Lin Yi was still sitting leisurely on the dusty wicker chair he found randomly, without wiping off the dust that had accumulated for many years. But the moment the dust fell into his eyes, he took a serious look at it for the first time.
Come to a small courtyard.
He came to Jinyang very few times, and he also searched for some impressions in his ignorant memory. However, in such a remote courtyard, and in such a not-so-large agency, naturally he would not recall the slightest connection, and he still
Some indescribable descriptions can be guessed.
This is a yard that no one has lived in for many years. This is a yard that no one has dared to rent for many years!
So what kind of courtyard is this?
His gaze was very soft, wandering leisurely in the courtyard. The courtyard was not big, it was a flat courtyard about two feet long and wide. The pattering of autumn rain falling in the courtyard looked particularly crisp, and the stone slabs piled with thick moss had already rotted.
All of them showed the embarrassment that this yard was cleaned but no one lived in it. Lin Yi turned his attention to the young man sitting next to him. His beard and slightly childish face were particularly cheerful.
"I haven't seen you for many years, but you still know my character and I have such a beautiful beard. It's such a pleasant city." Lin Yi stared at the young man's beard. He kept enduring the urge in his bones to tease the young man in front of him.
However, he still couldn't suppress his desire and let it be released to his heart's content.
The young man laughed twice along with Lin Yi's smile, and then he couldn't laugh anymore: "I just said that my surname should not be Hu, and I also named myself Hu Chang. Doesn't this increase the power of the beard hidden under the chin?
"
This was a self-mockery, but Lin Yi surprisingly did not laugh. Instead, there were layers of ripples in his plain eyes. It seemed that the position of the wicker chair was a little too high, and the hem fell to the ground and extended out, stained by the raindrops falling from the eaves.
, he frowned and pinched the wet hem tightly, raised his hand and twisted it hard, and the clear water droplets were expelled from the hem.
It looks funny, looks pitiful, and even more cold and cold.
Hu Chang stared at Lin Yi's movements, and he realized that this smart young man was still as smart as before, but he was not as tolerant as before. And his own words were a bit too much. As for where he was too much, he didn't know.
, but he always understands his mistakes and admits them immediately.
"My fault!"
Lin Yi reluctantly smiled and shook his head, and threw the hem of his clothes to the ground. The hem of his clothes, which was already wet, immediately formed a dark trace on the ground. The gray color of the slate disappeared, and what was left behind was always something new and inexplicable.
Something new again.
"There is nothing wrong with you, it's just that I couldn't react. Many years have passed, and my habit of losing my temper has still not been corrected, but no one is willing to indulge my temper anymore..."
Looking at the sky outside, gloomy dark clouds are drifting over, and the white dark clouds are forced to accumulate mist for several months to form raindrops that nourish all things, but they are still cursed by those who do not understand this kind of fate.
"There's nothing to say, don't worry about these details." Hu Chang was particularly embarrassed at this moment. He coughed twice, trying to bring Lin Yi back to his thoughts: "How have you been in Yuguan these years? I haven't seen you for several years. If not
I’m afraid I don’t even know where you are because of your letter from a few months ago?”
Maybe it was useful. Lin Yi's memories gradually faded away, leaving only the good times. He organized his thoughts and said slowly: "In the past few years, I was not in Yuguan, but in my hometown. Only in the past two years,
In order to seek an opportunity and observe Mobei, I stayed in Yuguan for two years. It was pretty good. The character of the border army was similar to that of the Northern Army many years ago."
"Hey!" Hearing this, Hu Chang straightened his clothes. Only then did Lin Yi realize that the robes Hu Chang was wearing were exactly what the sergeants were wearing when they entered the city. They were just different but had the same purpose, and there were similarities.
He thought carefully that based on Hu Chang's strength and means, it should be a matter of course that he had gained a better position over the years. However, he still felt a little unhappy.
"The Northern Army is indeed not the Northern Army it was back then, and Hebei Road is no longer the Hebei Road it used to be. What should we old people do?" Hu Chang said, seemingly melancholy, but his eyes kept falling on Lin Yi.
Lin Yi naturally understood Hu Chang's thoughts, but he was not the eldest brother, nor did he have the magnificent will of the eldest brother, let alone the pressure of the world's heavy burden.
He shook his head naturally and smoothly, indicating that he had no idea. He stared at the autumn rain outside, which was getting heavier and heavier. Everyone said that the autumn rain was continuous, but the current situation was like a downpour, extremely violent, and shocking and oppressive.
Feeling. Hu Chang didn't care about Lin Yi's rejection. Originally, his plan did not intend to succeed in one go, just like that person... didn't do the same.
Lin Yi didn't know what Hu Chang was thinking, and Hu Chang naturally didn't know what Lin Yi was thinking. But the two of them had the same thought, that is, it was time to clean up the filth and bloodstains in Jinyang for many years.
"I can give you any information, but you can only do it yourself. After all, there are still many old people under my command, and I can't implicate them." Hu Chang's expression finally became serious, and his words were full of the qualities that a Northern Army general should have.
Plan strategies.
Lin Yi also immediately became solemn and nodded: "Of course I understand what you said, so I didn't plan to find you this time. But when I first arrived in Jinyang, there was no umbrella to protect me from the wind and rain, let alone walking in the dark.
That black night uniform will inevitably lead to confusion."
Hu Chang nodded with pleasure. He had absolute trust in the courage and strength of the young man in front of him. He was about to leave, but suddenly turned back and said: "There is a general manager from Hebei Province. It is said that he was once a high-level person in the empire. If you can get close to him,
You should be able to get what you want. Even if it is recommended by the Admission Palace, or even let you enter the Academy directly, it should not be a problem!"
Looking at Hu Chang who walked out of the eaves and let the heavy raindrops fall on his stiff and dirty black hair, Lin Yi slowly stood up and put the one-piece raincoat sitting behind the wicker chair on himself.
He put on the attached black rain hat and walked into the rain curtain.
What the friend said was right, but he really didn't want to do it.
It's not that he doesn't want to hurt others, it's that he can't hurt others. Before the storm in front of him has stopped, he is forced to walk into the storm. In his memory, there are many classic quotations from his eldest brother. Even if he doesn't like reading, he can read them all.
Remember, this does not depend on intelligence, nor does it depend on the liking of these classic quotations, but on the respect and admiration for the elder brother.
The empire is very cold, and the cold Lin Yi has been a careless person since he appeared.
