Chapter 35: Legend and History
Wang Yu's eyes widened and he looked at the shops on the other side of the portal, this big shop in the downtown area, at least the size of five or six Wang Yu's wooden houses.
"No......, am I mistaken?"
Wang Yu rubbed his eyes with his right hand, then raised his head, looked at it word by word, and read it in his mouth:
"Xianglin grocery store."
My God, how long has this businessman been in the south, and it hasn't been two months, how did he do it, and it has developed like this?
Xianglin grocery store is composed of two floors, the whole is a triangular building, the entire exterior wall is painted with red paint, it looks very festive, the first floor has two open doors, a well-dressed front desk, two uniformly dressed service personnel, from their words and deeds can be seen to be very polite, the second floor is some small wooden tables, there are many mercenaries dressed up on it, there are special children pouring tea, there are not many two-story buildings in Yuelong City, which means that people sitting on the second floor can look down on most of the city.
"Fortunately, I was 'pulling out a knife to help' at the beginning, instead of turning a blind eye and hissing ......"
While being surprised in his heart, Wang Yu's body couldn't help but walk towards the shop opposite.
This is the street of the downtown street, opposite is the portal, next to the city gate of Yuelong City, after the city gate is the road to the north, from time to time you can see some merchant teams coming in from the city gate, after the investigation of the guards, came to the side door of this shop, and then there are special personnel in the store to count the goods.
Wang Yu came to the front desk of Xianglin's grocery store, and the front desk was a rather old middle-aged man with no big belly, only a smiling face.
"This guest, what you want to see, what you want to pick, it's all here." The front desk stretched out his hand to pull the rope next to the window, and with the sound of ping-pong, various wooden signs fell from the building above the front desk, which were written with different classifications, namely: travel, weapons, medicines, daily necessities, bodyguards, etc.
"I want to ask, how did your boss make his fortune? I remember coming here some time ago, he was still a stall setter. ”
Wang Yu raised his own questions.
In the face of Wang Yu's question, the middle-aged man happily explained to him, and the words in his mouth were almost quite proficient without pause.
"Our boss Xianglin, he, is a genius of business, isn't this the recent opening of a city in the north, he seized the opportunity, vigorously promote the northern tourism industry on the street, people are very yearning, but no one can protect the light tourism, so he relied on his own connections, and established his own bodyguard industry, so in just ten days, our Xianglin grocery store business is booming, in recent days and down the largest store in the downtown street, it can be said that the time and place are favorable, It's a miracle in the business world. ”
“……”
Wang Yu smiled and listened to the explanation at the front desk, and after leaving Xianglin grocery store a few meters, the expression on his face immediately changed to an unbelievable look, how long has it been since it became a business miracle?
After a short period of adjustment, Wang Yu patted his face with both hands to make himself sober, and he would see the teacher later.
……
Walking in the familiar downtown street, Wang Yu's thoughts couldn't help but go back to the past, after a short memory, he found that he had come to the end of the street, the living environment here is very quiet, very suitable for the elderly, Wang Yu walked to one of them, where there was an old man in the courtyard with a kettle watering flowers, Wang Yu bypassed the fence composed of bamboo, came to the gate, knocked on the door.
"Who?" The old man's soft voice came.
Wang Yu was about to speak, when the old man opened the door, and after finding that it was his little apprentice outside, the smile on his face increased, and he hurriedly took the other party's hand and let Wang Yu sit in the courtyard.
The two were chatting, Wu Changqing suddenly slapped his thigh and hurriedly walked to the house.
"Why did you forget the business, Xiaoyu, you wait here, I'll bring it to you."
Smelling the fresh fragrance of flowers in the yard, Wang Yu's mood was much better.
Soon after, Wu Changqing walked out with a bag of books wrapped in gray-brown old cloth.
"Xiaoyu, this is what my teacher gave me before I came here, now, I will give him to you, you must use it well in the future, and you must not do evil."
"I made a note of it, teacher." Wang Yu replied seriously.
After Wang Yu took the bag of books, he chatted with the teacher again.
"Teacher, can you tell me the story of your time in the north, and what happened to you?"
Wang Yu asked sincerely.
I saw Wu Changqing wipe his beard, close his eyes, and fall into memory.
"I may not have experienced much of the big things, because I was your age and had already come to the south, but it doesn't hurt to tell you about it, and few people like to hear about this kind of thing."
Wu Changqing turned his head sideways, took a sip of tea, and said slowly:
"I was a 20-year-old adjutant who was selected, and at the age of 21 I obtained the power of the underworld in the Northland, and I spent a full 2 years from the first level to the fourth level, and then I was elected as the reincarnation envoy in the city, I was 23 years old that year, just like you, but my reincarnation envoy in the city has not been a full year, and I was notified that the south needs an instructor, let me go to the south to support, when they are the instructor of the reincarnation envoy, I didn't care at the time, so I followed that group of people to the south with full of enthusiasm, and I was assigned to Yuelong City, Maybe my teaching style was too strict, and few people liked me, until I retired at the age of 60, and it didn't end. ”
Speaking of this, Wu Changqing changed his words: "If it's a big thing, I really didn't experience it back then, but I've heard people mention that I was particularly strange when I was 21 years old, I only recruited 100 reincarnation envoys that year, but I didn't expect to announce the expansion of enrollment the next day, and the expansion was expanded to 1000 people, at that time I signed up and was successfully selected, I heard others say that it was because the Beidi Prefecture participated in a very large battle, and the personnel suffered heavy losses, and now in retrospect, it was true, because there were actually quite a lot of reincarnation envoys in the south at that time, The reason why they are looking for instructors can only be a lack of manpower, after I came to the south, the facts also told me that my guess was correct, there are basically not many reincarnation envoys of level 4 or above in Nandi Prefecture, there are probably only about twenty. ”
The Northern Prefecture expands its recruitment of 1,000 reincarnation envoys a year, and there are only more than 20 reincarnation envoys above level 4 in the Southern Prefecture left? Wang Yu set off a storm in his heart.
He remembered that in the illusion, Su Heng mentioned to him that Nandifu was in trouble, and he caused trouble twice, the first time was when Beidifu wiped their buttocks, and the teacher should have encountered this for the second time, it seems that this second time is very troublesome, ......, Beidifu has suffered heavy losses.
So according to Su Heng, it should be this second trouble that directly led to the demise of the Northern Prefecture and the decline of the North.
Wu Changqing took a sip of tea, cleared his throat, and continued.
"Not long after I came to the south, I heard that there were several large-scale battles in the north, it is said that the color of heaven and earth changed at that time, and that year, there was a new Hades King Su Heng who had just been promoted to the eighth level in the North Prefecture, this person's mind I remember was confused, but he also disappeared in that battle, and in the end he didn't even find the body, after that, no one contacted us anymore, we completely lost contact with the north, and the north should have lost that battle, otherwise, The North will not fall to such a point, alas. ”
"Since that time, in fact, the three of us, sometimes go to the north to see, but the city and outside the city are full of evil spirits, some are former colleagues, which makes us how to do it, we have to reluctantly clean up the desert capital Mingguang City, now think about it, we are really lucky, just came to the south, and just lost our hometown, in fact, think about it from another angle, perhaps, the three of us were saved by our hometown, but that place we may not be able to go back to in this life, We don't have a home anymore. ”
When Wu Changqing said this, he raised his head in his old age, his eyes were closed, his eyes were a little moist, and his face naturally revealed his longing.
Wang Yu took out some tissues made in Nandifu from his long coat and handed them to his teacher, the reincarnation envoy of Beidifu in front of him, an old man who missed his hometown.
Looking at the teacher who was caught in sad memories, Wang Yu wiped his tears for him.
"Teacher, everything will be fine, I believe that in the current era, the north will definitely recover, and you will definitely be able to return to your hometown again." Wang Yu said firmly.
After that, Wang Yu talked to the teacher about his new team members, and told how the captain woke them up, and after the teacher listened, his originally sad face immediately had a slight smile.
After seeing that the teacher's mood was stable, Wang Yu left with peace of mind, and after closing the door, he stayed outside the door for a while, observing the teacher's emotional changes, and found that everything was normal, and then left.
On the way, Wang Yu carefully combed through the information he got in his mind.
"Su Heng was promoted to the Hades King in the year when the teacher left the north, and he also participated in the battle, and the Hades King of the Northland at that time should have ...... Nine! Yes, nine, what Su Heng showed in the illusion was nine chairs, nine Hades kings, all defeated, what level was the other party, so terrifying. ”
"By the way, there is also the Hades King of Nandi Mansion participating in this, that is to say, the original battle is already the ceiling of the human race, even if it is so, have you lost......"
"The two troubles that Su Heng said, the second time can be determined to be the year when the teacher left, it should be around 960 to 970, after that, there was a riot in the north, I was born in a riotous environment, and was later taken to the south by my uncle."
"That boy! That young man had an inevitable relationship with the second trouble that Su Heng said. ”
Wang Yu remembered at this moment that when he was psychic in the ideal city, the old messenger told him about the "boy", the "boy" with the ability to devour.
