Volume 1 Xiuzhen World Chapter 23 Frightened
The smell of earth still fills the windy city after the rain, and the farmers have already left their homes to start their day's work in their fields.
"Ergou, do you say that this Song Kingdom is going to change the emperor! I heard Sandan, who just came back from there, say that the capital has already been in chaos, and I don't know if the next emperor will be good......" A dark-skinned middle-aged man sighed to the young man named Ergou who was watering on the side.
"Shh......h Brother Zhang, although our Windy City is far away from the capital and is in a border city, you still have to be careful, you don't know about Wang Wu before. The young man hurriedly covered his mouth and reminded, and then lowered his voice and said,
"But it's really about to change the sky, and some people say that they have seen immortals in the capital!"
"Haha, let's hoe our own fields!" the man named Brother Zhang was about to say something, but then the two of them looked in one direction at the same time.
"Drive!"
The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and I saw a carriage with three horses galloping towards it, and the wheels were crushed on the muddy road and splashed with mud. A man dressed in white was sitting in front of the carriage with his eyes closed. In a few moments they passed in front of the two peasants.
"Hey, no, the man was driving with his eyes closed. The young man named Ergou said with some surprise after the carriage left.
"Maybe it's too tired, now many rich people are like that, using their lives to make money, usually tired like my family's prosperity, and only busy and resting. It's better for us, although we don't have so much property, and maybe we can't afford to buy a carriage for the rest of our lives, but at least we have a good time. The man surnamed Zhang looked into the distance, shook his head a little melancholy after speaking, and continued the farm work in his hands.
Obviously, the farmer misunderstood the young man in white, and the young man in white was Li Yiran, who came all the way, and it was naturally Lin Yueyuan who was sitting in the back of the car. This was the seventh day they had left the Imperial City, and Li resolutely bought a carriage to speed up their journey, and on this day they finally arrived at the border of the Song Kingdom, Windy City.
Windy City is a mysterious city, she is at the junction of the Song Kingdom and the Liao Kingdom, Li Yiran learned through the map that after the Liao Kingdom, you can reach the Yufeng Sect through special channels. The people of the Liao State were all brave and good at fighting, but for some reason they did not invade the Windy City, and the Windy City did not seem to be taken much seriously by the Song State, and only two or three officials were sent to manage it. Therefore, the Windy City has become a habitat for many outlaws, according to their words, "The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, who cares about you!"
I heard Daddy say that it is a gathering place for a group of unruly people, you have to be careful!" A woman's lazy voice came from behind the carriage, and when she heard it, she knew that she had just woken up, and she didn't know how she fell asleep on such a bumpy road.
"Miss Lin, why don't you listen to your tone like you're worried about me, but more like you want to watch a show?" Li resolutely looked at the approaching gate in front of him, and asked Lin Yueyuan with interest.
"Those robbers a few days ago are not enough to watch, they are too weak, I want to watch a big show!" Lin Yueyuan suddenly stretched out her head, made a grimace at Li Yiran and retracted it.
Li Yiran was a little speechless, didn't pay attention to Lin Yueyuan, continued to drive the carriage, and approached the gate of Windy City after a while.
"The eldest lady is coming, let's have a good meal!" Li said resolutely and quippedly. In fact, in the seven days after leaving the imperial city, Li Yiran talked to Lin Yueyuan about a lot of ancient anecdotes in the "Ancient Chronicles" left by his grandfather, and Lin Yueyuan also listened to it with taste, so the relationship between the two became better and better. It is not so much that Li Yiran escorted Lin Yueyuan to the Jade Peak Sect, it is better to say that the two of them are traveling and telling stories along the way, but this is also the fate of the two, and this fate has also made them have deeper memories since entering this Windy City.
"Stop! Get out of the car and check!" I saw a big guard stop Li Yiran's car, and shouted fiercely, the expression was like Li Yiran owed him money, which made Li Yiran unhappy for a while, but in order to avoid trouble, Li Yiran still cooperated with the inspection.
After a period of neighing, Li Yiran and Lin Yueyuan got out of the car, silently watching the guard enter the carriage, Li Yiran's expression was indifferent, and Lin Yueyuan was a little excited, and her eyes flashed from time to time.
"Hee-hee, he actually went to the carriage, and it looks like he's going to be scared for a few days. Lin Yueyuan muttered quietly, but there was a look of schadenfreude on her face.
"Tell you to be on your toes. Li Yiran felt a little comfortable in his heart, but he didn't do anything.
"Come and help...... Help me ......" In less than a moment, there was a weak voice from the guard who had just entered the carriage, Li Yiran slowly entered the carriage after hearing it, and the other guard did not move after seeing Li Yiran enter, looking at Lin Yueyuan, his face was full of vigilance. However, Lin Yueyuan seemed to turn a blind eye, staring at the sky and humming a small tune.
"Brother Guard, you have to be careful next time, our carriage is a little short, don't hit it!" Li resolutely said loudly.
"Okay, I'll be careful next time. You can go in. After being helped out by Li Yiran, the guard suddenly seemed to be a different person, very polite.
"Let's go!" Lin Yueyuan grinned and got into the carriage, and Li resolutely also pulled the carriage and slowly entered the Windy City. However, the moment he entered the Windy City, his mind suddenly felt an inexplicable dizziness, and then his heart was enveloped by a kind of uneasiness, and his eyelids jumped!
Li resolutely frowned, this was the first time he had this feeling, and he didn't know what it portended, if he knew what was going to happen in the future, whether he would enter Windy City or not was a matter of two words. He wondered what was so alarming him, so he led the carriage into the Windy City.
......
At the same time, on top of a castle tower on a continent, a sloppy old man looked away from the ankle of the woman who had just walked by him, and after biting off a piece of chicken leg in his mouth, he muttered:
"That kid is really not reassuring, and the warning left for him triggered him to ignore it......! It's okay to let him get a little injured, and he won't die. Where am I going next?I heard that little Nizi has found a girl who can use 'feathers', so let's go and see it, by the way...... Hey, hey!" the sloppy old man casually shot out a golden light and disappeared without a trace.
......
It was another silent night, and at this time, Li resolutely sat cross-legged on the roof of an inn, and Lin Yueyuan had already entered a sweet dreamland. Because Li Yiran was always a little uneasy, he had to leave alone after setting up a simple protective method in Lin Yueyuan's room to see what made him so restless!
"My cultivation has already broken through to the ninth layer of Qi cultivation at that time, let's go and see what it is!" Feeling a hint of inexplicable summons, Li resolutely muttered and walked in the direction that made him uneasy.
After walking through a small street and a deep alley, Li resolutely saw a manor in front of him, and at this time he had held Shihan in his hand for some time, braving a faint cold air, which looked even more strange against the background of the moonlight.
The indescribable silence all around, accompanied by the sound of insects, coupled with the somewhat bleak moonlight, can't help but make people's hearts chill.
"It feels the strongest here. But the next moment, Li Yiran's face suddenly changed,
"Get out!" With a wave of Shihan in his hand, a sword qi slashed straight towards a place.
"Meow!" A cat meow sounded, and I saw a black cat being cut in two in an instant, and blood was splashed everywhere!
"Got a lot of heart?" Li resolutely frowned, and then slowly walked into the gate of the manor......
What Li Yiran didn't know was that everything he experienced in it next would never be forgotten in his life, even if he reached that realm......
