Patrolling the streets of Chang'an, seeing carriages coming from the Sifang City Gate, watching the people go out and be busy with various livelihoods, Ye Qingfeng and the others were finally relieved.

No matter how big the disaster or how dangerous the environment, survival is the instinct of human beings. These people have maintained such a rhythm of life for many years, not because their psychological quality is too high, but because there is really no way.

People have to eat, children have to feed, and this is the law of life.

"Let's go, go back to Tiance Mansion to rest, it's completely dawning, hand over this place to Chang'an Mansion." ”

Ye Qingfeng stretched his waist and called on the disciples of Tiance Mansion to return to the sect, in the past few days, they have been patrolling day and night to eliminate demons, and they are all tired.

Zi Yanran and Ling Shuangyue were also in low spirits, and the two of them together had treated hundreds of people who had been attacked by Yin Qi, and this kind of consumption was really not easy to bear.

Of course, everyone didn't have any objections, but Zi Yanran mentioned tomorrow's water and land festival when she was leaving, and everyone hurriedly agreed to reassure her.

Back in Tiance Mansion, everyone didn't talk too much nonsense, just hugged their fists and returned to their rooms, meditating and exercising, healing and recovering at the same time.

After three or four hours of cultivation, Ye Qingfeng finally recovered, his spirits were greatly lifted, and when he went out, the sun was shining, and it was just past noon.

The sky and the earth are hot, the sun is piercing, the sky is clear, and the noise of the street can be faintly heard.

That's the peddlers hawking, that's the pedestrians laughing.

Ye Qingfeng couldn't help laughing, on the one hand, he had recovered his state and his spirit had improved, and he even felt that his mana had improved a lot, and on the other hand, the demonic energy rolling in the sky had finally dispersed, and the sun had come out.

"Senior Brother Ye..."

There was a soft shout from the side, and Ling Shuangyue opened her hands to the sun, squinting and smiling: "The air is so fresh." ”

Ye Qingfeng was slightly stunned, and then said: "Yes, everything will get better and better, and they are about to come out, right?" We continue to go to the Drunken Immortal Building to eat, and there is always a little uneasy staying in the mansion. ”

Ling Shuangyue stroked her hair, moved a few times, and said, "That's right, the Drunken Immortal Tower overlooks Chang'an, and we can know that there are changes in any place, it is indeed a good place." It's just that the food and drinks there seem to be very expensive... Last ......"

Ye Qingfeng waved his hand and said: "There is Mu Shi, what are you afraid of, he is not short of money." ”

It also seemed that she remembered what Mu Zibai had said before, Ling Shuangyue snorted and laughed, and for a while, it was really beautiful.

The ideal is plump, and the reality is skinny.

Everyone was rumbling with hunger, and before they could go out, General Cheng finally returned.

Dusty and tired, he drank a few bowls of water as soon as he sat on a chair.

Ye Qingfeng was stunned and said, "Master, you are ......"

"Good job, boy!"

General Cheng slapped Ye Qingfeng on the shoulder and said loudly: "Chang'an handled it beautifully last night, with the demeanor of my Tiance disciples, as well as a few of you, all of them are very good. ”

Ye Qingfeng was almost knocked to the ground by this slap, and said with a wry smile: "Master, why have you stayed in the palace for so long, and Zen Master Dahui, is there something wrong in the palace?"

"Who said we were in the palace?"

General Cheng glared: "You kid usually looks smart, why are you so stupid at a critical time, what do you think is the most important thing at this time?"

"Huh?" Ye Qingfeng was stunned.

General Cheng said: "The country is governed by culture, the country is peaceful by force, and when there is chaos, the army is the most important." After Zen Master Dahui and I entered the palace to face the saint, we cooperated with Master Zhong Kui to eliminate the demons and ghosts in the forbidden army such as the left guard, the left and right Weiwei, and the left and right Jinwuwei, including all the troops of Gongwei Datang Chang'an, all of them were investigated one by one, and they could respond to contingencies at any time. ”

"How wise the Holy One is, he can see the crux of the problem at a glance, and only then did we have a series of actions, and now a large number of troops have entered the city and are ready to be called at any time. ”

Speaking of this, General Cheng laughed again: "But you juniors did a very beautiful job last night, which was indeed beyond our expectations, the new person replaces the old person, and there are some things, it should be time for you to bear it." ”

Everyone looked at each other, and then the doubts in their hearts were dispelled. It is also true that the army is crucial at this time, and the Holy One is indeed more thoughtful.

Ye Qingfeng said: "By the way, Master, what about Senior Sister Chu? I haven't seen her last night. ”

"Don't worry. ”

General Cheng said: "When I entered the palace yesterday, I met her on the street, and I asked her to take more than ten disciples to Qinghe Town. Chang'an needs help, why doesn't Qinghe Town need it? It's just that the surrounding monsters have been almost killed by you before, and they haven't been ravaged by the disease, and no one has died, so there are not many ghosts, and there are naturally fewer people sent to it. ”

"However, I believe that with Biqiu's ability, she can handle the problems of Qinghe Town. ”

Ye Qingfeng also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Thank you, Master." ”

"Thank you, I'm for the people of Qinghe Town, this is the duty of Tiance Mansion, not because it's your hometown. ”

General Cheng stood up: "I still need to enter the palace and explain the situation to the saint, and you younger generations will do your own thing." I think the heads of other sects will also pass on the news to you, and when the time comes, you can just do what you are told. ”

"Gone. ”

He waved his hand and headed towards the palace again.

"Congratulations, Master. ”

Ye Qingfeng hurriedly hugged his fists.

Bai Wuwu grinned and said: "Look, look, the big guys are different from what we think, the Li Son of Heaven directly thought of the army, and we were busy for a long time but didn't notice this aspect." ”

Mu Zibai also said appropriately: "What we should pay attention to is not the army, let's go, eat." ”

Xue Qianxun chuckled: "Big stupid bear is embarrassed, it's hard to interject and be so stupid, we are guarding the people and not the Li family, why should we care about the army? You are not a disciple of Tiance Mansion." ”

Bai Wuwu said loudly: "The army and the people are closely related to each other, where can they be separated? Are you going to eat spicy crab today?"

Xue Qianxun's face turned red, and she immediately gritted her teeth: "Big stupid bear, if you want to rob me today, I will dare to fight with you." ”

"Alright, alright. ”

Ling Shuangyue couldn't help laughing: "Are you really not tired of being so noisy? Let's eat first." ”

Everyone walked out of Tiance Mansion and reached Long Street, and sure enough, they saw a large group of soldiers galloping in the city. This is completely different from yesterday's soldiers, yesterday's people wore uniforms, and today these people wear battle armor. Holding a long knife and halberd in his hand, wearing a helmet, his eyes are solemn, the coldness is endless, and his temperament is completely different.

The streets and alleys are full of soldiers, and if there is the slightest movement anywhere, these fighters will probably rush up and swallow up all the crises.

However, such strong regulation is bound to be counterproductive.

Although the magic bead is gone, the disease will not be cured automatically, there are still a large number of people crowded the medical hall, and they were directly dismantled by the soldiers and made a fuss. People are panicking on the streets, and people crying and shouting abound.

A lot of things are one-size-fits-all, so it is natural to create resentment, and if the way it is dealt with is so rigid, the situation will continue to worsen.

Bai Wuwu and the others were not sensitive to these, but Ye Qingfeng, Ling Shuangyue and Mu Zibai frowned again and again.

"Today, the son of the Li family is diligent in government and loves the people, and he can be regarded as a benevolent monarch through the ages, but this time it ...... dealt with like this."

When Mu Zibai said this, he suddenly paused, and he shouldn't go on.

Ling Shuangyue said: "I hope nothing happens, Chang'an can't stand such a fuss." ”

Ye Qingfeng sighed and looked at the palace in the distance, faintly seeing the mighty aura of the Son of Heaven, exuding awe-inspiring heavenly might.

"From now on, all commercial establishments will be suspended, and restaurants, tea shops, restaurants, and brothels will all be closed. ”

"All the people went back to their homes, the streets were emptied, the population of each district was checked one by one, and the wounded and sick were all reported. ”

The notice was posted, and more troops poured into Chang'an and began to clear the pedestrians, driving them home like ducks.

A scream came out, and the disobedient people were either arrested or beaten, and the whole Chang'an was in chaos in an instant.

For a while, there was endless crying and shouting, and there were shouts everywhere, Ye Qingfeng and the others were also collided, and they were squeezed by the crowd and retreated.

"Not true. ”

Mu Zibai said in a deep voice: "It's not night, why do you want to restrict activities? The curfew is not a daily curfew, so there will be problems with the functional operation of the entire city." ”

Everyone now attaches great importance to Mu Zibai's words, mainly because he doesn't talk much, and he usually speaks very necessary words.

"Is it for security reasons?"

Ye Qingfeng actually had some doubts in his heart.

Mu Zibai's eyes were cold and he shook his head.

"The state of emergency combat readiness will be strictly controlled, but there has never been such an exaggerated situation, and it is not the soldiers coming to the city, it is monsters and ghosts that are raging, so it makes little sense to do this. ”

"Moreover, the raging disease in Chang'an has not completely ended, and a large number of patients need to seek medical treatment, which is undoubtedly to force these people to death. ”

He seems to like to like to analyze these things, and when it comes to them, he talks like water.

Ling Shuangyue looked puzzled: "I have the honor to meet the Li Son of Heaven a few times, he is extremely intelligent, introverted, broad-minded, extremely inclusive, inclusive of all nationalities and subject countries, why did the style of the decree suddenly change so much this time?"

Ye Qingfeng smiled reluctantly: "Maybe it's the monsters and ghosts that are intimidating, after all, for ordinary people, this kind of thing is almost a change of color, and it is inevitable that we will consider it from our point of view." ”

Ling Shuangyue said: "There is also this possibility. ”

Mu Zibai was silent for a long time, then looked around again and smiled coldly.

"Let's go back to Tiance Mansion, and see what kind of feedback General Cheng will get when he enters the palace. However, Chang'an City can't continue like this, the ban will not be eliminated, the people's grievances will be difficult to get rid of, and the next step after accumulation is the people's change. ”

Hearing this, Ye Qingfeng's face changed: "Mu Shishi shut up, this kind of thing shouldn't be said, we just do our part." ”

Ling Shuangyue also knew the seriousness of the matter, and said: "Yes, Senior Brother Mu, don't be anxious, let's wait and see, this time the decree is indeed a bit strange, but we may not understand everything, maybe there are some aspects that we haven't noticed." ”

"Don't talk about it. ”

Bai Wuwu said loudly: "I just want to eat, I have food to eat when I go back to Tiance Mansion, go back quickly!"

Xue Qianxun said: "Big Stupid Bear is right this time. ”

Mu Zibai and Ye Qingfeng glanced at each other, their eyes met, and they nodded at the same time.
