He went back to the inn to take a nap. When he woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Walking on the noisy street, he watched all kinds of people coming and going. There were businessmen, the elderly, and the ignorant children. This had almost become the main line. Occasionally, there would be some disharmony and petty theft.
Looking at the satisfied expressions of these commoners, Jun felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. He even felt that the world was happy and he was happy. Was the misconception that the world was suffering and he was suffering because he had the world in his heart?
Under the setting sun, the distant Royal Family Courtyard was covered with a layer of red. The Royal Family Courtyard occupied more than a hundred acres of land, but it was usually uninhabited. Now, it was used to imprison nobles of higher status and became a high-level prison. He stood on a small mountain far away from the courtyard and looked at the Imperial Family Courtyard.
His gaze jumped over the two-foot-tall wall. The door faced northeast. It was a traditional courtyard house that had been expanded several times. There were continuous houses, and the outline of the house could no longer be seen clearly. There were soldiers patrolling outside the wall. Jun roughly remembered that the longest patrol time was a cup of tea's time, which was near the south of the small lake. The other side of the lake was blocked by the wall, so he couldn't see it at all.
Sitting on the back of the hill, Jun took out the scallion pancake he bought from the stall and sat quietly by himself. He took a bite. It was a little greasy, but it was just right. It had the simplest taste. He looked at the road beside the hill. Although it was well built, it did not fit in with the desolate environment around it. The road was strangely quiet. There were no sounds of insects or birds. There was only a faint sound coming from the Imperial Family Courtyard in the distance.
After eating, he lay on the rock and waited for the red sun to disappear. Finally, when there was only a red cloud in the horizon, it was already dark. At this moment, it was time to change shifts, and he just happened to go to the periphery.
Under the night sky, a huge green eagle streaked across the sky like a meteor. It flew toward the glowing beast that was hibernating under the night sky and stopped by the small lake.
Jun lay on the ground, waiting for the guards to change shifts. Although Jun was not experienced in the world, he was not an idiot. He would not be stupid enough to think that he could fly in with his beast body. Today, Jun came here only to inquire about information.
After defeating the first group, Jun used the four-legged python that he rarely used. The python was a little clumsy, but it could hide well in the dark. The four extra fleshy feet dragged on the ground, making a sizzling sound. It was a little ear-piercing, but Jun tried his best to slow down the dragging. It was very subtle so that it would not be discovered. Originally, snakes would not make any sound when they moved, but now that the extra flesh had become a burden, it would affect its survival.
When the horse stopped at the foot of the two-foot-high wall, a series of orderly footsteps came from behind. Jun returned to his beast form. The python was too long and easy to spot. Jun was wearing black clothes and curled up under the wall with his face covered, completely hiding him under the night sky.
Looking at the wall under the moonlight, it was a little gray. There were no plants like the Boston ivy. It was bare. Jun stretched out his hand to test the wall. Although it did not feel rough, it was difficult to climb up. He could only rely on his beast body.
In the largest watchtower in the middle of the royal family's courtyard, a group of people were having fun. Wu Er was the banker. Wu Er had two brothers. One was Wu San, the constable of Yanhuang City. The other was the pride of the Wu family, and he had become a general. Wu San and Wu Er were doing so well largely because of their big brother. Their eldest brother was called Wu Meng, and he was as powerful as a demon. He had stained the blood of countless enemies on the battlefield, and he was Zhao Kuangyi's right-hand man.
Wu Er was the head of the guards in the royal family's courtyard and was quite popular. However, he was not as ruthless or cowardly as his elder brother. It was said that once he asked his father to send a letter to his elder brother, but he saw the Blood Empress faint on the battlefield. The three brothers had a good relationship.
It was mealtime, and many people would slack off for a while. They didn't think anything would happen. They all ran over to gamble.
Second Wu laughed and scolded," You bastards! Why aren't you guarding your posts? What are you doing here? You want to borrow money from me to go home after losing money again?" Don't even think about it for the next few days."
"Chief Wu, please be kind! I have an 80-year-old mother and 18 daughters!”It was unknown who said these words, but it caused waves of laughter.
"Aiya! You guys are so petty, unlike Leader Wu! He was very straightforward. He would never borrow five taels of silver.”The newcomer defended Wu Er.
"Haha! The newcomer was right. Chief Wu was a good person.”These subordinates all said happily. Clearly, their leader was indeed very popular.
"Alright, we've also gambled for a meal. Let's go patrol and come back to play. Remember, if you don't have money to take home, come find me.”Wu San ordered his men to disperse with a straight face. His men took their armor and weapons and scattered without any order. Wu San called out to one of them. "Commander Liu, wait a moment." After those people left, they stood in their respective positions and went on patrol.
" Boss, what's the matter?" This person was a little thin, but he was not in good spirits. His eyebrows were furrowed into a ball, and it was obvious that he had a lot on his mind.
"Commander Liu, you don't look happy. Is your family in trouble?”Second Wu said with concern on his normal face,"I have twenty taels of silver here. It should be enough for you to solve your problem.”
The thin middle-aged man wanted to take it, but he retracted his hand and said,"I'm fine."
"You're still stubborn, Old Liu! We've been together for five years! Don't I know what's wrong with that bastard in your house? Take it!”Wu San was also a little resentful when he talked about Old Liu's son. He stuffed a Wang Lu ticket into his hands.
Old Liu hesitated for a moment but still received it. "Head Wu, if you need anything, I will help you even if I die.”After saying that, he quickly ran out of the door and caught up with the patrolling team.
Wu San sat on the chair and slowly drank his tea. He was a poor man! Anyone would be unlucky to have such a son in their lifetime.
Jun leaned against the wall and looked inside. It was an empty space. However, what made Jun anxious was that there was another person in the ground. This person's figure was very thin. Dancing under the moon was a completely different kind of charm, different from Fantasy Demon Immortal's charm. His every move would make people look forward to it, making people feel that he was flying through the sky. Nobility was inherent in his dance. He was like the snow lotus of Tianshan, filled with coldness but wanting to prostrate himself in worship. However, as he danced, his elegance slowly turned into calmness. In the end, there was a hint of sadness. Perhaps this was a release of emotions.
Jun had forgotten what he was here for. He leaned against the wall and watched him dance. His neck was stiff but he could not feel anything. He just looked at him foolishly, hoping that he would not end. He leaned against the wall and forgot to prevent the guards from discovering him. Instead, he was afraid of disturbing his dance and wanted to comfort him and share his sorrow. This was enough to show that the depth of her dancing skills could affect people's emotions.
In the end, it ended in a flat manner. There was no magnificence or nobility. In Jun's opinion, it was more like the sadness that an ordinary person should have. I don't know why I'm sad. She squatted on the ground and sobbed softly. This woke Jun up. Was he a prince that was captured by the Yan Huang Empire? Was he homesick or was he sentimental?
Jun couldn't help but slide down the wall and walk towards him. He put his hand on his shoulder, wanting to comfort him. Through the black mask, he said,"What's wrong with you? Why are you unhappy? Is it because you don't have freedom? I can take you away. Don't cry. A man doesn't cry easily.”
