Chapter 416: Strange
Lu Mingfei looked back, and saw that there was a column of cavalry coming in the direction of the mountain on the road, the first one was wearing a silver armor of Yanling, a white dragon horse under his crotch, and a black cloak behind him was flying and tumbling, heroic and mighty.
It was Nie Xingfeng.
A hint of panic immediately flashed on Commander Wang's face, and he hurriedly stepped aside to the side, and the hundreds of soldiers behind him also showed a serious expression, and knelt on one knee on both sides of the mountain road in a neat line.
Lu Mingfei was slightly stunned, he almost didn't recognize the other party, he hadn't seen him for a few months, Nie Xingfeng had indeed changed a lot, not because of the change in her appearance, but because of the majesty and momentum of a commander on her.
Without waiting for Lu Mingfei to step forward to greet him, a person behind Nie Xingfeng rode out, it was Chu Ning, after seeing Lu Mingfei, he couldn't wait to run forward, and shouted with some excitement: "Brother Lu, you ......"
She didn't finish a sentence, but she was stopped by Nie Xingfeng with an arm stretched out, and then she looked around at everyone and said coldly: "Who gave you the courage to dare to stop Lord Lu here?!"
Commander Wang's face had turned purple, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground, but he didn't know what to say, Lu Mingfei hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "It's a trivial matter, I also just arrived on the front foot." β
Nie Xingfeng turned over and dismounted and came to Lu Mingfei and said, "I don't know that Lord Lu is here, I don't want to be welcome, and I hope Lord Lu will not blame him." β
Lu Mingfei returned the salute with a smile, but there was a strange feeling in his heart, he always felt that Nie Xingfeng had become a lot stranger after not seeing him for a few months, the previous title had always been "Brother Lu", but now it has become "Lord Lu", the difference between one word and one word is very different.
Nie Xingfeng raised his hand and waved, and the sergeants on both sides immediately moved out of the way, and then she bowed down and made a gesture of please, saying, "I don't know what Lord Lu is doing here, please come into the camp and speak." β
Finally able to enter the barracks, Lu Mingfei suddenly had a sense of excitement, smiled and said: "I have nothing to do, there were once two broken tile houses in this mountain, I wanted to come over and take a look when I passed by, but I didn't expect ...... By the way, I forgot to congratulate Miss Nie, who is now the commander in chief, which is really gratifying. β
"Broken tiles?"
Nie Xingfeng frowned, and said with some embarrassment: "The mountains near here have been designated as military camps, and the garrison is stationed, I really don't know that there are two houses of Lord Lu, what do you think of this ......?"
Lu Mingfei laughed and said: "The whole world is not the king's land, since my two tiled houses have been requisitioned by the imperial court, then I will do my part to make some contributions, and when I arrive in the capital in the future, Nie Shuai will invite me to have a drink." β
Nie Xingfeng smiled yes, Lu Mingfei had no intention of entering the camp again, and the two of them exchanged pleasantries at the mountain pass for a while, Nie Xingfeng roughly introduced the follow-up battles in the Southern Wilderness, and then told the deployment of the garrisons in Nanfeng City, Feng'an City and other places one by one, Lu Mingfei was really difficult to be interested in these
, after a few polite words, he was about to leave.
Just as he was about to turn around, Chu Ning, who was behind Nie Xingfeng, finally couldn't hold it back, chased after Lu Mingfei's side and said, "Brother Lu, why are you just here and you're leaving, you have to live in the camp for a while, and now that there is no fight, I am almost bored to death every day when I stay here." β
Lu Mingfei smiled faintly, and finally found some long-lost kindness, but he didn't promise anything.
Chu Ning returned to Nie Xingfeng's side, took her hand and said, "Sister Nie, you can also help persuade Brother Lu to let him stay for a few days." β
Nie Xingfeng said with some seriousness: "Don't mess around, since Lord Lu is leaving, there must be something important on him, how can he delay with you here." β
Hearing her say this, the trace of hesitation that Lu Mingfei had just raised immediately disappeared, smiled and said, "I do have something to do, I'll come to you when I'm done." β
Being scolded by Nie Xingfeng, although Chu Ning was still reluctant, he didn't dare to say anything more, so he had to watch Lu Mingfei turn around and leave.
A few people hadn't gone too far, and they heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them, but they didn't expect Chu Ning to chase them back.
After jumping off the horse, Chu Ning said with some embarrassment on her face: "Brother Lu, don't get me wrong, Sister Nie is not ......"
Halfway through the words, he stopped again, and then he heard her sigh and say, "I don't know why, since she became this handsome, people seem to have changed." β
Lu Mingfei smiled and said: "These are all reasonable, since you are the commander of all armies, you must be strict with yourself, practice by yourself, and lead by example, do you think you are still the children of the rivers and lakes at the beginning?"
After leaving the mountain, the three of them walked towards Feng'an City, and along the way, Lu Mingfei seemed to have some things on his mind, all in Yu Yingxue's eyes.
"You comforted that Miss Chu before and said that the head is the Tao, why can't you figure it out when you come here?"
While speaking, the three of them were already outside Feng'an City, Lu Mingfei cleaned up his mood, put his previous inexplicable troubles behind, and strode towards the city.
Feng'an City has also changed a lot, and even the layout of the city has changed a lot, and many houses and houses have been built in the city, which should be a large number of people moving in after the war, making the city more lively and prosperous.
Another thing that is completely different is that there are many more people with cultivation in Feng'an City today, and along the way, the three of them have encountered a lot, and the realm is uneven, but it is very similar to Nanfeng City.
The three of them did not want to make extraneous branches, restrained their breath, and walked in the streets like ordinary merchants, or because of Yu Yingxue's country-like posture, which attracted pedestrians to stop and watch from time to time.
It was getting late, and after a while of casual shopping, there was no intention of lingering, and I planned to go out of the city overnight and go straight to Yanling Mountain, but I didn't know whether I knew it intentionally or unintentionally, and I happened to come to the silk village.
Lu Mingfei and Yu Yingxue
Invariably looked in front of the silk village, when Yu Yingxue led an old horse to shelter from the rain here vividly, the two looked at each other and showed a hint of smile, just at this time a few drizzles suddenly fell in the sky, which was very appropriate.
"It's easy to come back, eat a bowl of rice wine and noodles and then leave, it's not bad for kung fu. β
Touching the scene, Lu Mingfei suddenly became interested and planned to stay for a while, turned to the main street and looked forward with his memory, he bought a bowl of rice wine and noodles for Yu Yingxue on the noodle stall on the shore of Yufeng Lake, but when he found it again, the original noodle stall had long been missing.
Lu Mingfei laughed at himself, secretly scolding himself for being too naΓ―ve, a few years have passed, Feng'an City has changed several times, how could the small noodle stall be the same, just thinking about it, but was interrupted by the bustle and noise in front of him, and looked up to see that there was a large group of people gathered in front of the Yueyue Tower.
Curious, the three of them followed the noise, and when they came closer, they found that the original Invitation Moon Tower had also changed, the scale of the building had expanded a lot, and the plaque had been replaced with "Eternal Night Tower".
Seeing these three words, Lu Mingfei always felt a little familiar, and couldn't remember where he had heard it for a while, Yu Yingxue explained on the side: "Yongyelou was originally an underground organization specializing in bounty trading in the Southern Wilderness, and its bounty tasks are varied and varied, among which there are some murderous and murderous deeds, which cannot be put on the table, although it is called Yongyelou, but it does not really have this building, let alone blatantly open in the downtown area, this plaque should just be a coincidence." β
Hearing Yu Yingxue's reminder, Lu Mingfei immediately remembered that he had indeed heard of the existence of such an organization, but he had no specific contact and was not too impressed.
With the flow of people walking forward, just came to the front of the eternal night building, and saw that the original place where the Yueyue Building was used to park the carriage was displayed a row of rectangular wooden cards with a height of one person, and each wooden card was posted with exquisite picture scrolls, and I looked at it curiously and found that most of the paintings on the picture scroll were some blades and magic weapons, and there were relevant text annotations next to it.
The more I looked at it, the more strange I felt, and there happened to be a man next to him pointing at the scroll on the wooden card, Lu Mingfei leaned aside and asked, "This big brother, what are the things painted on this wooden card?"
The man looked at Lu Mingfei, then laughed and said, "This brother is coming to Feng'an City for the first time, this Eternal Night Tower is an auction house, and the things on the sign are the items to be auctioned tomorrow." β
"Auction house?"
Lu Mingfei looked at the other party in disbelief, and then looked at the Eternal Night Tower in front of him with a puzzled expression.
Because of Song Yiyi's relationship, Lu Mingfei still has a certain understanding of the auction house, the auction house is by no means comparable to ordinary business, and it is not something that ordinary people can open, Song Yiyi once mentioned that there is only one large-scale auction house in the entire Great Jin Dynasty, and the scale of the Eternal Night Tower in front of him looks no less than the original Fang Yuanzhai, is it that Fang Yuanzhai has changed the plaque?
