Five days later.

The convoy crossed the Luoxiao Mountains and followed the Qishui River to Jingmen.

Before Si Mingqin Zhen was born, Jingmen was just a small cottage under the jurisdiction of Tiemuya, isolated from the world like Tiemuya and its surrounding villages, with less than 100 aborigines.

They live by hunting, fishing, and gathering wild vegetables and fruits, and their way of life is relatively primitive and backward, protected by the ironwood cliffs, and they are in a safe corner, self-sufficient, and very quiet.

Later, in order to strengthen the defense of Tiemu Cliff and ensure the safety of Si Mingqin, the Xue Palace requisitioned a large number of troops from the Seven Great Families to station in the surrounding villages and towns, set up sentry posts, and blocked the water and land arteries in and out of Tiemu Cliff.

Despite this, the number of believers who traveled thousands of miles to Jingmen to pay homage to the children of runes continued to increase, and the more remote hunter farmers moved their families to Jingmen to settle down, and merchants from other places came to Jingmen.

Only a few years later, Jingmen was reborn and built into a mountain city of considerable scale, which has been established as a county, and the territory has expanded several times, full of vitality, all kinds of organs, and there is no shortage of everything that a big city should have, and the resident population has exceeded 10,000, and it is still growing.

On the way here, Liancheng Changhuan followed Si Mingqin's true intentions, and did not send a message to Tiemuya in advance, but just borrowed the name of the family to deal with the checkpoint inspection, and traveled all the way unimpeded.

Saixia Liancheng is a merchant clan, based on the twelve cities of Saixia in the hinterland of the northern region, and its industries are all over the major cities and towns in the north, and its tentacles have even extended to the south, saying that it is a rich country, which is not an exaggeration at all.

Compared to the Linglong Pavilion in the Land of the River Valley and the Prancing Horse Chamber of Commerce that it leads, it is nothing more than a small thing.

Moreover, borrowing the name of the family can also deter the outlaws along the way, so that they can retreat in the face of difficulties, saving a lot of trouble.

After entering the boundary of Jingmen, from the outpost ten miles away, all the way to the city gate, there were no less than ten checkpoints along the way, and the sentinels on duty were not lax at all, and they were extremely careful, even in the face of the caravan of the Liancheng family.

However, after many close inspections, none of the sentries found that the Children of Rune, who had been missing for nearly two months, were in the convoy.

After passing the last strict inspection at the city gate, the convoy officially entered Jingmen, and the commercial house belonging to the Liancheng family received a notice to come early to respond, and dozens of truckloads of goods were quickly transported to various stalls.

Mu Liu and Si Mingqin Zhen followed the girls and handymen of the Qingtan Courtyard, and took over an inn called Xingxinglou as a troupe. The six group photo guards were on the left and right, and the eleven black-clothed Deadpools did not feel that they had disappeared into the sea of people.

After throwing the accompanying miscellaneous coachmen and guards to the family's guild hall stationed in Jingmen, Liancheng Changhuan left behind a dozen powerful generals brought from Yanxia and rushed to the Star Picking Tower to meet Mu Liu and the others.

Jian Xingzhi went to the yamen to go through the formalities, and the girls were not idle, and were discussing with the innkeeper about borrowing land to perform, it seems that they are planning to stay in Jingmen for a long time.

Liancheng Changhuan found Si Mingqin Zhen, got straight to the point, and asked directly: "When are you going to announce that you have gone home?"

Si Mingqin smiled and said, "You can't wait." ”

Seeing through his heart, Liancheng Changhuan didn't feel ashamed, "That's right, the award of the Academy Palace means a lot to me. has a resounding name by his side, and his heart is more steady. Whether it's in the family or in Mirror Lake, my identity and status will also increase a lot as a result......"

Si Mingqin was really not interested in listening to Liancheng Changhuan's analysis of Vanity Fair's camp Gougou, and raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

"You'll have to ask Muliu when you'd like to come with me to Ironwood Cliff. ”

Lian Cheng Changhuan drooped his face and reproached Cheese Mingqin Zhen: "How can he make such a big decision, don't indulge him, spoil him, children can't be arrogant." ”

Mu Liu on the side listened, and turned around and left the wing room directly.

Si Mingqin smiled and said, "You're done." ”

"This kid is so headstrong. ”

Then, Lian Cheng Changhuan chased out with a bitter face, "My lord, listen to my explanation......"

On that day, Liancheng Changhuan finally reluctantly retracted his words slandering Mu Liu at the cost of two two-foot Qiongyu. After getting Si Mingqin's exact promise, Liancheng Changhuan rode a heavenly horse and left Jingmen first, and flew to Yanxia overnight to resume his life.

But before leaving, Si Mingqin really told Liancheng Changhuan two things.

One is that Muliu has not been inherited by the big boss.

Also, he was injured in a ghost market and fell into a coma, and it has nothing to do with the big boss.

The reason why he was deceived was to build momentum, so that he was willing to witness the undignified and unreliable apostle contract, and in the future, those powerful people of the seven major families will be held accountable, and at least one person will bear the black pot.

After listening, even the city mayor was stunned for a long time, threw away a sentence of "break off friendship", and then flew away without looking back.

Liancheng Changhuan had just left, and the news of Si Mingqin's return spread far and wide, but the common people didn't know when Si Mingqin had really left Tiemu Cliff, so the response was very flat. For them, it was not uncommon for Si Mingqin to sneak out to play.

For the few people who know the truth, it's another matter, but for the time being, no one has found out where Si Mingqin is really hiding.

Two days later, Mu Liu said goodbye to Ling Sizhu and the others, and left the Star Picking Tower with Si Mingqin Zhen.

Si Mingqin Zhen used to sneak out of the Ironwood Cliff to visit the surrounding towns, so he was extremely familiar with the paths in this area, including the side door and secret passages.

There are no others left and right, Si Mingqin is really a little more relaxed, but it is still not as casual as when they first met. He skillfully used illusions to avoid the patrolling guards, and left Jingmen through the dark passage with Mu Liu.

From Jingmen to Tiemu Cliff, it takes about half a day's foot.

It is the early autumn season, the north wind is cool, the sky is clear, the jungle is dressed and colored, and the scenery is infinitely good.

As the number of people traveling to and from the country has increased several times in just a few years, the supply of food exceeds the demand, and almost all of them rely on foreign support. With Tiemuya's consent, county officials encouraged people to graze cattle and sheep, while reclaiming wasteland and growing grains and vegetables according to local conditions. After several years of hard work, the climate has gradually become a climate, and finally there is a lot of harvest and alleviates the urgent need.

The hillside is full of cattle and sheep.

On both sides of the avenue where eight horses ride side by side, fertile fields and vegetable gardens are surrounded by mountains and rivers, and fish ponds are dotted in between. The grains and fruits to be harvested are fragrant, and the farmers return with baskets on their shoulders.

On the road, an old man recognized Si Mingqin Zhen, he was very happy, he did not kneel down to worship, seeing Si Mingqin Zhen was like seeing the doll next door, greeted warmly, took out a few fruits that could be eaten raw and stuffed them into the arms of the two, and then went home happily.

Mu Liu felt very good, his eyebrows and eyes were stretched, and his mood looked good.

Si Mingqin really turned his face sideways, glanced at Mu Liu, and smiled.

"I used to walk through here a lot, and I didn't think it was any good. This unexpected escape, some experience, and what I saw and heard along the way from Xining to Tiemuya, made me feel deeply. Only now do I realize that the scenery here is still the most beautiful. ”

"Will you ever go out in the future?"

Mu Liu used the lingua franca, which he was now proficient in, and his pronunciation was so standard that the average person could not hear his accent.

And Si Mingqin's real tiger teeth have also grown, and they no longer leak when they speak.

"Yes. ”

"After I go to Tiemu Cliff, can I still go back to Jingmen to visit my aunt and husband?"

On this journey, under the silent guidance of Ling Sizhu's moisturizing things, Mu Liu slowly turned into a relatively normal little boy.

"Of course, my house is not a prison. But you'd better come with me, there is a phantom array arranged by Mr. Water Mirror in the woods in front, and ordinary people can't get through. ”

"Okay. ”
