The Enemy Outside the Territory Part I, Chapter 2 Night Patrol Chang'an City
From this day on, all the Yin and Yang brigadiers, including Yi Chao, took turns to patrol Chang'an City at night.
Chang'an's night market was also very prosperous before, but due to the recent ghosts disturbing the city, the city has become a little more deserted. After dinner, people choose to stay at home and not go out, but not everyone is afraid to go out, after all, some people still rely on the night market to supplement their families.
Once I passed by a small noodle stall, I smelled the smell of green vegetables and noodles, and my mouth immediately watered. It's not because this noodles are extremely fragrant, but in his childhood memory, the green vegetable noodles made by his mother are always the most delicious and fragrant.
"Boss, please bring me a bowl of green vegetable noodles!"
"Okay Rat! Wait a minute!"
Once watching the boss make noodles, a handful of white noodles are put into the pot, scalded and scooped up, plus a small half spoon of sesame oil, covered with a few green vegetable leaves, and then sprinkled with chopped green onions, a bowl of hot green vegetable noodles is ready.
"Hey, please slow down!"
"Thank you boss!"
The owner of the noodle stall looked at the dress of a yin-yang official, and asked curiously: "The adult is a yin-yang official?"
Once his mouth was stuffed with noodles, he nodded, "You, your noodles are so delicious!"
"Hey! It's an honor for adults to come to my little noodle stall!
Usually I am most disgusted with these sycophants, and when I see the officials and nobles, I stick them up.
"Don't worry, I'll give you face money!"
"Huh! My lord misunderstood! I'm not worried that you won't give me face money! I just look at my face as a little familiar, very much like one of my benefactors! Hmm...... It's a friend!"
He frowned, and the noodles in his mouth were still chewing, "Friend, what friend?"
The noodle stall owner rubbed his oil-stained hands with a scarf and told Yichao that there was a young man like him who liked his green vegetable noodles.
Once I drank the last mouthful of noodle soup, "Ha - it's as delicious as my mother's cooking!"
"Oh, that's what my friend said about what I did!"
He once took out a few taels of money from his money bag and handed it to the boss, "This friend of yours also thinks that the noodles you make have the taste of being made by his mother?"
"Exactly!"
"That's too fateful for me, isn't it? This person can't be my brother, right?"
"What's your brother's name?"
"My brother's name is Ma Yixi!"
Hearing the name of Yiyi, the noodle stall owner was dumbfounded.
"Huh?
Hearing that the noodle stall owner confirmed that it was an overnight, he was dumbfounded.
Is there such a coincidence in the world? The two brothers actually came to the same noodle stall to eat noodles first, and gave the same evaluation!
"Boss, are you sure your friend is my brother, Ma Yixi?"
"You can't be wrong! Lord Yixi used to come to my little noodle stall to eat noodles! But that was several years ago! I haven't seen him since Lord Yixi resigned and left Yin Yang Province!"
There are few people on the street now, and the noodle stall naturally has no customers, and the owner has a free time to talk about the past.
The two sat down at the table, poured two cups of tea, and chatted.
"Boss, do you know why my brother resigned?"
"I don't know much about that!
"I asked him, but every time he said, 'It's a long story, I'll talk about it later!'"
"It's no wonder! Yixi is a bit introverted and doesn't like to communicate with others, but this doesn't affect his kindness to others!"
"Hey, is my brother that good?"
"Alas, I can't tell you anything about this! In short, I will never forget the kindness of my lord to me!"
I was about to ask for details, but I saw two senior brothers who were patrolling the night in the distance passing by, so he immediately got up and wanted to leave, "By the way, boss, I have something important to do now, and I will listen to you in detail about you and my brother's affairs later!"
The noodle stall owner also noticed the two Yin and Yang officials who were checking the post, and he understood that he was afraid that others would accuse him of being lazy here, "Okay lord! You are busy with important things first! I will have time to come to my noodle stall to eat noodles more in the future, and I will guarantee that the noodles and soup will be sweet!"
"Then boss, I'll quit first! By the way, don't call me by adults in the future! Seeing that you are older, my father is more than old, so you should call me for a while!"
"One day, one day, one day! Your brothers' names are a perfect match!"
"Okay! I can't talk to you more! I'll go first!"
"Your Excellency...... You go slowly!"
The owner of the noodle stall still almost didn't change his mouth, and it's no wonder that in this huge and prosperous Chang'an, there are some high-powered people. The family has no background, in case you usually say the wrong thing and offend others, you will suffer a big loss!
Don't look at the prosperity and glory of Chang'an City, in fact, the people at the bottom are still living in dire unease. This is the oppression and injustice of class.
The boss cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and muttered in his mouth: "This Lord Yi and Lord Yi are really similar, I thought I was back to that night five years ago!"
Once he ran to his senior brother and reported to them that he had found nothing unusual.
"Are you a brigadier under the Black Goose?"
"Exactly!"
"Well——, inspect the surrounding environment well, and if there is anything abnormal, report it to your superiors immediately, but don't be lazy and make mistakes, you can't afford it!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Senior brother walks slowly!"
Before they went far, the two of them came to sarcastically for a while, and they were afraid that they would not hear it for a while, so they deliberately raised their voices, "What kind of thing is the black goose, look at his spirit, as if he worshipped some famous teacher! I see, he can't learn anything for ten years, at most he ......should be a petty official."
This was a stimulus for a while, and I originally wanted to go up to theorize and save face, but after thinking about it carefully, there was no need for that at all.
After all, these dog-eyed people will not be able to make a big deal after all! Just let them go, and they will only be left to speak ill of others!
Turning his head, he continued to patrol the night. Looking at the moon in the sky, and thinking about the two hours of night patrol mission, it is inevitable that I will be a little tired and tired.
But when I looked back, I saw that the owner of the noodle stall was still working hard to take care of his business in the store, and once he patted a few times on his stomach, this bowl of somen noodles full of mother's taste really gave him a trace of warmth.
After patrolling a few streets, the number of people on the road began to decrease and decreased, and the people all turned off the lights of thousands of homes and went to rest.
Once I felt some movement in the hat, it turned out to be "Chaos" making noise. As soon as he flipped his official hat sideways, revealing the "Chaos Flower", he forgot to absorb the moonlight for "Chaos".
"Lord!"
"It's good that you can talk to me!"
"Chaos has always been there! If the lord wants to talk to someone, just call me!"
"Did you say they're all asleep now?"
"Who are they?"
"Father, mother, master, brother, Lin Chen, Qiguang them, and...... Qingyang!"
"Is the lord missing his relatives and friends?"
"Don't you want to, even though I'm so old and should be independent, but this can't be an excuse for me to be afraid of loneliness!"
"Don't be afraid, there is also 'Chaos' who has been accompanying the lord!"
The master and servant, step by step, also walked a few streets.
Suddenly, a chill in the back!
"Chaos" also sensed that something cold and biting was nearby, and that feeling was subtle, but it was a little chilling.
"Do you feel it?"
"Yes, my lord, I feel it too!"
The chill they felt, like a pair of deep, terrifying eyes, had been in the dark, staring straight at them.
"Looks like someone is watching us!"
"Be careful, lord!"
As soon as he pulled out the peachwood sword that was on his back, he looked around carefully, ready to meet the enemy.
At this moment of latent crisis, the senses of the five senses are particularly sensitive, and any wind and grass around them can feel the slightest subtlety.
However, the chill of the eyes suddenly disappeared!
Everything around was as usual, ordinary and peaceful.
Last night was the first night of a night patrol, and there was no danger.
Because one person has to do the work of three people, and when he is laid off, it is almost dawn.
He returned to the dormitory and fell asleep.
When they got up, they wanted to call him to have breakfast together, but they couldn't wake him up.
Wei Ling: "I think he was too sleepy for a while! I also suffered him, one person has to take the post of three people! Alas——"
Qi Feng: "I think we should bring some food back for the first time, and he will have to eat when he gets better!"
Qiguang: "Alas, he comes back to sleep when we go to class, and he will start stargazing and night patrol after we get out of class, so how can he learn things?"
The three of them were powerless, so they could only cover the quilt for one day, make breakfast, and hurriedly go to class.
"Chaos" listened to the words of the three of them, and felt a little uncomfortable, and it also blamed itself for not being able to help the court.
The day passed quickly, and the sun rose and sunset in the blink of an eye.
Once he had slept well and recovered most of his physical strength, he finished eating and put them on the table in the room, and the steamed buns and porridge that had already been cold were put on official uniforms and wooden swords, and rushed to the Temple of Mercy and Grace.
Fortunately, the senior brothers of Liangyi are reasonable and know that the night patrol is very hard, and the three of them are very active in sharing the task of stargazing.
Observing and recording the stars seems to be a very simple word, but it is unbearable for a person to keep looking up at the stars for a long time.
Once I came to the street I was responsible for, I started tonight's night training mission.
It may be due to the winter, people who go out are going home earlier and earlier every day to avoid the cold, and some businessmen have already closed before dinner.
Now in the city, the wind is calm, and things are as usual.
Once rubbed his palms, he snorted the heat in his mouth.
"Lord!"
The Flower of Chaos poked out a small head from under the hat of the Emperor, and the dark black fireworks on the stamen fluttered faintly in front of the eyes.
