"Go away, go away! Losing chess is amazing!"
Getting off Xie Wei's carriage, Jiang Xuening became increasingly angry as she thought about it. She gritted her teeth and muttered softly, angrily kicking her foot onto the carriage shaft. She then turned around and stomped her foot towards her carriage.
Jianshu dared not speak while driving the carriage.
Dao Qin also buried her head low when she saw her.
Jiang Xuening lifted the car curtain and sat down in the car, feeling a restless mood: how could she think Xie Wei had a good temper when she was in the capital in the past? From the time we met in Jinling to now on the road, it can be described as unpredictable! Even though she was still smiling in front of her, looking at her good mood, she almost forgot about this person's true identity, what they had done, and what they would do. As a result, with just one sentence, she turned her back and became ruthless!
Isn't it just playing chess?
No one will play with me all the way and I won't die. When the border situation is over, how far does my aunt go!
Jiang Xuening was muttering something in her mouth, so she fell down and wanted to sleep under her head. However, after thinking about it, Xie Wei's face, which was still in need of a beating, was still shaking in her head. Not only did she not feel sleepy, but she became more and more energetic.
She can be considered as holding a grudge and thanking Wei.
On the following journey, there was no need for Xie Wei to shake her face. She first shook her face to Xie Wei's feet, and if she could not speak, she would not speak. If she insisted on speaking, there were also swords, qin, and sword books that were passed down in the middle, completely showing a posture of old age and death not interacting with each other.
On September 1st, they entered the border of Tai'an, Shandong.
After discussion, everyone decided to settle in the city and make some adjustments.
When the carriage passed through the city gate, it needed to stop for inspection. Jiang Xuening heard the sound of begging outside the carriage.
She lifted the car curtain to take a look.
Under the city wall, a group of ordinary people, male and female, gathered around a monk carrying a suitcase, questioning incessantly. The monk's robe had already been torn apart during the shoving, constantly explaining and pleading. However, the more he spoke, the more he seemed to provoke anger from those around him. Finally, the famous woman who was pulling the child spat on his face, and then a tall man next to him punched the monk in the face.
The situation immediately became uncontrollable.
The gathered people seemed to have both fear and anger on their faces. After one person intervened, they immediately followed suit and landed their fists and feet on the monk.
This movement is not insignificant at all.
Jiang Xuening frowned at it.
There were already guards at the city gate, and as soon as they saw this posture, they immediately went over and loudly rebuked and blocked them.
Xie Wei sat in the front car, seeing more clearly.
A sergeant is inspecting and wants to release them into the city.
Xie Wei asked calmly, "What's going on over there?"
The attendant checked the road signs and saw that these people were either rich or wealthy, but he didn't dare to be perfunctory. However, recalling the recent events in the city, he couldn't help but shake his head and say, "What else can we do? Let's call our souls."
Xie Wei raised his eyebrows and said, "Call your soul?"
The servant said, "You're from outside. I don't know. A while ago, there was a bridge to be built outside the Wufu Temple in the city, and a few unscrupulous monks actually wrote people's names on paper and pasted them on the bridge piers that were going to be demolished. The Taoist from Taixu Temple said, 'This is a demonic and evil law. If a person's name is written on paper, their soul will be called away and smashed into the bridge piers. With a human soul bridge, it will be even stronger to build. Well, just now, this monk was walking around with a bowl and bowl, and someone discovered that there was hair hidden in the suitcase. What is it that's not used for evil law?'"
Another group of servants have already passed to obstruct the situation.
Can't withstand the excitement of the crowd.
Especially the woman who was holding the child, her voice was sharp and high: "You didn't want to call my son's soul and ask him his name for what? There's still hair hidden in the box, and you dare to say you're not! What's going on with my son, I insist you pay for it! Take him to the office, take him to the office!"
The monk was being pulled and his face was already bruised and purple. He cried, "I just saw your son's kindness and wanted to pray for him..."
However, no one listened to his defense.
The servants finally stabilized the situation and quickly tied him up, pulling him to see the official. The woman in the original place then cried loudly while holding the child, while the others crowded around the servants and headed towards the yamen.
Xie Wei looked at it for a moment.
Dao Qin Jian Shu couldn't help but look back at him.
He smiled slowly, without any intention of paying attention, and gently lowered the car curtain, saying, "Let's go."
At this moment, Jiang Xuening's carriage was pulled up quite a bit, which happened to capture this scene.
I can't say what it feels like.
Xie Wei looked at the group of people with a dim expression in his eyes, but he couldn't say whether it was pity or ridicule. With such a faint droop of his eyes, all his emotions were suppressed, and even revealed an astonishing
Indifference.
Will a person's name written on paper be called a soul?
I also know that this is impossible.
After listening to the Taoist's words, the people firmly believed in it and even panicked about it. This woman only heard the monk ask for her child's name and started arguing incessantly. The people around her were even more afraid and angry, preferring to believe in their existence or not. She beat the person indiscriminately and pulled them to see the official
Jiang Xuening felt a slight chill in her heart.
Especially when I think of Xie Wei's expression just now.
As she passed by the city gate, the noisy sound was already far away, but for some reason, she suddenly recalled the story that Lv Xian had told her about the request for a flat grain tax in Yin County——
What do Xie Wei really think of people, the world, and Xie Wei?
She accumulated a few days of unhappiness due to boredom, and suddenly she was overwhelmed by something else.
Arriving at the inn, everyone rested.
During dinner at night, Jianshu went out and came back to talk to Xie Wei for a while. Jiang Xuening didn't hear very clearly from a distance, only vaguely aware that the incident of "calling the soul" seemed to be a struggle between the Heavenly Cult and Buddhism, with someone secretly stirring up the flames and adding fuel to the flames.
She thought Xie Wei would make some moves.
I didn't expect this person to stop after listening, without any intention of interfering.
They only rested for half a day at the inn, fed the horses, had a meal, brought some dry food and water, and then left the city in the afternoon on the official road heading north.
She couldn't help but wonder, "I'm leaving in the afternoon, why don't we just take a day off?"
As usual, Dao Qin sat on a horse and walked beside her, saying, "The colder we go north, the colder the weather will be. We need to get to the border before the snow arrives."
Jiang Xuening frowned.
After thinking about it, I realized it made sense and decided not to.
The sky gradually darkened, and I felt sleepy after getting stuck in the car for a while.
After walking seven or eight miles forward, she yawned and felt a bit sleepy. She then draped the thick blanket over her and prepared to lie down. Unexpectedly, just as he was about to move, the car curtain suddenly lifted in the darkness, and a gust of wind blew in. Along with it, another shadow sneaked into the car!
Jiang Xuening was suddenly shocked!
You should know that Daoqin Jianshu and more than ten other skilled players were on both sides, but just now there was no strange sound outside. Even when this person came in, the car was still moving. What a terrifying person should the person be?
At this moment, her whole body was tense and she was about to scream.
However, the newcomer's movements were incredibly swift, bullying her and covering her mouth with a single thrust.
A slightly cool palm, calm and powerful.
The other person's face was also getting closer, and a few strands of hot breath sprayed on her ear, causing her to have goosebumps all over. At this moment, with the extremely dim light blowing out of the car curtain, a familiar silhouette could be seen.
Surprisingly, it's Xie Wei?!
Jiang Xuening blinked in shock and finally dared not move.
Yes.
There are so many people outside, how could there be no movement if it weren't for Xie Wei?
But what is the current situation?
She felt a bit confused.
Xie Wei's clear and graceful face appeared blurry in the darkness, resembling a dormant beast, giving people a sense of danger. Two thin lips tightly pursed, but one eye silently peered out through the narrow gap in the car curtain.
Jiang Xuening looked out along the way.
It took a lot of effort to barely realize that there was a fork in the official road ahead. Their car continued to head north, while Xie Wei's original carriage turned silently towards the west as it passed by the fork, and gradually disappeared into the overlapping tree shadows!
Although Jiang Xuening may not be considered as Bingxue Smart, after seeing this posture, there is still something I don't understand——
Someone is watching them.
My heart beats like a drum for a moment.
She didn't dare to move, afraid that she might accidentally ruin Xie Wei's plan. She let him press herself into the soft blanket, cover her mouth, and even dare not take a breath.
