Nightfall

Chang'an, the world's first male city, is naturally not a worthy person, because this city is too huge, and the empire opened eighteen caves in the four directions of east, west, south, and north, but even so, the officials who enter and leave the city every day The nobles and common people still block these city caves from time to time, and form an extremely long line on the official road.

Ning Que and Sang Sang are in a long line, and wait until the time is really close to dusk before they squeeze to the gate of the city gate. Looking at the sergeants who have carefully checked the luggage packages with serious faces, the sweating Ning Que can't help but squeeze. Lived in reminiscent of a big blockage in the capital of a certain world, he shook his head and scolded twice.

He scolded very little, and the residents of Changan City around him were particularly loud. The folk customs of the Datang Empire were simple and sturdy. For those who seem to be serious, there are really few people who are afraid, but no one dares Ignored the empire's strict laws and broke through.

Has finally reached Ning Que and Sang Sang. The sergeant took over the military documents he passed in and found that the boy was actually a robe, and he had made a lot of military achievements on the front line. The serious expression on his face suddenly became a lot gentler, but when his eyes fell behind Ning Que When he pierced the three handles of the sky diagonally, he couldn't help but frown.

"This is a family heirloom sword, and the ancestors once explained ..." Ning Que explained carefully.

"The sword is there, the sword is dead ..." The sergeant gave him a bored look and waved contemptuously. "I will listen to this kind of words 800 times a day. You can save the little guys, unpack the package, Such two small guys carry such a big package, which one of you is like to come to study, it feels like the whole move. "

He turned to look at the **** umbrella behind Sang Sang, frowning and asked, "What umbrella is this? Why is it so big?"

Sang Sang held his back to hold the middle of the **** umbrella, looked up at the sergeant coldly with a small face, and said, "The umbrella is here, the umbrella is dead."

Sergeant looked at the little black girl and gave a thumbs up to praise: "This statement ... is new."

Ning Que was untied by the lacing of the package. The green face was full of bitter smiles. I thought that in this world, probably only I knew that Sang Sang's umbrella was not a joke, but it was true.

There are some futon blankets in the big package, and there are some miscellaneous things. The only thing that deserves special attention is the boxwood hardwood bow and the few feather arrows. When the sergeant turned over these things, his face changed slightly.

……

……

The gate hole of Chang'an City is long and dark, and the exit on that side of the city is far away. It looks like a small hole that will shine. I can vaguely see a round of sunset falling in the distance. The red light slanted in, but Not far away, the invasion was swallowed by the dark and noisy.

Ning Que and Sang Sang walked there with the people. Sang Sang struggled with the heavy package behind him to make the strap more comfortable on his shoulder. He asked curiously, "Master ... Do Chang'an people talk like the soldier?"

"Almost." Ning Que replied: "The wealth and power of the whole world are concentrated in this city. Chang'an people are inevitable to be prouder, but the more proud they are, the more polite they are to the outsiders, because they want to behave They have their own manners, and they are indeed a group of very handsome people. "

"But there is no pride to show it. Anyone who will hold back will panic. What should the Changan people do? ... They talk! From the carriage to the department gate, all the Changan people are very good at leisure, up to the royal secrets. There is nothing wrong with the blue building, as if there is nothing they do n’t know about the world. Of course, their favorite thing is to talk about the war personnel in the world or the Datang counties in a breezy tone, as if each of them is Prime Minister. "

Sang Sangge laughed out loud, which shows that she was really happy that Ning Que said this.

Previously inspected in the city gate cave did not show the tragic picture of the death of the knife, the **** umbrella is now carried on Ning Que ’s back, and the three knives on Ning Que ’s back were put into the package, the boxwood hardwood The bow was also strung down. After finishing these, the sergeant sergeant let them go without any trouble.

The Tang people are still martial, and it is even more painful to ask them not to have a few guys at their disposal. Therefore, the empire has always been very loose in this aspect. The Changan city allows swords, but not swords, and bows and arrows. But bows and arrows must be wound, and military crossbows are banned. In addition, there are no restrictions.

As for whether you will secretly take the bow string after entering the city, take the knife out again, no one will control you, Changan House will not control, the military will not control, not even the majesty of the emperor in the deep palace How to care about these things.

Ning Que and the two were accustomed to the frontier life. Every night in Weicheng, except the tavern, they could no longer see any lights, and the soldiers could not hear any sound except for gambling, so they entered Chang'an City at dusk, they thought I will see a quiet city that will sleep, but I never thought that Changan City at night is still ...

Is lively everywhere.

The street lights shining the flat bluestone pavement like daylight, people walking on the street like weaves, or standing in front of the booth or pointing at the stars. The men and women in the standing should be together. .

The Tang people's clothes, especially those in Chang'an City, are simple and simple. A tight-sleeved short-lined flat shoe looks extraordinarily neat. Occasionally, there are men with wide sleeves and the cuffs are cut off. The hands are hanging outside the sleeves. Pull out the sword in his waist sheath.

A man in a green shirt walked with a sword, his long beard fluttered in the night wind, and looked like an unsung swordsman. However, when he saw juggling on the street, the man would stop and squeeze in with a group of big girls. He stared nervously at his eyes, then patted his palms and shouted loudly, but when the acrobatic entertainer collected money, he replied to the ruthless look of the worldless swordsman, which meant that the pickling of copper coins and other pickles was broken. of.

The dress of the Changan woman is also very simple and simple. Another word is called cool, and another word is probably nudity. In this warm spring day, the women and girls seen on the street have their arms outside the sleeves of the sarong. The charming young woman was boldly wearing a tube top on the street, and the white tenderness on her chest was striking.

On the street, the bare-chested barbarian looked around curiously with a wine sac. Lunan officials wearing winged caps plucked their beards. Shushumen traversed between the blue buildings of the restaurants, and the merchants of Nanjin were upstairs. Lilan stargazing and drinking, from time to time spread the pretense of the heroic laughter to the street, I do n’t know where the house again came a burst of bamboo, the melody melodious.

The wealth and grace of the entire world seem to be concentrated in Changan City, warmly exciting, full of intoxication, magnificence and gentle snuggle coexist, the sword and the beauty are mutually reflecting each other.

Ning Que held Sang Sang's little hand and walked in the sea of ​​lamps and people with a swaying heart. The stunned look was like a brother and sister from the country.

Thrush-headed finches, scented face-covered millet welcome butterfly powder, hosta powder and pearl powder, that thing called rose paste is rouge? Is that small bottle the legendary toilet water?

Sang Sang, who was holding hands by Ning Que, widened the slender eyes like willow leaves, and looked at the bottles and cans on the street stall, feeling a bit immobile.

There was a little lady walking with her waist swaying in front of her eyes, how could the full buttocks under that skirt bounce like this? A young girl with a dangling tail braided her smile and squeezed past her. How did her faint breath look like an orchid? Among those beautiful young women who choose flowers with men at the stalls, why do you want to wink, do you think the teenager is cute?

Ning Que held Sang Sang's hand and looked around happily. He couldn't remember that Chang'an when he was a child was such a unique place with beautiful scenery.

When I couldn't move, I walked slowly, and the street finally became clearer, but I didn't get the two border city visitors to calm down and relax. I only heard that I didn't know who was yelling in front of me. , I don't know how many Chang'an people poured out from all directions, and blocked a certain street corner ahead.

"The duel!"

Amidst the black crowd, vaguely able to see two men with swords on their waists staring at each other with hatred, their right sleeves were cut off by the sword and thrown on the ground between them.

The world became quiet, and all the people who watched the lively closed their mouths tightly, ensuring that the fairness of the duel penetrated into the blood of every Tang Dynasty. Even if they watched the lively, there were rules about the lively.

"The rule of a duel is that cutting sleeves represents a challenge. If you accept, cut your sleeves."

Ning Que took Sang Sang's hand and squeezed it out of the crowd, explaining to her: "This kind of duel is called a live game, as long as you win or lose. UU reading www.uukanshu.com also has an endless duel called The dead game needs to be confirmed by the government. The challenger of the dead game must cut a knife in his left palm, and if the opponent accepts, he will do the same. "

"Can you not accept it?" Sang Sang asked.

"Of course." Ning Que wiped the sweat on his forehead, patted the big package behind Sang Sang, confirmed that no thief came, and continued: "It's just that sometimes people, especially men, are easy to become idiots, such as For women, love, dignity, when these messy things go crazy. "

The two squeezed out of the crowd, and Sang Sang looked up with a black face and asked, "Why don't we stay and watch? I remember when you were in Weicheng, you enjoyed watching the bustle. When you killed the pig that year, you squatted beside Watched it all night. "

"It's been a lot of killing cattle and sheep, but that was the first time Weicheng had ever killed pigs. That's why we have to take a closer look. Such a thing of duel will not happen in Chang'an one day. There are opportunities. "

Ning Queping said, "And here is Chang'an City. I just want to go to the academy to study honestly, but I don't want to cause any trouble. From now on, we'll be like two dogs, holding our tails together to be humans. "

Sang Sang shook his head, thinking I didn't want to be a bitch. As for you, young master, just kill a few people in Chang'an City. It's really not suitable for you to pick up your tail and be a man.

"Find an inn." As if reading her thoughts, Ning Que said with failure: "I am sleepy."

Sang Sang pointed to a building on the street in front and said, "Look, there is an inn there."
