Chapter 25 The wind and rain are like dark clouds and people are like ghosts (1)
The Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/Chapter 25: The wind and rain are like dark people and ghosts (1)
In the sixth year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, in the summer of June, Wancheng.
When the Han Dynasty fell, the new emperor Wang Mang accepted the abdication, changed the country's name to Xin and the year's name to Shin and founding the country. It has been five years since then.
There was no cloud in the sky, only the blue sky and the blazing sun. The sunlight emitted heat nakedly, shining on the earth and on Liu Ji's back.
Liu Ji was naked and his short shirt was casually placed on his back, revealing his bronze skin and his head and body covered in sweat. He cursed softly, scraped a stream of sweat on his body with his fingers, and shook his hands heavily, and a stream spilled on the ground.
He was too strong and tall. The stronger he was, the more he was, the more afraid of heat. At this moment, his throat was almost thirsty and smoke came out.
However, the team entering the city was still long and moved so slowly that it seemed to be still.
"Damn it, let's see if the city gate is left alone? I'm slow to eat shit. I'm so thirsty!"
Liu Ji muttered, and once again shaved the sweat from his body with his fingers and threw it off heavily. A man dressed in a rural farmer in front of him also splashed a few drops of sweat. He stared at him and turned around and was about to start cursing. But when he saw Liu Ji, who was two heads taller, glared at him and stopped talking, and turned back embarrassedly.
"Brother, if you want to drink water, I have it here."
He patted Liu Ji on the shoulder with one hand. He suddenly turned his head and saw that behind him was a young man in his twenties, dressed in a scholarly manner, looking at him with a smile.
The young man was not tall, only to Liu Ji's shoulders. His appearance looked ordinary, and his tone was even gentle. He was now untiring the water bag from his waist and handing it to Liu Ji.
"If you don't dislike me, drink mine first. I'm afraid the team entering the city will have to queue for a while." The young man who was studying smiled again and raised the water bag in his hand to Liu Ji.
"Thank you!" Liu Ji quickly snatched the water bag from the young man's hand, and raised his head and gushed it up. However, compared to his size, the water bag was not big. It was like a long whale sucking water, and the water bag was empty.
Liu Ji took a few sips of the last drop of water without feeling at all, and then reluctantly returned the water bag to the young man: "I'm sorry, I'm so thirsty, I'll drink it all for you if I accidentally..."
"It's okay." The young man didn't look heartbroken at all and replied with a smile: "I'm not thirsty. It's just that the water bag is hanging on my body and I feel so heavy. I have to thank you brother for helping me lose some weight."
"Hey! What's this! Don't be polite! You're just a little busy!" Liu Ji really took the young man's words seriously, patted his shoulder with his big hand, and grinned and laughed.
Liu Ji turned around and followed the team forward little by little. He watched the queue move forward slowly, and was really impatient. He simply turned around and started talking to the young man.
"Hey, hey, you said just now that it was too early to line up. What's going on?" Liu Ji reached out and poked the young man's chest.
"What, brother, are you the first time you came to Wancheng?" The young man was stabbed twice by Liu Ji, but he was not angry. He just asked with a smile.
"Yes, I have been growing up in Bowang. This is the first time in Wancheng. Good, I really didn't expect there were so many people! It seems that I'm afraid I won't be able to line up until dark!" Liu Ji stared at a pair of big bull-like eyes, and looked at the long dragon in front of him, looking unhappy.
"It's not long, at this speed, you can get in in about an hour." The young man smiled and shook his head: "You know that there are too many bandits in recent years, so when you go into and out of the city, you have to check it carefully. Especially..."
The young man shook his head and said nothing further.
"Damn, I have to check it out like this? Where do I look like a bandit?" Liu Ji lowered his head, looked at his dark skin and solid muscles, and rolled his eyes.
"Then...Brother, what are you doing?" The young man also looked up and down at Liu Ji's muscles, with an admiration expression on his face: "I practice so strongly, I must have practiced martial arts since I was a child!"
"Hi! You're a big deal! I'm a farmer in Bowang! I just often fight since I was a child. Thanks to this outfit, my parents gave me, I haven't lost the fight since I was a child. Even if I face more than a dozen people, I can still beat them up!" Liu Ji hit his chest with his fist, looking gloomy.
"Then, what are you doing in Nanyang?" the young man asked curiously.
Liu Ji suddenly lowered his head and hummed with a little discouraged voice: "Can I farm or raise me? The family has less than ten acres of land. I have to support my parents, I, two younger brothers and three sisters... My father said that when I was young, I ate more than other children, and now I eat more than the whole family. No matter how strong I am, I don't have that much land for me to plant. Why not go to Wancheng to see if there is any work to do and support myself? In fact, before I came, I had already figured out a way out!"
"Where to go? What's the way out?" the young man asked with his eyes wide open.
"Hmph..." Liu Ji lowered his head mysteriously and quietly came to the young man's ear: "Be a! You! Hero!"
"Ah?!" The young man seemed to be startled, but Liu Ji pressed his head down and stared hard: "Shh! Sigh down! What should I do if someone hears it?"
Although Liu Ji's voice when he lowered his voice, the volume was louder than normal conversations. However, looking at his thick and tall body and twisted muscles, who dared to talk to him?
"Oh..." The young man nodded quickly and whispered as Liu Ji's instructions: "Then how does this ranger... work as a magician?"
