Zhui Xu

As night fell, the city of Chengdu was gradually lit up, sporadic at first, and then turned into lakes of light soaked in pieces.

Since the arrival of Ning Yi, the achievements of Gephysics have been bred for more than ten years. Two years after the large-scale outbreak in Chengdu, it has already made this place one of the most special existences in the entire era.

The industrial area on the outskirts of the city is spreading into the distance. Bits and pieces of light illustrate the fact that many factories are still working even at night. With the military industry of the Huaxia Army as the core, a large number of foreign influxes have also detonated the city's domestic demand. Cement, masonry, sand, firewood... All kinds of industries related to construction and people's livelihood are booming. Open technology sharing, countless foreign businessmen began to take root here, learning and promoting the technology of various industries and handicrafts.

Sichuan and Shu have been a land of abundance since ancient times, but during the Taiping Festival, due to the prosperity and prosperity of the Central Plains, this place is at best a good place to retire. However, after the central plains and south of the Yangtze River fell and wars broke out everywhere, the Huaxia army's record of defeating the Jurchen West Route Army finally attracted a large number of gentry and merchants to enter.

In the past, the business of the Wu Dynasty was quite developed. Now, as long as there are some merchants with a little heart and some wealth, most of them will want to come to the southwest to have a look. Once they see the technology disclosed by the Huaxia Army, people will more or less A small amount of land will also pay an investment here to lay a foundation. Because any discerning merchant will know that even if they can't make money in the southwest, the accumulation of technology and the exploration of efficiency here will determine the future life and death of a business.

After two years of rapid development, the industrial areas on the outer circle of the city are still messy, and some places are crowded with shacks, but the scene of a large number of people gathering together, and the dots of light spots in the night still show a strange and lively atmosphere. .

And between the industrial districts, there are a large number of passers-by even at night. At the north and south ends of the city, there are two pathways spreading light that form a wonderful scene. These are the carriage tracks that were just completed in the middle of this year. Large carriages are placed on top of them, and pack horses are used as power to haul heavy loads. The lanterns supported by these large freight carriages will stretch out into a piece of moving and orderly light path at night, which is very pleasing to the eye.

And this kind of wooden rail trailer was initially considered by critics in the city as a beautiful and useless "weird move", and some people thought it was just Ning Yi's "quirk". However, after several months of operation, the efficiency of these large trucks in terms of cargo data shocked everyone.

With the same number of pack horses, rail wagons can even easily pull twice as much cargo at twice the speed; currently, with newly mounted horses and several failures, rail wagons can still carry goods as efficiently as ordinary wagons Such data once made the discussion of efficiency a hot topic in the city for several months, and it also greatly eased the problem of cargo handling after the efficiency and quantity of various businesses outside the city developed.

The light of the peripheral factory area at most comes from the overtime work of the factory, and the light of lanterns on some bustling streets becomes more dense after passing through the ancient city wall and reaching the inner city. All kinds of food, theatre, restaurants and teahouses all make up the nightlife of this city. An old Confucianist and a new Confucianist in a gown are talking in the building, and people of new culture are reading newspapers and talking about current affairs in the hall of the teahouse. This is a city of change, and there are many things to exchange every day. .

And among the lively streets, the boats on the boating waterways, and the public carriages walking in various important blocks, with the flow of light, like the important blood vessels in the city, the blood flows continuously. Some pedestrians on the road carry lanterns, chatting among the ancient trees while walking gracefully, there are also businessmen in a hurry, or travelers who have just arrived in the noble land...or they are alone in ragged clothes, or in small groups, shouting Calling friends, looking at the bustling night in the city, or the strange scene on the street, I was shocked.

The clash of cultures is happening fiercely here.

As the two poles of this cultural conflict, one end is naturally the group represented by the Confucian scholars in the city. This is not only the elite bred by the old culture but also the substantive mainstream culture. Their basic feature is usually to wear elegant long gowns. For the old and respected, the society whose thinking is extremely difficult to change is usually called Laoru;

Corresponding to the old Confucianism is the relatively young "New Confucianism". Many young people are often disciples of great Confucianism. During the debates in the army, they also gradually accepted the influence of efficiency thinking and object thinking. In terms of external characteristics, "New Confucianism" often wear Chinese army-style boots or shoes when they wear long gowns. , some of them also carry relatively convenient graphite pens and notebooks for writing at any time, and they are matched with more convenient pockets sewn in the gown;

The thinking corresponding to Confucianism is naturally the investigation of things, the four peoples, and the dialectical materialist thinking that not many people can clearly grasp that the Huaxia Army has always advocated. Gewu pays attention to efficiency and evidence, everyone is equal and downplays superiority and inferiority, and dialectical materialism requires the matching of teleology and methodology. In short, Confucius' remarks are his assumptions about how to achieve a Datong society in the Spring and Autumn Period. Limitation, anyone who can't see teleology, who thinks that what the most holy teacher said is all the truth, who thinks that a methodology is applicable to everything, is a big fool...

The conflict of cultural views is of course complicated, and the external presentation of the thinking belonging to the Huaxia Army is mostly reflected in the bunt outfit with pockets all over it.

In the past culture, the graceful long gown was a symbol of dignity, while bunts mostly belonged to lowly manual laborers. On the one hand, cultural people can slow down and look good, and on the other hand, it is also because the development of the weaving industry determines that soft fabrics often look better only when they are made into long shirts.

After Ning Yi's rebellion, first of all, he put forward a large number of new requirements on military uniforms, and the Su family's weaving industry background catered to the needs of these requirements. After more than ten years of innovation and improvement, the military uniforms of the Huaxia Army are now straight and straight. handsome. This kind of development has gradually entered the civilian clothing industry, and it has spawned a large number of "short" dresses that are clean and convenient for work, and will not be caught by machinery, which has become a symbol of cultural confrontation.

Now in the city of Chengdu, the young people who support Ning Yi’s four-people thinking and efficiency thinking mainly come from a series of military officers who have participated in the training courses of the Huaxia Army. They are either members of the army or government officials. The symbol of clothing is not necessarily persistent. But at the social level other than these, a large number of workers who can read and write, write and calculate, and managers quickly became the main force of the ideological confrontation on the side of the Huaxia Army.

Among these people, some were down-and-out poor people in the past, more were ordinary people from poor families, and there were also a small number of low-status merchants and accountants. In the few years after the Huaxia Army jumped out of Liangshan, various training courses were held to attract people from the bottom of society to enter the factory, so that these people could easily read and write and learn arithmetic. During this process, many smart people worked or Discovered during learning, followed by an active learning process, beginning to understand the reality of the world.

The Huaxia Army’s training class focuses on actual performance, and the people who stand out have superior IQs. In the process of the rapid development of the Huaxia Army’s industrial base, these people have gradually become unique figures in their own fields. Some of them have an understanding of the assembly line and overall efficiency. Deep, some have made rapid breakthroughs in the field of mathematics, and some have figured out the principles of management by themselves. These people began to spontaneously contribute to the "theoretical legitimacy" of the Huaxia Army.

Their knowledge is relatively scientific, and their attitude is also relatively extreme, but in the discussions and quarrels, these "crash" culture people in work and life are also rapidly strengthening their own three views and logical structure, and the symbol of their unification is the Huaxia Army bunt uniform with full pockets and suitable for work. Most of them will cut off the long hair of "Shou Zhi's parents" for the convenience of work and care. Turning to keep a cropped or even bald head, this is also some of the issues that they are often criticized in the disputes of public opinion in the city.

During the fierce written debate, Ning Yi deliberately exported private goods in several anonymous articles, defining these people as "new cultural people". Now this term has gradually been accepted by the public, but we still have no way of knowing. In this era, will this term eventually become a derogatory or a commendatory concept?

Based on the dispute between these two poles, more exotic clothes appeared in the city.

The cultural conflict is fierce and chaotic. It was knocked off the track of Confucianism, but it did not enter the direction Ning Yi was familiar with. New thinking and old culture tore each other, but some of them gradually merged. Strange ideas are also appearing one after another.

But in any case, amidst such fierce cultural debates and ever-changing construction and development, the whole of Chengdu now presents a style of "in the middle of heaven and earth". , and now it has become the political and cultural center of the whole world.

On an October night, a political and cultural storm was brewing over the city, which made countless people whisper and feel uneasy.

In the north of the city, the most precious dining garden is called "Yingzhou". The lanterns in the garden have already been cleverly lit up among the ancient pines and cypresses, and the courtyards and rockeries. Smelling of alcohol, Lin Qiu ran down from the car, found a corner, leaned on the wall and retched a few times.

There were several people in Langyuan who were about to come over to welcome them. Seeing this scene, the leader also rushed over, while the middle-aged fat man who got off the car with Lin Qiu waved his hands: "Lin Chu drank too much, this is the second time, I was taken from Hu Haiwen and his gang of grandsons were dragged over from the dinner, so let's save face, everyone take it easy."

"Let's make another date after the second match." The person who greeted him lightly patted Lin Qiu's shoulder, heartbroken, "Old Tan, why don't you take good care of Lin Chu."

The people who greeted them agreed: "That's right, another day, another day!"

"I was wrong, it's not that you are in a hurry to see Chu Lin." The middle-aged fat man apologized and retorted.

The body is getting worse...

Leaning against the wall, Lin Qiu felt the changes in his body and lost his mind for a moment, but then he waved his hands and turned around: "My Brother Chen still loves me." He had a slight smile on his face, "But it doesn't matter that Old Tan Firstly, brother Chen summoned me, how dare I not come as a director, and secondly, I was tired of eating at the place invited by the surnamed Hu, so I also wanted to sit here."

He had a bit of a smirk, and his words were not very kind, and the other party immediately clasped his fists: "No, no, Lin Chu's status is not in the same position as those of us. Isn't it all dependent on Lin Chu? The big move recently, I really want to see it, this is why Lao Tan..."

"Can't you see me in the office?" Lin Qiu looked at him, and after a while, he turned into a smiling face, and patted the other person's shoulder: "Okay, okay, eat, eat, actually...Brother Chen, I've been really busy recently, but it's a good thing for you guys, I don't know why you guys are so nervous, just walk around and let me have a good bite..."

His complexion softened, and everyone felt relieved, and immediately surrounded him and went inside. After a while, the group went up to the large private room on the second floor, and sat down in front of the luxurious round table, and all kinds of dishes immediately flowed up like water. Among the crowd, the leader surnamed Chen took a piece of golden tofu into Lin Qiu's bowl.

"I know that Lin Chu likes tofu. The new dish here, Bazhen tofu, uses eight kinds of delicacies from the mountains and the sea. The one that stands out is the simplicity! By the way, shall we still serve the wine?"

"Up, you can't put on airs in front of you brothers."

"It's the greatest face for Lin Chu to come here. Then drink a little."

With a smile, he poured the wine, Lin Qiu moved his chopsticks towards the tofu, and the other party said: "Lin Chu, it's not that we can't hold our breath. In the past two months, our hearts are surging. Seeing that the Huaxia Army is really going to attack , to open—a feat that has never been seen in a thousand years, we all want to help if we can, isn’t this waiting for the Lin Department and the boss to give orders—”

In the elegantly furnished room, which is delicious and delicious, with intoxicating lights, everyone agrees, and Lin Qiu raises his glass and then laughs too...

…

"The gathering of wind and cloud. The rain is about to come."

When Lin Qiu spared his busy schedule to go to one meal after another, in a relatively quiet courtyard at the southwest end of the city, Yu He Zhongzheng opened the curtain by the window and looked at the intertwined lights in the city.

Not far behind him, Li Shishi was sitting at his desk and finishing a composition at hand. The Huaxia Army has been extremely busy with work recently, and the land reform is imminent. The propaganda work is the main part of it. Most of her staff have been transferred to various working groups to help. Coupled with the diplomatic work she performed in the past, this time the Huaxia Army said that they would take over the land, and many gentry and landowners who were recruited by her in the past also came to her in turn, which made her want to break it in half by herself recently: Half of it is used for work, and the other half is used to complain to Ning Yi.

Yu Hezhong's visit is one of the things that she doesn't need to expend too much energy to deal with. Many times, she can hear some gossip from the other party that others dare not tell her.

Of course, compared to the restraint and lack of self-confidence of this friend at the beginning of the reunion, Yu Hezhong is now at the peak of his life after being a man of the hour in Chengdu for more than a year. Seeing and hearing is even more calm than ten years ago, he often talks about others, and always brings a lot of fashionable new words in his mouth. In Chengdu, he has a few regular confidante, It is said that his eloquence has also made many foreign ladies heartbroken.

In essence, he is now one of the most important relationship brokers in the city. This is because on the one hand, he is backed by Dai Mengwei and can support Yan Daolun, and on the other hand, he is an old acquaintance with Ning Yi and Li Shishi. In practice, make friends with Lin Qiu. In this way, no matter whether it is the old or new Confucianism, or the cultural cutting-edge of the Huaxia Army, as a middleman, he can contact and talk to him, and because of his nature as a tool man, he is not overly wary of him in any aspect, but makes people He gained a detached position in the whole environment and gained countless benefits.

"...People are panicking in the market now." Looking at those lights, Yu Hezhong said, "The old scholars outside all said that Ning Yi lost his mind and went crazy, and that's not what he did if he wanted to become an eternal hegemony."

"He never lost his mind." Hearing what Yu Hezhong said, Shi Shi laughed, "From killing the king back then, to attacking Xixia, then beating Jurchen, killing Lou Shi, and then going to Xiaocanghe From a few years to the last Southwest War, he just lost his mind every few years. Just get used to it."

"That's not the case. This time, everyone thinks it's a pity." Yu Hezhong said, "Look at the light outside, Master, do you think it is more beautiful than Bianliang back then? Look... Dongfeng puts thousands of flowers and trees at night. It blows more and falls, and the stars are like rain. BMW carved cars are fragrant all over the road. .”

"In terms of numbers..." Shi Shi stopped writing, "It has indeed exceeded."

"That's what it means. It's been two years in Chengdu, and it's been more than two hundred years in Bianliang...Recently, those old Confucians and new Confucians are in a very complicated mood. Master, do you know that the great Confucian He Rongchao said two days ago that he would go with his disciples and friends?" I wrote a letter, asking Mr. Ning to take back the order that the country seized people's land and said that it would hit the landlords. It sounds very beautiful for the sake of fairness, but when this country reaches the second and third, who will stop the country from being corrupted? He Rongchao has always been against it. The new culture is a bit like not eating Zhou Su, but Ning Yi wants to do this, he panicked, and he was afraid that he would not have a good life, and he would actually have to pay for it.”

"That's true." Shishi pursed her lips and smiled, "Recently, there have been a lot of people who have submitted papers to the top, and many of them didn't want to talk to us in the past, so they couldn't help but want to persuade them this time. This is Good thing, Mr. Ning said, this is an affirmation of our work in the past two years."

"Affirmation is certainly affirmative. The situation in Chengdu in the past two years, especially the efficiency of Gewuxue, those Confucian scholars said in private that Mr. Ning does have a vision. Even if he is unwilling to admit Ning Yi's credit, the Confucian scholars are not concerned about it now. It is also pushing Mozi, saying that Mozi will stand side by side with Confucius and Mencius, and become a saint of thousands of years... But they are really worried. You toss back to toss, don't toss Chengdu away..."

As Yu Hezhong said, he couldn't help laughing, and only after a while, he said: "Master, Ning Yi, there is really no fear at all? These old Confucians and new Confucians, in new words, it is a lifetime Those who work in education, I have read the recent propaganda, saying that the people after the enlightenment are to restrict the government, but... this is a beautiful word, gentlemen are virtuous, villains are virtuous, what do those rural farmers know? Teach them to understand , And it’s only a matter of understanding on a large scale, but look at those great Confucians, most of their children can’t be taught to understand, there are only a few who are successful, they are the ones who understand education best, so I’m afraid..."

Shi Shi stopped writing and fell silent for a moment, and Yu Hezhong also paused: "And... to put it bluntly, what do you need? Isn't it just such a peaceful and prosperous world? Shi Shi, I am naturally dull, but I have heard it recently. I also understand, those Confucian scholars, speaking against Ning Yi, because Ning Yi said that he wanted to destroy Confucianism, and he destroyed Confucianism because he wanted to develop Gewu, but Gewu has already developed. He is now strong and strong, how can those rockets develop in the future? , one day he will defeat the Jurchens, subdue the world, and spread out the grand scenery of Chengdu. I think he shouted to destroy Confucianism, and those Confucian scholars will really be able to bear it. Ning Yi has opinions on them, and if there are opinions, there are opinions, which can be compromised , but the land reform step, why bother? All those who divide the land, look at what has become..."

"And... to say something from the bottom of my heart, Shishi, I'm also afraid... the prosperity of Chengdu will suddenly disappear like Bianliang. It's already possible to make it here now, it's really very good..."

Having said that, the room became quiet, Shi Shi thought about it, wrote a few words on the paper, and then said with a smile: "Who are you helping to find out the news?"

"Yan Daolun, who else can it be?" Yu Hezhong didn't shy away, "According to your propaganda, if this matter is really achieved, it will of course be an unprecedented feat, just like the great unity of the world. Isn’t it an emperor through the ages? A saint of all ages? But if you can’t do it, you will die. You see, Ning Yi is so desperate that he scared the sour scholars who opposed him. Of course, others are also afraid... Yan Daolun and the others are busy recently The factory makes money, and he also hopes that the development of Chengdu will last forever. I think he has almost forgotten the mission given to him by Liu Gong. I am happy here, and I don’t think about the Central Plains.”

"...So what does Yan Daolun want to know?"

"He just wants to see how determined you can be here. Then, if the land is really collected, how will it be used in the future, and can everyone get a share of it... what else?"

Shishi thought about it.

"The aspect of land use is indeed the focus of this work, but as you know in Hezhong, this regulation must be changed according to the situation of land acquisition, so it is an idealized basic framework at present. If the land acquisition goes well, the next It will lead to the emergence of a large number of new plans, which land will be distributed to the villagers, which ones will be used for commercial development, and which access roads, all of which require an overall plan, so for the time being, I can’t think of anyone who can get the benefits. Of course, if he refers to land requisition What kind of loopholes can be exploited in the process, this matter, we also want to know now."

"What Yan Daolun mainly wants to find out is probably how determined he will be in land resumption this time, whether he will compromise, whether he can negotiate, whether he will kill people, and how many people will be killed. Let's put it this way...in Bianliang back then, anyone In the position of Ning Yi, I am afraid that he would not choose to kill the emperor, but he said he would kill him..."

"...Later, when we came to Xiaocanghe, the Xixia people invaded, and the Huaxia army was only ten thousand. As far as I know, Zuo Duanyou persuaded him, but he said to fight, so he still fought...Then the third time Jurchen went south, Lou Shi In order to be handsome, Xi Yin sent people to Xiao Canghe to persuade Ning Yi to surrender in name, but you also know... until the years of war in Xiao Cang River, including the Southwest War, the whole world had fallen, Xi Yin still sent People, said that everyone can talk, Ning Yi only said, you came to the southwest, I buried you..."

"Hezhong, the Huaxia Army's attitude is very gentle every time it is recuperating. Ning Yi does business, adhering to the attitude of being kind to others. Before these major decisions, the Huaxia Army has worked hard to develop and develop as Chengdu has in the past two years. Work hard to do business...Including the past two years in Chengdu, we opened the door to accept everyone. Ning Yi even let these great Confucian scholars speak casually in the newspaper. Many people opposed it, but finally ushered in great development...Now those Confucian scholars cherish Chengdu very much It seems that the development of Chengdu has something to do with them, and it seems that in the past two years of development in Chengdu, Ning Yi's heart is standing with them. In fact, it is not. Ning Yi's attitude has always been doing what he wants. What they do, these people occasionally understand him, occasionally they can't understand him, and when they can't understand, it's not that Ning Yi's attitude has changed in any way..."

"Actually, sometimes, I can't understand him. There have been arguments in the past..." Shishi smiled, "But over the years, many things have proved that he is right. Hezhong, you can tell Yan Daolun to let him see this In the operation of politics in the city, in August, the Congress officially passed a proposal to promote the implementation of the Four Peoples’ Thought. After the middle of the month, more than 600 representatives raised their hands and passed the basic ideas of land reform. The next seven departments held meetings one after another to set up the basic framework. , Through issuing orders, researching methods, and then starting to mobilize working groups from the middle and low levels, the Propaganda Department sorts out promotional materials, formulates publicity strategies, and conducts training after the working group meets. Ning Yi participated in every actual training..."

"In two months, tens of thousands of people worked, and three days ago the list of the first batch of 100 villages was announced. The first batch of people has been sent out. As for what will happen next, we have already There is a plan. The 6,000 people transferred from the Seventh Army have already completed the defense at each node. The person who is in charge of leading the army this time is Mrs. Liu from Ning Yi. Do you know what this means? She She has always been the person who supports Simin the most, why let her go?"

"Some of the big landlords who came to Chengdu during this period threatened to go up the mountain. We collected information here, but the army didn't move at all. They didn't take any measures and didn't take precautions. You can see what happens next. In this matter, the arrangement of the plan is very clear, anyone who dares to act, the Huaxia Army will act."

"The great Confucianism outside gave Ning Yi a booklet, hoping that he would take it back. Ning Yi thought it was funny. Do you know what he said about this? This is a... activated machine, thousands of people are this machine If someone stands in front of this machine, the machine will crush it. If someone wants to cause some problems inside the machine, someone will come to repair it and clean it up. Chengdu’s two years of prosperity have made people outside think that he is very gentle. , thinking that the Huaxia Army is a gentle... big market..."

"However, when it comes to deciding what to do, the Huaxia Army has been more determined than anyone or any force since more than ten years ago. If you want to use the enemy's words to describe it, the Huaxia Army can do things more than fair The party members are even more brutal. He Wen listened to the class in the southwest for a few years, and after he went out, he made a mess, but he still became a hero, but you must not forget that Ning Yi has been obsessed with thinking about ten things in this matter. For many years."

The words spoken by the person sitting behind the desk were soft, even if it was the word cruel, it was as light as telling a fairy tale to a child, with a strange tenderness. Yu Hezhong was stunned. For two years, in the gentle town of Chengdu, he suddenly thought that the Huaxia Army had become a kind-hearted man, and then he seemed to be rich, and wanted to put on his shoes and go ashore. group, but Shishi really reminded him at this moment that this is an existence that has done so many incredible things in adversity.

He thought for a while, and finally nodded.

"Thinking back more than ten years ago, when I met Liheng and talked with him, it really felt like a world away..."

Shishi thought for a while, and smiled: "As long as you want to see, you can see it in the future. Brother Yu, the Huaxia Army...have their own ideals, and they have been doing things in a down-to-earth manner over the years. Although the place is big recently, but Manpower is urgently needed, if you..."

At this point in her words, Yu Hezhong waved his hand: "Oh, I know, but... I have been dull all my life, Shishi, you... this... let's not talk about this, okay. In fact, in front of you, I I don’t want to talk nonsense anymore, tell me, if Liu Gong’s Central Plains battle goes well this time and Zou Xu is captured, will I be able to be promoted or something, that’s what I’m talking about right now…”

Shishi helped his forehead: "I don't understand this."

She said that she didn't understand, but in fact, she naturally understood He Zhong's distress. In the past year, as a middleman between Liu Guangshi and the Huaxia Army, he has enjoyed a lot of happiness in Chengdu, and he has never had a status. Underpinning results. Once the Central Plains War comes to an end, the relationship between the two parties may undergo new changes. As a man who is not very capable, he will naturally feel anxious.

But in fact, Shishi's plan for him already existed in the previous words, and he rejected it. As a friend, Shishi didn't say much anymore. As a middle-aged man in his forties, he has to bear the consequences of many choices.

She bowed her head to write, and the two chatted a few more words afterwards. Yu Hezhong staggered the topic: "You said Ning Yi...what is he busy with now? There should be endless meetings every day, right?"

Shishi raised his head and thought about it, then smiled: "It's true that I've been busy recently, but at this time today, it's hard to say, maybe I'm busy or not..."

"Huh? What kind of charade is this?"

"It's not a riddle either." She smiled, "The eldest lady is here, maybe she's shopping with her."

After that, he bowed his head and started writing the composition again.

Yu He Zhongchang took a breath, turned his head and looked out the window, the city was blurred in the night, he recalled all kinds of folk sayings about the eldest lady of the Ning family, especially among the many businessmen who have come into contact with him recently. One is terrible, and has more and more specific descriptions: "The head of the Su family, that is a powerful character, most people can't even see it..."

Looking back, there were countless worried words in his mouth for a while, but in the end, the desire to survive stopped his behavior.

"Then... Shall I take my leave first?"

"Go."

Under the light, Shi Shi shook the nib of the pen, and said with a smile, with her smiling movement, her bangs swayed in the shadow of the light, and was dyed yellow by the light, vaguely looking like the yellow-haired girl in the old building. However, time flies, and Yu Hezhong knows that they will never go back after all...

…

The flowing lights are reflected in the sky, as if they are shining with the stars in the sky. Just when Yu Hezhong walked out of the courtyard where Shi Shi lived, and felt uneasy about the arrival of a certain person, a group of people were looking at the night view of the city from a high place on a city wall at the northwest end of the city.

In the distance, the lights of the rail carriages outside the city are like a long line of ants queuing up bit by bit, which is amazing in the eyes. In the inner circle of the city, countless rays of light spread out, and the buildings on the waterway, the carriages on the road, and the carved beams and painted buildings in the courtyards are like exquisite models.

Su Tan'er, the eldest wife of the Ning family, who has been regarded as a terrifying existence in many rumors, is standing on the city wall in a simple plain white dress, watching all this with wide-eyed eyes. She has always been a woman from a water town in the south of the Yangtze River She has a melon-seeded face and a small frame. She is taller than the average Jiangnan girl, but she is softer than the northerners. Although she has experienced many things over the years that make her appear graceful and calm in front of most people, but in the face of Ning When he was resolute, he still had a relatively lively and outgoing side.

"It's already more beautiful than Jiang Ning..."

She stood by the city wall, looking into the distance and sighing.

After the Huaxia Army harvested the Chengdu Plain, this was the second time she came to Chengdu for sightseeing. Compared with the last time, everything has changed drastically.

Ning Yi handed her a telescope from the side.

"It's even more beautiful than Bianliang! Look over there, the rail carriage, I told you, haven't you seen it? In the future, the rails and carriages will be replaced with iron, which will scare you country folks."

Tan'er laughed: "Every time Xi'er goes home, he always tells me about going to Datong Chengdu, what's so unusual? By the way, last time he went back, he told me about you stealing his roast chicken ..."

"Ah... Rebel."

"You stole his food and beat him back."

"Okay, let's not talk about the unpleasant things about this Nizi." Ning Yi patted her on the shoulder, and naturally changed the subject, "I'll show you another Nizi's feat."

"What?"

"Qian Laoba's group sent back the news of the Fair Party from Jiangning. The brigade moved slowly, but they sent a few reports first, with a few pieces of newsprint in between. I read it twice, but I still don't understand it. , It was only after I saw it in the middle of the night yesterday that I slowly understood it. Every line between the lines is a merciless mockery of me."

As Ning Yi said, he took out a few folded small newspapers from his pocket, and Tan'er took them, and asked people to move the lantern closer and read it under the light.

"This... what, the martial arts tournament, the masters of the evil faction... these are all rewards, this five-foot demon or something... well, this nickname is very interesting. When people first hear it, they think it is a shameless demon. Think about it carefully Think one, two, three, four, five, haha...is there anything wrong with that?"

Tan'er held up the newsprint and held it against the light to see if there was any interlayer.

"well…"

Ning Yi watched her movements and sighed.

After a while, I couldn't help but smile, and then sighed again.

"Creating... evil... ah..."
