In winter, it was dark early, and it was already night.

In the middle of the road, the official lights on the side of the road were lit up early, illuminating the entire street as if it were daytime. Shops, restaurants, taverns, gambling houses, flower buildings, ......, are full of lively scenes.

"How? Lively, right? ”

"Well, there are a lot of people."

Wenwu sat in the carriage, looking through the window at the night scenery along the way. The morning market and night market are the most fireworks in the world, and Xingdu is the capital of the Daxing Dynasty, and it is during the national examination, so it is naturally more prosperous.

Xingmin smiled: "Heh, it's just the beginning, and when dinner is over, there will be more people." ”

"Isn't there a curfew?"

"For as long as I can remember, it's not been banned here."

"Oh."

Wenwu nodded, and looked ahead, and could vaguely see the tall city gate.

If you look down from a high place, you can see more clearly that the Chaozhong Road connects the imperial city and the noon gate, which is the middle line of the entire Xingdu. It is said that the Hindu City is built on the dragon vein, the imperial city is the head of the dragon, the middle road symbolizes the dragon's back, and the noon gate is the tail, and the three are connected into a straight line, called the meridian, which just splits the whole city into two sides.

There is also a more mysterious saying, saying that the meridian is not only related to the dragon vein of the Daxing Dynasty, but also the qi vein of the entire Eastern Continent, which is exactly in the middle of the Oriental Continent......

In short, the reputation is not small.

Wenwu was a little disappointed. If you feel it carefully, the aura here is not much different from other places at all, and it is not even as rich as some remote areas. In his opinion, the so-called dragon veins, meridians, and qi veins are just ordinary roads that are a little wider, a little more crowded, and have a special location.

"This is a small amount, I remember that in the early years when I was still in the Department of Finance and Households, there were more than one million registered households in Hindu City, and at the end of the year, it was called a lively ......."

Xingmin chatted, said something about Xingdu, and talked eloquently, "Now there must be only a lot more...... a while ago, I heard that the civil area in the north has been overcrowded, and the third division is considering expanding the north wall outward and building another urn city. If it is completed, it will be able to accommodate hundreds of thousands of households in the Weihe area, and it can accommodate hundreds of thousands of households......"

Wen Wu listened, not much interest, only occasionally 'mmmmmmmmmm The carriage passed through the street, and from the side you could see a large two-front shop, with people coming in and out.

"That's Wanyaotang?"

"Huh? Well, you've seen it all. Xingmin took a look, nodded, and said with a smile: "Do you want to go over and have a look?" ”

"Forget it." Wen Wu shook his head.

"Oh, maybe I'll run into your teacher." Heungmin quipped.

"Oh? She's here all the time? "Wen Wu was a little curious. Qu Hong is definitely not here now, after all, she has just returned to Xingdu, and she is also full of everything, and she is in a hurry to even meet.

"How is that possible, just kidding."

"Then what does she usually do in the medicine hall?"

"I really don't know about this, I should be a mentor, right? Otherwise, can she still be allowed to sit in the church? Hehe. Heungmin said, laughing first.

"Perhaps......"

Not only did she sit in the hall, but she also went to a place like Yuanwang Town to sit in the hall ......, and she was slandered. But then again, in Xingdu is not like in Taiming Mansion and even less like in Yuanwang Town, Qu Hong, as a sixth-level pharmacist, is the ...... of the National Teacher Supervisor, the Medicine Hall, and the Pharmacist Association, and there are posts in every place, so it is really impossible to throw time in one place.

Now it seems that when she left Hindu, in addition to avoiding rumors, she probably also wanted to temporarily put aside the complexity of the world and find a place to study medicine and seek a breakthrough.

Wen Wu guessed in his heart, so he figured out Qu Hong's thoughts.

At this point, the carriage slowed down.

"Here we are."

"That's what you call a 'good place'?"

Wen Wu looked at it and raised his eyebrows.

At the corner of the intersection, there is an open archway, and the three words of 'Qixian Building' are red and clear, which is quite eye-catching. Inside, the pavilion and the courtyard, the cage is colorful, and the cars and horses are like dragons.

Heungmin laughed, "Haha, isn't it good?" ”

Wen Wu rolled his eyes and reminded: "Strictly speaking, I haven't worn a crown yet, you know the law and break the law." "Wearing a crown is sixteen years old, and in the Daxing Dynasty, not wearing a crown is equivalent to not being an adult.

Heungmin looked at him, and then slapped his head, "Oh, I forgot about this stubble......"

"Go home."

"Don't, it's all here, go in and have a look." Xingmin grabbed him, "Don't worry, let's just go in and have a good time, just do nothing else." ”

Wen Wu glanced at him, his face full of disgust. Come all the way to the Qinglou and join in the fun? Do nothing? Believe you.

Xingmin seemed to see his disdain, and immediately straightened his face with a serious expression, "What are you lying to?" 'Qixian Wendou', have you heard of it? ”

Wen Wu shook his head suspiciously.

"Okay......"

Xingmin smiled bitterly and explained: "Isn't this a national exam? Talented people from all over the world are here, and it is rare to get together, so it is natural to find an opportunity to learn from each other. It's a once-a-year show with a lot of fun, and if you miss it, you'll have to wait until next year. ”

"Studying ......, isn't the national exam enough for them to be busy?"

"The national examination is the national examination, it is the main examination, there are many restrictions, how can this private face-to-face fight be interesting?" Xingmin smiled: "Don't look down on it, there are so many talents in the world, and there are some strange people." This Qixian Lou Wendou, every year there will be one or two blockbuster wizards, such as last year's Lu Baichuan, with a song "Dream Wish" won the first place, but he was directly hired by the provincial minister as a guest, and he also got the scholarly intimacy of one of the four flowers of the Qixian Building, and became the guest of the scene......"

"Didn't you stay in Linhai Mansion last year?"

"Uh, that's the point? Get off, get off. ”

"Can I not go?"

"You're bored, too." Xingmin was a little helpless, and then whispered: "Qixian Tower is the industry of Linglong Island, and the previous owners are all in charge of Linglong Island stationed in Xingdu. ”

Wen Wu raised an eyebrow.

The Three Immortal Gates of the Eastern Continent, the Nine Sword Peaks of the West Mountain seem to be close to the National Teacher's Prison, the Cold Prison Fort is rich in ores and ordnance, and it has business dealings with the military department, but Linglong Island is a green building?

I'm afraid it's not that simple.

The immortal gate is not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the mortal world, which is the constraint of the 'immortal contract', but other than that, it does not mean that the immortal gate cannot do anything. The National Teacher Supervisor is independent of the government, right? The procurement of materials by the military department can be regarded as a normal market behavior, right? There is no restriction on the gray industry, in addition to the green house, there are also gambling houses, pawn houses, and auction houses......

These three immortal gates seem to be independent of the mortal world, but in fact, they are the realms that can be divided, and they are all carved up. I just don't know if it's a personal act, or is it the acquiescence of Xianmen?

Wenwu felt that the muddy water of Xingdu was getting muddy, and the more he looked at it, the more turbid it became.
