Nanyang County has been in war several times, but it has been resurrected like a phoenix reborn from the fire.

The world believes that Nanyang is a blessed place from heaven, and no matter how many hardships it goes through, it can survive tenaciously and quickly become the core of the Spring and Autumn Continent.

In addition, there is a lotus treasure land in the east to gather the king's qi of the world here, and the Nanyang Basin, surrounded by mountains and rivers, has also become one of the places that the vassal states are extremely interested in and compete for.

Two years ago, in the Great War of Qin and Chu, the Qin State defeated the Chu State and incorporated a radius of 200 miles, including Nanyang, into its own territory, and the Chu State was forced to move its capital and completely lost control of Nanyang.

Nanyang is also a person who is good at playing games in the world, a very critical son on the chessboard, from here to look at the world, will be invincible. Therefore, with the Confucian Confucianism and the Ghost Valley Wild Ghost as the two major groups, the game centered on Nanyang has never stopped.

Under their generous strokes, countless black legions have changed the ownership of Nanyang again and again with blood, and at the same time, they have also affected the overall situation of the world.

However, the people of Nanyang don't know anything about it. In the blend of merchants from all over the world and celebrities from all over the world, Nanyang quickly became a famous metropolis in the world.

All those who have been to Nanyang have heard the nursery rhymes that circulate in the streets and alleys of Nanyang:

"Nanyang, Nanyang, rice wine is the most fragrant;

Nanyang, Nanyang, the long sword is the brightest;

Nanyang, Nanyang, Meiyu is the top. ”

The three major families in Nanyang, the Deng family, the Wan family, and the Bian family. The Deng family and the Wan family are famous in Nanyang for mining iron and forging swords, while the Bian family has become one of the three major families in Nanyang on the same level as the Deng family and the Wan family with the art of passing jade.

In the early years of the Deng family, there was a figure who was both proficient in sword casting technology and proficient in swordsmanship, and his original skills, a sword change made it reach the peak of sword heart, sword intent, and sword moves, and entered the Tao with a sword, becoming the sword god of the world.

Wan's is especially good at casting swords, and its divine soldiers are famous swords that the world's celebrities are vying to buy, Wan's has cast incense swords and gave them to Qu Lingjun of Chu State, Qu Lingjun has entered the sword with poems, and realized the two moves of Tianwen and Soul Conjuring, whether from the sword heart or sword intent, they are higher than a sword and the wind and clouds have changed too much.

Poetry and sword more freehand, the sword intent is smart and lofty, the sword heart is pure and upright, indestructible, but unfortunately, Qu Lingjun has a bad fate, and he has been burdened by the country all his life, and he has not been able to let this earth-shattering, crying ghost and god's kendo stunt stay on the rivers and lakes. It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that Qu Zi accepted a disciple before Xie Guo and taught his perception of kendo to this unknown disciple, but this is all rumors in the rivers and lakes, and there is no way to know whether it is true or not.

Speaking of the Bian family, its family heirloom is comparable to the Taoist Danding technique. Take the essence stone of heaven and earth as a guide, read the magic method of heaven and earth immortality, turn it into your own use, and prolong your life. Bian is the first of the three major families in Nanyang out of the immortal family, its ancestor Bian He can not only read the heaven and earth essence stone, even ordinary stones can also read, so as to master and understand the way of heaven, a hundred years ago in the lotus treasure land daytime soaring, envy the people of Nanyang.

Nanyang County, East Gate.

The four of them led the horses and walked into the slightly cold streets of Nanyang.

At this time, Nanyang is not more prosperous than in the past, and most of the pedestrians in the city are in a hurry. The haze of war inevitably hung over the heads of the people of Nanyang. Fortunately, they are accustomed to the smoke of gunfire and know how to survive the war, and as long as they live, nothing else is a problem.

"Nanyang, why is it so depressed?" The white-clothed young man frowned slightly, and looked around, which was very different from the Nanyang he had come to a few years ago.

Hakutsuru whispered, "Someone is spying on us......"

Chen Zhen consciously prepared to look back, but was stopped by the young man in white: "I was turned back...... Just pretend you don't know and move on! ”

Under the leadership of the young man in white, four people, four horses and one dog came to the door of a wine store.

The shopkeeper was just sitting at the door napping, hearing the sound of horses' hooves, he opened his sleepy eyes, greeted him happily, and said with a smile: "A few guest officers, do you want to drink?" ”

The young man in white smiled: "I'm here to drink your rice wine, I haven't drunk it for a long time, and I'm a little greedy."

Xiao Er looked at the young man in white and said, "It turned out to be a regular customer, but Mr. hasn't been to Nanyang for at least three years, right?" ”

The young man in white glanced at the shopkeeper, understood what he wanted to say, and said with a smile: "So, you've been working here for three years?" ”

The shopkeeper wanted to be clever, but he was discovered, smiled embarrassedly, and bowed down to invite the four of them into the wine shop.

"Two pots of rice wine ......," the young man in white instructed the shopkeeper.

Chen Zhen hurriedly asked, "Little Second Brother, do you have tea here?" ”

Before Xiao Er could answer, the young man in white smiled and said, "He only has rice wine here, and he only sells rice wine......

Chen Zhen glanced at Yu Xuanji, and was a little embarrassed: "Sir, you see that we don't drink either, do you have to serve us some tea?" ”

Only then did the young man in white react, and said embarrassedly: "It's all my fault, I forgot that you two don't drink, but you have to drink this rice wine today." You have to remember that life is the most enjoyable pot of wine, walking the rivers and lakes without drinking is boring, from today on, learn to drink ......"

Yu Xuanji stood up, glanced at the three of them, and said lightly: "I'll go find an inn......

The young man in white didn't stop him, and said with a smile: "It's okay, lest this kid drink too much and can't ride a horse, we will live in Nanyang today, and we will set off tomorrow morning......"

Chen Zhenyi stood up and said to Yu Xuanji: "I'll go with you......"

"Sit down, she can go, you can't go......" The young man in white looked serious.

Hearing this, Yu Xuanji left expressionlessly, Chen Zhen looked at Yu Xuanji, then at the young man in white, and then cast a look at Bai He for help, and said with a wry smile: "Sir, do you have to drink?" ”

The white crane and the white-clothed boy nodded heavily.

The person who served the wine was a white and chubby greasy man, his eyes were shining, and he said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, you haven't been here for a few days......

"Shopkeeper Tong, how dare you serve the wine yourself...... The young man in white reached out and took the plate in the fat man's hand and found an extra pot of wine.

"Mr. Zhou is a distinguished customer, the guy in the store has no eyes, in case he collides with you, the villain can't afford it" Although the fat man was talking to the young man in white, he glanced at the other two with an eye that was not easy to find.

Chen Zhenyi found that in addition to the shrewdness of a businessman, there was a hint of sharpness in this person's eyes, and his seemingly casual glance showed his vigilance and suspicion. Thanks to Chen Zhenyi's self-cultivation of the Taishang Induction Chapter, he can observe the subtle changes in his expression, which is difficult to detect before he is replaced.

The fat shopkeeper exchanged a few words with the young man in white, and then turned to leave, seeing that his steady pace and delicate mind were by no means an ordinary wine shop shopkeeper.

"Sir, this person is a little strange......" Chen Zhenyi said in a low voice.

The young man in white laughed and said loudly: "Taste it, this Nanyang rice wine is a good wine......

In a tea shed about 500 steps to the left of the restaurant, two men dressed in black were bowing their heads and whispering. Looking at the figures of the two, they look like battle-hardened soldiers, even if they are sitting, they are still tall and upright, and one hand habitually holds the steel knife placed on the table.

From time to time, they looked up at the liquor store, observing the three people drinking in the liquor store.

After a while, another man in black came over and sat opposite the two, leaned forward, and whispered, "That woman went to the inn."

"Well, keep staring!" One of the older men in black commanded in a low voice.

The man nodded, got up and left, and in the blink of an eye he was down an alley.
