Located at the western end of the Ming border, Huashi City is an important hub for commerce and trade between the Three Kingdoms and the Gulan.

Unlike other cities, Huashi City does not have tall walls or mountain-like armies, but only rules that people have followed for decades. Anyone who violates the rules will be expelled. Relying on the rules, Huashi City has been stable for decades.

The Ming Dynasty tried to firmly control Huashi City, but in the end, it led to the blockage of trade. Rather than strangling and dominating the family, it is better to ignore it and let it grow. Although it is nominally the land of the Ming Dynasty, it is actually much more relaxed.

The lord of Huashi City is the magistrate of Zhengqipin, nominally a magistrate, but in fact, his life is far more comfortable than the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River. And the mountain here is high and the emperor is far away, so you only need to cope with the assessment of the state capital twice a year. This kind of beauty difference is something that countless people can't ask for.

The city lord's mansion was built extremely spacious, but the styles of various countries were mixed, and it seemed nondescript on the whole. The city lord's favorite is the pavilions and pavilions in the Jiangnan style, and the dance of Hu Xuan here is showing an attractive style at this time.

The wine in the glass cup and the liquor in the blue and white porcelain are intertwined, so that more and more people are overwhelmed by the wine, and this kind of drinking method is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Today is not a special day, but the city lord of Huashi City is interested in holding such a banquet, and the people who go to the banquet are basically big businessmen who monopolize certain items.

"It is said that there are no flowers and no stones in the flower stone city, but in fact, I don't know that this flower refers to a beauty, and the stone refers to the well-known silver. The city lord of Huashi City was half-lying on a chair, tilting his head, the wine in the cup was about to spill, and he raised his hand and said loudly.

Logically speaking, this magistrate must not pretend to be the lord of the city. However, the name of the county magistrate makes people feel that there are such and such constraints, and it is better to be called the city lord to reflect his rights.

"The city lord is interested, these beauties will stay in Huashi City, and it is also their honor to dance for the city lord. ”

On the surface, it is an upright business, but secretly there are many human trafficking and arms smuggling activities. There is a mountain involved in each line, and if the Ming Dynasty is really stuck at this pass, there will be a large number of people in the Tiandu who will change their faces because they have lost half of their income.

"Hahahaha! If I'm not mistaken, these beauties were sent to Tiandu!"

"The city lord really has a good memory, and he remembers such a little thing. It's no wonder that the city lord can manage this complicated Huashi City in an orderly manner, which is really admirable!"

"Then you have to send it well, but you can't bump into it, but don't ruin the reputation we have worked hard for decades!

These enchanting and charming beauties in front of them have a seductive charm with a smile and a smile. But the city lord is not a fool, women have it, and if the financial route is broken, it will be gone.

A person who loses judgment because of a momentary desire will never be able to achieve anything.

"The city lord is wise, tomorrow the little brother will send a few more here, which can be regarded as a great fusion of Hu Xuan's dance and the Central Plains dance, and maybe a new dance can be produced." ”

"Hahahaha......"

The lord of Flower Stone City is immersed in the "Flower Stone City" he has created, enjoying the satisfaction brought by his wise and martial decisions and the sense of accomplishment of flattery below.

"The Wanguo Dynasty has really brought a large number of new merchants, and it is foreseeable that Huashi City will be more prosperous in the next few years, and this Huashi City will have the scale of the sky. Huashi City can be called the first commercial capital in the world!"

"That's nature! Although there is the east wind of the Dynasty of All Nations, it actually depends on the strategy of the city lord, and only the city lord is in charge here, can Huashi City accommodate thousands of people and provide the best trade city for the world's business travel! ”

"A toast to the city lord!"

"Respect the city lord for his wisdom!"

"Worship the flowers and stone city and prosper forever!"

I don't know if it's because there is a lot of wine today, and the city lord of Huashi City has a feeling of fluttering immortals. In two years, he will be able to transfer out of Huashi City and return to Dangzhi County, Jiangnan. Although it is said that it is back to its homeland, it must not be as comfortable as here. Fortunately, the money has already been earned enough, enough for future generations to squander, and he always has to think about future generations. As for the countless illegitimate children here, they are left to their own devices.

The singing and dancing continued, the wine and meat continued, and the people at the banquet staggered, still thinking about the prosperity of Huashi City.

The City Lord of Flower Stone City squinted his eyes slightly, and the smile on his face could not dissipate.

"There is only one Flower Stone City in the world!There is only one Flower Stone City Lord!Hahahaha......"

In this way, the city lord of Huashi City is extremely attentive on weekdays, but at this time, he said it unscrupulously after being drunk.

At this moment, someone suddenly broke through the door and ran in covered in blood, shouting "no, no, no, no". But the dancing women blocked him, and the glamorous music drowned out his shouts, and the drunken crowd was unlikely to notice him.

It wasn't until the personal guards of the city lord of Huashi City realized that something was wrong that they shouted back and whispered in the city lord's ear, but it had no effect.

More and more people ran in, either covered in blood or urine, crying "no, no, no", but they couldn't say why.

"What's wrong? Could it be that the woman in your bed is not good?" haha......" said the people at the banquet laughing, apparently not realizing what was happening.

The personal guard of the city lord of Huashi City appeared at the door, looked out, suddenly lost color, and returned to the city lord to report the situation.

"What's the matter, I'll talk about it tomorrow, today is only suitable for drinking......"

More and more people rushed in, and the cries overshadowed everything, and the singers and dancers cowered in the corners.

Seeing that it had no effect, the guard felt his heart and slapped the face of the city lord of Huashi City.

Syllable!

The city lord's face was immediately swollen and he woke up with wine, and he glared angrily at the guard, who had followed him for more than ten years, ready to immediately order his body to be broken into ten thousand pieces.

"City Lord, something is wrong!"

Turning around and seeing the bloody man lying in the hall crying, the city lord was shocked, completely sobered up, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Someone...... Siege!"

"What?!What are you talking about?!" The city lord was shocked, stood up suddenly, flipped the table directly in a panic, and hurriedly ran out of the door, and when he saw the scene outside the door, his face immediately turned pale.

"How so?"

"How can this be?"

"What the hell is going on?"

The lord of the castle couldn't believe what his eyes saw, and kept slapping his face with his palm to make himself sober.

Huashi City, which was still prosperous just now, was full of gunsmoke in the blink of an eye, and the cries became one, and the air was already full of the smell of blood.

In an instant, the world turned into hell.

"How so?!"

The city lord muttered, unable to accept what was happening in front of him.

The drunken man staggered over with a wine glass, put one hand on the city lord's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Come, city lord, I will toast you! Huashi City is the place where we can get rich together!"

"Get out!"

The muscles on the city lord's face trembled, and he roared in rage, suddenly turned, stride, drew the sword at the guard's waist, and turned around and slashed.

Burst!

Blood splattered onto the roof of the beam.

The woman who accompanied the wine screamed.

"Beat the drums! All the guards are assembled! All the caravan guards are unconditionally obeyed by the transfer! All the people in the city who can move, all assemble!"

After a moment of panic, the city lord finally understood the situation in front of him, and he quickly issued a series of orders, which seemed to be useful, but in fact they were a drop in the bucket.

The so-called army is all happy in restaurants, casinos, and green buildings at this time, so how can they have the leisure to pull out the knife on their waists. When they also realize that there is killing all around them, they will only run for their lives like a headless fly.

In just half a moment, Huashi City became a sea of fire, with corpses all over the field, bleeding and drifting.

The city lord of Huashi City desperately fled eastward, and the death battle of his guards only won him an extra life to escape a hundred miles. Turning back to see the iron knight catching up, the city lord fell to the ground in terror, and the box in his arms fell open, and the priceless treasures were scattered inside.

The iron cavalry chased after him, and the white swords flashed through the yellow sand to show death.

"Don't kill me, these treasures are all for you!

"Please don't kill me, I know a treasure! enough to fight the enemy! As long as you don't kill me, I'll tell you at once!"

The knife shines in the sun.

"You can't kill me! I'm a Ming Qipin official! Killing me is tantamount to declaring war on the Ming Dynasty, you can't ......"

Brush!

Hot blood poured onto the yellow sand and quickly seeped into the ground.

The Iron Rider snatched up the treasures on the ground and cheered back to Flower Stone City.

In less than a moment, Huashi City, a major commercial and trade center in the west of the Ming Dynasty, was completely destroyed!

——

The rain in Tiandu weakened a little at dawn, but it still did not stop, so that the sky was still dark.

"Young master, shall we go?" Hu Ran got up early today, stuttered wontons with Ning Du in the alley, and prepared to go to the Shenji Barracks together. Today's battle between Ning Du and Li Xiuxi, she is always uneasy in her heart, she has to watch it with her own eyes.

Six Spring Breeze Swords, Hu Ranke has all memorized them.

Ning Du smiled and said, "Okay, let's go." However, when he finished saying this, his face suddenly changed slightly.

"What's the matter, young master. ”

Dong Jinwei, who was wearing a flying brocade suit, came to the mouth of Gualiu Hutong, stared at Ning Du with a dignified murderous aura, and said, "You are Ning Du? ”

"Why, the young master still has to go to the Qingyun test, how can I ...... with you?"

Ning Du glanced at Dong Jinwei, patted Hu Ran's shoulder, walked forward, and said, "Wait for me in the Shenji barracks." ”

"Young master......" Hu Ran chased forward.

"Remember to play the umbrella and don't get wet. Ning Du walked into the rain and walked with Dong Jinwei.

Hu Ran stood on the edge of the wonton shop, stunned, and watched Ning Du's figure disappear at the end of the alley.

"Young master, I'll be waiting for you in the Shenji Barracks. Hu Ran carried the Spring Breeze Sword, laid an umbrella, and went to the Shenji Barracks alone.
