At the head of Changwu City, the man in the black coat looked at the river and suddenly smiled.

On the surface of the river, there is a man who stepped on a reed and crossed the river.

Fengshen is handsome, heroic, and a green shirt, floating out of the dust.

"Come on, warm a pot of good wine, the autumn cold is very tight, warm up your body. The man said.

The guard beside him looked confused, this city lord is a fierce man who dares to go to Nanjiang for winter swimming in the cold winter, when has he ever been afraid of the autumn cold in this area?

"By the way, I remember that it has to be Miaoyuxuan's Bishui Spring. The man added.

The people below hesitated in response, since the city lord personally named him, he naturally didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and hurriedly went to prepare.

The man looked up at the sky, then turned his gaze to a high-rise red courtyard in the east of the city, smiled lightly, and walked down the city with a light footstep.

At the head of the city, Chen Mingye had already led Xiaohong and the old man to line up and enter the Changwu City Gate.

"Boy, do you know what famous people are in the rivers and lakes today?" the old man suddenly turned his head to look at him and asked nonsensically.

Chen Mingye smiled: "Why are the seniors suddenly interested in this, do you still want to compete one by one?"

"You're talking a lot of nonsense," the old man glanced at him, "and if you know, say it quickly." ”

Chen Mingye didn't go around in circles, and said bluntly: "I was quite clear about the martial arts evaluation list in the past few years, and I think it shouldn't change much in the past few years." ”

"Hmm. The old man nodded and motioned for him to continue.

"There is no specific ranking on the martial arts evaluation list, and the rivers and lakes have always compared five swords, three guns, and two swordsmen. Chen Mingye thought for a while and said, "The five swords are the owner of the Eastern Wu Sword Village, the sword immortal of Chengshu, the swordsman of the Western Regions, and the sword man of Jiuding Mountain. ”

"Boy, don't you know how to count?" the old man glanced at him and snapped his fingers at him in a matter-of-fact manner, "You only reported four people to these five swords?"

"The seniors didn't know that the owners of Dongwu Sword Village were actually two people. Chen Mingye patiently explained.

"Oh, something interesting. The old man was stunned for a moment, and a smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

"The three guns are talking about Bu Yixian, the master of the gun path in Beizhou, the former general Gongsun Yan of the Han Dynasty, and Nie Yun, the current Changwu City Lord who became famous at a young age. Chen Mingye said this, but he unconsciously looked in the direction of the head of Changwu City, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"Oh, I said that the breath of that kid at the head of the city is so powerful, it turns out to be a martial arts master. The old man nodded.

"The double swordsman refers to Haoming's sword master, the current general of Zhenxi Tu Tianjiao, and the other is heard to be from the Western Regions, and he has met Tu Tianjiao several times, regardless of victory or defeat. ”

"Oh?" the old man looked at Jiangtou with interest, "Then I'm afraid I'll be lucky enough to see my true face today." ”

Chen Mingye was stunned when he heard this: "What does the predecessor mean, the one on the river is the sword master of the Western Regions?"

"It's inseparable, we're really in a hurry today. The old man laughed.

Chen Mingye squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and a touch of deep thought flashed in his eyes.

Xiaohong gently tugged at the placket of his shirt and said softly: "Little junior brother, let's find a place to eat, Xiaohong is hungry." ”

Chen Mingye smiled, reached out and touched Xiaohong's little head: "Okay, let's go to dinner." ”

And on the Nanjiang River outside the city, the green shirt who crossed the river with a reed looked at the head of Changwu City, which was close at hand, and laughed loudly: "Nie Yun, come out and fight!"

The man above the city stretched out his hand to stop the impulsive guards beside him, and said lightly: "Just look at it, by the way, this time, can you get a drink?"

"This time it was given by Miss Xiaocui herself, my lord, the wine has not yet been warmed. The guard hurriedly replied.

"Hahaha, that's it. The man looked up and laughed, a touch of pleasure stretched between his eyebrows, and he waved his hand casually, "Then come back and drink again." ”

Before he could finish his words, his body had already flown out. The generals at the head of the city watched this city lord go out to battle without the slightest worry, after all, in their impressions, this city lord who was obviously still very young, his prestige had already spread far and wide, and there was an endless stream of challengers, but he had not been defeated so far.

The old man who had just walked through the city gate seemed to feel something, and his footsteps paused slightly, and he looked out of the city.

"What's the matter, senior?" Chen Mingye asked as he noticed his movements.

"It's nothing, we seem to have to hurry up, the show is about to begin. The old man plucked his ears as he spoke, and narrowed his eyes in pleasure.

Chen Mingye smiled bitterly and shook his head, this senior is really a master who doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.

As the capital of a state, Changwu City is naturally more prosperous than Yueyang City.

Although it was already evening, there were only a few shops closing their stalls, and most of them were preparing for the night market one after another.

As an important town in Southern Chu, Changwu City not only has a solid city protection, but also various facilities in the city are extremely complete. Therefore, although it is still the hour of daylight, the red candle oil lamps are all brightly lit, and the red lights that are lit up early are not only for lighting, but also to protect against the invasion of ghosts and gods.

In that famous battle in the Spring and Autumn Period, tens of thousands of dead stained this majestic city inside and outside with blood, so 100,000 Luo Tian Dajiao were set up in the city, in order to transcend the soul of the dead and relieve the sins.

Chen Mingye took Xiaohong and deliberately did not pass by the city, took a slight detour, and went to an inn to rest.

As soon as I entered the inn, I was greeted by a fierce noise.

Chen Mingye frowned, but the old man beside him looked strange, glanced at him and said, "Stinky boy, order more food, the old man has been running with you for a day, and his stomach is almost hungry." ”

Chen Mingye nodded: "Senior, don't worry, the wine and food will definitely not treat you badly." ”

"Hehe, that's quite a bold word," the old man glanced at him, "Okay, don't talk about it, find a place to sit." ”

As soon as Chen Mingye found an empty table and sat down, the loud voices of several men at the table next to him had already pierced his ears.

"Brother, have you heard, the city lord has gone to fight again. ”

"It's not a common thing, you haven't heard of the most important thing, have you?"

"What's the matter?" a man on the other side couldn't help but come up.

"Hey, at the speed of your news," a man said loudly as he glanced around at the crowd around him triumphantly, "Let me tell you, today, Miss Yusheng of Miao Yuxuan has ascended to the top of the pavilion flower tower. ”

"Really?"

This news shook a thousand waves like a stone, causing all the people who were still talking about other things from all directions to gather their eyes.

"Of course it's true!" the questioned man looked unhappy and hurriedly said, "This is what my friend just saw, and he is already in a hurry to squeeze the front row." ”

"Hey, if this Yusheng girl is really willing to go out of the attic and go upstairs, will you still drink and joke here?"

"I ......," the man's face flushed anxiously, "I don't have any fucking money, can't I?"

As soon as the words of "hahaha......" came out, it immediately caused a burst of lively laughter from the whole inn.

"Dude, if what you said is true, I asked for your wine money today. A man suddenly spoke up.

"It's true!"

"Okay! I believe you this time, Xiao Er, come and settle the bill first, and settle that brother's together, Lao Tzu is going to grab the first position today!"

"Damn! Rather believe this time, if you can really be hit by Miss Yusheng, this life will be worth it......"

The man's words seemed to arouse the approval of many men in the inn, and they all hurriedly settled the bill, and rushed in the same direction when they went out.

Chen Mingye was stunned, this Miao Yuxuan, Yusheng, it sounds like a land of wind and dust, how can it be so lively, the men, women and children in this inn seem to know this name.

The old man also pricked up his ears and listened for a long time, touching his chin at the moment and not knowing what he was writing.

Xiaohong looked at the two people who suddenly looked a little strange with wide eyes and puzzled, and asked, "Little junior brother, old man, what's wrong with you?"

"Cough," the old man glanced at Chen Mingye, coughed and said, "Stinky boy, what are you stunned about, how to order food!"

Chen Mingye hurriedly beckoned Xiao Er over and asked, "Xiao Er, do you have any signature dishes here, introduce them to us." ”

"Okay," Xiao Er responded, and immediately reported a bunch of them, and by the way, he even recommended them with drinks.

"Okay, just do as you say," Chen Mingye nodded.

The old man glared at him and turned his head to look at the shopkeeper: "Little Er, what is the best wine of yours?"

"Speaking of this best wine, it is naturally Miaoyuxuan's Bishui Spring, but ordinary people can't drink it. Xiao Er said with admiration, then shook his head and sighed.

"What kind of place is this Miao Yuxuan, why do you keep listening to you talking?" the old man picked his nose and said with a strange expression.

"A few people don't seem to be from Jingzhou, but anyone who is from the boundary of Jingzhou generally knows the Miao Yuxuan of this Changwu City. Xiao Er smiled, revealing a look that a man understands.

"No, how can Qinglou be so famous?" Chen Mingye's eyes were a little weird.

"What Qinglou!" the shopkeeper called out at once, glaring at Chen Mingye with some anger, "Miao Yuxuan is not such a place. ”

Chen Mingye looked at his overreaction a little inexplicably, and said helplessly: "Okay, then you tell us about it." ”

"Do you know the rouge list on the rivers and lakes?" Xiao Er asked rhetorically.

Chen Mingye said with a smile: "Little brother, you can talk about it." ”

Xiao Er "snorted", and seemed to be still a little angry: "There are a total of ten people on the rouge list, these ten people are all beautiful women with talent and beauty on the rivers and lakes, I won't say more, but I only say one word, Miss Yusheng is on this rouge list!"

Chen Mingye looked at the shopkeeper's slightly flushed face playfully, and said with a smile: "Do you like that Yusheng girl of Miao Yuxuan?"

"You, you, you are talking nonsense!" Xiao Er stammered, and the whole person's momentum, which was still a little vigorous, suddenly withered.

The old man patted the table lightly: "Xiao Er, what about my food, don't want the best wine, you can't leave me, an old man, here, right?"

Xiao Er woke up like a dream, glared at Chen Mingye with some annoyance, and ran away in a hurry.

Xiaohong looked at Chen Mingye and grinned: "Little junior brother, you are so bad, you always bully others." ”

Chen Mingye touched his nose and coughed lightly: "Little girl, don't talk nonsense, I amused him a few words because I saw that little two were interesting." ”

Xiaohong pursed her lips and said, "You are obviously interested in Miaoyuxuan, take the opportunity to find out the news, I must report this matter to the master truthfully when I go back." ”

"......" Chen Mingye suddenly had a headache, this little girl is really a big ghost.

The old man looked at the two of them rather amusedly, and suddenly stretched out his withered hand at Chen Mingye.

"Senior, what are you?" Chen Mingye didn't understand what he meant for a while.

"It's been a little boring all these years, since the whole Jingzhou has heard of the famous name of the Yusheng girl, the old man is also a little itchy for a while and wants to go and see, kid, didn't you say that the cost is all-inclusive?"

"This ...... Senior, isn't this okay?" Chen Mingye was a little embarrassed.

"It's not good! It's not good!" Xiaohong seemed to be angry, her little hand slapped the table, her big eyes glared at Chen Mingye viciously, and she glanced at the old man by the way, and said loudly, "We have a limited amount of silver, so we have to save some flowers!"

Chen Mingye and the old man looked at the yellow-haired little girl in front of them, glanced at each other, and decisively chose to be silent.

When Xiao Er came over to serve the food, he glanced at the three people who didn't speak strangely, and then glanced at Chen Mingye fiercely, thought about it and still didn't speak, turned around and hurried away.

"Eat!" Xiaohong put the bowl on the table vigorously, her mouth puffing out.

"Eat and eat. Chen Mingye hurriedly nodded again and again.

The old man poured himself a glass of wine and sighed lightly: "The world outside doesn't seem to be very comfortable." ”

Chen Mingye laughed dryly, put chopsticks on the little girl, and did not answer.

The scene in the inn is just a microcosm of the entire Changwu City, after the news that the Yusheng girl climbed the top pavilion of Miaoyuxuan, the flow of people in the entire Changwu City is like crazy, and it continues to surge towards the east of the city.

On the top floor of Miao Yuxuan, a woman in a pale white palace dress looked faintly in the direction of the city, with a wide skirt behind her, showing grace and elegance. The black jade-like green silk is simply rolled into a flying fairy bun, and a few full and round jade white pearls are randomly embellished in the hair, making the cloud-like hair more soft and moisturized.

She looked back at the maid beside her, her beautiful eyes were full of brilliance, her red lips opened slightly, and she smiled lightly: "Xiao Cui'er, has our city lord come to beg for wine again?"

"Begged, according to the girl's meaning, this time I gave it. The maid behind him nodded in response.

"That'll be fine. The woman smiled faintly, "Let's just take a good look at it today." ”

"Girl, why did you answer that side today and give them the wine?" the maid seemed to be a little puzzled.

"Today, let's make him happy. The woman's eyebrows frowned slightly, and a touch of worry gently spread between her eyebrows, "If I can make him not worry, why should I hesitate so much." ”

The maid tilted her head, as if she was a little puzzled: "Girl, Xiaocui doesn't understand." ”

"It's okay, he just understands. The woman smiled, looked at the bustling crowd of His Excellency Lou, and her eyes were indifferent, "I just hope he doesn't get angry." ”

"Girl......"

"Bring me my sheng yaoqin. The woman sighed, "Today, it's time for me to help him once." ”
