Wedge that night
There are always some special beings in the world that cannot be described in words, and doing the right thing at the right time is a kind of spiritual happiness for everyone. But at the wrong time, to do something that you think is right, anyone will feel uncomfortable.
Like, on this rainy night!
The first year of the Great Zhou Shenlong, the second day of the second month of February. As the saying goes, on the second day of February, the dragon raises its head, and the imperial calendar reads: Marriage, travel!
On this day, it rained in Tianlan Province.
From the majestic rain in the morning to the rain like a silver line at dusk, on the second day of the second month of February, the sky over Tianlan Province has always been thundering.
At night, the rain was still falling in the sky. The moon is dark, and you can't see your fingers. There is also the wind, whistling by, and the two lanterns hanging in front of the old Bai family store are shaking violently, and there is even a feeling of "floating". In such a dark night, the two lanterns were like two ghost eyes, rising and falling with the wind, flickering and dimming.
"Poof!"
A slight sound sounded, a gust of wind blew, and the lanterns fluttered violently, and the candles in both lanterns were extinguished at the same time. The front of the Bai family's old store immediately fell into darkness, and in my ears, there was only the sound of rain falling under the eaves.
The door of the old Bai family store was open, and in such a dark and rainy night, the other shops on the long street were closed, but the dim lights were still swaying in the old Bai family's store.
Above the lobby, an oil lamp emitted a dim glow on the counter, which only allowed the counter and a table under the counter to see, and blurred a little farther away.
At this time, the owner of the Bai family's old store had already returned to the back hall, leaving only a small servant to stay here. Normally, on a rainy night like this, no one will come. But at this time, there was still a person in the store, so that the little guy couldn't close the door to rest for a long time.
This is a young man, who doesn't look very old, about 20 years old. He was wearing a black cape with a hat, and the hat was now on his head, and a face was buried deep in the shadows, and in the flickering dim light, it looked mysterious.
There was only a plate of peanut beans and a plate of beef in sauce on the table, and next to it was a bottle of old wine brewed by the old Bai family's old shop, and the most eye-catching thing was a sword on the very edge.
It was a broken sword, to be exact. Looking at the scabbard that was very badly damaged, you could clearly see that the sword inside was already rusty. Such a broken sword will not be thrown on the long street outside, and no one will bend down to pick it up. But the young man clearly cherished the sword, as evidenced by the frequent wiping of the scabbard.
Although the sword is broken, its appearance is very clean, and no one will pick it even if it is thrown outside, but no one can underestimate its existence. In the words of young people, a broken sword can also kill.
The young man has a pair of slender and white hands, and if such hands are used well, even if they hold a broken sword, they can harvest human lives. However, at this time, the young man's hand was not used to hold a sword, but a pair of chopsticks. He picked up a piece of sauced beef and put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly, then put down his chopsticks, drank the old wine in the wine glass next to him, his lips seemed to move in the shadows, and a very low voice came out of his mouth as if grunting.
"What a rainy night!"
This is the third sentence that the young man said after coming to the old Bai family's shop, it was low and difficult to hear, if you didn't listen carefully, I was afraid that it was just the sound of the wind blowing just now.
"Whoa!"
The wind outside was getting stronger and stronger, and the two lanterns in front of the Bai family's old shop were moaning in the wind, very painful. The night was getting darker and darker, as black as ink, and the rain falling in the sky seemed to be getting bigger.
......
......
In the east of the city, there is a large mansion covering an area of nearly 200 acres, and the owner of this mansion is Xinlin!
Tianlan Lin Family, this is a behemoth that makes everyone in Tianlan Province feel terrified. The Tianlan Lin family was still an insignificant small family twenty years ago, but a tragedy occurred twenty years ago, which brought the Lin family into the public's field of vision, and developed in just twenty years, becoming the largest family in Tianlan Province.
Twenty years ago, there was a tragedy in Tianlan Province, and those who heard about the tragedy at that time are still silent. No one wants to recall what happened twenty years ago, and even if the Lin family's mansion is built on top of the mansion twenty years ago, no one dares to say anything.
Because the Lin family is very big, and the people of the Lin family are very strong!
There are three hundred dead soldiers hidden in the Lin family manor, each of which is like a devil's existence, as long as he stares at you, even if you escape to the end of the cape, he will stick to you like a maggot on the tarsal bone, and then in a no-man's corner, he stretched out his fangs and bit you.
No one in Tianlan Province dared to touch the moldy head of the Lin family, especially after the marriage between the Lin family and the Zhuge family, the largest family in Beiyuan Province, even those masters who were bold and flying around at this time were silent one by one, and some even left Tianlan Province overnight.
In a word, the Lin family is a soil emperor in Tianlan Province, and his obscenity is like a mountain, which heavily shocks every ambitious person in Tianlan Province.
On such a dark and rainy night, the Lin family manor was brightly lit, with torches and candlesticks everywhere, rendering the entire Lin family manor as if it were day. It was full of people coming and going, bustling, turning the Lin family's manor into a trouble-like existence.
There are several ancient trees planted in the manor, and when spring comes, the old trees spit out new shoots, and the dead leaves hanging on the branches are falling with the strong wind.
In the first year of the Great Zhou Shenlong, on the second day of the second month of February, the little princess of the Zhuge family, the largest family in Beiyuan Province, Zhuge Ziyun married Lin Jinfeng, the young head of the Lin family, the largest family in Tianlan Province. The Lin family held a seven-day flowing water banquet in the manor to entertain everyone who came to congratulate, and today was the first day.
......
......
Time, the hour!
On the outskirts of Yudu, the capital of Tianlan, there is a barren mountain, the mountain is not high, most of it is sparse and thirty or forty zhang high, and a child can climb it.
There was a cave on a mountain that I don't know what kind of beast had dug out, and at this time there was a dim candlelight. Outside, the rain was falling and the chill was blowing, but the cave was filled with a sense of heat.
The cave is not big, only about a dozen steps square. It's not high, stand up, and raise your hand again to be able to touch the top. In such a cave, at this time there was a square table in the center, on which in addition to a candlestick, there were four cold plates, and next to it was a pot of old wine.
On the bench next to the square table, a young man dressed in a beautiful robe sits. He holds a book in his left hand and a pair of chopsticks in his right hand. After reading a few words in his mouth, he put a peanut bean in his chopsticks and threw it into his mouth, and then took a sip of old wine. "Reading when you have nothing to do is when you have nothing to do, that is, when you are happy in life. This young man in a gorgeous robe is interpreting this sentence beautifully.
Suddenly, the young man in the Chinese robe seemed to have thought of something, his brows furrowed slightly, and his mood was chaotic in an instant. He took a sip of old wine, put down the book in his hand, and looked at the night beyond the cave.
"The moon is dark and the night is killing, the wind is high and the sky is on fire!Yi Shui, this pot of wine, I salute you!" He suddenly grabbed the pot of old wine, stretched out his hand, and looked at the night outside the cave, there was a line of complex color circulating in his eyes at this time, and a low sound came out of his mouth.
......
......
Time, three o'clock!
In the old Bai family's store, the shopkeeper has begun to fall asleep, sitting on the high stool in the counter, his eyes seem to be open and closed, and his head is like fishing, raising and falling again.
At the table, the young man picked up the bottle next to him and poured it into the glass in front of him, and the wine slid down, gurgling out of the bottle and falling into the glass. Just when the glass was about to be full, there was no wine left in the bottle.
The young man in the shadows seemed to have a slight curl of the corners of his mouth at this time, he put down the wine bottle, looked up at the night outside, his lips moved, and he made a sound like a grunt:
"It's time!"
With that, he grabbed his glass and poured the last one down his throat. Then, he rose to his feet, touched his waist with his right hand, and grabbed the broken sword with his left hand.
The cloak was flicked up, and the young man walked out of the door of the old Bai family's shop, and there was a silver coin on the table at this time.
"Woo...!"
The wind outside was getting stronger and stronger, blowing up the dead leaves that had fallen from the trees on both sides of the long street, whirling in the air, not knowing where they were going to go.
At the same moment as the young man walked out of the shop, the rain finally became heavier, like soybeans, and fell from the invisible sky.
"The moon is dark and the night of killing, the wind is high and the sky is on fire!"
At this time, the young man suddenly raised his head, and his eyes looked through the heavy night, as if he saw someone in a cave waiting for his news.
"What a murderous night!" the young man grunted again.
As the words fell, the young man seemed to have taken out a small box from his bosom, took something out of it and stuffed it into his mouth. Then, in the whistling wind, there was a crisp "pop", and a small finger-sized flame suddenly burned from his hand.
The young man's head hung down, and he bit into the flames as he bit something in his mouth.
"Damn, the fine white sand that has been preserved for three years is missing another branch!" the flame went out, and a spark appeared on the young man's mouth, which was very conspicuous in the dark night. Then there was the annoyed grunt of the young man.
......
......
"Boom......!"
"Boom ......!"
As the young man grunted in annoyance, the raindrops began to thicken, and thunder began to roll in the distant sky. Lightning exploded like a spider's web in the distance, illuminating Yudu, the capital of Tianlan at this time.
The young man stepped into the rain and gradually drowned in the dark night of heavy rain.
......
......
In the first year of the Great Zhou Shenlong, on the second day of the second month of February, the sixty-seven members of the Tianlan Lin family were wiped out by a mysterious person, and the rivers and lakes rose again!
