Chapter 680 (1/2)
Although the sun is still at the end of the first ten days of the new year's holiday, Guangzhou, a large city with a large population, recently cancelled the original lively new year's celebrations. Every family wore plain clothes, hung mourning sticks and held spontaneous memorial ceremonies.
In general, the square gate of a wide area city will be opened and closed at sunset. After that, it will be impossible to get in and out again. Therefore, under the twilight of the sunset, the people entering the city at the gate of the city are in a hurry. What's more, they take up their bags and run all the way.
Suddenly, outside the South Gate of wanwan City, at the end of Daxia road not far away, a carriage appeared. At this time, it was racing with the dark at a very fast speed. If someone watched carefully, they would be surprised to find that it was a very valuable horse in the west of Xinjiang.
He is tall and powerful. His hair is like satin. He radiates the light of bronze under the setting sun. He is a bronze baron.
This bronze horse is particularly large, even about the size of the carriage behind it. It seems that the original heavy carriage will float upward between the four hoofs, which shows the speed of the horse.
Sima Annan, with a handsome face, was sitting in front of the carriage, waving the reins constantly, controlling the bronze horse to speed up, and hurtling at the city gate which was about to be closed in front of him. In the carriage behind him, a girl's scream came out, trying to pierce people's eardrums.
Sima Annan held the reins with one hand, held out the other hand, covered his ears, and then opened his mouth and cried out:
”you Ruier, can you be quiet for a while? My childe's ears will be called deaf by you.”
”But I'm afraid, ah!”
Inside the carriage, the girl was still sending out a shrieking response. At this time, the whole carriage just passed a gentle slope, and suddenly the carriage had a violent bump. The scream in the carriage was even worse:
”slow down, slow down!”
After hearing this, Sima Annan could not help but show a meaningful smile. For the first time, he found that the only daughter of the Ministry of rites, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, was afraid of being quick. This was too strange. Then Sima Annan opened his mouth and continued to speak out: ”once the sun sets, the gate of this wide area city will be closed. If you don't want to be with me If you spend the night outside the city, be quiet. It will be dark soon. ”
After a hundred breaths, the setting sun on the sky completely sinks on the horizon. Then the ancient gate of Wancheng city closes slowly. Just before the closure, tongjuma pulls the carriage and rushes into the city, accompanied by youruier's scream of killing pigs.
The impact of the carriages was extremely loud, so people who were still walking in the city gate fled to all directions. Sima Annan pulled the reins hard and controlled the bronze horse to stop. Then he got up and bowed apologetically to the people around.
However, the curtain of the carriage behind him was pulled open, and then you Ruier, with a red face, jumped out of it and waved his fist. He hit Sima Annan violently. He coughed while hammering, and even his voice was hoarse:
”Sima Annan, if you don't kill you today, I will write you upside down!”
A moment later, night came to wanwan city. Today, Sima Annan, dressed in coarse plain cloth instead of wearing silk white clothes, drove his carriage slowly along the streets of Wan Wan Cheng. However, you Ruier, who was still full of anger, was not in the carriage. Instead, he sat beside the former and looked around curiously at the city with the longest history in summer.
The night in Wan Wan Cheng was originally lively, but at this time it was quiet and solemn. On both sides of the road and at the door of each house, the people spontaneously lit a red candle, emitting a faint light. Looking from afar, it was like a sea of stars like a dream, and like a shining beacon, guiding the direction of the return of the deceased.
