Dongdu Pavilion Case Record

wedge

The sound of the city gate being breached was deafening.

The huge wooden stake hit the iron gate, one blow, another blow...

He knew that he had lost his eldest son forever, the eldest son who had been known as Chiwu King since he was a child, who was superb in martial arts and ambitious.

He had a chance to prevent this from happening, but when he saw the burning fire in his eldest son's eyes, outlining a prosperous world in front of him, he was shaken.He couldn't bear to extinguish the flame in the eldest son's eyes, he even hoped that what the eldest son said was right, and hoped that the flame would sweep this land again.

however……

Lost, or lost.

"Father! Daddy!" His youngest son ran out. The seven or eight-year-old child said with panic, "Dad, they said that brother was killed!"

He slowly patted the young son's head. He has been pissed off since he was a child, and he is very cute.

"Father, I'm going to find my elder brother!" The youngest son said eagerly while pulling him.

There is a deafening sound of enemy troops entering the city, it's over, it's over...

The boy ran to the door.

"Come back!" he yelled, pulling the youngest son back. The child was struggling hard, but he took out a black object from his sleeve and forced it into the child's mouth. The child gradually lost consciousness...

He himself is walking towards his own destiny step by step...

----------------------

Wen Tao was awakened by the sound of a wind chime, the wind chime was like spring water in a mountain stream, ding ding dong dong, different rhythms intertwined, like the sound of heaven.Wen Tao opened his eyes slightly, and saw that it was a dark and quaint room, the windows were slightly opened, and the breeze was blowing in, and a wooden wind chime was hanging, making a lingling sound.

wooden?Wen Tao's first focus was on the material of the wind chimes.The sound was wrong, this thought flashed in his mind, he got off the bed, was looking at the wooden wind chime, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.Wen Tao held the wind chime and opened the door, it was Tang Wuyi.

"Hahaha, I knew you liked this." Holding the food plate, Tang Wuyi looked at Wen Tao, who had loose hair and bare feet, only wearing a plain jacket, holding a wind chime, and the wind chime was still ringing. , his skin is as white as snow, and his light-colored eyes look at him. They are really spotless, as if they came from a paradise.

"Tang Yue, this wind chime is made of wood, but the sound is very clear." Wen Tao said.

Tang Wuyi smiled and said: "It came from the Western Regions. This wind chime is made of wood, but there are eight silver tubes inside. When the hammer touches the silver tube, it resonates in the wooden wind chime. Therefore, its timbre is different from ordinary wind chimes, like the sound of nature."

Wen Tao came to a sudden, studied the wind chime in his hand for a long while, and suddenly realized that some important questions had been missed.

"Tang Yue, where are we now?"

Tang Wuyi raised his eyebrows and said, "You guess?"

Wen Tao walked to the window, and saw that it was a rather spacious courtyard with a simple structure, and a loquat tree in the courtyard was especially lush.As far as the eye can see, the Lifang outside the courtyard is quite like a city. Pedestrians come and go, but it is far away, so the noise will not be transmitted, and this place is a quiet place amidst the noise.

Wen Tao smiled brightly and said, "Tang Yue, is this the Dongdu Pavilion in Luoyang?"

The corner of Tang Wuyi's mouth curled up: "A certain person fell into a drowsy sleep after drinking, and I didn't even know he was abducted to Dongdu Pavilion."

Wen Tao was in a good mood, so he didn't argue with him, sat down obediently, took the tray, and saw a bowl of clear porridge and some refreshing side dishes on it.

"You drank wine last night, so you should eat lightly this morning." Tang Wuyi said.

Wen Tao was as good as he was, and said while eating: "Tang Yue, this is where you usually stay? Why does it seem that there is no one there?"

Tang Wuyi said: "This is the backyard. In the front yard, there are knives and writers who specialize in accepting difficult martial arts cases, and they will be filed and recorded after solving the cases. There is also Dongdu Pavilion Book Hall, which houses more than a dozen disciples of Dongdu Pavilion. Some of them don't need me personally. If you go to a case, you will send them out. Mr. Pu will teach them classics and history on weekdays, and I will guide them in martial arts and torture methods. Don’t go to the torture hall at the end. It is a special execution place. Below the torture hall is a A dungeon, where the dead are imprisoned in the dungeon.”

Wen Tao said: "Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. Tang Yue, you are quite comfortable as the pavilion master."

"Why, tempted? How about you stay?" Tang Wuyi tentatively asked.

Wen Tao smiled but did not answer, and asked after a while, "How is General Tang?"

"Already awake, His Majesty has come to visit, and it will be good to raise him in Ziwei Palace for a while." Tang Wuyi said, "I will go to Ziwei Palace to visit my elder brother in person in two days and apologize to him."

Tang Wuyi got up and took Wen Tao to stroll around Dongdu Pavilion. When he walked to the front yard study hall, he saw more than a dozen Dongdu Pavilion disciples wearing black robes with red bird pattern reading scriptures, all of them had clear eyes and loud voices.

"Tang Yue, where did you find these children?" Wen Tao asked.

"Most of them come from martial arts. If they are from aristocratic families, they can take the imperial examination if they study literature, and can enter the magic strategy army if they practice martial arts."

"Then you..." Wen Tao recalled Tang Wuyi's expression when he saw Tang Jingxiao's military uniform coming in Shaolin, and thought that if possible, he would also be willing to be a general on the battlefield. He never asked about Tang Wuyi's life experience, All they knew was that he was Tang You's adopted son and Tang Jingxiao's adopted brother, but they knew nothing about the twists and turns.

Tang Wuyi said: "According to what my adoptive father said, he adopted me on the battlefield when he was fighting everywhere in the early years. Both my parents died and I had no relatives and no one to rely on. Even though he said so, I don't have the slightest impression. My memory is from The Tiance camp at the foot of Beiman Mountain started. My adoptive father treated me as if I were my own son. When I was a teenager, I wanted to be a general of Tiance. Later, when I learned that non-family members were not allowed to join Tiance, I was sad for a long time. He paused, his eyes seemed to be a bit lonely, but he quickly recovered his smile and said, "However, my adoptive father planned to hand over Dongdu Pavilion to me. Dongdu Pavilion has a long history and is a link between martial arts and court The important organization of my foster father has really thought deeply about me..."

A gust of wind blows, and the sound of wind chimes in Wentao's room can be heard from a distance, and the sun casts mottled shadows under the pipa tree.Wen Tao listened quietly to Tang Wuyi's past, and time seemed to stand still at this moment.

"Wuyi, Master Wen." The visitor bowed to the two of them. It was Pu Qiming who had just finished his morning class.

I saw that Pu Qiming's clothes were simple, and his whole person had a noble and aloof air.

Tang Wuyi and Wen Tao replied: "Mr. Pu." The two followed Pu Qiming to his study, and saw a large handful of Eryue Lan on Nuo Da's desk.Er Yuelan is a very common plant, light purple, blooming brilliantly.Tang Wuyi remembered that at this time of year, Mr. Pu always put a handful of Er Yue Lan on the table.

Tang Wuyi smiled and said: "Mr. Pu, the peonies in Luoyang are blooming just right. I'll have someone send some in next time. It's just right for you to put on your desk."

"No need." Pu Qiming said, "This flower is very good. The peony is too luxurious, and it doesn't match my study."

Tang Wuyi knew Pu Qiming's temperament, so he didn't insist.Although he is the pavilion master here, he has to respect Pu Qiming for everything on weekdays.Pu Qiming looked at Wen Tao and said, "Is Daoist Wen going to live here for a long time?"

Although it was an extremely common question, Wen Tao felt his ears were red. Is he going to stay in Dongdu Pavilion for a long time this time? In what name?

Tang Wuyi hurriedly said: "You can stay as long as you want, and we will investigate the case together." He raised his eyebrows at him, with a smile in his eyes.

Well, I have made up my mind to follow Tang Yue.Wen Tao thought to himself, traveling around with him, solving suspicious cases, even if he is not in the army, he can die on the battlefield, punish traitors, and guard the soul of loyalty.

Wen Tao said as if he had made a major decision: "Mr. Pu, Tang Yue, I'm bothering you this time. I'm going back to Kunlun soon."

"Are you going?" Tang Wuyi blurted out, his eyes flickered slightly, and there seemed to be a slight tremor in his tone.

Wen Tao smiled brightly at him, he had never smiled so brightly, like the first ray of sunlight piercing through the clouds in the morning, making people unable to open their eyes.Not only Tang Wuyi, but even Pu Qiming stared at Wen Tao in a daze.

"I'll go back to Kunlun and explain to Master face to face, and then I'll trouble you to take me in." Wen Tao looked at Tang Wuyi.

There seemed to be countless small firecrackers exploding in Tang Wuyi's heart, he quietly grabbed Wen Tao's sleeve with his hand behind his back, and leaned against Wen Tao calmly, the tenderness in his heart seemed to overflow.

"So, that's fine." Mr. Pu's expression was a little uncertain, but neither Wen Tao nor Tang Wuyi had time to pay attention to it at the moment.He watched the two leave side by side. Although there was no communication, the uncontrollable joy and satisfaction made him stop and stare for a long time...
