The border city guard barracks mutinied**, and the next day it spread in the city. This small border city fell into a brief panic for a while, but fortunately, the barracks general He Nian personally led the troops to march on the streets, which reassured the people in the city. During the few years that He came to the border city, the people here not only lived and worked in peace and contentment, but also improved their living standards a lot. In the hearts of the people in the border cities, He Sannian is a clean official, a good official who is sympathetic to the people.

At night, it is the moment when the border city can best show his charm, and the people talk together under the lights of thousands of homes, and the scenes of laughter and laughter can be seen everywhere. In the heart of this small town, a snake-like street weaves through it, dividing the border town in half, but making it even more charming.

At night, Niluo Street was full of people, and strangers passed by, but they always wore a faint smile. The ancient buildings on both sides stretch along the gentle streets, and the colorful lights are dotted with them, unsparing their charm.

The taverns with the smell of alcohol, the picturesque green buildings with heavy makeup, and the street stalls are neatly arranged. The smell of perfume mixed with alcohol can't help but make people intoxicated, the screams caused by street juggling, the self-indulgence of the storyteller, and the occasional applause from the listener, all of which are the most beautiful scenery on Niluo Street. People seem to have forgotten the mutiny that took place a few days ago**.

Yang Dajin, Lin Hai and the others had already entered the Qinglou at ten o'clock in the evening, but Mu Xiao and Heilong expressed no interest, which made Han Yu a little surprised.

"Mu Gongzi, don't you really go to Qinglou to listen to a song? The girl there is a first-class and first-class girl, not only has a good voice, but I heard that there are a lot of unique skills. ”

Han Yu's eyes lit up when he spoke, he had been in the border city for so many years, although he wanted to go to the Qinglou to sit, but he had always been passing by and could not enter, and the two sons in front of him were good, and they were not interested at all.

Mu Xiao grinned: "Guard Han is very familiar with the Qinglou, or are you a frequent visitor to the Qinglou?"

Karma!

Han Yu said with an embarrassed face when he heard this: "I'm not afraid of the two jokes, we are soldiers, but we haven't been to the Qinglou, and the people who have been there before have already ......."

Han Yu made a neck wiping gesture, his eyes full of horror. Although this mud snail street is bustling and charming, it is a forbidden place for soldiers and generals.

"Why is that?"

This made Mu Xiao strange, he had to take his life to go to a green building, but this rule made people listen to it.

"The border city is the border city of the country, and the soldiers stationed here must always be ready, General He said that extravagant life will make the soldiers lose their fighting spirit, so ......"

"So he forbade the soldiers to visit the Qinglou!" the black dragon interrupted Han Yu's words, thinking in his heart, this three years is really ruthless, and he will have to cut off his head when he visits the Qinglou.

Mu Xiao sighed in his ears when he heard it, and now in this Qingyang world, there may not be many powerful ministers who are dedicated to the country. Many of them did whatever it took to get promoted and make a fortune, corrupting the granaries of the imperial treasury. Although this kind of strict management of the army and ensuring the combat effectiveness of the soldiers protecting the territory of the empire is a bit too strict, it is the most effective method.

"Guard Han, why are you here to be a soldier?"

"This ......!" Han Yu didn't expect Mu Xiao to suddenly ask like this, to be honest, he really didn't think about it seriously, but he came here to eat, which may be the original intention of most soldiers.

Han Yu was a little embarrassed and stunned in place, Mu Xiao looked at the ground and looked up at the front and sighed, "It's okay, maybe everything you do is to live." ”

"Alive, sort of! Most of our border city barracks are from the sand and smoke area of Liaocheng, maybe everyone came to the barracks to live at first," Han Yu fell into a memory.

"Sand and smoke zone?" Mu Xiao was a little strange, isn't Liaocheng Liaocheng? Why are there any sand and smoke zones? I have never heard of Hei Long.

Da!

Without waiting for the two of them to solve Mu Xiao's doubts, his ribs were flicked by a hard object, and his eyes looked at the side of the alley, and a red skirt flashed at the entrance of the alley.

Touching the sore ribs, Mu Xiao said to Hei Long and Han Yu: "You guys go shopping by yourself, I have something to do!"

"Hey, what's the matter?" Before the black dragon could finish speaking, Mu Xiao had already rushed into the alley and disappeared.

"Let's go, keep up" Han Yu's face was solemn, why did Mu Xiao run into that alley?

The two entered the alley together, except for a few stalls and scattered pedestrians, everything around them was the same, but Mu Xiao didn't know where to go.

"He still has injuries on his body! How can you say that he can run?" Han Yu's face was full of worry, mostly afraid of Lord Taidong's words: If you make any mistakes, use your head as a urinal!

Taidong, this guy, used He Sannian's words to scare him to scare his subordinates, which is really a bit excessive. Han Yu had no master of the six gods at this time, so it seemed that he could only go back to report first, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

......

An inn in the border city, the lights are a little dim, the surrounding streets and alleys are empty, and an old courtyard door is open.

swish

Mu Xiao's footsteps stopped in front of the door, and the cat's steps approached the courtyard gate and stretched out his head to poke in.

"Do you want to stay in the hotel?" an old man with messy hair appeared behind him at some point, his crooked body as thin as wood. The cloudy eyes under the messy hair were squinting a faint smile at Mu Xiao.

Mu Xiao subconsciously stepped back and distanced himself from him, stretched out his hands forward and arched: "Old man, if I don't live in the store, I'm just running away." ”

"It's good to be lost, since you're lost, don't go back, stay for one night first, and you'll naturally find your way when the sun rises tomorrow." The old man walked to the courtyard door, and his thin hand gently pushed open the wooden door.

Squeak

"Come in, the inn has been abandoned for many years, and the old man is also panicked, since he is here, he will talk to the old man first. At this time, the old man turned his bow-like body to look at Mu Xiao and said.

Mu Xiao followed behind the old man with curiosity, even though the old man in front of him seemed to be no different from ordinary people, he always vaguely felt that there was always a powerful and familiar force in this inn.

The inn is a quadrangle, except for a corridor that winds around it, and the courtyard is only three or four zhang in size. Although old, it was cleaned, and the lanterns on the walls were crumbling in the evening breeze.

"Old man, you have some thoughts in this inn!" Mu Xiao said, scanning the surroundings behind the old man.

The old man carried his hands on his back and led Mu Xiao to the side of the room, where there were some potted plants and stools on the side of the porch.

The old man walked along the porch and said: "The flow of people here is not as good as Niluo Street, the owner of this shop has moved to Niluo Street for many years, and this place is abandoned and useless, so he gave it to the old man to take care of it." ”

Mu Xiao thought, not only is there a small flow of people, it is simply an unmanned street.

"I see!"

Mu Xiao swept over the other side of the inn, and a red cloth horn floated out from behind the thick pillar, grinning. The old man didn't seem to care about what Mu Xiao said, stopped in front of a door, took out the key and tinkered with the door for a while and gently pushed it open.

The room is simply furnished, with only a table and two chairs, and the occasional hot steam from the teapot on the table. Mu Xiao pulled out a chair and asked, "Old man, although you have few guests, you are still quiet and peaceful. It's just that the younger generations already have a station, otherwise this place would be a good place to rest. ”

"That's it......" the old man said lightly as he lifted the cup buckled on the coffee table, piping hot

Hot water poured down the teacup, and it was hard to grasp the teapot with a thin hand.

When the faint fragrance of tea came to his nose, Mu Xiao's heart calmed down, and he vaguely felt that behind the pillar outside, there was a special breath, which was pure and powerful.

Mu Xiao secretly an invisible force slowly output from his palm, and the old man's face moved slightly, looking out with a kind smile: "Zi Yuan, don't mess around"

"Grandpa, it's not fun at all!" A whining voice came from outside, like a silver bell, which made people's ears tingle.

Mu Xiao withdrew his palm and put it on his thigh to wipe the sweat in his palm. Looking sideways, a red dress was elegantly approaching the room, and the girl's delicate face flashed shallow and savage traces, but it revealed the temperament of everyone's daughter.

The face of the girl in front of her was as clean as the moon, and her smile was as bright as a flower. The moment he walked into the door, Mu Xiao was a little distracted.

"Mo Ziwei has seen Brother Mu," the girl said, slightly shy.

"Well, I've seen Sister Zi Yuan. ”

Just now, he obviously wanted to sneak attack himself, but at this moment, he suddenly came to a greeting gift, and Mu Xiao got up in a daze and returned the salute. It's okay for people to call me my brother, but it's okay to call my sister, right? It's just that I always feel a little weird after saying it.

No, how did she know her name? Mu Xiao looked depressed, it seemed that the inn here was not like a desert, but more like it was cleared for her arrival.

"The old man's inn is probably prepared for you, right? Since the junior has arrived here, please tell me why all this is?"

Mu Xiao felt inexplicable, he went shopping by himself, but he was attracted to such a place. What the hell is this for, saying that they are trying to disadvantage themselves without feeling hostile.

The old man's eyes stared, and his thin cheeks moved slightly: "In the battle of the Frontier Barracks, Xiaoyou's superb swordsmanship has opened the eyes of the old man, but I'm afraid that there will be trouble in the future, I hope Xiaoyou can go to DìDū with the old man." ”

"DìDū has always been a place that younger generations yearn for, and one day I will definitely go to see Dì Dū's style!" Mu Xiao said with a smile.

Mo Ziwei, who was standing on the side, wafted a burst of fragrance from time to time, and her breath made Mu Xiao's blood boil. The Taicang Sutra runs secretly in the body, and the heartbeat slowly calms down.

"Yes! It is said that self-cultivation begins with cultivating the mind, it seems that although Xiaoyou's heart has not entered the Tao, it is also stable beyond ordinary people, you should have a better path, DìDū is your best choice!" The old man's eyes became a little hot, and when his hand was raised, the strange fragrance on Mo Ziyu's body dissipated invisibly.

"This is?" Mu Xiao's face was full of astonishment, it turned out that the aroma of Fang Cai was made by the old man, could it be a temptation?

"Brother Mu, you can go to DìDū with us, there are not many people in this empire who can be invited by Grandpa, you don't know what to do. Mo Ziyu swept away her shyness and became arrogant.

The old man's eyes squinted: "Zi Yuan, Brother Mu has his own measure, go and see fate or not!"

The old man said that a black token was placed on the table, got up and walked out of the door, and said, "Take the token, and you can find the old man when you go to Dì Dū." ”

A cool breeze suddenly blew in the room, and the old man who was originally standing at the door and talking disappeared in front of Mu Xiao as if he had never appeared, not knowing where he was going.

Mo Zimei, who was still in the room, looked at Mu Xiao like a turtle and said, "Strength is always the best guarantee for survival, Brother Mu welcomes you to DìDū." ”

swish

The red shadow flickered, and Mu Xiao was the only one left in the room, who gently picked up the token on the table like a small sword, and stepped out of the room weakly. It's as if it's so strange to the world, and it's so insignificant.
