Waiting for the wind and rain, the city of clouds is light

Even after drinking the decoction that was so bitter that the root of her tongue was numb for more than ten days, all the injuries on Yun Wei's body were almost healed, but it took a while for her internal strength to fully recover.During this period of time, she is no different from hundreds of ordinary girls in Sanghai City. Even if she has no internal strength, she still has to do the job. Yun Wei is carrying a bucket of water with some depression while thinking. This weight, placed before She could lift the stairs up the stairs without any effort at all, but now she almost dragged the wooden barrel halfway, and she was so tired that she could only stop and take a rest.

With numbness all over his body, Yun Wei simply sat on the steps of the stairs, wiped off the sweat from his head, and looked out of the inn from the half-open window.

In the early morning, Sang Hai was still asleep, the curfew probably had just been lifted, and there were only one or two people on the street occasionally.Yun Wei said silently in her heart, clenched her fists, and a special feeling of power being taken away surged up.The sky outside is gradually brightening, and the temperature of the sun is enveloping the street, but there is still a place in my heart that is pressed.

Now it is difficult for her to carry a bucket of water, let alone use a bow and arrow. She escaped the group of people last time, but she doesn't know when and where the next group of people will appear.If it really happened, I would not be an opponent without the strength to restrain a chicken. Not only would I not be able to fight back, but I would even be too slow to escape.Even if someone helps him, he can only become his burden.

The door of the inn slammed, and Zhang Liang in Tsing Yi appeared beside the door.He turned around and closed the door carefully, looked around and finally landed on Yun Wei who was sitting on the central step of the stairs: "Treasurer Ding hasn't got up yet?"

Yun Wei shook her head, it is still difficult for her to speak now.

Zhang Liang walked up the stairs, glanced at the wooden bucket beside her, and then at Yun Wei who was sitting on the steps with her right hand resting on her chin: "Let me help you lift this bucket of water up."

"No need." Yun Wei waved his hand, speaking in a very soft voice, which could only be heard clearly when the Quiet Inn was standing as close as Zhang Liang.Seeing Zhang Liang moving over with a vaguely worried gaze, Yun Wei hastily withdrew her gaze as if she had been burned, and added: "I just sit."

Zhang Liang looked at her for a while, then sat down beside her.

Still unable to speak properly, Yun Wei gritted her teeth and suppressed the strange feeling in her throat.After waking up, she was thankful that the rest of the people were not so troublesome that Zhang Liang couldn't deal with it, until later she smelled the medicinal scent on his body that was different from her own soup, and she found something wrong and went to Yan Lu.Faced with Mr. Yan Er, who was so strict that he wanted to hit the wall, Yun Wei almost tried his best to ask. In order to take her away from those people, he himself suffered several injuries. hurt.

Usually she hates dragging others down, but now she has to.

"Mr. Zhang Liang, thank you that day." Yun Wei said softly.

"Why did you add Mr.?" The person next to him seemed to have a hint of a smile in his voice.

"Zhang Liang," Yun Wei corrected, pausing for a moment, "I've been bothering you for the past few days."

There was silence at the side, Yun Wei waited with lowered eyes, and Zhang Liang's voice came from a moment later: "You seem to have something on your mind."

"Really?" Yun Wei responded, rubbing her face subconsciously.

Zhang Liang looked out the window, got up and carried the bucket upstairs, and then walked back to Yun Wei who had already stood up: "I still have something to do, let's go first, and when you meet shopkeeper Ding, tell him that I have been here. "

"En." Yun Wei responded, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.The worry on Zhang Liang's brows seemed to have eased a little, he said his farewell before turning around and walking down the stairs.

The sound of footsteps gradually disappeared at the door, Yun Wei retracted her gaze, sat down silently again, and rubbed her face hard after a while.It's useless to patronize and be unhappy, she knows this truth, but... she really can't be happy, and then she can't always keep a dark face to make everyone worry about her.

Wait for a while, Yun Wei thought, just for a while.She stretched out her hand and took out the master's bamboo arrow, which she carried with her now, and turned it around on her finger a few times, but she still couldn't figure out what was in it.

Zhang Liang didn't stop until he walked a long way from the inn and reached a secluded alley.A butterfly-winged bird flapped its wings and flew by, and there was a bamboo slip between its fingers.

"It seems that the sneaky guys in the empire have been offended," Bai Feng's voice sounded in my ear, "their eyeliners are all over the city now. It is inconvenient for Master Wei Zhuang to show up, so I asked me to tell Zifang that the group that was originally active in the southeast mountain area People seem to be becoming more and more restless, and recently they have expanded their area of ​​activity to Songhai City, and that weird carriage is running around on the streets, as if they don't care whether others can see it or not."

Holding the bamboo slip in his hand, Zhang Liang frowned.

"I don't know what they are doing." Bai Feng raised his hand, and the butterfly-winged bird fluttered its wings and flew into the sky, and the sun gradually brightened, "Master Wei Zhuang also said that he was quite satisfied with the information from the famous master last time."

Zhang Liang raised his head and looked towards the roof, but Bai Feng had disappeared.

The bamboo slip in his hand was cold, Zhang Liang kept it in his arms.I'm afraid that group of people lost too much damage that day and searched in the mountains to no avail, so they searched so desperately.And to push the scope of activities to the city, I am afraid that the previous preparations are already roughly ready.

When footsteps sounded behind him, Yan Lu knew who it was without turning his head.Putting down the scroll in his hand, Yan Lu said: "This time, is it also to congratulate Miss?"

The footsteps stopped.

Yan Lu looked sideways at the branches of the trees outside the corridor, waiting for the answer from the people behind him. In the early morning, he seemed to be able to hear birdsong in the distance.Yan Lu took a deep breath: "I agree."

"Brother, don't you ask what Zifang is asking for?" Zhang Liang asked.

"You have your own measure." Yan Lu said unhurriedly, and added after a while, "I won't tell senior brother."

There was another silence, Yan Lu didn't seem to be in a hurry.Zhang Liang opened his mouth, his voice lowered: "Senior Brother, don't you suspect me?"

"I believe in you," Yan Lu's voice could not hear any waves, "You know what you want to do, and you know what you should do."

Zhang Liang was stunned for a while, then loosened his clenched fist.Yes, he thought, both he and Yunwei have their own secrets, his is South Korea that has been destroyed in the past, and hers is Sanghai, which is under the current calm appearance.Until now, he has not told her about the quicksand, but he just doesn't want her, who should have lived an easier life, to be drawn into that bottomless black hole.As for her, Zhang Liang sighed silently. He knew Yun Wei's temperament, and he must have concealed something from himself and everyone, because he didn't want to involve more people in a scene that should have only her and those black clothes. competition of people.

But with her alone, Zhang Liang thanked Yan Lu, turned and left, and his steps seemed to be so heavy like never before.

——How can she do it alone?

"Sister Yunwei take me out for a stroll!"

"Fatty Ding has no time to talk to us, how boring!"

"Sister Yunwei is going to buy roasted pheasants with me! I'm almost suffocated here!"

Yun Wei's mind was in a mess, his hands were being pulled back and forth by Tianming, and his eyes were dazzled, so he could only repeat with a little clarity in his mind: "No, there are too many people searching on the street now. , going out is dangerous."

"Boy, you are really too," Shaoyu sneered at the side, "It's really heartless to go down the mountain and only think about roasted pheasants."

After finally waiting for more people to go up the mountain, Yun Wei let the two of them mix into the crowd, and went back to Xiaoshengxianzhuang with a group of Confucian disciples who were going down the mountain to play.Silently drinking tea, Yun Wei looked at the carriages and crowds outside the inn with his head propped up. He recalled trying to draw a bow in the backyard just now. Although he could still aim accurately, his strength was the same as when he was a beginner. Biased.

The sun was slanting towards the west, showing some orange color, Yun slightly rubbed his eyes, and when he opened it again, he found a figure standing outside the door.

"Zhang Liang?" Yun Wei was a little surprised, "Why come to the inn now?"

"There are more surveillance eyes in the city." Zhang Liang stepped into the inn, and now there are no guests in the inn at Shifen, "It turns out that the group of people who transported things to the southeast mountain area in horse-drawn carts every day seemed to be active in the city. Signs, Yunwei, you can come to Xiaoshengxianzhuang to stay for a while, avoid the limelight, and when you are almost recovered, it will be safer."

Yun Wei slightly opened his eyes: "Leave now?"

"Don't worry, it's not going to Xiaoshengxianzhuang." Zhang Liang seemed to guess what she was thinking, and motioned her to look outside the door.Yun Wei chased after her eyes, and a carriage was parked at the door of the inn.

"This..." Yun Wei couldn't believe it.

"Second senior brother asked me to deliver a few boxes of vanilla to Mr. Xiangguo's residence today. After the matter is completed, I will borrow this carriage." Zhang Liang said, hiding a secret smile at the end of the sentence.Yun Wei suddenly realized that the carriage was going around the Xiangguo Mansion for a while, and the officials didn't dare to step forward to check it rashly. In addition, the things to be delivered had already been delivered, so the empire naturally relaxed its vigilance. How could it be guessed that Zhang Liang was here? At that time, he actually wanted to bring a big living person to Xiaoshengxian Village.Seeing him whispering instructions to the disciple driving the car, Yun Wei thought to himself that only he has such courage.

There are not many things, and they will be tidied up after a while.Yun Wei looked around, the sun was setting, and the number of pedestrians on the street began to decrease. Walking at this time is not easy to attract attention.Standing on the side of the car, Zhang Liang stretched out his hand to pull Yun Wei up, his brows slightly frowned when his eyes touched the cloth-wrapped bow and arrow she held in her hand.The latter noticed that his gaze was turning back, so he smiled at her to cover up, and when she turned her back to him, the worry in her eyes showed.

The wheels turned and made the sound of wooden slats colliding, Yun Wei approached the window, opened the curtain a crack, and saw the pedestrians walking slowly outside, thinking that there seemed to be not many patrolling people at this time.Zhang Liang's voice came from behind: "This is your first time riding in a carriage?"

Yun Wei's hands froze, it really was... But she obviously didn't do it because of curiosity!And what chance does she have as a mistress to ride a carriage... There is no chance to drive a carriage, okay?

Seeing Zhang Liang's suppressed smile, Yun Wei couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth. Just as he didn't know what to do, the smiling voice came again: "The smoke and dust raised by the carriage is heavy. It's better to lower the curtain."

"That's it." Hearing this, Yun Wei had no choice but to put down the curtain obediently, just as a carriage was coming towards them, passing them by outside the window.Hearing the sound of the axle, Yun Wei glanced outside the curtain that had not been completely lowered.

With just this one glance, the expression on Yun Wei's face suddenly froze.

This is... There was a buzzing in my ears, as if the whole world had quieted down, Yun Wei heard the sound of her trembling inhalation resounding in the void.Everything around seems to slow down, and time seems to be stuck and unable to move forward.A strange feeling rose from her fingertips, instantly grabbing all her strength and making her unable to move.

The sound of the heartbeat was beating the eardrums, like a film slowed down frame by frame, Yun Wei watched the carriage move into the gap of the curtain bit by bit, and entered her field of vision bit by bit, the window of the carriage was in the air. Directly across from her, the driving wind raised the gauze curtain, and the sound of wind and sand hitting her ears.Inside that curtain, inside that curtain... Yun Wei's eyes widened, something loomed behind the gauze curtain blown by the strong wind.There was a tremor in the chest, Yun Wei was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that it was the bamboo arrow left by the master!

The gauze curtain was lifted by the strong wind, and just before she moved out of the small gap, a figure kneeling in the middle of the car appeared in front of her eyes.

Master...Mother...Yun Wei moved her lips tremblingly.

The impact of the wheels passing the ground was like thunder, Yun Wei's fingertips trembled stiffly, watching the wheels turn around in front of her eyes, one frame at a time, turning faster and faster, like an off-string Like an arrow——

Yun Wei got up suddenly, the speed was so fast that even she was surprised, stretched out her hand to lift the curtain in front of the car, stepped on the crossbar behind the driver, grabbed the rein and pulled it violently when the driver realized it but had no time to turn around!

The horse neighed for a while, and the disciple driving the car was shaken and almost fell off the car. Zhang Liang got up, opened the curtain in front of the car, and was about to stabilize the horse and pull Yun Wei back, but Yun Wei was facing towards him under the sudden instability. Leaping to the side, it almost fell to the ground in a falling posture.

Like a heavy blow to the heart, Zhang Liang's eyes widened, the cold wind of winter evening blowing towards his face, Zhang Liang lifted the curtain and stabilized the carriage with one hand, Yun Wei, who had fallen to the ground, turned over and crawled Get up, and catch up in the direction the carriage was driving just now!
