Long Tingxiao helped Lin Fantuo up, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are like this, we are really not used to it, just like before." www.biquge.info Although we will be nominally monarchs and ministers in the future, our relationship in private can be regarded as a family. ”

Lin Fan said: "The harem is different from the court, the affairs in the harem are just family affairs, as long as the queen doesn't mind, others won't say anything." But in the imperial court, the king is the king, and the minister is the minister! ”

Long Tingxiao said: "From now on, we are monarchs and ministers in the court, so we don't need to be so stubborn in private!"

"Okay." Before agreeing, Lin Fan was still a little hesitant. He knew that Zhao Ziheng and Xiao Chengyi usually had no difference between monarchs and ministers and Long Tingxiao, and the two of them could be so casual because they had that qualification.

One is playing with Long Tingxiao since childhood, and the other is a powerful person. But he was different, the governor knew that he was an orphan without a father and mother. The poor days allowed him to practice good eloquence, so in the matter of dressing up as a Taoist priest in Maoshan later, it was smooth sailing.

has experienced all kinds of people, Lin Fan has long discovered that Long Tingxiao and Zhang Mengjie have one thing in common, that is, once they get serious, they will not break their promises. It's not because of the two of them, one is Jun and the other is the queen.

Seeing that Lin Fan agreed, Long Tingxiao said: "Jie'er just told you about your future position just now. Now I'm talking to you about gunpowder. ”

Hearing something related to gunpowder, Lin Fan's spirit suddenly rose: "What's the matter with gunpowder?"

Long Tingxiao said: "Based on the last test and what happened to you in the Jade Yarn Country this time. Jie'er and I talked about gunpowder safety. ”

"Safety? I thought about it when I was making it, but I couldn't think of gunpowder that could not only exert the greatest power, but also reduce the danger. ”

"Let's ignore how gunpowder was made in the past. Instead, think about how to make gunpowder that is buried in the ground and can explode automatically through dark lines and the like. ”

Of course, it doesn't matter what she thinks, what matters is what Yu Xiyao, who is in charge, thinks. Hearing Yu Xiyao's agreement, Xiao Meier unconsciously hooked the corners of her mouth. All this fell into the eyes of Zhang Mengjie and Xiao Chengyi.

Zhang Mengjie laughed silently, but Xiao Chengyi sighed helplessly.

After the feast, those who should go go go where they should go.

Ten days later, Dongfang Xu came to the Liangcheng that Long Tingxiao said. As far as the eye can see, there are all half-submerged houses, and the unpopular city is not empty, but old, weak, sick and disabled. I didn't have anything to eat, but I just barely found some clean water to drink, and if I couldn't find it, I drank the water that flooded the house.

I don't know if it's because there is nothing to eat, not a single animal can be seen in the entire city, not even flying in the sky.

Seeing all this, Dongfang Xu couldn't help but ask Yutong: "How can this be?" Didn't we pass through here when we came? I remember it wasn't like that back then! ”

Yutong looked at Dongfang Xu and said helplessly: "Childe, are you sure you paid attention to the grass, trees and people on the road when you came?" If it weren't for the fact that when I walked to Yuzhen in Liangcheng, I felt more and more wrong, and I turned my head, I'm afraid that all three of us would have to live in the water! ”

Yutong's words embarrassed both Dongfang Xu and Wu Yuting. Dongfang Xu remembered that he was at that time, as if he was preoccupied with Wu Yuting's illness, and he didn't pay attention to anything around him at all.

And Wu Yuting looked at this familiar place, from sadness to moving, because at this time she was even more sure that Dongfang Xu did not lie to her. Maybe he already had her in his heart at that time, right? Otherwise, how could they be unaware of such an environment.

But after being moved, it was heartache, the three of them were just passing by here, with food on them, and with Dongfang Xu here, it was not difficult to cross Liangcheng. But what about the people here? If they could, they would have left here a long time ago. Even if they leave here, how can they make a living with their current situation?

Besides, although this place is deserted, it is a whole city! No matter how much Changyi City has in the city, it can't be wasted like this!

Dongfang Xu came to gather together to fight off the cold and hungry homeless people: "How long have you been like this?"

Most people didn't look at Dongfang Xu, and as if they didn't hear what he said, they continued to look at the houses in the water. There are also a few people who glanced at Dongfang Xu, and they only looked at the houses in the water like everyone else.

Later, an elderly man may have been moved by Dongfang Xu's "sincerity" and said: "This year's flood is like this. Hey, when I heard that someone from the imperial court was coming, and it was a prince who came to deal with the flood, everyone couldn't have been happier. But no one knew why, the flood was not cured, and there were not many chickens, ducks, geese, and meat left in the stomachs of the soldiers who said that they were here to control the flood. When the food was gone, the soldiers who had managed the floods were gone. ”

"The people of Liangcheng, who had a little labor at the beginning, all wanted to lead this water to a place where there was no water, but in the whole Liangcheng, where is there still a place where there is no water? In the end, those who could walk were gone. Those who can't walk can survive as much as possible, and those who can't survive will get out of this suffering early! ”

Yes, how can there be no dead people in such a life, but where are the dead gone? Is it buried? Where is it buried? If it's on a mountain, it means that there is a place to evacuate, and there should be something to eat on the mountain. Dongfang Xu quickly got rid of his thoughts, because even if there was a place to bury people, these people in front of him would not be able to carry people away at all, so what about those people?

"This old man, what about the person who can't survive?"

"People? Still human? You've all become lonely ghosts, right? The old man said and looked at the turbid waterway with a wry smile: "I'm afraid that the lonely souls and wild ghosts don't have to do it, right?"

The old man's gaze made Dongfang Xu's heart jump, could it? I hope it's not true, but he can't help but believe what he sees in front of him.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Dongfang Xu still pointed to the water and asked, "Are they all here?"

The old man said: "This son is not a stupid person. I don't know what Childe is doing in this Liangcheng? But everyone in Changyi City knows that this Liangcheng is already a dead city, and no one will come to this Liangcheng, isn't Gongzi a person from Changyi City? ”

Dongfang Xu didn't know what kind of mood he was in at the moment, and finally knew why Long Tingxiao wanted him to go to this Liang City.

"No, I'm from Changyi City, but I've been cultivating in the mountains with my master all these years, it's not a letter from home saying that something happened, let me go home. If it weren't for the fact that my family had to pass through Liangcheng, I really didn't know that Liangcheng would have such a big change, Liangcheng was a treasure land in the past!
