Chapter 190

Chang'an city is too big, so even if it is prosperous, there are still dilapidated places in the most secret corners. There is an abandoned house at the end of Dongcheng 16th Street. It is said that it was once the residence of a noble family. Later, the family lost in Chang'an City and couldn't get along any more. It transferred the house to a rich merchant at a low price. Before long, there was a homicide in the rich merchant's house, and one of them was poisoned. Although it was later found that the real murderer was his business competitor, the house was no longer inhabited, and I don't know how many years it had been abandoned.

Because Chang'an city is too big, it is obviously too hard to take an elegant name for all the streets. Therefore, simply distinguish between East-West streets and North-South streets. The shop rented by Fang Xie is in East 23rd Street, which is still a distance from the East 18th Street where the house is located. It takes at least an hour to walk.

A cloud blocked half of the moon, and the broken moonlight shone into the house from the broken window. During the day, there may be brave children who climb over the ruins and come in to play. In the dark at night, someone will come in and scare themselves.

The snow has not completely melted, especially under the residual wall, it almost still looks like a heavy snow day.

An ownerless wild cat crouched on the wall and shrunk into a ball. It couldn't find warmth in the cold winter night of Chang'an city. I don't know whether it was because I was hungry and lost my spirit, or I was too cold to move. When the big bird like black shadow flew into the yard, the wild cat didn't respond. When the black shadow slowly floated into the house, it met a wood. The wild cat was surprised and screamed and fled away.

The shadow ignored the wild cat, shook his robe and went in through the half closed door. The place was so secretive that he seemed satisfied.

The room was so dark that I could hardly see my fingers. In addition to the moonlight penetrating through the broken window, it also had some human spirit. All other places felt like hell.

The shadow didn't seem to dislike the deep darkness at all. He slowly turned his head and glanced at a corner paved with some straw. When he was about to get there, he suddenly stopped and looked at the faint two cold awns suddenly emerging from the corner. It was a wild dog. There were several puppies lying in the straw kennel. Those two cold spots were the fierce and vigilant eyes of the bitch.

At the moment when the bitch opened her mouth and showed her sharp fangs to roar, the man suddenly opened her eyes. The bitch protecting her cubs was so frightened that she purred a few times and fell on the ground shivering.

The shadow walked slowly to the bitch, squatted down, stretched out his hand and stroked her dirty hair.

The bitch fell on the ground as if paralyzed with fear.

The man's eyes softened gradually, and he stretched out his hand to hold the bitch's mouth. The bitch wanted to open her mouth, but she couldn't, and squeezed out a few low cries of begging. His hand holding the dog's mouth shook suddenly, and the dog's head suddenly broke. It was disconnected from the neck, but strangely, no drop of blood came out.

Under a ray of moonlight, the broken neck of the bitch can be seen with crystal ice.

He threw the dog's head aside and kicked the dog's body away. The man squatting by the kennel had a moonlight on his face. He could see that he didn't seem very old. His face was dirty and his mouth was covered with black stains. It looked as if he had just eaten the greasy pig legs and left a lot of residue on his face.

But he didn't eat anything. He just didn't wash his face for a long time.

What left on the corner of his mouth was not oil, but blood.

Sitting down in the straw kennel, he picked up a puppy that could only make a faint cry, and looked at it in front of his eyes for three minutes. Then he sighed faintly, put the dog on his mouth and bit its neck.

What is more strange than breaking the bitch's neck is that the puppy was bitten to death, but no drop of blood was frozen. The man greedily sucked all the slightly hot dog blood into his mouth like a big drink. In the dark, his Adam's apple floated up and down, and a sound like drinking water squeezed out of his throat.

About two minutes later, he sucked the blood from the pup.

He seemed to enjoy the food. His blood red tongue stuck out and licked his lips like aftertaste. Then he began to eat meat. The pup has fur even if he is young, but he is like a wolf. After tearing off the dog's skin, he starts swallowing viscous internal organs.

In the silent darkness, the sound of chewing seemed so clear and audible.

He ate slowly and carefully without wasting any flesh and blood.

After filling the whole pup in his stomach except for the skin, he pinched a very young bone and wrote a word with the remaining blood on the wall. Then he comfortably stretched his waist, shrunk and lay down in the kennel, as if enjoying the warmth left by the bitch.

The remaining two pups smelled blood, but because they were hungry and cold, they still looked for the temperature and slowly squeezed next to his head. In this way, the two puppies snuggled up with a man who had just eaten the puppies and fell asleep.

I don't know when the wild cat returned to the wall. It looked at the curled figure in the broken room in fear, and ran away again after struggling for a long time. Maybe he saw the dog's head, maybe he saw the puppy's skin.

……

……

At least an hour and a half before the sun rose, Fang Xie had already punched in the small garden of Sanjin Houfu. Sweat soaked the clothes. If you look carefully, you can see light white heat coming out of him. After the body gets hot, Fang Xie simply takes off the single clothes on the upper body. The moon hung low, and the moonlight sprinkled on his strong body, reflecting a faint brilliance.

There was a layer of fine sweat on the angular pectoral and abdominal muscles, which seemed to have some dark luster like metal.

Fang Xie pulled out the remnant knife from the ground, right hand first and then left hand. After half an hour of practice, his breathing was still very smooth and even. After practicing the knife technique, he habitually sat down cross legged and tried to feel his Dantian Qi sea. Five minutes later, he opened his eyes and smiled. He was not disappointed.

Has become a habit, where there is any disappointment.

Still can't feel the sea of air.

He asked many people that when they perceive the sea of gas, their internal strength will hover in the sea of gas, and there will be a warm feeling in their lower abdomen, which is a luxury for fangxie.

Lifting his clothes, Fang Xie walked slowly to the well, shook up a bucket of icy water, soaked the towel and wiped his body carefully. After everything was done, it became darker. It seems that the darkness before dawn is always deeper than the middle of the night. At this time, most people are sleeping soundly.

Fang Xie returned to his room, changed into a clean uniform of the martial arts academy, and didn't wake up the big dogs. He went out directly to find the coachman who had been waiting at the door. The carriage was ready. The coachman patted on the ass of the young horse. The horse snorted, spewed out two white fumes, and stepped on the last moonlight to accelerate forward.

Many officials have arrived outside the Taiji palace. It is still some time before the Palace door is opened. Adults get into the cars of familiar friends and chat together. Outside the palace gate, two rows of flying fish robes in the bodyguard's office stood like nails. The bodyguards in big red cloaks pressed the horizontal knife like stone statues.

Fang Xie asked the coachman to find a side position to stop. He calculated the time and estimated that the Palace door was about to open. Instead of letting the coachman get cold here with himself, he asked him to go back first. The coachman thanked and drove the carriage onto the road. It's still early. He can make up for his sleep when he goes back.

This is Fang Xie's first close look at the Tai Chi Palace at night. The forbidden soldiers on the palace wall patrol back and forth with torches. In the distance, the bangs of playing watch could be heard faintly.

It was a quiet and peaceful picture. Fang Xie was fascinated.

This kind of picture is vaguely familiar, which only exists in the scenes of those ancient costume TV dramas in memory. Fang Xie couldn't help but look down at his hospital clothes and said whether he would become a TV figure in a few years? This feeling is boring but wonderful. It can always pass the time.

After waiting for about 20 minutes, the adults got out of the car and stood outside the palace gate according to their grades. Fang Xie watched them warm their hands one by one, and then looked at their clothes, so he was a little proud. When one reaches a certain level of cultivation, he will not be afraid of cold and heat. Fang Xie can't practice, but his body is good enough, so he won't feel so cold in the middle of winter.

The gate of the palace was opened with a squeak. The eunuch on duty came out and sang a few sound fields according to the usual practice, and then led the adults into it.

Fang Xie waited until they all went in and found that the little eunuch Mu San was already waiting for him in the door opening.

"I'll give you a gift."

The little eunuch, flushed with cold, looked at Fang Xie's tall and straight figure with envy and said in his heart that he was really not cold in a single coat?

"Father in law, don't be polite. Please wait."

Fang Xie returned the salute with a smile. When he came to Mu San, he stuffed a bag of things into Mu San's hand: "when he came, Sun Ji's hanging furnace pancakes in the East twenty-four were already cooked. I brought some for you by the way. It tastes delicious when it's hot."

The little eunuch Mu San weighed the weight of the small package and knew that it must be more than a few worthless hanging furnace cakes. He did not refuse, stuffed it into his cuffs and took the lead in going out to lead the way: "Your Majesty hardly slept last night. General Yu manlou of zuowuwei, Minister Zong Lianghu of the Ministry of war and Minister Peiyan of the yellow gate just came out of Dongnuan Pavilion..."

It's like nagging at home, but it's very quiet.

"Your Majesty seems to have lost his temper and lost something last night... Lord Zong Lianghu went in with a thick pile of official documents, but he didn't know what it was. General Yu manlou came out and went to the toilet. He didn't look very good. Lord Pei didn't talk much and didn't react differently."

"Well"

Fang Xie nodded and wondered what kind of attitude he should have in front of his majesty?

PS: I haven't participated in the college entrance examination. I haven't felt that atmosphere. But I can understand the students' mood. I have been studying hard for 12 years and struggling in these two days. Come on, I wish all the Teenagers Participating in the college entrance examination can achieve their wishes. I wish you all a happy life.
