With my son Xiao Mingshu

"Lord of the city, there are thirty-four people who entered the door yesterday, and all these people were spit out by the door at the end of the day."

Standing in the hall, he was still dressed in a lake blue dress, with a frost-colored fur cloak draped over it, and the fur of the cloak was still stained with some ice and snow, and at first glance he knew that he had just returned from the outside.

"Oh, no one can enter the cave this time?" Chi Xiaoming sat high on a soft couch, holding his chin lazily with one hand, and asked with great interest, "Then the young man who destroyed my city gate yesterday was captured?"

"The city lord, that young man in Xuanyi is not ordinary, but be careful!" Mu Jiang, who was standing on the other side, reminded him.

Yesterday, he was beaten by Chi Xiaoming and was covered in injuries, and it was a little unbearable to resist the beating with rough skin and thick flesh. Every time Chi Xiao Ming's anger disappeared, he would still order the pharmacist to send the ointment to Mu Jiang by mistake, at least to ensure that in addition to looking a little miserable, he would not be injured. That's why Mu Jiang can stand on top of this hall alive.

Outsiders don't know about the stubble of medicine, after all, the eleven soldiers before Mu Jiangcuo took office have never received this kind of treatment, and they are only considered to be Mu Jiangcuo's natural muscles and bones, and he is more resistant to fighting.

"Hmm," Chi Xiaoming didn't say anything else, just nodded. When you are in a bad mood, you are angry, but how can someone who can destroy the city gate with one blow be an ordinary character?

The city was built very early, and the city records that can be found can be traced back to before the Queen of Taize took power, and the earliest city lord was named Chi Moyang, who is said to be a Taoist with extremely high cultivation. At that time, in order to wait for the door to open for five weeks, he built this strange north city in the deep mountains, but he waited in the city for a lifetime, until he died, and he did not wait for the door to open, and then the children of the Chi clan succeeded to the position of the city lord, while waiting for the door to open for five weeks, while sheltering all the people who were looking for the door of the five weeks, and waited for it from generation to generation.

It is recorded in the city chronicles that there was a city lord who finally waited for the door hole to open, and he was really lucky to enter the real door hole, and everyone in the city was happy, but after that, the city lord was like the world evaporated, and there was no news. Hundreds of years later, he returned to the city unkempt. Regardless of anyone's persuasion, he went alone to dig stones from the cave in the back mountain, carried them back, and built this city gate tower with the strength of one person. He doesn't talk to anyone, just works silently alone. And when the gate was built, he stood at it, neither eating nor drinking, and no one should be silent when he asked him.

At that time, the lord of the city was his son, and he was also a filial man, and the old lord stood on the gatehouse, and he accompanied him at the door.

At that time, the older generation of residents of the city would also come to accompany them at sunrise and sunset for an hour.

This old city lord's stop is a hundred years.

After a hundred years of cold, when the wind and snow are heavy, it is like a snowman frozen on the gatehouse, standing tall and immovable.

A hundred years is a lifetime for ordinary people, the ancestors of the Chi family are cultivators, and their children and grandchildren have inherited the mantle, that is, the life span is much longer than that of ordinary people.

This is more than a hundred years, the old city lord can afford it, and the city lord will naturally accompany it.

One day, the figure on the gatehouse shook and finally fell.

That night, the old lord of the city called a meeting of the people of the city, and said only one sentence:

All the people in the city are not allowed to re-enter the Five Weeks Gate, and if anyone is reluctant, please leave.

Many people living in the city came to the city of Yibei for the opportunity of the Five Weeks Gate, but more often because their ancestors came here to seek the Tao without success, so they lived here.

Most of the cultivators were arrogant,,, so that night, many people went out of the city with scolding, and more ordinary people chose to stay, most of them did not have much cultivation, and lived for more than 100 years, just to live in peace and stability, and no longer hope for a night of glory.

That night, a star fell and smashed into the clearing in the center of the city, and the whole city was covered by a huge barrier, and everyone was shocked and lost their minds when the star landed, and all fainted.

Three days later, people woke up one after another, and the whole city gathered in the streets as if they were crazy. Except for the children, the people of the entire North City have all returned to their youthful appearance, and the old lady on the North Street has also returned to the appearance of twenty-eight years.

All the people who gave up the idea of five weeks were given a very long life, and this was the reward given to them by the old city lord.

An extremely long lifespan does not mean that you will not grow old or die, but this is already grateful to the old city lord.

At that time, the lord of the city was an extremely filial man, and the old lord set this rule without raising any objections. He offered to relinquish the position of lord of the city to his father, but was politely refused.

One day, the old lord left suddenly, leaving only a letter to be placed next to the lord's pillow, and he did not know where he went.

Since then, the castle lord's temperament has become impatient.

"City Lord," said the fan, arching his hand, "what the fanxin said is that all the people who were recorded have returned, and there are two people who have not been registered, and one of them is the young man in Xuanyi who entered the cave before the door was closed. ”

"The two of you?" Chi Xiaoming put away his laziness, put his hands on his legs, squinted dangerously, and asked Fanxin, "That means that there is another person who has also gone in?"

"There was also a woman in plain clothes, and the door was closed for three hours and suddenly opened, and the woman was drawn into the hole," said Mixin.

"Woman?plain clothes?"

"Exactly," said the fan, after a pause, "the one you met at the market the day before." ”

"What?!"

In a quiet and elegant house, Mu Jiang staggered off the armor he wore on duty, sat naked at the warm table, and his face was covered with bruises. Standing behind him, it was the cold and frosty fascination in the hall who carefully drugged him, frowning lightly, and gently rubbing the medicine for Mu Jiang with his fingertips.

After the back was dealt with, he asked Mu Jiang to turn around and rub the medicine on his face, pursed his lips tightly, and said nothing.

"What's wrong with you, do you feel sorry for me?" Mu Jiang looked displeased when he saw the fan, and grinned haha, "You feel sorry for me, I haven't seen you plead for me, you see, how miserable~"

Fanxin still didn't speak, his eyelashes drooped slightly, and the movements in his hands were softer.

"Daughter-in-law, I'm fine, this little injury will be gone tomorrow, don't worry~" Mu Jiang mistakenly saw her sulking like this, reached out and hugged her waist, put her cheek on it, and rubbed it coquettishly.

"Don't move," Fan Xin just said softly, his voice was soft, he touched his hair, his eyes were full of tenderness, and said, "The medicine you just wiped, don't rub it again,"

"I don't, you are reluctant to talk about me only when you take medicine, I would rather be beaten by the city lord every day, my daughter-in-law can be so gentle every day~" Mu Jiang was childish like a child.

"Okay, go and lie down on the couch, I'm going to deal with the city gate, and I'll come back to you in the evening." Fanxin patted him and said helplessly.

"Well, go early and come back early~" Mu Jiang obediently let go of his hand, put on his underwear, climbed to the couch and lay down, and pressed the silk quilt tightly for him, printed a kiss on his forehead, and then took the cloak and hurriedly went out.

Yibei Shuangyi is a husband and wife, who have followed Chi Xiaoming for many years, who are calm and wise, intellectually and strategically, born with the talent of Xiangguo, who handles affairs without leakage, is the most trusted person of Chi Xiaoming, and has absolute prestige in the city. Compared with the fascination, Mu Jiangcuo is a little mediocre, but fortunately, he is loyal and a fanciful sweetheart, so Chi Xiaoming reused him, gave him an identity that matched the fanxin, and promised them a family affair.

Fanxin is always an indifferent ice beauty in front of people, and only when she returns home will the shell be removed, showing her gentle side like a little woman in Mujiang. After many years of marriage, they have no heirs, the reason is very simple, after the people of Yibei City have a very long lifespan, there is a condition for having children, that is, women must divide half of their life expectancy with their young sons, and if they have children, they will have to divide the remaining life expectancy by half. Mu Jiang was reluctant to do this, that is, he resolutely did not give birth to children, as long as he had a wife by his side, it was enough.

Of course, even if Mu Jiang wanted to have an heir, Chi Xiaoming would not agree.

It is also because of this special situation that Yuelou will be allowed to exist in the North City. Yuelou took in many women from outside the city, in addition to accompanying wine and performing arts, there will also be people who will be willing to lend their belly to give birth to children for men in the city, and the reward is to share their 100-year life.

That's right, in this Alien North City, lifespan can be traded.

Chi Xiao Ming sat on the soft couch with a heavy heart, and a yellowed letter paper was spread out in his hand.

"My son Xiao Ming, for his father's fortunate destiny to enter the five-week gate, seeing that the cave is very sinister, hereby warned, it is strictly forbidden for the descendants of the Chi family and the people in the city to enter the cave again, if there is a violation, take back the grace of the door hole, and expel him from the city. ”

"For my father to explore the realm of the five weeks of the door, headless and no continuation of the passage in the cave detour for nearly a hundred years, and finally found a cave, there is a python fairy living in the cave, the python fairy did not have too much difficulty, only told the father not to disturb his practice, he went to take a piece of spar at the top of the cave and left, I took the brightest piece of crimson spar and left. Later, he met the two great immortals of Vermilion Bird Xuanwu in two other caves, and he also got the brightest spar in the cave and left. ”

"The last resident of the cave was a man in black, he asked me to show him the spar I had obtained, and after chuckling, he gave him a spar with a dull color and fish white, and after a few simple words, he opened a stone door to send me away, and said good luck to me before leaving. ”

"After searching the Sifang Cave, the stone gate led me into a dim cave, standing on a stone platform, surrounded by nothingness, and there was no way out. According to the man in black, after placing the spars, the surrounding lights suddenly brightened, and the spars in the southeast, north, south, and north were all shattered, and with the fragmentation of the spars, the boundary of the land where I was located also collapsed, leaving only the remnants of the fish-white stone in the west of the square, and I stood on the boundary of the land and saved my life. ”

"No one is welcome to enter the Gate Cave for Five Weeks, and if you don't get that creation, you will die in vain, and your children and grandchildren will be punished by the Gate. ”

"The creation that the door hole gave me is that if all the people in the city of the other north have no idea of trespassing for five weeks in their hearts, they can get more than ten times more lifespan, and this creation also has a punishment as a premise, that is, to stand for my father in the biggest place in the city and suffer a hundred years of lonely cold, and must not retreat, otherwise all the people in the city will not die well!"

"And the back door hole also agreed to the father's additional request, the people in the city will each have a life span and the heirs of the red family every year, if the city in the north is not destroyed, you will not be destroyed! Don't blame the father for being selfish. ”

"May my son be happy and well, and go out for my father's journey,

Don't worry about it. ”
