The Dangyang Case Chapter 29 There is nowhere to return after drinking
On the official road east of Qinguan, at this time, there are many business travelers coming and going, and occasionally there are urgent messengers riding horses and whistling past, the fields on both sides of the official road, farmers are farming, and from time to time there will be a few songs of mountains and villages. Among the pedestrians, there was a man walking slowly, this man was carrying an ancient sword, wearing a scholar's suit, holding the reins of a horse in one hand, and a bundle of bamboo slips in the other, and would whisper a few words from time to time, like a scholar who was going to take the exam.
This person is Ji Feiyun, five days ago, he left the northern governor's mansion in Liangzhou, and walked south with one person and one horse, and then went out of Qinguan on the eastern side of Kunshan and went southeast.
He didn't know where to go, he didn't know where the valley of his hometown was, and he didn't know where to find Chenyue.
The main reason why he didn't want to follow Liu Yuanhai to merge with the state was that he didn't want to send people under the fence, Liu Yuanhai and Qingqing treated him very well, and he got along well with the officials of the Duwei Mansion, but he didn't want to just follow Liu Yuanhai, do things under him, and use Liu Yuanhai's relationship to join the officialdom.
He still has a lot of things to figure out, there are a lot of things waiting for him to do, he has to figure out the truth behind his father's case, Chenyue he must find it, ask her why she didn't say goodbye, he, as the head of the Zhuang family, carries the responsibility and mission of the prosperous door, although he is weak now, but he must also do it.
In the same way, he does not like to be constrained, since he left his home valley and came to the outside world, he has discovered a lot of new things, and he wants to learn more about this world, so he has to leave.
There is another reason, although he didn't think about it carefully, but he felt that it was the relationship with Qingqing, he knew that Qingqing liked him, and he actually liked Qingqing in his heart, but even if they wanted to be together, he didn't want to be an official of the Governor's Mansion.
Liu Yuanhai told him that Duwei's Mansion was his home, and he could come back at any time. Hu Yanbiao gave him a volume of boxing books, saying that it was used by battlefield soldiers to refine his body, and asked him to practice with logistics. Chen Yuanfu, the head of half of his master, chatted for a long time in Chen Yuanfu's study the day before he was ready to leave, and finally gave him a hand-copied volume of "Vertical and Horizontal Secret Techniques", asking him to study it carefully in the future, and to understand it on his own, saying that he would help him in the future. For these friends who are also teachers and friends, he is also a little reluctant to leave, and he has left a very unforgettable experience in the Governor's Mansion for more than half a year.
The night before leaving, Qingqing pulled him to sit on the roof of the side room of the Duwei Mansion, and sat together for a long time, Qingqing said happy things and made Ji Feiyun laugh, but in fact, she had tears in her eyes all the time, and she secretly wiped them with her hands several times.
Finally, she took off a pendant from her neck, it was a yellow and white wolf tooth, a little old, worn with a red rope, Qingqing personally took it around Ji Feiyun's neck, and said to him: "With this wolf tooth, just like she is always by his side." ”
Ji Feiyun's heart was warm at that time, and there seemed to be this green body temperature and body fragrance left on the wolf tooth, Qingqing said that this wolf tooth was left to her by her mother, saying that it was handed down from her grandfather's ancestors.
Qingqing also asked Ji Feiyun for a gift, Ji Feiyun looked at Qingqing in a daze, and then groped on his body, touched for a long time, and found a dagger, which he sold in Luofeng City.
Qingqing took it and looked at it over and over, she loved it very much, she had been dancing with Liu Yuanhai since she was a child, and her love for weapons was better than her daughter's rouge gouache.
Ji Feiyun saw that she liked it, and he was also happy in his heart, in fact, he still had a jade pendant on him, but it was bought by him and Chen Yue in Blackwater City, and at that time, one piece per person, this could not be taken out and given away.
Qingqing agreed with him, when she settled down in Bingzhou, she would go to him, and then accompany him to find his father's next way, Ji Feiyun wanted to ask several times, where would she go to find him then, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed back, forget it, if he finds Chenyue, Qingqing will come to him again, what should he do?
When he left the next day, Qingqing didn't come to see him off, he felt a sense of loss in his heart, and after saying goodbye to Liu Yuanhai and others, he led the horse out of Weiwu City, in fact, Qingqing stood on the tower of Weiwu City early, looking at his back and going away, until she couldn't see it, she was still looking.
This time out, Liu Yuanhai gave him a coil, he walked all the way to inquire, met the city, went to stay for one night, and then went to the wine shop to drink and listen to people's chat, hoping to hear some useful news, such as about the Yingmen, Zhuangmen, these Jianghu sects, but along the way, things backfired, and I heard a lot of news, but there was no information about these two sects.
Most of them are talking about the war between the imperial court and the Xianbei and other tribes, knowing that Liu Yuanhai has gone to Jinyang, Bingzhou, and Liangzhou has been taken over by Xuanwei General Ma Long, and has started a war with the Xianbei tribe, those scholars who drink and chat sneered at the rebellion of the Xianbei and other tribes in the northwest against the imperial court, thinking that they are tantamount to ants in front of the orthodox god dynasty in the world, and they can't shake the imperial court at all.
Ji Feiyun only laughed at these discussions, but although he didn't hear anything he was particularly concerned about, he had a general understanding of the Sima Dynasty and the eight great families that controlled the Sima Dynasty.
Another gain is that he has learned to drink, when he was in the Duwei Mansion, he would occasionally accompany Liu Yuanhai and them to drink, but often on the grounds of practicing martial arts, he drank very little, and now he is alone along the way, he has nothing to do, and no one to talk to, and wine has become a good thing for him to relieve the loneliness in his heart.
A person, a horse, a sword, and a pot of wine, wandering in the rivers and lakes, it is also chic, but he did not let himself become a Zhuangmen Sword Immortal, but first became a little drunkard.
Along the way, in addition to diligent cultivation of the mind, he also took out the volume of boxing that Hu Yanbiao gave him, he looked carefully, this volume of boxing is called "Heavenly Wolf Fist", according to legend, it is handed down by the Xiongnu clan, in ancient times, the ancestors of the Xiongnu lived in the bitter cold land in the north of the desert, life was extremely difficult, the weak physique of the clansmen, either frozen to death or was bitten to death by wolves, and then the warriors of the clan imitated the training methods of the snow wolf, and created the "Sky Wolf Fist", the clansmen practiced day and night, the body became strong, and a strong tribe was established.
After months of hard training in the desert, coupled with the cultivation of Zhuangmen's Taixuan Qi cultivation, Ji Feiyun's body has become strong and strong. He doesn't care if it's useful or not, anyway, in addition to practicing the Taixuan Qi Cultivation Technique every day, he also practices "Heavenly Wolf Fist" three times, which can be regarded as living up to Hu Yanbiao's gift of boxing.
When he picked up this book, his mind suddenly sounded when he asked Chen Yuanfu about his ambitions, and Chen Yuanfu replied to the eight words: vertical and horizontal, rampant in the world.
On this day, he was drinking in a restaurant in Danyang City, and finally heard a message related to him, a table of drinking guests, like people from some gang, they whispered about it while chatting. Zizhulin's three words, Ji Feiyun heard his master say that Zizhulin is where the village gate was in the past, and it is still where the village gate is, but the village gate is no longer the original village, they have been mixed up with the famous family, and the previous village gate is now only him and his master, and there is a Qingqing who he doesn't know if he is a Zhuangmen person.
Those people said that Cui Shan, the head of the Cui family in Xiangyang, would hold his 60th birthday recently, and many people from the imperial court and martial arts would go, including people from Zizhulin Zhuangmen. This news is too important to Ji Feiyun, he didn't know where to start, and he ran blindly along the way, but now that he has such a point, it can be regarded as giving him a direction, and his heart is clear.
He paid for the wine and food, filled the wine jug he carried with him before going out, led the horse, asked passers-by for directions, got on the horse and went straight to Xiangyang.
