The area of Nakashu is, as we all know, the largest piece of land in Kyushu.

There are four places such as the Eastern Regions and the West Pole, each of which has two states, and the four places have a total of eight states, while there is only one central state in Middle Earth, but it is wider than the regions of the Eastern Regions and the West Pole.

As for how big Zhongzhou is, no one knows, maybe a small number of Jiupin masters know it, but there is no prestige in the world. However, there is a lot of gossip that the land of Zhongzhou is comparable to the sum of the four places of the Eastern Regions, the West Pole, the Northern Wilderness, and the Southern Barbarians. This is really appalling, and it makes many Jianghu knights yearn for Zhongzhou.

Although the vast majority of people in the rivers and lakes in other places will not be able to go to Zhongzhou in their lifetime, the reputation of Zhongzhou, the holy land of rivers and lakes, has spread all over Kyushu, and all the people in the rivers and lakes yearn for it. Just as the scholars in Kyushu yearn for the Confucian Mansion in Zhongzhou, the Taoist priests in Kyushu yearn for the Taoist Palace in the Eastern Regions and the Buddhist people in Kyushu yearn for the Pure Land of Bliss where the Buddha once realized the Buddha and preached the Dharma in the West Pole.

The demon demon came here from the Northern Wilderness, and it has been a few years, but he has not fully adapted to the atmosphere of the rivers and lakes in Zhongzhou, a holy land of rivers and lakes.

At this time, she was in a small two-story restaurant in Kyoto, a small dynasty, pouring wine and drinking alone.

Outside the small building, it was drizzling, and it was already autumn at this time, and the autumn rain could already make people feel a little cool. She wears a blue cloth shirt and cheap cloth shoes, and drinks sake that makes people slightly drunk.

In the past few years, her realm has continued to stabilize, and she has finally become a monk with a deep foundation at the peak realm of the seventh grade.

Although her realm has improved, she has never been able to be happy. Even her mood is very depressed, because what she has seen and heard in the past few years has made her, the pride of the sky, feel a little confused about the future.

A few days ago, she saw the invisible atmosphere of the rivers and lakes in Zhongzhou again, and that atmosphere pressed her chest dullly, and sometimes she was almost out of breath.

In her consciousness, after becoming a grandmaster or a great grandmaster, it is her pursuit and her duty to steadily improve the strength of the sect, so that her Shimen Ice Divine Palace is completely superior to the Fire God Temple, and she dominates the world. But what she has seen and heard in Zhongzhou in the past few years has made her feel that a person who walks alone in the rivers and lakes can be so chic, so uninhibited, and so heroic.

She likes the atmosphere of Zhongzhou a little, but she can't let go of the elderly master in the sect, as well as the elders such as uncles and uncles who used to have great expectations for her and take care of her. This made her feel a little conflicted.

But at this time, her Dao heart is still very strong, and in the deepest part of her heart, her home is still not the seemingly chic and uninhibited "Four Seas as Home", but the Ice God Palace that is far away from thousands of mountains and rivers. Although it was cold every day, her heart was hot, much hotter than in Zhongzhou, a place full of smoke and strong smell of rivers and lakes.

At this time, several young scholars came upstairs, all holding fans in their hands, and their faces were constantly smiling, which would give people a warm feeling.

The scholar who was the leader of them saw the demon sitting alone in the corner of the second floor, noticed her somewhat distressed expression, and then his eyes lit up, cleared his throat, shook his fan in this somewhat cool season, raised his head slightly, and said loudly: "Spring flowers and autumn grass." It's just urging people to get old. Always sweep the eyebrows of a thousand mountains. Don't worry much. Persuade the king to green wine golden cup. Don't be afraid of the sound of the silk pipe. The rabbit can't fly, and there are several degrees of life in three times. ”

After saying that, the scholar quietly glanced at the demon sitting in the corner, and then his face did not change. The young scholars who followed behind him around them, after hearing this, saw the woman with a graceful figure and a beautiful face, and they all understood the mystery, and then they clapped their hands and applauded, praising continuously.

The young scholar who gave the words waved his hand disapprovingly, and then said with a bitter and free face: "The spring breeze has not yet arrived, and the autumn wind has arrived, and it is really sad for me." can only borrow wine to drown sorrow, although it is so sad and more sorrowful, but it can be greedy for a moment of dreams. I'm here for a treat today, and you won't get drunk or go home!"

"Brother Gongsun has a good temperament!"

"Brother Gongsun is so generous!"

"Brother Gongsun is really a masterpiece of my generation!"

Several young scholars laughed and clapped their hands, and then one of them chose a table adjacent to the demon and sat down, and said, "This place is close to the window, you can see the people coming and going on the street, and you can observe the different people in the world." ”

But in reality, it was getting heavier and heavier outside at this time, and there were almost no pedestrians on the streets. Occasionally, people pass by here, and they also hurry by with umbrellas, and even from the second floor, they can't even see the corners of pedestrians' clothes.

Gongsun Liang smiled at the other three companions with some gratitude, and on the wooden table at the four corners, he sat in this position facing the demon demon.

None of them are the children of the big clan, they all belong to the children of the poor family. It's just that the four of them are from the same township, and they participated in the imperial examination together this year, and all four of them were admitted to the Jinshi. So the relationship between the four of them is not bad now. In the future, officials will want to support each other, and it will be easier to mix in this Kyoto. Among the four, Gongsun Liang was the best in the exam, and he almost became a "Tanhualang". It's a pity that the difference is a penny.

Several people ordered two pots of sake, and then ordered three vegetarian dishes and one meat dish.

After ordering, the four of them began to talk and laugh, sometimes talking about poetry and songs, and sometimes talking about family and country affairs.

However, what made the demon demon refreshing was that the four of them actually talked about the affairs of Zhongzhou rivers and lakes, and they were also like a few treasures.

This made the demon demon slightly interested.

Gongsun Liang saw that the woman listened a little intently when he heard him talk about interesting things about the rivers and lakes, and he couldn't help but feel a big heart, and then started talking.

"Ladies and gentlemen, have you ever heard that the 'brute dragon' who came to our Zhongzhou like a fierce dragon crossing the river a few days ago actually had a tie with a wild cultivator in the realm of an eight-rank grandmaster, and the brute dragon threatened that within five years, he could completely defeat the long-famous grandmaster!"

"There is also the prince Yelu of the imperial family from the Western Pole, who has relied on his Buddhist method and royal dragon qi to cultivate the double method, and he has entered the eight-rank realm like a bamboo, becoming the youngest grandmaster in Yijiazi. The rest of the descendants of the super sects are now mostly cultivators of the seven-rank realm and the seven-rank peak realm. So this proud son of heaven can be said to be the first to lead the rivers and lakes of this era!"

"There is another one, it is a contemporary young palace master from the Northern Wilderness Ice Divine Palace, it is said that she is a woman, born with the beauty of the country, the country and the city, and the strength is extremely strong, and her cultivation is at the peak of today's young generation. It's only one step worse than Grandmaster Nayelu, and it's really impossible to say who will be stronger and who will be weak in the future. Because many geniuses are advancing rapidly, and at the same time, they are also preparing for thick and thin. This young palace master, I think he is that kind of genius. ”

The three of them also nodded when they heard this, and then one of them suddenly asked, "I heard that there are two super sects in the Northern Wilderness, one is the Ice God Palace, and the other is the Fire God Temple. The two super sects are incompatible, and they have been fighting for thousands of years. So now, only the young palace master of the Northern Desolate Ice Divine Palace comes, and there is no young hall master of the Fire God Temple?"

"I don't know why, but there are rumors that last year, the young hall master of the Fire God Temple came to Zhongzhou, but every time he made a move, he covered it up a little and was relatively low-key, so no one has gotten a glimpse of his true face now. ”

When Gongsun Liang said this, he said with a smile: "But this kind of character, after all, is too far away from us, it doesn't matter if you don't see it." ”

Gongsun Liang glanced at the demon demon intentionally or unintentionally, and said with a smile: "But some people, as soon as they meet, they are moved!"

When the demon demon heard him say that the young hall master of the Fire God Temple might come to Zhongzhou, he was still slightly interested, and when he heard this, he couldn't help frowning, but he didn't have any words.

Gongsun Liang saw that she was just frowning, but there was no word to refute, and he was happy in his heart. I thought she admired him a little. Because in Zhongzhou, there is a relationship between Confucianism and Confucianism, and the status of scholars is quite high. Most of the seowon had a more effective status than the local sect families.

And the highest goal of his grandson Liang's life is to be able to enter any of the thousands of academies. In that case, he became a sage of Confucianism, and although he was not a gentleman, he could walk sideways even in Kyoto of this dynasty.

Gongsun Liang "inadvertently" saw the demon demon sitting there alone drinking, so he got up with a smile, held a glass of wine in his hand, came to the demon demon, slowly sat down and said with a smile: "This girl, but what unhappy things have happened?"

"Nope. The demon shook his head.

"I don't think the girl is in a good mood, come, I'll give the girl a drink." After saying that, Gongsun Liang raised the wine glass in his hand to the demon demon, and then drank it all.

After drinking, he wiped the drops of wine from the corner of his mouth, and then said with a smile: "What is there in the world to relieve sorrow? ”

The demon demon glanced at his abnormal eyes, and felt a little disgusted in his heart.

She was about to get up and leave, but the three companions of Gongsun Liang got up one after another, stopped in front of the demon demon, and said with a smile: "Girl, it is already raining heavily outside, if the girl goes out at this time, she will inevitably get wet, and if she gets sick because of this, the gain will outweigh the loss...... It's better to drink and sing with us in this small restaurant, which is an elegant and interesting thing. ”

The demon demon said with a facial expression: "Get out." ”

As she spoke, there was a cold aura on her body that was unconsciously released, making Gongsun Liang and the others suddenly feel a chill in their hearts, and they all took a step back.

After the demon demon went downstairs, he walked on the street in a little confusion, although the rain kept falling in the sky, but not a drop could get close to her, and she was bounced away by an invisible internal force a foot away. The few people in the small restaurant who watched were terrified. Gongsun Liang is usually quite interested in the rivers and lakes, and knows that the internal force is released, and only by reaching the realm of the seventh of the three grades can it be done. This woman is so young, at least she is already in the seventh-grade realm, and the real realm is even higher. This reminded Gongsun Liang of the young palace master of the Ice God Palace. He was sweating profusely on his forehead at this time, and his face was bloodless. He felt like he had just gone around the gates of hell.

The demon demon had already left the appearance of those people behind, but in the autumn wind and autumn rain, he walked aimlessly.
