The lobby was quiet for a while.

Mo said that all the children of the family here were confused, even if they were girls, "What is tinder?" she asked with interest.

This stumped Si Wu, and the elderly god and witch also shook his head, "What kind of magic weapon is the fire has long been lost. ”

Even the legend of the fire has been lost, and there are only a few records of it in the ancient books of the Witch Courtyard or the Immortal Mountain.

"Most of the legends about the fire are related to the origin of the human race. The old priest remembered a little.

According to legend, there are three kinds of fire, which exist in the hands of the three ancient human races of the Central Plains, the Eastern Wilderness and the Southern Wilderness.

According to legend, it was with the fire in their hands that the three ancient human races drove away the giants everywhere, thus winning a place for themselves to survive in the Great Wilderness.

It's just that with the spread of the three major human races, and the continuous migration during natural disasters and demon disasters, the fire gradually changed and disappeared in the long river of history.

So much so that the current Terrans no longer know about the existence of fire.

The old god glanced at the city lord, "Ordinary fire may not hurt the gods, but if you use fire to create gunpowder, people will have a sharp weapon against the gods." ”

The people of Chang'an City, as the direct descendants of the ancient human race in the Central Plains, should always have the fire in their hands, at least know the whereabouts of the fire, so the gods are jealous.

"Unlike cultivation, these gunpowders can be manipulated easily even by ordinary people, and the rise of the human race will become inevitable. The old god said.

Therefore, the gods let go of their fear of the giants, stood with them, and together set off a sacred war.

After hearing this from the mouth of the witch's house, the girl touched the wine glass in her hand and fell into deep thought.

She doesn't know if there is a fire in Chang'an City, and even if there is, Chang'an has now become a lake, and I am afraid that the fire has already been extinguished.

"What about the fire in the Eastern Wilderness and the Southern Wilderness?" Zhou Baichuan couldn't help but ask curiously.

The fire that is enough to fight the giants, if it is left until now, maybe human beings will no longer have to gather in the city to fear any demons and monsters.

"The fire in the Southern Wilderness is unknown. The old god said sincerely, and Si Wu tugged at the corners of his mouth and nodded approvingly.

"As for the East Wilderness Tinder," he glanced at the girl, "some people say it's extinguished, and some people say that he was snatched away by the King of the East Wilderness." ”

"Wait a minute. Zhao Maiden interrupted him, "The King of the Eastern Wilderness only appeared on the Great Wilderness shortly before the sacred, and at that time the word-making saint had already created words. ”

In other words, if it was really the King of the Eastern Wilderness who snatched the fire, there would be at least a mention of the fire in the records of Taishi City.

However, it is obvious that even Taishi Cheng is afraid that he does not know the existence of fire.

"Legend has it that the shrine where the fire was stored was very close to the sea, but it was later flooded by a tsunami. Si Wu said.

It's good that the King of the Eastern Wilderness appeared very late in the Great Wilderness, but that's because she has been playing in the sea and is tired of coming to the Great Wilderness.

At this time, Yu Sheng walked out with a pot of wine, and everyone stopped the topic and continued to talk about the planning of Yangzhou City in the coming year.

When he heard that Yu Sheng planned to expand the urban area in the southern city and turn the river that connected the sea and the lake into an inner river, Mo said that the four families were also interested.

Everyone talked for a long time, and it was not until they were full of wine and food that they left unsatisfied, and they were very satisfied with the wine and chicken for the rest of their lives.

Yu Sheng also followed his little aunt to the City Lord's Mansion, leaving Ye Zigao and cleaning up the mess in the Star Picking Tower.

Although it was late at night, it was still very lively outside the Star Picking Tower, especially the two giant lamps in front of the Star Picking Tower, which attracted countless people to stop and watch.

The rest of his life has been reduced as much as possible, and the giant lamp compiled by the uncle is still very large, and ordinary people stand next to it only up to the giant's knees.

The Giant's lamp glows softly, illuminating the surroundings.

So the Taoist priest put his rat play below, and was staging the Terran vs. Giant, telling the rat play version of the origin of the year.

The girl looked interesting, so the two of them stopped there, and after buying two sugar gourds, they ate and watched at the same time.

The two giants stand by the lamp, sneering at the giant's weakness in the rat play.

"It's a slurification. "We giants are all warriors, so we are not so vulnerable." ”

He couldn't wait to reach out and slap the table of the rat play flat, but there was a croaking guard beside him, and he was swallowed in at the slightest movement, spit it out, and swallowed it three times in a row.

This is nothing, the most feared is the subsequent punishment of starvation, even if it is leftovers, the ones that come from the rest of his life are delicious, and the bonfire giant does not want to starve.

After watching for a while, when the giants were retreating, Yu Sheng and Zhao Girl left the Star Picking Tower and rushed to the City Lord's Mansion on foot.

There was an endless stream of pedestrians on the road, especially Zhangtai Street, and the fat powder even drowned out the smell of hot food coming from the stalls on both sides.

The wine shops on both sides of the road, the teahouses are hung with lanterns, and the people inside are noisy and lively, and the sound of drinking orders is heard from time to time, and there are drunkards playing crazy.

Yu Sheng even met the three brothers he had met at the inn who had fought in a hurry to pay the bill, and yes, they went to the street again because they were rushing to pay the bill.

There are also children who are carrying lanterns and selling, and they bought two for the rest of their lives, and as soon as they handed over the money, they felt a chill on their foreheads.

He looked up and saw that snowflakes were slowly falling in the dark sky, appearing in the lights and falling on his shoulders.

"It's snowing again. The girl sighed.

"yes, it's snowing. Yu Sheng lowered his head and helped her tidy up her mink fur,

At this time last year, Lao Yu had just slipped away, and he and Badou spent it together in the inn, and the loneliness at that time was pouring like a tide, but now it is very different.

"Yu Gongzi. One person shouted for the rest of his life.

Yu Sheng turned around and saw that Old Man Wen led his family over, he held a piece of paper in his hand, and laughed happily when he saw that it was really Yu Sheng.

"The old man is about to go to find Yu Gongzi. Old Man Wen walked over with a smile and respectfully handed the piece of paper in his hand to Yu Sheng, "This is part of the reward." ”

"If you don't say it, I'll forget it. Yu Sheng patted his head and married the money certificate in Old Man Wen's hand, "You say you're not stupid." ”

"Uh", Old Man Wen didn't know how to answer, so he could only smile awkwardly.

"Childe saved the life of the little girl, how dare you forget this kindness, how can you forget. ”

He cleaned up his mind and said, "But I'm really poor, so I can only pay back my son for the time being." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, just pay it back. Yu Sheng waved his hand, and was just about to put away the money bank voucher, but was snatched by the girl who was one step behind.

"I have also heard about the Wen family's wealth for the treatment of the little girl, and now is a difficult time, so there is no need to pay back the money. The girl handed over the money.

"This..."Old Man Wen was puzzled for a moment.

Miss Zhao continued: "If you don't care, what do you think?"

"The Wen family has been in the brocade business for generations, and although they have sold the industry, they still have experience. Zhao girl waved the voucher, "This money should be used as a partnership for us to do business." ”

Old Man Wen looked at Yu Sheng, in the streets where people came and went and snow fell, he didn't recognize the identity of the girl who stayed quietly behind Yu Sheng for a while.

"Well, I never do such a tiring job as being a housekeeper, I just listen to her. Yu Sheng pointed to the girl.
