Chapter 413: Song of Entering the Dynasty
Xiao Wu and Gu Minghe continued to hurry, and ten days later, they finally arrived at Chaoge City, the ----capital of the Great Shang Kingdom.
Xiao Wu rode on a horse, raised his eyes to look at the gray Chaoge City, and saw that the city was vast and boundless, the city wall was hundreds of feet high, and the long one could not see the edge, and it was as solid as a copper wall.
Flags fluttering in the wind were planted on the top of the city, and guards in black armor stood on the walls, all of them mighty.
In the hazy mist, a tall building that could be vaguely seen reaching into the sky, Xiao Wu guessed that this should be the pride of the Great Shang Kingdom ---- Star Picking Tower.
Chaoge Castle is surrounded by a wide moat, the river surface is covered with white and bright ice, and the moat is like a white ribbon, which makes the gray city more solemn and magnificent.
There is a very wide wooden bridge leading to the city, Xiao Wu and Lone Minghe dismounted at the head of the bridge, and walked towards the city with the flow of cars and horses, without encountering any inspection interception.
The two walked into Chaoge City, and Xiao Wu was immediately shocked by the bustle and prosperity in the city.
What a big country style!
Chaoge City really deserves the reputation of the first city in the world.
Originally thought that Fengcheng, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was already very large and prosperous, Xiao Wu now looks at it, whether it is from the size of the area, the size of the population, the degree of prosperity, the completeness of the items, or the beauty of the building......
Fengcheng and Chaoge City want to compare, but they are not the same.
"It turns out that I am really a caged bird, and I don't know ...... The world out there. ”
The lonely crane led the horse, turned his head to look at Xiao Wu, whose eyes were full of bright light, and suggested in a low voice, "Childe, find an inn...... Let's stay first, we have a lot of time to wander around."
"Good!"
The two walked along the street for a while, and Gu Minghe chose an inn called Xilaike to stay, washed up well, and rested for nearly half a day.
Towards the end of the evening, the lonely crane took Xiao Wu to find the famous local Qilinxuan Restaurant, wanting to reward Xiao Wu for his hard work all the way.
Xiao Wu and Gu Minghe both changed into cyan robes, and only a fur coat was draped outside, which made the two look like well-mannered scholars.
The two walked on the street, and saw that lights had been lit everywhere, and there were still crowds of people everywhere, and there was a lot of noise, Xiao Wu felt that the air in the city was not cold, and it was still carrying all kinds of fragrances.
After a cup of tea, the two walked into the Qilinxuan Restaurant, there was a hole in the building, which could be described as splendid, Xiao Wu was full of interest, and looked around with bright eyes.
I saw that the first floor was a hall, and there were many tables scattered around, and the tables were almost full.
In front of the first floor, there is a colorful stage that is decorated, and there are six thinly dressed dancers, who are stretching their sleeves and dancing.
Xiao Wu looked upstairs and saw that the upper part of the hall was surrounded by some private rooms half-covered by veils, and some beautifully dressed people could be vaguely seen.
Lone Minghe asked for a private room, Xiao Wu and Lone Minghe were sent directly to the second floor by the guys, and when they arrived in the private room, they felt the heat wave on their faces, and they each returned to the big room and handed over a buddy, and the two sat opposite each other in front of the desk.
Gu Minghe handed Xiao Wu a delicate scroll, and asked softly, "Childe, what do you want to eat!"
Taking the recipe handed over by Gu Minghe, Xiao Wu smiled and said, "Brother Gu, is your money enough for a meal?"
As soon as Xiao Wu's words fell, the guy who had been nodding his head and accompanying the smiling face, his face immediately turned into a look of disappointment and surprise, and his eyes looked at Xiao Wu in a daze.
The man was surprised that the little boy in front of him was so delicate, and his voice was as hoarse and ugly as a crow's cry.
The man was disappointed that he was receiving two poor ghosts, and it seemed that there was no hope of making tips for two people today.
The lonely crane looked at the snobbish guy and joked: "This way, there is a place to spend money...... No, alas, it's uncomfortable to hold back early, son, take care of yourself, you have a lot of money."
Both of them looked at the guy who was smiling like a dog's leg, and their eyes met again in mid-air, but they couldn't hold back, "Flutter!" laughed.
The guy was a little inexplicably laughed, grabbed the back of his head, and laughed silly.
The names of the dishes on the recipe were fancy, Xiao Wu was dizzy when she saw it, and she couldn't understand what it was, so she handed the recipe back to Lone Minghe.
"Brother Lonely, come on, it's too troublesome"
Lone Minghe smiled and took the recipe, and muttered to his buddy and ordered the dishes.
"This ...... This one...... And this...... One more pot, you ...... The best wine"
"Come on, two sons, please wait a moment."
Xiao Wu looked down at the performance on the stage downstairs through the staircase fence, and saw that the six dancers were all long and beautiful, estimated to be about the same age as herself, and danced very gracefully and charmingly.
Looking around, there are also many women as big as themselves, snuggling up to all kinds of men, toasting in a coquettish voice.
Xiao Wu's eyes were attracted by a pair of men and women hugging each other upstairs opposite, and found that the man's hand had reached into the woman's clothes, and suddenly felt that his face was warm and heartbeat, and he hurriedly looked away, and saw a woman in white who was dancing like a fairy coming up on the stage.
The woman in white sat behind the piano table and began to stroke the qin, and the sound of the piano flowed out of her fingertips, like the tinkling of mountain spring water......
The woman in white played very well, attracting many people to listen, and the building was suddenly a lot quieter.
Xiao Wu was also intoxicated, as if entering the mountain forest in spring.
The ten thousand rays of the morning light penetrate the thin morning mist and the tall trees, sprinkle the golden red light into the mountains, the spring water is bubbling with the golden light, the crystal dew hangs on the green grass and trees, the birds sing gracefully, and the breeze sends the fragrance of flowers, quiet and beautiful......
The lonely crane looked at Xiao Wu quietly, who had been deeply attracted by the sound of the piano, and felt that her intoxicated expression at this time was very similar to Xiao Wu's little master.
Xiao Wu was the most naughty when he was a child, but when he listened to Mu Bai Erwang playing the piano, in addition to dancing and mischievous, he was often so fascinated.
The two little dance flutes played very well, and the music added a lot of spiritual comfort to their bitter lives.
"Beauty! uncle...... Respect, you, one, cup"
In the midst of the beautiful and clear sound of the piano, it was suddenly disturbed by the vulgar sound of a big tongue.
Gu Minghe saw that Xiao Wu pinched a peanut, and with a flick of the two, the peanut hit the drunk lying on the side of the stage.
For the philharmonic, the drunkard's vulgar disturbance is undoubtedly like a cat's mouth, and it is strange that it does not cause the philharmonic to blow up, but others dare not speak out.
"Oops!"
With a scream, the drunk suddenly covered his cheeks and looked in the direction where the peanuts were shot.
The drunkard's angry gaze was met by a lonely crane with a fierce light that seemed to be able to kill.
The drunk man blinked his eyes, stunned for a long time, and woke up most of the time, he was covered by the cold of the lone crane, and suddenly lost his arrogance, he didn't know what he muttered in his mouth, and sat back in his place in a gloomy manner, and he didn't even have the courage to look at the lone crane again.
Maybe it's not strange to see how much, the woman in white looked like nothing had happened, and continued to play the piano as if no one was around.
Xiao Wu looked down at the woman in white, the corners of her mouth hooked up with a smile that seemed to be nothing, and she quietly enjoyed the melodious sound of the piano as if nothing had happened.
In the single room on the second floor opposite, a pair of cross-necked mandarin ducks that had been rolling in one place before had already sat up and were looking outside.
The man's eyes were very sharp, and he just saw something flying out of Xiao Wu's fingers, and when he heard the drunkard screaming, he immediately understood what was going on, and his eyes fell on Xiao Wu's big black eyes, and he never moved away.
Is that the girl?!?...... But those eyes ...... It's so similar!
On the man's bronze face, a pair of blue eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Xiao Wu without blinking until the sound of the piano was far away.
The man saw that the little dance was like a wood carving, and finally regained his agility, his big eyes flickered twice, and he glanced at the drunk man who was beaten downstairs, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a trace of contempt.
It's the most beautiful eyes!
The man hurriedly beckoned, in exchange for a sturdy guard with a scimitar, his eyes were fixed in the direction of Xiao Wu, and he explained in a low voice, "Bolang, go to the other side, listen, what did the two of them say?"
Glancing at Xiao Wu and Gu Minghe, who were talking, Bo Lang understood and responded in a low voice, "Yes!
