There is an oasis in the desert, which the locals call a fairyland where the sun and the moon shine together.

The east and west sides of the oasis have a lake, the one on the east side of the oasis that is larger and more round, called the Sun Pool, and the one that looks like a crescent moon on the west side is called the Moon Spring.

The name of the sun and the moon is derived from this.

In addition to these two lakes, on this oasis, which is said to be the largest oasis in the desert, there is also one of the most prosperous cities in the desert, the Lonely Night City. Before Lonely Night City, the village here had another fixed name, the Pearl of the Night.

This oasis has long been a battleground for the major forces in the desert, and was almost destroyed by the continuous wars.

The name of the Pearl of the Night is because of the never-ending fighting and the bones everywhere.

Until the Taizong period of the previous dynasty, it was also the beginning of the heyday of the previous dynasty, and Emperor Taizong sent his playmate Ji Yun, who had played since childhood, to lead tens of thousands of elite soldiers and hundreds of masters to the battle.

It took less than two months to occupy the oasis.

In addition to occupying the oasis, Ji Yun did not wipe out the three tribes that lived in the oasis before, but left them behind and planned to build a city on the oasis together.

A year later, a lonely night city surrounded by high walls rose from the ground. Since then, the owner of the city has only one surname - Ji.

Later, relying on its transit for trade between Persia and the Central Plains, the city of Lonely Night slowly changed from a small city with only a few thousand people to a large city with 10,000 households today.

Later, during the period when the last emperor of the previous dynasty was destroyed, the forces of the Fenghuo Sect sprung up in the desert, and the former dynasty was already too busy to take care of itself, worried that the Lonely Night City would be attacked by the Fire Sect in the future, and at that time, the city lord of the Lonely Night City, that is, Ji Xiaoyao's grandfather, Ji Xingyuan, took refuge in Tianxuandong, the largest force in the desert.

After receiving the protection of Tianxuan Cave, the Ji family's dominance in Xiaoyao City was consolidated, but for this reason, they had to hand over gold and silver, horses, fat cattle and sheep, high-quality tea and grain to Tianxuan Cave every year, which was almost equivalent to half of the Ji family's annual income.

So later, after the previous dynasty was destroyed, with the remnants of the forces that fled to Xiaoyao City, Ji Xiaoyao, the lord of Xiaoyao City, ambushed and killed Gu Lianshuang's father Gu Wuyan, and replaced Tianxuandong to become the overlord of the desert rivers and lakes.

However, a few years after killing Gu Wuyan, Ji Xiaoyao suddenly passed the position of city lord to his son, and he has not been heard from since.

A few years ago, Gu Lianshuang, who had disappeared for more than ten years, led his father's former subordinates to sneak into Lonely Night City overnight, killed Ji Xiaoyao's son Ji Bai, and occupied Lonely Night City;

About two years ago, Ji Xiaoyao, who was locked up at the bottom of the Monk's Courtyard Inquiry Tower, successfully escaped, returned to the desert, and with the help of Yintian, drove away the Tianxuan Cave and regained the position of the city lord of Lonely Night City.

In the end, more than three months ago, Gu Lianshuang, the head of Tianxuan Cave, took advantage of Ji Xiaoyao to go out of the city, and killed Ji Xiaoyao after several assassination ambushes, and the final ownership of Lonely Night City also came to an end with the understanding of the grievances between the Gu family and the Ji family.

A sunny day.

The city of Lonely Night is as bustling as ever.

There is a house in the south of the city, which is said to have been lived in by Ji Xiaoyao's outer room, and since the news of Ji Xiaoyao's murder came out, this house has changed owners.

The hosts are a young couple who rarely go out, and every once in a while someone brings them something they need to eat and stay.

In the courtyard, the young couple was eating.

"Sister Yulin, is it delicious?" Meng Jiu looked at Nangong Yulin expectantly.

After eating two bites of mutton that Meng Jiu made for himself, Nangong Yulin smiled awkwardly and politely, noncommittal.

Since coming to Lonely Night City, the two have become a married couple under the witness of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, and then they have lived together justifiably.

Although the two of them have been worried about the situation in Xishu and worried about the safety of their master Zhao Youchuan and the brothers of the Yin-Yang Sect, all they can do is wait.

"Ahem!"

"Ahem!"

Just then, there was a coughing sound from the yard next door.

After frowning for a moment, Nangong Yulin said to Meng Jiu, "Brother, go and take a look." ”

Meng Jiu nodded, and then went out and knocked on the door of the house next door.

In the past few months since they came to Lonely Night City, the two of them have barely left the house and have no contact with anyone, except for the neighbor next door.

The neighbors are a hard-working mother and daughter, the woman is in her early twenties, and the child has just turned four.

It was because he heard his daughter's incessant coughing and the little girl's crying that Nangong Yulin asked Meng Jiu to take a look next door.

After Meng Jiu went, he learned that the woman was seriously ill and could no longer work, and her husband died two years ago in the siege of Ji Xiaoyao to recapture Lonely Night City.

Ji Xiaoyao once promised to make their mother and daughter worry about food and clothing for the rest of their lives as compensation, however, after only giving twenty taels of silver, there was no follow-up.

A year ago, the woman was sick, and she almost spent all her money for medical treatment, so she went to Ji Xiaoyao for help.

However, a person from a lowly background like her was not qualified to see the city lord Ji Xiaoyao at all, and she was also told that the twenty taels of silver at the beginning were for their mother and daughter to spend a lifetime.

With nothing to do, the woman had no choice but to kneel and cry in front of the city lord's mansion, but in the end, instead of getting what she wanted, she was beaten.

From that day on, the woman was afraid to go to the doctor, wanting to save what little money she had left, and at the same time, she asked around to help the girl find an adoptive father and adoptive mother.

In the end, she found that she could only send her children to the big family's house to be a maid, and she didn't want her child to suffer this, so she could only buy some cheap medicine to cook and drink, and at the same time go to the big family's house to do laundry to earn money.

Originally, she was hoping that her body would be able to last until the child was eleven or twelve years old, but within half a year, her body deteriorated and she coughed all day long.

Worried that she would have some diseases that would be passed on to others, and the big families didn't want her to do things, so she could only lie on the couch every day, looking at her thin and innocent child in despair.

After pushing open the door next door, Meng Jiu walked in.

"Brother!" the little girl strode up to him, threw herself into his arms, and wept bitterly.

"Mother, mother, she vomited a lot of blood again!"

Hearing this, Meng Jiu's expression became solemn. He once asked several Lang Zhong to treat women, and Lang Zhong said that the woman's illness had been delayed for too long, and the opportunity had been delayed and could not be treated.

"I cooked mutton, you should find your sister to eat it together. Meng Jiu whispered to the little girl.

The little girl nodded with tears and left.

After taking a deep breath, Meng Jiu walked into the room.

(Everyone is happy on May Day, but I'm not happy at all, because I have to work overtime until more than ten o'clock every day, so I don't have time to code words at all.) Of course, working people are the most glorious!
