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

Yun Wei watched Zhang Liang order a table of dishes with ease, and sat stiffly on the edge of the table by the window, feeling uncomfortable.Zhang Liang caressed the teacup with his fingers, seeing that Yun Wei was still staring out of the window, took a sip of tea, and didn't speak.The two remained silent like this until Yun Wei spoke first:

"The shift has changed again." It was the guards in the city who spoke.

Zhang Liang nodded, just at this time the food was served.A burst of aroma came, and Yun Wei's gaze was instantly fixed on the dish of sweet and sour fish, but Zhang Liang didn't see Zhang Liang moving his chopsticks for a long time, so he couldn't help but take a small bite and put it into his mouth.As soon as I entered it, there was a bit of sourness, and then a burst of fresh fragrance and sweetness exploded in the mouth.Yun Wei chewed for a long time, swallowed it reluctantly, lowered the hand holding the chopsticks tremblingly from mid-air, and said in a trembling voice, "How much money does this dish cost?"

"One or two." Zhang Liang drank his tea and replied without raising his head.

With a sound, the chopsticks in Yun Wei's hand were transferred to the table: "You, you, are you going to sell me to pay for this meal?" All her savings may not be able to buy this fish.

Zhang Liang was finally willing to look up at her, his eyes full of teasing: "So what?"

Yun Wei slumped on the table all of a sudden: "Can I skip this meal..."

"What?" Zhang Liang asked with a smile, his eyes squinted and bent into the shape of a crescent moon, "I think shopkeeper Ding is the best cook in Sanghai, Yunwei is probably used to eating dishes made by shopkeeper Ding. Have an opinion on the craftsmanship?"

"Zhang Liang, are you asking the question knowingly?" Yun Wei raised her head with resentment on her face, "How can I compare the food of my little one with that of your little Shengxian Village?"

"So?" With a absent-minded uptick in the ending, Zhang Liang picked up a fish with his chopsticks.

"So I," Yun Wei gritted his teeth, and didn't say what he thought of the mountain people who came to this Sanghai City from the mountains and have never seen delicious food, and now they are conquered by a fish, "There is nothing so."

"Really?" Zhang Liang said meaningfully to himself, and stopped asking.

Seeing Zhang Liang's slender fingers fiddling with chopsticks, Yun Wei suddenly thought of something: "Zhang Liang, do you come here often?"

"Yes." Zhang Liang responded without stopping what he was doing.

Yun Wei's heart trembled, as if many questions came out of her mouth, and she swallowed them alive again.Yun Wei remained silent, observing the diners around, they were either wearing robes with fox fur, or wearing a crown with intricate patterns on the cuffs, and the hairpins on women's heads were of various designs and colors, Yun Wei couldn't tell clearly.Zhang Liang's voice rang in her ears: "Yun Wei wants to ask, why does Liang come here so often?" When she turned her head back, she leaned slightly and lowered her voice, "The official place."

Yun Wei's eyes flickered.

Zhang Liang didn't answer immediately, but poured a cup of tea for her and himself.Yun Wei picked up the cup, and the dense white steam smoked her eyelashes, and Zhang Liang said in a low voice: "I am the third head of Xiaoshengxianzhuang, so they dare not stop me. These high-ranking people sometimes behave," sneered "But it's very crude."

Yun Wei brushed his head up to look at him, only felt that Zhang Liang's expression was a little ironic behind the water mist, but his tone had returned to normal: "But that's fine, if it wasn't like this, there wouldn't be a trace of irony in this place where fish and dragons are mixed together. Don't shy away from talking about military affairs."

"But if you come here often," Yun Wei frowned, "won't it make them suspicious?"

Zhang Liang silently took a sip of tea, put the teacup lightly on the table, his face was a bit dignified.

"Not at the beginning, but recently..." Zhang Liang stopped talking, Yun Wei observed his expression and understood what he meant.

Recently, the empire's treatment of Confucianism is not as it used to be, and they don't even bother to pretend to respect Confucianism.

"Then you bring me here," Yun Wei suddenly felt like a mang on his back, "wouldn't they be suspicious of who I am?"

Zhang Liang raised his eyes leisurely when he heard the words, Yun Wei's nervous but forced calm expression met his eyes, and then he suddenly realized after seeing his funny eyes: "That's why you..." Seeing that there are many people around, he quickly lowered his voice ,"so."

That's why he did those misleading things in broad daylight and took her around.In this way, others will only pay attention to who the extra woman next to the third head is, and don't pay attention to why he brought an unknown person to and fro in various realms that ordinary people cannot enter.

Yun Wei's heart settled down, and she glanced at the person opposite gratefully. He must have known that she had no bottom in her heart, so he brought her out to inquire about the news.He picked up the teacup and took a sip, but he didn't see Zhang Liang's complicated eyes when he looked at her behind the teacup.

But within two or three hours, Yun Wei had already been dragged away by Zhang Liang to almost five teahouses.She finally found out that scouting for news is a time-consuming job that requires skill and may not be thankful.But along the way, she also knew a lot about the incident in the evening. For example, the sacrifice started at Shenshi; From the officials down to the common people are discussing - a certain "big man" is coming.

Thinking of this, Yun Wei couldn't help sneering, this is the second meeting, this elder from the same sect, I don't know how to call him.The street was bustling with people, but Yun Wei could vaguely see that the street was empty after one or two hours.She knew that such a big move must be to catch her.

"Sacrifice?"

Yun Wei was startled, and recognized that it was the voice from the table next to him.Now she is sitting in the sixth teahouse, raising her eyes without leaving a trace, Zhang Liang is raising his teacup to sip tea, as if he didn't notice what she just heard.Yun Wei's mind was moved, and she listened carefully, but the people at the table had lowered their voices, only hearing a few fragmentary words of "witchcraft" and "blessing".

Yun Wei pondered over these words, and the bad premonition grew stronger in her heart.Her intuition told her that the so-called sacrificial offering was most likely to be the teacher's wife, but she was openly placed on the altar like this, ostentatiously waiting for someone to come and snatch her, like an... invitation.

An exquisitely arranged bureau, a banquet of swords and swords, and a bottomless trap.

Yun Wei's eyelids twitched, and she raised her eyes to look at Zhang Liang again. The latter noticed her eyes and smiled slightly at her: "Why?"

Yun Wei shook his head, took a sip from his teacup, and looked out the window.

And this trap, she had to jump into it.

Even if she knew that she would go in this way and estimate that it would be bad or bad, her internal strength had not yet fully recovered, her archery skills could not be replenished, and she lacked the voice skills of her subordinates who could fight against that person, the entire Songhai City was blocked, and the whole city was full of his men. Just wait for her to go.The reason why the man so ostentatiously pulled his wife into the sun was because he must be sure that this was an invitation she could not refuse, because this was her only chance to see her, no matter what her current situation was.If she gave up this time, it might be difficult for her to get close to the truth about the murder of Master and Teacher's wife in the future.He was so sure that she would throw herself into the net, he must have been prepared, but she was in the open, that man was in the dark, she couldn't guess his motives, let alone what method he wanted to use.

But so what, and how could it be.

This can only be faced by her alone, and it should only be faced by her alone.

"Let's go," a sentence from the opposite side brought her back to reality, Zhang Liang stood up abruptly, "Let's go to the street again."

Yun Wei responded and stood up, for a moment she felt that the sunlight outside the window was cold, but it was only for that moment.

Zhang Liang stepped out of the gate first, and the cloud stopped slightly inside the shadowed gate, the winter sun outside was still as bright and warm as usual, covering Zhang Liang's body, the green clothes seemed to melt into the sunlight, so light no quality.His long hair fluttered with the breeze, and the hairband on his head was glowing softly. The unmelted snow around him made it seem like he didn't step on the ground, but floated down from the sky lightly.People and horses were passing through the street outside, and he was the only one standing there. For a moment, he seemed to realize that she hadn't followed, turned around and held out his hand to her:

"What are you doing standing there, come out."

Yun Wei suppressed the soreness in his eyes, smiled and held his hand: "Okay."

Zhang Liang increased his strength and pulled her out of the tea house. When she stood still, he let go of her hand and walked forward.

Feeling the heat in her hand gradually disappearing, and the trace of his breath getting farther and farther away from her, Yun Wei looked at the back of the long-haired Tsing Yi, feeling that the warmth that made her rely on her greed followed that back little by little. It faded away from the body, subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab it, but forced himself to take it back.The tide in his eyes was churning, unable to suppress it any longer, Yun Wei clenched his fists tightly, and the nails dug into the flesh so painfully.She heard her own heartbeat, but felt a pain in her chest, as if something had been pulled out from there.

She finally heard clearly the retention in her heart, but it was too late, he didn't know, and he wouldn't know.He wouldn't know that the little girl he rescued at random, he once suspected that the person who had tested her tit for tat, the person who asked him to return her favor, would want to become a real girl and want him to look into her eyes Being able to give birth to such a little bit of surprise, would keep him in the bottom of my heart but realize it to the extreme, and would be so painful after uprooting his shadow from my heart.

It's... too late.

Tears still fell.

After all, it is.

――I can’t keep holding his hand.

The sea was still calm just now, but suddenly the waves were rough, and the big waves rolled and swallowed, and after hitting the reefs on the shore, they exploded into countless drops of water.The huge boat heaved with the waves, making a low, muffled sound.

Xun Wang just stared at the huge waves on the sea surface, for some reason, his mood is very calm now.

"High Priest, everything is ready. The curfew of Songhai City has been issued, and it will be emptied in the near future." A person next to him knelt on the ground and lowered his head.He waved his hand lazily, and the man stepped aside knowingly.

The sound of the chains colliding sounded, and a figure in a black dress was brought to the altar. His long hair was tied in a knot in front of him, stained with blood.The figure seemed to still want to resist, and when the person who was holding her didn't pay attention, she pushed her violently, Xun Wang raised her hand, and opened and closed her lips soundlessly, the figure fell to the ground as if it had been hit hard, with its nails on the wooden platform. Caught a few marks.

"By the way," Xun Wang looked at the woman on the ground who was too painful to move, and smiled with satisfaction.

"This is my obedient sister."
