"I've been walking for twenty days, and I don't know what the situation is in Beiyang City. Xu An looked at the not very tall city gate in front of him and said to himself.

The city gate in front of him is naturally not the entrance of Beiyang City, but the city of Yi, which is the capital of Zhao State, Zhao State is a small country, the gate of this city is not tall, but it is a peaceful and peaceful place.

Zhao was sandwiched between the two empires of Wuqing and Beichang, and the residents of the city were more or less influenced by the cultures of the two countries.

"From Yicheng to the north, looking for a fast horse can reach the Beichang border in almost two days, and from the border to the north ten days can reach Beiyang City. Li Wusheng said as he counted the distance behind Xu An.

"You monk is really verbose, just say that you can go to Beiyang City on the 12th. Xu An said impatiently.

That's pretty much what it means. Li Wusheng thought carefully and returned.

In the past 20 days, except for the first day, he has not encountered any obstacles, although Xu An did not relax his vigilance, but felt that it was more dangerous, he was more and more sure that those people were all gathered together, he didn't know how many people were waiting for him, he only knew that the number of people would not be small, and the strength would not be weak, so he could only walk the distance from Yicheng to Beiyang City by himself.

"You stay in the city, and I will return to the capital by myself. Xu An said.

"Well, that's what I mean, the son I met when I came here is in this city, let's go and rest. Li Wusheng nodded and said, he didn't want to accompany Xu An to go on an adventure.

It was already past noon, and the two were still hungry, and they easily found a mansion after Li Wusheng's lead.

The mansion in front of him is very magnificent, even if it is placed in the big cities of Beiyang City or Shangwu City, it can be regarded as a rich or expensive existence.

"General's Mansion, it is said that this general was just an ordinary groom in the military camp more than ten years ago, but he suddenly rose all the way to become a celebrity in the eyes of King Zhao today, the general of Zhao State. Your monk's vision is not bad, but do people like you?" Xu An said, looking at the plaque on the door.

"When I came, I stayed here for a few days, and this week's second son is quite good. Li Wusheng said proudly.

"There are a total of three sons in this general's mansion in Yicheng, the eldest son Zhou Ping has a very high martial arts attainment, and the third prince Zhou Yang was praised by King Zhao as a talent who has passed through the heavens and latitudes, as for this Tuesday son. Xu An said with his right hand pinching his chin.

"How is Childe on Tuesday?" asked Li Wusheng.

"It is said that this Tuesday Childe is extremely mediocre, much worse than the other two Sons. Xu An said.

"I've seen the master. The people outside the door saw the two of them salute and asked.

"I've seen the donor, the poor monk came to visit the son of Tuesday, can you make it convenient. Li Wusheng said with a serious salute.

"Second son? There seems to be a second son in our general's mansion, and the villain went to take a look. The subordinate was slightly stunned when he heard Li Wusheng's words, and then he realized that there seemed to be such a person in the house.

"It's really low-key, and even the subordinates almost forgot that they still have a second son. Xu An almost laughed out loud when he saw the man's reaction, and when Gongzi regarded it as a talent, he was also a talent.

It took a long time for the subordinate to lead a handsome boy out of the mansion, and it seemed that it was not easy to find this Tuesday boy.

Tuesday's son's dress is also unusually low-key, and it looks incompatible with the entire luxurious General's Mansion, if it weren't for someone to lead the way, I'm afraid that no one would be able to recognize this young man as the second son of the General's Mansion.

"I've seen Master Wusheng. Childe asked on Tuesday.

"Don't be polite on Tuesday, the poor monk and his friends are passing by here, and want to stay here for one night, can you ask the second son to make it convenient. Li Wusheng said.

"Since it is a friend of the master, it is naturally convenient, and in the next week, I don't know what to call the son. Zhou Rong looked at Xu An and asked.

"Xu An. Xu An replied lazily.

"Xu An's surname is Brother Xu, and the name Brother Xu is very similar to a person. Zhou Rong was stunned for a moment when he heard Xu An's words, and then said.

"Why don't you say that his name is similar to mine?

"Naturally, it's very remarkable, but Brother Xu must not be very human, so he is rude. Zhou Rong smiled and apologized.

"So you often go to Beiyang City?" Xu An then asked.

"I don't often go out and about on weekdays, I've just heard of it, but why does Brother Xu know that the person I'm talking about is in Beiyang City?" Zhou Rong asked.

"I often hear people say that my name is very similar to a person in Beiyang City, so this time I want to meet that person and see if we both look the same. Xu An returned.

"Brother Xu, don't blame, there is no malice in Xia, but that person should not be in Beiyang City now, and Brother Xu is afraid that he will not be able to see him even if he goes. Zhou Rong saluted again.

"Oh, not necessarily, maybe I'll go to Beiyang City and the guy will come back. Xu An chuckled and said.

"That week, Rong was here to wish Brother Xu good luck. Zhou Rong laughed when he heard Xu An's words.

"Master, Brother Xu, there is an invitation inside. Zhou Rong said as he led the way in front.

The three of them entered the Zhou Mansion, and the mansion was still full of magnanimity, living in such a mansion, if you want to say that the general is not a corrupt official, I am afraid that no one will believe it, Li Wusheng looked at the various ornaments in the courtyard and his eyes lit up.

"The two of you haven't eaten yet, I'll let the next person go and prepare, the master is not afraid of meat, the three of us should drink it." Zhou Rong took the two to the guest room and said.

"Wine?" Xu An said with a frown.

"Brother Xu is not good at drinking?" Zhou Rong asked.

Xu An really hadn't drunk much, but at this time he really wanted to try it.

"It's okay to drink it once. Xu An said.

"Brother Xu is so courageous. ”

"There is Lao Ergongzi. Li Wusheng saluted and thanked him.

After a while, the meal was ready, and the three of them pushed the cups and changed the lamps.

I drank around a table of food until late at night, and I don't know how many jars of wine I drank.

Xu An walked out with a wine jug and staggered, looked at the bright moon outside, and suddenly felt that wine was really a good thing, raised the wine jug and took a sip, savored it and said, "This thing is more interesting than soup." ”

Perhaps because wine can drive away the cold, Xu An is no longer too cold at the moment, picked up the wine jug and jumped on the roof, as if he wanted to get closer to the bright moon, lying there and taking another sip and saying: "Have fun, have fun, and wander around the sea and can't climb." ”

"Traveling thousands of miles, I was shocked, but I didn't get the cloud sail, and I didn't have a safe body. Zhou Rong also walked out of the house with a wine jug at some point, and Xu An, who was standing in the courtyard looking at the roof, said with a smile.

"Do you know who I am?" Xu An was stunned for a moment when he heard Zhou Rongjie's second sentence, and then asked with a strong spirit.

Traveling thousands of miles, I was shocked, I didn't get Yunfan, and I didn't have a safe body, Zhou Rong's second half of the sentence was completely talking about Xu An's experience.

"Zhou Rong has seen His Royal Highness King Hui'an, His Royal Highness's road back to the capital is not smooth, and he asks His Highness to take care all the way. Zhou Rong stood in the courtyard and saluted.

"King Hui'an, are you sure you're calling me?" King Hui'an is the king of which country?" Xu An was slightly stunned when he heard King Hui'an in Zhou Rong's mouth, and then asked.

"Beichang Empire, Xu Shi'an, King of Hui'an. Zhou Rong said with a light smile.

"There is only one king in the Beichang Empire, King Beichang, you recognize the wrong person, I am not the King of Hui'an. Xu An looked up at the sky and said.

"In the past, there was indeed only one king of Beichang, but more than two months ago, the eldest prince Xu Shichang succeeded to the throne, so now there is another prince, it is you, His Royal Highness King Hui'an. Zhou Rong continued.

"Joke, can a country have two kings? You say that I am the king of Hui'an, then let me ask you, do I have a fief?" Xu An still lay there and said lightly.

"Your Highness naturally has a fief. ”

"Where?"

"Beichang. ”

"Since you say that I am the King of Hui'an in Beichang, then the fief is naturally in Beichang, and this kind of foolish words can be said?" Xu An said with a chuckle after taking another sip of wine.

"Your Highness may have misheard, what you are saying below is not that His Highness's fief is in the Beichang Empire, but that the Beichang Empire is His Highness's fief. Zhou Rong bowed and said.

"The whole country?" Xu An asked, looking sideways at Zhou Rong in the courtyard.

"The whole country. ”

Xu An didn't reply again, but sniffed the flask close to his nose, and then frowned slightly.

"My pot of wine is supposed to be real, and you stole a fake wine?"

After speaking, Xu An threw the wine jug towards Zhou Rong, then pointed to the wine jug and beckoned his hand to signal him to return the wine jug.

Zhou Rong took the wine jug, not angry, but smiled slightly, jumped on the roof and sat next to Xu An, and handed the wine jug with both hands.

"You are stronger than the eldest prince, and you are smarter than the third prince. The mansion is so magnanimous, I can probably know what kind of person the general is, such a luxurious mansion has not been found out by King Zhao, this general's mansion can have today, it must be your credit, how does it feel to sit behind the scenes?"

Xu An took the wine jug handed over by Zhou Rong and shook it, and found that all the wine in it had been spilled, so he threw it down casually.

"When I was six years old, I started looking at flowers and movies, and I have understood a lot since then. Zhou Rong took out another pot of wine from his sleeve and handed it to Xu An and said with a smile.

"Got what?"

"Flowers and shadows, where there are flowers, there must be shadows. ”

"Not necessarily, look at where your shadow is. ”

The two of them sat on the roof, and it happened that a cloud drifted over to block the moonlight, and the roof was pitch black, let alone a shadow, and no one could see one clearly.

Zhou Rong didn't reply, and he wasn't embarrassed, but looked up at the sky seriously, and after a long while, the cloud drifted away, and he pointed back and said, "Here." ”

"Flower Shadow Sword Zhou Rong, this name is good. Xu An said.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Hui'an, for the name. Zhou Rong saluted respectfully and said.

"Everyone in the world wants to be that one standout, but you Zhou Rong is only willing to be the shadow of the flower, and the Flower Shadow Sword is worthy of its name, I just said it. Xu An took the flask, took another sip and said.

His Royal Highness King Hui'an praised it. ”

"How did you recognize me?"

"When His Highness said his name, he recognized it. Zhou Rong sat next to Xu An and also took a sip of a wine jug and said.

"What's wrong with what I'm saying?"

"There are three people in this world, whose names are known to everyone and everyone. The first is the strongest of the older generation, and the cultivation record he has set is still unmatched to this day, this person is the previous dean of the Spirit Academy, known to the world as Dean He for three years. The second is that the previous generation chose to find a unique way to use the sword like a spirit, thus breaking the rules of this world that spiritual power is respected, and he is the Sword Saint. There is also the strongest person in our generation, and he is even evaluated by the world as the next three years, and that person is Xu Shi'an. ”

"No matter who hears such three people, they will be admired and ashamed, but Brother Xu is full of disdain when he hears the three words Xu Shi'an, and then through your name, you can naturally think that you are him. Zhou Rong continued.

"In the next three years, it seems that the world wants me to disappear from this world suddenly. ”
