Along the way, the official road was long, and when the occasional farmhouse with a cow or a donkey passed by, Su Zi slowed down, and those people usually glanced at her.

It was about noon when a small village appeared in front of her.

The village is home to a hundred houses, and the narrow streets are crowded with vendors, and the streets are full of potholes, and from time to time you can see a pile of horse manure.

Most of the stalls sell fish, but there are also game from the mountains, but given the prosperity of the world, there should be a big town nearby to be so lively. Su Zi looked left and right as she walked. It's a little strange why it's so peaceful, as if the blood day not so long ago didn't have any effect on people.

After taking out a copper plate and buying a hat, Su Zi inquired by the way that the place where she was located was Jiumang Country, a small country on Yinzhou Island, and it took more than a month to go to Qingluo Island from here, and occasionally she had to take a boat. Although it only took two or three days for Kaede to bring her from Pingcheng when she first came. But that was the adult's footsteps, and it would take seven or eight days for Su Zi to say less. As for what she wanted to know about the recent war situation, the aunt who sold things widened her eyes in shock, and stammered: "Less, young man, is it difficult for you to go to Pingcheng? I heard Ah Liang say that there is a war going on in the whole south, and many people have died. It's dangerous. ”

Su Zi smiled soothingly and shook his head: "No, I'll just ask casually." My family lives on Qingluo Island, but it's far away from Heijo. ”

"That's good, that's good. As she spoke, the aunt waved her black hand and beckoned the other guests to go.

Su Zi wandered around the streets again, bought some of the necessities on the road, and left the dirty village quickly.

After walking for about another two or three hours, it was not until the sun went down that a city appeared at the end of the official road ahead.

It's useless to be anxious, the road is still far away, and after a good night's sleep without taking a bath for a few days, Su Zi feels that her body is so dirty that she can rub off a thick layer of mud, and she is very tired. Forget it, go into the city to find an inn to rest, and leave tomorrow morning, just try not to attract the attention of others. Thinking about it this way, Su Zi slowed down and turned to the city gate.

When Fang walked to the city gate, he heard the sound of music and cheers coming from inside. It sounded like some kind of celebration was going on.

Su Zi became curious, her heart moved, and she was about to speed up her pace. At this moment, a sound of footsteps came from behind her, straight towards her. Su Zi's muscles tightened subconsciously, her hand pressed the long sword on her waist, and when she looked back, she heard a woman's voice coming.

"Get out of the way. ”

The voice was crisp, cold, and didn't sound very old. As he spoke, a palm unceremoniously pushed on Su Zi's left shoulder. Being pushed by her like this, Su Zi suddenly took two steps back unsteadily. At the same time, a young man's laughter came from behind him: "Finally arrived at the place, I'm sorry, I haven't drunk a sip of water all the way, but I'm tired to death." ”

As he spoke, the young man jumped off his horse and beckoned to the two men who were following him. Coincidentally, as soon as he raised his head, he met Su Zi's little face who bent down to pick up the hat. The young man was stunned, sipped his mouth, and whistled: "Wow, what a beautiful boy." ”

Su Ziyin turned around angrily, the young man standing behind her was about twenty years old, his facial features were very handsome, his lips were red and his teeth were white, and he looked very affinity. On his left and right, there are also two young men and women, with good looks and very athletic skills.

They all had a long sword pinned to their waists, and they jumped lightly from their horses, looking up and down at Su Zi just like the young man who spoke.

After the young man said this, he stared at Su Zi for a moment. It wasn't until Su Zi put the hat back on and blocked most of his face that he grinned and asked politely, "Little brother, are you also here to participate in the Valentine's Moon?"

Seeing that Su Zi didn't answer, he stared at him vigilantly with big beautiful eyes under the brim of his hat, and said with a smile: "Don't mind, she's like this." Thinking you're a civilian, it's rude. As he spoke, he gestured to the woman walking in front of him.

Su Zi looked in the direction he pointed, and the delicate woman turned around impatiently and rolled her eyes, and quickened her pace. Su Zi understood, nodded, and said in a low voice, "It's out of the way." ”

"We were all classmates, and we came here to play. The young man smiled and talked to Su Zipan: "My name is Si, she is a cicada, and he is far away." ”

Su Zi nodded again, and after a moment of silence, he said in Si's expectant eyes, "My name is Su." ”

As they spoke, two of Si's other companions led their horses and gathered around.

A petite girl walked to Su Zi's right side, leaned over slightly and tilted her head to look at Su Zi, and said in surprise: "Huh, you're a girl, right?"

Su Zi blinked and smiled a little helplessly: "How did you see it?"

The girl grinned, squeezed her eyes at the young man next to her, and then turned to Su Zi and said, "I haven't seen a man as good-looking as you." And you have a good smell on you, and you don't have an Adam's apple. Si, you're so bad, you can't even tell she's a woman. ”

The young man named Si smiled disappretently, and suddenly, he took two steps, stepped forward, stretched his neck and sniffed at Su Zi heavily. Seeing his movements, Su Zi was shocked. She raised her hand and tried to push him away, but she quickly realized that she had overreacted to doing so.

After Si sniffed, his eyes lit up instantly, and his eyes stared at her body burningly. But soon, he scratched his ears in confusion and frowned thoughtfully.

Seeing him like this, Su Zi became curious. In fact, she had long wanted to know if others could feel her pheromones after neglecting her, or what their impression was when they saw her?

"Did you smell something?" asked Su Zi with sparkling eyes.

Si looked up at her and said with a puzzled expression: "It's very strange, it seems that there is a very special fragrance, my heart was pounding fast just now, but I can't smell it in a blink of an eye, and I don't know if it's an illusion or what...... By the way, why can't I feel like you're ranked?"

"Oh?" Hearing this, the girl and the other boy also approached to take a closer look, and their eyes lit up and then showed a blank expression.

In their equally puzzled eyes, Su Zi narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: "I don't know, maybe my pheromones are too weak, I'm a sir." This answer was quite successful, and the three of them turned their eyes away from her on the spot.

Su Zi's heart was relieved, and she couldn't help but feel a little proud, she was very satisfied to achieve such an effect.

As they spoke, several people had entered the city smoothly. The streets of this city are clean and spacious, and there is a constant flow of people. If you look at it, you can see young men and women, singing and dancing in groups, chasing and fighting in the streets.

Su Zi looked at the joyful atmosphere here, and was a little surprised. Could it be that Beihai won the battle, and they are celebrating?

"What was the Lover's Moon you just said?" Su Zi thought for a moment and asked Si who was walking in front.

They were leading their horses to the side of the street, blending in with the lively people, looking at the smiles on the faces of the young men and women who were passing by. Hearing Su Zi's question, he turned his head and said with a slight confusion: "Don't you know? Every year on this day, there will be a great man in this city who is admired by the world, leading us to revel, and will choose the most beautiful monarch on behalf of everyone. And the elected gentleman will choose his (her) favorite person from among us tonight, and set a few family affairs. Stay for a while, and there will be a lot of nobles. ”

After Si finished speaking, he laughed, turned his head to the petite girl on his left and said, "Cicada, I wonder if there will be a gentleman who will take a fancy to you today?"

Hearing this, the cicada shouted next to him: "Anyway, I won't take a fancy to you, you are already married." While speaking, she jumped next to Su Zi, took her sleeve with a good impression of Su Zi, and said excitedly: "Su, don't worry, you are so good-looking, there will definitely be a gentleman who will take a fancy to you." ”

Is this comforting her? Su Zi smiled bitterly, she was speechless about the various festivals in this world, isn't it just a blind date with different patterns, you can meet it wherever you go.

However, Su Zi was still puzzled in his heart, and after thinking about it, he turned his head to Si and asked, "But aren't we at war with Zhongzhou?

Si smiled briskly and said meaninglessly: "This festival is given by the moon god who is in charge of karma, and it is very valued, not to mention that a few days ago there was a bloody day that is rare in a hundred years, which made everyone very nervous, and it was the time to relax." ”

Hearing him mention the Blood Day, Su Zi's eyes widened suddenly, and Dan Tingsi added softly: "You don't know yet, do you?" ”

What?

Su Zi was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked anxiously, "Why is it so fast?"

"I'm also hearsay, it's said that something happened to Nanban. Si shook the reins in his hand and said slowly: "The Nu army in the western Xinjiang crossed the border, quickly took several cities, and captured the royal station, and Lord Yan had to withdraw his troops and rush back. It is not clear what the specific situation is on the side of Pingcheng, anyway, the army in Zhongzhou has retreated. ”

Su Zi was dumbfounded when she heard this, this passage was too informative, and it was too shocking and surprising to her. Her mind was in a mess for a while, and she couldn't figure it out.

"I heard that it is mainly because of the appearance of Fengjun, there are too many mysterious masters in Pingcheng, and almost all the powerful people in the world are there, so there is no way to fight this battle. The cicada beside Su Zi leaned over mysteriously, shrugged the tip of his nose playfully and said, "It's a pity that we didn't go to Pingcheng and missed the opportunity to get a glimpse of Fengjun's demeanor, hey." When the word Fengjun was mentioned, a flash of longing and yearning flashed in her eyes, and her expression was quite regretful.

"In my opinion, it's good that the Nanban is gone. ”

At this time, the young man who had been walking silently behind them, with a few pockmarks on his white face, interjected from afar. He said in an indignant tone, with hatred in his eyes: "Those people of the sea, it's just a matter of eating people, but the methods are really cruel. I saw with my own eyes that they hooked the iron between the human thighs, and then loosened the binding, and let the woman crawl out desperately under the severe pain, and the intestinal organs were pulled out of the body by themselves. Then he used a sharp weapon to pierce it from the thigh to the throat, and when he was alive, he was put on the bonfire and roasted, which was really miserable!"

Su Zi and Cicada were both shocked by his sudden words, their faces turned white with horror, and their bodies were chilled. Even the crowd that passed by them had a few people staring sideways at them.

Si glanced around, and hurriedly drank him: "Don't talk about these disappointments." Really, it's courtship day, so you can't afford not to mention these?"

The young man was depressed and angry, but he still kept his mouth shut. But I don't know why he didn't stop it since he saw it with his own eyes?

As he spoke, Si heard someone calling him. Following the prestige, the handsome woman who had pushed Su Zi into the city first was standing in front of a restaurant with a cold face, and urged with a little unhappiness: "What are you doing? ”

"It's coming. Si smiled heartily and replied.

The terrifying picture described by the young man appeared in his mind, Su Zi's palpitations did not disappear, her white face froze for a moment, and a strong sense of uneasiness and panic suddenly rose in her heart. She didn't care that she might reveal her whereabouts, so she ran two steps to catch up with Si and the others who were about to step into the store, and hurriedly asked, "Si, have you heard about Lord Qianxuan?"

"Lord Qianxuan?" was the indifferent woman.

She turned her head and looked at Su Zi fixedly, her dark gray eyes were a little ambiguous: "What are you talking about? Isn't her marriage to Lord Yan canceled?"

Facing this woman, Su Zi couldn't help but take a step back, a little wary of her. It's not that Su Zi is cautious, but among the young people in this line, she has the highest rank and is a lord.

Juezun Su Zi has seen a lot, but in this world, they are still quite a strong existence. Just looking at the woman pestle in front of the restaurant, the nobles who came in and out avoided one after another, and walked cautiously against the doorpost. However, when Su Zi heard her say this, she obviously knew better, and couldn't help but ask: "The marriage is canceled?" Then, do you know where she is now?"

"How do you know the whereabouts of your lordship?" The woman still had a cold face, but she stretched out her hand, stuffed a bag of things into Su Zi's arms, and said expressionlessly: "Where, it's for you." Let's go change your clothes. We'll see you here after the change. ”

Yes?

Su Zi looked at the clothes in his hand in surprise, with a puzzled expression.

"Sister, she's from out of town and doesn't know our customs. The cicada next to her explained enthusiastically, she pulled Su Zi, pointed out the crowd on the street for her, and led her to walk in with a grin: "Do you see them? We have to wear the same clothes as them and witness the beauty of our bodies to the moon god before we can be blessed." Let's go change together. ”

Where is Su Zi willing to go!

The maidens wore very short animal skins, made in the shape of bikinis, and covered only their breasts and buttocks! On their wrists and feet, strings of silver bells were tied, and some of them were still in the gap between their breasts, and a bowl of flowers was inserted. Of course, even if she doesn't wear anything on her upper body, Su Zi is used to it in Beihai, but she can dress up like this and show her body in the crowd-

Su Zi froze on his heels. When the cicada turned around in confusion, he said in embarrassment: "I won't go, you can go play." I've been in poor health lately, and I'm chilly......"

Before she could finish her words, the cicada's face changed and she hurriedly covered her mouth. At the same time, even Si and the others, who were about to leave, all changed their faces, took a step back nervously, and looked left and right.

Seeing that they reacted so much, Su Zi's eyes widened, and she didn't move, she didn't know what she said wrong?

At this moment, a faint sweet pheromone filled from behind. The person who came approached in broken steps, and the beautiful slender hand stretched out from Su Zi's left side, tugged heavily on the cicada's wrist, and said unhappily: "The will of the moon god cannot be violated, let alone deceived. Well, let me take her for a change. We know each other well. ”
