Chapter 575: The Tiger Roars Chang'an
Boom β
The morning sun has not yet shone on the clouds, the rain clouds are black and oppressive and fill the sky, the dull thunder rolls in, on the official road with few shades, the Hu merchants and Central Plains traders who come and go to the Western Regions and Chang'an are endless, and the orchid who yearns for the prosperity of the Central Plains sits on the fence bucket car, hears the thunder, and talks about it, and the man who drives the car follows and looks up, and then shouts.
"It's going to rain, hurry up and go to the front to find a place to take shelter from the rain. β
"Got it, brother in the back, work hard!!"
For a time, the shouting and screaming resounded, several chariots in the hands of more than ten people pushed and pulled, roaring past countless times of the road, soon, the rain fell down, even the rain line, no one noticed that a huge goshawk crossed this rain curtain, gathered its wings and descended to the nearby forest, a moment, a little boy wearing a Taoist robe, barefoot ran out.
In the direction of running, there were quite a lot of vendors hiding from the rain on the official road, and several wheels were crowded together, and the men and women who were driving the cars were drenched in heavy rain, pushing the car body out of the pothole.
"One, two, work hard!"
"Big pillar, what are you doing, work hard, let the old lady move, you should move!"
When the stout woman turned around, she saw the man in the cart looking at something out of the road, and she looked away, and in the vapour, a little boy was standing on the side, soaked in moisture, and was staring at them blankly.
"Yo, where is the child, child, come over quickly, where are the adults in your family?"
Qingfeng wiped away the rain rolling on his face, shook his head, and said in a childish voice quite aggrieved: "There is no adult, the only master is lost...... I'm lost, big sister, can you take me to Chang'an? I'm not familiar with the road outside. β
"Hurry up, hurry up, what to see?!"
The man driving the car turned around and urged, and the woman who heard the word 'sister' glared at her husband fiercely, and the latter shrunk his neck and sat back without saying a word.
"Come, get in the car with my sister, we also happen to go to Chang'an. β
The woman went over and picked up the boy, looked at his handsome little face, stretched out her hand and pinched him, took him in her arms, and put him in the cart.
"Little doll, you have to sit tight, the car is shaking, be careful to fall down. The guy on the side saw that he was well-behaved, and he kindly told him a few words, and he pushed the car forward with the shopkeeper.
In the groaning of the squeaky wheels, the body of the car rose and fell, and the breeze sat between the piles of goods and swayed, and the obedient and sensible took a piece of oilcloth paper to cover the top of the woman's head, although it was of no great use, but it made the accompanying merchants and men feel very good.
After avoiding a heavy rain at the rest shop, staying until almost noon, and then returning to the road, the men in the car on the way had snacks in their pockets, and they would also take out some and stuff them into this cute little Taoist boy, teasing and joking, but it was not so boring.
In the afternoon, after entering the boundary of Chang'an, the heavy rain gradually stopped, the sunset pierced the clouds and sprinkled the afterglow, on the winding official road, the breeze stood on the shaking and shaking body, holding the fence and looking ahead, occupying the field of vision, is a huge city that stretches out in the glow.
His mouth was all O, the only time he went out of the boundless mountains was only within a hundred miles, and he had never seen the greatness of the prosperity of the world.
This is what the master often said about the world. β
Gradually, the noisy west gate of the giant city appeared, and the passing cart stopped, and the villain hurriedly jumped down from it, bowing his hand to the kind merchant and his wife.
"Big sister, that's it, Qingfeng knows the way!"
"Well, if you can't find it, come out to look for me again, and we'll be out of the city for two days. β
"Hmm!"
Qingfeng pursed his mouth, shook his hair and nodded, then spread his little feet, and quickly ran to the queue to enter the city, looked at the hour, and then looked at the long dragon lined up in front of him, rolled his eyes, walked to the corner of no one, and suddenly raised a little smoke, turned into a blue bird, chirped twice, flapped his wings and flew up to the city, crossed a group of patrol soldiers, stood above the banner of the exhibition, blinked the bird's eyes, reflected the rows of houses, high-rise buildings and low pavilions, and came from a piece of noisy and noisy human voices.
'Wow~~'
Holding back an exclamation, the soldier standing under the banner said, "Huh?", subconsciously raised his head, and a cyan afterimage had already flown out.
The feathers trembled slightly in the wind, the bluebird drew down the city wall, in the blinking bird's eyes, the houses were clearer in the line of sight, the streets and alleys were intertwined and orderly, the people who disturbed and shouted were surging, the old man pushing the wheelbarrow called his grandson who had entered the city with him to look at the road, the vendors in the stalls shouted loudly, and a group of men who looked noisy around the wooden platform applauded the orchid who showed his waist and threw away copper coins.
Ji~~
The birds chirped excitedly, flew down the sky and fell into the crowded streets, stopped at a treetop, and looked curiously at the bustle of the world that they had never seen before.
......
The setting sun shone on the roofs of the houses, in the southeast of the city, the lake reflecting the glow of the sun was sparkling and flowing, and in the Taoist temple with the terrain rising in the distance, Lu Liangsheng, who was sitting in the shade of the tree holding a book and flipping through it, raised his face, waved away one hand, and put away the law.
At the same time as the wandering rain clouds dissipated, Lu Liangsheng took the book away from his cuffs, got up and looked to the west, and Hong Lian, who was sleepy with his chin on his side, woke up.
"Childe, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, a little guy is in town. β
Hong Lian didn't know Qingfeng, and she had only heard about the Master of Wuyuan in general, and she was a little curious about who the little guy in Gongzi's mouth was.
"It's called Qingfeng, and it just makes a pair with Mingyue......"
Lu Liangsheng smiled, thinking of the little boy, and I don't know if Lu Yuan deliberately took the name like this, and when he smiled, he suddenly frowned slightly.
Turning back to Hong Lian, he said, "I'll take a look." β
As he spoke, the scholar stepped away, and his figure disappeared in the blink of an eye, and then he showed his figure, which was already outside the mountain gate.
"Didn't you ask him to repair the five-color village, how could he come to Chang'an......
At the same moment when Lu Liangsheng was thinking, in the noisy market in the west of the city, the voices of people were lively, and the vendors who set up stalls were holding a piece of sesame oil shortbread out of the pot, and a green shadow flashed in front of him, and the cake in his hand disappeared in an instant, and he heard the sound of the table next to him.
"Ouch, where did a bird come from, the oil splashed me. β
"Look at it eating bread, hey, what a clever bird. β
The customer, who paid the money and didn't get the cake, shouted, "Grab it!"
A few tables of diners rioted, the bird is not unseen, the bird that snatches the cake in the hand of the person, but it is rare, a person nearby with his dexterity spread his arms and pounced on it, the bird suddenly grabbed the cake and flew to the long street, was about to fly up to the roof, among the people who watched the excitement, someone grabbed a flat pole and slammed it over.
Twittering!!
The blue bird flew away with a flat pole, and slammed into the people on the long street, feeling a little panicked, and instantly turned into a wild cat and ran wildly.
"This world is so dangerous, why don't you just eat a cake, so many people eat it, why don't you give it to me?!"
Shuttling through the feet of passing pedestrians, he flashed into the nearby alley with a cake in his mouth, and was about to change his human form, when suddenly several shadows reflected the sunset and elongated, covering it.
A few yellow dogs bared out their canine teeth, stared at the spotted cat in front of them and roared lowly, and were driven all the way by the breeze, and felt a little annoyed, people want to chase me, and you beasts dare to be fierce at me!
The cat bowed, the smoke exploded, and the yellow dogs barked a few times, and the next moment, they whimpered and picked up their tails, and kept retreating on all fours, and then, turned around and ran to the nearby courtyard gate in the alley and stretched out their claws to scratch wildly.
The smoke surged, and suddenly a tiger roar of "roar-" resounded, startling the yellow dogs directly urinated, spreading their limbs and whimpering outwards, and on the long streets on both sides of the outside, the pedestrians and people who came and went were also shocked by the tiger roar and trembled subconsciously, and countless people turned pale.
"Did you hear that?"
"That'..... Over there....... In the alley, there are tigers. β
"In Chang'an City, where did the big worm come from, it must have been misheard...... bar. β
The word 'bar' dragged a long note down, and in the dark alley in the distance, a pair of bright yellow lights swayed, and in the ears, there was a heavy object stepping on the ground and making a heavy and muffled movement, mixed with a low whistle at the same time, a colorful tiger with overlapping soles slowly showed a terrifying figure.
The man who spoke just now was so frightened that he almost jumped up on the spot and screamed.
"There's a tigerβ"
turned around and ran, around, the pedestrians who were originally curious to stop, also shouted in surprise at the moment when the person turned around and ran, ran wildly, crashed into the stalls, the items were overturned and spilled, the vendors holding the soup pots were squeezed and swayed, and the soup splashed on the faces of others.
For a time, chickens and dogs jumped on the entire long street.
