Three days passed in a hurry, along the way, in addition to the two cities of Yingshui and Youyue for a while, the painting boat was slowly moving forward on the Huai River, this morning, the dawn of the fog has not completely dispersed, in the blurred morning light, finally ushered in a huge and loud giant wharf far away. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking back, it is a giant city that seems to be out of sight, and the big three characters of Ru'an County are engraved on a copper-gold plaque, which is shining in the sun. Chen Guyu and the others all walked out of the room, and as the painting boat gradually approached the shore, they stepped into the center of the entire county, such as Anjun City.

The wharf is very large and lively, even if it is still early in the morning, there are still a lot of workers busy in it, there are merchant ships from all over the country, there are also poets who have admired the famous places of Ru'an for a long time, of course, because of this special time point, the most are from all directions of the county to the school painting boat. Most of them were a division commander and the disciples who were still young behind him, walking down from the painting boat, the division commander indifferently went through the docking procedures for the next few days, while the disciples looked up at the majestic giant city in front of them with curious faces, for most people, this was the first time they had left their hometown.

Chen Guyu and they are the same, the lord of the Liu Mansion has already gone to the dock to handle affairs, Lin Zeng and Yan Hefeng looked at everything around curiously, they thought that Ninghai City was already very big, until they saw the outline of this Ru'an County, the gray-black and full of vicissitudes of the city wall, the copper-colored city gate as high as dozens of zhang, every scene shocked their hearts, and for the first time gave birth to expectations for the future, I should belong here, how big the world is, I should not be in that small Ninghai City.

Chen Guyu and Luo Qianqian didn't feel anything, one was naturally cold, the other was naturally dismissive, the two were far apart, since that day, Chen Guyu had stayed away from this terrible girl.

The time is approaching June, early summer is coming, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, on the docks, most of the workers are bare-armed, making a loud voice, and the teenagers and girls of the school are also changing into school-specific clothes, in the next few days, they will fight on behalf of their hometown, such martial arts, on the one hand, for their own future, but also tend to connect the hometown city, the two have always been inseparable.

The costume of Ninghai Academy is not very special, it belongs to the hidden in the crowd and can no longer be found, wearing a red power suit, with a small warship on the chest, which is a symbol that belongs to Ninghai City. In the history of Ninghai City, there used to be an ocean, and in order to survive, human beings built hard warships, fought against nature, and finally built this historic city. Ninghai is the name of the ocean, and it is also the name of the warship, symbolizing the strength and unyielding and uncompromising.

Because I just arrived in Ru'an County today, I still need to go to the government to register for the list, so at the request of the lord of Liu's mansion, everyone changed into clothes, and in the next few days, as long as there is nothing to do, they can still change back into civilian clothes.

Soon after, the lord of the Liu Mansion came out, rented a carriage, and led the four of them to the registration place.

Over the years, the county's martial arts conference is co-sponsored by the general's mansion and the county guard's office, which almost involves the upper echelons of the entire Ru'an County, so with the arrival of the date, the patrol of Ru'an County is also much stricter, all the way, in the densely populated streets and alleys, you can see the soldiers coming and going, holding halberds, majestic and solemn.

The place of registration is a mansion in the east of Ru'an County, because Ru'an County is too huge, and there are hundreds of subordinate cities, so it will definitely be a time-consuming and labor-intensive thing to gather these schools together to compete, and now it is a war year, in order to save this money, the county guard will divide the military performance into four regions, depending on the direction, because Ninghai City is located in the east of the county, so it is divided into the eastern district. When Chen Guyu and the others arrived, they happened to see the people from the Iron Sword Academy walking out of the mansion.

The Iron Sword Academy came from the Iron Sword City, which was hundreds of miles away from Ninghai City, and the mansion master's surname was Tian, and he also brought four disciples, one of whom was the one Chen Guyu knew, Li Xiangqian, the son of the Ninghai City City Lord's Mansion.

The lord of Tianfu naturally saw them, and walked over and took the lead in speaking: "It turns out that Lao Liu has arrived, haha, how are you preparing this year?"

Mansion Master Liu didn't seem to have a very good relationship with this person, so he snorted coldly and ignored him, but the Mansion Master of Natian didn't think it was a pestle at all, he still smiled and beckoned back.

"Come, forward, I have seen Mansion Master Liu and all the junior brothers and sisters. ”

"Yes. ”

Li Qianqian walked out and saluted lightly: "Lord Liu, and everyone, meet again, it seems that we are still destined, and we can meet in this county town thousands of miles away, well, I hope that we can go back together at that time, instead of you leaving early." Also, Gongzi Chen, I'm looking forward to fighting you this time. ”

Hearing that Li Xiangqian seemed to be cursing Ninghai Academy for going out early, several people's faces changed, Yan Hefeng and Lin Zeng didn't dare to speak at the moment, although they represented the dignity of Ninghai Academy at the moment, but this person in front of them was the future controller of Ninghai City, how could they dare to refute or even contradict him.

Chen Guyu didn't feel like this, and nodded lightly: "I must ask for advice when the time comes." ”

"Haha. ”

The Lord of the Tian Mansion had a happy face and left with his disciples, while the Lord of the Liu Mansion was pale, and turned around and solemnly admonished everyone: "This smiling tiger, you must be careful when you meet it in the future!"

Seeing that Mansion Master Liu had a feeling of wanting to speak and stopping, Chen Guyu asked, "Mansion Master, is there anything else?"

"Alas, that's it, since I'm here, I'd better say one more thing, Li Xiangqian used to be actually from our Ninghai Academy, you shouldn't know. ”

Everyone shook their heads, in fact, they also had questions in their hearts, since Li Xiangqian was the son of the city lord, why would he go to the academy in other cities, how could he be comfortable with his own family if he was not familiar with the life there, and as a cultivator, what he cared about the most was resources, with his identity in Ninghai City, the resources of the academy were not for him to enjoy?

Mansion Master Liu sighed: "There is actually part of my reason for this matter, alas, it is all because I don't know him." At the beginning, I recruited him into the school to temper him, and I didn't give him too much preferential treatment, after all, the sword blade was sharpened, and what he needed most for a greenhouse flower was not resources and care, but independent development, but what I didn't expect was that this incident made him resentful of me, I didn't pay attention to it, and finally let the people from the Iron Sword Academy dig him up, which also indirectly led to a grudge between our two schools since then. ”

Chen Guyu was silent, but he remembered what happened when the Lord of the Liu Mansion recruited him before, it turned out that he had been bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope. However, in Chen Guyu's opinion, there is nothing wrong with the actions of the lord of Liu's mansion, and the incident that happened after digging the foot of the wall was just an unexpected accident, but in this way, I am afraid that Li Xiangqian's character is very problematic, the pride of the sky seems to be high, but in fact, this kind of pride is also the most prone to degeneration. Moreover, as the young city lord of Ninghai City, for a trivial matter at that time, he actually hoped that Ninghai Academy would be eliminated early, it was really unimaginable, if this person sat on the position of Ninghai City Lord in the future, it would not be a blessing for Ninghai.

Mansion Lord Liu continued: "Although Li Xiangqian is the son of the City Lord of Ninghai City, I still have to say a word here, if you meet him, don't leave your hand, his talent and strength are terrifying, he will definitely not leave your hand on you." Especially shallow, Ah Yu, you have to be very careful, Ah Yu, he still doesn't seem to let go of the last thing, alas, so open......-minded."

"Yes. ”

Chen Guyu nodded lightly, indicating that he knew.

After finishing speaking, several people entered the mansion to register, as a person from the local school, the county guard has arranged food and lodging, all the inns around have been rented, under the leadership of the staff, they arrived at an inn called Fang Shang, one room per person, this is also a very good place for Ru'an County, in terms of preparation, it is completely impossible to find out.

After entering the Housing Shang Inn, the Lord of the Liu Mansion announced that he was free to move, and after taking the boat for so many days, if he was tired, he could go to rest, and if he felt that he was still insufficient, he could also meditate and cultivate, of course, in the eyes of the Lord of the Liu Mansion, these disciples still couldn't bear the loneliness, after all, it was the first time to come to the county town of a county, how could they not see the peerless prosperity of the center of the next county?

After changing into casual clothes in the house, Chen Guyu left the inn and slowly infiltrated the crowd. Before coming, he promised Sheng'er that he would bring her some gifts back, and this matter was even higher than the martial arts conference in Chen Guyu's heart, so he naturally had to do it first.

"Hey, this beaded flower is good?"

Soon after, Chen Guyu stopped in front of a small stall, and in the conversation with passers-by, Chen Guyu knew that this was already a famous trading area in Ninghai City, where many shops and restaurants gathered, and it was also the place with the most people on weekdays.

The owner of the stall was a girl who looked seventeen or eighteen years old, with an ordinary appearance, wearing a plain dress, and when she saw Chen Guyu stop, she hurriedly walked over and said, "What does this son want?"

"Well, is that pearl flower pink?"

Chen Guyu pointed forward, although the bead flower style was very good, but Chen Guyu knew that Sheng'er preferred pink, if there was, it was definitely a good choice to buy it as a gift.

"Yes, there is. ”

The girl said with a smile, took out a pink bead flower with the same style from the package behind her and handed it to Chen Guyu.

Chen Guyu looked at it carefully and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, can you help me pack it?"

"Naturally, Childe wants to give it to his sweetheart, do you need to decorate something, it's free!"

Chen Guyu remembered Sheng'er's lovely smile, and the corners of his mouth rippled with happiness that could not be concealed, but he still smiled and shook his head: "No, thank you." ”

He knew that Sheng'er liked the simple and plain, and those fancy outfits still didn't matter.

"Okay, Childe, take it, your bead flower. ”

The girl handed over a small red box, and Chen Guyu took it: "How much?"

"Fifteen texts. ”

Since entering the academy, there is a subsidy of several taels every day, and unconsciously, Chen Guyu has already become a so-called rich man, so he naturally no longer worries about money, and for him, even if he only has fifteen yuan in his body now, he will not hesitate to take it out.

"Childe walks slowly. ”

Chen Guyu turned around with a smile, and suddenly, a roar like thunder sounded in his ears.

He looked up in confusion, and saw in the street a few black horses appeared in the crowd, and rushed towards it at a speed like a horse race.

For a moment, shouting, scolding, and crying mingled, and the originally orderly street was instantly broken and replaced by a burst of arrogant laughter.

"Get out of here, get out of here!"

"Haha, don't get in the way!"

"Look for death, slut!"

On the horse, there were a few people sitting, due to the distance, Chen Guyu couldn't see clearly, but he also understood that the people who could act arbitrarily in this place were either the sons of wealthy families or the people of the public family, anyway, they were all iron plates, and not anyone could kick them. Chen Guyu frowned, and leaned to the side, not intending to meet them.

If it was before, seeing this kind of thing, Chen Guyu would have rushed forward, just like that night at the Oiran Competition, what he couldn't see the most was this kind of careless behavior, but since marrying Sheng'er, his enthusiasm and impulsiveness have cooled down, or he will never take the initiative to cause trouble, as long as it does not involve his bottom line, he can endure it, and there are many scruples to be afraid of.

Chen Guyu lowered his head, stepped to the side, and mingled with a group of people.

The fierce horse rushed like thunder, and some people could not dodge, and were kicked out directly, and the cries and shouts blended into one, but the people on the horse seemed to enjoy the process, and the leader also shook a slender horsewhip, constantly waving it around.

Many people were unfortunately drawn by him, and the blood instantly tore through the thin skin, and the blood flowed everywhere, but they all lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything.

Suddenly, the whip went towards the stall where Chen Guyu had bought beads before, only to hear a snap, and countless things were scattered on the ground.

The noble boy sighed, and he didn't seem to be very satisfied that he didn't win the lottery this time, so he wanted to trample those small things into pieces to relieve the hatred in his heart.

At this moment, a figure suddenly burst out of the crowd, blocking the hooves of the fierce horse, and spread his hands, as if trying to protect the little things.
