Chapter 225: Dream of the Past (4)
She was just unwilling to see Luo An, where the pain that surged in her empty heart for no reason came from, so she wanted to get close to him and find out.
It's just that what she didn't expect was that she would lose all of herself.
It also implicated Yin Zi, 30,000 years of parting sorrow.
"Silent Night...... I'm sorry. The chapped lip flap opened and closed in the wind, and the not outstanding appearance fell on the ears of passers-by, and it was a long time before Yin Zi closed her eyes with difficulty, pushed away the crowd, and walked forward.
The original Jade King's Mansion is long gone, and the retro streets seem to be in disrepair, or dilapidated due to the impact of the Great War of Gods and Demons 30,000 years ago.
Standing in front of the old site of the Jade King's Mansion, Yin Zi looked sad, and said to herself: "The Jade King's Mansion has been razed to the ground, even if you come here for a quiet night, you won't stop for long." ”
She thought to herself, and the good mood she had finally gathered disappeared at this moment.
"Forget it, I'll stay here for two days. Just in case the night still stopped somewhere in the city, she decisively chose to stay.
"Guest officer, please ...... inside"
As soon as I walked to the door of an inn, I saw the shopkeeper greet him with a smile.
Yin Zi's face did not move, and her ordinary face did not show any look that did not match her face.
"I want a good room......
As soon as she entered the inn, Yin Zi was immediately dumbfounded, and the aftersound circled around her throat a few times and swallowed it back.
I saw several large beams in the inn standing crookedly, and in the hall where the inn was served, traces of many repairs could be seen.
Yin Zi endured it, endured it again, and finally couldn't help asking: "Xiao Er, why is your inn like this......"
"You don't know, officer. The shopkeeper still greeted him with a smile, "Our inn is already the best inn in Nanyu City." ”
"The best?" said Yinzi.
"yes...... If you don't believe it, you can go and see a few more," the shopkeeper said confidently: "Anyway, in the end, you will still come back here." ”
"Is it really that bad?!" asked Yin Zi in disbelief.
"Yes. The shopkeeper said: "Nanyu has been frequently robbed by thieves in recent years, and now the people who are still in the city are living worse day by day. After speaking, he pointed to the traces that had been repaired all over the inn and said: "Nanyu is located in a remote area, thousands of miles away from Chang'an, and the people who went to inform the imperial court went wave after wave, but they did not receive any response. ”
"Then why are you still here? Yin Zi cast a small spell slightly, and after investigating the truth in the second word of the shopkeeper, she went upstairs with him and asked.
"We don't want to. The shopkeeper shrugged his shoulders and said sadly: "But we have been rooted here for generations, if we leave, where should we go, besides, human life is like a mustard, staying here can still live in peace, but if we go elsewhere, I don't know if there will be a way to live." ”
"Well, that makes sense. Yin Zi nodded in agreement.
With the head of the shopkeeper leading the way, he came to the door of a room that was still eye-catching.
The shopkeeper pushed the door in and said, "Guest officer, please come in." ”
Yin Zi followed into the room and said, "Well, stand down." ”
After speaking, she walked to the table and sat down, and instructed the shopkeeper who was watching her: "Remember to prepare some tea later, and the food will be delivered." ”
"Yes, yes......" The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly and closed the door and retreated.
......
Yin Zi sat in the room and felt bored, and after the meal, she went out of the inn to wander the streets.
The sun is sunny and cloudless.
The noise and shouting were endless, as if the ruins of Nanyu City had not affected the leisure and elegance of those mortals wandering in the bazaar.
The vicissitudes of the sea, the world changes.
Yin Zi searched the street for a long time, but she couldn't find the teahouse where she had stopped for a moment with the silent night.
Everything around her was strange and familiar, as if the person who was by her side was still there.
The corners of her lips were slightly hooked, and she stood on the street, looking up at the sunny and blue sky, and suddenly missed the rainy days in her heart.
Thinking like this in my heart, the sunny day just now suddenly changed color.
Dark clouds spread from the sky, surrounding the sky over Nanyu City, and a cold wind with a cold chill suddenly appeared, rolling up the things that many vendors were selling in front of their stalls into the sky.
I only heard someone say, "Hey...... My stuff, that's my stuff......"
Some people were even dissatisfied: "What the hell, it's sunny and daylight, how can it be so good that it will change the sky." ”
"yes, there's been a lot of weather this year. ”
"Isn't it? Yesterday it was snowing and raining for no apparent reason. I finally survived until the rain passed and the sky was clear, and it was dark, but today ...... You see, the damn weather is here again. ”
Complaints are coming and going, and many vendors are packing up their things and preparing to go home.
However, no sooner had the curtain come down than large raindrops fell from the air, "popping" on the air-dried ground.
Yin Zi stood in place, not leaving an inch.
Large raindrops slapped on her face, in her hair, on her clothes, it was an ordinary face, but now it was a little charming because of this rain.
There were many men sheltering from the rain under the eaves of the street porches, and they couldn't help but talk about it.
"Hey...... Do you think this man is a fool, standing in the rain on a rainy day and letting it rain? ”
Someone answered, "Who knows! Maybe he's a fool." ”
"However, not to mention, this stupid woman stood in the rain like a bit of a beauty. ”
"Phew...... This can also be called beauty, so can't the Oiran of Changchun Tower be called a heavenly immortal?!"
"Haha......"
Many people who were sheltering from the rain couldn't help but laugh.
How good is Yin Zi's ear power, hearing this, the tail of the raised eye only glanced there slightly, and saw a golden light descending and slashing under the eaves where those people were standing.
Several shards shattered by lightning fell from the sky, startling the few people who were discussing the matter of Yin Zi in panic, and hurriedly retreated in unison, clinging to the wall.
Yin Zi hooked her lips and smiled, and the fierceness in her eyes was self-evident.
Another thunderbolt struck, this time directly in front of the heels of those men.
There was a loud bang, and a large hole was split into the ground in front ......of several people, causing the whole house to shake.
"This ...... This is ......" The few people who were still talking just now suddenly turned pale with fright, and they all looked at this scene from the sky in disbelief, and their eyes were not only afraid but also afraid.
Yin Zi used the directory to investigate the past of the next few people, and then she realized that those people were originally prodigal children in the city, but they relied on their own family money, and they liked to dominate the streets and rob people's daughters.
"This kind of person really shouldn't live in the world. Yin Zi's thin body staggered in the rain.
Suddenly, a roar sounded behind him, like the sound of something heavy exploding.
The earth shook twice.
The few people hiding under the eaves had no time to let out a terrible scream.
This sudden scene made many people who were hiding from the rain under other roofs applaud.
Returning to the inn alone, Yin Zi's dress was wet with rain, her hair was like a sudden dead grass, and rain dripped down her jaw from time to time on her face.
"Oh, guest officer, are you going to get drenched in the rain?" The shopkeeper greeted him with a dry towel, and stretched out his hand to wipe the water stains on Yinzi's head.
"Give it to me. Yin Zi took the towel from the shopkeeper with a cold face, rubbed it stiffly on her head a few times, and handed it back.
"The guest officer was wandering the street today, I wonder if I heard the rumor that someone was killed by lightning?" said the shopkeeper gossiping.
"You're pretty well informed. Yin Zi sneered.
"I'm not ......" The shopkeeper scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Because our inn has a wide range of connections, and besides, the few people who were killed by lightning today are only the sons of wealthy merchants in our city......"
"You know that. Yin Zi went upstairs alone and said, "Bring some hot water." ”
After thinking about it, he said, "I heard that it snowed in Nanyu City yesterday?"
She was only slightly suspicious of the chatter of the mortals in the streets, and had no intention of verifying the truth of what they said.
But if what they said is true, isn't it Nanyu City, which only arrived yesterday......
Thinking of this, Yin Zi's dim purple eyes suddenly appeared to break through the confinement.
She hurriedly lowered her head, casting a spell to hide the panic in her eyes.
"How does the guest officer know?" As soon as he heard the gossip, the shopkeeper immediately became interested again.
"Oh, I heard. Yin Zi replied unhurriedly.
"Exactly. As soon as he heard someone ask about the gossip he was good at, he immediately foamed at the mouth and said: "Speaking of this natural vision, some people can't encounter it once in their lives, but in the past two days, Nanyu City has encountered it frequently. ”
"Take today as an example, it rained heavily on a sunny day, and even if it rained, there was thunder. However, this thunder hit by coincidence, and even chopped several bullies in our city to death......"
"Are you happy to have chopped the bully to death?" asked Yin Zi coldly.
"Of course. The shopkeeper said: "Who in Nanyu City hasn't been bullied by those people, and it's good to be ...... dead."
"What about yesterday!" asked Yin Zi, stopping in front of the door.
"Yesterday, it was similar to today's scene, and it was also a good day when it snowed. ”
"You can see why. ”
"I don't know. The shopkeeper said: "If you ask me about the gossip in the city, I will definitely say it accurately, but it is really difficult to say such a thing as a celestial phenomenon." ”
"That's it. Yin Zi pushed the door and entered. "Stand down, and remember to have some hot water. ”
Closing the door, Yin Zi performed a cleansing technique to change the rain-soaked clothes on her body, and the words that the shopkeeper said in her mind were still in her mind.
