The fireworks are chaotic, and the drunken hometown is sad. Where is the dream tonight?

The clear and warm sunlight shines on a majestic city made of stones stacked on top of each other. In front of the pavilion above the city, a golden flag of deficit fluttered in the wind. On the banner fluttering and clearly written a big word "Qi". However, the red plaque hanging in the center of the city's castle tower is two dazzling red characters "Ruocheng".

The Demon Spirit Continent, south of Ruocheng, the southern city of Qi Kingdom, is a residential area inhabited by ordinary people. Unlike other places, there are not many commercial shops near this residential area in the south of the city. In fact, this is a remote area in the middle of the city.

In normal times, there are not too many people here, it is the busy season of spring ploughing, and most of the hard-working and simple people have gone out early to enter the fields or other houses to carry out the day's hard work. It is precisely for this reason that the number of people returning at noon is very spectacular.

Now, after three years of development and development outside the city, the land outside the city is planted with a lot of peaches and some precious fruits in addition to growing grain. After three years of production and development, Ruocheng has not only become an important area for the supply of grain and grass in the whole country of Qi, but also provided rare peach wine to the whole country of Qi. Even, because the area not far outside Ruocheng City near the East Linguan is the largest bamboo forest on the Demon Spirit Continent, although this bamboo forest is a rare area under the key protection of the Qi Kingdom. However, the large number of bamboo products provided from here every year also provides another major source of income for Ruocheng.

After such three years of heavy garrison, at the beginning of the development of half-soldier and half-peasant, Ruocheng has become the most prosperous town in Qi except for Xuancheng, the capital of the royal city. Walking on the streets of Ruocheng, the people are wearing brocade cloth robes produced in Jincheng, and the people who have faded the heavy cotton clothes in winter now show excited and yearning expressions on their faces.

Chen Jie, the governor of Ruocheng, recently adjusted the 2,000 Praetorian Guard troops guarding the city to 1,500 people, and specially prepared the remaining 500 people for the army guarding Yunsheng Juxian Tower, the No. 1 restaurant in the south of the Yangtze River not far outside Ruocheng. This year, the twenty-first year of Xuan Lejun, is the time when the triennial Jiangnan Martial Arts Conference is held.

Originally, during the reign of Xuan Lejun, the Jiangnan Martial Arts Conference would open in mid-October in early autumn, and the defenders of Ruocheng did not need to be in such a hurry to mobilize their troops. Just wait for the summer to start getting everything ready. It's just that now since Xuan Lejun went to the feudal country and disappeared, Prime Minister Li Dan has presided over the government of Qi State, and he has basically continued the policies and rules formulated by Xuan Lejun back then. It's just that in some details, Li Dan has changed a lot. For example, in the Jiangnan martial arts competition of Yunsheng Juxian Tower, Li Dan changed its time to the triennial spring season. That is, this year's Jiangnan Martial Arts Conference will start in April at the latest. The pressure on Ruocheng's defenders suddenly became very great, and Chen Jie had already mobilized more than 3,000 troops to Yunsheng Juxian Tower to arrange related matters.

Now, Chen Jie has once again mobilized the five hundred elite forbidden troops guarding Ruocheng, although it doesn't seem to be dangerous, but who would have thought that the crisis has been hidden in Ruocheng early, and a crisis against Qi will burst out at any time.

But, at least, for now, if there is no danger in the city. The streets that crisscross the city are still filled with people who hang out and chat, and where merchants still sell and talk. Everything seemed so peaceful.

Walking out of the mansion of Chen Jie, the governor of Ruocheng, it is the most prosperous commercial street in Ruocheng. This commercial street also leads to the central street of Wakajo, and the central street also leads to all directions around Wakajo. As a result, the people of other cities in the Qi Kingdom who were going to travel to Ruocheng were accustomed to coming to the central street first every time they entered Ruocheng. This central street is not only full of shops, restaurants, inns, but also several gambling houses and green houses. It is precisely for this reason that every time people come to visit Wakajo, the place they must come to is the central street.

The central street passes through four different passages leading to the vicinity of the four gates of Wakajo. Outsiders or people who are not very familiar with Wakajo will inevitably go to the four gates of Wakajo from this central road to Wakajo.

This time, a young man who looked to be only about fifteen years old and wore a light blue rolled-sleeved robe and a young girl in a white neon dress appeared on the road leading from the central street to the south of Wakajo Castle. The two of them laughed all the way, and the two of them were very relaxed when they walked on the not too wide streets of Ruocheng.

These two teenagers and girls who were talking and laughing along the way were Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, who had just left the mansion of Chen Jie, the governor of Ruocheng, although the two of them grew up on the edge of Ruocheng, in the bamboo forest between Ruocheng and Donglinguan. has only grown up in the bamboo forest for ten years, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, two siblings, have only been to Ruocheng once, and they have only followed Gao Hanyue to visit her mother. I don't know why, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan still have some memories of Gao Hanyue's home in their impressions.

So, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, two siblings who were not very familiar with the streets of Ruocheng, also went to the residential area in the south of Ruocheng through the central street of Ruocheng. They are in a better mood now, although the identities of the two of them are very special, but just from the appearance, others will not notice the identity of their two children.

So, through the central street, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, two brothers and sisters, came to the junction of the central street and Ruocheng Chengnan. This is a very conspicuous corner, before turning this corner, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan can still see a large number of restaurants and shops, on both sides of the street, and the street is also bustling with a large number of people. When the two of them turned the corner, the road ahead immediately turned into a very quiet bluestone street, and on both sides of this street were only houses of uneven heights. I didn't see any other shops, restaurants or even inns.

Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan took two steps back first, and returned to the previous corner buckle again. This time, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, two siblings, saw a very inconspicuous small wooden sign on the side of the road. On this wooden plaque, two big characters are written vigorously and powerfully, "Demarcation".

Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan didn't know what to say for a while, and their faces were filled with expressions of crying and laughing.

"Chong'er Shanshan, you come up!" Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two brothers and sisters, sighed for a while, and continued to step on the bluestone slab under their feet and prepared to move forward towards the south of Ruocheng City. At this time, a familiar voice came from behind them. When Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan's eyes followed the source of the voice, they unexpectedly saw Gao Hanyue's beautiful figure, greeting the two of them by the window on the third floor of the highest floor of a "Food for Immortals" restaurant not far from them.

Even though she didn't quite understand why Gao Hanyue was here, not her mother. However, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan still turned their heads and prepared to go upstairs to find out.

This "Food for Immortals" restaurant is a three-story restaurant with a red exterior wall, and there are two neatly dressed white-clothed shopkeepers standing under the plaque of this "Food for Immortals" restaurant, where they solicit business. When Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan walked briskly to the mahogany gate of this restaurant, the two shopkeepers in white saw Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan walking towards their restaurant from afar. The two of them stepped forward to greet Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, and said with a smile: "Can the two guest officers come and try the new dishes of our store today?"

Feng Yuchong also smiled slightly, he pointed to the direction of the third floor of this restaurant, and said lightly: "No, we have a friend here, we are here to find her"

The expressions of these two shopkeepers flashed a slight expression of contempt, and then according to the normal rules, they confirmed Gao Hanyue's name with Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, and then put the two of them in, and told them that the private room that Miss Gao had booked was the first "Que Pavilion" on the third floor. Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, the two siblings, didn't bother with these two shopkeepers, they quickened their pace and walked up the stairs and came to the third floor smoothly.

As soon as they walked up to the third floor, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan saw Gao Hanyue's figure standing at the top of the stairs waiting for them. Seeing the slightly surprised expressions of Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan, Gao Hanyue's pretty face smiled shallowly, and took the words that Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan were about to ask and said, "Let's go sit down first, I made an exception this time to order a table full of dishes."

As soon as Gao Hanyue said this, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan were even more surprised. In the past three years, they have been traveling around the Demon Spirit Continent with Gao Hanyue, and every time they enjoy food in various places, Gao Hanyue always returns the two dishes one by one, trying to spend less money on each meal. This time, a table full of dishes was ordered, which made Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan a little confused.

Walking into this "Que Pavilion" private room, Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan saw an old woman sitting opposite them with a kind smile. Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan both knew that this old woman, who looked to be in her sixties, turned out to be a middle-aged woman who was only forty-five years old, and she was Gao Hanyue's mother. Years of illness and mental torture made this hard-working woman look old and dull.

Gao Hanyue is close to nineteen years old this year, and she is approaching her twenties, and she is not willing to live as peacefully and steadily as her mother hopes, and she is even more unwilling to find a random person she doesn't like at all and marry like this. In her heart, meeting her master and mother back then was the most important step for her to change her fate. However, even though there are occasional differences of opinion, Gao Hanyue still has great respect and love for her mother.

Feng Yuchong and Feng Shanshan also knew Gao Hanyue's mother, so the two of them didn't pay attention to the edge of the round wooden table, but directly bowed and saluted slightly, and said respectfully: "I've seen my aunt."
