Chapter 163: The Spring and Autumn of Youth
However, there is still a precise limit to these bustles in the city, and after passing through the city and coming to the east of the city, it has already begun to quiet down.
I couldn't hear a few more lingering cat calls within the high walls.
Or the fan in the hands of the subordinate brings a bit of clear coolness.
The laughter in the house could not reach Xu Changan's ears on the street, and the only thing that could light his way was the cold moon hanging high in the sky.
The cold moon is not cold, it is still hot and dry at night, and Xu Changan, who provoked him, couldn't help but raise his head and scolded: "Wall grass!"
Swinging the grass on the wall, the wind blows on both sides.
This is Xu Changan's evaluation of the sky and the moon in a state of impatience, it is colder when it is cold in winter, and it is also hot when it is hot in summer.
From this aspect, Xu Changan's evaluation may not be wrong, but the moon is very aggrieved.
In fact, Xu Changan knew that it was impossible for the moon to have such an idea, because even Yun Wangshu ignored some of his seemingly rude words, how could the moon hanging high in the air do something to him?
If he really could, he would not dare to say it.
Well... A wall grass walking...
Walking in the quiet streets of Dongcheng, I always feel that the taste of those people is a little eerie, and I don't know how I lived here for so many years.
When you come to a mansion, the mahogany gate still shows its true color at night, and it doesn't seem to have changed.
It's just that Xu Changan took a closer look, but found that there was more dust on it, even the drizzle a few days ago couldn't wash it off.
The two big stone lions at the door are still full of majesty, but there is more dirt on the exposed fangs, and the huge copper ball in the mouth of the lion on the left side is not known to be taken away by anyone in any ingenious way, leaving only the right side to enjoy and is very lonely.
With the texture of that copper ball, it should be able to sell dozens or hundreds of copper plates, which couldn't help but make the young man feel distressed for a while.
Why don't you know how to deduct copper balls to sell for money? Could it be that if you deduct a bite from your own family, you will be arrested by the government?
After this mansion was unmanned, countless people in the Sifang City didn't want to buckle a piece of wall skin, and even the government wanted to take it for themselves.
But many things they understand will not be so simple, to have such a large mansion in such a small city, it is obvious that it will not be easy to mess with, if the other party comes back, I am afraid that there will be trouble.
Even if it is a government government, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no time when it will be difficult to suppress the head snake, and for this reason, this mansion has been so empty.
All the coveted people were thinking in their hearts about when the owner of the mansion would be able to return, and when the time came, they could come to the door and say that they had a portion, thinking that even if the other party gave a little charity at will, it would be enough for them to be beautiful for a while.
But only Xu Changan knew that no one would come back, he didn't know why he had such an idea, from the last time, such an idea was a little inexplicable, but it was inexplicably accurate.
Standing quietly in front of the door with a black sword in hand, his eyes seemed to pass through the mahogany door again.
Xu Changan knew that the pear tree flowers in the yard had been thanked in this season and had not yet borne fruit. It's not as wonderful as the last time I came, I could pick a green pear and take two bites.
Last time, he only picked two, and the rest should have fallen to the ground and turned into mud.
The last time he came was autumn, this time it was summer, and the pear blossoms only bloomed in spring, so naturally he could no longer see the spring colors in this mansion.
With preparation in his heart, he will not look lost when the time comes, and Xu Chang'an has been fully prepared for the mess in the courtyard.
When he came to the high wall, he used the black sword in his hand to draw a foothold along the gap in the wall tiles and stepped on it gently, and then the black sword stabbed straight into the wall, and grabbed it with one hand, like rock climbing.
After repeating this twice, he jumped on the wall with one foot and jumped onto the wall.
This was something he couldn't do before he became a cultivator, and although he couldn't directly cross it like Yang Hejiu, it was enough to envy others.
Many people fantasize about being able to walk the wall for the cornice, and he is the same, but when he saw Yang Hejiu, he knew that it might no longer only exist in fantasy.
With his feet on the high wall, he stood up and spread his arms, and the wind was blowing comfortably, and he began to enjoy it.
Looking up, he saw that there was no one around, and then jumped into the mansion that he was familiar with and gradually felt strange again.
It's a little speechless and strange to say that this is obviously the home where I have lived for several years, even if my own son is gone, I still can't change this fact, but every time I come, I have to go over the wall.
Xu Changan couldn't help but complain from the bottom of his heart, how could he not know that he learned to hide the key in a hole in the wall like Yu Ming and his mother?
However, he didn't have time to complain any more, because as soon as he landed, he sensed that something was wrong.
When he first reacted, he was immediately startled.
Although he had prepared for the environment in the yard when he climbed over the wall, until this moment he found that his preparations were really hasty.
It should be said that no one can imagine what it is today.
What is the most fearful thing about climbing over the wall in the dark? It is nothing more than finding someone there when you land.
What's more scary than someone there? People are dead.
There were more than a dozen corpses lying in the courtyard, which really scared Xu Changan.
His first instinct was to run away, but he immediately calmed down again.
He had seen two heads pierced in front of him by an arrow, he had seen a war horse and a warrior on his back being separated by a spear slashing through the corpse, and he had seen a man with a long knife slashing his throat less than a foot away from him.
He had even seen a white warhorse trample the flesh and blood of the guards who had been fighting with him a moment ago.
No matter how you say it, I've seen more bloody and terrifying things, but I can't keep up with the reaction.
If he had known in advance that there would be this picture, he would still have come, because he was not afraid of the dead.
Besides, he always has to come, so he doesn't want to run in vain, even if he comes back next time, it's still the same picture.
Holding the black sword in both hands, he took a protective posture and asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone still alive?" Don't pretend to be dead, I'm a cultivator, and you can't escape my eyes." ”
If there were still people alive, they would definitely respond to Xu Chang'an with great contempt, 'Cultivators, who aren't, aren't we still lying here?'
......
When it was confirmed that no one was alive, Xu Changan breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that someone would like to pretend to be dead and suddenly get up from the ground.
Actually, no one is so boring...
After taking two steps with his foot raised, he noticed the wet stickiness of blood coming from the soles of his shoes, and he was shocked, "Just died?"
Who in this city could have the skills to kill so many people in silence?
Xu Changan thought about it carefully, and the answer he came up with was that there was no one, except for those outsiders last autumn.
Thinking of the outsiders except last year, Xu Changan's heart suddenly popped up with another one, Yun Wangshu!
lowered his head and examined the wound a little, it was indeed a one-hit kill, which was very in line with Yun Wangshu's style.
But what is that girl doing at her own house when she has nothing to do?
It was only at this time that Xu Changan had time to think about why these people were stealing money in his family's mansion.
That's not going to work! Whoever steals money is absolutely not okay!
You must know that you wanted to steal but didn't steal, how can you be so cheap for these sneaky outsiders?
Thinking of this, I hurriedly ran to my Lao Tzu's room to look, and found that the door was wide open, as if someone had pushed it open directly and rudely, and the light had not been extinguished.
Referring to the fish soup he ate at noon, the picture of the other party even biting the fish bones directly into his stomach strengthened Xu Changan's idea that Yun Wangshu had killed these people.
Since she wanted to kill someone, she shouldn't be left alive, so Xu Changan dared to stand at the door and whispered, "Yun Wangshu, is it you?"
Didn't get a reply, counted the hour, even if Yun Wangshu came, he should have left, and looked at the lights flashing in the room again, thinking that if someone else was not so careless, he would not leave traces.
Only Yun Wangshu doesn't care about the habit of turning off the lights on any occasion.
Cautiously came to the room, there was indeed no one inside, no one alive or dead.
Thinking that he noticed that someone was coming in from outside the courtyard, he rushed up to fight in the courtyard, as for why there was no movement, Xu Chang'an was no longer puzzled.
Yun Wangshu doesn't look like the kind of person who will heheha when he gets into a fight, and how dare these sneaky people make a sound?
I was afraid that the knife stabbed me in the neck, and I clenched my teeth and didn't dare to speak, and besides, there were no swords scattered in the courtyard, only some small daggers and other things that were easy to hide.
When he realized that there was no one, he opened the dark compartment under the bed by the lamp, and the money was still there, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief again.
Xu Changan took some and put it in his arms, thinking that he was not short of money to spend, nor did he believe your words and use some of it, I was afraid that someone would steal it.
With this in mind, after taking the money, Xu Changan was speechless and found that those people should not be here to steal the money...
Because neither the study nor the bedroom has the slightest trace of turning, if you come to steal money, even if you don't know where to put it, you should at least turn it over.
And the only change in the study is that someone took a book at random, just turned the first page and put it down, it was definitely Yun Wangshu!
Xu Changan hugged his bulging chest, and then gritted his teeth, and couldn't help but say angrily: "The thief who steals money still dares to quibble!"
Continuing to carry out the room with the money in his arms for fear of being stolen.
Without staying out of the room, Ma slipped out of the mansion.
Walking alone on the streets of Dongcheng, the evening breeze had begun to cool down at this time, wiping the sweat on his forehead, Xu Changan began to slowly wake up.
All the questions began to pop up.
Why did Yun Wangshu come to his house, and why did those who died lie in the yard?
And how can the two of them fight each other?
The last question is not difficult for Xu Changan, you must know that this girl can even ask herself to make a osmanthus fish into braised pork, maybe just because of some inexplicable reasons to kill all those people.
It is also possible that those people noticed that someone was coming and preemptively took action, like a group of snow wolves on Taiyin Mountain that night.
Although Yun Wangshu didn't seem to be a person who liked to get angry and angry, in fact, Xu Changan always felt that the other party was very dangerous.
There are only two questions left, since they are not for stealing money, then why are the two groups of them in their own yards?
Xu Changan held the black sword in his hand and continued to think as he walked.
I think the more reasonable explanation is that one party has an eye on the other party, and knows in advance that the other party will come to their home, so they choose to set up an ambush in the courtyard of their house.
But the question is that even if there is only one group of people, then why did he come to his house?
If you can find Yun Wangshu, you may be able to answer this question.
Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, Xu Changan said to himself: "You said how good it would be if you suddenly fell from the moon." ”
