Xianyang City does not have a city wall, but the imperial city has a city wall.

The walls of the Imperial City were so high that none of the dwellings within a mile outside the Imperial City could exceed the height of the walls. This ensures that every subject will have their heads tilted when they look at the imperial city, and a sense of solemnity will arise from it.

Even if you look up, you can only see the roof of Afang Palace, and most of the buildings in the imperial city are blocked by this wall, which is full of mystery.

The only building that can be seen clearly from outside the city is the Tianshu Tower.

In addition to this, almost all of them are shrouded in the shadow of the imperial city.

Although Hu Minzhi and Du Yu were swallowed up by the shadow of the imperial city, Wuji standing on the terrace also looked very small. The tall walls stretched out to both sides, like an endless cliff, blocking the sky in front of him and making him breathless.

If you want to cross this cliff and get some fresh air, there is only one way: enter the Heavenly Academy and step on the Heavenly Book Tower.

"Master!" Lin Fei rushed over, his steps were agile, but he was silent. Reaching the peak of the archer, his steps became lighter and lighter. Seeing the blade quietly spinning in front of Wuji, Lin Fei laughed.

"The owner's mind is getting stronger and stronger, and it is gratifying. ”

Mowgli smiled slightly and put the blade away. "How are the two rammers doing, and have they improved?"

"Although the progress is not fast, they can endure hardships, they have mastered the basic pace, and two more days of practice will come in handy. ”

"Good. What about you, have your endurance improved?"

"It's not ideal, and at the moment it can only be guaranteed to be within 100 arrows. After 100 arrows, the hit rate will drop rapidly. ”

Wuji thought for a moment: "Keep practicing." Also, if possible. Teach stones with crossbows. ”

Lin Fei was a little stunned: "Master, where can I find a crossbow suitable for stones?"

Wuji misses the giant crossbow in the bunker of the Yu Republic of China. "Find a log instead of a crossbow arm first, let him practice the basics and adjust his muscles first. ”

Although Lin Fei didn't quite know Wuji's intention to do this, he readily agreed, and went to the firewood room in the backyard to find the heaviest firewood and let the stone hold it. Practice aiming.

Stones can easily lift heavier things, but if you want to keep the wood stable, keep it for a while. It's not an easy task. After a while, the stone was sweating with nervousness, his arm was sore, and the firewood, which had been thought to be light, slowly became heavy.

But. This is Mowgli's command. Stone gritted his teeth and persevered, practicing repeatedly. The left arm is tired to train the right arm, and the right arm is tired to train the left arm.

In the next few days, the four of Wuji practiced hard, only Xiao Ziyue was the most relaxed, and together with the little beast cub, they ate and slept to their hearts, and woke up to eat.

Maybe it's because the food in the natural home is good. Not only did Xiao Ziyue gain weight, but her little face became round. Even the little beast cub has grown up a lot, and within a few days, it is the size of an adult dog, and it has begun to take on the power of flying into the sky to ward off evil spirits, and Xiao Ziyue can no longer hold it in her arms like a pet.

In the blink of an eye, Chinese New Year's Eve is here.

As soon as the sunset set behind the imperial city, the sky was not yet completely dark, and the sound of firecrackers sounded in Xianyang City. With a loud bang in the imperial city, like a trumpet blowing, more people began to set off firecrackers, which quickly spread throughout the city.

An explosion echoed above Xianyang City, and firelight flickered in the sky, covering the stars and decorating the dark night sky with brilliant colors.

The firecrackers and fireworks in the imperial city fully demonstrated the dignity and strength of the royal family, and one by one the firecrackers rushed into the sky, turning into a loud bang, and the flames illuminated the Tianshu Tower and the Crouching Tiger-like city wall. Under the illumination of the flames, the figures of the soldiers standing with halberds at the head of the city loomed, as if cast in iron, firmly guarding the heart of the empire.

Looking at the spectacular fireworks, Jing Sanhu's family, who had always been very happy, fell silent. At this time, they should also set off firecrackers at home to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, but now they can only send people under the fence, and they can't go back to their homes. Although the conditions here are hundreds of times better, they still miss their huts.

"The gold house, the silver house, is not as good as your own thatched house. Jing Sanhu sighed faintly.

"What do you say, you are not satisfied. Ni Yulan interrupted his emotion, but before the words fell, she sighed. "Don't think about it, hurry up and get the dumplings. Yangyang, don't put the rich dumplings in the master's bowl, please a good omen, start the new year, and be admitted to the Heavenly Academy. ”

"The master is so clever, what omen do you want to ask for. Jing Xiaoyang stretched out his hand and smiled: "Give it to me, I want my eyes to be bigger." ”

"Nonsense. Ni Yulan slapped Jing Xiaoyang's hand away. "Follow your father at home, marry your husband, he is your heaven, you have to focus on him, don't think about those useless. ”

"Hehe, mother, are you dreaming again? I'm just a maid now, not a concubine. He's just my master, not my God. ”

"Sooner or later, it will be. Ni Yulan pinched Jing Xiaoyang's face and said lovingly: "Girl, don't worry. The master has a lot to do now, and when he is free, he will definitely notice my daughter. ”

"Who's in a hurry!" Jing Xiaoyang rolled his eyes and wrinkled his nose.

"Aunt Ni......" Shi Yuling walked in with brisk steps, followed by a few Jian slaves. She glanced at the board full of dumplings and said with a smile: "The dumplings are all wrapped, do you have mine?"

Ni Yulan was very surprised: "Miss Shi, you are not ......"

"There are still guests coming later, you should hurry up and clean up, and I will start preparing immediately. ”

When Ni Yulan heard this, she didn't dare to slack off, and immediately made room. Shi Yuling pointed, and the slaves immediately started to do it, and after a while, they filled the board with all kinds of ingredients, and then they acted quickly with their hands and feet, chopping vegetables, plattering plates, and they were very busy.

Jing Xiaoyang's family of three saw each other and looked at each other. Jing Xiaoyang ran out and told Wuji the news.

Mowgli was sitting cross-legged on the couch, flying around the room with his mind controlling the blade. After a few days of practice, he has been able to move steadily with the blade within two feet, and can change the speed and angle of flight as he likes.

"Master ......" watched the blade shuttle back and forth in the room like a meteor, but Mowgli did not move, Jing Xiaoyang covered his mouth in surprise.

"Something?" Wuji beckoned the blade back, hid it in his sleeve, stood up, and looked at Jing Xiaoyang with a smile.

Jing Xiaoyang woke up like a dream and told the news that Shi Yuling suddenly rushed back.

Mowgli is also a little puzzled. Didn't Shi Yuling have a Chinese New Year's Eve banquet competition, how did he suddenly come here, what kind of noble person can make Shi Yuling give up such an important game?

Although curious, Mowgli also knows how to be a guest and can't meddle in things. He asked Jing Xiaoyang to inform Lin Fei and the others to stay in his room as much as possible, not to interfere with Shi Yuling, let alone to inquire.

Jing Sanhu's family was born in the common people, and they naturally have a sense of awe for a powerful person like the Shi family. Although Shi Yuling was very polite to their family because of the needle for Shi Yuling, they were still very knowledgeable. Don't be instructed by Wuji, immediately move the wrapped dumplings to the stove in the backyard.

When the dumplings were cooked and brought to the table, and everyone gathered around the table, ready to eat the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Shi Yuling walked in, untied his apron, and said with a smile: "How, just ready to eat?"

Xiao Ziyue stood up first, pounced, hugged Shi Yuling's neck, kissed her on the face twice, and looked behind Shi Yuling with a probing brain. Seeing that there was no one behind her, she blinked her eyes and looked at Shi Yuling curiously.

The little evil spirits also ran over, circling around Shi Yuling like a pug, his tongue dragged long, and he didn't have the self-esteem of a fierce beast at all.

Shi Yuling chuckled, patted Xiao Ziyue's buttocks, and touched Xiao Ziyue's head again: "It's growing so fast, I haven't seen it for a few days, and it's grown so big, it's really a divine beast." ”

Wuji stood up and greeted warmly: "Sister Shi, why don't you come and eat two bites?" Aunt Ni's dumplings are very good." ”

"No, I'm here to ask you. Shi Yuling said: "There will be a guest coming later, indicating that they want to see you." ”

"See me?" Wuji was stunned. "Who is it?"

"When you see it, you know. ”

Seeing Shi Yuling's mysterious look, Wuji didn't ask again, and ordered Lin Fei and the others to eat first, and followed Shi Yuling to the front yard. Shi Yuling asked people to serve tea, first gave a salute to Wuji, and then took out most of the purple jade and gently pushed it in front of Wuji.

"Mowgli, thank you Ziyu, I won't win without a fight. ”

Mowgli smiled. From Shi Yuling's face, he knew that it should be very smooth, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth and win without a fight.

But it's also practical to think about. If it is really as Shi Zhengqing said, this piece of purple jade is worth half of the Shi family's industry, then as long as the head of the Shi family is not broken, he will take Shi Zhengqing as the preferred heir of the head of the family, not to mention that with the purple jade, Shi Yuling also has a lot of advantages in kitchenware. With his help, Shi Yuling broke through the spiritual realm before the age of twenty and surpassed Shi Yuqi.

Whether it is financial resources or realm, Shi Yuling's father and daughter have enough obvious advantages, and it is not unusual to win without a fight.

"This piece of purple jade is a gift I gave to my sister. Wuji pushed Ziyu back again. "Pushing around, my sister is too out-of-the-box, right?"

"Mowgli, this is an amazing fortune, as a meeting gift, it is too valuable, I can't afford it, I can't accept it. ”

"You better take it, this kind of purple jade is really nothing to him. ”

A crisp voice sounded outside, the door curtain sounded softly, and Ying, who was dressed in men's clothes, stood at the door with a smile.

Wuji was overjoyed, and greeted him with an arrow, holding Ying Yiran's hand: "You...... Why are you here?"

"What, you don't want me to come?" Ying Yiran's face was slightly dilucent, and he gently broke free of Wuji's hand, and his eyes flowed, making a look. Wuji followed her gaze and looked out, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

An old man in a gray cloak with gray hair stood outside the door, and it was none other than the great teacher.

How is this possible!(To be continued......
