Chapter 802: Wang Ji’s subordinates [please ask for monthly votes]
Official road, tea shop.
The style here is slightly different from that in the Northwest Continent.
The wind in the northwest continent is like a burly man, full of rough force. The wind here is hot and sticky with a little moisture, like a foreign woman wearing a mysterious mask and making a vicious move. The sun at noon is particularly vicious.
In this cold tea shop, the tall and strong man in a thick linen rolled his Adam''s apple a few times, and drank a bowl of tea bigger than his face in just a few seconds. After drinking the tea, the heat in his body dissipated a little, and he put down the pottery bowl.
"Shopkeeper, add another bowl."
The shopkeeper of the tea shop was holding his cheek with one hand, half-closing his eyes with a look of depressing expression. He woke up instantly when he heard the sound of thunder. Just as he was about to get angry, he saw the man''s physique and fierce expression, swallowed a mouthful of water in fear and put on tea.
The tall and strong man drank another bowl of pleasure.
He pulled his collar and cursed something in a low voice.
At this time, the temperature in the northwest continent is suitable for hot and cold, but it is already so dry and hot that it is so humid. The exposed skin is covered with a thin layer of sweat, which at first glance seems to have been waxed. If the wind blows the dust, the slight dust in the air will stick to the skin. At this time, rub it with your fingers and you can rub it off a gray-black mud, and it is hard to say that it is sour and odorful.
"Not enough, add another bowl."
I drank seven or eight bowls in a row before I stopped.
The shopkeeper of the tea shop was filled with anger, but when he saw a corner of silver that the man took out from his clothes, he immediately smiled happily. The man was fanning the hat in one hand while asking for news from the shopkeeper of the tea shop. For the sake of money, the shopkeeper said everything.
The tall and strong man asked simply, just asking about the question of what the royal family is now and whether the situation is peaceful.
All ordinary people know these problems.
The tea shopkeeper answered one by one.
but-
"I heard that the accent official is a local, right?"
The tall and strong man: "Well, locals have just left their hometown for many years and have only returned after receiving an urgent report from their family."
The shopkeeper of the tea shop lowered his voice: "I am a spectator, not like an ordinary person, and I dare to tell you the truth - if there is nothing important, I should leave here as soon as possible after finishing my work. In recent years, wars have been recruiting everywhere. If someone like the guest is found, he will definitely be arrested!"
When catching strong men in war, they are basically used as consumables.
The tall and strong man smiled: "Are you not afraid of being arrested?"
The shopkeeper of the tea shop said, "I''m not afraid, I''ll offer you."
Some tricks are still willing to spend money to avoid being levied, and if you don’t have money, you can use food to replace them. The relatives of the tea shop owner have some ideas, but others don’t have such good luck. After fighting here for several years, the soldiers were conquered for several years.
The lower and upper age limits of recruitment are constantly refreshed.
It is now difficult to see young people on the street.
The tall and strong man said, "If the soldiers were arrested, they were arrested. Anyway, they were also doing murderous tasks before. Thank you for your concern."
After saying that, he inquired about some things with the shopkeeper.
When the sun was slightly west, he grabbed his hat and put it on his head, walked out of the tea shop, and stepped into the scorching sun.
His legs were not very frequent, but every step was several feet away, and there was nowhere near him. The shopkeeper stared at the man''s back as he walked away, and was secretly shocked. A person with such ghostly powers must be a brave warrior!
The shopkeeper’s previous worries were unnecessary.
The man didn''t know the shopkeeper''s idea. He drove for another two days after leaving the tea shop. During this period, God even turned his face and fell into a thunderstorm without warning. If it weren''t for blocking the rain with weapons, he would have been soaked into a chicken that would have been in trouble.
I haven''t taken a shower for a few days and I''ve been covered in sour smell.
Finally, I saw a city.
He has no road quotation certificate and his real identity is still a wanted criminal. Naturally, he cannot enter the city with great swagger and sneak in directly with his ability. I found the best house in the city, borrowed the well water of the mansion to take a shower, and stole a piece of clothes.
Judging from the size of the male owner''s clothes, the other party''s physique is much smaller than his, but wealthy families choose to increase the amount of clothes they make, and he can barely put them in. He put on his clothes and touched some silver and was about to leave, but an accident happened.
There was a sound of footsteps coming from the corridor outside the house.
Several maids said in unison: "Madam."
Then I heard a gentle female voice.
"Are there any visits in the house today?"
The maid replied: "I have no greetings to you, my wife."
The footsteps gradually approached, and the man said something troublesome, and immediately turned over and hid the beam. The next moment, the door creaked and was pushed open from the outside. Several graceful figures fell into the house, and several maids entered one after another, burning the incense, cooking the tea, and the maids went to the screen to get clean clothes... It was like this posture to serve the wife in a bath.
The man on the beam was silent for three seconds.
"ah-"
The maid behind the screen exclaimed.
"What''s wrong?" the lady asked softly.
"Husband, madam, it seems that the family has been thieves."
The woman, known as the lady, got up and walked quickly to the screen. The stolen one was a men''s clothing. This maid is responsible for organizing and caring for clothes and jewelry in her wife''s room. She could find anything wherever she put it, her eyes closed.
At this moment, there is a missing set of men''s clothing.
The lady was calm: "Look for it, what is missing."
The maid''s search quickly got an answer.
In addition to that set of clothes, there is also some silver.
These silvers are the silvers that the wife used to reward the servants on a daily basis. Although there was only a small handful, it was difficult to find compared to that small box, but the maid had a habit of stacking the silvers and looking neatly and comfortably.
The silver reward is messy at this moment.
The maid in charge of the guard was so scared that her pretty face turned pale.
Just as he was about to plead guilty, he heard the wife''s voice say gently: "If there are no other stolen items, you don''t have to pay attention. There are many people living in this world. That person may have been forced to be desperate and became a thief. Since no one was injured and there were not many things lost, let''s just let it go."
The maids were so grateful when they heard this.
"Prepare water, it''s getting hotter and hotter this day."
Because the summer comes early here, wealthy families put on thin summer shirts early, and the same is true for this lady.
This woman looks very young, with delicate and white skin, and should not be very old, but her eyes are filled with a romantic and charming that cannot be ignored. This aura is obviously not something that a woman in her 10 or 20 years can have. Her age is not easy to guess.
The lady sat on the side of the table next to the leaking window. While the maid was fetching water and preparing to take a bath, she opened a book and read it carefully. She looked focused and time passed quickly. When I came back to my senses, the maid was ready and added half a bottle of flower dew and fresh petals to the bathtub. The maid wanted to go up to serve her and take off her clothes. The lady smiled and said, "Go down, don''t serve her."
The maids did not ask why, and they retired without asking.
After a while, there was only one wife left in the house.
No, it should be said that it is two people.
She smiled and raised her beautiful eyes, looking at a place in Fang Liang with clear and confident eyes: "The little woman understands the difficulties of a hero''s life and will not be investigated by the officials... This hero is still here, and has defamed the little woman''s reputation. Wouldn''t it be avenge for kindness?"
The man sitting on the beam of the house: "..."
He predicted that these women were ordinary people and could not see through their own traces, so he used tricks to hide his body, preparing to wait for the woman to enter the bathtub before leaving quietly with the maid.
Who knows—
I seem to have made a wrong judgment.
The lady said, "Does the hero refuse to come down?"
The strong man finally responded, but his words and tone were very frivolous: "I have been a gentleman on Liang today, why not be a thief in picking flowers again? What kind of kindness should I repay the grudges? Why should I say the true ''kindness'' on the couch?"
The smile in the lady''s eyes instantly turned into ice. She raised her hand and slapped the crossbar of the screen, and pulled out a long sword with a slight sound, her eyes dark and said, "Are you looking for death?"
The murderous aura of heaven and earth all over the body becomes restless.
Seeing this, the strong man stopped pretending and showed his appearance.
When the lady saw the strong man clearly, her heart sank.
She couldn''t see this person''s true strength, and there was no fluctuation in the air between heaven and earth, but this gentleman on the Liang Dynasty was obviously not an ordinary person. This can only prove that his strength is far better than himself. Today I''m having a tough time...
The lady was frightened, and the strong man also had a calm face.
The two of them faced each other over a distance of more than ten feet.
For a long time—
The strong man moved his eyes down from the woman''s face, and then looked back on his face - the women''s clothes here are all made of strapless, long skirts and long gowns, with the atmosphere open and the strapless position is lower. Whether this is true or something is forged, you can tell at a glance.
So, the lady in front of me is really a woman.
A woman who opens up Dan Mansion and gathers literary thoughts!
The strong man frowned with thick black eyebrows, as if he was wondering whether he was still in the northwest continent or had returned to his hometown in turmoil. If it were my hometown, how could there be female scholars? When he was in a state of consciousness, the woman did not act rashly.
He asked: "Are you a woman?"
The lady said, "So what about women?"
The strong man fell into silence and after a while, he spoke: "My surname is Qi and her name is Cang. I accidentally passed by here and disturbed my master''s house. I have no malice to you, so you can put down the sword in your hand. If I have malice, what can you resist?"
The lady knew that Qi Cang''s words were not fake.
A quarter of an hour later—
The two sat opposite each other to make tea, without any tension.
Qi Cang looked at the woman opposite him carefully and asked, "I listen to your accent, you shouldn''t be a local?"
"Well, I came here to settle here with my brother many years ago to avoid disaster."
Qi Cang asked again: "Northwest?"
The lady nodded: "That''s right."
Qi Cang asked again: "Are you from Heyin County, Longwu County, Sibao County or Minfeng County?"
Compared with the vast Northwest Continent, these four places are very small and not famous. If you don’t know it deliberately, you have basically never heard of it. The lady''s hand pouring tea was paused, looking up at Qi Cang, with confusion and inquiring. Qi Cang understood this reaction as soon as he saw it.
He couldn''t help but grin.
Murmur, "The road to enemies is narrow..."
She didn''t understand the meaning: "The little woman was indeed from Sibao County, but her enemies were narrow... Where did the hero start?"
Qi Cang drank a ox: "literally."
The lady continued to strike indirectly.
"Why can a hero guess the ancestral home of a young woman in one word?"
Qi Cang said, "Because you can practice."
The lady frowned: “…”
She discovered that she was able to practice a few years ago, but at that time she had already passed the age of enlightenment. Her body carried too many acquired worldly turbid things, and she could hardly feel the flow of the qi of heaven and earth, let alone accommodate them in her body.
But she is lucky.
Accidentally got a rare treasure.
It is said that she can eliminate the turbid air accumulated in her body over the years, and she accumulates it bit by bit with this thing. The emperor will never let down the kryptonian. As long as she smashes enough treasures, she will get what she wants and successfully gather her literary heart.
Only she knew the difficulties and efforts.
The man in front of him seemed to have a secret.
She said calmly: "There is no necessary connection between the two."
Qi Cang said, "Yes, the lord I served before was killed by the county magistrate of Longwu County. Interestingly, this person is also a woman. There are many female scholars and martial artists under her tent. Do you think there is any connection between them?"
The lady was shocked at first. She didn''t know that besides herself there were women who could practice, and then she was confused: "...but, the little woman was born in Sibao County rather than Longwu County..."
There is nothing wrong with each other, right?
"The governor of Longwu County took over the Sibao County, which was the same as last year. However, you said you could practice a few years ago, which is somewhat different from what I know..."
Mrs.: “…”
As the sky got darker, Qi Cang had no intention of moving his butt. His wife had to take the initiative to invite him to stay in the mansion for a few days, and said, "The clothes on the mansion''s body are not suitable. If you don''t mind, let the embroiderer in the mansion make a new look for you."
Qi Cang was not out of sight: "It''s okay to make a new one. I will inevitably cause misunderstandings when wearing your man''s clothes."
The lady said, "Not bad."
Because there is no male owner in the house.
Qi Cang discovered this very early.
Although there are several sets of men''s clothing in the master bedroom wardrobe of different periods, there are no signs of wearing them, all of them are new clothes, and there are no signs of male activities except these. Qi Cang just thought she was a widow, and didn''t look at it carefully, and then fell asleep after dipping her head into a pillow.
At night, the lady went out.
Instruct the groom: "Go to the official office."
To be precise, it is the Wang Ji Mansion that has been enfeoffed to this point.
She always felt that the name Qi Cang sounded very familiar.
"Qi Cang...Qi Cang...This man''s surname is Qi?"
Inside the official office, the lights are brightly lit.
She was searching for a bunch of book archives.
An hour passed in a blink of an eye and she got nothing. At this time, a woman teased her from outside the door, and smiled: "I''m so kind of in my heart, aren''t you going back? When have you been so diligent? How could this point be worth it?"
Madam: "…Your Highness, look for someone."
The visitor''s steps were swaying, and the wife didn''t raise her head.
"Who are you looking for? Tell me, I''ll find you."
The lady said, "Qi Cang."
The woman she called His Highness said "hum" and turned her head and asked, "Qi Cang? Why are you asking him for nothing?"
The lady was surprised: "Your Highness knows you?"
His highness covered his mouth and smiled foolishly: "Oh, this man surnamed Qi has been pushing forward for more than ten years. Who doesn''t know the whole country? But, haven''t you said that you suddenly asked him for what he did?"
The lady said, "I have something to do."
His Highness sat sideways on the table, leaning back with his right hand: "I want to find him, I have to ask if the King of Hell is willing to be able to be compatible."
The lady frowned: "What do you mean?"
His Highness said, "A person has been dead for many years. If you dig into the mass grave outside the city, you may be able to dig out his entire family."
Mrs.: “…”
Could it be the same name and surname?
A coincidence?
