Suzaku Fury

Chapter 15 [11] Suzaku Sky Street

Yuchi dealt with the contents of the oiled paper bag in a flustered manner, and was just about to raise his head to finish the last sip of wine, but he happened to glance at Di Renjie who was looking at the sky alone, his movements froze, and he retracted the posture of pouring the wine.

"Di Renjie!" Yuchi Zhenjin handed over the silver pot, "This seat is enough, you take it back."

Di Renjie looked back at him, took the silver jug ​​happily, and then drank the good wine inside.

"It's really good wine." Di Renjie sighed, "It's a pity that asking for a cup is as difficult as reaching the sky."

Yuchi raised his head proudly: "It's true that it's hard to find this wine in the Central Plains, but in our Western Regions, every family makes this wine, enough to drink freely!"

"It's really enviable." Di Renjie put the empty silver pot back under the saddle, "If there is a chance, I really want to go to the Western Regions to experience it. What do you think, my lord?"

Yuchi restrained his face and said: "Why not? When I retire and return to my hometown, I will take you back with me, and guarantee you to drink for three days and three nights, and you will not get drunk and return home!"

Di Renjie laughed loudly: "Then I will thank you sir first. But now, let's solve the Suzaku case first."

The two rode forward from Tianjie all the way, and it didn't take long for them to see the magnificent Suzaku Gate and the Rain Ritual Altar being built in front of the gate.Although the first watch had passed at this time, the craftsmen who built the altar were still rushing to work.

Di Renjie moved his horse forward and stopped in front of the half-completed altar, but he did not dismount.

"That little brother!" He stopped a craftsman who was walking towards him, "I have something to ask."

The craftsman saw that they were wearing official uniforms, and one of them had a fierce face, so although he didn't want to pay attention, he had no choice but to walk up to Di Renjie's horse.

"What's your order?"

Di Renjie jumped off the horse, supported the horse's back with one hand, and said, "Don't be cautious, little brother. I don't want to make things difficult for you, but I just want to ask a few questions."

"Sir, please speak."

"Have you been building the altar in front of the gate since the beginning? Are you on duty [-]/[-]?"

"Yes. Since Tianhou ordered the altar to be built, he has been working all day long."

"Okay." Di Renjie said with a smile, "Then, have you ever witnessed or heard of 'Suzaku Apparition'?"

When the craftsman heard the word 'Suzaku', his expression changed instantly, and he waved his hands hurriedly and wanted to walk away.

When Di Renjie saw him, he hurriedly stood in front of him, and then tapped Yuchi Zhenjin on the horseback with his chin and said: "This is Mr. Yuchi, the Minister of Dali Temple. I was only ordered to ask questions. If you don't obey, I will treat you as an obstacle to work. Take you back to Dali Temple."

Di Renjie's intimidation was immediately effective. The craftsman heard it and said in a panic: "My lord, it's not that the grassroots don't want to say it, but I really can't say it!"

Yuchi looked down and asked, "Why can't you tell?"

"The overseer ordered that what happened that night must be banned, and those who violate it will be imprisoned as rumormongers. My lord, I have no choice but to do this!"

Yuchi snorted coldly: "How dare a little supervisor be so arrogant? If that's the case, then call your supervisor to come see me, and I'll ask you clearly."

The craftsman heard the amnesty, and quickly took orders to retreat and find someone to go.After a while, a man in black official uniform knelt down in front of Yuchi's real golden horse.

"The next official pays homage to the Minister of Dali Temple."

"Get up and talk." Yuchi Zhenjin asked before he could stand still completely, "I would like to ask, what is the so-called Suzaku all about."

The overseer looked troubled, and hesitated before saying: "This matter... the oral order from the palace cannot be said at all, but if the adults insist on asking, I will tell the truth."

"It was almost the curfew that night, the crowds on Tianjie gradually receded, and our side was about to send the craftsmen away, but just at this moment, we heard a scream in the air, and within a moment, we saw... Suzaku. "

"Did you see Suzaku?" Di Renjie walked up to him, "Why are you so sure that what you saw was Suzaku?"

"That bird is covered in red flames, its screams are piercing, and its wings are as wide as a sky street. If it's not the fire phoenix and Suzaku, who is it?!"

Di Renjie and Yuchi Zhenjin looked at each other, and asked again: "You kept saying that it was Suzaku, so could you please describe the situation that night? For example, where did that 'Suzaku' come from and where did it go? "

"It came from the end of Tianjie, hovered over Suzaku Gate for a while, and then went to the end of Tianjie." After finishing speaking, the supervisor said, in order to convince them, "These things are definitely not fabricated by lower officials. Thousands of people can testify."

Yuchi Zhenjin pondered for a while, then looked up at the bamboo shed built with bamboo for the altar.His eyes narrowed slightly, his lips twitched slightly, and suddenly he seemed to realize suddenly, his round eyes widened, he patted the horse's head when he was full of breath, jumped off the horse's back with his strength, and flew towards the scaffolding.

"My lord!" Di Renjie didn't expect him to do this, and hurried to lead the two frightened horses.

I saw Yuchi Zhenjin tapped his feet, flexibly alternated his arms, and climbed up the scaffold almost as high as the Suzaku Gate in a short while, attracting the exclamation of the onlookers on the street.

However, he was not affected at all, and he jumped between the scaffolds to check, looking at one side for a while, and then jumping to the other side for a while.

Di Renjie couldn't help but sweat for him when he saw it, but fortunately he had seen Yuchi's skill against a hundred. Although he was worried, he calmed down in the end, quietly watching the handsome young man in official uniform Jumping up and down in mid-air.

Finally, Yuchi Zhenjin stood still in front of a slender bamboo, stretched out his hand to touch the bamboo, and finally chopped off a small part with his sword.

When everyone thought he was going to come down from the scaffolding, Yuchi Zhenjin just jumped from the top of the scaffolding, then kicked a long bamboo to change the direction of his fall, and when he settled down, he was already standing on the scaffolding. On the corner of a house in front of the shelf.

The wind was blowing under his feet, his movements were swift and unsloppy, and he had already run across the roofs of several houses in the blink of an eye.He sometimes galloped on the tiles, sometimes squatted down to observe and think, and finally returned along the original road, jumped off the horn, and landed right back on the horse, winning the applause of the onlookers.

Yuchi's face was indifferent, without any complacent expression, it seemed that such a behavior was as normal to him as daily tea and dinner.He frowned and said nothing, threw the bamboo knot he had just captured to Di Renjie, then pulled the rein of the horse, and ordered:

"Get on the horse, Di Renjie, hurry back to Dali Temple!"

Di Renjie was puzzled at first, but when he turned the bamboo joint that Yuchi gave him, he immediately understood.He hurriedly stuffed the bamboo joints into the sack hanging on the horse's back, quickly turned on the horse, and before riding the horse, he still did not forget to thank the bewildered overseer: "Thank you."

After saying that, he kicked the stirrup and galloped in the direction of Dali Temple after Yuchi Zhenjin's red horse.
