Chapter 927: Seven Feet
Time is ruthless, but it does not mean that there is no residual warmth in the ashes of history, there are many times, a long time, will make people forget the past, but often it is not really let go, but forget it.
With the passage of time, when the people and things around them continue to change, many people's memories will gradually forget, and for some people, the picture engraved like a sculpture in the sea of knowledge, no matter when I think back, it is so unforgettable.
In fact, Sun Cockroach's life in the past ten years can be described monotonously in one sentence.
Go into battle, kill the enemy, save people!
These simple words almost encompass the rest of his life.
In the entire Dunshan army, no one knew where he came from, no one knew what he had done, and how half of his teeth fell out, and over time, everyone had forgotten his real name.
He is an undead cockroach running tirelessly in the flesh and blood mill of the Endless Mountain, but now that the war in the Western Xinjiang is over, he has returned to the Central Plains and once again stood on the willow leaf alley.
When Sun Cockroach stood at the entrance of Liuye Lane, his eyes fell into the memory, Peng Mu, who was standing on the side, did not open his mouth to disturb, but waited quietly, because Peng Mu knew that in the Dunshan Army, the stories and mysteries belonging to Sun Cockroach may be solved today.
The scorching sun climbed and came to the top of everyone's heads, and at lunchtime, the originally crowded crowd in Willow Leaf Lane dispersed a little, and then Sun Cockroach, who had been standing for a long time, slowly exhaled a breath and said softly:
"My real name is Sun Qian. ”
After the sound of the sun cockroach with a slight leakage fell, Peng Mu on the side turned his head, and a surprised voice sounded:
"Your name is really like a scholar, unlike me, when I was a child, my father was a carpenter, and he dealt with wood all his life, so he gave me a single name and a wooden character. ”
"A humble gentleman, gentle as jade, such as cutting, such as learning, such as grinding, my name is given by the master. ”
Sun Cockroach's response contained a hint of grief, and then he raised his hand, patted Peng Mu's shoulder, and took the lead in raising his feet and stepping forward, while the voice continued to come out:
"And Peng Mu, I have said it more than once, don't look at me now sloppy and sloppy, when I was young, I was really a scholar, and not only the willow leaf lane under our feet, but also the girls in the boudoir in the entire Shenjing City, there are many people who secretly think about me. ”
As soon as these words came out, Peng Mu's originally indifferent face, his mouth glanced, revealing an unbelievable look, and then he also followed behind, and the response voice came out:
"Sun cockroach, no, Captain Sun Qian, since you used to be so beautiful, if I were you, I wouldn't come back, if I was seen by the people I once admired, how many people's hearts would be broken. ”
As soon as Peng Mu's voice fell, the middle-aged man walking forward on the side paused directly, and then responded quietly:
"For many years, the girls who used to be in the boudoir must have all married. ”
In Sun Qian's words, there was melancholy and loneliness, for some reason, Peng Mu on the side swallowed the words he wanted to say in the future, and walked silently beside the former.
He knew that Sun Cockroach might have come to find one of those women who had once admired him.
But as the middle-aged man next to him said, more than ten years have passed, and the girl who used to be a boudoir may have already been a person now, and she can't remember whether she said it or not.
The two followed the crowd and walked slowly forward along the willow leaf alley for a distance, and then, perhaps because the atmosphere was too depressing, the middle-aged armor soldier Sun Qian turned his head slightly, then stretched out his right hand, pointed to a mansion beside him, and said lightly:
"Commander Peng, you have been in the army of the Jade Dragon Pass of Endless Mountain since you can remember, so you should not know the doorway of our mansion in Great Xia, since ancient times, in the culture of our human race, the size, orientation, and even every brick and tile of a mansion reflect the identity and status of the master's family. ”
After finishing speaking, Sun Qian and Peng Mu approached the mansion held by the two generals on the side, but they were not too close, Mo Yue was three steps apart, and then Sun Qian's voice with a little leaky wind continued to come out:
"The mansion is the foundation of human habitation, and it is of great significance to our human race, especially the place where the two important ministers of Great Xia live, Willow Leaf and Zizhu, are very rules, for example, you see the house in front of us, the distance from the outermost red pillar to the gate is what the world often says, and the length of the courtyard is actually very particular, the higher the official rank, the longer the length of this courtyard, the first grade official is nine feet, the second grade is eight, according to the grade and so on. ”
After Sun Qian's voice fell, Peng Mu nodded lightly, and then said thoughtfully:
"The mansion in front of us is General Sipin Mingwei, so according to Captain Sun, the length of this courtyard is six feet. ”
"Formalize this, and once the official is promoted, then it is necessary to rebuild this courtyard, which is a custom left by the previous dynasty of the Ying family, and it is also the origin of the word "courtyard" that we change. ”
After Sun Qian's faint words fell, the generals of the mansion not far away changed their faces one after another, because this was actually the most detailed doorway in the officialdom of the Great Xia Terran clan, and the ordinary people naturally had no way of knowing, but the two people below with extremely strange temperaments could easily tell them, which showed that this person's insight was extremely extraordinary.
Therefore, the two generals glanced at each other, and both saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes, and one of them turned his head and was about to speak, but found that the figures of the two had moved away from the distance and disappeared into the crowd.
After another quarter of an hour, Sun Qian took Peng Mu and searched through the Willow Leaf Alley, and then Peng Mu looked at the increasingly scarce crowd around him, as well as the extremely quiet environment, and asked softly:
"Captain Sun, where am I going?"
"This is still Willow Leaf Lane, but it is the back door, the house in Willow Leaf and Zizhu Lane, the main gate is generally not open unless there are distinguished guests and major events, so the ladies and others enter and exit through the back door. ”
After Sun Cockroach finished speaking, he took Peng Mu to a secluded forest in the backyard of Willow Leaf Lane, and then the former slowly hid his body in the increasingly dense vegetation in the spring, and looked at a house not far away, his expression flickering, and he was silent.
Later, Peng Mu also gradually hid his burly body, as an extremely elite warrior in the Endless Mountain, although both of them were armor warriors, not regular scouts, but the basic hiding skills could still be easily completed.
"The person you want to see is in the house in front of you?"
Peng Mu, who was half-squatting, stared at the back door of the house painted with red paint not far away, and after the voice came out faintly, Sun Cockroach did not speak back, but nodded, and then Peng Mu frowned and continued to speak:
"How deep is the doorway of this house?"
As soon as this question came out, Sun Cockroach, whose face was dark and his hair was messy, was silent for a while before he responded:
"Ten years ago it was seven feet, and now, I don't know. ”
