A steady drizzle.
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 side completely. 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 Zhao Changhe's alienation and even contempt for the aristocratic family, the feeling that everyone was not from the same place... Although he didn't say it directly, he could still feel it vaguely.
Cui Yuanyang's elbows hadn't turned out yet. Of course she was standing at her own home, and suddenly she felt far away from Zhao Changhe.
So die in the light.
And how should I put it... I don’t know if I am being mean... It turns out that Zhao Changhe was rough, wild and heroic, which was really fatal to a girl who grew up in a gentle environment and was just at a rebellious age. 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... this is really Is it a shame?
Scratching your head.
I scratched the rabbit's ears.
Cui Yuanyang was 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 died.
Cui Yuanyang suddenly thought that the things he made him feel far away seemed to be the things he attracted to 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? What can you do with your elder brother? Along the way, the big families in the government and yamen welcomed and sent him to be considerate and considerate. When he arrived in Beimang, he never had a fight. With him, he was on the line of life and death when he stepped out of the martial arts. How does the storm compare?
Now Cui Yuanyang even looked at the beggar on the roadside with suspicion, always wondering if it was another killer.
"Hey..." Cui Yuanyang couldn't help but quietly pulled 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.
"Please speak……"
"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 hasn't she come over yet?"
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 there are some things It requires accumulation of experience, and some things can be solved by logical analysis... I am also afraid that I will encounter some things that are completely illogical, which will really hurt my brain, such as your appearance."
Cui Yuanyang: "..."
What is the word logic? Where is Zhaocuo? Where do all these strange dialects come from?
Zhao Changhe suddenly stopped.
Cui Yuanyang accidentally bumped into his back, but felt that his back suddenly tightened, as if he 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 were, it was impossible for her to convey them to the local government. In the eyes of the normal government, this guy was really a wanted criminal. Normally, the lazy government would just turn a blind eye, but he actually came into the city with such arrogance...
Zhao Changhe's head was pounding. He really had no intention of provoking the government. This was a violent organization that could blatantly use force and crossbows to form gangs. He couldn'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 to take a shower. After doing it for a long time, I actually forgot about it...
Or if your vigilance is low, you can forget this.
"Hey!" Cui Yuanyang popped his head out: "Do you know who I am!"
"Okay! Zhao Changhe! We heard that you abducted a girl, and it was 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 appropriate if someone knew that I was staying in a hotel with the Cui family girl.
"Swish, swish, swish!" The wind roared all around, and local elites from the Demon Suppression Department appeared on the roofs 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: "Do you know what she meant when she asked you if you recognized her just now? It means that she is the daughter of an official and has great status. This is not someone you can casually kill with the gangsters and hostages. Look at this face, this temperament, how proud? You'd better not ask whose lady this is, otherwise I will be damaged by you before I can damage her reputation. ”
Elite from 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, please get out of my way!"
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 together in broad daylight in full view of everyone. He finally waved his hand helplessly: "Give way."
Zhao Changhe pulled Cui Yuanyang slowly out of the city gate. When he arrived outside the city gate, he suddenly flew into the forest beside the road a few feet away, ducking and jumping all the way without blinking.
His long laughter lingered in the air: "Not only am I a gangster, but the person I covet next time may be Tang Wanzhuang! Let her wash up and wait!"
A group of elites from the Demon Suppression Department 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's from a bandit background."
"Should we chase 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 chased 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 and asked anguishedly: "Does his last words need to be conveyed to the Tang Dynasty?"
"Fuck your mother, you want me to die and I don't want to!"
"With so many people watching, someone must pass it on to Mr. Tang..."
"That's none of our business."
"...Whose daughter is that little girl? She's so cute, she's going to be fucked by a pig."
"I don't know, Zhao Changhe still has a reason for what he said. It's best not to ask, otherwise the other party's family might even hate us."
"What a piece of bullshit!" 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, used by the girl from Yihongyuan. Is that money used by serious people? This woman is basically a female gangster from Zhao Changhe’s group, and she also plays the trick of being cute on the outside but coquettish on the inside. It’s understandable! Everyone has been deceived by Zhao Changhe..."
