After the two finished changing their clothes, Ping An also specially put on makeup for Murong Yanyu, painting the black spots on her face ugly, after preparation, Ping An took a deep breath, took out a bottle of Ruyi from his arms and held it in his hand, Murong Yanyu looked at Ping An with a nervous expression and smiled slightly, and said in his heart that Yang Ping'an, a genius who is not afraid of heaven and earth, has become an ordinary person because he has no cultivation.

Indeed, if you don't cultivate your body, you don't have any bottom in your heart, and you don't believe it if you don't feel nervous, but it's too dangerous to stay here, so it's better to leave early.

After adjusting for a long time, he moved sideways with Murong and began to look for it, he saw some introductions about Hope City from the books, but the introduction was not very detailed, as if he was avoiding something, just a general description of the location and origin of Hope City, and there was no more specificity.

Fortunately, there was a location, and the two of them walked for more than half an hour before finding their destination, Murong Yanyu looked at the dilapidated town in front of him and pouted slightly: "This is the Hope City you said? I don't think a town is as big as a town, you look at the earthen wall outside, and everyone believes that this is a village." ”

"This is just a place for the exiles, how good do you think it can be, if it weren't for the fear of these people rioting, maybe Hengyuan Country wouldn't have sent someone to take care of this place. The more chaotic and broken it is, the more suitable it is to hide, let's go. Ping An had been prepared for this, the expression on his face did not change, and he walked towards Hope City with Murong.

The closer to the City of Hope, the more Ping An felt the difference between this place and other places, and the difference between this place and other places could be felt from the people around him who were on the road, all of them with low expressions and blank eyes, as if they had lost hope of life.

And there is not even a guard on the periphery of the hope city, maybe the court also knows that these people don't have much money, and even if they collect the city fee, they can't collect much, so they simply save the defenders, so the two of them mixed in the crowd and walked into the city of hope.

There were very few people who spoke along the way, and everyone seemed to have become mute, bowing their heads without saying a word, and there was no joy at all, except for some children who looked at the crooked three big characters of Hope City on the earthen wall and jumped up excitedly, maybe their elders told them that as long as they came to Hope City, they would not be far from Shenwu Kingdom.

Ping An looked at the people on the march with some sadness, and thought to himself, after the battle they had experienced before, I am afraid that the Shenwu Kingdom had already strengthened its vigilance, and the people of the Shenwu Kingdom had a very bad impression of the people of Hengyuan Country, I am afraid that these people would be killed on the spot by the border defenders of the Shenwu Kingdom as soon as they arrived at the border.

It's just that I pity these children, they are innocent, Murong is also uncomfortable in his heart, women are emotional, but the two of them are not saints, they are just poor people who have taken refuge here, and they can only send blessings to them in their hearts.

After entering the city, Ping An found that the city was not as dilapidated as it looked from the outside, although it was not as good as the naturalized ordinary towns of Shenwu, but in terms of the border, it was not badly built.

Restaurants for eating, restaurants are lined up on both sides of the main street, many Qinglou Chu restaurants are soliciting business, as well as shops for buying and selling houses, pawnshops, rice shops, grain and oil stores, etc., everything is available.

In addition to the main street, there are also many small shops on the street, and business here is even better than the main street every morning, and many people come here to do business, and it looks even more prosperous than many towns in the country of Jinmu.

Before they had gone far into the main street, they saw a plainly dressed woman kneeling in front of the two officials patrolling the street, crying and begging for something.

Murong Yanyu walked over curiously, Ping An wanted to pull her back, but she was a step too slow, Murong had already walked over, Ping An sighed and walked behind Murong when he saw this.

When the two of them got closer, they heard what the woman was saying, and it turned out that her child had been lost, and they wanted the officials to help find it.

But after hearing this, the official obviously didn't want to care, kicked the woman kneeling on the ground away, and scolded impatiently: "We are so busy every day, how can we have time to care about your little thing, you go directly to the yamen for the record, and wait for the notice." With that, the two officials turned and left.

Murong Yanyu wanted to help the woman up after seeing it, but Ping'an directly stopped her and shook his head at her, and said in a low voice: "Let's hide now, try to attract as little attention as possible, let's go." ”

Murong Yanyu hesitated, nodded slightly, and walked towards the main street with Ping'an, along the way, Ping'an saw what is called chaos, the Qinglou girl was dressed in revealing clothes, her eyes were full of spring, she stood on the street to solicit customers, the door of the casino was open, and from the inside, you could see many people around a table holding silver coins and shouting something.

The most special thing is a place where I forget my worries, what is it doing here, and I haven't understood it for a long time.

He was attracted by the fragrance here, the aroma here is very special, faint and very good, like the fragrance of flowers and plants after being stained with dew in the early morning, and the smell is shocking.

But the strange thing is that everyone who came out of here looked very tired, as if they hadn't slept for several days, their eyes were dark, their eyes were dull, and they walked swayingly.

Ping'an didn't know what this place was for, but Murong Yanyu knew that she could guess it just by the aroma coming from outside.

After all, this thing was once popular among the upper classes of various countries for a while, and although it was now banned in every country, she was so impressed by this thing that she didn't expect that someone would blatantly open the door to do this kind of business here.

She looked at Ping'an puzzled for a long time, patted him funny and asked, "You don't know what you're doing here?" "I don't know. Ping An shook his head honestly.

Murong Yanyu smiled proudly when he saw this, and said teasingly: "This is not a good place, although it is called the Forgetting Worry Pavilion, but the work is not glorious. ”

Ping An didn't show surprise after hearing this, he saw the listless appearance of the people who came out of the Forget Worry Pavilion and guessed that there was something wrong here.

Murong Yanyu didn't look surprised at all when he saw Ping'an, and asked in disappointment, "Do you know the Bliss Grass?"

"I know, this thing is not a good thing, it ......." Ping'an replied casually, but before he finished speaking, he was stunned in place, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said seriously: "Stay away from here in the future, I dare to guarantee that this Forget Worry Pavilion is opened here by other countries, let's go." ”

He was too familiar with herbs, Murong mentioned it a little, and he remembered this thing, Bliss Grass, a famous plant, this grass has no other effect, only the same, through processing, when drying this grass, smoke from this grass wafts out, so that the cultivator has hallucinations, but this grass is different from Ruyisan, Ruyisan is an illusion that makes people fearful, and the smoker can guess that this thing is poisonous after waking up, but smoking Bliss grass can make people have beautiful illusions, and it is okay to be an emperor in the illusion.

At the beginning, many high-level countries smoked this grass, by using this substance to relieve pressure, but the side effects of this grass are too great, every time you smoke the musculoskeletal body will shrink a point, although the degree of atrophy each time is very small and extremely difficult to detect, but the extremely difficult to restrain the sense of dependence of this thing, so that all the people who smoke it can't stop, just like that, a small grass, the high-level of several major countries almost wiped out, and when these bigwigs reacted, the body was already very bad.

One of the most widespread legends is that a battlefield realm general of the Ancestral Kingdom always smoked this grass, and his body was very bad, and during a war, he was beaten by a middle-level war saint of the Nine Holy Countries, and in the end he didn't even run away, and was directly killed by the middle-level war saint at the border.

For a while, all countries reacted and listed Bliss as a banned medicine and strictly forbidden.

But it's too late, there are too many people who smoke this grass in the country, coupled with the terrible addiction of this grass, so that several major countries have a lot of problems in the country, smuggling, rebellion abounds, so that the royal family of several empires is busy, and the national strength continues to regress, after all, there are also many people in their royal family who smoke this thing.

Among them, the Nine Saints Kingdom rose because there were few people in the country, so when other countries were busy with the matter of the Bliss Grass, the Nine Saints rose and surpassed the Shenwu Kingdom to become the second largest country in one fell swoop.

All the countries thought that it was the Nine Holy Kingdoms that did it, but because there was no evidence, they could only pinch their noses and admit it. After all, they had already damaged the country's vitality because of their control of this thing, and they had no power to start a war at all, so they could only watch the rise of the Nine Sages.
