The hot weather has lasted for more than half a month.

In the evening, a sudden heavy rain not only did not drive away the heat, but turned Chang'an City into a huge steamer.

Dongdongdongdongdongdong!

As night falls over Chang'an, drums ring in the six streets.

Su Dawei stood on a stone bridge on Anhuamen Street and looked into the distance.

In the night, the outline of the imperial city is vaguely visible.

He turned around and saw that the gate of Datongfang was closing not far away.

"Ami, let's go."

A young man in his early twenties walked up to the stone bridge and shouted at Su Dawei.

Ami is Su Dawei's nickname, and can only be called by his family and his closest friends.

The young man was named Zhou Liang, who was Su Dawei's elder brother and also a friend.

Su Dawei is now eighteen years old, a bad person in Chang'an County. Because Zhou Liang is five years older than him and has a deeper qualification, he usually takes Zhou Liang as the leader and follows Zhou Liang. Therefore, with Zhou Liang's call, Su Dawei immediately agreed, took two steps, caught up with Zhou Liang, went down from the other end of the stone bridge, and marched along the long street.

The two of them were dressed in black and had a knife across their waists.

Walk along Anhuamen Street, check whether the Fangmen Gate along the way is closed one by one, and leave corresponding records.

On the way, they also met a team of Jinwu Guards.

Fortunately, the two of them wore waist cards issued by Chang'an County, so Jinwu Guard did not make things difficult for them.

"Second brother, this waist card looks different from the waist card in the daytime."

"Of course it's different. This is specially made by the Taishi Bureau for us and is used for night patrols. It is very different from the waist tags we wear on weekdays."

Su Dawei asked in confusion: "What's the difference?"

Zhou Liang said: "It's the difference, hehe, you'll know it in the future."

The night was dark, and Zhou Liang's expression was not clear.

But from his words, Su Dawei still heard something unusual.

"Ami, you have become a bad person, so you don't know many things. This Chang'an is definitely not as simple as you imagined. Especially at night... the night ban is just a ban on people. With this waist card to protect you and me."

"I still don't understand."

"Haha, you will understand slowly!"

Zhou Liang was very taboo in his words, and seemed to have some concerns.

Su Dawei became even more confused.

He and Zhou Liang are very close. It can be said that they have been playing behind Zhou Liang's butt since childhood. His brother has always taken care of him. Now he is hesitant, which makes Su Dawei's curiosity even more, and he can't help but want to ask.

But at this moment, Zhou Liang suddenly stopped.

"Second brother, why don't you leave?"

“Did you feel anything?”

"What do you feel!"

Su Dawei looked confused and looked at Zhou Liang who was standing motionless in the middle of the street.

However, Zhou Liang did not answer, just frowned and said, "Don't talk, stand in place, don't move."

"good!"

Su Dawei agreed.

But when he said that, he reacted and quickly covered his mouth with his hands, while looking at Zhou Liang curiously.

Zhou Liang stood there for about thirty breaths before he let out a long breath, shook his head, and let out a bitter smile.

"Ami, you're not surprised, why do we have to patrol at night?"

"Didn't it meant that Chang'an City has not been peaceful recently, so we were asked to cooperate with the Jinwuwei operation?"

"Yes, it's not peaceful!"

Zhou Liang sneered and looked into the imperial city in the distance.

Tonight, the sky above Chang'an was covered with clouds and there was no starlight.

The outline of the imperial city is also hazy in the dark and cannot be seen clearly.

"I heard someone say a few days ago that the dragon body of Tiankang is in peace and is already terminally ill."

"Well, I have heard this statement, but what does it have to do with our night patrol?"

"I don't know this either."

After Zhou Liang finished speaking, he waved his hand at Su Dawei and said, "Let's go, let's go again, hurry up and patrol and go back to rest. It's a hot day, after walking for a while, the clothes are soaked. I hope I can be safe tonight."

It’s best to be safe!

Su Dawei smiled and hurriedly took two steps to keep up with Zhou Liang.

However, he couldn't help but look back at the imperial city: Tian Khan, are you going to die?

Huh?

He suddenly let out a soft cry and stopped and walked: "Second brother, look."

"What do you see?"

"It seemed like something was moving in the imperial city just now."

"No!"

Zhou Liang stopped, looked at the imperial city for a long time, shook his head, looked at Su Dawei in confusion and said, "Ami, are you dazzled?"

"No, I just..."

Su Dawei said something to his mouth, but closed his mouth again.

What did he see? He saw nothing! Just as the moment he turned around, he seemed to see the imperial city trembling.

How is that possible!

How could the imperial city tremble?

Could it be that I was really confused?

Thinking of this, Su Dawei smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "It's nothing, let's go."

"Um!"

Zhou Liang agreed and walked along the street.

At this moment, a silver snake rushed out of the dark clouds, followed by a crackling sound, and the pale lightning illuminated the long street.

A dragon roar faintly came from the direction of the imperial city.

This time, Zhou Liang heard it, and Su Dawei also heard it.

The two of them quickly stopped and turned to look at the imperial city. In a trance, they seemed to see a golden dragon...

The golden dragon hovered over the imperial city.

The golden dragon flashed in a flash, and then a dense lightning shot out from the clouds, and the thunder roared, illuminating the imperial city pale.

Lightning seemed to be bombarding the imperial city.

The imperial city swayed like a mirage in the white light, which seemed very unreal.

Ding, ding, ding!

The silver snake disappeared, and a series of bells suddenly rang out in the imperial city.

"Second brother, what's going on?"

Without waiting for Zhou Liang to answer, a bell rang out from the Buddhist temple not far away.

After all, Zhou Liang has several years of experience than Su Dawei, and he also knows a lot about the rules in Chang'an City.

At this time, the bells of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples in Chang'an City were heard one after another. Although he was not very clear about what had happened, he could guess that something must have happened. His face suddenly changed drastically, and he pulled Su Dawei and ran away.

"Second brother, what are you running for?"

"Don't ask so much, follow me."

Chang'an Sixth Street and Anhuamen Street are among the top.

At every street intersection, there will be a military shop for night patrolers to rest.

Su Dawei followed Zhou Liang immediately, but before they could run far, a strange sound suddenly came from all directions.

The sound was like a ghost crying and howling, making hair stand up.

Zhou Liang stopped and his face suddenly turned pale.

In the night, black gas that was not easy to detect with the naked eye emerged from the dark ditch on both sides of the street from the shadows, from the corners, and quickly gathered on the streets. In an instant, the long street was covered by the black gas, and the howlings of ghosts and wolves came one after another. The black gas became thicker and thicker, and spread rapidly. The breath coming from the black gas made people feel weak.
