This year, when the osmanthus was fragrant, Kwai Ying City quietly ended the precious recuperation period that lasted for a long time.

Most of the mortals who experienced the great battle of sixty years ago are no longer in the world, and the few who are still alive have long since been sealed in their memories. After enjoying the peaceful years for too long, the ignorant Kwai Ying Castle and its inhabitants are still unable to understand the cruel world they are about to face.

Perhaps the only thing to be thankful for is that this remote corner of the city is not a place to fight, so the changes are only happening little by little.

First of all, the number of outcasts in the city has gradually increased, and all shops and granges have found it easy to recruit people from outside the city, and many people do not even want to be paid, but only ask the lord to take care of food and housing.

Before they could rejoice, prices fluctuated dramatically, and on the one hand, many rare goods that were usually difficult to obtain became ubiquitous, and on the other hand, the prices of daily necessities such as grain and cloth suddenly rose. Businesses with flexible minds and early preparation can barely cope with the past, and those who follow the rules and regulations will inevitably feel that life is a little difficult.

But this is far from the end, many powerful merchants from other places have begun to appear in this small city, whether it is a purchase or sale is a huge hand, see the old residents in the city are frightened. They arrived at about the same time as the new lord of the city, along with her staff and army. This is a great shock to Kwai Ying Castle, which has always been attached to the fairy temple and pursues the rule of inaction.

On the day the city lord entered the city, there were almost 10,000 empty alleys, and everyone went to watch with their own thoughts. When I came back, I felt a little disappointed, and they all said that they couldn't see anything special, and it was not as lively and interesting as the floats parade of the fairy market a few days ago.

However, this city lord was really resolute, and invited all the squires and wealthy merchants in the city to come over on the same day. Although it was politely said that it was a discussion, it was actually a charter that had already been decided, but it was just taken out to inform everyone.

By the next day, one law after another had been promulgated, and the most unacceptable of all the new policies was the sudden increase in taxes and forced labor.

Of course, not all people can accept this change calmly, but with the immortal masters of the Immortal Courtyard in charge, it is extremely unrealistic to rise up. Everyone had the courage to join forces and petitioned several times, and finally the most revered land master Tian Xianshi publicly expressed his posture in front of the gate of the immortal courtyard.

Since the excitement of that night, I don't know when the open space at the entrance of the fairy temple began to be called the triangular land, probably because the shape of the intersection is not very regular, a bit like a bull's head with three horns. Unconsciously, it has become an important place in the city, and it is also a place for the distribution of all kinds of news.

Gillian girl went with her father early to occupy a close position, but because it was too early, the immortals had not yet come out. Shopkeeper Jiao went to greet the shopkeepers and old customers who also arrived early. Everyone sighed in unison at the hardships of this world, and wondered what would happen later.

The absent-minded Gillian was a little dazed, and her unfocused gaze turned left and right. The weather in early autumn was already a little cold, and although the sun shone on people, it did not bring much warmth. The leaves of the trees were yellow, hanging sparsely.

On that tender night, the trees were once covered with jewels of five colors, and the beauty was like an unreal dream.

And when the wind rose, the dream woke up, and the countless leaves of the branches were blown off by the wind, fluttering and flying, and it was like her mood at this time.

Gillian couldn't help but shudder, and reached out to pull the rose purple silk cloak on her body. Touching this dress, the corners of her mouth finally couldn't help but tilt up slightly, bending into a beautiful arc. This is a new flower sample from outside recently, she stayed up for two nights, and it was easy to wear it today, but I don't know if that person will like it. Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a little melancholy, as if I was back in the evening after the rain, and there were people selling gardenias and white orchids in the alley, and all her worries at that time were just him coming, or he not coming...

Wang Dazhi slowly pushed open the gate of the fairy courtyard, and at first glance, he saw the delicate color in the autumn mood, and naturally saw the delicate girl with a trembling body under the clothes. He paused in his steps, stepped over the high threshold, turned around and opened the gate completely, and then stood aside with his eyes and nose and nose, respectfully asking the immortal master and the city lord to take the law.

Gui Yuan sat in Tianxiang Ju, and did not plan to join in the crowd crowded in the triangle. The angle of the eaves cast a shadow on her face, just hiding a pair of eyes in the darkness.

There was also a woman sitting opposite her, and after raising her eyes to look at the movement at the door of the fairy courtyard, she sighed: "There is really no one left in the fairy courtyard now, can even he be used as a countertop." ”

It turned out that most of the disciples had been emptied, and after some surprise tutoring, they were sent to various places for training, but Wang Dazhi was left in the immortal courtyard. Gui Yuan now knew that the situation was not as bad as he had predicted, and these disciples were by no means sent to death at will.

In fact, the disciples of the lower house can be roughly divided into two categories.

The first type has the largest number of people, and they are all judged to have no potential to go further, and it is in vain to continue to practice. But their strength and knowledge are far superior to those of ordinary mortals after all, and they are almost impossible to be taken away by the Heavenly Demons, which is suitable for serving as battlefield support, or helping high-ranking monks deal with those important but trivial matters. Wang Dazhi also belongs to this situation, but he just happened to be assigned to Kwai Ying City, where he was born.

The second type is naturally disciples like Guiyuan Zhang Meng who are still in the growth period, they will enter the upper courtyard to continue their studies, as for whether they can further enter the immortal sect, it depends on their future creation.

As for the demon like Osmanthus who had to start entering the world in advance because of the rapid progress, it was a completely special case, and she was the only one in the Immortal Academy for many years.

Gui Yuan poured himself a cup of tea, and quietly listened to Immortal Master Tian read those pre-prepared words, feeling that everything was like a farce, and he only felt bored when he watched it.

Although Immortal Tian's words were gentle, his attitude was very resolute, and he did not have the slightest intention of compromise.

"Of course," Gui Yuan thought unemotionally, "the cost center that has never looked at the effect has become a profit center that needs to be calculated by pounds and pounds of income overnight. No matter who sits in that position, there won't be too many options. ”
