Qin people are straight-tempered and irritable, and it is common to see a disagreement with one's sword.
However, in the matter of the two dynasties, what can be won by the struggle between the marketplace
This kind of dispute, when the anger dissipates, it will be over, and no one will take it seriously.
Everything remains the same.
What Ding Ning does every day is the same as before. In his spare time, he walks around Changling City, practices after midnight, and opens shop early in the morning.
The weather is getting colder and colder. Ding Ning knows that autumn in Changling usually passes quickly. In the early morning, when the frost on the door panels is getting thicker and thicker, he can count on his fingers when the first snow will arrive.
It was still just past the morning time, and Ding Ning had just finished eating a bowl of fat intestine noodles and washing his special coarse porcelain bowl. At the entrance of the alley on one side, a group of brightly dressed students walked into the alley, talking and laughing happily.
Seeing the patterns on the students' clothes, Ding Ning's eyes showed a light that he didn't usually have.
He raised his head, looked at the sky above the sycamore tree that had lost all its leaves, and sighed in his heart with great emotion: "Is it finally here?"
…
The sword is the main weapon of Daqin practitioners.
The territory of the Great Qin Dynasty was forcibly carved out with swords by practitioners of successive dynasties during successive years of battles.
After Zhao Jianlu disappeared, the Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect of the Great Qin Dynasty were recognized as the strongest sword cultivating sects in the world.
The two major sword sects are extremely strict in preaching and teaching disciples. No matter whether they are accepting disciples or leaving the mountain, they only open the mountain gate on a few fixed days every year.
If the disciples cannot cultivate to a certain level, they can only stay in the mountain gate to practice for the rest of their lives, so as not to be cut off by someone with a sword after leaving the mountain gate, and fall into the prestige of the two great sword sects.
Apart from these two major sects, there are hundreds of famous sword schools in Changling alone. There are existences such as Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect to learn from and learn from. Nature is also very strict.
In most places of practice, only those who have reached the cultivation level above the three realms are eligible to travel freely outside. Those students who are far from the three realms are only allowed to play outside on a few release days.
Right now, this group of students, who are like birds out of cages, have several patterns on their clothes and different long swords. They obviously belong to several sword schools, but they have a good relationship on weekdays, so they travel together.
Among these students, the cuffs of the plain satin robes of several of them were covered with cloud patterns. Ding Ning's eyes fell on those cloud patterns from time to time.
…
Those who can enter the various sword schools are naturally young talents from Changling, and those who can stay in the end will definitely become practitioners. The best of the best. Those students whose cultivation speed is not good, dare not relax for a moment even during the release day, and practice desperately, wanting to be among the top.
Among this group of students, the tall, square-faced young man who walked at the front was Xu Heshan, the fifth son of the Xu Mansion in Nancheng.
The Xu Mansion in Nancheng was a big family in Guanzhong in the previous dynasty, and later there were several generals, who were granted the title of Thousand Households. It can be regarded as a profound heritage, and it is not like many clans who were weakened by the New Deal in the Yuanwu period.
The children of this generation of Xu's family are also very competitive. Except for one ninth son who has been sick since childhood and has no potential for cultivation, the rest of the children have all entered various places of practice.
This Xu Heshan practiced in Qingsong Sword Academy, and among the students of the same academy in the same year, he has few opponents.
In addition to him, this group of students also had a boy in a plain satin robe and a girl in a purple satin robe with extraordinary backgrounds.
The boy in the plain satin robe seemed to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, with a medium build, although his face was immature but full of pride, and there happened to be cloud patterns on the cuffs of the satin robe on his body. The name of this young man is Xie Changsheng. Xie’s family is a wealthy businessman in Zhongnan, and his mother is from the Zhongshan family of the Wei Dynasty. Before the Qin and Wei wars began, his mother persuaded many people from Zhongshan’s family to come to Changling. , cut off contact with the Wei Dynasty, and the Xie family was able to occupy a place in Changling later because of that unusually farsighted move.
As for the girl Nangong Caishu in a purple satin robe, she is a new nobleman in Changling, and her father is a general guarding Lishi County, which was originally an important city of the Zhao Dynasty. Generally speaking, the generals who can guard such places are the most important ministers trusted by His Majesty the Emperor.
Although they are young talents with a good relationship, after all, their status and family background are poor. When they talk, the rest of them are more or less cautious and overly courteous. There is a certain distance, so the sides of these three people are obviously much more empty than the surroundings of the rest.
The three of them didn't notice it. Xu Heshan, who was walking in the front, smiled and was very talkative. When he saw the wine flag in front of him, he turned his body slightly, and smiled at the young talents beside him: "It should be that one." Home, it is said that the brewing is completely out of order, it is extremely bad, but because the female boss is so beautiful, so the business is very good, today I want to see if the rumors are true."
Although Xie Changsheng next to him was young, he grinned when he heard the words, and said: "If that's the case, why don't you ask your father to help you arrange this marriage and take him as a concubine, so as not to be snatched first. "
The young talents around laughed, but the girl Nangong Caishu in a purple satin robe frowned in disgust, looked at Xu Heshan and Xie Changsheng and snorted coldly: "I'm afraid it's true, but in the end it's Brother Xu His father has an extra concubine."
Xu Heshan suddenly showed embarrassment, his father was known to be lustful, and he had already accepted nine concubines.
Because it is rare to have a relaxing day, these young talents are in an excellent mood. Amidst the laughter, Xu Heshan, who walked in the front, finally stepped into the unnamed wine shop of Wutongluo.
Ding Ning calmly looked at Xu Heshan who had crossed the threshold.
Xu Heshan, who was in a good mood, glanced at the surrounding environment, then looked at Ding Ning who did not take the initiative to greet him, thinking that the environment of the wine shop was indeed consistent with the legend, so he smiled kindly, looked at Ding Ning and asked: "This Boss, are you alone in the store?"
Ding Ning looked at these Changling young talents, and said directly: "Are you here to drink, or do you want to see my aunt?"
Seeing Ding Ning's reaction, these Changling young talents were startled, and immediately realized that the other party must have seen such things a lot on weekdays, and the expectations in these people's hearts were instantly raised by several points.
The tender-faced Xie Changsheng was the most seasoned at this time, and smiled slightly: "So what if you want to drink, so what if you want to see your aunt?"
Ding Ning said nonchalantly: "If you want to drink, come here according to the rules, pay for the drink and find a seat, and if you want to see my aunt, unless all the wine outside is sold out."
"It's interesting."
A group of people laughed out loud.
"No wonder the business is so good, I just hope you don't disappoint us." Xie Changsheng shook his head and smiled, took out a coin from his clothes and threw it on the table.
The sound of coins falling on the table was slight, but even those young talents behind Xie Changsheng were slightly shocked in their hearts.
This is a mica knife coin.
"If you don't let me down, this mica knife reward is nothing to you." What makes those young talents feel that there is an unspeakable gap between Xie Changsheng and Xie Changsheng is that Xie Changsheng who casually threw this mica knife coin , continued calmly.
Nangong Caishu frowned deeply, even though the Xie family was indeed one of the richest people in Guanzhong, Xie Changsheng's behavior still displeased her.
Even if he could impress this street boy immediately, Xie Changsheng didn't think about it. Most of the people around him may not have a mica knife coin for a year's service.
There is much help for those who are right, but little help for those who are unjust. Sometimes it is just such inadvertent actions that can create a gap between people and make them unable to get close.
However, at this moment, a calm voice sounded: "I want the wine for myself."
Nangong Caishu was stunned for a moment.
She looked at Ding Ning in astonishment, as if she wanted to see a flower from Ding Ning's peaceful face.
Everyone was also stunned.
This was also the answer Xie Changsheng didn't expect. He raised his head, looked at Ding Ning with displeasure, and said, "Is it okay to just buy but not drink? The most important thing in business is to know how to be flexible. Can't you just send a few jars?"
Ding Ning immediately turned his head and called out to the backyard, "Auntie."
With such a quick reaction, Xie Changsheng couldn't help being taken aback.
Xu Heshan and the others looked at each other and smiled, and they all thought Ding Ning was interesting. At this moment, the curtain leading to the backyard was blown by the breeze, and the eldest grandson Qianxue, who was holding a wine jar, walked out.
All the young talents, whether it is Xu Heshan, Xie Changsheng, or even Nangong Caishu, just saw Changsun Qianxue for the first time, and their hearts skipped a beat, just like seeing the elders in the Sword Academy for the first time. The shock when showing the realm.
They were all stunned, and they couldn't believe it in their hearts. In a place like Wutongluo, there was such a beautiful woman.
Xie Changsheng's lips parted slightly, but he who could easily spend a lot of money was completely speechless at this moment.
Changsun Qianxue looked at him with cold eyes at this time, making his hands seem a little cold, but what he was thinking at the moment was, what kind of color would such a beautiful woman be when she showed her face and smiled .
With a soft "bang", Changsun Qianxue put the wine jar she was holding on the stage in front of Ding Ning.
Xu Heshan's heart also jumped violently, and only then did he regain his senses.
All of this was as Ding Ning imagined, but at this moment, his expression changed slightly.
There was a sound of horseshoes, and at the end of the alley, there was a carriage approaching unhurriedly.
