Liangdu and Liangzhou are only more than 50 miles apart, the two cities are each other's corners, according to historical records, in the more than 300 years ago, the Tang Dynasty launched a great war against the barbarians, these two cities have been reduced to isolated islands, and it is precisely because they can rely on each other that they can survive to this day.

The history books may not be all right, but in fact, these two cities are indeed the same, and no amount of greenery can hide their strong sense of historical vicissitudes.

Xu Fatzi entered Liangdu City and walked around for almost half an hour, except for a few copper plates from well-wishers, the biggest discovery was that there were too few people in Liangdu City than before.

Although it was the height of summer, the vegetation in the Liangdu City was luxuriant, and the towering ancient trees were clustered, and the weather was not cool, but it definitely did not reach the point where people didn't want to go on the street?

Why? The fat man knows that he is dressed now, if he asks someone casually, he will definitely not be able to ask a result, and if he is lucky, he will get two copper plates, and it is very possible to be spit on or beaten if he is unlucky.

People are grouped by clusters, but the strange thing is that it has been a long time, and he hasn't even seen a beggar, if it weren't for Xu Fatzi being a local native, he might not have gained anything from just visiting for another day.

The Temple of the Beast King is a relic of the barbarians, and it is rumored that the Li royal family hopes that this place will naturally exist, so this piece of ruins that covers a lot of land can still exist in Liangdu City.

But of course, no one will repair this place - the heart of heaven is unpredictable, and if it causes a thunderstorm, right?

No one dares to demolish it, no one dares to repair it, and of course no one will manage it, so I don't know when it began, the Beast King Temple has become synonymous with the darkness in Liangdu City, not only beggars live here, but the so-called ninth-rate people will come here to live if they have no place to live, and over time, even all the dark tentacles of the entire land of Liangzhou have begun to penetrate here, and with the passage of time, they have become more and more entrenched.

When the fat man came to the Temple of the Beastmaster, he easily found a beggar, and then only paid the price of three copper plates in exchange for all the information he wanted to know.

In the morning, the fat man got a total of five copper plates, afraid of taking out a large stack of tickets given by Dong Nisan to scare people, a little hungry fat man simply used the remaining two copper plates to buy a steamed bun to eat, with a comprehensive plan, the fat man walked out of the temple of the beast king, unhurried towards the direction of home.

The tenth in the palace examination, this ranking is not high, but in the desolate land of Liangzhou, it is a result of the imperial examination that will only take several years or even decades, and it is well known that it is favored by the entire county of Liangzhou, so even if the fat man chooses to become a ranger because he is willing to fall, but in Liangdu City, his closest relatives are still very courteous, and his life is quite good.

Seeing a gap where there was no one outside the door, the fat man knocked on the door, grabbed the door without saying anything, covered the old housekeeper's mouth, and then revealed his identity.

The old housekeeper watched the fat man grow up, and when he was treated as his own, the young master with tears in his eyes after being let go, called Xu Meng very sour, but even so, he did not forget to explain what should be explained.

"Uncle Gen, don't make a noise about my return, even my mother has to hide it first, there is no reason, understand?"

After getting along with Tony San, the fat man was infected by him unconsciously, not only did he speak like him, but he also learned three points in momentum, so that the old housekeeper Uncle Gen nodded involuntarily and firmly for a while, although he didn't know why.

"My mother's person, if she knew that I was back, she would definitely boast all over the world, if it was like this in the past, of course, it would be fine, but now it is very likely to kill our whole family."

The fat man knew that he didn't let Uncle Gen know the seriousness of the matter, so he promised to agree in person, and then immediately went to tell everyone in the family that he was back, so he had to explain a few words by the way.

"Young Master, did you commit something in Chang'an City..."

"No, Uncle Gen, I can't tell you the complexity of the matter, in short, you listen to me, now you take me to take a bath first, and then quietly call my father, I have something to tell him."

An hour later, the fat man who took a bath met his long-lost father.

The fat man's father is far less promising than the fat man, but he was also a well-known talent in the surrounding streets and alleys back then, and the fat man went to Chang'an City to see it once after he was on the emperor's list, so although he was a little shocked by the fat man's sudden return to Xu's father, he still quickly stabilized his emotions.

"Is your baby committing trouble in Chang'an?"

"Dad, why are you the same as Uncle Gen, I haven't committed any trouble now!"

"Haven't done anything yet? What are you going to do? ”

"You don't care what you do, I called you here to give you some money, you can take my mother and my sister directly to Beichuan to find the general who guards the city, and then give him this token."

“… Baby, what's wrong with you? ”

"It's okay, Dad, the world is going to be chaotic, and I have to guard against it."

"Is the world really going to be chaotic? I went to the street the day before yesterday and heard people say that they still don't believe me! ”

"Don't believe it! It's going to be messy! Our barbarians here are no less than those in the sunset prairie, I just came from Beichuan, and the rivers over there are all red miles! ”

"Kill the barbarians, are we Tang people?"

"It's rare to hit a black cat and a few white cats by the way? Our Xu family is flourishing, I'm afraid that I will be targeted by others, you baby and I have been on the emperor's list, if you don't listen to me, under the guillotine in the future, our family will definitely bear the brunt. ”

"So, you don't care about Xu's honor or disgrace? Baby, my father doesn't read as much as you, but we can't do the things that are ungrateful and betray our ancestors, don't forget that your baby was going to enter Beijing to take the exam, if it wasn't for the whole clan to pool money and send you, your baby wouldn't have survived to Chang'an City! ”

"Dad, don't worry, I won't, you go, I'll stay, lead the whole clan to glory or live and die with the whole Xu family."

"What if your mother doesn't leave?"

"It's simple, you just tell her, I secretly sent a letter from Beichuan, saying that I want to marry a young lady from a large local family, my mother knows that she is too guarded, and she will definitely not dare to make a noise, and she will be appointed to go with you obediently when the time comes."

"You two aunts..."

"They must stay, otherwise you can talk nonsense, who will believe in Manliang Capital?"

"Even if it's this, I don't know what to talk nonsense, don't mention it, what do I say when someone asks me?"

"Show him the letter. This letter was written when I was in Beichuan, the content is that I met a noble person in Chang'an, please take your mother and sister to enjoy two months of Qingfu, and there is my greeting to him, and he will definitely send you guards at that time, so that you can travel safely. ”

"Too guarded with hands and eyes, can't it be over after one check?"

"I'm afraid he won't check! It's true that I met a noble person, and I knew about it all over Chang'an, and he believed it all when he checked it! ”
