Xu Chunhua did not come back today.

At least, after Chen He finished selling tofu, he didn't see the small town girl waiting for him in the alley where the morning spring breeze was blowing.

Chen He thought to himself, maybe it was because his business was exceptionally good today and sold out early.

So there was no rush for a while, slowly pushing his Tianyan car, rolling the stone slabs in the alley and squeaking.

This wheelchair car produced in the Hanging Courtyard of Nanyi City finally began to loosen a little bit in Chen He's journey of wandering around the world.

Chen He decided to repair it himself one day, so as not to fall apart on the road, and scattered all the tofu he had bought in a tender tofu shop in Huaidu after looking for a long time.

Although there is better tofu in the town of Celestial Town, where the grass is a firefly, it is too much trouble after all.

When Chen Huaifeng was invited to eat that meal of iron plate tofu, he could naturally take it from Cao Weiying, after all, it was just a meal, and Chen Huaifeng would not ask where the tofu came from.

But it is not possible to do business in the human world.

Kamigawa's laws are very strict, especially when it comes to this kind of food.

Not to mention that this is Huaidu.

If Chen He's tofu is of unknown origin, it is naturally possible to go to prison.

The wheelchair trolley creaked and creaked.

Chen He was also thinking wildly.

Then stopped in front of the small courtyard, Chen He did not push open the door and walked in, but took out a food box in the corner of the wheelchair trolley, which was of course not leftover teppanyaki tofu.

It was Chen He who stayed early in the morning.

It was placed next to the Tianyan machine, and now it still has residual warmth.

But it was still very early, so Chen He was naturally not in a hurry, took it out of the car, and put it on his lap.

Although it is said that the body can be calm.

But sometimes thinking about something else can also calm a somewhat restless mind.

So when Chen He appeared in this alley and didn't see the small town girl in the floral dress, he began to think about a lot of other things.

Chen He, who was supposed to be an idle cloud and wild crane, looked down at the hot food box on his lap.

If it is cold and Xu Chunhua has not come back, he will go to find her.

So the food box was really cold.

Chen He didn't think about it this time, stood up, put the food box back in the car, and then walked into the courtyard, brought out a pot of water, opened the Tianyan machine inside, and poured the water into the iron kettle that had been burned dry a long time ago.

After coming to Huaidu, the wheelchair car, which he rarely drove, was rekindled.

Chen He got on the Tianyan car in the spring breeze, and since he learned that wonderful bending method from Caoweiying, it was such a narrow alley, and it was no longer difficult for Chen He.

The sound of Tianyanche is not noisy, and the whole Huai is in a kind of mechanical sound, which is naturally abrupt.

Chen He rode to the dust, and walked towards the Huaidu in the midst of the rotation and change.

......

"When will Your Majesty return?"

Li Chenghe, the squire of the Huaidu Military Department, stood in front of the gate of the heavenly prison holding a stove to resist the cold of the spring breeze.

Beside him, standing was a tall middle-aged man in a golden-striped black robe.

The Ghost Suppression Division established during the reign of Emperor Huai did not belong to the court system, but was a supervisory body directly under His Majesty.

The same is naturally true of the Heavenly Hell formerly known as the Ghost Suppression Division.

So the middle-aged man in front of him can be called an adult, or he can be called a prison master.

Archer willow white ape.

Because in his hand, he holds a bow of the Great Yi.

But in fact, the name of this Heavenly Prison Master is not Liu Bai Ape, but Liu Qinghe.

The world calls him by this name for a simple reason.

Because he is tall and likes white flowers.

Often standing on the side of the road, I will stop because of some small white flowers that bloom quietly on the corner of the street.

Coupled with the impression that the place of Heavenly Hell gives to the world, this makes the picture like a rude ape looking at the delicate beauty of the world.

That's why he got the name Willow White Ape.

People in Huaidu sometimes often doubt the relationship between Liu March, the former soldier of the military department, and Liu Baia.

After all, the name Liu Qinghe and Liu March really mean the same.

But in fact, Liu March has nothing to do with Liu Bai Ape.

Liu March is just a person from the world in the small town under the mountain of Qingtian Dao.

And Liu Qinghe.

is a demon in the world who has lived for some years.

The reason for this is that it is some years.

For the world cannot remember whether there was ever another prison master in this heavenly prison, which was always hidden behind a black wall and planted with tall white pear and apricot trees.

Although whether it is the name of Liu Bai Ape or the identity of the Heavenly Prison Master, it is easy for the world to think that this is a fierce and evil person.

But the world has forgotten that his real name is Liu Qinghe.

Therefore, under the black robe of the willow white ape, it is actually a gentle and elegant face with a smile all the year round.

"We don't talk about anything like that in the middle of the day."

Liu Qinghe smiled and looked at the long street in the world and said slowly.

Liu Qinghe kept his mouth shut about the demon clan, naturally he was not standing on the opposite side of Li Chenghe because he was a demon clan.

On top of the identity of the demon clan, the identity of the person who directly belongs to His Majesty's Heavenly Hell is naturally always above all else.

The old Lord Shangshu of the military department naturally understands this truth, so naturally he doesn't think much about it.

In fact, when Li Chenghe would come here to ask Liu Qinghe, it meant that this person was based on the existence between the two clans.

When Li Chenghe heard this, he also turned his head, looked at the demon clan and the people of the world walking through the streets, and said softly: "I'm not talking about the demon clan, it's just that Your Majesty has been away from the world for too long this time." ”

Liu Qinghe smiled slightly.

"What about Your Majesty's return?"

He looked at Lord Shangshu beside him.

"It's going to rain, and it's not something Your Majesty can decide. Is it also that Your Majesty should be like the Huangliang people, and reverently kneel down in certain places - rain, rain, don't it rain? ”

Li Chenghe said slowly: "When it rains, the price of umbrellas in the world will rise, and there will always be some people who can't afford to buy umbrellas, so they suffer from some cold and bitterness. This is because there is no one to restrain the merchants. ”

This is of course very reasonable.

So Liu Qinghe didn't refute, just raised his head and looked at the spring sky.

The sky wasn't clear, but it wasn't gloomy either.

"But it's not raining yet, Lord Li."

Li Chenghe coughed slightly twice and said, "The rain is always going to fall." ”

For the people of the world, the spring breeze is an extremely comfortable thing.

However, for such an old man, the spring breeze is not a different kind of chill.

That's why there is the term spring surprise.

Liu Qinghe didn't say anything more, just stood there quietly.

On the smooth and bright streets of Huaidu, all the demons were walking around, the high floors were stacked upward, and the cornices looked like some cedars with black snow.

So there are hanging bridges, air corridors, and platforms for looking at the moon in the sky.

The place where the two of them are located is very low.

Although it is meaningless to say high and low in Huaidu.

In the rotation of those buildings all over Huaidu, everything will become higher, watching the stars and the moon from a high place, and receiving rain and dew; It will also become very low, as if it has turned a piece of the world upside down, hidden in those dark underground cities that need to hang lanterns at all times.

"I don't know when His Majesty will return."

Liu Qinghe said such a sentence.

So Li Chenghe was silent for a long time.

"But Your Majesty will always come back."

Liu Qinghe looked at this magnificent capital with a slight smile, and there was a faint light in his eyes.

In fact, there are some things that the world has guessed correctly.

There is indeed some kind of connection between Liu Qinghe and Liu March - they will always religiously believe in this emperor of the world.

Li Chenghe said softly: "I'm afraid that at that time, the rain in the world was already very strong. ”

"Your Excellency."

Liu Qinghe turned his head to look at Li Chenghe and said softly: "It's going to rain, so there is an emperor in the world." ”

If it doesn't rain, everyone is the same, and life to death is a general trajectory.

So what makes them need to have a majesty on earth?

The two looked at each other silently.

There was a small white umbrella walking quietly on the street.

"Yes."

Li Chenghe said softly.

Liu Qinghe turned his head and looked at the girl under the umbrella who was walking quietly among the demon clans.

"Your Majesty will not let his world become what he doesn't like."

Kamigawa's human world is naturally very good.

The world thinks so, too.

People come and go on the long streets.

But not all of them walked attentively.

There are always some people who wander around the ground.

After all, in front of the gate of Heavenly Hell, there stood a Liu Bai Ape and Li Chenghe.

Such a picture is naturally eye-catching.

Huaidu is not a fake capital.

This ancient and vibrant majestic city located in the north of Huai'an, those who stand on a high place are naturally eye-catching.

But Li Chenghe and Liu Qinghe said it very easily.

Even if the entire demon clan in Huaidu looked at it, they didn't seem to have anything that couldn't be said.

Those are all things that can be said and have nothing to do with the demon clan.

In the spring breeze in the world, there was indeed some rain gradually, Liu Qinghe asked the people from the heavenly prison to take an umbrella out, and escorted the adult holding the stove in the spring breeze all the way away, and then he turned his eyes to the people on the long street, and said with a smile: "Are you done?" ”

No one answered.

It's just that gradually, there are fewer pedestrians on this long street.

The smile on Liu Qinghe's face gradually decreased, and there was also some solemnity in his eyebrows.

Naturally, he didn't know where His Majesty had gone and when he would return.

It's just a lot of things, obviously not as easy as he himself says.

Everything is actually just like what Li Chenghe said.

The world with His Majesty and the world without His Majesty are two completely different worlds.

It's just that Li Chenghe forgot something.

At the beginning, Liu Qinghe had already reminded the old man.

It's a pity that Li Chenghe is really old, after all, he is just a world, and sometimes his thoughts are inevitably confused.

Standing on such a long street, even if it is not midday, there are some things that cannot be said.

For example, the whereabouts of His Majesty.

The world has probably never experienced such a thing.

In the world of hundreds of years, there is a majesty who has lived for more than a thousand years.

Then their majesty disappeared without explanation.

If this was just a human emperor, for such a long time, a new emperor would have been set up a long time ago.

But in the world of Kamigawa, no one dares to do this.

As a result, Huaidu, the city of the machine, the hub of the whole world, follows all the previous inertia.

That's sometimes a good thing.

Sometimes nature is a bad thing.

......

Chen He also got lost.

At the time of the handover of the rule of the demon clan and the rule of the undeclared world.

In the midst of that great sound of rotation.

After a moment, Chen He didn't know where he was now. He was still running on the streets with those eaves and sparse shadows in the world, looking for traces of Xu Chunhua everywhere.

In the blink of an eye, the whole person appeared between the suspended bridges in the air, as if the bamboo shoots that were broken out of the mountain forest were pushed up in the spring breeze and spring rain.

Those long streets with neat stone slabs, under the operation of the power of the machine, held up the world in the spring drizzle.

Chen He stopped the car and stood on the edge of the sky building and looked down.

The tall buildings in the world are towering, like the distant mist and green mountains.

This rare spring rain is like a dense sea of clouds, separating the world from the world.

Chen He sometimes really doubts, can people living in such a capital city really find their own location accurately?

Chen He stood by the raised guardrails on the side of the street, took an umbrella from the car, and looked around.

Such a rain made the supposed splendid and beautiful Huaidu into a vast cloud river.

This made it even more difficult for Chen He to find Xu Chunhua - he seemed to have indeed gone up to the next level and was supported by the world.

In the spring rain, some streets are upward, while others are downward, and everything is shining in a hoarse light.

Chen He looked for a long time, then sighed, sat back on Tianyan's car with an umbrella, picked up the iron plate tofu left for Xu Chunhua and ate it.

Because if you don't eat it, it really won't taste good.

People sometimes naturally have things to seek, and there are things to stick to.

Chen He has become accustomed to his sizzling tofu being the best in the world, and if it becomes unpalatable, it is indeed a very bad thing.

Spring rain is dripping.

When Chen He was sitting there eating teppanyaki tofu with an umbrella, someone stopped in front of his car.

It is Xu Chunhua wearing a floral skirt and holding a small white umbrella.

The little floral dress of this girl from Qingtiandao Town has been wet from the spring rain and is sticking to her calf - the little white umbrella is very white, but it is also very small, and the small umbrella can sometimes cover the snow, but it can't cover the rain.

Because snow is light and gentle.

And the rain is ethereal and rapid.

Chen He looked at Xu Chunhua's appearance, stood up from the car, swallowed the sizzling tofu in his mouth, and asked a little nervously while breathing a sigh of relief.

"Did you find him?"

Xu Chunhua didn't answer, just stood under the little white umbrella, looked at Chen He's embarrassed appearance in the rain, and said with a complicated expression: "Why are you here?" ”

Chen He sighed, handed the box of tofu in his hand that had been reheated by the heat of the Tianyan machine to Xu Chunhua, and said, "I am a little relieved that you haven't come back since you went out today." ”

Xu Chunhua was silent for a while, raised her hand and stroked the wet hair around her ears - Chen He subconsciously thought that if Chen Huaifeng saw this scene, he would probably be very moved.

The small town girl took the food box in Chen He's hand, looked at the green onions that were about to turn yellow and wilted, and then said softly: "I didn't find it." ”

Chen He took the little white umbrella in her hand and comforted her, "It's okay, it's a long time coming." ”

Xu Chunhua ate the small piece of tofu that Chen He didn't finish, and said in a very low and soft voice: "I'm lost." ”

Chen He held two umbrellas, stood on the hanging street of Huaidu in the spring rain and clouds, and said with a smile: "When we are all familiar with Huaidu, it will be fine." ”

Xu Chunhua stood quietly under the umbrella, and the floral skirt was blown off her calves in the spring breeze and spring rain, and flew chaotically in the hanging streets of Huaidu.

That piece of tofu is finished.

Of course, there will not be a lot of sizzling tofu.

Such a strong snack is naturally suitable for eating a little, but not a lot.

If you have more, you will linger for a short time, and finally become greasy.

After the small town girl finished eating the piece of tofu, she turned her head and looked at Chen He, who was seriously looking at Huaidu in the rain, trying to write down the buildings bit by bit.

This time she didn't say the answers that were always staggered, as if the preamble didn't match the afterword.

Just watched quietly.

"Chen He."

Xu Chunhua suddenly turned her head a little sadly, looking at Huaidu that stretched out in the distance in the spring rain.

Chen He turned his head and looked at the woman beside him.

"You say, if the senior brother named Chen Huaifeng actually deceived us, Xiyu is not in Huaidu.......

Xu Chunhua's words didn't seem to be finished, and it seemed to be finished.

Chen He thought for a long time, and then said very seriously: "Senior Brother Chen is not that kind of person. ”

Xu Chunhua lowered her head under the umbrella and looked at the bottom of the hanging street, below which was a street like a gap between the black cedars, the street was dripping with rain, and everyone was like a small, crowded mushroom in the spring.

Xu Chunhua didn't speak for a long time.

It wasn't until the temperature of the food box in her hand gradually disappeared that the small town girl raised her head, hid a lot of emotions, and looked at Chen He beside her with a smile.

"Can your Tianyan car still walk?"

Chen He said with a smile: "When I came out, I filled it with water, and it will definitely not dry up for a while." ”

Xu Chunhua smiled and said, "Then take me to take a good look at the most magnificent and strange capital in the world." ”

Chen He turned his head to look at this amazing Huaidu, and said in amazement: "Actually, I don't think it can be described as magnificent now. ”

Xu Chunhua said curiously: "What is that?" ”

Chen He laughed softly: "Miao, vast, vast. Yunchuan." ”

Xu Chunhua stood under the umbrella and thought for a long time, and nodded approvingly.

Neither of them said the previous story.

The faint voice of Tianyanche, which seemed very faint in the dull sound of the machine, sounded again above the hanging street.
