old Taoist to come here to rob the prison.
"Little boy, your bowl of dumplings and red dates and white fungus soup is here." The old woman carried a wooden plate on which were Li Junshen's dumplings and white fungus soup.
Li Junshen looked at the old woman and said, "Thank you!" ”
The woman smiled politely at Li Junshen, did not turn to leave, but pulled out the bench and sat down, looking at Li Junshen without speaking.
Li Junshen, who was a little hungry, just glanced at the woman, then lowered his head and ate the dumplings in the bowl by himself.
"The dumplings have thin skin and a lot of meat."
Li Jun commented from the bottom of his heart, it seems that this old couple is a kind-hearted person.
A bowl of dumplings was eaten by Li Junshen a few minutes later.
He wiped the corners of his mouth, raised his head, and asked the woman sitting on the side, "Auntie, why haven't you come home in the middle of the night?" There aren't many people in this place! ”
Li Junshen, who was idle, chatted with the woman.
"Little boy, I want to ask the old woman, why did you set up a stall at the gate of this prison, right?" The woman's face was wrinkled, but her eyes were clear and kind.
Li Junshen nodded.
The woman smiled and said, "The old woman's son is here on an errand." She pointed to the prison next to her, the corners of her mouth raised with pride.
"The child is on an errand in it, and there are a lot of things in the middle of the night in the prison, not to make money, but to think that when he is idle, he can have a bowl of hot dumplings to eat, so that he will not go hungry.
The woman said truthfully.
"From the day to now, my aunt's body is so tough!" Li Junshen raised his thumb and praised the woman.
The woman shook her head again and again, waved her hand and said: "The little boy said that he laughed, those officials and masters in this place want to come over during the day, but they can't set up stalls in this place, blame it, it doesn't matter if you beat the old woman and a few big boards, I'm afraid it will affect my son's career." ”
She continued: "On weekdays, it's only one or two hours. ”
When Li Junshen heard this, he said happily: "That kid is in a hurry, my aunt's dumplings, I have nothing to say." ”
It's lucky, otherwise you'd have to go hungry.
The woman saw that Li Jun was handsome and looked extremely festive, she asked suspiciously: "Little boy, you are not at home in the middle of the night, why did you come here, just now the old woman saw that you have been staring at the gate of the prison, but did the adults in the family commit an accident?" ”
Li Junshen's dress, at first glance, is not ordinary people, the rich children who can still walk here in the middle of the night, in the eyes of the woman, most of them are the adults in the family who have committed crimes.
Otherwise, who would come to such an obscure place.
The woman looked at Li Junshen with pity, and said in a low voice: "If the little boy, if there is any letter you want to hand in, the old woman can help you find a way." ”
Li Jun listened to the woman's kindness, but he didn't seem particularly surprised, he had been wandering the streets and alleys of Xining County since he was a child, and he naturally understood the abilities of ordinary people.
He took a sip of the red date white fungus soup in the bowl, held a red date in his mouth, and chewed it carefully.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you for your kindness, the kid just came to take a look, but he didn't have any other ideas." ”
Li Jun thought about it for a while, if Dad was really locked up here, that mosquito would not be able to fly in.
"Old woman, I'm ready to go home." The old man wiped the sweat from his head and shouted as he stood next to the packed cart.
Li Junshen picked up the bowl and poured the last bit of soup into his mouth, he stood up and said to the woman: "Auntie, don't bother you to clean up the stall, it's too cold this night, you should be careful along the way and get home safely." ”
The woman smiled apologetically at Li Jun: "Child, you should also go home early, although there are not so many bad people in the world who dare to come out to do evil, but don't be infected with the wind and cold." ”
The old couple pulled the cart and walked slowly towards the dark place.
Li Junshen stood on the street and watched the two leave, looked at the two guards guarding the gate of the prison, shook his head and muttered, "It seems that the old way is lying to me." ”
Lu Youjing was taken by Lao Dao to fly into the sky, just like Chen Tianwen at the beginning, he was taken aback, this cold wind was too violent.
He had only one thought in his heart: next time, he didn't want Lao Dao to fly with him.
It's really not something that ordinary people can bear, he remembered that during the day, he still thought that Uncle Wei's martial arts were the same as the old way, and he flew into the sky with himself, coming and going without a trace, and after the real experience, he felt that people have a pair of feet, which are used to walk, and flying around is not something that a fool can do?
The three of them stopped and walked along the way, there was no way, the old road didn't know the road at all, so he could only ask Chen Tian on the roof, where to fly, and then started again, the three's flying journey.
"Brother Li, I can be regarded as finding you." A miserable sound sounded in the night sky.
