Chapter 213 The Accident of Wandering
Lunch was also eaten at Zhe Zhi Lan Ting, but not with Jiang Taixu, which made Shen Kuang relax a little.
Wen Jiu also consciously did not come to disturb, so there were only Shen Kuang and Jiang Ning at lunch.
The two chatted about many things and what their future would be like.
A moment of leisure and comfort.
After lunch, Wei Xiuge and Yuan Daguang came to see Shen Kuang. Friends who were originally at the wine table could now use this opportunity to have a drink.
The three of them were surrounded by mountains and far away from each other, chatting without realizing it.
Because he had a pleasant chat with Yuan Daguang and Wei Xiuge, Shen Kuang left Zhilanting in the evening.
The evening breeze is blowing gently, the heat is gradually disappearing, the sun is setting in the west, and it is a good time of the day again.
The young man in green shirt is still dressed as he was in the morning and has changed back to his previous appearance. The most lacking thing in Kangzhu City right now is knights like Shen Kuang. There are many experts and strangers here, so most people choose to keep a low profile. I won't deliberately provoke people in the world.
Shen Kuang still didn't attract much attention on the way back. When passing by Changxiu Street, Shen Kuang noticed that all the stalls, large and small, had been removed one after another. Some of them were occupying the ground before they had time to leave. It was inevitable to be scolded.
Because the space occupied is in front of the gate of Qin Lou Chu Pavilion, the mothers inside don't care if you move quickly or not, as long as it delays their business at night, it will kill them, so they won't look good.
Therefore, on Changxiu Street, there is not only excitement in front of the door, but also noisy and curses. In short, the appearance of the market is clearly revealed.
Turning the corner, the afterglow from the west fell straight down, and some light also fell on Shen Kuang.
There are many people walking on the street, and at this time of night, there are also many children returning from school. They hang out in twos and threes, chasing and playing, and they are so happy.
When several young children passed by Shen Kuang, they couldn't help but turned around and took a look at Shen Kuang out of curiosity. They just didn't take a second look. After that, the children accelerated their pace and moved forward quickly in excitement. It seemed that After a brief glance, I felt chivalrous.
When Shen Kuang saw this, he smiled.
Looking at their appearance, one can't help but think of himself as a child, how similar he was to them. The difference is that at that time, the object of Shen Kuang's envy was his master, but now he has become the object of envy of other children.
This short period of just over ten years has supported the childhood of another group of children.
The setting sun lengthened Shen Kuang's figure, and then several waves of children passed by one after another. Without exception, they would look back.
There were also children who were so excited that they walked on the street with their bare hands like they were holding swords, and then shouted at an unexpected place in front of them: "Where can the thief escape!"
After that, he ran away with brisk steps.
In the eyes of young people, the world is about chivalry, romance with swords, punishment of rape and elimination of evil, and the breeze blowing in the lap.
Such a time is inevitably intoxicating.
A long-lost sense of laziness suddenly came to Shen Kuang's heart. He took off the long sword wrapped in linen behind his back, but held it with one hand without untying it. Like the child, he made an interesting movement, but he didn't shout or make any move. Run out.
Probably because of the infection from the children, he was not in a hurry, so he walked very slowly for the rest of the road.
It was already dark when I slowly returned to the inn. Shen Kuang had dinner at a roadside stall, a bowl of Yangchun noodles and a sesame seed cake, which made me very full.
There were especially many guests in the inn tonight. When the busy waiter saw Shen Kuang returning, he put down his work and greeted Shen Kuang: "Sir, would you like to send you dinner?"
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Go up?"
Shen Kuang smiled and said slowly: "You are busy with your business, I have already eaten outside. Oh, by the way, why is it so lively tonight?"
The waiter also laughed when he heard this: "It seems that you don't know, sir, that not long ago, the adults of the Supervisor Tiansi have lifted the martial law in Kangzhu City and said that they can freely enter and exit the city tomorrow, so these heroes I want to take advantage of this last night to have a few more drinks with you."
After the waiter finished speaking, Shen Kuang was a little surprised and said: "Have all the prairie people been caught?"
"I don't know much about this young one. He has probably been caught. With the Supervisor Tiansi and Diwang present, and the Tianluo Diwang suppressing him, the group of prairie people must have nowhere to hide." The waiter smiled, his words full of content. It is the confidence in Jian Tiansi and Diwang.
The store was busy at the moment, so Shen Kuang didn't disturb the waiter too much. After chatting for a while, he went upstairs.
The room was quiet, and Shen Kuang lit the oil lamp.
In front of the desk in the room, Shen Kuang was writing at his desk.
Although he had planned to visit Lingshan City and Qiuluo City later, Shen Kuang couldn't help but want to write a letter to Lin Wanzhao, Shiyu, and Xiang'er first.
When he was not writing, Shen Kuang never thought that he would have so much to say to them. This journey had really gone too far.
We haven’t seen each other for a long time. From the beginning of uncertainty to the fact that now the dust has settled, Shen Kuang finally dared to say more from his heart. It’s not all charming love words, it’s just what he wants to say from the bottom of his heart.
He stopped writing, and after more than half an hour, Shen Kuang slowly started writing.
I said a lot of things, some about myself, and some about them. How are you living these days? Are you busy with work? Are you happy?
After that, Shen Kuang called the waiter, gave him some more money, and asked him to send the letter to the nearest post station, and the letterer would also send the letter to Lingshan City and Qiuluo City.
After saying what he wanted to say, Shen Kuang suddenly felt physically and mentally empty.
He walked to the window and looked from a distance. The lights were on and a breeze was blowing in through the window.
It was like going back to the scene of him enjoying the shade under the big peach tree in Hongni Lane when he was a child, but now he was the only one.
Shen Kuang remembered that when he was a child, he heard the teacher in the school say the word "growing up". The teacher said at that time that growing up is a long and endless farewell, a gentle and cruel farewell.
When I first heard these words when I was young, I could hardly understand their profound meaning. It was only now, after walking through this life and death scene, that Shen Kuang slowly understood their meaning.
Farewell is the farewell we say to those we know well, and farewell is the distant gaze of everyone standing behind us. They watch our figures disappear into the crowd, pass by in a hurry, and look forward to that day in the same place. We will appear again.
Sometimes, they get what they want, and just sometimes.
Shen Kuang thought that he had grown up now, both in terms of age and state of mind.
The journey is not far, but the journey is so long.
I don't know when, a fireworks suddenly bloomed in the night sky in the distance, and then several fireworks bloomed one after another, lighting up the night of Kangzhu City in an instant.
Shen Kuang looked far away and took a few more glances.
Under the night, on a long and remote street, four figures were walking slowly.
Several fireworks in the distant night sky also attracted their attention. Tang Mu followed the sound and looked without stopping for much longer. However, the three people behind Tang Mu were extremely sensitive to the movements around them. Even this scene of fireworks could There are many possibilities.
Yuan Zhen finally agreed to Tang Mu and others' request to leave early. For this reason, Yuan Zhen used his troops in the city to
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
There are other hidden lines in the defense army. In order to prevent Tang Mu and others from being noticed by the people in charge of Tiansi on their way out, Yuan Zhen also specially invited Song Wan and others to have a gathering at Zhuxin Villa tonight, euphemistically calling it "Yang Yang". My injury is healed, thanks to Jian Tiansi.
The profound meaning of this is actually known to both of us.
Song Wan had listed Yuan Zhen as a suspect from the beginning, and tonight's invitation was actually something she expected. But the only thing she didn't know was what method Yuan Zhen would use to help Tang Mu and others hide the truth.
The Zhuxin Villa was very lively tonight. In addition to Song Wan and others, people from the Cui family of Qinghe, the Wang family of Jinyang, the Zhao family, the Li family, the Yuan family, etc. also came.
Yan Daoji did not come with Song Wan, and the reason was naturally very clear.
Before leaving Zhuxin Villa, Tang Mu also repeatedly thought about the accident that would happen tonight. Since Supervisor Tiansi dared to lift the ban tomorrow, it meant that they would definitely make a big move tonight, and this was also their last chance.
As night fell, Shen Kuang finished writing the letter and suddenly thought of walking around the city alone.
When going downstairs, Shen Kuang deliberately avoided the waiter's sight and took advantage of the crowd, so no one noticed him.
The liveliness of the evening was in sharp contrast to the dullness of a few days ago. Because the constraints of Supervisor Tiansi were loosened, more and more people dared to talk about the interception and assassination, and they smelled the meaning. , I am not joining in the fun tonight.
The reason Shen Kuang wanted to go for a walk alone was because he had nothing to do, and he also wanted to find out about the prairie people.
Although the ban on Kangzhu City will be lifted tomorrow, Shen Kuang does not think that the prairie princess who dares to lead a team into the hinterland of Wei alone will be caught easily.
If there really isn't, then tonight must be an invisible contest between the two sides.
In addition to Yan Daoji, the heavenly guards in the city tonight were divided into ten teams of ten and were secretly dispersed throughout the city.
As Shen Kuang walked along, he noticed two or three waves of people, which also confirmed Shen Kuang's idea from the side. The prairie princess must still be in Kangzhu City.
After walking with purpose for a long time, Shen Kuang, who found nothing, unknowingly arrived at Changdeng Street.
Changdeng Street is close to the west of the city. Relatively speaking, there are the fewest people here.
Shen Kuang was just wandering around aimlessly, so he didn't deliberately avoid the deserted Changdeng Street. The Wu's shop near the street was brightly lit, and he occasionally saw people coming and going. They were all in a hurry, as if they had something urgent to do.
Along the way, Shen Kuang did not see Wu Cisheng, but unexpectedly saw his master Yang Qian.
There was another middle-aged man beside Yang Qian, who seemed to have just come out.
The middle-aged man looked anxious, probably because something important happened, and even Yang Qian had no time to pay attention to the people around him.
After Shen Kuang walked sideways with the two of them, Yang Qian felt something and silently looked back. Looking at the back of the man in black with a sword on his back, Yang Qian seemed familiar, but he didn't think much about it.
After walking through Changdeng Street, Shen Kuang did not go any further. He changed the road and prepared to return the same way.
There seemed to be no way around the lively place, so Shen Kuang walked and quickly reached Changxiu Street.
Now, the lights on the street are like daylight, people are coming and going in an endless stream, and the noise is a bit louder than other places. Most of them are laughing and shouting. In short, they are full of various emotions.
Shen Kuang walked slowly by. Occasionally, the soft and waxy voice of a warbler would call the young hero to stop. Whenever Shen Kuang heard this, he would stop and take a look. He would smile back and continue moving forward. The girl's house also Don't force yourself, knowing that most of the time you are shy, just come here to see the world and smell the fragrance of powder.
