Chapter 0525 Ancestral House

Gwangju Metropolitan City, the second floor of Crescent Restaurant.

Ruyue and Bai Zhining were sitting alone in a corner. Because they needed to eat, they both took off their veils. As a result, the gazes of the surrounding disciples suddenly increased. With intertwined gazes, even the temperature rose slightly.

Ruyue, who was already thin-faced, felt extremely uncomfortable being stared at, but Bai Zhining beside Ruyue was still expressionless, looking as cold as ice, exuding an aura of repelling people thousands of miles away, so he also gave up some boldness The minds of the disciples who came to chat.

After a while, Ruyue gently tugged at the corner of Bai Zhining's clothes, and then said softly:

"Sister Bai, it's almost time to eat, let's go for a walk in Guangyu City."

"it is good!"

Bai Zhining nodded, and then the two got up and put on their veils, and under the gaze of many eyes, they walked slowly down the Crescent Moon Restaurant.

"I really can't stand the gazes of these stinky men, it seems that these two fairy sisters have been forced away."

Beside the fat man, the thin man, who had been admiringly watching the two, muttered something in a low voice, and then the fat man Qiu Hengji also stood up and walked out. At the same time, a faint voice came into the former's ear:

"I really don't know, you still have a habit of scolding yourself."

After the voice fell, the thin man was taken aback for a moment, and then he found that the still round fat man in a gray robe had gone far away, so he hurriedly followed him, and when he came to his side, the thin man raised his left hand, jumped up and slapped the fat man on the arm On it, with a snap, Fatty trembled.

The Crescent Moon Restaurant in the Guangyu City has an excellent location, just in the most prosperous area of ​​the entire city. In addition, the moon is at the top of the moon and the weather is clear, so the streets are very lively with people coming and going.

On both sides of the streets of Guangyu City, there are shops selling various items. Gwangju has a large population, and the demand for various daily necessities is naturally great. However, compared with Chuzhou, Jinzhou and other eastern states, Gwangju is not rich and has countless human races. Years of reproduction have almost emptied Gwangju's natural resources. Therefore, the shops along these streets sell cheap items collected from all over Daxia.

Throughout the ages, merchants are the most able to find out the context of the entire big city and the people living in it. If those excellent silk clothes sold in Jiangling City and Qiushui City are sold in this wide area city, it will definitely cost nothing. return.

Bai Zhining and Ruyue walked forward slowly along the flow of people. Ruyue kept looking around with her little head, and was extremely interested in those cute objects like rattles and tiger puppets, but she was limited to holding them in her hands. Let's see, although Baidi Palace will distribute monthly money to the two of them as usual, Ruyue, who is already sensible, still deposits all the money in Bai Zhining's hands.

As Zhao Yu's maidservants, the young emperor who followed back to Beijing came to this wide area city half a year ago, so their purpose of going to the streets this time is very clear, that is to go to the old house in Tsingyi Lane to clean up the old house. Cleaning, pay respect to the duties of a maid.

After half a stick of incense, the flow of people around the two girls gradually decreased, and at the same time there were two more people around them, a fat man and a thin man.

In front of Bai Zhining, the fat man gestured lightly to the flickering dagger hanging from his waist, and under the gaze of the thin man's inconceivable eyes, he followed Ermei in a majestic manner. Afterwards, under the guidance of the surrounding people, everyone gradually Close to Tsing Yi Lane.

But this Tsing Yi Lane is not that Tsing Yi Lane. Tsing Yi Lane was completely destroyed half a year ago in the battle of the Metropolitan City, leaving only a lonely old house, and this alley in front of everyone is brand new. Yes, the ground is brand new, but the old house at the bottom of the alley is old.

But almost no one knows that this old house accommodated the childhood of the current Lord of Great Xia, Emperor Fuyao.

A few people walked in this brand-new alley under the moonlight. Under the moonlight, they looked like the moon, their cheeks were red. Looking at the lights coming out of the alley, they spoke softly:

"Sister Bai, the Ministry of Industry in the Metropolitan City is really efficient. I remember that the whole area around here was smashed and turned into ruins."

After finishing speaking, Ruyue raised her hand and waved it from left to right to indicate a large area around her. Afterwards, Bai Zhining nodded and responded softly:

"After His Majesty returned to Beijing, the White Emperor Palace specially dispatched personnel directly under it to supervise the reconstruction of the Metropolitan City. Naturally, it will be soon."

"It turns out that this is the place where His Majesty Fuyao killed the saint in Guangyu City. If other disciples in the sect know, they must come here to have a look!"

The thin man looked around carefully, and let out a sound of admiration. He knew best how powerful a saint was, and in this little-known alley, a saint fell here half a year ago.

The death knell of heaven and earth is sounding here, and the bloody storm is rampant here.

That will definitely be a shocking battle of ghosts and gods!

During the conversation, several people came to the old house. On the old wooden door of the house, there were three words, all of which were home.

The first family character has a beautiful font, but it is bold and unrestrained between hooks and strokes, forming a unique artistic conception of both elegance and arrogance, while the second family character, although a bit rusty, is square and calm Powerful, followed by the last character jia, crooked and crooked, completely written by children at the stage of learning characters.

The three characters on the old wooden door, the first one comes from the Crown Princess at that time, the second one was written by Zhao Yu, and the last one comes from Liang Po.

Bai Zhining stretched out his hand and lightly stroked the three lettering on the door. For some reason, he trembled a little, as if thousands of thoughts burst out in an instant.

Everyone has a home in their hearts.

"Excuse me, are you here looking for someone, but the owner of this house hasn't come back for nearly ten years."

Suddenly, an old female voice came from the street, and an old woman in a coat came out of the house next door, and then approached with some staggering, the voice continued:

"More than ten years ago, I remember very clearly that a young girl came here with two very young children. She was the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my life, but it is a pity that it took a full six years. It was she who was pulling the two babies by herself. At that time, when I was old, I often went to help, and I saw her in the yard, teaching the babies to read.

"One of the little ones is carved in powder and jade, as if it came out of a painting, and the other little one, good guy, is as tall as an adult at a young age, but still has a small bald head, which impresses me deeply. , so after so many years, I still remember it so clearly.”

Bai Zhining gently pulled Ruyue forward, then solemnly bowed to the old woman, and said softly:

"This is my son's ancestral home. You are very busy, so it's hard to get away. Therefore, as maids, when we pass by Guangzhou Metropolitan City, we naturally have to come here to tidy up and clean up."

Chapter 0526 Chess Pieces

In the Gwangju Metropolitan City at night, the full moon in the sky is like a big millstone hanging above the head, and at the same time, the moon gate illuminated by it is also extraordinarily bright.

Therefore, the white-haired old woman wearing a coat can clearly see the pretty faces of Bai Zhining and Ruyue. The two of them are like two shining jade stones in this long street. A slightly joking voice then sounded:

"It seems that the little girl in this family has grown up to be promising, and has two such beautiful maids."

"Mammy was joking."

After Xiao Ruyue heard this, she lowered her head in embarrassment, but there was a trace of joy in her tone, and the little girl was still extremely happy when she heard others praise her.

"Nurse, it's cold outside, you come in with me first, so as not to catch a cold."

At this time, the whole summer has already entered winter, especially after nightfall, the temperature in Gwangju also dropped sharply, so Bai Zhining took out a key from his waist, it was given by Liang Po when he first came to this house, like the moon He is a little confused and often loses things, so the key is kept by the careful and prudent Bai Zhining.

After a crisp click, Bai Zhining gently pushed the door forward, and a very simple small courtyard came into everyone's sight.

Everyone crossed the threshold and then entered the courtyard. After looking around for a week, the old lady said strangely:

"It's strange to say that the scene in this yard is exactly the same as what I saw ten years ago. Look at the small wooden table and wooden stools over there. The hostess of this house was here to teach the children to read. It stands to reason These wooden and open-air tables and stools should have rotted long ago."

"Because the young master has not forgotten this place, someone will often take care of it. It's just that you haven't seen it, Madam."

Bai Zhining responded softly, and then greeted Ruyue at the side, and began to tidy up the yard full of fallen leaves. Maybe the old lady was lonely for too long on weekdays, so she was finally able to talk, so she turned her head to the side again. The standing fat man and the thin man opened their mouths and said:

"Looking at the robes on you, the old man should be from a certain sect, right?"

The chubby and fat man Qiu Hengji nodded, but the thin man beside him walked up to the old mother and started talking with a smile:

"Mommy, we are from Shenjing City."

"Shenjing city?"

This time it was the old mama's turn to be a little surprised, her originally cloudy eyes lit up, and then she continued to speak:

"Do you think that these young people are from the imperial capital, but near our Guangzhou Metropolitan City, there is also a Wanjiange, one of the ten major sects of Shenzhou Haotu. To tell you the truth, my son is practicing in Wanjiange .”

When mentioning her son, the old mother's tone was full of pride, but then she seemed to think of something, and then came out with a lonely voice:

"Originally, my filial son would come down the mountain to visit me as an old woman every once in a while, but I don't know what happened in the Wanjiang Pavilion recently. The pavilion has been closed for several months, and I am very worried."

As soon as this remark came out, the fat man who was standing quietly at the side focused his eyes, and he couldn't help but think of the girl Jiansheng who hurried back from Shenjing City to Wanjiange in Guangzhou a few months ago.

That was a natural born swordsman, but he only caught a glimpse of it among the younger generation, and then returned to the court again.

Then the fat man pondered for a while, and then said softly:

"This time, the Linglong Sect and Haicuo Sect on the seaside of the giant gods are said to have sent invitations to all the main sects in the Great Xia. Naturally, Wanjiange is on the list of invitations. Let's see if the disciples of Jiange will come or not!"

The moon and stars are scarce, and all the birds return to their nests.

Ruyue and Bai Zhining were born in poor families when they were young, so they were extremely clumsy in their work, and it only took a stick of incense to clean up the whole house extremely clean.

Then Bai Zhining locked the door of the old house, turned around, and the group of people stepped on the brand new street of Tsing Yi Lane again, bathed in the moonlight like water, and went outside. There was a sudden fluctuation, and then a pony waving its wings broke through the air, suspending quietly in the air.

Fatty's complexion remained unchanged, he reached out and took out a letter from the flying messenger, opened it, glanced at it, and put it in his arms, but what the rest of the people didn't notice was that when the always steady fatty looked at the letter, his eyes slightly twitched. An imperceptible shake.

There are many plains in Gwangju, the terrain is gentle, and there are few mountains and forests.

Shaoshan means less ferocious beasts, and Shaolin can open up roads very easily, so the roads in Guangzhou in Daxia are criss-crossed, and the traffic is extremely developed.

Moreover, there is a large river running through from east to west, which nourishes the soil on both sides and enables a large amount of farmland to be irrigated. This also provides the most solid guarantee for the early development of the human race, allowing the human race to move outward Expansion, so as to conquer the entire vast land of China in a very short period of time.

The mother river that runs through the entire Gwangju is called the Yuan River. It passes through more than ten states, and finally flows into the Jushen Sea from Fengzhou. It is also one of the most important rivers in Daxia.

The surface of the Yuanjiang River in Gwangju is extremely wide, and in early winter, the water flow is not turbulent. At night, the originally busy boats on the Yuanjiang River all rest on the shore, and only fish foraging for food at night occasionally jump out of the river. There is plenty of food inside, so these fish are fat and strong. Those who jump out of the water are generally half the size of a person, and when they fall, they splash a lot of waves.

The moon in the sky is reflected on the turbulent river surface, bringing the silence after night, in stark contrast to the busy day.

Suddenly, in the center of the entire river, waves rose slightly, and the flowing river was broken by a pitch-black dilapidated boat to both sides, but there was no sound, no sound came out.

This boat sailing fast on the Yuanjiang River was extremely miserable, not to mention the holes everywhere, the whole body was only half, and the second half didn't exist at all. At the same time, there were many ghosts wandering around and in the sky above, thus isolating the breath.

A particularly hunched figure in black robes sat on the bow of the boat, coughing uncontrollably from time to time.

Then, Bai Mingxiu, the great elder of Mingzong who was also suffering from five declines, raised his head, and two pale will-o'-the-wisps burned out of thin air under the broken black robe, and then he looked to the side, following the direction of his gaze , there is a big city on the bank of the river, the Wide Area City!

Bai Mingxiu didn't dare to step into this city, but the gaze shot out of his eyes with the flickering ghost fire seemed to penetrate this vast distance, and directly locked on a beautiful girl with a cold complexion who was walking in the wide area city. , and then a low, inaudible voice faintly sounded from under the black robe.

"The pawns laid out at the beginning, it's time to collect the net, whether it is life or death, it depends on this time!"

Chapter 0527 Post-War Construction

The deserted city in the southwest of Daxia, as long as the weather is clear, the moon in the sky will be extraordinarily huge, and it will also appear extraordinarily low, making people feel that it is within reach.

After the Southwest War ended, the number of people in the entire Leizhou prefecture suddenly tripled compared to before. Most of them were the Nanman soldiers who had withdrawn from the front line. After all, Zhao Yu suppressed the Southern barbarians. With two towering city walls, Leizhou naturally does not need to maintain such a large number of military personnel as before.

However, the King of the Western Man did not retreat directly to return to farming. First, the monotonous and weak social and ecological system in Leizhou, including Zhenhuang City, could not support the impact of such a large population. Second, after talking with Zhao Yu, The old western barbarian king has set his sights on building a larger southwestern giant city around the teleportation stone tower.

The geographical defect of the deserted city of Leizhou Town is obvious, but its advantages are also incomparable, because the huge Nanman Island is next to it, and the dense Nanman jungle is an inexhaustible treasure house. If it is completely connected with stone towers, it is foreseeable that the resource-rich Nanban jungle will attract countless people of Daxia to explore.

In a sense, a floating population represents development.

Therefore, with a big wave of his hand, the old Western barbarian king, the soldiers who returned from the front line, after returning home to rest for a few days, assembled again in the deserted city, and then under the planning of the craftsmen of the palace, they started construction work in full swing.

In a house in the center of Zhenhuang City, Lao Jin and others had just had dinner and were chatting in the yard while enjoying the shade.

With broken hair and red face, Lao Jin completely retired after the Southwest War. He planted trees and flowers at home all day long, but this guy couldn't rest at all. It's an honor to come from a big family and drink a lot.

"Shunzi, today you took Xiaoyi and Ziyue to attend lectures at the newly opened Daxia Academy, did you gain anything?"

Lao Jin was wearing a light short shirt, his only remaining hand was picking teeth in his mouth without any image, and then he casually spoke to a dark young man opposite, and then the skinny boy Shunzi took his hand The cantaloupe swallowed in his stomach, and he responded:

"Listening to Mr. Xuegong's words is better than reading ten years of books."

After Shunzi's words fell, the two girls, Jin Yi and Ziyue beside him, laughed lightly. Lao Jin stared at him with one eye, grabbed the plantain fan beside him, and threw it violently, and then spat all over the place:

"Fuck you kid, you haven't read a lot of books since you were a child, and you still talk to me. We finally got a serious school in the deserted city. You have to study hard for me. My old Jin understands It’s gone, the world will change from now on, it’s no longer the era when we were young and rashly produced heroes.”

It is worth mentioning that on the second day after the end of the Southwest War, Confucian scholars from Shenjing City established a Daxia Academy in Zhenhuang City, and its location was just at the gate of the city, and it was the same as the original What the middle-aged Taoist priest and the old lady at the city gate said was exactly the same.

With the support of the Ximan Palace, the Daxia Academy in Zhenhuang City has a huge area and can accommodate a large number of Leizhou citizens to attend lectures. Therefore, young people who have spare time in Zhenhuang City have gone to the school these days, but To Shunzi's surprise, Lao Jin, who is a typical old and rough character, paid special attention to this, and would ask about the content of the school almost every day.

"Father, don't worry, we all listened to what Mr. said very carefully, without any sloppy."

Jin Yi, who has a good face and is very sensible, stepped forward gently, and gave Lao Jin a piece of freshly cut cantaloupe, at the same time, a soft voice came out, while the young man Shunzi took another piece, and walked slowly towards a corner of the yard. In a corner, there was an extremely burly figure, just sitting on the ground, like a king elephant in the southern jungle.

Shunzi walked up to the figure, handed out the golden melon in his hand, with a respectful face, and then said softly:

"Exaggeration, let's have a piece of honey melon, a specialty of our Leizhou. This melon is extremely sweet, just like honey."

"Thank you, put it aside for now, and eat it when I finish making the puppet in my hand."

A thick reply followed. Lava Kua, who looked ferocious and had a beard braided into braids, was concentrating on tearing off the branches in his hands with his big thick hands.

I saw lava Kua's hands releasing unimaginably high temperatures, and even the void in front of him felt a strong fuzzy feeling, but the strange thing was that Shunzi next to him couldn't feel any temperature, and the branch in Kua's hand Then it melted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after a while, a lifelike Nanman forest deer appeared in front of the eyes, extremely realistic, as if it would come alive in the next second.

Lava Kua put the newly made jungle deer at his feet. Besides, beside its burly body, there are dozens of puppets in total, including tigers, leopards, bears and other imposing beasts, as well as rabbits. Deer and other cute-looking animals, Lava Kua stretched out his fingers, counted them carefully, and whispered softly:

"Yezi wants the deer, Erleizi wants the tiger, and Heizi wants the bear."

After counting, Lava Kua patted his hands with a relieved expression on his face. In order to build a good relationship with the children who listened to the Great Xia Law, this ancient giant who has existed for countless years has resorted to He tried his best, but fortunately, these little kids have no resistance to puppets, and now he has become the most popular character in the whole school.

And the young Shunzi who was watching attentively from the side, his eyes were full of splendor at this time, he who had merged with the awakened soldier law cultivator soul, naturally knew what Lava Kua, a hand-made puppet, had to control his vitality Harsh, but when I think about the identity of the other party, I feel that it should be taken for granted.

When Lao Jin's family was entrusted by Zhao Yu to temporarily take in the ancient giant Kua, they all dropped their jaws in shock.

It is no exaggeration to say that this giant was once the king of the entire Nanban!

After pinching the puppets requested by the kids yesterday, Lava Kua then picked up the cantaloupe that Shunzi had just brought over, and began to taste it carefully. Perhaps it was because the size of the puppets was too large for countless years, and he couldn't change his habits for a while, so His movements seemed slow and sluggish in the eyes of ordinary people, and after a few mouthfuls, Shunzi's soft voice of inquiry came from his ear:

"Exaggeration, you should have finished learning the laws of Great Xia, right?"

Lava Kua nodded, and a rough response sounded:

"Today is the last few. Tomorrow, give these puppets to the classmates, and it will be officially completed."

"Then what are your plans next?"

As soon as this question came out, Lava Kua pondered for a moment, then looked up into the distance, and responded:

"I want to visit Shenjing City."
