Chapter 66 Stalking
In autumn, the afternoon sun shines brightly, reflecting the city in ancient and vivid.
Mo Bai wanted to calm down and take a good look at this city that is also unnegable even though it is in a different world.
From the moment he woke up, he was thinking about what kind of world and era he was in?
If a person wants to quickly adapt to a strange environment, he will subconsciously find coordinates that he can be familiar with in his own cognition to give himself a sense of belonging.
Mo Bai is of course no exception, but for a long time, this Daxia is undoubtedly very different from the world he is familiar with.
Just as that glory of the door, he has never been seen in the history of any dynasty.
But fortunately, if he does not worry about these specificities and grasps the pulse of the times, he can still find a familiar framework in his familiar past and history to define the environment of this life.
That’s right, it was the most turbulent era in modern history, at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China!
He came from Pingjing to Mingzhu all the way, passing through many cities, and was constantly confirming his guesses.
But it is not that easy. In the era when the war has not yet completely broken out, many cities along the way have no particularly distinctive characteristics to confirm the atmosphere of the times.
In most cities, the people still live in the feudal pattern, repeating their own poor and backward lives day after day, without the sparks of civilization and backward collision between each other.
Therefore, Mo Bai has been looking forward to coming to Mingzhu because he knew that if he was not mistaken, then this "Oriental Pearl" in his previous life would definitely give him an accurate answer.
And in fact, it is true that it is not necessary to wait until now. When he walked off the dock, the voices of the newspaper boys who came to his ears immediately gave him the most obvious coordinates of the times.
There is no doubt that there is nothing better than that when the newspaper boys stand on the street and dare to comment loudly on the secret affairs of the state without any concealment, allowing Mo Bai to clearly grasp that breath of freedom.
Here, feudalism may still exist, but the thoughts have been open, just like the weather that should be found in the troubled times in the history that I am familiar with.
At this time, Mo Bai sat in front of the bed, looking at the bustling crowd on the wide street, looking at their different styles of clothing.
Suits, long skirts, robes, short shirts, student outfits!
Carriage, car, human-powered tricycle, rickshaw!
On the ancient buildings, there are huge and distinctive signs.
Vendors, elites, literati, warriors, Westerners...
No need to doubt anymore. All of this gathered in Mo Bai's eyes, allowing him to find the imprint of the times most clearly.
"Hu..." He let out a sigh of relief, but Mo Bai did not pay more attention. It was obvious that at this moment, he was not so quiet because the discussion could still be heard from the tavern.
Close the window, get up and come to the table, pour a cup of tea, hold it in my hand, and watch the water rippling, but put it down again.
Come to the bed and sit cross-legged.
He was the only one sitting quietly. At this moment, the deepest waves in his eyes were still rising.
That's right, the news that came this morning still made him unable to indifference.
Not for the so-called assassination truth, can anyone know the truth better than himself?
But after hearing the news of the death of the prince, the queen who had only one encounter but was not very familiar with him for some reason always flashed through his mind.
After knowing this period of time, he had already learned that the queen had only two sons.
One is himself, and the other person, the dead prince, was the emperor brother he had seen that day.
At that time, Mo Bai didn't know his identity, but only knew that he was the emperor's brother, and he once wondered why he was targeting him like this?
Later, after learning from Tiexiong that the man was actually the prince, he became even more puzzled.
How could he be so disliked by a prince who was not threatening?
However, afterwards, I figured it out a little, and it turned out to be related to the queen's attitude towards her and her never-seen princess.
Princess Lin Suyin is said to have the order of a phoenix, but it is said that His Highness the Crown Prince had long been interested in her, but he did not want to be worthy of her in the end...
At this time, the prince was dead, and there was no such sadness as brotherly feelings. Perhaps even the former Ming King would not feel so sad, but Mo Bai could not help but think of the queen who was suffering the pain of losing her son.
The obvious worry in his eyes flashed, Mo Bai shook his head gently, his eyes flashed again, and the crazy life was recalled in his ears again.
The crazy life sentence, "Who will save the country, who will save the country?"
Mo Bai knows the trend of the times more than anyone else, but he never thought that chaos would actually arise from him.
Close your eyes and hold the seal in your hand, Mo Bai fell into silence.
He can only leave everything out of his mind for the time being. He is too weak and he is redundant to say anything. He thinks about everything more.
Only by surviving first is what he needs to do most.
He needs time.
But he probably didn't expect that there was not much time to give him peace, and this just arrived pearl was not that peaceful.
……………………
...
Xingdeli!
This is a small street.
Tiexiong got off the rickshaw and walked alone on the street. His steps were a little irresistible and anxious.
I was about to see Ning'er. This month, he was of course worried, and he was extremely eager to know if his tortured sister was doing well.
His eyes were walking along the corner of the wall, and his eyes were not conspicuous, but he made him look very familiar with the marks.
Although I have never been to Mingzhu, I have made arrangements long ago and have discussed what happened after I come here long ago.
This is a small street in the house, which is obviously not as good as a bustling avenue, and the environment is quite comfortable.
Tiexiong walked along the way and finally settled in front of a yard.
"It's this!" He looked at the yard with a flash of excitement in his eyes.
But he still resisted his urgency, walked forward for a while, and observed the surrounding environment with his eyes.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Tiexiong paused in his heart, and looked at the entrance of the yard with a very obscure look at two figures in black short suits.
His years of vigilance made him realize that there was something wrong with these two people at the first time. It was not that he was observing himself, but that their eyes obviously fell on the courtyard gate from time to time.
Tie Xiong's mind suddenly became alert, his eyes flashed slightly, and he walked past the two of them quietly. The two glanced at him and stopped paying attention.
Tiexiong went all the way and did not turn around. He was a little further away from the entrance of the alley before sitting down at a teahouse on the side of the road, calling a cup of tea, and began to observe with a faint look.
"What happened?" He seemed to be leisurely at this time, but in fact his heart tightened instantly.
No one knows the abilities of his fellow brothers better than him. With such obvious scrutiny, it is impossible for the fellow brothers to not discover...
With a glance at the two figures in black again, Tiexiong's eyes changed constantly. Although it was just the first time Chuchu saw him, he could find that the two were not good.
His eyes are fierce, and he has no standing appearance. He looks like a gangster and a scattered person in society.
Tiexiong finally got up again, went to a restaurant next door to buy some food, held it in his hand and walked towards the courtyard again.
In any case, the brothers and sisters did not leave any other signals to themselves, which means they were still there and did not remind themselves that they could not pass.
When he passed by the two men again, it was obvious that the two men had noticed him. One of them looked unhappy and shouted at him, "What are you doing when you walk around?"
Unscrupulous!
It is obvious that these two people are undoubtedly the gangsters.
"Want to find trouble?" Tiexiong paused, glanced at the two of them, his voice was low, but it was extremely intimidating.
"Hey, I said..." The person who spoke first was unhappy and was about to walk up.
Tiexiong said nothing, raised his footsteps and stepped on the ground: "Crack!"
The bluestone obviously had cracks.
"Well..." How could the two of them not be able to tell the difference with such obvious movement? Their faces changed: "Let's go..."
He didn't say anything harshly anymore, and turned around and ran away.
Tiexiong looked at their backs and frowned again...
But he didn't get entangled anymore, walked quickly and headed straight towards the courtyard.
