Volume 1 Beginning Nagumo Chapter 121 Imperial City
Wu Zhen was stunned for a moment when he heard Sixing's words, then pursed his lips, glanced at the dim sky, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's rare that you kid has a heart, and seeing that you are so good now, you are already a person in the Red Red Flame Army, no matter what, I have to take your master and me to have a good meal!"
"Of course!" Si Xing nodded, and it was rare that he didn't slam the door.
Wu Zhen laughed: "I am a little uncomfortable with your kid being so good to me, okay, I didn't raise a little white-eyed wolf in vain, I can just ask you about your going to the Red Red Flame Army for the assessment during this period of time, and your future plans." ”
Today's dinner, Si Xing took Wu Zhen to a restaurant, ordered a pot of wine and some side dishes, this time the master and apprentice rarely did not say a word to me, it was extremely quiet, only the sound of chopsticks and dinner plates colliding.
At the beginning, Wu Zhen asked some of Sixing's encounters in the Red Red Yan Army during this time, and Si Xing also told Wu Zhen about his encounters in the Red Red Yan Army for a year, the content of the assessment, and some interesting things, such as how he did the Chuxiong Empire's big heads, but in the end, when it came to the death of Li Hang and Brother Wen, Si Xing also looked sad and sad, sighed, and was very helpless, but he didn't expect a few brothers to go all the way through five levels and kill six generals, but in the last pass, two people died。
Wu Zhen listened, drank all the wine in the cup, and then said: " Life and death are a matter of time, it's just that some people's lives are better, they can live a few more years, some people's lives are not good, life is in the world, there will be a death, people in this life, there are inevitably several life and death, just look at the point, your master and I have experienced a lot of such partings before, at the beginning, I also felt very uncomfortable, I couldn't accept such a result, but the more I felt natural about this kind of thing later, just let it be, but how can I be born without any feelings? So, God keeps us alive, and sometimes it always feels like a joke on us. ”
"But you are different, you are still young, there are still many things you have not experienced, there will always be many partings in life, you have to learn to adapt, and besides, haven't you already helped Li Hang fulfill his wish now? Wu Zhen can also be regarded as a person who has experienced real vicissitudes, and he has the most say in such things, he poured a glass of wine for Sixing and comforted.
Sixing saluted Wu Zhen with a glass of wine before slowly saying: "Master, don't worry, I can still see this after so many things, but I just feel a little regretful." ”
"Well, that's the best, and whatever is perfect in the world is just an illusion. ”
The two masters and apprentices chatted so plainly and finally ended the meal, there was no big reason for the chat between the two of them this night, there was no parting, there was no encouragement, but it made Sixing feel that he benefited a lot, and many times the real truth is in these simple and unpretentious things.
Early the next morning, Sixing went to explain Li Yue's affairs to Meng Quan again, and then returned to the Sanli Sword House and began the retreat cultivation before leaving , Because of the pressure of the prince has been pressing on Sixing's heart, so Sixing is also extraordinarily hard to cultivate, except for eating, he almost never goes out, has been in retreat in the house for more than a week, and when the time comes, he is ready to set off directly, Sixing came to Meng Quan's house, but Meng Quan, this kid is not there, and he doesn't know where to go, leaving Li Yue alone, in this big mansion, it still seems a little deserted, Li Yue and Meng Quan get along with each other during this time, and they feel familiar, and they don't face each other when they see Sixing, they are their brothers。
Li Yue was very excited to see Si Xing coming, and she was very excited to come forward and say hello: "Brother Si Xing, you are here! ”
Sixing smiled faintly, pinched the faces of these extremely cute little girls and smiled: "It's only been a week, it's been a long time, so if I go to the imperial city, the next time I come back, it won't be a few years." ”
"Why!"
"You little girl, I haven't seen her for a few days, and she looks better and better when she dresses up!"
Li Yue smiled sweetly in the face of Sixing's praise, and turned around in front of Sixing, at this time Sixing had already regarded Li Yue as his own sister, and Li Yue also understood Sixing's feelings for herself, so she didn't think about it anymore, so that the two of them should be more comfortable chatting about the day, Li Yue smiled and said: "That's, I'm born beautiful." ”
"Okay, okay, you're naturally beautiful, so you've been doing well lately, can you still adapt to our life here?" Si Xing said with a smile.
"It's very good, Brother Meng Quan is very good to me! And everyone here is very good to me! I feel like coming here is like coming to my own home, warm and emotional!"
Si Xing thought to himself: You are about to be their future young grandmother, can they not be polite to you! But Si Xing did not say anything. He looked at Li Yue's happy appearance, and he was also very happy, at least now it seems that he has lived up to Li Hang's entrustment to him, Sixing looked at the blue sky, and said silently in his heart: " Li Hang, you should be very relieved to see that your sister is doing so well now, don't worry, your kid can rest assured in heaven now, although Meng Quan's kid looks a little honest and unreliable, but at a critical moment like this, this kid is still quite serious, and Brother Wen, you are good in heaven, our brothers will help you solve the affairs of your family, you two are fine! What you haven't done, Meng Quan and I will complete it for you. ”
Thinking of this, Si Xing suddenly felt that the corners of his eyes were a little moist, he had already experienced too much after coming out of Nanyun Wu Mansion, and he and Wu Guqing, a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks, didn't know if it was deliberately played by God, round after round of obstacles, one blow after another, this was like a snowball, bigger and bigger, heavier and heavier, so that Si Xing often doubted himself in the middle of the night, but in the end, Si Xing still walked out, and attributed it all to this damn thief God, always didn't want them to meet, Si Xing was also very angry, I just felt that this God was a cheap thing, and liked to tease them。
"Brother Sixing, what's wrong with you?" Li Yue looked at Sixing, whose face suddenly became melancholy, and asked with some doubts.
Si Xing realized that he was a little out of shape, and quickly adjusted his mentality and looked at Li Yue with a smile: "It's nothing, by the way, what about your brother Meng Quan? Why don't you see others? Is he running around all day and leaving you alone at home? This guy is really too disagreeable, if he bullies you in the future, you must remember to tell me, I will teach him a good lesson for you!"
Li Yue was also anxious when she heard that Sixing was going to teach Meng Quan a lesson, and hurriedly waved her hand and said: "No, no! Brother Meng Quan is very good to me, and he takes me out to play every night! Buy me delicious and beautiful clothes, this time is my happiest time, besides, you are originally a martial artist, you have to practice every day, and you have to do a lot of your own things, and it is impossible to be with me all day long, if you really stay with me all day long, this is not true!" Li Yue seemed to be a little embarrassed and lowered her head.
Sixing grinned, looking at this little girl's appearance, he still felt that Meng Quan still had a little bit of ability, and he actually gave Xiao Nizi a little bit of ability to protect him in a week, but compared to himself, it was still a little bit worse.
"Okay, I know that your brother Meng Quan is good to you, but it's not like this, your brother Sixing I haven't protected you all the way, why haven't I seen you protect you like this!" Sixing teased.
"How can there be!" Xiao Nizi suddenly blushed and lowered her head, her voice was so small that she couldn't hear it, she didn't dare to look directly at Si Xing, and Si Xing also laughed, for Li Yue's reaction is also a good start, as long as nothing goes wrong in the middle, Meng Quan should be stable.
"Okay, seeing that you are so shy, I won't tease you, where is this guy Meng Quan? The time for registration is almost up, and it will take a long time for us to rush to the imperial city now, it's not good to go late, no matter how you say it, you have to leave in the next two days." ”
"Oh, that's right, Brother Meng Quan went to Brother Wen's house, it seems that something suddenly requires him to go over, and I don't know when he will come back, but he said it, if you come to find him to go to the imperial city, let you go first, don't wait for him, when he finishes the affairs of Brother Wen's family, he will naturally come to chase you, and you can meet in the imperial city at that time." Li Yue said, her somewhat ignorant, honest and honest appearance is really indescribably cute, and people can't wait to go up and kiss it.
"Okay, then I'll go first, Li Yue, you must take care of yourself when you're alone!" Si Xing immediately put these unrealistic thoughts behind him, how could he have such thoughts, it was really a sin.
The little girl nodded sensibly, but she didn't know why she felt Sixing's concern, Li Yue only felt a warmth in her heart, but her nose was sour, and tears couldn't help but pour into her eyes, and crystal clear tears slid down her fair skin.
If his brother was still alive, he would definitely talk and laugh with Sixing Meng Quan and them every day.
If his brother was still alive, he would have gone to the Imperial City to continue his cultivation at this time.
Si Xing looked at the little girl who was still smiling just now, but at this time tears were rolling in her eyes, and there was a little more sadness in her heart, this little girl must have missed his brother, after thinking about it, Si Xing finally took the little girl into his arms and comforted her, Li Yue couldn't help it anymore at this time, since leaving the Li family, Li Yue suppressed her emotions in her heart every day, holding back, and at this time it was released in an instant, Si Xing patted her shoulder and said, "Alas, don't cry." ”
"Why are you still crying, you think I'm bullying you when other people don't know about it!"
"Okay, okay, don't cry, you're crying now, your brother will be sad to see it!"
"I, I, I miss my brother. Then Li Yue was already a little speechless.
Then Si Xing comforted Li Yue for a long time, this little girl finally controlled her emotions, but she still kept sobbing and choking, looking somewhat distressed, but Si Xing knew that she was already distressed, and the rest was handed over to Meng Quan.
Sixing stood up and looked at a large wet piece of his chest, and there were some unknown objects on it, and the scene was suddenly a little embarrassing.
Li Yue's face turned even redder, she lowered her head, she didn't choke for a while, she didn't care much about it, anyway, she still had a lot of clothes in the space ring, and it would be good to change it later, and then Sixing and the little girl said goodbye and rode Li Heishuai away.
Li Yue looked at the back of Si Xing, who was gradually walking away, Li Yue waved his hand and said, "Brother, you must be well, Li Yue is here waiting for you to come back with Brother Meng Quan!"
Si Xing didn't look back, didn't speak, just waved back, and then the reins in his hand tightened, Li Heishuai understood, the speed accelerated, and Si Xing's back gradually left Li Yue's eyes.
All the way to the horse, and after a few months of eating and sleeping, wind and dust, Si Xing finally came to the imperial city, the imperial city is square, extending to the left and right, there is a moat wide up to ten meters around the imperial city, only the front has a Tianyuan gate, there are two big characters of the imperial city on the top of the gate, the imperial city is not allowed to ride, and finally in the surrounding time to get off the horse, Sixing can only lead Li Heishuai to walk forward slowly, through the city wall to see that the surrounding city wall is at least five or six meters thick, such a city wall even if it is a strong man at the peak of the Yuanfu realm, it may not be able to break it, such a solid city wall is somewhat terrifying, and there are some small female walls on the city wall to protect the soldiers, and there are some mechanisms inside, which are really ingenious in design, and Sixing is also the first time to see such a city wall, think about the so-called city walls in the past, which are just some mountain buns piled out of broken copper and iron, which are not worth mentioning in front of the imperial city.
Si Xing came to the city, the first thing that came into view was the lively and extraordinary bazaar, here was crowded with people, the imperial city was originally the most prosperous place in the empire, the resident population was very large, the imperial city also has a unique building, unlike other places are a separate small courtyard, this is a slender high-rise building, there are six or seven floors here, up to more than 30 meters, see Si Xing is dumbfounded, such a building he also saw for the first time, he did not expect that there would be such a peculiar design, suddenly amazed.
It's just that Sixing doesn't know that such a building is not as comfortable as the small courtyard they used to live in, many people in the imperial city are still willing to buy a small courtyard, as if a small courtyard is a symbol of status, the reason for all this is that the population of the imperial city is too much, and it is still growing, many promising people want to come to this imperial city to fight for a chance, the price here will naturally become more unattainable, and the money in the treasury is limited, it is impossible to expand outward anytime and anywhere, just casting the city wall is not a small cost, in such a city, it is natural to use such a building to reduce the floor area, increase everyone's residence。
The imperial city is really an inch of land, even the place to live has to be made into such a tall building to live, thinking of walking on the street, the already prosperous imperial city is even more crowded during this time, there is more than one teenager with horses around, there are some teenagers and people around a team of people and horses look so imposing, this is even more like thinking of the dust, dusty, extremely tired.
Obviously, these people are here to participate in the registration of this Holy Martial Mansion, if you are a few days late and miss the registration time, even if you have the admission qualifications, it will be difficult to step into the door of the Holy Martial Mansion, you can only wait until the next enrollment to see if you still have a chance.
Si Xing looked back at the young handsome men who came densely behind him, all of them were high-spirited and heroic, but there were no familiar faces of Si Xing.
"I don't know how Meng Quan is doing, and Fu Yijie and Yao Sheng should have arrived almost too, won't it be too late if they don't come for a while!" Si Xing thought of Meng Quan and raised his eyebrows.
With the flow of people, on the streets, you can see patrolling soldiers everywhere, all wearing armor, heroic and extraordinary, the bustling flow of people shuttles non-stop, and then Si Xing first simply ate something, and then looked for a place to live, not for a long time, Si Xing found a very chic hotel, this is a kind of six-story inn, I am the first time to see such a place, it is better to go in and try it, with a curious attitude without hesitation Si Xing walked in, the environment inside is very peculiar, behind is a very small stable, it is estimated that it can accommodate three or four horses, Si Xing let Xiao Er take Li Heishuai to the back, by the way, he gave Xiao Er some tips and asked him to feed Li Heishuai something good, and then Sixing visited this inn.
Although it looks ordinary on the outside, nothing, but there is no hole in it, the glory of the decoration Cui Li, the dim lights have changed, and there is no such thing as stairs up and down here, here up and down is a place called a wooden room, this is a wooden black compartment, there are seats inside, people walking in it will have someone to let him move himself, to the floor he wants to go to, no need for guests to work hard to climb the stairs, it is really amazing, Si Xing looked at these novel things around him and was surprised, this is really the imperial city, the things inside are so luxurious and so novelOf course, you know with your feet that the cost here is not cheap.
