[Sword Three] In the days when I was forced to become Wanhua

The next day, Su Qian got up early, and stayed here for half a month, depending on the situation, at least the first half of the month, all kinds of supplies should be replenished, and he was so idle at home that he was almost moldy, so he planned to Enter Chang'an City to catch a morning market.He changed into a green cloth clothes and carried a medicine basket on his back. Just as he was about to step out of the house, Tang Wuyuan stood beside him, hugging his waist, pressing his face into his arms, sobbing and refusing to let him go.

Su Qian patted his head and said angrily, "Let's go together."

After finishing speaking, he took Tang Wuyuan's hand and walked out together.Tang Wuyuan seemed to feel something, his spirit immediately recovered, and he obediently followed Su Qian, his eyebrows lowered and his eyes pleasing to the eye as before.

The road from the bamboo forest to Chang'an City is not long, Su Qian thought about it, and decided to go to the inner city of Chang'an, there are some expensive things that may not be available in Chang'an City.In the beginning, Su Qian held Tang Wuyuan's hand, but he was not used to it, so Tang Wuyuan unknowingly changed to pulling his sleeve, not pulling too much, just pinching a little bit with two slender fingers Son sleeves, pitiful.

Su Qian took his hand and put it in his hand to play with. He thought that Tang Wuyuan, a member of the Tang family, must have many achievements in his hands, but after a closer look, Tang Wuyuan's hands were extremely perfect, with no scars or calluses. The fingers are neither thick nor thin, and the joints are slender, which is very suitable for holding a sword or playing with hidden weapons.As he was walking, he suddenly felt so bored that he had nothing to play with, so he aimed at Tang Wuyuan's machine crossbow.

He touched Tang Wuyuan's waist, Tang Wuyuan is now wearing Su Qian's clothes all over his body, naturally there are not so many places for him to hide hidden weapons and mechanism crossbows, hidden weapons can be left out, but mechanism crossbows are still given. He is ready.Su Qian took out his mechanism crossbow from the buckle at his waist.Tang Wuyuan's mechanism crossbow is made of fine iron, but it does not press down on the hand, it is as light as a bird, and the retracted state is no more than half an arm's length. Once the mechanism spring is pressed, the mechanism crossbow can be ejected to an arm's length, and it will be automatically placed in the On the string, the jet-black gun is extremely sharp, even a three-year-old child can easily shoot a bear if he seizes the opportunity.

Su Qian flipped through it, and then opened the machine spring, and saw a small crossbow unfolded immediately, and the sound of the machine spring was endless, but in just one breath, a complete machine crossbow fell on Su Qian's arm.Su Qian took a look, then raised her hand and pointed the crossbow at Tang Wuyuan, with the cold front sight stuck to his forehead, jokingly making a gesture to shoot.

Tang Wuyuan didn't know how to hide, his eyes stared blankly at that point of sharpness, as if he was infatuated.When Su Qian raised his hand as if to pull the trigger, he seemed to know something, his eyelashes trembled, and then he slowly closed his eyes, even raised his head, and pressed himself tightly against the At the muzzle.

Su Qian chuckled, moved the crossbow away, stowed it with a mechanical spring, and put it back on Tang Wuyuan's waist.Su Qian reached out her hand and touched Tang Wuyuan's forehead, squinted her eyes to look at the skin that was reddened by the muzzle of the gun, and said, "When you see someone want to take your crossbow, remember not to let them take it...someone wants to take your crossbow... Hold the top of your head, remember to hide."

Tang Wuyuan still didn't answer, his Adam's apple slipped, and he looked at him blankly.

Su Qian sighed, reached out and patted Tang Wuyuan's face twice, then took his hand and continued to lead him towards the city.He regretted that he didn't ride a horse. The way he walked was still a bit long. Not long after he left the green bamboo forest, he came across a small inn. A few servants came out of it, shouting and shouting, a man dressed as a junior It was with great difficulty that the men who handed the burdens and dry food finally coaxed the old men away. Only then did they notice Su Qian and the two of them, and hurried up and asked, "Guests, should we eat or ask for directions?"

Su Qian explained the needs to others in a few words, Xiaoer patted his head and replied: "This guest officer, is this your first visit to Chang'an? We ordinary people are not allowed to enter Chang'an City by horse-drawn carriage. It can only be sent to Chang'an City for you, and you have to go into the inner city by yourself. If you are riding a horse, you can't rush - if the messenger sees it, it will be terrible, and you will be punished! "

"So that's the case." Su Qian thought for a while, and said, "Can the carriage go now?"

"Of course, of course, wait a moment, my little one, I'll call you a car."

Not long after, Su Qian and Tang Wuyuan got into the carriage to Chang'an City. The driver was a simple and honest old man. The carriage was a bit worn out but looked solid. There were still a lot of hay and boxes of goods piled up on the carriage. The old man saw Su Qian and the two of them. When you come out, tell them to get on the car quickly, so as not to delay the delivery time.

"Can you come up?" Su Qian asked, but after jumping into the carriage, he turned around and held Tang Wuyuan's hand, and with a clever effort, Tang Wuyuan got into the carriage smoothly. The old man stared at him dumbfounded. He raised his thumb and praised again and again: "Your hand... is so tall! I can't tell you still have this hand!"

Su Qian smiled reservedly and elegantly, and explained: "Small family, how can they not have strength in their hands."

"That's right." The old man raised his horsewhip and shouted, "Sit down!" Before he finished speaking, the carriage rushed out with a swish.

Rao Su Qian possesses martial arts, he didn't sit still for a while, swayed and almost flew out, Tang Wuyuan didn't know how to reach out to button Su Qian's sleeve, Su Qian grabbed his hand to stabilize stature.He shouted with a bitter smile: "Old man, isn't our car too fast!"

"You don't think it's slow? How about going faster?" The old man smiled smartly, raised his whip again, and the speed of the carriage immediately shifted to another gear. At this time, the disadvantages of the carriage became apparent—the official way at this time was nothing more than It was just a slightly flat yellow land, not to mention that the carriage was flying with dust, and the wooden wheels did not have any shock-absorbing measures. From time to time, a stone was pressed against it, and Su Qian felt that she could fly.

It was half an hour's journey, but the old man finished the journey in a quarter of an hour while driving the car.The moment Su Qian got out of the car, he felt the ground shaking. The old man also got out of the car, took the reins and brushed the hair on the horse's neck. He patted the horse's neck and said, "Aren't you in a hurry to enter the city? The chivalry is extraordinary, so the old man can hurry up."

Su Qian closed her eyes and reached out to press her temples, feeling a little dizzy.After living in Datang for so many years, I only found out today that he was actually motion sickness.He said shortly, "Thank you, old man."

The old man lit a bag of dry cigarettes, took a puff, smiled slightly, and left with deep merit and fame.

Tang Wuyuan was holding Su Qian's sleeve at the side. Su Qian was a little dizzy, and she leaned against Tang Wuyuan not very politely. She felt a little better when the dizziness passed, and she couldn't help muttering: "This old man was given to you back then. Did his father give you tofu brains... As expected of Chang'an, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon..."

Tang Wuyuan stood on one side with a blank expression. Su Qian dragged him to the gate of Chang'an inner city to line up to enter the city. Thanks to this old man, it was still early in the day and there were not many people at the gate of the inner city. It was Su Qian's turn to go in.Su Qian patted her head and thought for a while, then whispered to herself: "The west city of Chang'an is a place to sell things, and the east city is a place for wealthy households. First go to the west city to buy things, and then go to the east city to shop for some strange things..."

Just as she was thinking about it, there was a sound of horseshoes on the road behind Su Qian. Su Qian felt a pull, and she was pushed to the side of the road by the crowd. Then, someone shouted: "Get out of the way, get out of the way—"

Su Qian looked up, and saw about ten people came on horseback, wearing bright red official robes, black gauze hats on their heads, and maroon horses under their crotches, they looked very imposing.When they were waiting for them to pass by, a horse suddenly stopped in front of Su Qian. The man above took the rein and drank two or three times before the horse stopped. The man looked at Su Qian sideways, cupped his hands and said: "I haven't seen you for a month, sir, and left without saying goodbye. It turns out that I came to Chang'an."

Su Qian looked at the person, nodded and said hello: "So it's the poor man. I haven't seen you for a few days. It seems that I'm happy. Let me congratulate you first."

That person is the smiling tiger guard from Yangzhou!

It's just been a month since I've seen him, but now the smiling tiger has changed into a different outfit. With his rather handsome face, he looks majestic and majestic, and he has the qualifications to be stepped on by matchmakers from all over the world.

Smiling tiger touched his chin, and said with some embarrassment: "No way, it's just that the official has been reinstated. It's Mr., who has a leisurely life, and I'm very envious."

"Where is your father?"

"Still in Yangzhou..." Smiling Tiger muttered: "Chang'an is deep in water, that old man has a bad brain, poor martial arts, and always worrying about others, why are you here?"

"So that's how it is." Su Qian raised her chin and signaled, "Master, the people in front are waiting for you."

"Okay, sir, let's talk later—oh yes, don't leave the inner city for a while, I have business to ask you for a question or two." Smiling Tiger finished speaking, and without waiting for Su Qian's answer, he galloped to catch up with the troops .

Su Qian frowned, business?What can make him get in touch with the official?

At this time Tang Wuyuan tugged at his sleeve, Su Qian looked up, only to see that Tang Wuyuan was no longer staring at him, his eyes had already turned to the siu mai vendor, and told him with a very straightforward expression that he was hungry. up.

"Okay, okay, I can't do anything with you..." Su Qian was pulled so badly by him, she stretched out her hand to hold his hand and told her patiently: "Follow me well, don't run around, you know... There are traffickers in the city, who are specially watching you..." The strong man.

Speaking of the last two words, Su Qian realized something was wrong.

If traffickers want to abduct, they will also abduct older girls and daughters-in-law, and if they are more advanced, they will abduct children carved with powder and jade. Tang Wuyuan, a strong man with a height of seven feet, is probably not wanted by anyone... Could he be abducted to carry sandbags at the pier? ?

"Then I don't worry, no one likes you. Let's go, follow the master to taste the best breakfast in Chang'an City, I heard that it can make people linger..." Su Qian frivolously dialed the other hand Tang Wuyuan's chin nodded secretly in his heart. Fortunately, Tang Wuyuan is a strong man, and ordinary people can easily abduct him, and he can't abduct him easily. If Tang Wuyuan is a little girl, according to the bloodlines of the Tangjiabao people he has seen so far, all the women are not bad. It was the glamorous and charming one. At that time, according to Su Qian's temperament, he took people to the street, and it was a question of whether he could take them back safely...

Anyway, for the first time, Su Qian felt lucky that Tang Wuyuan was a man.
