Volume 2: Catching the Cicada Chapter 37: Yesterday's Broken Grounds

"City of Miracles", Nanshi Street.

This is the most prosperous place in the imperial city, in addition to the bright commercial streets, most of the people who live are rich and powerful, but not yet the status of the gentry of various ethnic groups.

A few months ago, a house in the south-west of the city changed hands, and the owner did not show up, but arranged for several maids, servants, craftsmen, etc., to spend a lot of money to repair it for a month, and then quietly moved in a young woman one day.

The "Ministry of Health" is responsible for all organ information, intelligence and security matters, and it is said that such a trivial matter of buying and selling a house will not alarm the ministry. However, with the principle of prudence, the leader of the "Ministry of Health" who was in charge of intelligence collection on Nanshi Street was upright, and he still went to investigate it himself before the records were filed.

After investigating for most of the day, I found that the owner of the house was very mysterious, and he had never appeared from beginning to end, from buying and selling to hiring servants to repairing, and the person who handled it was just a middleman, and it was actually Lai Jiuye, who was known as the "underground king".

After thinking about it carefully, Zhizheng, who has always been straight-hearted, simply found Lai Jiu and asked. has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and can be called the king in the underground realm of the imperial city, Lai Jiu is naturally not a mortal. He simply sent someone to explain a few words, "It's all a favor for a friend", "Who is a friend? You can't ask?" and "I really want to know if you go ask the little lady", and he sent him away.

If it was changed to a clever point, I would basically know it in my heart, but the big-headed soldier turned into a secret agent and went back to think about it, no, this can't be in the file! So he really went into the house in the middle of the night to investigate.

Take a closer look, hey, I found that this little lady was actually a Chun Er head card launched by "Yufang Pavilion" some time ago. Now it is clear that this top card is said to have been directly redeemed by a high roller on the night of its launch.

Although "Yufang Pavilion" is not the largest Fengyue place, it can open a brothel in the imperial city, and there is no background. But the high roller just handed a purple nameplate from the box, and the old bustard of the "Yufang Pavilion" obediently admitted it, and the price was not returned. Directly sealed the box of this young man who had been cultivated for several years, and waited for the big man to be lucky, it seems that this is the adult's golden house hidden here.

A few months passed, and the house did not wait for the new master to come, and it seemed that either something happened to the big man, or he forgot about this little thing after he woke up.

After a few months of calm and calm, the busy upright has also forgotten about this matter, especially when there have been many major events recently. The Chun Er back then, and now Liu Ye'er are slowly waiting day after day from anticipation, disappointment to calm and then to thinking, the crystal card that the adult gave for the first time is still more, but if it really doesn't come in the future, you have to think about making a long-term living, right?

So most of the servants were dismissed by Liu Ye'er, leaving only a housekeeper and a cook, plus the peach pit that followed him from the "Yufang Pavilion", the four of them supported each other, and lived calmly with a trace of hidden expectation.

On this morning, the peach pit brought washing utensils to serve the lady to change her clothes as usual, and the peach pit, who has always been careless, couldn't help muttering when she was thrush in the willow leaves: "Why does the young lady look full of peach blossoms today?"

The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and the picturesque, elegant and moving Liu Yeer's hand trembled, and she almost spent her makeup. Finally, he sent the maid away, and told him to meditate today, and no one was allowed to go to the inner courtyard. Only then did he settle down, lifted the food box, propped up the oil-paper umbrella, and went to the inner courtyard alone.

Walk to the courtyard, only to see the corridor pavilion twists and turns, under the meandering circle of sanitation a puddle of water, the water is like a mirror, the light rain is like a crisp, the reflection of the pavilion and the covered bridge, the high wall rockery, the shy flower and the single tree, although it is not a wealthy compound, but there is also a different flavor.

A young man in black leaned against the pillar with his back to the willow leaves, revealing half of the grass stem in his mouth, vaguely reporting numbers of unknown meaning such as "left 1, right oblique 9, lower front 7, upper left 3".

The thin boy with a scar on his face in the lake danced two short swords to the left and right, flying up and down in the rain, and the rain mist that flew was like a circle of air cover. With the jumping figure stepping on it, a few planks under his feet floated and fell in the lake, and Liu Ye'er took a closer look, and it was actually a few wooden tables and wooden stools in the room.

The digital direction in the mouth of the black-clothed young man seemed to be a poisonous snake and beast, and every time he reported it, he was always in the most uncomfortable flaw of the thin boy, and after holding his breath or defending or dodging many times, he finally stepped into the air and fell into the lake with a "plop".

The young man in black finally turned his head and looked at Liu Ye'er and smiled slightly: "Miss Liu is early!"

Liu Ye'er finally saw this person who made her "think about it day and night" again.

This "thinking day and night" is not love at first sight, but more should be "gratitude", "fear" and "respect". Gratitude and respect for this person who has only met once, and then used the most simple and crude method to save himself from the sea of suffering, how will this big man settle his own panic and anxiety, and perhaps mixed with a trace of fantasy and longing for a better future?

The same calm and calm eyes, the same indifferent smile, the same calm and rational voice, just like asking yourself for the first time: "Do you want to be an ordinary person?" At that time, it was full of magic, a magic that seemed to be able to do it if he said it.

The facts also proved that at that time, I nodded obsessively and said, "Yes!", which actually became a fact that night.

"Concubine Liu Ye'er has seen Gongzi, please have breakfast. Liu Ye'er forcibly suppressed the trance in her heart, and her eyes were dazzled by the clean smile of the young man in black, she slowly bowed down and said softly.

Looking at the rich and delicate breakfast in the food box opened by Liu Ye'er, Liu Ying couldn't help but move her index finger, picked up a crystal bun and smacked it. There are a lot of food types and categories, and Liu Ye'er is working alone in the kitchen in the middle of the night, so she naturally can't hide Liu Ying's keen five senses.

"The girl has worked hard. Liu Ying glanced meaningfully at Liu Ye'er while eating.

Childe laughed, this period of time is Ye'er's dream day. The clever Liu Ye'er naturally understood what Liu Ying meant, and replied softly. A graceful arc is drawn between the slightly lowered jaw and the slender neck, connecting the moving collarbone, a beautiful woman in Jiangnan painting.

Liu Ying secretly praised it in his heart, but his mouth was full of trouble: "If you want to continue to live this kind of life, you may need to take some risks, and if you lose the risk, you will lose your life, have you thought about it?"

"Last night, the son suddenly came to visit and inquire, and the concubine had already replied to the childe. ”

"Don't think about it anymore?"

Liu Ye'er seemed to hear the sword light and sword shadow in Liu Ying's tone, and finally raised her head and was in a trance: "The concubine was sold to Mu Niang since she was a child, although Mu Niang's intentions are not pure, but she is very good to me." In addition to the cultivation of qin, chess, poetry and painting and serving men, "Speaking of 'serving men', Liu Ye'er blushed, looked up at Liu Ying, who raised her hand and cheeks, and seemed to be smiling, and stroked her hair that was blown by the wind in a panic, and continued, "As long as I want to read a book, my mother will buy it for me, so Liu Yeer is fortunate to learn many historical allusions and heroic biographies." After a pause, Liu Ye'er bravely looked directly into Liu Ying's eyes, and said very firmly, "Although Ye'er was born in a Qinglou, she is fortunate to be able to know how to be knowledgeable, to know kindness, and to know the hatred of the country and the family. I know that Gongzi is not an ordinary person, but Liu Yeer is willing to follow Gongzi and has no regrets. ”

"Da Da~" Liu Ye'er's brave confession just fell, a string of slight ripples suddenly rippled in the lake, in Liu Ye'er's stunned eyes, he had lived for several months, and often played the piano and read on a rockery, with the ripples rippling, actually slowly revealed a hole. A long-haired woman dressed in men's clothes, with her right hand held flat and a gun in her left hand, was cautiously walking towards the entrance of the cave.

"The person you need to follow is not me, but her!" Willow Shadow's voice came from the side.

"Wow~", the boy who fell into the lake came out of the water. "Poof~ can suffocate me, Master, has the treasure cave been opened?"

The four of them sat down again, three pairs of eyes staring directly at Liu Ying, one hot and complex, one reserved and respectful, and one pure curiosity.

The meaning contained in the three pairs of eyes was profound, and even Liu Ying, who had passed through the wind and waves, couldn't bear it, so Liu Ying fought back decisively. He glared at Feng and snorted coldly: "What do you see? I'm still curious about your identity, should you explain it? My royal prince or what kind of master is the peak?!"

As soon as these words came out, they really ignited the hearts of the two ladies who were gossiping, and they all turned their heads to look at the peak, and Liu Ye'er covered the corners of her mouth and exclaimed in a low voice: "The prince of the Jin clan?!"

Feng opened his mouth and was silent, first bowing his head and not speaking, then Huo Ran raised his head, took a step back and knelt in front of Liu Ying with his knees bent, and the faint scar on his angry left cheek became more and more hideous. "Master, I'm not a prince, but I'm a member of the 'Jin Clan'. My name is Feng Qi, my father is the head of the Imperial City's Patrol Department, and I am a blood brother with Emperor Blade Ti Qi. ”

12 years ago, when the new emperor ascended the throne for three years, Nafeng Haogu, who had disappeared for three years, came to congratulate him, and the emperor was overjoyed, and personally went out of the city to greet the most admired opponent and friend of the year, and left him in the palace to have a long talk, and drank tirelessly for several days.

Unexpectedly, on the eve of Daqing, there was a sudden great change, and a total of eight races, including the "Dana Clan", "Bai Clan", "Siduo Clan", "Qiankong Clan", "Double-headed Clan", "Blood Eye Clan", "Barbarian Stone Clan", and "Qi Clan", rebelled outside the Imperial City Palace at the same time!

The god gave the "city cover" to prevent the outside but not the inside, so when the blade was drunk, the imperial city was killed all over the field by the eight tribes of men and horses who had been prepared, and the Nochanan River led the army to roar like a beast in front of the canopy of the palace.

And in the palace, Nafeng Haogu, who was hospitable, was also murdered in his sleep, taking Wei Zhihang, Guangyuan, and Yan Yangray, the son of the patriarch of the "Bai Clan", to kill frantically until the blood flowed like a river, and almost no chickens and dogs were left.

The drunken emperor woke up from the desperate rescue of the guards, and immediately made a decision, reluctantly got up to protect dozens of children who were staying in the palace and were about to perform the next day and fled to the "Tower of Babel".

After opening the "Tower of Babel" and sending the child to the "Divine Domain", the Emperor did not choose to pray for the "Light of the Gods" to land in the imperial city and destroy everything, but instead chose to kill the enemy group alone, and finally died with Yan Yan.

The two generations of the royal family "Jin Clan", which should have gone down in history, disappeared, and the remaining dozens of "Jin Clan" children fell into a coma as soon as they entered the "Divine Domain", and when they woke up, they found themselves inexplicably among the races of the world.

Since then, the phantom of the "Divine Domain" that can be looked up all year round is no longer seen, and only the "Tower of Babel" is still proudly standing in the palace, but there is no miracle to show.

Nafeng Hao Guqi occupied the dove's nest, shouted the slogan of "expelling the divine power and restoring the rule of man", led the eight clans step by step, fought steadily, and gradually controlled most of the power of Jiwo Wa Xing.

After many years of defeat, the royalist tribe had no choice but to hide in the mountains and forests with the old and the young, looking forward to the day when the divine grace returned......
