Chapter 17 Another side

Yan Yan followed quietly all the way, and finally came to a two-story building.

There are two teams of people guarding the door of the building, and there is another person waiting at the door with his head down. Two shadows are projected in front of a window on the second floor, one tall, one short, one fat and one thin.

Yi Yan first familiarized himself with the surrounding layout, and soon focused most of his eyes on the man standing alone at the door, waiting for someone.

The man was not tall, had a slender build, and was wearing gray-blue clothes. Because the man's head was slightly drooped, Yi Yan couldn't see clearly what he looked like, but it gave her a very strange feeling.

The man had his hands in his sleeves and his head slightly lowered, which should be a usual posture, at least for a servant trained by a large family. He is not tall, and overall gives off a slender and frail appearance. He looks like a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old.

Child, but her chest didn't rise and fall at all, not at all like the graceful figure of a girl.

Yi Yan frowned slightly, he is neither male nor female, who is this person?

Women disguised as men?

Corseted?

After Yu Yan walked around the small building, he took advantage of the gap between patrols and jumped up to the roof. When he fell, there was only a slight sound of the tiles colliding with each other, but it was negligible and no one noticed.

Yi Yan recalled where he saw the figure, found a place not too far away and started to lift the tiles lightly.

After uncovering two tiles in succession, the key scenery under the tiles is still covered.

Yi Yan raised his eyebrows when he saw this, secretly thinking that this was indeed the case, and the story in the storybook was not believable.

The stories in the storybooks often include stories about gentlemen on beams, flower-picking thieves, heroes saving beauties, eavesdropping and peeping, etc. Most of these stories are related to the roof, especially the ones with top-down views.

, often you can see the indoor environmental conditions by removing the tiles. She always finds it strange when reading it, and feels that this description of "removing the tiles to see the light" does not conform to the characteristics of the architecture.

On the roof of a building, the beams and suspended ceilings are first put up, then straw mats and thatches are put up, and finally the tiles are covered. How can it be possible to "uncover the tiles and see the light"? Although she has always been skeptical about this, she

There is no one-shot kill, what if someone breaks the rules and directly covers the tiles when building a house?

Well, it's the first time today that I uncovered the tiles. As expected, I saw the thatch under the tiles but no indoor scenery. But I don't know whether I should feel sad because the bandits followed common sense too much, or whether I should feel happy because they were able to verify a plot in the storybook.

Yi Yan started racing in her confused mind, and suddenly she heard a noise in the distance. She followed the sound and looked intently, and saw black smoke rising into the clouds, and waves of firelight surging in all directions.

A fire broke out.

The bandits who heard the sound and saw the situation all rushed over there.

Such a big fire cannot be set by the bandits themselves.

Yi Yan withdrew her gaze, looked down at the thatch under the tiles again, bit her lip, and suddenly smiled, a small amount of fire monsters was not enough, so she should not add more!

Yi Yan started to peel off the tiles smoothly, with light and fast movements. After peeling off a small area, he moved to another area and continued to peel off. After a while, the roof of the small building was like a shrew who had her hair cut out in a fight, and several large pieces were exposed.

Thatch under the tiles.

Ember took out the fire stick he carried with him and ignited the thatch. His eyes were calm and calm, and his movements were unhesitating and skillful.

Although the bandits did not follow the script when building the village, the thatch followed the usual rules!

It is flammable.

"Do you smell anything?"

"What does it smell like?"

"It smells like smoke."

"That should be coming from over there." Someone pointed to the distance, "There's a fire over there. We don't need to worry about it. Our duty is to guard this place."

"Um."

After a while,

"Why do I feel like the smell of cigarette smoke is getting louder and louder?"

"It must be that the fire is getting bigger over there!"

"But it doesn't smell like it to me. It seems to be very close to us." The man raised his head and sniffed vigorously, "It seems to be floating down from above."

"This is a two-story building. The building is fine. How could it be... on fire from above?"

"Quickly put out the fire!"

"Save the boss first!"

It's a busy place again.

Yu Jin originally wanted to eavesdrop on the information about the integration of these "unconventional" bandits, and then go to the warehouse they valued. She might as well make some noise on Zhan Shuyun's side first, and her plan would naturally work.

It doesn't work, but if it doesn't work, it won't work. It's just a temporary thing, and some small changes won't hinder anything.

Of course, it is a temporary rise. What should I do at this time that is not a temporary rise?

If one small building is burned, it will be burned if two or three buildings are burned, so let’s burn them all the way!

Zhan Shuyun thought so too.

Burning one place is burning. If the goal of burning one place is too obvious, then burn a few more places!

Go back in time for a moment.

Zhan Shuyun listened to the woman telling a long, long story. The protagonist of the story went from being happy to falling to the end of the world in just a few years. The "culprit" that caused all this happened sixteen years ago.

Qin'an chaos.

In her story, the Qin'an Rebellion was not a rebellion by traitors, but a forced one who risked his life to survive in order to find a way out... The time is the same, the place is the same, the characters are the same, the story is still the same, but with

The stories in the historical records and in the minds of the people are different - the original intentions are different.

"The eunuchs are in power, but the prince is incompetent. The emperor listens to the slanderous words of villains. Prince Gong tries to uphold justice but is ignored by greed. The eunuch moves to high places and wants to use the emperor's hand to kill Prince Gong. The country is in danger."

The original intention is different. The world thinks that the Qin'an Rebellion is a rebellion by King Gong, which is all due to King Gong's greed for power and his desire to ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Plan; while the Qin'an Rebellion in the woman's mouth is a helpless move by King Gong to protect himself and the country.

It was an expedient and a helpless move to prevent the world from falling into the hands of eunuchs.

The original intentions were slightly different, but the characterization of the Qin'an Rebellion was completely different.

"I know the young master doesn't believe it," the woman said, "Actually, it's pointless to discuss right or wrong now, because the result is determined."

"So what do you want me to do when you tell me this?"

The woman said: "Although it doesn't make any sense, I think I should tell people about the other side of chaos. Even if you don't believe it, I will still say it... I want you to burn this place down when you go out."

Zhan Shuyun: "I'm afraid this is a bit difficult. There is dirt everywhere here and there is nothing that can ignite."

The woman smiled and shook her head, "I can be set on fire." She looked at Zhan Shuyun and smiled, "Sir, I have been imprisoned here for many years. I have been here since the Qin'an Rebellion.

I can't get out, and others can't get in. Life is worse than death if I don't see the light of day... These bandits wanted to get something from me, and I said I couldn't give it to them, so they kept me locked up, day after day.

It's not that I haven't thought about dying, but I'm still unwilling to do so. I'm not willing to leave without leaving anything behind, and I'm not willing to let the truth be buried. Fortunately, I waited until you were here."

"I should have died long ago, but I just held on with my breath."

"I have a poem I want to tell you here. Master, please remember it."

"The loess is cracked and covered with white snow, and it is endless and blocks the human habitation."

"If one day, the young master sees a girl named Honglian, please read this poem to her and tell her that I will bless her."

The woman carefully took out a white jade hairpin from her arms. The color of the white jade was very good, and a lifelike blooming lotus was carved at the end. The hairpin's body was coiled with complicated patterns, which was extremely exquisite. However, it had been broken into two parts, and the fracture was

Smooth but not sharp, it must be rubbed all the time.

"There is also this hairpin. I originally wanted to give it to her when she was old enough, but there was no chance."

The woman touched the hairpin for the last time and handed it to Zhan Shuyun.

"Burn me."
