In the eastern part of the forest, there is a "concave" natural lake, which resembles a huge green jade, quietly hidden in the vast ancient forest.

For countless years, it has been sleeping quietly, alone and silently for long periods of solitude, without anyone coming to disturb it.

Until one day 10,000 years ago, dozens of outsiders rushed in and accidentally broke its silence.

Among the intruders, young and old, they all had long green hair, dark or light. Just like the color of the lake, it is fresh, beautiful, and full of vigorous vitality!

They came suddenly, like a spring breeze, but they did not leave as far away as the wind.

The intruders quickly settled on the shores of the lake, and no one left for many years.

I don't know what day it was, the lake welcomed its second group of visitors, and in the countless days and nights that followed, the number of wooden houses around the lake gradually increased, and so did the number of residents.

The population is constantly increasing, and people are cutting down trees and building houses in the forests around the green water lake, gradually forming a large-scale circular settlement. So the original "Green Lake Village" was renamed "Green Lake Town", and finally became "Green Lake City", which is now the county seat of Shu County.

・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・

In the depths of winter, although the rain and snow have not been attacked, the temperature in Shuxian County has still dropped.

It was noon, in the direction of the county seat, there was a sudden sound in the quiet jungle, and then a gray figure appeared among the trees.

Bian Yao had been walking alone in the forest for more than ten days, wearing a gray-white cloth robe, covered with moss stains and scratches in many places.

A canopy of long black hair was tied back casually, the hair on the top of the head looked a little unkempt, and a few strands of idle hair hung down on the forehead and sides, fluttering slightly with the footsteps.

Although the whole person looks quite energetic, it gives people the impression of being a little sloppy.

Looking at his expression at the moment, he was slightly impatient, a little impetuous, his cheeks were still a little dirty, and his face showed a little sadness and bitterness.

Along the way, the first few days were not bad, and he could barely endure the boredom and loneliness, but from the fourth day, he could no longer bear the annoyance in his heart, and became impatient.

So, when he saw the living thing, he rushed to chase it, and when he caught it, he held it in the palm of his hand, and hurried away while playing with his pet. In this way, although most of the lonely time on the journey was relieved, it also delayed the trip and delayed a lot of time.

Early this morning, the little squirrel that had accompanied him for two days and nights died inexplicably, which made him feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, and his mood was very uncomfortable, so the restlessness buried deep in his heart was faintly stirring again.

Throughout the morning, Bian Yao walked through the trees with a cold face, raising his hand to slap the trees from time to time, or kicking his legs, I don't know if it was to vent the boredom in his heart, or to express his dissatisfaction with the death of the little squirrel.

Fortunately, it can be roughly seen from the map that it is not far from the county seat, and the pace is getting brisker and brisker.

Half an hour later, Bian Yao walked through the two tall but ordinary green trees with a blank face, and then his footsteps suddenly stopped.

In a moment, the scene in front of him changed, the lush branches and leaves that covered the sky suddenly disappeared from the top of his head, his body was instantly surrounded by a warm breath, and all kinds of voices rushed to penetrate into his ears, as if he was reincarnated.

Looking at it in the blink of an eye, what is presented in front of you is like a mysterious and beautiful picture.

The pale blue sky, adorned with white clouds, drifted slowly, and the breeze on the face was just like spring from March.

In the field of vision, the most conspicuous thing is the pure wood buildings of different shapes and decorations, some of which are residential houses, and some of which are various shops.

As far as the eye can see, there is a wide road, and the green grass on the road is like a newly paved green carpet, constantly exuding vitality. The passers-by, young and old, all have a carefree look on their faces, and their faces are full of innocent smiles.

Bian Yao opened his mouth and was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he found himself standing on the side of the road, on the left and right sides of unknown fruit trees, with purple and red stamens blooming on the branches, and bursts of strange fragrance came to his nose.

As far as the eye can see, all kinds of flowers, plants and fruit trees can be seen everywhere, all of which are hand-picked.

Looking at the passers-by walking separately, no one cast strange glances, everything seemed so natural and harmonious, as if they were standing here in the first place, without attracting any attention.

Slowly withdrawing the look of surprise from his face, he took a step forward and stepped onto the green road, joining the cheerful pedestrians with joy.

This is the county seat of Shuxian County, the Green Lake City that is like spring all year round, a forest city shrouded in the spirit array.

In addition to the many tall buildings, there are also arched wooden bridges that span the street like rainbows, and the buildings on both sides of the road are used to connect the buildings on both sides of the road.

I don't know what mysterious spell was cast, but on the roofs and outer walls of some wooden buildings, fresh green branches and leaves actually grew, blowing in the wind, which is very beautiful!

Inns, restaurants, teahouses, gambling houses, snack bars and other places for eating, living and enjoying are everywhere.

Bian Yao had never heard of such a place before, and although he heard that he had a yearning meaning, he could only imagine it from afar, and he had no personal experience. Now I am immersed in the scene, witnessing the surrounding environment, feeling the strange and beautiful atmosphere, and I like it at once.

Walking in the endless crowd, there will be no noisy feeling, the body and mind are relaxed and happy, and the irritable emotions have long disappeared.

As you move your footsteps, you can smell all kinds of faint fragrances, some of which come from flowers and plants, and some of which waft from the houses next to the road, coming from different diets.

Green Lake City has about 300,000 local residents, but hundreds of thousands of people come from all over the world every year. As a result, the climate and the bustling and beautiful chic environment make tourists linger and often stay for months before leaving.

The environment is so beautiful! Bian Yao forgot who he was for a while, and just wanted to have a good time. He put the purpose of his trip behind and decided to go to the center of the city first, so that he could enjoy the rumored green water lake.

With a smile on his face, he kept looking east and west all the way, walking leisurely, and slowly walking towards the inner city.

A green-haired young man in a green official uniform was approaching, and he was a city patrolman.

When the young man's gaze swept to Bian Yao's face, his eyes couldn't help shrinking, and there was a trace of imperceptible stagnation in his expression, but he quietly looked away and continued to walk forward.

Although he didn't notice the young man's abnormal expression, when he saw the pale green hair at first glance, Bian Yao couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, and suddenly felt nervous! Because he suddenly remembered that he was still accused of being a "murderer."

After seeing the other party's face clearly, Bian Yao let out a shallow breath of turbidity, but he was still worried in his heart, and he couldn't help but pay more attention to it.

He pretended to be casual, passed by the green-haired youth, and then gradually increased his pace, deliberately avoiding crowded avenues and choosing lanes with relatively sparse pedestrians.

After quickly navigating through several streets and alleys one after another, Bian Yao could finally confirm that he was being followed by the green-haired young man.

After discovering this situation, he couldn't help but feel a nameless fire surging in his heart! Before he could find out any useful information about the location of the Mu family, he had been mistaken for a murderer and was wanted by the officials.

Bian Yao suddenly thought of taking the initiative to surrender and carry out the mountain of night corpses, but he had no bottom in his heart!

Because the old ghost just asked him to seek refuge in the Mu family, but did not explain anything else. What's more, murder and robbery is a serious crime! He was worried that if the name he reported didn't work for those little people, he didn't know what kind of suffering he would suffer at that time.

After a short period of struggle, he quickly dismissed the idea of surrendering, and no longer considered it unless he was cornered.

At the corner of the intersection ahead, there is a small inn called "Konoha", and two fragrant dream trees are planted at the door.

Bian Yao hurried to the door of the inn, hurriedly walked in, asked the shopkeeper for a two-story guest room, and then ran up to the second floor and entered the room.

Not far from the street diagonally across from the Konoha Inn, the green-haired young man who had passed by Bian Yao before was standing under a fruit tree with his arms crossed. Behind him, at some point, there were two more middle-aged men, one tall and one short, both of whom were city patrol guards with light green hair.

"What about people, are you sure you're not mistaken?" asked the tall, green-haired man.

"I just walked into the Konoha Inn, whether it is age or appearance, it is very similar to the person in the portrait, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. I've sent a messenger to it, so keep quiet, but don't alarm him. The green-haired young man replied calmly, never taking his eyes off the inn.

"Do you know what his origin is? The city lord actually personally ordered the whole city to pay attention to this person, and I heard that the Mu family would send someone over for this person. The tall man continued, his eyes full of curiosity.

"I don't know! It seems that the cause of the incident originated in Guki Village. Seven days ago, a prisoner rode a wind beast to see the city lord, and you all know what happened next. The green-haired young man frowned slightly and said slowly.

As soon as the conversation between the two ended, he saw Bian Yao walking out of the inn with a calm face, and then stood at the door and looked left and right. When his gaze swept to the green-haired man's side, his complexion changed significantly, and then he quickly turned around and hurried towards the east end of the street.

"Why did you come out so quickly?" Looking at the figure walking out of the inn from a distance, the green-haired young man was a little puzzled, and suddenly shouted urgently: "It's not good!

The three green-haired guards changed their faces and hurriedly followed Bian Yao's back.

The security environment in Green Lake City is very good! There are very few fights and other conflicts, and even those who are the most prone to tantrums will become mild after entering the city, which is very strange!

Because of this, those city patrol guards wearing green official uniforms, like ordinary travelers, walk through the streets and alleys with ease and comfort, and there are very few opportunities to make a move.

Now seeing the abnormal behavior of the three city patrol guards, pedestrians and passengers on the nearby streets naturally became curious and stopped to watch.

Bian Yao walked faster and faster, and finally simply ran, seeing that the city patrol guards behind him were chasing closer and closer, and three more people were added halfway, he suddenly ran into a seven-story pavilion.

Sanjin Building is a lively gambling house, and it is rumored that the owner behind it is related to the city lord of Sanshan County, and it is also relatively famous in Green Lake City.

A total of six green-clothed city guards stopped outside the Sanjin Tower, and quickly dispersed to surround the pavilion, closely guarded it, and then quietly waited for someone from above to take over.

If you want to say why they didn't chase them directly, of course, it was not because they were afraid of the owner of the gambling house, but because of the strict order of the city lord: no conflict with the person in the portrait, once their whereabouts are discovered, they only need to report it, even if they have to do so, they can only follow it, and they must not force their hands to take people!

・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・

Konoha Inn, located in a room on the second floor.

On the soft grass bed, Bian Yao was meditating with his eyes closed, and suddenly opened his eyes after a while, revealing a hint of cunning in his eyes. I thought that this trick was so easy to use!

Laughing and turning over and jumping out of bed, he walked to the back of the door, he planned to leave the inn, go out of the city to avoid the limelight first, and then go into the city to find out what kind of way to avoid people's eyes.

He quietly opened the door and was about to step out, but he was so shocked that he almost cried out!

There was an old man with green hair standing at the door, with a gentle face and a very dark hair!

The old man was wearing a blue-green robe, with two very shallow wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and he couldn't tell the specific age from his appearance, with a faint smile on his face, giving people the feeling of a spring breeze!

"Your name is Bian Yao?" the old man looked at the stupid young man in front of him, and suddenly asked with a smile.

Bian Yao nodded, didn't make a sound, secretly shocked in his heart, and guessed randomly!

"I'm the chief steward of the Mu family, come with me. The old man spoke again, his tone was invisibly a little lighter, but the smile on his face was a little thicker.
