There was a strong wind in Lu Dongling.
There were fewer Rain Water this year than in previous years, so even after the strong wind, the sky in this quiet corner of the border town was still a little gray.
An ordinary carriage, which had just changed its new wheel, left the inn in the west of Ludong Mausoleum. It took a long time to pass through the whole Ludong Mausoleum, out of the Dongcheng Gate, and went on slowly to the east, disappearing from the sight of the soldiers standing on the gate.
Except that the driver was a handsome 15-or 16-year-old girl who surprised the soldier for a moment, the carriage which continued eastward did not attract any more attention.
The Ludong Mausoleum in the city is like an inner city, with an outer wall of burnt earthen bricks as high as five feet. The mansion of Lingfu officials accounts for only 1/3 of the buildings facing north, and the rest are barracks and training grounds.
This is not unique, since the founding of the Yun-Qin Empire, all the mausoleums, except for the size of the provincial capital, all the styles are in this pattern.
At the moment, several huge red candles were lit in the Ling Government House in the north of Lu Dongling House.
These huge red candles drove away the last glimmer of gloom in the deep hall covered with blue slate, but the flickering candlelight reflected on Li Xiping's face, which was an appropriate indication of his swaying mood at the moment.
As the supreme officer of 4 million people in Ludongling, Li Xiping, with a short stature and a slender face, does not look amazing.
There are even greasy traces on the cuffs of a gray robe, but a mountain of weight, and even some unbreathable smell of iron blood, is emanating from this unremarkable-looking, skinny half-man.
"my Lord..." A middle-aged man with thick eyebrows standing upright and dressed in black light leather armor could not stand the long silence and pressure, but he only saluted to the supreme officer of Lu Dongling, and only shouted his excellency. Before he had time to say anything substantive, Li Xiping, who only looked like an ordinary ledger of a caravan, took a deep breath and spit it out. Glancing at the young man with thick eyebrows,you take Zhang Zhendong to scar Liu and go to Heishui."
"Blackwater?" The middle-aged man with thick eyebrows habitually straightened up, but a look of shock spread over his face in an instant. Some hesitant adults, isn't this a bit too heavy?
The middle-aged man with thick eyebrows suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and he knew very well that Li Xiping, who had been beaten by the Dragon and Snake Border Army, would have the same kind of determination. In the eight years of this Ludong Mausoleum, he had never seen Li Xiping look so gloomy and in such a stern tone.
"is that a human being, even a handmaid with such a bearing?" He nodded and couldn't help asking.
"handmaid?" Li Xiping immediately sneered, and his squinted eyes became even colder.you've also been in the border army, and the less you should be, the less you have ideas, the easier it is to survive."
"Yes, your excellency." The middle-aged man with thick eyebrows had another chill in his heart and bowed, ready to retire, but at this moment, Li Xiping thought a little, but arranged for me to let Uncle Liu drive, and I was going to Lulin Town myself.
The middle-aged man with thick eyebrows was stunned, and his eyes were more shocked, but he didn't say much this time. He bowed humbly and then retreated.
When the middle-aged man with thick eyebrows withdrew from the gate of the Ling Government House, Li Xiping picked up the tea on the table in front of him, but his hand paused in the air for a moment, but he could no longer control his inner anger. With a bang, the tea in his hand was smashed to the ground.
There is more speechless anger than seeing the depravity of a brother who has been in danger of life and death and personally sending such a brother to a dead end. Even in the border army, Li Xiping, who has been tempered to make people spit on his face, is unable to control this emotion, with violent ups and downs in his chest.
But after only a few dozen breaths, his unspeakable anger calmed down, and without changing his gray robe splashed with tea, he walked out of the mausoleum where the sun had already shone in.
As soon as he walked out of the gate, two soldiers dressed in yellow quickly entered the Lingdu House and cleaned up quickly, while he stepped into a carriage that had been prepared outside the door.
The carriage was driven by a gray-haired old man out of Ludong Mausoleum, through the town of Wusuo and the meadow of Shili Beach, across Heishui, and finally entered the town of Lulin.
Soon, Li Xiping, dressed in a gray and dull gray robe, walked out of Lulin Town on foot. After the horse-drawn carriage driven by a girl in a blue shirt passed by a few days ago, the governor, who looked older than he really was, looked up at the sky. But he broke a branch by the side of the road and walked slowly toward another town. The more he walked, the straighter his back became. The branch in his hand seemed to be more and more like a knife, a sword dragged to the ground.
……
A chubby middle-aged man and a good-looking woman led a beautiful girl with red circles under their eyes and sent the carriage out of town, with an old yellow dog slowly following the three men.
Lin Xi sat in the cushioned carriage and waved hard at the three people and the old yellow dog who still wanted to follow. His eyes were also red.Dad, Mom and Sister, please go back, Dad." the wine you missed was hidden under my bed and soaked into medicinal wine. If you want me to drink it twice a day. Mom, you have to take care of yourself and get cold again, and sister, be good, my brother will bring you more fun, and Ah Huang, don't think about those two birds.
"Wow..." Lin Qian (a name of person ) was fine, but as soon as she heard Lin Xi's farewell cry and watched the carriage speed up, she immediately flattened her mouth and burst into tears.
The good-looking woman immediately burst into tears.you little bastard!" The chubby middle-aged merchant seemed to be about to scold Lin Xi, but after a curse, he secretly wiped the corners of his eyes and looked at the drifting carriage, but the chubby middle-aged merchant also shouted,son of a bitch, don't talk nonsense after you go out, it's not like Lulin Town outside!"
"Dad, you've only been to the next mausoleum as far as you can in your life." In normal times, Lin Xi might have said so, but today, Lin Xi nodded and said,Yes, Father," with a voice enough for the three people at the mouth of the town to hear.
"son of a bitch." The middle-aged merchant muttered and cursed again, but his eyes were completely confused.
All the way north, the carriage could no longer be seen at the entrance of the town and the figure of an old yellow dog. Until the outline of the whole town of Lulin could not be seen, Lin Xi put down the curtain of the window and sighed slightly. Leaned against the cushion in the carriage.
Although he had never been out of Lulin Town, he was in no hurry to see the scenery along the way. He knew very well that at the speed of this carriage, in this equally vast world, he would certainly see vomiting in different places in the next few days.
Although in the past two years, he has fully integrated into the world and accepted his current identity, but this scene can not help but remind him of a lot of things.
The last time he traveled to school and boarded a train that people in the world could not understand, he was alone, and the father, who had been out in the tea business for many years, only called him for four years of college at once. And his mother, who only sucks at gambling and has parted ways with his father for five or six years, is not there at all, perhaps even if he is admitted to college at all.
A short and fat father, a smart and obedient little sister, who had some wealth, had no worries about food and drink, and did business shrewdly, but he could kneel in the temple for two days and two nights for the blessing of a serious illness, a smart, lovely and obedient little sister, a tough-looking mother, a quiet town in a quiet corner, he was very content with such a life.
But the two consecutive carriages broke his calm and contented life.
Although the younger girl was an identity, it was obvious that she had something to do with the carriage.
"what kind of place is Qingluan College?"
At the thought of the horror of the young girl with a serious expression, Lin Xi's face suddenly had some strange look.
Then he took out a long, narrow cloth bag from the parcel beside him and untied it.
Inside was a sharp, shiny dagger.
He took the gleaming dagger, hid it under his sleeve and gently opened the curtain in front of him.
The old man's hair was gray and uncombed, messy as a ball of cotton. With the bumps of the wheels, the old man sitting in the front of the car with his back to Lin Xi seemed to be dozing off.
Lin Ximo looked at it silently for a moment, and then made an incomprehensible move.
His face was calm, and even with a look of curiosity and expectation, he stabbed the old man silently with a dagger.
"Boo!"
The air around the peaceful carriage suddenly became cold, and the old man did not look back, but Lin Xi's heart suddenly contracted violently, and a chilly chill permeated his whole body. He could not see the scene at all. His whole person flew out of the carriage and fell heavily into the bushes by the side of the road. He was breathless, and his whole body seemed to be broken.
"you want to do it?" The carriage stopped, and the gray-haired old man looked at Lin Xi, who had fallen miserably, with a chill on his face. The dagger in Lin Xi's previous hand was strangely bent between his two fingers.
"poof!"
Lin Xi managed to catch his breath and spit out a piece of dead leaf and dust in his mouth, but in the face of the chilling old man, he seemed to have got the answer and said to himself,it turns out that there are really great masters in this world."
"can you fly? Do you have a flying sword? Magic? In the startled eyes of the gray-haired old man, the young man, whose face was covered with blood and managed to get up, looked at him and asked such a sentence solemnly.
Lin Xi, who did not get an answer, shook his head helplessly, but he gently spit out two words.
Then Lin Xi really went back to the carriage, when he took out the dagger in the package, he leaned against the cushion in the car, his clothes were clean, and there was no blood on his face.
The bent dagger lay well in his package, while the gray old man, who had just shown a suffocating murderous intention and a sea of iron blood, still looked like an ordinary bad old man, dozing off at the front of the car from time to time, harmless to human and animal.
In the bright spring light, the carriage, which had never happened, headed north all the way.
