Chapter 65: The Capital

The sun is setting, and it is dusk. A group of four people walked on the mountain road, Yue'er ran in front like a little rabbit, sometimes turning around and making grimaces at the three of them, that look of tiger head and tiger brain, which really aroused the love of the three of them.

Even Shi Xian, he has a special love for Yue'er, but Yue'er dislikes him as a stone demon and doesn't let him get close to him, which also makes Shi Xian sad for a long time. Don't look at Shi Xian's tall and big-shouldered appearance, sometimes he is like a child, and he can't help but show his innocence.

Bingqing is usually not good at talking, and walks quietly in the team. However, Mo Yu always accosted her, and Bingqing, who was already a little introverted, seemed annoyed, but now he only listened to Mo Yu talking alone, and Bingqing simply treated him as air.

Even though it's evening, the weather is still very hot and muggy, and people can't get up.

"It's been surprisingly hot these days, and in previous years, even in the hot summer, there was no such hot weather, which is not a good sign. Shi Xian picked up the gourd and took a sip of water, and said to Mo Yu and Bingqing.

Bingqing's clothes were almost soaked with sweat, she was very uncomfortable now, and what she wanted to do most now was to take a cold shower. She wiped her sweat from her head, frowned and said, "My master once said that there will be visions or strange things in the world half a year before and after the arrival of the colorful aura. ”

When the four of them crossed the Wolf's Head Mountain to the foot of the mountain, the sun had completely set over the mountain. In front of her is a wide avenue, the road is lined with wild flowers and grasses, Yue'er likes these wild flowers and grasses very much, but she can't bear to pick them, her eyes have never left these flowers and plants when she walks on the road, and her little face is full of carefree smiles.

Before arriving in the capital, night had already fallen.

The four of them walked all the way, and they were also a little tired, so they stopped on the road to rest temporarily.

Yue'er looked at the starry night sky, suddenly stretched out her finger to the sky, and shouted: "Look, there is a red star next to the moon!"

All three looked up at the sky and saw a red star on one side of the moon.

Shi Xian stretched out his hand and pinched the beads hanging around his neck, and said in a deep voice: "Glowing firelight, away from chaos." This is the Luminous Ancient Star, does its appearance indicate that some calamity is coming?"

"Look, the light of the Glowing Star is getting brighter and brighter!" Bing Qing suddenly exclaimed.

Mo Yu and Shi Xian were also observing the glowing star at the moment, and found that the red light of this star was getting brighter and brighter, which was extremely strange.

At this moment, the entire glowing star turned into a fiery red, and when the four of them stared at it, it suddenly dimmed, and the star slowly disappeared in the night sky.

"Master, was that star burned by fire?" Yue'er asked innocently with a look on her little face, holding Bingqing's hand.

Before Bingqing could answer, Shi Xian preemptively said, "It's not that star that was burned by the fire, but that star that swallowed the fire." It seems that this sweltering weather will continue for a long time, and it is really torturous. ”

Yue'er looked at Shi Xian in confusion and asked, "Why did it swallow the fire?"

Mo Yu and Bingqing also looked at Shi Xian with curiosity.

Shi Xian scratched his head, glanced at Mo Yu and Bingqing, and said speechlessly: "Why are you two like children, what do you mix with me coaxing children?"

"Big Stone, I'm not a child, I'm six years old!" Yue'er was very displeased, rolled her eyes, snorted lightly, and turned her head to ignore Shi Xian.

In this way, the four of them stopped and made noise all the way, and entered the capital in the dead of night.

The Central Plains is the territory of the Zhou State, and the capital is the royal city of the Zhou State, and the royal palace is built in the city. The gates were guarded by a guard, who searched the clothes of the four men and allowed them to enter the city.

The four of them entered the capital, Mo Yu looked at the scenery in the city, the willows on both sides of the street hung down, and there was an arch bridge not far away, and there was a thin sound of flowing water under the bridge.

The four of them walked out of this street and came to the most prosperous night market in the capital.

The street is brightly lit and bustling.

Walking in the crowd, the four of them did not feel a trace of sleepiness now. Mo Yu is not sleepy, because he has slept enough during the day, and now that he has come to this lively street market, he is even less sleepy.

Yue'er saw such a lively scene in the street market, a pair of eyes were not enough, and she ran around in the crowd, extremely happy.

Even Bingqing was infected by this atmosphere, and followed Yue'er with a smile.

Looking at the two girls in front of him, one big and one small, Shi Xian, a rugged man, also showed a gentle smile, stood beside Mo Yu, and said: "Life is rare and happy, I will invite you to eat and drink tonight, we will not get drunk and return!"

"Where did you get the money, do you have the money to entertain?" Mo Yu asked curiously.

"Ahem, you don't care how I got the money, it's enough for food and wine anyway. Shi Xian was a little displeased, he hated Mo Yu's suspicious appearance now.

Mo Yu smiled and said, "Okay, someone invited a fool to refuse." Here you are familiar, you take us to the bar. ”

Hearing Mo Yu say this, Shi Xian suddenly laughed, and shouted to Bingqing who was running in front: "Little girl, take the little girl and go with me, I invite you to eat and drink!"

Shi Xian called Bingqing a little girl, and Guan Yue'er called a little girl. Bingqing heard Shi Xian's shout, so he took Yue'er back to the two.

In this way, under the leadership of Shi Xian, the four of them walked towards a restaurant called Drunken Immortal Residence.

The four of them had just entered the Drunken Immortal Residence, and Ning Caichen and the two Ning brothers happened to have just passed by in front of the restaurant. As soon as he walked through the restaurant, Ning Er stopped, looked back at the plaque on the restaurant, sniffed hard, and said intoxicatedly: "It's so strong that my saliva comes out." ”

Ning Caichen shook his head and said to his younger brother: "This kind of place is not suitable for us to come, my mother is home alone now, we have to rush back before dawn, so as not to worry about her old man." ”

"Hey, I see, I didn't say I wanted to go in. Ning Er reluctantly followed his brother out of here.

The Ning brothers ploughed the fields and herded cattle during the day, and after making dinner for the old lady in the evening, they rode directly to the capital. Now their cattle are tethered to a nearby tree, while they buy fruits, vegetables and food in the market.

Because of the hot weather and drought this year, the crops are not growing well, and I am afraid that there will be no harvest. The villagers could only use their hard-earned savings to go to the capital to buy food rations.

"If I get on the list this time and get a good ranking, then I will get a job and a half-job. When the time comes, you will bring your mother to the capital, and you won't have to suffer anymore. ”

Ning Caichen sighed lightly, although he said this, he was still a little helpless in his heart, he didn't want to enter the officialdom, but he could only do what he didn't want to do in order to live.

Ning Caichen had this filial piety, but Ning Er didn't think too much about it. Hearing his brother say this, Ning Er's heart blossomed with joy, and he thought that he would never have to live that tiring mountain village life again.

After buying food, the two brothers left the capital on cattle and returned to Linfeng Village.

The drunken fairy is in the middle, singing and dancing, and the guests are full of guests.

When Mo Yu entered here, he realized that this was not a restaurant at all, but a brothel!

When the guests and the old bustard here saw Mo Yu and Shi Xian come in with Bingqing and Yue'er, the eldest and the youngest, they all cast strange glances, and some even showed envy.

"A few guest officers, please inside. ”

Several women from the Qinglou supported Mo Yu and the four of them into a room, Shi Xian laughed all the way, and after entering the room, he took out a gold ingot from his pocket and smashed it on the table. The eyes of the women who accompanied them into the room lit up, and they immediately hugged them and stuck them in the arms of Shi Xian and Mo Yu respectively.

Bingqing and Yue'er sat opposite Mo Yu and Shi Xian, looking at the scene in front of them with puzzled expressions, they had been living in the ice field and had never seen such a scene.

Mo Yu frowned, gently pushed the two women beside him aside, and snorted coldly: "You go down and get two plates of wine and food, Young Master Ben is hungry!"

The two women laughed coquettishly, left the room very obediently, and gave Mo Yu a wink when they left.

"Old Shi, what do you mean? There is also a little girl here who has not grown up, what are you bringing us to this kind of place?" Mo Yu looked at Bingqing and Yue'er who were full of curiosity on the other side, and turned his head to ask Shi Xian with a slight anger.

Shi Xian said with a smile: "I am kind enough to bring you here to see the world, and this kind of good place should be visited often." Otherwise, it's a wasted life. ”

Mo Yu listened to Shi Xian's words, glanced back at Bingqing and Yue'er, and then glared at Shi Xian again.

Looking at Mo Yu's expression, Shi Xian immediately restrained his smile, and said secretly in Mo Yu's ear: "I'll take the little girl and the little girl away later, how about the two of us have a good time?"

Mo Yu looked at the stone immortal with a curious expression, and said, "You also like this kind of place as a stone spirit?"

Just as the two of them were whispering, the two women who were called away by Mo Yu followed a few guys with wine and food into the room. A few of the men set up the food and drinks and left the room.

Mo Yu looked at this table of good wine and food, and his saliva was about to flow out, after all, he hadn't eaten for a long time, and he didn't know why he hadn't starved to death.

So he couldn't help but take the lead in moving his chopsticks, ate a big mouthful of food, and couldn't help but praise: "I didn't expect the dishes here to be so delicious." ”

The people in this room are now watching Mo Yu eat alone, because Mo Yu's appearance of eating is too exaggerated, at first he used chopsticks, but now he simply grabbed it with his hands, and devoured a plate of dishes.

Now Mo Yu was still chewing on food in his mouth, and he was a little embarrassed when he found that the people around him were looking at him, so he said to the Qinglou women: "You all go out, today we only drink and eat, and don't talk about life." ”

Hearing Mo Yu say this, the faces of the Qinglou women immediately turned cold. Shi Xian shook his head, took out a few ingots of gold and distributed them to the women, and only after getting the gold did they leave the room satisfied.
