It rains continuously.
Zhao Changhe no longer wore a raincoat or bamboo hat, and walked on the streets of the city with Cui Yuanyang holding a big umbrella.
Although the umbrella was big, he still covered Cui Yuanyang’s entire body. Half of his shoulders were exposed, and he was gradually getting wet from the rain, but he didn’t care.
Cui Yuanyang walked silently beside him, half a step behind. In my heart, I felt that this time of “running away from home” and “following my idol” felt a little bit like dying in the light, but not completely.
She could read the alienation and even contempt in Zhao Changhe’s heart for the aristocratic family, the feeling that everyone was not from the same group… Although he didn’t say it directly, he could still feel it vaguely.
Cui Yuanyang’s elbows were not turned outwards. Of course she was standing at her own home, and suddenly she felt far away from Zhao Changhe.
So die in front of the light.
And what should I say… I don’t know if I am being mean… It turns out that Zhao Changhe was rough, wild and heroic. For a girl who grew up in a gentle environment and was just at the age of rebelliousness, it was really good for her. A fatal attraction. But when we really got in touch with him, we found that he was actually very gentle and polite, and he was as considerate as a family member.
Maybe it’s normal. He is naturally wild among bandits, and he will naturally be polite when facing young ladies from aristocratic families, but the attraction is not that strong. It has the meaning of “oblivious to everyone”… uh… Is this really mean?
Scratching my head.
I scratched the rabbit’s ears.
Cui Yuanyang is in an inexplicably better mood.
In any case, his gentleness and politeness are really different from other people’s purposeful flattery. He is polite on the surface but unruly at heart.
So not all of them died.
Cui Yuanyang suddenly thought that the thing that made him feel far away seemed to be the thing that attracted him. Is this a contradiction?
The girl couldn’t tell the difference.
Anyway, he is indeed a gentleman. He didn’t trust the wrong person, right? When my father and brother are nagging me when I get home, I can feel confident.
Isn’t it just to follow the martial arts world? What can you achieve by practicing with your brother? Along the way, all the big families in the government and yamen welcomed and sent considerate people. When they arrived in Beimang, they never had a fight. With him, he stepped out of the martial arts world. How can it be compared to a crisis involving life and death?
Now Cui Yuanyang even looks at the beggar on the roadside with suspicion, always wondering if it is another killer.
“Hey…” Cui Yuanyang couldn’t help but quietly tugged on Zhao Changhe’s clothes: “Look at that beggar, his eyes are looking at us, is he a killer?”
“…” Zhao Changhe was too lazy to pay attention to her and continued to move forward.
“You are talking…”
“Is there a possibility that he is looking at you because you have been looking at him? Maybe he is thinking if this girl wants to give me money, why doesn’t she come over.”
Cui Yuanyang: “…What if he is really a killer?”
“We didn’t get close, so what can we do if he is really a killer?”
“Hidden weapon? Crossbow?”
“Then why don’t you hide in the dark and pretend to be a beggar and squat in the rain? Are you as mentally retarded as you?”
Cui Yuanyang opened his mouth and stopped talking angrily.
“I don’t have experience in the world of martial arts. Yue Hongling once told me something, but that kind of storytelling is not much different from reading novels. After all, I still have to experience it myself.” Zhao Changhe said slowly: ” But some things require the accumulation of experience, and some things can only rely on logical analysis… I am also afraid of encountering something that is completely illogical, which will really hurt my brain, such as your appearance.”
Cui Yuanyang: “…”
What is the word logic? Where is Zhaocuo? Where does it come from so many strange dialects?
Zhao Changhe suddenly stopped.
Cui Yuanyang accidentally bumped into his back, but felt that his back suddenly tightened, as if he had quickly entered a fighting state.
Cui Yuanyang peeked out from under his creaking nest. Footsteps sounded one after another in front of him, and a group of officers and soldiers came over: “Zhao Changhe! How dare a wanted criminal enter the city so arrogantly? Does he completely ignore the government?”
No matter what Tang Wanzhuang’s thoughts are, it is impossible for her to convey them to the local governments. In the eyes of the normal government, this guy is really a wanted criminal. Normally, the lazy government would just turn a blind eye, but you actually came into the city with such arrogance. ……
Zhao Changhe’s head is getting big. He really has no intention of provoking the government. This is a violent organization that can blatantly use strong bows and crossbows to form gangs. He can’t do it alone. When I entered the city at night, I planned to challenge the martial arts school and then leave. Who knew that I met a little idiot and arranged to stay in a hotel and take a shower. After doing it for a long time, I actually forgot about it…
My vigilance is still low, I can forget this.
“Hey!” Cui Yuanyang popped his head out: “Do you know who I am!”
“Okay! Zhao Changhe! We heard that you abducted the girl, and it is true! Don’t panic, little girl, we will save you right now!”
Cui Yuanyang: “?”
Zhao Changhe: “…”
Silly girl, you have never left the house since you were a child. Why on earth do you think everyone knows you? It would be better if we didn’t know each other, otherwise it wouldn’t be so appropriate if someone knew that I was staying in a hotel with the Cui family girl.
“Swish, swish, swish!” There was a sound of wind all around, and local elites from the Demon Suppression Division appeared on the rooftops everywhere.
Seeing that there was no end to the situation, Cui Yuanyang was about to take out her Cui family token to reveal her identity, but she saw Zhao Changhe draw a knife with an expressionless face… and then put it on Cui Yuanyang’s neck.
Cui Yuanyang: “???”
“You all know that I abducted the girl, but you don’t know that I am a hostage?” Zhao Changhe said: “Did you know what she meant when she just asked, “Mei Qiao likes the locust alliance?” It means that she is an official. My children have great status. They are not the ones you can just kill with the gangsters and hostages. Look at her face and temperament. You’d better not ask whose girl this is, otherwise I won’t have time to damage her innocence. My reputation was damaged by you first.”
Elite of the Demon Suppression Department: “…”
Have you finished saying everything the leader should say? You come to be an official, why do you want to be a bandit?
Cui Yuanyang understood, she tilted her head and remained silent like a pitiful hostage, so that no one could see the wonder and gratitude in her eyes.
On the roof on the right, a middle-aged man who looked like the leader of the Demon Suppression Division said sternly: “Zhao Changhe! I thought you were a good man after all, but you did such a shameless thing!”
“Tsk, when did you think I was a hero… Isn’t that what gangsters are like?” Zhao Changhe said loudly: “If you don’t want this little white rabbit’s pink and tender neck to snap in two like this, give it to me. Open! ”
The officers and soldiers on the left and right looked at the leader. The middle-aged man hesitated for a long time in embarrassment. He really couldn’t say that he had killed the hostages in broad daylight in full view of everyone. He finally waved his hand helplessly: “Give way.”
Zhao Changhe pulled Cui Yuanyang out of the city gate slowly. When he arrived outside the city gate, he suddenly flew into the forest beside the road a few feet away, swaying all the way without blinking.
His long laughter lingered in the air: “Not only am I a gangster, but next time I may be coveting Tang Wanzhuang! Let her wash up and wait!”
A group of elites from the Demon Suppression Division chased after him, but could not find any trace of Zhao Changhe in the blink of an eye.
“Traveling through the mountains and forests feels like going home.”
“He was born a bandit.”
“Chasing or not?”
No one answered. In fact, no one wanted to chase him. The most disgusting thing is to have a hostage in hand. What if he chases him? Zhao Changhe is not easy to mess with. The current terrain is not as good as the city. If he is defeated one by one, there will be casualties. What’s the point of selling one’s life for a few taels of silver a month…
Everyone looked at each other in confusion and asked angrily: “Does his last words need to be conveyed to the head of the Tang Dynasty?”
“Fuck your mother, you want me to die but I don’t want to!”
“With so many people watching, someone will always tell Mr. Tang…”
“That’s none of our business.”
“…whose daughter is that little girl? She’s so cute, she’s going to be **** by a pig.”
“I don’t know, there is some truth in what Zhao Changhe said. It’s best not to ask, otherwise the other party’s family might even hate us.”
“What a **** daughter!” Someone came up behind him panting: “Jinxiu Clothing Store reported that they lost a set of rabbit fur clothes last night, isn’t that the one! There is also a mandarin duck bellyband, Yihongyuan Is the girl’s style used by serious people? This woman is actually a female gangster from Zhao Changhe’s group. She looks cute but is coquettish on the inside. It’s understandable! Everyone has been deceived by Zhao Changhe…” /
