Dawn. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The ice and snow have not disappeared, and the residual ice has broken the bridge.

She turned her head to look, and saw a chaise longue under the eaves, and a dirt dog lying under it with squinting eyes. The earth dog was fat and round, and when he saw outsiders, he turned around, and half of his body had countless scars. It barked a few times and woke the old man in the chaise longue.

The old man's hair was full of flowers, and he stretched his limbs lazily, and his wrinkles were deep, and his hands had cocoons thicker than cowhide, and when he rubbed his palms against the dog's head, the dog stopped barking.

It likes to be rubbed by these big hands and its tail is wagging non-stop.

In its memory, there are also younger, more powerful hands, often caressing it gently.

The old man took a sip of wine, coughing as he drank, and the more he drank, the more violent he became.

He was supposed to be holding a knife.

His posture is that the knife never leaves his hand.

So even if the knife is gone, he still leaves some space between his arms.

There are three jujube trees in front of the house, and they may freeze to death because of the cold this year.

Falcon didn't say a word and let out a chill, and said, "It's here?"

"It's here. Before the bridge was broken, three jujube trees. She took off the treasure knife on her back, and looked closely, it was the strange knife with nine rings.

She took a few steps before the ring crashed into an ethereal sound.

In such a quiet environment, it is clear and moving.

The old man heard the sound of the knife ring and jumped up from the chaise longue. He said, "Sheng'er, you're finally back......"

When the earth dog saw the living people coming, he suddenly barked loudly.

The old man said coldly: "No, you are not Sheng'er. Why do you carry his sword?"

The ethereal voice drew closer and stopped, right in front of the old man.

Qiu Rong said: "This is his knife." ”

The old man said, "It's also my knife." ”

Qiu Rong said, "Do you know what's going on?"

The old man said: "The knife is in the person, and the knife is dead." ”

The cold wind howled, and the date trees dropped their last dead leaves. Its juice has long since dried up, isn't it the fate of the people of the rivers and lakes? The old swordsman has ushered in the final season, the only difference is that he has no tears to shed.

for his eyes were blind.

He was moody, just sat on the chaise longue and stared at the date palm quietly.

He didn't seem to notice that the date palm tree was dying.

When he was still in his youth, he retreated to Yangzhou with his beloved woman, and on the day when the dates were full of branches, the two ushered in the most valuable treasure in the world, a child.

- "Like me or like you?"

- "It's all like." ”

- "Oh?"

- "There is his father's majesty and majesty, and his mother's beauty and moving." ”

It's as if everything is at your fingertips.

The old man said: "Can I ask, how did he die? There is no need to hide it, I just want to know if he is a boy of my Li family." ”

Qiu Rong said: "Sacrifice your life for the country, Cheng is a great hero." ”

"Hero, hahahaha!" Hero ......" The old man's tone flickered between strength and weakness, but he waved his hand again, signaling her to leave.

The earth dog is barking again.

It smelled the familiar scent of the knife, but it didn't wait for the big strong hands.

The two walked back to the broken bridge.

Hayabusa didn't say anything: "What a hero." The most noble in the world are heroes, and the most useless are still heroes. ”

Qiu Rong stared at him solemnly and said, "Seven years have passed, and I have to make a choice. ”

Falcon didn't say anything: "You have already planned, it seems that visiting the Li family is just a cover." This choice must be important. ”

Qiu Rong said: "In fact, three months ago, Taiwei Zhu secretly convened generals from all over the country to gather in Yangzhou today to discuss major matters. ”

Hayabusa didn't say anything, "How big can it be?"

Qiu Rong said: "Seek power and usurp the throne." ”

Hayabusa said without saying a word, "You want to thwart his plot?"

Qiu Rong said: "On the contrary, I want to help him." ”

When the emperor was incompetent, Falcon didn't expect that Taiwei Zhu was not a good fruit, it can be seen that Qiu Rong is confident, and it seems that she also has her own plans.

This woman was decisive, and she was terrified.

Hayabusa said silently: "You say that the emperor is incompetent, but I don't think so. ”

Qiu Rong said, "Oh?"

Falcon didn't say anything, "Because they have already discovered Taiwei Zhu's plan. He deliberately pointed the hilt behind him.

Qiu Rong looked behind her, and there were indeed two people dressed in civilian clothes, looking suspicious.

Falcon said silently: "They have been following us for three days and three nights, and they should be masters of the court, monitoring all movements. ”

Qiu Rong sneered: "Then let's pretend to play and wait and see what happens." ”

She had already taken Falcons' silent arm and said, "Go." ”

Caught by such a pair of delicate arms, no one will refuse.

Winter.

The castle tower and the lake were covered with ice and snow, as if it had been white since ancient times.

Yangzhou is not in March, it was originally lively, even in the cold days, there are still people coming and going. Everyone sells along the street, selling miscellaneous things, and there are even diviners who run the rivers and lakes, and old people who tell stories on their backs.

"Eh, let's take a look, don't want money!" The diviner kept a small beard, and his face was sharpened, as if it had been cut with a knife. When he saw the two of them walking together, he stopped, "Are you two interested in divination?"

Hayabusa said silently, "My life depends on my sword." ”

The divination said: "There is a god who looks up three feet up, and he has the right to pay for alms." ”

Qiu Rong saw the two of them following closely behind him, so he shook off a few taels of silver and said, "Please give me a divination." ”

The diviner said, "Can you let me see the girl's palmistry?"

The diviner said that he was looking at palmistry, but he closed his eyes and said: "Your life is rare through the ages, I can't say it clearly, but if you can meet three noble people in your life, you will be a romantic person." ”

Qiu Rong said: "Please advise Mr." ”

Divination hexagram: "The first is the Seven Evils, with the help of this person, the wind is surging, the second is the broken army, this person is just like his name, is a strange person who swept thousands of armies, and finally is the greedy wolf star, poor Dao Bu to the present, only once I have seen the greedy wolf life, although the girl can leave a name in history, but in the end it backfired." ”

Qiu Rong said: "Thank you for your advice, this ...... beside me Can you?"

Falcon Buyan was disgusted with crooked ways, so he had a plan and said, "I have been injured in my right hand, and my husband is very good, can I touch it through my clothes?"

He held out his right hand.

The diviner said: "Where and where, I have to be ......" He suddenly stopped talking.

He flicked his hands apart like an electric shock, his facial features distorted, and cold sweat broke out. He picked up his luggage and ran!

The falcon said without saying a word: "Brother, is my hexagram fierce or auspicious?"

But the diviner panicked in the crowd, and he had long been nowhere to be seen.

The two walked on the long street, coinciding with the wandering painter's set, he saw that the two were very good matched, so he had already made the scene of Yangzhou City, every grass, every wood, painted the young swordsman and the silver-haired girl's whereabouts. Because it was taken from a real person, he couldn't help but draw more slowly. But he drew very carefully, and painted the long flowing hair of the swordsman and the proud style of the girl. When he finished painting it, he thought it was so ordinary, so he had to hide it in a box and wait for someone to buy it one day.
