"Check out the people who came into the city tonight, especially the accompanying list of traveling merchants, and come to me after matching them one by one." Hua Yi ordered in a low voice outside the tent, "In addition, take care of Kazuo, Yuchun and his son, and let them Come see me tomorrow morning."
After speaking, Hua Yi hesitated for a moment, then added: "Don't startle the snake, go."
The guard responded and turned around to leave. Hua Yi waved his hands to tell the slaves near Wang's tent to retreat. He sat at the door with his hands folded behind his head. He looked up at the starry sky and calmed down slowly. There was a sentence that came out of his heart, and he thought to himself: I am really a dog who can't change my eating shit.
In the dead of night, Hua Yi couldn't help but put his ears on the Wang tent, trying to hear a little movement from inside, but unfortunately there was no sound at all, only the cries of autumn insects, and even the sound of the wind was indistinct. clear.
Looking back on the years since he escaped from the tribe he raised him when he was a teenager, Hua Yi only felt that all kinds of incidents were too difficult to look back on.
But even if you don't look back, if you look up, there is only a more difficult way forward.
He was restless and restless, he didn't know whether the path he was taking was right or wrong, and the worries in his heart were buried three feet deep, and the mountains and water were not visible on weekdays, but when he was in turmoil, he always made him feel restless.
I haven't cried heartily for twenty years, and I haven't laughed heartily for twenty years.
It's really... a useless life.
Hua Yi sat there for a moment, took out a handful of transparent silk thread from his bosom, and played with it for a while. This thing is called sky silk, which is very rare. It is brought from the south by merchants from afar. It is not afraid of fire, and ordinary men can pull it with all their strength. It is very tough, but also very soft.
He expected that Chang'an would come out soon, but that man didn't know how to restrain his temper, he wouldn't listen to others when he lost his temper. So he tied one end of the celestial silk under a big tree at the entrance of the king's tent by himself, and held the other end in his hand. The net was formed into a circle, and a small trap was set. Sitting there waiting for the rabbit to get up.
Sure enough, Chang'an couldn't lie down within two moments.
He was suddenly woken up by Hua Yi, and he asked those few words that made him angry when he heard them. He came up wildly and almost stabbed Hua Yi in the jaw. , Tell him to get out, so as not to let their king splatter three feet of blood in his tent.
Afterwards, I just felt a throbbing pain in my heart.
Chang'an has never been fussy about trivial matters, while Hua Yi, although a little sloppy, treats people extremely meticulously and considerately, and is very good at taking care of others.
The two have been together for several years, even if they do it occasionally, it is considered fun, and they rarely get real angry, and they have never been so angry as they are now.
Chang'an lay down for a long time before he breathed a sigh of relief. Counting the time, Hua Yi probably had already arranged the outside affairs, so he turned up from the bed, picked up a wooden knife embryo hanging in the corner, and decided to go out to find it. Hua Yi settles accounts.
Chang'an kicked open the door, raised his hand to pick up the thick blanket outside Wang's tent, just in time to see the animal-shaped Hua Yi struggling to curl up his body, lying prone in the corner, his snow-white fur was particularly dazzling in the night, he heard the movement, and was not energetic He raised his head to look at himself, let out a gurgling sound in his throat, and stood up dejectedly, like a big dog that was kicked out to be disgusted and coquettish.
This king of the East China Sea is almost unprecedented in his brazenness, yet he dares to pretend to be pitiful!
Chang An's suppressed anger suddenly burned to his forehead, and he wished he would grow eight arms, and they would swing each one round and beat him until he couldn't distinguish between his head and buttocks.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out, his ankle tightened. Chang'an had no idea that there was a small plot to be made. He only felt a strong force coming from under his feet, and then the sky spun and he was hung upside down—the person who set the trap thought. Zhouquan just tied his arms tightly, not strangling him, and he couldn't pull them apart for a while.
Chang'an: "..."
Hua Yi took the opportunity to lean over, the giant beast was tall, and it happened to be at eye level with the upside-down Chang An, he rubbed Chang An's face flatteringly, but Chang An's eyes were spitting fire, he only wanted to hear those rough guys spit on their father on weekdays I didn't take the scolding words to heart, and I couldn't remember a word at the critical moment.
Hua Yi licked him lightly again, flattering him very hard. Poor Chang An was hung in the air and had nowhere to focus, and couldn't dodge it, so he had to endure it. His face was slobbered by him. I wanted to peel off his skin.
Hua Yi saw that this tried-and-tested trick was useless, and Chang'an's anger was getting bigger and bigger, so he sighed, turned into a human form, raised his hands to hold Chang'an's upside-down face, and suppressed his skinless smile. He whispered: "Then I will say a few words to you. After you listen, I will let you down. I can beat or kill you as you please, okay?"
Chang An glared at him angrily.
"I saw you for the first time more than 20 years ago. At that time, you were still a little thing running all over the ground. You had a face like a cat. I don't know where the blood came from. I raised my hand and called you. , you walked away with me unsuspectingly. Since then, I have known that you and I are not the same kind of people. My father hates me for being iron and steel, just like you look at Qingliang now. We are both wearing A sheep with a wolf's leash and claws, I am still like this to this day, if you think I am not good or worthy of you, of course I have nothing to say."
It was rare for him to be so sincere, Chang An was stunned for a moment before he finished speaking.
"You said you're not afraid, but I can't help it. In nightmares at night, I can dream that people I used to know are facing me with swords, just like when I was a dead guest, the brothers who drank together the night before, and the next day. Their respective interests are fighting each other with their lives. I thought that the Undead would make me stronger, but now I find that I was wrong. The Undead itself is a group of rats in the trench, neither dead nor alive, hiding. become stronger?"
When Hua Yi said this, he paused involuntarily, feeling like he had opened his chest with his own hands, dug out the twisted and rotten heart that he didn't dare to see, and handed it to Chang An, his chest suddenly emptied. It was like standing in front of a mirror, spreading out all the gloom and ugliness of oneself, and exposing the insect-repelling heart and liver under the breeze and bright moon.
From such self-abuse-like self-ashamedness, he found a bit of indescribable unbridled relief.
"Do you still remember that Ah Ye is afraid of bugs?" He whispered to Chang'an, "For a person as big as her, what's so scary about a three-inch bug? But she can't help it... I can't help it either. Of course you I would think, even if someone betrayed me, so what? When my brother wanted to kill me, I gritted my teeth and escaped to live. There have been countless times when I was about to die, and I was not scared enough to pee my pants. Some things , When it happened, I might not think it was terrible, but when it didn’t happen, it made people feel exhausted.”
As soon as Hua Yi raised his hand, the silk that bound Chang'an suddenly snapped, and as soon as the hanging thing was loosened, Chang'an fell, but Hua Yi stretched out his hands and caught it firmly.
I only heard the man sigh in a low voice: "I know it's unreasonable to be mediocre and troublesome for unnecessary things, but I can't help it... Chang'an, because I am a mediocre person. If there is no second brother who makes me unable to live, I will I am afraid that I will spend my whole life in the northern tribe under the mountain."
Chang An unceremoniously raised his hand to knock his arm away, stood up, and took two steps back.
Hua Yi seemed to be half full before realizing that his arms were empty, rubbed his nose in a lonely way, and took his hands back.
The two stood deadlocked for a long while, then Chang An suddenly turned around, walked to the weapon rack in the yard, bent down and pulled out a long knife more than two feet long from the bottom.
Hua Yi's heart suddenly became aroused, the words "murder his husband" and "a clean break" were like two flies, buzzing and circling in his mind, turning his brain into rice milk - a blank .
… Then he watched Chang An walk out of the Wang Tent compound with his almost immobile eyes.
"You... what are you doing?" Hua Yi asked awkwardly with his tongue.
"Check to see if there are any foreign merchants in the city that don't match the list." Chang'an said coldly without looking back. After walking a little farther, Hua Yi heard him complain very lightly again, "You fucking Why is it so troublesome?"
Hua Yi was holding such a strange evaluation, and he couldn't find Beidi and stood there in a daze.
The king's city was still safe and sound, but the merchant's residence was already brightly lit, surrounded by a circle of city guards on night shift, standing side by side with torches in their left hands and swords in their right hands, trying to prevent even a fly from flying out. The list and the number of people reported by the sub-branch team were carefully counted. If there is a shortage of people, the entire team will be detained.
When Chang An arrived, he saw Lu Da whispering to another person with a sinking face.
"What?" Chang An asked.
"Five people are missing from a merchant team." Lu Da whispered in his ear, "There are only four assassins, and one person is missing."
Chang An glanced at him and said in a low voice, "Call their leader over."
Before he finished speaking, there was a commotion in the crowd, women's screams and men's curses erupted, and the leader of the small merchant team unexpectedly turned into a giant beast, Bite off the neck of an unsuspecting city guard with one bite.
Everyone was taken aback, the man didn't have animal patterns on his hands, Luda remembered it clearly.
Before he had time to explain, it was rare for Lu Da to do business in front of Chang An, and he never wanted to impress his teacher as being unfavorable in doing things, so he immediately drew out his sharp knife to meet him.
At this moment, an unattractive man suddenly came out from behind the giant beast, and two companions blocked his way, but he didn't hesitate to kill them one by one.
The knife in this man's hand is very strange, the tip is actually hooked, which happened to intercept Lu Da, the mysterious man withdrew his wrist very strangely, and the hook in front of the knife pinned Lu Da's sharp knife, his strength was actually enormous Unbelievably, Lu Da's whole body was almost dragged by him, and he slammed directly into the blade with the hooked knife.
Luda was forced to let go in a hurry, shrank his body dangerously, and dodged to the side in embarrassment for four or five steps. His sharp knife fell to the ground.
Luda's eyes were on fire.
In that weird merchant team, a group of shabby-clothed servants and apprentices were all armed with steel soldiers and iron weapons, and they soon formed a chaotic mess for the city guards.
Only the man with the hooked knife in his hand licked his lips, as if a red light flashed in his eyes, he rushed straight to Chang'an without hesitation.
He is different from others, he is simply a lunatic, he does not distinguish between the enemy and the enemy when he kills people, more than a dozen steps away, anyone who blocks his way, no matter who they are, all become the souls of his sword, that person's bloodshot eyes His eyes were only fixed on Chang'an.
Chang An didn't move his feet, and the moment he rushed over, he pulled out the long knife around his waist with one hand, and the drawn knife drew an arc in the air so fast that the shadow could not be seen clearly, and collided with the lunatic's weapon.
Chang'an's expression froze, at that moment his wrist was almost numb, he barely let go of the long saber, and he was forced to bend back to dodge the opponent's second saber.
This man has such a fast knife and great strength!
