There are crying women, children, and old people everywhere in the city, and white cloth is hung in many places. Poor families have no money to buy standard white silk, so they just hang up a piece of white cloth at will, which is regarded as a funeral.

There are also many potholes on the street ground in many places. I don't know if something hits it, which will cause this situation.

Lu Sheng looked around all the way, Jiulian City was half disabled after this battle.

After looking around the city, he visited the homes of the masters who had practiced martial arts one by one. Fortunately, these masters are alert people, they protected themselves well, and did not suffer any tragedy. After seeing the master, he each sent a lot of silver notes, and then went to Zheng's house again.

Snapped.

Zheng Xiangui clapped his hands heavily.

"Brother Sheng, I'll be with you too! Yu'er and I will go with your team? Is that okay? His grandma's, this is the escort of officers and soldiers, the treatment only county magistrates have!"

Lu Sheng was speechless. He glanced at the Zheng family whose house was pitch-black everywhere. It was obvious that a lot of trouble had happened here.

"Just you and Yu'er?" He asked casually.

"Well, just like your family, the rest of the people scattered to other cities. This time, my father can see that this Jiulian City is a place of right and wrong. Even if nothing happens in the future, if the previous thing happens again, we will not If you dodge with such good luck, if you hadn’t introduced Daoist Huanyangzi this time, brother Sheng, our Zheng family would have suffered heavy losses.”

He paused, then sighed: "It's a pity, little girl...."

Lu Sheng was speechless.

After being silent for a while, he said again: "So, nothing happened to your family?"

Zheng Xiangui was stopped by the question, lowered his voice, looked around, and whispered: "My elder brother is gone...."

"Okay... this is indeed a good thing for you." Lu Sheng was speechless. "Then since you guys want to be with me, I'm going to go on the road tomorrow, and then you should prepare quickly and inform Yu'er as well."

"Okay!" Zheng Xiangui nodded. Both of them actually knew in their hearts that after this trip to Jiulian City, the two families actually planned to relocate in their hearts. If they changed to a big city, those Jianghu people would not dare to be so rampant. The conflagration would not have been so blatant.

After leaving Zheng's house, Lu Sheng began to pack his things neatly. This time he went to study. Dongshan College is a very famous college in Yanshan City and even in many nearby cities. The rules of the college are strict. All students are not allowed to bring maids and maids. , so Xiaoqiao can only stay in Jiulian City temporarily.

After hastily preparing, Lu Quanan stuffed 10,000 taels of gold tickets in Lu Sheng's pocket, and let him leave the city with the officers and soldiers who were ready to set off.

It's just that when Lu Sheng was about to leave, he heard vaguely that Song Duanchi, the prefect of Jiulian City, seemed to have suffered from a serious illness a few days ago, and he couldn't afford it, and now he was about to die.

He thought of the big explosion in the Pearl Mansion before, and guessed in his heart that it was very likely that Chi Yu was affected by this incident. This prefect of Song Dynasty is actually a poor man...

It was early in the morning when we set off, and the sky was slightly bright.

Lu Sheng stood in the team, his face pale, and he was wrapped in a thick white fox fur coat, as if a whole white fox fur coat wrapped him up, giving him a warm and noble air. This fox fur coat alone costs thousands of taels of silver.

He quietly looked at Jiulian City behind him. Perhaps he would not come back to this place in the future. Before his father Lu Quanan left, he had clearly told him that he wanted the whole family to move to Dacheng.

"Brother Sheng? What's the matter?" Zheng Xiangui stood aside with Zheng Yuer, who had flushed cheeks.

"It's nothing, just some feelings...cough cough" Lu Sheng started coughing again. He practiced the Black Sha Kung this time, which hurt his lung yang, and he took too many yin-nourishing herbs, so he felt a little Can't stand it.

"Let's go back to the carriage first, we are ready to hit the road, Mr. Sheng." Lao Niu, the captain of the officers and soldiers who led the team this time, came over and said.

Lu Sheng nodded, and finally glanced at Jiu Liancheng. He turned around and got into a carriage first.

"Let's go, let's go! Let's go, everyone!" Zheng Xiangui hurriedly shouted, he was getting impatient for a long time.

Yanshan City · February

Spring is in full bloom, and the large stretch of winter jasmine trees outside the city along the mountain gradually turns red like burning clouds. Countless small red flowers fell and formed again, and after forming and growing again, the ground and trees were covered with red.

Among them, by a small river in the south of the city, in a white octagonal pavilion, there are a few well-dressed college scholars sitting.

These scholars are all wearing gray and white long clothes, their long hair is tied with black scarves, and they are holding folding fans of the same standard in their hands.

"Brother Lu? Brother Lu??"

A slightly enthusiastic voice pulled Lu Sheng back from his distraction.

He turned his head, retracted his gaze from looking at the winter jasmine flowers all over the mountains and plains, and looked at the few people in the gazebo beside him.

The man who called him was Song Zhenguo, who came to study from the city of Beidi like him. This man was from a wealthy family, and he was proficient in everything from snacks to entertainment. At the same time, he was also quite handsome. He often organized like-minded people to go out for outings. .

Song Zhenguo was introduced by Zheng Xiangui to Lu Sheng, and most of the people present were from the same township, most of them were college students from the northern cities, so they naturally gathered together to hold a group together during this trip.

"Brother Song, forgive me, forgive me, I was distracted for a while." Lu Sheng smiled.

It has been half a year since Yan Kai and the other three were sent away last time.

In half a year, he came from Jiulian City to Yanshan City, all the way here, and lived here for several months, without encountering any unusual things.

The law and order along the mountain city is very good, with Fei Lian army patrolling in shifts around the clock, with a radius of more than ten miles, enough to keep the door open at night. Compared with Jiulian City, it is like a sky and a ground.

There are no disasters, no ghosts here, not even many cases of dead people, and the civilians walking outside the city are also well-dressed, instead of being naked like Jiulian City.

Not long after he came here, he found Dongshan College with Zheng Xiangui and his brother and sister, went through the admission procedures, and then enrolled until now, it has been three months.

In the past three months, Lu Sheng finally managed to make up for the injuries he suffered from promoting Heisha Gong, and his body gradually recovered.

When he came back to his senses, Lu Sheng looked at the people in the pavilion.

These college students are playing a game similar to Qushui Liushang.

Fill the wine glass with wine and ask the servants to lower it from the stream at one end of the pavilion. Then all the students wait in the gazebo to watch the wine glass being washed and floated slightly by the stream. Whoever stops in front of it must drink the wine and answer A personal matter for everyone to decide.

In the gazebo, apart from Song Zhenwai, there were five or six other students, all of whom were merchants. There are two other women, wearing white dresses and blue dresses, sitting on the sidelines watching the crowd play, covering their mouths and chuckling from time to time when they heard something interesting.

One of the two women is also from their hometown and looks beautiful.

Another girl who looks like Xiaojiabiyu and has a small cherry mouth is called Chen Yunxi, but she is a native of Yanshan City.

Chen Yunxi's appearance can be regarded as decent. Although she does not have the pretty faces of many girls in the academy, she has fair skin, one of the best figures, and her long legs and thin waist are especially eye-catching.

But such conditions are only average for people in this world. From Lu Sheng's point of view, Chen Yunxi can be regarded as a standard beauty. Especially a pair of slender jade legs, well-proportioned and tight, with an extremely perfect outline.

It's a pity... People here don't like long legs, but prefer the petite and exquisite type, especially the legs should not be too long.

Therefore, in Lu Sheng's eyes, big beauties like Chen Yunxi have become middle-lower figures that people here don't think much of.

Thinking of this, Lu Sheng noticed that Chen Yunxi's eyes fell on him unconsciously. He couldn't help but smile wryly.

He just chatted with the other party a few times, and it was because of Song Zhenguo's recommendation. I didn't expect that after such a chat, I unexpectedly fell in love with this woman. The two chatted constantly, and soon became friends of the opposite sex. It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. For some reason, Chen Yunxi's eyes gradually changed when he saw him, and there was something wrong in it.

Chen Yunxi's eyes kept falling on Lu Sheng, the brilliance in her eyes could be seen by anyone.

"Brother Lu, Yunxi's eyes are always on you." A student on the side joked.

"Beautiful woman favors, everyone said, should I be fined a cup!" another person booed.

"Miss Yunxi is kind-hearted and has a wealth of wealth. Her father is a wealthy man in Yanshan City and even dozens of nearby cities. If Brother Lu doesn't seize the opportunity quickly, he may lose it!" Song Zhenguo whispered in Lulu's ear.

Lu Sheng shook his head, and under the booing of everyone, he picked up a glass of wine from the stream and drank it down in one gulp.

After drinking, he lit the bottom of the cup to everyone.

His movements are chic, his appearance is not bad, and unlike other students, he has a strong and well-proportioned figure. Because of his high martial arts skills, he has both internal and external skills, and his eyes are even more radiant, which is impressive at first sight.

So even though he came from a small frontier town like Jiulian City, his family background is not as good as many rich people in the northern cities present here, but his temperament and demeanor are the most conspicuous one.

After a lot of booing from the crowd, and with Song Zhenguo's push, Lu Sheng was soon arranged to sit with Chen Yunxi.

Women in this world are mostly open-minded, as long as they are not too revealing like Duanmu Wan, no one will look strange.

Chen Yunxi whispered a few words to her friend's woman, sat for a while, and was soon encouraged by the crowd, and was 'driven' out of the gazebo together with Lu Sheng.

The two walked slowly on the nearby grass, and had some space to be alone.

In the early morning, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the winter jasmine flowers all over the mountains have dyed the entire mountain into a magnificent red cloud.

"They... always like to mess around so much." Chen Yunxi looked at Lu Sheng with big eyes without any concealment. It is not the first time they have been 'thrown out' in this way.

The two walked on the verdant and tender green grass, and crossed a small hill, blocking the sight of everyone from time to time.

Lu Sheng looked at Chen Yunxi who was beside her. She was wearing a pure white one-piece dress. The skirt only covered her thighs and exposed her knees. She also used a pair of long boots to cover her exposed calves. With a light waist, a bulging chest, slender legs, and long hair reaching to his waist, he could immediately think of such words as Qiuyue, Bailan, and Qingchun.

"They also have good intentions." Lu Sheng smiled. He is not a hypocrite, nor is he just sitting on his chest. There are beautiful girls who actively pursue him, and he himself is not married. He didn't resist, so he had the idea of letting nature take its course.

Especially the girl in front of her is obviously best in her long legs, but in the eyes of the people here, she has become the worst. Thinking of this, he felt a little regretful.
