The day passes quickly.
After eating a full meal of rice with dried radishes, Wei Changtian went out again and wandered around Guanghan City purposefully all day.
Although the imperial army has marched into the city, most of the soldiers are still stationed near the city wall.
Of course there were a lot of soldiers coming and going on the streets, but it was not difficult to avoid them.
After hiding in hiding for one day, Wei Changtian did the following things.
one.
I went near the toilet last night, but because it was too close to the city wall and surrounded by the camps of the imperial army, I didn't risk entering to search.
But in this case, the thing he dropped must have been discovered.
two.
After a general investigation of the deployment of the imperial army, it was discovered that Han Zhao did not immediately send troops to pursue the Shu army as originally planned.
Wei Changtian didn't know the reason, but it probably had something to do with Qin Zhengqiu's sword attack last night.
The enemy suddenly had such a master. Ning Yongnian must have learned about it. Perhaps he ordered the army not to advance rashly.
three.
I went around Han Zhao's main account and basically figured out Han Zhao's location.
Although he is already a third-level person, it is undoubtedly very difficult to see Han Zhao without being noticed.
Stealth is definitely unreliable. After all, the commander of the first army is always surrounded by his own bodyguards.
So it's best to find a way to send a message to Han Zhao and ask him to come see him.
Four.
Try flying.
At the third level, you can fly in the air in a short time, but the internal energy consumption is a bit high.
Wei Changtian has been longing for "flying" for a long time, but he didn't have time to experience it yesterday, so he took a break from his busy schedule and found a place to "test fly" today.
Flying is actually flying...if flying even one foot above the ground is considered flying.
Although he was a little disappointed, Wei Changtian knew that this was because he was injured.
But just "flying" for a dozen breaths exhausted all the internal energy he had finally recovered... Wei Changtian finally understood why it was rare to see Liang Zhen and others "flying".
The feeling of "flying in the air" has no use other than showing off!
Um.
The above is everything Wei Changtian did today.
Oh, one more thing.
At dusk, he randomly found a wealthy family and secretly "took" more than ten taels of silver from them.
As a time traveler who holds the system, a third-level master, the only son of the Wei family, the leader of the Tianluo Sect, the boss behind the Freemasonry and the Tongzhou Association, the master of the Empress of Shu, the future prince-in-law of Dafeng, and the major shareholder of Yingsheng My husband, Wei Changtian is the only one who has done this kind of thing for a mere dozen taels of silver.
People all say "Don't do evil things because they are small, and don't do good things because they are small things."
And what he is doing now can be said to be exactly the opposite. It is not too much to say "Don't do good deeds because they are small, and don't do evil because they are small."
It can be as big as murder and rebellion, or as small as stealing.
He can do all kinds of evil, big and small, without any psychological burden.
If it were Xiao Feng, even if he "borrowed" money from others out of helplessness now, he would definitely find an opportunity to "pay it back" in the future.
But Wei Changtian had no such plan at all.
Big dog owner! Money is earned by exploiting the people's wealth and their anointing! It would be a good thing if he didn’t empty out the whole house for him!
Um?
No, if you put it that way... the Wei family is now the largest wealthy family in Daning.
Then isn't he calling himself a dog?
hiss......
...
The depression is twilight, the sunset is yellow and the clouds are autumn.
At the end of Youshi, when the sunset on the horizon had only the last touch of color left, Wei Changtian, who had "returned with a full load", also returned to the alley where the old woman lived.
There is a chicken in the left hand, a duck in the right hand, and a fat... no, a bag of rice on the back.
Because the imperial army had entered the city, ordinary people basically stayed at home and closed their doors. The whole alley was very deserted at this time.
There was only one small courtyard door open, and a white-haired old woman stood at the door, facing the alley as if waiting for something.
"Mother-in-law!"
Wei Changtian saw her from a distance, and for some reason, he subconsciously shouted.
After hearing his call, the latter just nodded expressionlessly, then turned around and walked slowly back to the yard.
Um?
Not waiting for me?
Gu Gu
Wei Changtian was a little confused for a moment, but he didn't think much and took two quick steps into the courtyard.
At this time, the old woman was walking to the kitchen. Although Wei Changtian knew that he would not get a response, he still raised the chicken and duck and asked with a smile behind him:
"Mother-in-law, I bought chicken and duck. Which one do you want to eat tonight?"
"..."
The old woman turned around slowly, hesitated for a moment, and then pointed at Wei Changtian.
Damn it? ?
Want to eat me? ? ?
Are you originally a monster? ? ?
Wei Changtian was instantly shocked, but the next moment he vaguely understood what the old woman meant.
"You're asking...which one do I want to eat?"
"..."
Nodding, the old woman took a step closer and patted the rice bag behind Wei Changtian.
But this time, Wei Changtian didn't misunderstand her anymore and immediately understood what she meant.
"Hahaha, it's okay, I'm not tired."
"Then let's eat the chicken tonight and the duck tomorrow."
"You can rest, I'll do it..."
"..."
...
Almost half an hour later, the oil lamp was lit in the small room, and there were plates and bowls on the table.
A plate of green vegetables, a plate of pickles, and two bowls of rice were all prepared by the old woman before Wei Changtian came back.
However, Wei Changtian did offer the first dish he cooked by himself after traveling through time - stewed chicken.
In fact, he originally wanted to do something different. After all, he had been studying and working in other places in his previous life, and he could barely cook a few dishes.
Unfortunately, the old woman didn't have much ingredients at home, so she had to stew chicken soup in the end.
"Mother-in-law, try it!"
After serving a bowl of hot soup to the old woman, Wei Changtian talked casually while eating.
He didn't get a response anyway, so he basically just said whatever came to mind.
"Mother-in-law, how old are you? I feel like you must be over eighty years old if you don't tell me much."
"..."
"Where are your children? Why don't you live with them?"
"..."
"There is a war in Shuzhou now. I will buy you some more salt and rice tomorrow. It will be better for you to go out less in the future."
"..."
"Oh, by the way, my surname is Wei. I'm really not a bad person."
"..."
Talking and eating.
Wei Changtian did not observe the old woman specifically, but he could still feel that every time he mentioned the topic of "children", there would be a pause in the latter's movements.
In this era, filial piety is particularly emphasized, so it is rare for children to be unfilial.
But there are many situations where white-haired people send black-haired people.
It seems that this old woman should be the latter.
After guessing this, Wei Changtian also deliberately stopped talking about this matter, and just chatted about home affairs.
But the old woman still listened without saying a word and ate her meal in small bites.
People naturally lose appetite as they get older, so she only ate a few green vegetables and a few mouthfuls of rice throughout the meal.
However, she drank all the chicken soup Wei Changtian served her. She didn't know whether it was because of Wei Changtian's superb cooking skills or for some other reason.
After eating, Wei Changtian took the initiative to wash the dishes and chopsticks, and then prepared to go out to find a way to send a message to Han Zhao.
The old woman didn't react at all. She just continued to sit on the wooden bench, mending the clothes with the last light of the oil lamp.
"Squeak~"
The courtyard door was gently pushed open and closed, and the sound of slight footsteps quickly disappeared into the night.
It was only then that the old woman slowly stopped moving and sat quietly for a long time.
The oil lamp has been extinguished and the moonlight is deserted.
She didn't light any more lights, and just stared at the small courtyard door with half-closed eyes.
The rickety figure is old and lonely, just like the old locust tree that always stays outside the door of my hometown in my memory.
