Morning cultivation once a day, this is a habit that Yan Xingguan can't move, although at his current realm, the true yuan is overflowing from time to time, even if he doesn't deliberately cultivate, it doesn't matter, but he still maintains this habit that he has cultivated since he was a child.

"Alas, I'm getting old, but after practicing for a while, my body is going to freeze!"

Yan Xingguan stretched his back, came to Meng Li's bedside, saw that the latter was in a daze, and said strangely: "What do you think again?"

Meng Li raised his head and said with a sad face: "Master, I heard that dreams are a harbinger of the future, do you think my dreams will come true." ”

As long as he thought of being tied up like a zongzi, Meng Li was very scared. He's too young to withstand the ravages!

Yan Xingguan was surprised: "Why did you think of asking this?"

Dreams are such a wonderful thing, and it is not impossible to say that it is an omen of the future, and some martial artists who have cultivated to a certain level can indeed predict blessings and misfortunes through dreams. But most people's dreams are unintelligible.

But even so, dreams are still a good thing to hope for, and in some places a whole philosophical system has been developed from it.

Just like Yunmeng City in the extreme east of Hanzhou in Northern Liang, it is to regard dreams as divine revelations, and people living in Yunmeng City have long regarded dream learning as a part of life, and almost everyone can interpret dreams.

Dreams are broad and complex, easy to learn but difficult to master. Different people interpret dreams, and from different angles, the things they interpret will inevitably be different.

Yan Xingguan had also been to Yunmeng City and dabbled in dream science, but he didn't know if these doctrines, which had been accumulated by countless people from generation to generation, could really predict the future. After all, even he didn't reach the realm of pre-dreaming.

What Yan Xingguan couldn't do, Meng Li naturally couldn't do, in other words, his dream was just a dream, as for being tied into a dumpling and hanging up with a hammer in a dream?

Meng Li did have a dream of mining, and it was still a gold mine, but now he is not rich enough to rival the country! The reason why he is worried is because of the uneasiness in his heart, I don't know if it is because of today's action, Meng Li always feels that something is wrong.

"Master, do you think there will be something wrong with our actions today?"

Yan Xingguan said proudly: "With the master here, what can happen?" said and glanced at him dissatisfiedly, obviously with the intention of beating.

Seeing this look, Meng Li couldn't cry or laugh. How strong his master is, Meng Li has never known, so he took this opportunity to take a look.

The two of them had breakfast, and then walked outside, outside the gate of the Li Mansion, there was a carriage waiting for a long time. There was a man in the car with a whip, it was Wu Zi'an.

When Wu Zi'an saw Yan Xingguan's master and apprentice, he drove the carriage over and stopped in front of the master and apprentice.

Meng Li looked at the carriage with a somewhat surprised expression. It wasn't that he hadn't seen a carriage before, but it was the first time he had seen such a magnificent carriage as it was in front of him.

Mahogany gold paint, hanging beads inlaid with jade, the roof pattern of a colorful phoenix, do fluttering wings to fly, vivid. A gorgeous phoenix tail hangs down, which is where the car door is.

Meng Li was staring at the colorful wooden door when he heard the creaking of a wooden shaft getting louder and louder, and in the blink of an eye, the two heavy mahogany doors were slowly pushed open from the inside out.

A head poked out from behind the door, the last person they were going to walk with today.

Looking at Li Qifeng, who poked his head out of the carriage, Meng Li felt a little jealous in his heart.

The son who was born in a big family is really different, and this carriage is almost as big as Uncle Meng's big ship. You must know that a boat is the "ration" of a family in Mengjia Village for a lifetime!

Once upon a time, Meng Li's dream was to have a big boat of his own. Just because she has a boat, my mother can work less.

Yan Xingguan boarded the carriage, saw that Meng Li was in a daze, reached out and knocked on the door, and the crisp sound pierced his ears, waking Meng Li up from that sad time.

"It's time to go. ”

Yan Xingguan said softly and didn't ask anything. Li Qifeng, who was dressed in white on the side, looked puzzled, looking like he wanted to say something and wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask.

Meng Li nodded and boarded the carriage in silence.

Wu Zi'an, who was sitting on the wheel, held a horsewhip, and when he saw that everyone had gotten into the car, he gently danced the horsewhip in his hand.

The brown horsewhip, which is usually maintained with palm oil, resembles an enraged poisonous snake, and the tough whip head is whipped on the horse's abdomen, instantly cutting off a row of hair, leaving a whitish mark.

Just as the young and strong horse raised its hooves and let out a high-pitched neigh, it pulled the carriage and drove slowly, and the two round wheels pressed a faint trace on the street.

Leaning on the Water Martial Arts Hall, it is closed today.

Some of the apprentices who came to the martial arts field in the morning light and prepared for the morning exercise saw a scene that they had hardly seen in the past ten years. The martial arts hall, which always leaves its doors open on weekdays, is closed today!

In this country, the martial arts hall is a special profession, responsible to the imperial court and serving the people. Many martial artists say behind their backs that opening a martial arts gym is equivalent to losing their freedom. All year round, no matter how cold or hot it is, you have to spend it in the martial arts hall.

This is also the reason why most of the martial artists who passed the martial arts assessment eventually gave up opening martial arts gyms. In their opinion, opening a martial arts gym is more like being a businessman than a Jianghu person.

The martial arts hall, which almost never closes, suddenly closed its doors. There is usually only one case, and all the people in the martial arts hall are gone.

In the center of the town, on the main street of the water town, the martial arts hall gathered in front of the yamen.

Xue Zheng, the owner of the martial arts hall, was anxiously waiting at this time, his eyes wandering, looking at the street from time to time.

Half an hour later, a luxurious carriage with a vivid colorful phoenix painted on the top slowly emerged from the street opposite the palace.

The Li family, who is afraid of making a big splash, is very low-key in any way, but in terms of travel, it is unusual, this is almost the most luxurious carriage in the city, and it is probably the only thing that the Li family can handle.

Seeing the Li family's iconic Caifeng car, Xue Zheng's eyes lit up, and his nervous mood eased a lot.

He got into the carriage, nodded to Wu Zi'an, who was in charge of driving, and came to the side of the carriage, and walked with the carriage until it stopped in front of the government gate.

Xue Zheng stepped to the car door and raised his hand against the car door.

He raised his hand, not to open the door, but as a signal.

The group of martial arts halls who came with him, when they saw this gesture that was too familiar to be more familiar, they instantly lifted their spirits, ran behind Xue Zheng, and lined up: "Welcome Senior Yan." ”

The shouts, which I don't know how many times I had practiced, reverberated the entire street as if they were coming from the mouth of a person.

The door of the car with the colorful phoenix tail slowly opened, Yan Xingguan stepped out of the carriage, looked at Xue Zheng, who was nervous and uneasy, and asked, "Have you brought all the things?"

The 20,000 taels of tax silver collected by the water town last year were all stored in the government office, and if they wanted to take it out, they had to have the escort procedures issued by the imperial court, and this is why they set the meeting place here today.

It is obviously more convenient to go directly from the Li Mansion to the Mansion than to go to the Martial Arts Hall.

Yan Xing looked at the gate of the mansion and said, "Since they are all here, let's go in." ”

After he finished speaking, the person did not move, obviously not intending to take out the tax money himself.

Xue Zheng said embarrassedly: "This, I'm afraid I have to wait." ”

"Why?"

Yan Xingguan turned his head and looked directly at Xue Zheng. His cultivation was so terrifying, the two eyes that were like substance, almost like a pair of cold iron guns, immediately made Xue Zheng feel a huge pressure.

Xue Zheng was sweating profusely and said, "Also, there is still one person missing." ”

"Missing someone?"

Xue Zheng's answer made Yan Xingguan a little surprised, with his identity, it was unbelievable that someone wanted him to wait.

As if he was afraid that the other party would be angry, Xue Zheng hurriedly explained: "It's my brother, he thought of a way to help his predecessors go without fail, and now he is arranging it, so he has delayed some time." ”

After that, Xue Zheng explained the method he had heard from Xue Qi again.

Yan Xingguan had no intention of letting people interfere, but after all, the Xue family brothers had good intentions, and he didn't have much to say. After all, this is their own business.

"Then wait a little longer!"

Zhang Song is not a person who can easily be affected by work, but after the incident the night before, his mood was terrible. There are people who are beyond the law, which is incomprehensible to him.

After sending Meng Jiangxi away and giving himself a full day off, Zhang Song's mood finally improved.

After a solid sleep, Zhang Song, who was rejuvenated again this morning, came to the front yard of the government office from the dormitory in the backyard early, and wanted to sweep the dust in the yard before opening the door. One was defenseless, and was startled by an inexplicable cry.

"Who is making a loud noise outside the palace this early in the morning?"

Zhang Song looked angry, threw aside the broom that still had a small half of the branch, and raised his leg to walk out of the door, but before he could reach the door, the sound from outside the door made him feel like falling into an ice cave, and there was a sound that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

"Why did this demon come here? Did he come to see if I let people go?"

Zhang Song was a little panicked.

He met Yan Xingguan twice, and the feeling left was not very good.

No, I can't let him see me.

Zhang Song picked up the broom and ran to the backyard like a fly, but as for the half-cleaned yard, he couldn't take care of it anymore.

When he came to the backyard, it happened that a young catcher came out of the room, and Zhang Song threw the broom over without saying a word.

Holding the sudden broom, he was stunned and said, "Boss, what do you mean by this?"

Zhang Song stretched out his hand and pointed to the front yard, "You, go over and sweep the yard." ”

"Huh?" the catcher thought he had misheard, and didn't react for a while.

I've been with the boss for so long, and I've never done this kind of rough work!

"Ahhhhhh

Poor little catcher, he just entered the second forging a few years ago, not to mention whether the true qi has been practiced to the buttocks, even if he mobilizes all the true qi in his body to protect it, he can't bear Zhang Song's kick that is more angry than reprimand.

Caught off guard, Xiao Yu almost doubted his life. He pouted, rubbed his ass aggrievedly, and although he looked reluctant, he still walked out under Zhang Song's gaze that was almost about to split his eyes.

Xiao Yu walked quickly to the front yard, Zhang Song breathed a sigh of relief, and while secretly praying for Xiao Yu Kuai, he ran to the class room and hid.
