After Shuzhou, it is out of the border.

Further north, there are the three states of the northern land ruled by the Dugu clan of Beiliangcheng for thousands of years.

Shuzhou, under the jurisdiction of three counties and two counties, the state capital is located in Jincheng, one of the three county towns, is much more prosperous than Fancheng.

Along the way, I saw different scenery and met different people, with wind, rain and sunshine.

"I have to hurry up, otherwise, I'm afraid I really won't be able to catch up with the decisive battle of Uncle Dugu's black-bellied master..."

The young man dismounted, looked at the quaint word Jinzhou, and muttered to himself.

Growing up in a heavily garrisoned military town like Suzaku City, I have only experienced the prosperity of Fancheng.

But entering the city, Jiang Xiaoman couldn't help but sigh secretly, although this is the same border city, the hustle and bustle is far from being comparable to other places.

The endless cries of selling, the frolicking of children, and the bargaining of passing merchants.

All of them show that this Jinzhou City is the epitome of the thousand-year-old prosperity of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The aroma of wine, rouge, almost pervasively penetrated into the teenager's nose.

All kinds of aromas, smelling for a long time, but also a little choking.

In the border area, there is an old saying that is good, and it is not unreasonable to enter Shu.

In this comfortable atmosphere, it is indeed possible to make young people whose minds are not yet complete indulge in it and forget to struggle.

It's still early, so finding a place to stay is the right thing to do.

Jiang Xiaoman led the horse, and from time to time there would be the wanton laughter of the children of the anointed rice galloping past him.

The boy couldn't help frowning slightly, inevitably a little disgusted by what these peers were doing.

After all, it is not a sparsely populated suburb, the city is already crowded, and there is no fear of hurting innocent passers-by on the street if you gallop freely.

I really wanted to come to something, but before I could come back to my senses, I heard a child crying and a woman screaming in fear from not far away.

Without much thought, Jiang Xiaoman threw down the reins, jumped up on his toes off the ground, and rushed forward like a vigorous ape.

In an instant, he waved his hand around the child, who was no more than three or four years old, and took it back, and then with his other hand, he swung his fist and smashed it on the head of the brown steed that was galloping without any slowdown.

With a mournful roar, even the people and horses fell to the ground with a bang, splashing dust.

Jiang Xiaoman ignored the few children behind him who were obviously acting recklessly under the protection of their father's remnants, and carefully handed over the child in his arms to the woman who was scared stupid with tears on her face.

Telling the woman to walk quickly with the child in her arms, the boy turned and walked towards the young man who looked older than himself, and who had grown a beard and rode the horse.

"Something?"

Jiang Xiaoman squatted down, looked at the young man who couldn't get up from the ground for a long time, and asked coldly.

He thought that if this young man, who obviously did not have a good impression at all, dared to say another provocative sentence, then he really had to pick up the picks.

Along the way, there were not ten but eight cities that passed by.

Fortunately, the folk customs in the border areas are quite simple, even if they are the children of the big clans in various cities, although they are stubborn, they are not completely unbearable.

It makes the young man who wants to be a hero have almost no chance to make a move.

Hero, you have to clean up one or two treacherous people to be successful.

Although it is said that Jiang Xiaoman at this time is still like a blank piece of paper, he has never faded and really grown.

But after all, it is the blood of the Jiang family that flows in his bones.

Like his father, like his third uncle, like his eleventh uncle, and those uncles who are in the belly of the dynasty.

A group of princes, who traveled when they were young, which one is not a hot-blooded master.

Jiang Yao told his son that if he didn't fight two earth-shattering fights that caused a sensation in the Southern Regions or even farther in the Northern Regions, he would be embarrassed to return to Vermilion Bird City in the future.

I'm worried that there is no opponent along the way.

No, just entering Jinzhou City gave Jiang Xiaoman a chance to fight.

Where can he miss this, he wishes that this guy who dares to commit murder will be more arrogant and pick quarrels and provoke trouble.

Then, he took advantage of the situation and beat him with a peach blossom face.

Then, the surrounding people will inevitably applaud, if there are a few more girls who are fascinated by their chivalry, it will undoubtedly be better.

Then, I was able to shout with a shock, I am Jiang Xiaoman of Vermilion Bird City.

In this way, it can be regarded as the first step to complete the hero's fame.

"No... It's okay. The young man got up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, and laughed softly, "It is I who is reckless, who patronizes and laughs with his friends, but forgets the rules of the city that one should dismount." ”

After that, he turned to look at the obviously frightened companions behind him and said, "You say yes?"

Those chicks pecked the rice and nodded repeatedly, saying yes.

Although it was not cowardice, this attitude also made Jiang Xiaoman feel like a fist hit into cotton, and he didn't have the strength to vent.

I can't help but secretly wonder if I really lost my eyes.

These people were obviously arrogant just now, and at a glance, they knew that they were the unruly masters.

But why did they become sheep now...

"Pay attention in the future, this is in the city after all, if you really hurt someone and kill someone, it is a big thing that pierces the sky, even your father can't protect you. Jiang Xiaoman waved his hand, shook his head helplessly, and looked at a few people with a look of hatred that iron could not become steel.

Since there is no chance to sell, it is better to find a cheaper hotel as a temporary place to stay.

"This brother, leave slowly!"

turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by the young boy who had beaten people and horses before.

"What's the matter? What else can't be taught?" Jiang Xiaoman raised his eyebrows slightly, tilted his head and asked.

I was excited in my heart, this is right, the road to fame of this hero is finally about to really begin.

This young man can just appear as the villain of the first battle of fame, and after he will go down in history in the future, he can be recorded in history together, which can be regarded as this stubborn and ineffective creation...

"Don't dare!" The young man took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a scarlet elixir, bent down and fed it to the fallen to the ground, only to be poured into the mouth of the fainting mount by the young man's fist, and said with a smile: "In Xia Han Xunzhi, I Guan Brother Tai has an extraordinary temperament and does not seem to be a person from my Jincheng, he must be the young hero who has traveled the world, I want to make friends with Brother Tai, and dare to ask Brother Tai's name?"

I don't know what kind of elixir Han Xunzhi fed that mount, the brown horse that should have fainted for at least a few hours, slowly opened his eyes after a while, straightened up and shook his hooves, and let out a low roar at Jiang Xiaoman's mouth like a tiger and leopard in the mountains, not like a horse.

Obviously, there is a lot of hostility towards this human who dares to hurt himself.

"If you don't change your name, you don't change your surname, my name is Jiang Xiaoman. Jiang Xiaoman nodded, for a beast, he didn't care about it, seeing that this young man had such an attitude, it was not good to give a cold face, smiled and said softly.

Surname Jiang?

Han Xunzhi's heart moved, and he thought secretly.

This surname is of great significance in the Southern Regions.

"It turned out to be Brother Jiang, the younger brother dared to ask, who are you, who are you?" Although Han Xun was surprised in his heart, his face remained unchanged, and he asked the young man in front of him tentatively.

"Hehe, I'm ashamed to say that although my surname is Jiang, I am not a member of our Southern Regions Supreme Clan, and I have never known the military lord. ”

Jiang Xiaoman didn't deliberately hide it, but after all, this was still in the Southern Regions.

This trip to the north was originally to travel and sharpen oneself.

Although the boy has a bit of an upright temperament, he is not a stupid person.

Unlike the previous encounters on the way, he went out to mingle with his peers.

If you can really become friends, it depends on the feeling, fate, not the identity of the Great Xia royal family.

"Oh, whether it is or not, I do want to get acquainted with you, a friend. An obscure light flashed in Han Xunzhi's eyes, and he smiled at Jiang Xiaoman: "It's just lunch time right now, I don't know if Brother Jiang will give me a face, let my little brother do his best to be a landlord." ”

Speaking of which, it's really a bit shy in my pocket.

Although there is still a thick stack of gold leaves in the baggage on his body now, he will return it to Ji Xiaoyue in the future, and he can't move a cent.

Although this person still doesn't like it in his heart in the end, Jiang Xiaoman is still very happy to invite someone to dinner.

"In this way, thank you Brother Han in advance. Jiang Xiaoman arched his hand, touched his head and became a little embarrassed: "The situation was urgent just now, and I also wanted to prevent Brother Han from making a big mistake, how offended, please don't be surprised." ”

"Don't dare!" Han Xun stepped forward and hugged the shoulders of the young man in front of him, and said with a smile: "In this Jincheng, the drunken shrimp and drunken crab in the drunken Xianglou, the rouge chicken in the Fuzhao Building, and the Buddha jumping over the wall in the Yanyun Pavilion are the most famous, I don't know which one Brother Jiang wants to go to try it?"

Jiang Xiaoman frowned slightly, and then chuckled: "Guests are as they please, just listen to Brother Han's arrangement." ”

It's a little unaccustomed to being so familiar with a stranger I just knew.

But seeing that Han Xunzhi is so enthusiastic, he can't say anything,

"Haha, this season is the time for crab fat and shrimp fresh, then let's go and taste the drunk shrimp and drunk crab in this drunken fragrance building, speaking of which, I may not have eaten it for a long time, but I think about it a little tightly. ”

As he spoke, he pulled Jiang Xiaoman forward.

The hand behind his back made an obscure gesture to a few of his companions.

Zuixianglou is on the other side of Jinzhou City, and the two lead horses side by side.

Behind him, several young men of similar age followed.

One is surnamed Li, the other is surnamed Zhang, and the other is Han Xunzhi's younger brother, named Han Yi.

These people are all children of the big clan in Jincheng.

Han Xunzhi looked at the snow-white mount of the young man beside him without a trace of variegated hair, his mind moved, and he pretended to ask casually: "If you are not mistaken, Brother Jiang, your white horse is the hard-to-change Lu?"

In terms of the level of the divine horse alone, this white horse, which was called Xiaobai by the young man, was not much better than the spirit horse captured by the three elders of the Acquired Realm who were dispatched from his own clan, and even faintly on it.

Come to think of it, even if it wasn't the legendary thunderbolt alien Lu, it wasn't much worse.

Han Xunzhi looked at the strange mount that was as white as snow, his eyes were hot, and the corners of his mouth raised an inexplicable arc slightly.

There is a way for a good horse to choose the master, and after a while, this good horse should change hands.

Jiang Xiaoman?

A stupid boy with brute force, a vulgar and lowly name!
