Chapter 59: The Wind Rises
A misty drizzle fell in the valley of the twilight clouds, the rain and mist swirled here, the towering distant mountains, the verdant trees, and the trickling streams converged into a river spread out on the surface of a plain lake, and the embellishment of the rain rippled in the distance, and a buffalo stood in the distance and kept beating itself, and the rain slid down its sideburns.
An old man in plain clothes sat in the rain, the rain spread out on its own when it reached his periphery, the old man picked up the wine jug and took a small sip comfortably, slowly lay down, bent his shoulders to support his head, and looked at the old man who was fishing with a bamboo pole below and said, "Old Dusk, I heard that you sent your precious granddaughter to the academy?"
The old man wore a hat on his head, dressed in a robe, sat on a bamboo stool and grabbed the fishing rod with one hand, kept silent, and looked too lazy to take care of the visitor!
The old man was not annoyed and continued to say to himself: "You don't know, that little guy in your family is stirring up trouble in the academy, I estimate that she also has a place in the dragon and phoenix list of the four major colleges this year!"
"You old man is very idle every day, aren't you?" the old man finally raised his head and looked at the old man above the lake with a look of disgust.
The old man put away the flask with a grin, his face ruddy and a win-winning expression.
"If you don't chat with me, you'll make me so panicked! Besides, I haven't seen the little girl for too long, and I've thought a little about it!"
"Let me emphasize to you, that's my granddaughter and not yours, don't think I don't know what the hell you are doing, just those little guys over there, don't think about it in this life. ”
The old man's words poked at the sore spot in the old man's heart, and he said to himself: "These little rabbit cubs are really angry! Sooner or later, labor and management will be angry with them one day." ”
"Okay, okay, I see that you are here to bother me, this fish can't be caught, why don't you accompany you to the next two rounds?"
"Hey, this is good, just wait for your words, look at your grinding and chirping fishing, don't kill me!" The old man stood up casually, stretched his waist, and looked at the sky with infinite emotion: "When you are young, you can look up at the starry sky, and you can pick it with your hand." Now the body is dying, and the sky is unreachable!"
......
On a trade road, a horse-drawn carriage moved slowly, and only one person in the carriage kept talking.
"Let me tell you, that Mu Yu is really suitable for the old man, not joking with you, these are what I saw. Changyan turned on the crazy spit mode, Zong Ming didn't say a word, He Qianjun drove the carriage, Xue Zixin and Ji Qingxi were resting in the carriage, and listened with a sad face on the side in the middle of the night, thinking that this carriage was borrowed from the Chongyang Chamber of Commerce in his own name, and the melancholy twisted heart in his heart trembled, and his second brother also called his name: "The debt is not pressing" I still remember that the steward of the Chongyang Chamber of Commerce saw his expression with a look of disgust that he borrowed less, and he was sold in a daze.
These people are the midnight group that just came out of the Tianao Mountain Range. After Xue Zixin came out of the abyss, after the Ziyun Bamboo brought out from the secret realm to warm up the spiritual origin, the whole person was much better, and her complexion became ruddy, and several people originally considered going back to the academy first to solve the problem of Xue Zixin's spiritual origin before setting off, but she couldn't resist her temperament At present, her mental state has stabilized, and the next task is not dangerous for them now. I thought that there was no mystery in this task, but it turned out that it was only because this kind of magical beast was too rare, so the academy would set this as an S-level mission.
The group was rushing to Cangyuan City, and heard from the Chongyang Chamber of Commerce that there was a batch of dark attribute Warcraft auctions here recently, and the group could come here to try their luck. 4
Gradually, the more people moved forward, the number of pedestrians on the road began to increase, and the whole road gradually began to be lively. On this road, there are young men in fresh clothes and angry horses, there are also graceful girls, pedestrians carrying things out from the village to sell, horses on the road, and goods from all walks of life. On this way, the most powerful horse that I have seen so far on the road is the Yunlong horse, this kind of horse is a high-grade breed of Warcraft that can ride and is suitable for cargo consignment, although the name has a dragon word, but it is not touched by the dragon at all, the mainland did not have this kind of noble and elegant horses that can run for a long time and travel thousands of miles a day, and their smooth advent is because these horses are artificially crossbred and bred, and the person who cultivated them is one of the three major chambers of commerce, the "Fengyang" Chamber of Commerce. It is also by virtue of their advantage that they have always been in a standing position among the three major chambers of commerce. The Chongyang Chamber of Commerce has tried to buy the cultivation method at a high price many times, and even secretly bribed the high-level officials of the Fengyang Chamber of Commerce, but they have not obtained the secret of cultivating them.
Midnight looked at the group of people riding tall white horses in front of him, and he couldn't take his eyes off it. Chang Yan smiled secretly when he saw it, and put his arm around Midnight's shoulders and said, "What's the matter, old man!
"Second brother, don't fool me alone! I just owe Chongyang a lot of money, and now I owe Feng Yang? Stop this!" After speaking, he blocked Chang Yan's arm around his neck in the middle of the night. Pouting in frustration and expressing his dissatisfaction!
"Boss, don't be like this, the second brother promised you to give you a whole horse after you enter the city this time. The manly man does what he says!" Midnight glanced at Changyan unmoved, yawned and leaned comfortably on the carriage.
Chang Yan was about to continue teasing and suddenly brushed several batches of white horses beside him, the speed was extremely fast, He Qianjun hurriedly dodged, and Chang Yan fell into Midnight's arms. Standing up with an unhappy face, he scolded loudly. The man on horseback glanced back, his eyes cold and gloomy, and then walked away, and at this moment, a picture clearly appeared in Chang Yan's mind, the Shadow Beast was traded by the other party to others.
"Big brother catches up, this person is likely to be the target of our trip!" He Qianjun heard this, and drove the carriage in that direction. But the speed of the carriage was a slow step after all. It didn't take long for it to be lost. However, Chang Yan looked at the direction they were traveling, and it was already very close to Cangyuan City. chuckled and said, "If you provoke me, I won't apologize, just wait to be cleaned up!"
The carriage returned to its usual speed, and Changyan began to study the map carefully. I wondered how to go into the city to find out the news in a while.
It didn't take long for the group to arrive at the city gate, the blue boulders piled up the towering city wall, the big red city gate, enough to accommodate a warrior of the giant clan to pass through, the city gate was engraved with a gilded plaque, which highlighted the font like a flowing cloud - Cangyuan City!
There is a team of government soldiers guarding the city wall, and there are ten people standing below in two columns in turn, checking the pedestrians from all walks of life, at midnight they lined up and were stopped by the guards and asked to get off the car for inspection, Midnight handed out the magician nameplate given by the academy, the guards saw the sign of Liuyun Academy above respectfully returned the nameplate to Midnight, and immediately let them go, during which they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Midnight anymore.
He Qianjun led the horses and walked into the city gate, presenting a different scene, the bluestone paved road was large enough for three carriages to pass side by side, the bustling crowd flowed through the streets, the roadside stalls selling all kinds of things, and then inside were one shop after another. got out of the car at midnight to say hello to the direction of the inn in the city, and the group walked towards the inn......
Not long after the group left in the middle of the night, a person quickly ran out of the city gate and went to the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, "Report! City Lord, there is another group of people, they are the magicians of Liuyun Academy!"
In front of the lobby, a middle-aged man with a big belly was comfortably making tea and drinking it comfortably. After hearing this, he instantly squirted out a mouthful of tea. Panicked, he put down the teacup in a panic, got up from the chair, and asked anxiously, "Can you see clearly?"
"Lord Hui City, it is confirmed that it is someone from Liuyun Academy, and you know how many of them you know, and we don't dare to ask."
"Five waves of people! Why did so many great gods come in our small temple! Send an order to go down and maintain the law and order for me, if anyone gives birth to some moth to provoke them, I will ask you!"
"Yes" The herald immediately turned around and left, and the fat middle-aged man walked back and forth in the hall with a big belly, his palms and backs of his hands. In the end, he looked helplessly at the outside of the courtyard and sighed and said, "Hopefully, it's not for that thing!"
