On the night of Laba, the new wind is thin, and the breath turns into frost.

On the street, however, there was steaming heat, gongs and drums beating sonorously, stilt walkers, yangko dancers, dragon and lion dancers appeared in turn, and there was even a big pot set up by the government outside the colorful shed, which was boiling thick The Laba porridge, paired with soy sorghum produced outside Guanwai, smells very fragrant.

Most of the best restaurants facing the street are reserved by local wealthy households. Pei Jin and Tong chose a private room on the corner in a low-key way. Fortunately, there is a window on the fence, and there is no need to order Laba porridge.

"Well, the sweet ones are better than the salty ones." Pei Jin, a veteran sweet lover, commented slowly after taking a bite.

His eyesight was not good, so his hearing became extremely sharp. His ears were filled with the lively and colorful dramas downstairs, many of which had bold and hot lyrics.

"Your operas are all like this...returning to the basics?"

At the same time, he smiled secretly, saying that you have not seen the unimproved Errenzhuan in later generations, but when it comes to this, he himself has not seen it much. After all, he is a child who grew up in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. , I really can't stand such an unpretentious charm.

"Cat winter is too long, I have nothing to do, I can only entertain myself."

"Just by flirting?" Pei Jin said with a smile, stood up and walked to the window.

Pushing open a window, the cold wind poured straight into his nose, he said to Tong Ze, "Can you see clearly, tell me about it."

Tong knew that what he cared about was the officials in the colorful shed and the fake Pei Jin, so he took a closer look and said, "The substitute of the third master is chatting with a man in his 40s. The person who came here even handed over a cigarette bag, um, what will the third master know, it seems that everyone here has found out clearly."

After he finished speaking, he described everyone's clothes again. After hearing this, Pei Jin took two steps towards the shelter, nodded and said, "The man should be called Zhang Qian. He was newly transferred to Ning'an, so you don't know him."

During the movement, he didn't seem to pay much attention, he almost bumped into the stove beside him by accident, but the same man hastily stretched out his hand and pulled him towards him, the action was so hasty, their bodies inevitably collided with each other place.

Pei Jin's expression was not stiff, but his body was obviously unnatural, and his forearm muscles tensed up instantly.

At the same time, he felt it, sighed slightly in his heart, and had no choice but to let go, when suddenly he heard a firecracker exploding on the ground.

The movement was so huge that Pei Jin was excited instinctively, shaking his body slightly.

At the same time, he hurriedly supported his elbow, and this time they got closer together, almost showing a cheek-to-cheek posture. If someone pushes the door and sees this scene, they will probably take it for granted that the relationship between the two is close. There is some kind of inexplicable ambiguity between them.

Not only can't tell clearly, but vaguely, it seems that a period of charm has been born.

Pei Jin's gentle breath fell on Tongze's face, and the sweet taste of Laba porridge in his mouth made Tongze flock to him for a moment, so the nose and cheeks of the two caught off guard and touched each other lightly.

The tip of Pei Jin's nose was cold, but at the same time, he felt as if he had been rubbed twice by a small animal shrunk in the cold wind. It still had a three-pointed cuteness, but before he could taste it enough, he saw the small animal Taking a breath, he quickly took a few steps back.

When Pei Jin touched it, he didn't expect to find something new—this man still had a beard, and it was wiped between his upper lip and nose, and a few stubbles were scattered on his chin.

For beards, Mr. Pei does not have a special soft spot. Whether this thing looks good or not depends on whose face it is born on.

He thought to himself, he seemed to be unable to remember exactly how old this next life was, but Li Mingxiu might not be willing to tell the truth, he was probably lying to him, maybe he was just looking for someone reliable and old enough to take care of him. people?

Thinking of this, Mr. Pei's sympathy, which had never been much, suddenly overflowed.It's not easy for this man to take care of himself, and there is no chance for him to be promoted and make a fortune right now. I remember that there is no one in his family, and this man who can't get a wife at this age is either because he is ugly or... just because he likes men. It's a pity Luo Hua intends to be ruthless, and she is going to disappoint others' affection after all.

If you don't go back and find a suitable person for him, at least it can be regarded as a reward for getting acquainted.

The other party seized the opportunity, but was staring at Pei Jin to his heart's content. At this moment, he couldn't guess what Pei Jin was thinking, but felt that the lines of his face were getting softer and softer, and he looked very cute at the mercy of others. The eyelashes drooped, as if thinking about something, or brewing some gentle words.

Do you feel familiar?Maybe he is still thinking about the similarities between himself and the people in his memory, maybe those two images will eventually overlap gradually...

Just as Tong Ze started to imagine, looking forward to Pei Jin's mental activities, he suddenly heard the other party say, "To be honest, you must be forty this year, right?"

Pei Jin rubbed his nose while asking, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, showing a delicate and stylish arc.

Similarly, "..."

Still too naive!Face to face with this kind of person is completely unworthy of imagination!At the same time, I can't help but deeply suspect that Pei Jin fell in love with him only because of his face.

The dumbfounded person rolled his eyes and said angrily, "It's early, I'm just eight years younger than the third master."

The eight-year-old difference is exactly the "gap" that some people never forget, like an insurmountable blade, and it has become an unspeakable regret that Pei Jin entangles in his heart.

Since he had cared about it before, hearing this number at first glance should at least trigger a tinge of sensitivity and suspicion.

It's a pity that just at this time, a long-formed Yangko team just turned to the bottom of the restaurant, and the gongs and drums were deafening, and the same sentence was completely involved in the noise.

Pei Jin didn't hear anything.

But his complexion changed, his eyes froze for an instant, and then the two brow peaks suddenly gathered together.

"Third Master, go back and sit down." Tong Ze didn't see the clue, and whispered in his ear, "It's too noisy by the window."

Pei Jin shook his head, thinking that he would not be able to make intimate gestures, so he raised his voice and shouted, "I have a hunch, I'm afraid something will happen."

About Pei Dashuai's dog-like sensitive premonition, I have seen it before, and I have been convinced. Immediately, my heart skipped a beat and I subconsciously looked downstairs.

So he could see clearly that first a blaze shot down from the sky, and it exploded in the air. Sparks splashed and landed in the winding Yangko team. Seeing that there were rockets in all directions to the west, they shot towards the crowded place.

The people who watched the excitement exploded, and the crowd rushed to the crowd for a while, and those who walked on stilts were tripped to the ground by those who were twisting Yangko. In the blink of an eye, it became a mess of Laba porridge, but the team in front did not know what happened, and the gongs and drums were happily The point is still the same, and there is a burst of joy, and the scene looks more and more weird and unspeakable.

"Tell the Qian guards to evacuate the crowd and make sure to reduce the stampede casualties."

Pei Jin made a decisive decision, and this time he didn't care whether to stick to his ears or not, so he quickly came over and warned.

Tong Ze hurriedly turned around and went out to explain, and then ran back quickly, paying attention to the crowd first, and then shifted his gaze to the color booth.

Pei Jin asked with a tacit understanding at this moment, "The gang of officials, did they withdraw or someone took the opportunity to snipe?"

The same stared at him, frowned and said, "I didn't retreat, that Zhang Qian was shot by an arrow... well, it was on his left shoulder, so there shouldn't be any danger to his life."

And the fake Pei Jin is surrounded by two or three personal guards, but manpower is limited, and more personal guards are evacuating the people according to Pei Jin's order, and a group of local government soldiers are also trying to step up the transfer of the officials.

Pei Jin frowned, and whispered to himself, "Attacking Zhang Qian...is this going to be a trick?"

When the voice fell, the sound of gongs and drums stopped abruptly, and the shouts were scattered all over the place. A young man in the crowd stood up staggeringly, holding a piece of broken paper in his hand, and shouted as if he had discovered a new world, "Yes! Bandits, they, they are coming for Lord Hou."

Someone heard it, and someone was still focused on running around.

After being reminded like this, someone nearby soon noticed that the bandit's arrow was tied with aluminum foil to avoid fire, and it was written: Respectfully welcome Cheng Enhou, the gift will be presented later.

The two people in the private room couldn't see the content on the paper, so they could guess a thing or two based on their imagination.

At the same time, he secretly thought in shock, the bandits openly provoked and made a big scene of killing in front of the common people, is this going to force Pei Jin to suppress the bandits?But the troops that Pei Jin can use... Turning his gaze downstairs, he looked at the group of newly recruited soldiers from Ning'an Mansion, each and every one of them had become useless snacks.

Seeing that the guards are all maintaining order, there are not many people hiding near the private room, and the same person is afraid of another accident, so he hurriedly suggested, "The third master should withdraw, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time."

Pei Jinning kept her brows silent, as if she was concentrating on listening to something, when suddenly a light flashed in her eyes, "There is someone on the roof opposite."

Hearing the same words, he hugged him tightly first, and brought him behind him, and when he looked closely, he saw a man in black lying on the eaves, his whole body blending into the night, if it wasn't for Pei Jin Reminder, he will never notice.

The pulling action just now was too violent, and even Pei Jin was staggered, but he didn't say a word, and he didn't intend to hide behind Tongze. hand.

However, just as he was about to raise his arm, he suddenly stopped, a subtle embarrassment crossed his face, then his arm dropped, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed down, and he didn't move for a long time.

Seeing it in the same eyes, the heart ached for a second, but Pei Jin put away the flash of loneliness and asked quickly, "Can you use a gun?"

meeting!And marksmanship is much better than ever.

In the blink of an eye, a thought flashed through his mind. If he showed his skills, it might bring back Pei Jin's memories. Some habits have always existed, and it would not be difficult for Pei Jin to detect them as keenly. He didn't expect to be recognized immediately. out, but can be considered a similarity is a step forward.

However, after thinking about it again, he suddenly changed his mind.

At the same time, he moved to the side, stood behind Pei Jin, raised his arm, and held his hand on the trigger, which was also on the back of Pei Jin's warm hand.

"The third master can do it. I'll tell you the position, and you aim."

Pei Jin's long eyebrows frowned slightly, and for some reason a familiar feeling came over his face, probably in his dazed effort, he didn't have time to put down his arm, and he didn't bother to leave the trigger with his finger.

"He is now in the direction of two o'clock, and a little bit higher. Try it. He doesn't have a weapon in his hand. He should be waiting for the crowd to disperse so he can escape."

Pei Jin hummed, this experience is really fresh, he couldn't help thinking that a long time ago, it was also a dark night, a mass of pitch-black vision, the world at that time was completely black, it should be worse than what he can feel now , At that time, he put his life in the same hands, what kind of state of mind did the person who cannot see complete that shooting?

From that time on, did Tong Ze have the idea of ​​protecting him with all his strength and unswerving determination?

If he has walked the same path and felt the same feeling, will the distance between each other be one step closer, even if heaven and man are separated, that person seems to be by his side at this moment.

With a bang, fine smoke and dust ignited from the muzzle of the gun, but the sound of the gun was completely drowned out by the shouts of the crowd, and it just sounded like a not-so-clear firecracker.

Seeing the man in black rolling down from the eaves, he smiled at the same time. He couldn't help supporting Pei Jin's shoulders, "The third master is a master of marksmanship, and he hit it with one blow."

Pei Jin was shaken and taken twice by him, and he thought it would be impossible, the voice sounded so excited that he was out of tune, this person worshiped him too much, he retreated to the side calmly, avoiding the two hands With the shackles on his body, he only asked lightly, "Are you dead?"

The big head is down, even if you don't die, you will be smashed, but why bother to entangle how to die at this moment, the same is still ecstatic, nodding with a smile, "The third master hit, um, it should be the head, I can't do it if the light is bad." I can't see clearly."

"Anyway, it's amazing. The third master can even know who's on the other side. It's much better than me, who is blind."

Pei Jin didn't shy away from blind words, but he felt a little grumpy about this boast, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "It's more strange than rare."

"It's nothing." He put away his gun and waved his hand casually, "It's not too dark outside because the lights are bright, and that person is still still. I once saw a person who just lost his sight and didn't even have time to adapt. Hit a moving target and kill him with one shot, that's..."

Suddenly, Pei Jin stopped talking and did not continue, but he couldn't see the people around him, and he was staring at him closely at this time, his eyes were full of nostalgia.

At the same time, there seemed to be a breath hanging in his chest, and he was so cold that he was so involved in that sentence. He opened his mouth and was about to ask again, but saw the door was pushed open, and a personal guard walked in and said, "The crowd has been arrested. Get it under control, please go downstairs and go back to the mansion first."

"Caught him?" Pei Jin asked.

The personal guard lowered his head, "It's hard to catch the thieves scattered in the crowd for a while, and the subordinates are negligent, please punish the third master."

Pei Jin didn't criticize him harshly, he breathed a sigh of relief, raised his legs and walked out, while the same man followed behind, his sleeves were caught by the guard, and he whispered in his ear, "There is a man named Gao Yunlang, who said It's your old acquaintance, waiting downstairs. Hurry up, we will escort the third master back first. "

Gao Yunlang?At the same time, he had an intuition that the sudden appearance of this person should be because he wanted to tell him about today's inside story, he raised his eyebrows, and he nodded silently to the guard.
