Hard to be a shadow guard

Chapter 86 Out of the City

Xuan Ying rushed all the way back to the street of beggars, but when he returned with an empty broken bowl, he immediately attracted the attention of a group of beggars.

Without him, only Xuanying went out to beg these few days, and every time it was a big harvest.

But every time he only kept food for himself and the big and small pigeons, most of the rest of the money was distributed to the big guys.

After coming down several times, all the beggars on this street knew that they had just picked up a small rich man!

After all, it was the first time they had seen a beggar who was as generous as Xuan Ying.

The big pigeon was the half-grown boy who was talking about cooperation with Xuanying at that time.

His Xuanying's behavior is simply hate iron and steel, it is very difficult to understand why he did this.

But when Xuanying gave him the little golden flakes in private, he completely forgot about the previous unhappiness.

Who would have thought that Xuan Ying came back so early today, and didn't want to come back with anything...

As soon as Xuanying leaned over, someone couldn't help asking: "Why did you come back so soon, brother? The market is not very good today?"

Although it is not necessary for them to take advantage of Xuanying, it is always much better to get some money for nothing than to go out by themselves.

Xuan Ying was full of worries, and upon hearing this, he just smiled forcedly, but unfortunately, the dust on his face covered up a little curve of his mouth, and there was no difference between smiling and not smiling.

"No, I...I'm not feeling well today, I'll go out tomorrow, come back and rest for a while..."

"That's it!" The beggars suddenly realized, but there was a bit of disapproval in their eyes, "It's only suitable to go out if you're uncomfortable, and you're still on the street if you're not feeling well, so many people will sympathize and enjoy the meal!"

"Brother, you still don't understand our rules. It's not okay to be so lazy. If you have a little pain or illness, you will shrink back. If you don't save some property when you are young, no one will take care of you when you are old..."

A slightly elderly beggar immediately began to preach to Xuanying. Xuanying listened patiently and seemed to be nodding modestly.

But after listening to a few words, he finally got down to business and took two steps back: "I understand, I understand, I will definitely not do this next time, it's just the last time today, it's really uncomfortable, let me go back and lie down for a while."

After all that was said, there was no room for others to comment, so they had no choice but to get out of the way of the interface and let Xuanying walk in.

It's just that after Xuanying left, these people couldn't help getting together and making two sounds——

"Sure enough, he's a newcomer. It's not easy to do if you don't understand our profession hahaha..."

Xuanying still didn't know what happened behind him, he rushed all the way back to the place where he settled, and saw a big pigeon holding a large bundle of hay from a distance, followed by a short child, also holding two hands of hay in his arms.

Among this group of beggars, the little pigeon was the youngest, who was abandoned by some unscrupulous parents and picked up by the big pigeon.

The people here are obviously unwilling to raise a child who can only eat. After several disputes, only the big pigeon is willing to raise it.

In the end, the big pigeon couldn't bear to see the youngest son die innocently, so he simply took the child who had nothing to do with him, named him Gezi, and became brothers.

But when I picked up the young pigeon, the big one was only over ten years old, and I have kept the young pigeon for four years so far...

These are all Xuanying heard from other people in the past two days, but seeing the pair of brothers strenuously walking forward from a distance, Xuanying's heart softened inexplicably.

The big pigeon is very trustworthy, every day when Xuanying goes out to beg, he will take the little pigeon to find hay.

After a few days, the place where Xuanying slept at night was completely surrounded by hay, and there were a few pieces of broken cotton wool inside, making it almost the warmest place on the whole street.

Xuanying once thought of giving gold and silver to big enough pigeons, but he himself didn't have any, and the only gold chain tied to his body could only grind a little gold flakes, so don't even think about breaking it.

But now looking at the two children not far away, Xuan Ying has other thoughts in her heart...

Half an hour later, the little pigeon was huddled in the haystack and sleeping soundly, while the big pigeon sat with its knees hugged, listening to Xuanying talking to him.

"I'm leaving. After much deliberation, I really don't trust you two brothers..." Xuan Ying smiled, "Although I am also in danger, I still want to take the two of you away together."

"If I'm alive, I can protect each other with all my might, but if something unexpected happens...I'm only worried that the two of you brothers have gone to a strange place, can you grow up well?"

"So I also want to ask your opinions, do you want to follow me to leave to make a living, or do you want to stay at least life is safe?"

Xuanying paused, and then said: "It's a pity that I haven't decided where to go yet, but with my imagination, I always feel that I can add two accompanying children for nothing."

"Now that I'm telling you the pros and cons, you should also think about whether you will leave with me."

Xuanying's gaze was full of tenderness, and the patience in it was simply unprecedented in my life.

"Well, if I can live for two more years, I will naturally try my best to save up property for you and my brother. Whether it is studying or doing business in the future, I will never beg for a living, and of course I don't have to worry about my future wife and children. It’s all impossible.”

"As for the disadvantages...you also know that I am sick, and I may die one day, leaving you two brothers alone. If I don't leave you with silver taels by then, I will be sad. gone."

"Eh?" Xuan Ying suddenly thought of something, and let out a sound of surprise.

The big pigeon looked up, only to see Xuanying suddenly smiled like a sly cat: "It's not that there is no money!"

Xuanying raised his arm and handed it in front of the big pigeon. Seeing no one on the left and right, he lifted up half of his sleeve, and after a ray of golden light, the gold chain on his wrist was impressively exposed.

"If I die, you can cut off my arm, and the gold chain on it will also protect you from food and clothing."

After finishing speaking, Xuanying pulled up her sleeves again, stared fixedly at the big pigeon, and waited for his reply.

When the big pigeon first saw the gold chain, the astonishment in its eyes could not be concealed at all, and the flash of greed was even more shocking.

But after Xuanying said the following words, he pinched himself in the dark, and only then did he curb the evil thoughts in his heart.

He didn't ask what happened to the inexplicable gold chain on Xuanying's wrist.

"Ah..." Big Pigeon sighed and lowered his head quietly, "I knew that you would leave sooner or later."

"You are different from the rest of us, and you feel different... It's not that it's bad, but it's great, anyway, it's just not our kind of people, and it's not something we can climb up to. "

The big pigeon said sadly: "But I didn't expect you to be so kind to me and the little pigeon. It's a little surprising..."

Xuan Ying chuckled: "Really? Then you want to leave with me?"

"I..." The big pigeon didn't look up, and naturally didn't let Xuan Ying see the tears in his eyes, "I'm sorry, I'm still afraid."

He was just a child who grew up in a beggar's nest, and he didn't have much ambition in the first place, so of course he yearned for the good life that Xuanying said.

But in the same way, he was also afraid of the bad things Xuan Ying said, and even feared that he would overwhelm his longing for a while.

Xuan Ying was silent for a long while, and originally wanted to persuade her a few more words, but remembering her own situation, she finally swallowed her words.

"That's fine, I respect your opinion." Xuanying touched Da Gezi's finger, "Big Gezi, my name is Xuan Ying."

"Remember my name, if I have a place to stand in three years later, I will find someone to come back to pick you up."

"If not...then forget about my existence."

The big pigeon felt a little bit of residual warmth on his fingers and left. Looking up, he saw Xuanying limping away with his numb right leg.

He couldn't help but cry...

Two days later, Xuanying found a pair of escorts to escort Chaimu out of the city, sneaked in quietly, followed the escort to avoid the inspection of the city gate guards, and left the city safely.

Just as Xuanying was slowly moving forward with the team leaving the city, another person climbed onto the city wall of Wangjing.

Tianren looked down at the team gradually going away, but his eyes followed one person all the time, and he didn't leave for a long time.

"Bon Voyage."

The fluttering words dissipated in the air, but there was no ripple in the end...

When Xie Yiqian heard that Tianren had gone to the entrance of the city wall, he was taken aback immediately, and hurriedly snatched the horse and galloped over without caring about anything else.

When he came in a hurry, there was still a kneeling Tianren standing on the city wall, but there was only billowing dust in the distance, and there were no traces of mysterious shadows.

Xie Yiqian lowered his head and looked down at Tianren, a mouthful of blood rushed to his throat, and he swallowed it alive.

"Is that why you don't know what you're talking about?" Xie Yiqian asked gnashing his teeth, almost wanting to slap him down.

Tianren knew he had committed a serious crime, so he could only accept the punishment with lowered eyes.

However, Xie Yiqian only took a few deep breaths, and finally suppressed the anger in his heart.

He glanced at Tianren coldly, but flung his sleeves and left, aiming to go straight to the palace in the center of the city.

The first emperor was buried soon, Xie Yi sneaked into the palace two days ago, and saw the back of the old lady from a distance.

He originally wanted to go over to comfort the old man, but the queen mother turned around and saw him, she was just stunned for a moment, then turned and left without looking back.

Only Xie Yiqian was left in a daze, and finally realized - he and the Queen Mother could never return to the past.

Unexpectedly, it was only a blink of an eye, even Xuan Ying was completely out of his sight, and he was no longer alone.

Xie Yiqian rode his horse and galloped, deliberately avoiding the downtown area, and rattled the whip in his hand.

A bone-piercing cold wind hit his face, like a knife cutting across Xie Yiqian's face, but he didn't realize it.

Xie Yiqian held back the soreness of his nose, even the redness of his eyes could not be corroded by the cold wind, he could only tell himself over and over in his heart——

Go as you go, this king is not rare!

It's just a useless shadow guard, do you think this king is indispensable?

Big deal, big deal...

Count him as a sinner, and now it's time to pay off the debt.

After he supported the new emperor's ascension to the throne and went to the fiefdom, the sky was high and the emperor was far away, so he could go wherever he wanted.

For the rest of my life, dozens of years later, could it be possible that I still can't find a Profound Shadow?

Xie Yiqian gritted his teeth: "You wait for me, I will sooner or later... catch you back with my own hands!"
