In the land of Zhongzhou, east of Qiancheng, there is a little-known town, which is far away from the main road, and is rarely frequented on weekdays, perhaps because of the remoteness, this town has escaped the turmoil of war in the Tianbao years.

Although this poor countryside on the edge of Zhongzhou may seem inconspicuous compared to the eastern capital of Shangyang, the town far away from the worldly strife has its own tranquility and peace.

On this day, the town is still peaceful, the downtown is crowded, and everywhere you can see the villagers from nearby villages coming to the market, and the sound of hawkers on the street comes and goes.

On the noisy street, a man and a woman shuttled side by side in the bustling crowd, the man was dressed in green clothes, and his eyebrows were heroic, and it was clear at a glance that he was not a person from the downtown area in this poor country.

The woman is in her prime, her appearance is delicate, although she is wearing cloth clothes, she can't hide the sultry figure under the coarse clothes and clumsy cloth, so that the beauty appears in the downtown and naturally becomes a beautiful landscape that attracts people's attention, provoking a lot of young people who are strong and strong to look back.

…………

"What's the name here",

Ling Cang looked at the beautiful woman beside him and asked, after a few days of healing and conditioning, although his skills have not fully recovered, he can still walk as freely as a normal person.

After all, the strength of a cultivator is different from that of ordinary people, and the recovery speed of the same injury is much faster than that of a normal person, not to mention that Ling Cang himself is a sword cultivator of the 6th order.

But having said that, Ling Cang is only walking around at will now without any obstacles, but it is impossible to adjust his qi and practice his sword.

Ning Bao is still immersed in the hustle and bustle of the city, looking east, looking west, his clear eyes are full of novelty that is difficult to hide, since he came to that remote village with his brother Da Zhuang, Ning Bao has not stepped out of the village for more than ten years, this is just a barren place in the countryside in the eyes of outsiders, but for her, this remote town is already the outside world,

Hearing Ling Cang's call, Ning Bao came back to his senses,

"I heard my brother say that this town is called Ping'an City",

Ning Bao looked at the latter and pouted and replied,

"Oh, Ping'an City", Ling Cang repeated, a little curious about the origin of the town,

"It's a nice name, is there any way to say it?"

Ling Cang chuckled, looked at Ning Bao and continued to ask,

Ning Baoxiu frowned slightly, looked at the latter and patiently explained,

"This town originally had no name, but because there were too many people who fled during the Tianbao period, settlements were gradually formed, and there were many more villages on the periphery of the town, and the locals called the town Ping'an City, which were all said by the old residents of the village, as for the rest, I don't know."

Ling Cang whispered,

"I see",

After that, the two of them no longer bothered about this problem, and continued to pace ahead side by side, this remote town has no place name, and because of its closed location, it does not even appear on the Central Plains territory of the dynasty.

But it is precisely because the town is located in the middle of nowhere, far away from the main road, during the Tianbao period, a group of Li people who fled to the city gathered, and some residents from all over Zhongzhou settled in the town to escape the war in the outside world for many years

There are also those who choose to settle in settlements outside the city, and over time one village after another is formed, but whether it is the residents in the city or outside the city, there is a place for communication.

That is, there is little contact with the outside world, due to the traffic congestion here, the location is remote, and it is very inconvenient for people in the town to go to other cities in Zhongzhou.

What's more, many of the inhabitants here have fled, they are all poor people who have been devastated by the war, and they are also tired of the intrusion of strife and war.

Although this place is a poor and remote place, at least there is no tragedy of horses' hooves neighing, no wailing and devastation all over the wilderness, no misery and fear of burning and looting when the rebels break the city, and slaughter the city to vent their anger.

The people can live and work here in peace and contentment, they can be self-sufficient, and few people are willing to return to the troubled times of war and gunsmoke.

Ling Cang and Ning Bao walked one after the other in the flow of people, Ling Cang's mood was calm, his expression was casual, this noisy but indisputable mountain town made him feel a quiet and peaceful that he had not had for a long time, so that he temporarily removed the shackles imprisoned in the depths of his heart,

During the time he spent with Ning Bao and Da Zhuang, compared to the escape road after leaving Chang'an, Ling Cang was in a completely different state of life, under the careful care of the Ning sisters and sisters.

Within a few days, Ling Cang was able to get out of bed and walk around, due to the damage to his meridians, he had no way to adjust his qi and practice his sword, so every day like other Orion villagers, he followed Da Zhuang into the mountains to hunt.

Every day at sunrise and sunset, although the breath engraved in his bones that belongs exclusively to the cultivator could not be hidden, Ling Cang completely lived the life of a mountain villager, the mystery of his life experience, the road of escape, as if nothing had happened, and such thoughts had popped up in his heart once upon a time

"It would have been a blessing if, in the beginning, he had lived an ordinary and carefree life, like the thousands of residents who lived here"

Through this period of getting along, the relationship between Ling Cang and the Ning family brothers and sisters is also getting closer and closer, for Ling Cang, Ning Bao and Da Zhuang are his life-saving benefactors, and they are also the only people who have met him sincerely after leaving Chang'an, and his gratitude to the two brothers and sisters is beyond words,

In addition, he was also moved by the simplicity and kindness of the brother and sister, and liked this simple brother and sister from the bottom of his heart, and Ning Bao and Da Zhuang also regarded Ling Cang as family.

The brother and sister have always depended on each other, for Da Zhuang Ning Bao is his only relative in this world, this time he is relieved to let Ling Cang take Ning Bao to a small town far away from the village to play, which shows that he is absolutely at ease with the latter,

Ning Bao was actively running among the noisy markets, her eyes constantly looking between the vendors and shops, as if a bird that had never left its cage suddenly flew into the sky, and everything in front of her seemed extremely new to her.

The town is small in size, divided into two distinct streets by old stone walls, and the east street is a row of closely connected earthen houses, where most of the original residents of the town live.

West Street, on the other hand, is a gathering place for merchants and hawkers, with a downtown area and a variety of shops, and it is also a place where people from the surrounding villages come to catch the market.

After Ling Cang and Ning Bao entered the town, they naturally came to the place where the shops and hawkers gathered on West Street, but now that this street that was not too long was about to come to an end, Ling Cang found a strange phenomenon,
