After Elder Wu finished speaking, he announced the end of the exchange competition, and walked out of the ring and walked towards the canteen of the Martial Academy. However, he didn't go fast, and as long as someone was willing to go along, he would soon be able to catch up.

Gao Biyun exchanged a few words with the other teacher, and was the first to break away from his team and walk to Elder Wu's side. The two are like friends for many years, talking while walking. After a while, Elder Wu's group became more and more crowded, and when they reached the cafeteria, the team had expanded to six.

The students of the various academies gathered in the square also began to disperse, and of course the students of the Hero Martial Arts Academy went to the cafeteria to eat, seeing everyone's elated appearance, it was estimated that the canteen would not have enough drinks to sell today. Some of the students from other academies returned to school, some visited the Hero Martial Arts Academy, and of course, some went to the cafeteria to see the quality of the food.

Xu Liang and the others walked down the ring with the prizes they had won, and joined Ye Heng and the others.

"Xu Liang, give me the things, I'll keep them for you, you go to the Imperial Capital Girls' School to find Qin Zhimeng now, help me invite, I want to invite her to dinner." Sanmen Jun saw Xu Liang and immediately ordered him to do something.

"Who is Qin Zhimeng? I don't know!" Xu Liang said in embarrassment.

"Stupid, it's the girl who fought with you for a round! Don't go quickly!" Sanmen Jun yelled at him.

"It turns out that her name is Qin Zhimeng, the name is so good, hey, hey, hey!" Xu Liang smirked and ran away, where was there still the fierce and vicious look on the stage.

Most of the students of the Imperial Capital Girls' School are visiting the Hero Martial Arts Academy, and for these new girls, other colleges and universities are very mysterious, since they are here, of course, they have to take a good look. Moreover, it seems to be a woman's nature to wander around, shopping, shopping, and traveling, and every time you go to a new place, you don't look around as if you haven't been there at all.

Xu Liang easily found Qin Zhimeng, and ran forward excitedly, but he stammered and suddenly didn't know what to say.

Qin Zhimeng looked at Xu Liang's clumsy appearance, laughed coquettishly, and said to the female companion beside her: "You guys go shopping first, don't wait for me, I want to talk to this 'Invincible God of War'!"

Several female companions laughed and teased a few words before leaving, leaving the two alone.

"Say, what are you looking for me?" Qin Zhimeng asked with a playful smile behind her hands and generously.

"I, my sister-in-law, my sister-in-law thinks, please eat!" Looking at Qin Zhimeng's beautiful face, Xu Liang didn't know why, his heart was even more flustered, and he said it very hard in a simple sentence.

Qin Zhimeng knew that the advisor said, "Who is your sister-in-law?

"My sister-in-law is, it's Sanmen Jun, by the way, before, she used to be called Murong Jun, but now she doesn't like people to call her her former name, do you know?" Xu Liang replied, after the initial nervousness, he gradually spoke more and more neatly.

"Oh, it's Sister Jun!" Qin Zhimeng pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and said, "Where is Sister Jun? Why did she become your sister-in-law? You can't lie to me, do you? You say, are you trying to lie to me?"

Xu Liang hurriedly waved his hand, anxiously defending: "I didn't, I didn't, I didn't lie to you! I lied to you, I lied to you, I lied to you, I was a puppy!" In a hurry, Xu Liang stammered again, "She is my brother, my brother's wife, of course, of course, my sister-in-law!"

Qin Zhimeng smiled, she didn't expect this burly man who could scare people to death when he got into a fight, and he was such a fun shy teenager to come to the audience.

"Then let's go, don't let your sister-in-law wait!" Qin Zhimeng accepted his invitation very generously.

Xu Liang hurriedly led the way in front, and after meeting with Ye Heng, he knew that today's cafeteria must be overcrowded, so he came back to Ye Heng's dormitory together.

When Qin Zhimeng saw Ye Heng's luxurious accommodation, her heart was shocked, and some things immediately became clear to her. can be recognized by the Hero Martial Arts Academy, and enjoy such a high-standard treatment, then the strength of the master here is self-evident.

Sanmen Jun pulled Qin Zhimeng to chat, Ye Heng and Liu Xinyue immediately cooked, since the people of Fengbing Pavilion had been living here during this time, the ingredients were well prepared, and the two of them were familiar with the road, and it didn't take long to make a large table of delicious dishes.

Qin Zhimeng ate this meal very comfortably, because what people here do is very natural. It can be seen that Ye Heng, Sanmen Jun and Liu Xinyue are the core figures here, but in addition to the respect that others should have for them, they do not have that kind of restrained compliment, or deliberate flattery, let alone that kind of strict restrictions on superiors and subordinates. Everyone chatted very relaxedly, no big or small jokes, even Ye Heng, who seemed to have the highest status, would be ridiculed by little guys like Tianyi. It can be seen that they should usually be like this, and they are not deliberately performing in front of Qin Zhimeng.

Ye Heng said to Qin Zhimeng: "Zhimeng, I can see that you are a smart girl in ice and snow, so I will tell you the truth." Most of us are orphans, and we are each other's brothers and sisters. Xu Liang followed me from birth to death, although he is not very old, he has experienced no less danger than others, follow me and let him suffer!"

"Big brother, don't say that, I don't feel bitter!" Xu Liang hurriedly interjected.

"Can you let me finish speaking?" Ye Heng was very helpless, and glanced at Xu Liang dissatisfied, Xu Liang immediately lowered his head and hurriedly pulled the rice in the bowl. I don't know what's wrong today, since Qin Zhimeng appeared, Xu Liang, who has always eaten well, can't eat his mind, his mind has been on Qin Zhimeng's body, and he doesn't even know that his bowl is empty, and he is still pretending to eat.

Qin Zhimeng immediately discovered his embarrassment, and he didn't say anything, he just felt funny, and even felt that Xu Liang was very cute.

Ye Heng continued: "Sitting here, it is all the members of our Fengbing Pavilion in the imperial capital, their strength is limited, in this giant Yong'an City, they are not even a small gang, but we will use our lives to protect each other and never let anyone be harmed." ”

When the people of the Fengbing Pavilion heard Ye Heng's words, they immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks, their spirits lifted, and they puffed up their chests, as if they had received the greatest praise and encouragement.

Qin Zhimeng listened carefully, and her heart was also shocked.

"For me, the Blade Pavilion doesn't feel like a sect or a gang, it's more like a big family. I, the pavilion master, am not competent, and I rely on Xu Liang and them to support me, and it is really not easy to develop to this point. Our headquarters is in Jinyang Prefecture, mainly engaged in all kinds of weapons, which is not wealthy, but it is also a small family. We have just established a branch in Yong'an City, but I believe that this is just the beginning, and in the next few years, we will definitely have branches in all state cities. Ye Heng introduced the Fengbing Pavilion to Qin Zhimeng, but to Qin Zhimeng's ears, it was more like telling her about Xu Liang's family background.

"I'm now at the intermediate Martial King level, the highest combat power of our Fengbing Pavilion, this kind of strength is still far from the top forces, but if ordinary forces want to oppress us, it won't be so easy! As for the other members, Xu Liang and Tianyi have also seen their strength today, and their potential is endless, I believe you can also see it." Of course, the strength of our headquarters will only be stronger than here, otherwise we will not be able to send them to the Hero Martial Academy to study. Ye Heng said this, obviously to show Qin Zhimeng the strength of the Fengbing Pavilion.

Of course, Qin Zhimeng knew why Ye Heng was saying this, and said: "It sounds like the Fengbing Pavilion is indeed very good, if it is possible, I think I can take a closer look." ”

Ye Heng and the others all smiled slightly in understanding, but Xu Liang, a big man, was full of mush in his head, and he didn't understand what others were saying, and of course, he didn't know where his mind was.

"Sister Zhimeng, the weapons in our Fengbing Pavilion are all genuine good things, the quality is excellent, the price is fair, if your friends have any needs, just look for Xu Liang, for your sake, we will all give discounts!" Liu Xinyue saw that Ye Heng finished talking about business, and began to attract potential customers, and the two women chatted happily.

In this way, Ye Heng had nothing to do, and began to drink with Xu Liang and the others to celebrate their victorious return.

Elder Wu and the leaders of each academy finally discussed the form of communication in the future, and each academy left one after another in the afternoon. Qin Zhimeng also left with the Imperial Capital Girls' School, looking at her distant back, Xu Liang felt like she had lost her soul.

After that, the Heroic Martial Academy finally returned to a peaceful school life, and Xu Liang and the seven members of the Heavenly Wolf Soldier began to receive training from Fan Ming and Long Yuntian. The affairs of the Fengbing Pavilion branch have also been completed, and Lu Xiaofei is fully responsible. When the second group of members sent by the Fengbing Pavilion arrived and placed them in Lu Xiaofei, the business of the branch began to operate officially.

When everything was ready for Yong'an City, Ye Heng asked Elder Wu for leave, planning to return to Jinyang Prefecture with Liu Xinyue and Qiao Yong. Sanmen Jun stayed in Yong'an City to help Lu Xiaofei take care of his business, and in his free time, he went to Xuanji Hall to follow Sun Shen's medical doctor, and lived a very fulfilling life.

Before leaving Yong'an City, Ye Heng invited Liu Xinyue to go out for a walk, it is not easy to come all the way to the emperor, it doesn't matter if you haven't been to other places, but it is inevitable that there are some regrets when you take a look at the palace. After Liu Xinyue came to Yong'an City, she has been busy with the establishment of the Fengbing Pavilion branch, and she is going back to Jinyang Prefecture, first, to let Liu Xinyue relax, and second, to buy some gifts and specialties for the brothers stationed at the headquarters.

Walking on the streets of Yong'an City, the streets are clean and tidy, full of green trees, compared with a year ago when Ye Heng came, the whole city has changed a lot, the first feeling is clean, not only the roads, but even the houses on both sides are painted with new paint, and it is rare to see piles of garbage and dirty and smelly ditches. The second feeling is quiet, whether it is a wide road or a narrow alley, everywhere is deserted, there are few pedestrians, there are almost no vendors who set up stalls, and there is no noisy hawking along the street, the silence makes people feel very uncomfortable, and it always feels that something is missing.

Walking to the center of Yong'an City, it is also a great change! There are high-rise buildings everywhere, there are luxurious shops, restaurants with bright lights, and shopping malls crowded with each other, making people feel that the center of Yong'an City and its periphery are like two worlds.

Everything here is full of luxury, and people seem to have a good taste or quite a mood in all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation. The place to eat pays attention to the environment and atmosphere, of course, the color and fragrance of the dishes are more exquisite, and the appearance of the dishes must not be bad; the clothes are all the fine products made by the major commercial houses, and the men and women are beautiful and charming when dressed up, and there is a luxurious atmosphere from the inside to the outside; the brands must be selected for the living, and the things that are not produced by the big merchants are not wanted, the goods that are not time-honored brands are not bought, and the things that are not obtained at a large price are not used, and there is a sense of superiority and superiority in life everywhere. This aspect is even more exquisite, rare BMW horses, you can see them everywhere here, Ye Heng even saw a lot of Xiangyunzhuang produced the best horses. The accessories of these horses are quite beautiful, inlaid with gold and silver beads, and you can tell that they are expensive at a glance. Even the padding under the saddle is mostly cashmere or camel hair products from the nomadic peoples of the Western Regions. There are even high-rollers with four-horse carriages, the horses are BMWs, the cars are incense cars, and the travel entourage is hugged before and after, and the lineup is extremely prosperous. If it weren't for the strict restriction of "the Son of Heaven drives six horses, the princes drive four, the doctor three, the scholar two, and the Shu one", it is estimated that with their strength, let alone four horses, even twelve horses can be handled.

No matter where you go in and out, the merchants are very polite, and the sweet smile and thoughtful service make you feel that you are not there

I was embarrassed to go out after spending some of it. But the staggering price discourages those who are shy in their pockets, or those whose pockets are not very bulging. People seem to be more civilized and polite, and society seems to be more orderly. It's just that, after getting used to these professional smirks, you will find that everything here has to be linked to silver!

Ye Heng looked at this city that he was not very familiar with, and through the false smiles and self-deceptive tastes of people, what he saw was pure money transactions. As long as you have money, as long as you are willing to spend money, there is nothing that you can't buy! If you don't come to spend, as soon as you go out, or even just turn around, the smiling face behind you will become lonely and ruthless; the elegance and taste you see in your eyes are just pretentious and pretentious, and the appearance of a person in front of you does not represent the flies behind you. The so-called taste is just a layer of gorgeous appearance plated with money, and no amount of whitewash can hide the taste of other scum.

True taste is obtained through humanistic cultivation and self-cultivation, not vassal elegance. The real taste, even a simple plate of shallots and tofu can eat the fresh breath of nature, and taste a clear and innocent state of life, and those who eat luxurious food The so-called taste is just used by those oily and floury 'superior people' to frame the façade, or to show off and pretend to be garlic props.

It's just that after less than half a day's effort, Ye Heng has lost interest in continuing to shop. He didn't know what was going on with the city, in his eyes, in addition to seeing pure trade and people's rising **, the relationship between people became more and more indifferent, the whole city was a city of commodities, anything could be traded, even marriage and love could be bought and sold. This is a pure commodity society, a society of **, a society that makes people crazy.

When Ye Heng accompanied Liu Xinyue shopping, he met several girls who came to talk. On the premise of knowing that Ye Heng had a female companion, they saw that Ye Heng was sunny and handsome, and he was rich and heroic, so they took the initiative to create an opportunity to come forward and talk, which made Ye Heng very disgusted.

Ye Heng felt more and more that the city was beautiful, no, it should be said to be neat, its beauty did not belong to the beauty of nature, the traces of artificial whitewash were too strong, it could only be said that it was clean and tidy, it was not a pleasing beauty at all, but the communication between people was diluted. The world is already hot and cold, and with the addition of human factors, people are indifferent even faster.

Ye Heng accompanied Liu Xinyue in and out of major commercial houses and shops, Liu Xinyue was really happy, she didn't care if she bought anything or not, she didn't care what she bought, she was enjoying the good time alone with the people she loved now.

After all, after going out for a shopping trip, Liu Xinyue still bought some things, but there were not many types of things to buy. It's not that she's not short of money, but that in her mindset there's no need to buy things that aren't practical or inconsequential. She bought two clothes for herself that were meticulously made and very beautiful to wear, bought soft glutinous pastries and a pair of jade bracelets for Lu's mother, and bought some famous wine for Xue Gai and other old men.

After buying things, Ye Heng originally wanted to take her to eat some special delicacies here, but after looking for a long time with his memory, he couldn't find the original store. When he first came to Yong'an City last year, he accompanied Sanmen Junke and ate a lot of food. According to Sanmen Jun, many of the delicacies she had eaten before were no longer available, but after only a year, many of the small shops that the two of them had been to were gone.

Finally, after continuous inquiries from passers-by, I finally found a tavern in the depths of an alley that is said to have been opened for decades by three generations of grandparents. The tavern was not large, packed with five tables.

The wine of this house is made from its own pure grains, with pure fragrance, soft and refreshing, soft in the mouth, sweet in the mouth, and endless aftertaste. Ye Heng asked for a pound first, and then ordered his family's special braised pork and a few refreshing side dishes, and tasted it slowly with Liu Xinyue.

It can be seen that the few books that come here are all old customers of the tavern, and the boss will be familiar with any customer he meets, and of course there are a few new customers like Ye Heng. The guests who came here had some of them drinking directly and going home to drink, and some of them brought their own snacks and food to drink two or three taels, and everyone talked about the world and had a good time.

Chatting about the happy place, several familiar old customers began to draw fists and orders, and some people said all kinds of witty words to persuade wine, and the scene was very lively. People like Ye Heng, who are usually used to drinking alone, are very envious when they see such a scene.

Most of these old customers are elderly people, and when they talk about the current Yong'an City, they sigh one by one.

A drunken white-bearded old man said with emotion: "The morning market is gone, the night market is gone, the stalls are gone, the hawkers along the street are gone, and the whole city is empty, quiet, and lifeless! If you don't get old and can't walk anymore, you really want to escape from this place where you have lived for half your life!"

"Yes, when I wake up early in the morning, I can't eat the hot baked cakes of the old Wangtou's family anymore, I can't eat the mutton soup that makes people flow from the bald fat man's house, and there is also the big meat bun of Liu Ji's family, with thin skin and big filling, and a mouthful full of juice, that fragrant! Unfortunately, it's gone!" said another old man who lived nearby.

The old man at another table next to them said: "There is no way, the government says that they are occupying the road and affecting the city's appearance, but if they are driven away, both sides of the road will be idle? When the people are gone, all the vehicles of various families are parked, and the road is not occupied? There are no bustling living people on the road, but there are more rows of dead things, is this kind of city beautiful? A small number of people's parking problems have been solved, but the lives of most people have been affected, and I really don't know what is wrong with this world!"
