Chapter 8: The Wild Goose City

Outside the Baiyu Capital City, there are not only green mountains and green waters, but also a wild goose city.

In the heyday of foreign trade, there were always foreign businessmen who complained that they were not suitable for food and that the people in the capital were xenophobic, so they spontaneously set up a canteen on the edge of the capital for foreigners to eat. After that, it received more and more customers, not only foreigners came here, but also attracted many locals who were interested in foreign food, and it grew bigger and bigger, and gradually developed into a unique foreign food city. It not only provides food, but also accommodation, and most of the foreigners who come to the capital live in Dayan City.

"It's been a long time since I've seen such a prosperous appearance of Dayan City."

As soon as he walked to the vicinity of Dayan City, Ye Xingchuan was attracted by the lively and cheerful appearance of people coming and going, and couldn't help but sigh.

Zhou Song didn't answer, because in the previous life, Dayan City was ordered by her personally. At that time, the foreigners came to attack, and Zhou Song ordered all the foreigners in the country to be hanged, and Dayan City, where the foreigners gathered, bore the brunt. She hadn't seen the most fireworks in Dayan City, but she had seen the most terrifying time, like a purgatory on earth.

"Xiaochuan, when have you been to Dayan City, why don't you know?"

Ye Mu was supported by Ye Xingchuan, and when she heard his sigh, she had doubts.

"It's nothing, it's just passing by before."

Ye Xingchuan and Ye's mother said that they met a foreign friend in the city and invited them to visit together, although Ye's mother muttered in her heart, she still agreed.

When he was in a hurry, Zhou Song greeted Ye Xingchuan and briefly introduced the matter of Wangyue Tower to him.

Ye Xingchuan is not unfamiliar with Xiao Bei, Xiao Bei is the most loyal person to her after Zhou Song ascended the throne, Zhou Song canonized Xiao Bei as the general of the expedition to the west, and asked him to lead the army to conquer the Eagle Kingdom, there was a rumor among the people: it was said that the prince of the Eagle Kingdom was confused by the beauty of the empress of the dynasty, and was willing to betray the motherland for the empress in order to please him, and even gave up the motherland, just to smile at Bo Hongyan. But before he could win, Xiao Bei died on the battlefield.

The most eye-catching thing about this kind of rumor is the death of one party, the so-called tragedy, which seems to be remembered by the world, and even makes people lament and sing about right and wrong.

Ye Xingchuan once thought that Xiao Bei was a generation of heroes, although he was the prince of the enemy country, but his courage and strategy were admirable, after hearing the rumors, although he was disappointed, but he never took it seriously, and felt that the world was vulgar and boring, and he could shed tears for this kind of bad drama.

"Is all that is said to be true?" This question haunted him for a long time, and he could not believe that anyone could turn his back on his country so easily.

"You mean, General Xiao betrayed the country for the female emperor and died on the battlefield?" Zhou Song scoffed, "It's a mixed bag." ”

After getting this vague answer, Ye Xingchuan was even more confused, but he couldn't pull his face down to ask, so he had to give up.

After walking for a while, the three of them walked to Xiao Bei's residence.

It is located in the center of Dayan City, it was originally the most prosperous restaurant in Dayan City, it was bought by Xiao Bei, after a little transformation, it invited all the gentles, the banquet was held for three days and three nights, singing during the day, setting up a banquet at night, so unhappy, people who have been here have commented that this is the heavenly palace on earth, forgetting day and night, happy and free, three days is just like a flick of the fingers, which makes people have endless memories.

"Brother Ye, I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't know how it's been lately?"

Hearing that Ye Xingchuan was coming, Xiao Bei came out to greet him with a smile, as if he was receiving friends who had been separated for several days.

"I've been waiting for Brother Ye's news for the past few days."

Although Ye Xingchuan was fully prepared, he was still a little overwhelmed by Xiao Bei's enthusiasm: "I'm sorry, I made Xiao Gongzi wait for a long time." ”

Xiao Bei is a keen person, and he saw Ye Xingchuan's discomfort at a glance, and he didn't reveal it with a smile on his face: "...... these two are?" ”

"This is my mother, this ...... It's a friend. ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Bei came to Mother Ye: "I should have come to visit my aunt, but today I let my aunt deign to patronize the cold house, it's really ashamed." ”

"It's supposed to be that we're bothering you." Ye Mu is a poor people, how can she know any etiquette, but she was coaxed by Xiao Bei's words to smile.

Xiao Bei has always been good at dealing with women, no matter what age he is, when he is with him, everyone is praised and likes him very much.

Obviously only fifteen years old, when it comes to sweet words, Zhou Song is smiling on the side, he just wants to end the greetings quickly and get straight to the point.

It's a pity that Xiao Bei is a talker, and he was stunned for a long time gossiping, so he arranged a place for them to live and let Ye's mother rest first.

Xiao Bei has a big heart on the surface, but his mind is very bright, and when he heard Ye Xingchuan's visit and saw that he brought someone, he knew what was going on.

"Oops, I didn't expect to meet Brother Ye again, it would be such a scene."

"It's really troublesome for Xiao Gongzi," Ye Xingchuan was cautious.

"Don't bother, get acquainted, if it weren't for Brother Ye's help, Miss Yue's life would be in jeopardy."

"Miss Yue, how are you doing?" As soon as he heard Yue Lang mention, Zhou Song thought of the second lady's out of control before, and couldn't help but interject.

"Oh? This girl also knows Miss Yue? ”

Zhou Song nodded, Xiao Bei saw that Ye Xingchuan had no scruples, so he spoke freely: "Miss Yue is no longer in trouble, but occasionally she will talk to herself alone, and she doesn't matter." ”

Xiao Bei paused and continued: "I won't hide it from you, Miss Yue is my compatriot from the Heavenly Eagle Country, otherwise, I won't easily wade into troubled waters. ”

As soon as these words came out, Ye Xingchuan couldn't understand even more, Xiao Bei was clearly a person with family and country feelings, why he did such a ridiculous thing in his previous life, and he still fell into the mouth after his death.

"I have always heard that lovers in your country will use a bell as a token of love, and even if they are separated in the future, they can meet again through the bell prompt."

"The girl is right," Xiao Bei smiled, "After chatting for so long, you haven't asked the girl's name?" ”

"Zhou Song." Zhou Song didn't want to deal with him, so he simply dropped two words neatly.

In the face of Zhou Song's faux pas, Xiao Bei was not angry, and said good-naturedly: "Miss Zhou is interested in our love token? ”

Zhou Song didn't answer and asked: "Does Xiao Gongzi know a person named 'Baili'?" ”

"Baili?" Xiao Bei thought for a moment, "This question, I'm afraid you can ask Miss Yue." ”

Yue Lang is a typical beauty in the Western Regions, with three-dimensional and delicate facial features, tall and straight, but suffering has cast a shadow on her beautiful face. In the Moon Tower before, Zhou Song didn't see it very clearly, but after Yue Lang was carefully dressed up this time, it was even more beautiful.

As soon as he saw Ye Xingchuan, Yue Lang saluted: "Thank you for the son's life-saving grace, the slave family can't repay it." ”

Ye Xingchuan was dumbfounded, and hurriedly said that it was okay, but Zhou Song could only smile bitterly when he saw it.

"Miss Yue, this is Brother Ye's friend, Miss Zhou Songzhou." Xiao Bei introduced on the side.

"Miss Zhou." Yue Lang saluted her politely.

The people were no longer polite, and sat down together and talked.

"Baili ......" Yue Lang heard this name, and like the second lady, he muttered to himself, as if he remembered something far away, "I know a businessman named 'Yue Baili'." ”

"Yue Baili is very famous among the common people, he is handsome, can speak, well-informed, and is very popular." Yue Lang recalled carefully, and the soft voice was like a trickle, infiltrating the listener's heart, "Later, he was with a beautiful woman and started a family, which became a good story." ”

"And then?" Zhou Song desperately wanted to know the relationship between Yue Baili and Yue Lang.

Yue Lang shook his head: "I can't remember clearly......" After speaking, he frowned, said that he had a headache, and went back to his room to rest.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that she is hiding something, although Zhou Song does not say it on the surface, she is anxious and very irritable.

After Yue Lang left, the three of them fell into an eerie silence.

Perhaps seeing Zhou Song's anxiety, Xiao Bei took the lead in breaking the embarrassment: "It's hard to come here, do you want to go out for a walk together?" ”

It's almost night, and it's the most lively moment in Dayan City, where the stalls and vendors are calling hard, and the theater in the restaurant is crowded.

"Why are you distracted?" Ye Xingchuan walked to Zhou Song's side and asked puzzledly, he didn't understand Zhou Song's question about Yue Lang before.

"It's nothing ......" Zhou Song waved his hand, not wanting to say more.

"I think Miss Zhou has too many things on her mind, she just needs to play heartily all night, and the knot will be solved naturally."

Xiao Bei said it lightly, and Zhou Song also wanted to have fun, but when she thought of the tragic scene in her previous life, she always felt uneasy in her heart.

In the end, Xiao Bei handed Zhou Song the same food, and said: "This is our special delicacy over there, called 'jasper cake', Miss Zhou to try it?" ”

Zhou Song looked at the white and green, like a cake with good jade, and took a bite of the letter suspiciously.

She only took a bite before she immediately spit it out: "Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

This pastry is sour and astringent, not to mention not tasty, it can be said that it is very unpalatable. Zhou Song's eyebrows were frowning sourly, looking at her embarrassed look, Xiao Bei smiled happily: "Miss Zhou, if you taste it again, it will become sweet immediately." ”

Zhou Song frowned, just as she wanted to get angry, she felt a sweet feeling in her mouth, and this wonderful feeling surprised her.

Xiao Bei was still smiling: "I didn't lie to you, did I?" This pastry, made from a mixed fruit called mandarin, is sour in the mouth, but slowly sweetened, and many people can't stop feeling this feeling. ”

"The aftertaste is sweet, but I won't try it a second time."

Zhou Song's answer caused Xiao Bei to laugh for a while, and the atmosphere finally eased a little.

The three of them found a place to eat, and between the staggered plans, Zhou Song seemed to see her wandering the rivers and lakes, at first she was just alone, silently pouring wine at the stall, celebrating her martial arts and refinement, and later there were more and more people drinking with her, and her smile became more and more, and the last time she drank, it was with Ye Xingchuan, and drank a life-killing wine.

After three rounds of drinking, there were only leftovers of cold rice in the restaurant, and Dayan City was also calm, only three teenagers were still walking on the street, and the strong alcohol disrupted their steps.

"Actually, I saw at first glance that this Brother Ye is not the Brother Ye I know." Xiao Bei's steps were crooked, talking about wine, Ye Xingchuan saw that his steps were unsteady, and hurriedly supported him.

"Then you say, who am I?" Ye Xingchuan was also a little drunk, and accompanied Xiao Bei to talk about wine.

"Miss Zhou, Miss Zhou is the Brother Ye I know."

"You're drunk." Among the three, only Zhou Song was still sober, and experience told her that she was drunk and misunderstood.

"I'm not drunk, let me tell you, the bell is on our side, and in addition to being used for love, it will also be used for a kind of witchcraft......"

"Witchcraft?"

"The soul summoning bell can not only change your sweetheart back to your side, but also turn the soul of a pair of beautiful people upside down."

"What did you say?!"

Xiao Bei's words immediately made Zhou Song and Ye Xingchuan completely drunk, and the two asked in unison.

As soon as Xiao Bei saw the reaction of the two, he laughed again: "I knew that you must not be just friends!" ”

After saying that, he fell asleep, leaving only Zhou Song and Ye Xingchuan to look at each other.
