Chapter 135: A Sword Enters Luojing (2)
This is the south gate of Luojing, and like every day of the past week, the south gate is still flooded today.
"It's hot, it's so hot. An officer and soldier guarding the city gate still couldn't help but take off his helmet and wanted to wipe his sweat and catch his breath, "Why is this ghost weather like this all of a sudden, June has never been so hot in previous years!"
"No, it's still cloudy, and I think it's going to rain again in a while. Another officer and soldier beside him also echoed, he had just finished checking a foreigner with a thick bag on his head, this alien was also weird, he could still wrap himself tightly on such a hot day, but there was no sweat on his face at all, and even the surrounding temperature was cooler when he approached.
This man can't be an iceman, and if he is, I wish he had been by his side a little longer. The officers and soldiers thought so.
"Well, it's going to last a few days, it's too hard. The officers and soldiers of Fang Cai complained, "I originally wanted to save trouble so I chose to stay in Luojing as a capital guard, but I didn't expect that it would be harder than going to the front line to fight?"
"You are content, let's settle the South Gate, no one has made trouble in the past few days, you know that Ximen is very powerful, there have been more than a dozen brawls in the past two days, all of them are people in the rivers and lakes who fight without saying a word, and a brother has broken a few ribs in the chaos!"
"Damn, is it so terrifying? I don't know what to do this year, why did so many people come here at once, my father told me that his father didn't have so many people at the clan event at that time, wouldn't the whole Dongzhou people come to Luojing?"
"Don't say stupid things, just as they were all coming, Luo Jing would have blown up a long time ago, what do you want?"
"Three days ago, I thought that this Luojing was already crowded, and recently there were so many people who went in, where did this person go, do we have so many inns in Luojing?"
"Don't say it, the inn I passed by recently even had people sleeping on the floor of the hall, it's outrageous, Lao Tzu has never seen so many people in Luojing since he was born. ”
"Hey, you two are lazy, hurry back to work!" a non-commissioned officer shouted angrily, and the two officers and soldiers who had just wanted to rest had to go back to check on the next person entering the city.
"But this weather is really irritable, it's stuffy like this, it's really infuriating!" the non-commissioned officer muttered in a low voice, "Fortunately, there is no trouble at this south gate, I just hope that the next few days can be passed quickly and then we can have a holiday." ”
Although it was a bit hard to choose to be on duty at this time, but after the clan festival began, you could have a good rest, and the non-commissioned officer had already planned to take his wife to visit the temple fairs and markets in the western suburbs of the city, it is said that there will be many exotic exquisite jewelry for sale at that time, buy one for your wife as a gift, and make up for the regret that she has not been able to accompany her on weekdays.
As long as you can stick to these few days, the Bodhisattva will bless you and don't let anything happen.
At this moment, a burst of shouting and scolding suddenly broke out among the crowd waiting for inspection at the city gate, and soon there was a sound of gold and iron intermingling, and the previously orderly crowd began to become a little chaotic.
"Isn't it, is this coming before I finish praying?" the non-commissioned officer frowned, crossed the somewhat noisy crowd, and couldn't help but look in the direction of the sound.
I saw two groups of people from the rivers and lakes fighting fiercely, one of them seemed to be from the northern regions in their clothes, and the other group spoke a very standard Tunanguo accent.
"Hey, hey, stop, what's going on!" the non-commissioned officer rushed forward to try to separate the two groups, and soon some officers and soldiers who followed the sound forcibly intervened between the two groups of people to try to control the situation.
"Phew, get out of the way, today Lao Tzu is going to teach these northerners a good lesson, they dare to bully the people of my Tunan country in the territory of my Tu Nan country!" The leader of the party was a man with five big and three rough people, and the non-commissioned officer looked at him carefully for a while, and then he remembered that this person was the leader of the notorious mercenary gang Flying Bear Regiment near Yecheng, known as Awan in the rivers and lakes.
At this time, the man was holding a machete in one hand and a little girl who looked to be ten years old in the other, and his mouth was full of scolding and scolding that did not stop for almost a moment.
The man from the Northern Regions standing opposite him also seemed to be of great origin, the man at the head was slender and slender, looking to be six and a half feet, and the guards beside him were all armed with thin swords, dressed in uniform white clothing, and the workmanship of each piece should be excellent.
The non-commissioned officer is not a person who has no eyesight, he has long been a person who guards the city gate on weekdays, and he has long been familiar with judging his identity from everyone's clothing and conversation.
Experience tells the non-commissioned officer that these people from the Northern Regions in front of him are definitely not ordinary people, and if they are not handled carefully, they are only afraid that they will be in big trouble.
"What the hell is going on, what's going on?" the non-commissioned officer decided to find out what had happened first, and grabbed a random crowd of people who were watching the excitement and asked.
"Lord Hui, it seems that those people from the Northern Regions said that the little girl under Awan wanted to steal their things, and they wanted to teach the little girl a lesson, so the fight started. The tone of the onlookers is not very sure, but looking at the reactions of both sides, it must be ** inseparable.
The Flying Bear Regiment has a bad reputation in the local area, and this Awan often did some petty theft in his early years, and it is not surprising that such a thing has happened now.
"What did you steal?" the non-commissioned officer asked Awan and the little girl beside him, "Hurry up and hand it over, you are not afraid of being ashamed of doing this kind of thing in front of the world at this time!"
"I didn't steal!" the little girl suddenly shouted, clutching her hands so tightly that the sergeant could see through the cracks between her hands that it looked like a carved wooden pendant.
"This was originally my sister's thing! I saw it familiar just now, so I took it to confirm, I didn't expect it to be in the hands of these aliens, it must be these people who kidnapped my sister and stole her pendant!"
"What are you talking nonsense?" said the man in the middle of the Northern Regions with a frown, "I don't know your sister at all, this is just a pendant I picked up on the road, and I took it with me because it looked like the workmanship was good." ”
The man turned his head, stretched out his hand and pointed to the luxurious carriage behind him, and said to the non-commissioned officer in a cold tone: "Not to mention stealing in broad daylight, there are thieves who shout to catch thieves and spew blood, do you know who the adults sitting in the car are, is this the hospitality of the Tunan people?"
