Wasteland City.
Wasteland City.
The sky was blue, the wilderness was vast, and the boundless blue sea was blowing. The grass that was half a man's height was undulating like waves.
Although they had seen grasslands larger than this in the Xuantian Continent, Fire Phoenix and the others still pretended that this was the first time they had seen a grassland. They looked outside and exclaimed from time to time. After exiting the grassland for a while, they saw the pasture. Several large white tents were placed on the grassland, forming another part of the scenery.
The carriage stopped. Ming Xi immediately saw Tang Deren standing outside the pasture. There were two other people standing next to him. One of them was Teng Ye. If he guessed correctly, the other person was also the one who had appeared in the secret room earlier.
"Young Master Ji, welcome." Tang Deren smiled and bowed. Since they had confirmed that the other person was Fang Yanjun, they naturally couldn't be disrespectful.
Ming Xi still maintained a reserved and noble appearance. He modestly and politely bowed back, "Lord Tang is too polite."
"These two are also my guests. They are Lord Teng, the guard of Wasteland City. This is Lu Yuan." Tang Deren introduced the two people next to him to Ming Xi.
"I've heard a lot about you." Ming Xi's gaze swept past Teng Ye and then looked at Lu Yuan.
Teng Ye sized up Ming Xi with a deep gaze. The youth in front of him looked very unfamiliar, but there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity about him.
"Young Master Ji, please come inside." Tang Deren invited Ming Xi and the others into the yurt.
After exchanging greetings, they sat down on the two sides. Teng Ye sat next to Ming Xi. He turned his head and said to Ming Xi, "I heard that Young Master Ji is from Jiangnan?"
"Yes." Ming Xi nodded indifferently, "Judging from Lord Teng's accent, you don't seem to be a native of Wasteland City."
"I am also from the south. Which part of Jiangnan does Young Master Ji come from?" Teng Ye asked with a smile.
Ming Xi smiled faintly, "A small place. I'm afraid none of you have heard of it."
"It is fate that brought us together. No matter where you come from, from now on, Young Master Ji is a friend of this Tang. If you need anything in the Wasteland City, just tell this Tang." Tang Deren said with a big smile.
"Master Tang is truly a straightforward person." Ming Xi said with a smile.
Teng Ye took a sip of tea and said, "Yesterday in front of the restaurant, Young Master Ji really opened people's eyes. You easily made the swindler unable to refute you. You may not know, but the swindler you met outside the restaurant yesterday has been swindling people in the Wasteland City for a long time. He specializes in swindling foreign passers-by. The government has wanted to bring him to justice for a long time, but they have no evidence. Yesterday, they finally caught him."
"I see." Ming Xi laughed, "That swindler is quite smart, using something that others can't recognize to swindle and swindle. He can easily deceive others."
"But he didn't fool you." Hot smoke rose from the teacup. Teng Ye gazed at Ming Xi through the light smoke. "Very few people know that the Fang family made a mark on that batch of colored vases. Moreover, it was a character that doesn't look like the surname Fang at all."
Ming Xi looked at Teng Ye with a faint smile. "Lord Teng knows quite a bit."
Teng Ye smiled, "I've seen him in the palace before, so I know a little bit about him."
"You already know quite a bit." Ming Xi took a sip of tea and then put it down. The tea of the prairie was really bad to drink. They actually added sugar and peanuts to the tea.
"How does Young Master Ji know?" Teng Ye asked with a smile.
Fire Phoenix sneered from the side. "How could our Young Master not know about the Fang family's matters?"
"Cough cough!" Ming Xi lightly coughed and looked at Fire Phoenix with a stern gaze.
Fire Phoenix immediately lowered her head and went silent, looking as if she had said something wrong.
Teng Ye thoughtfully looked at Ming Xi. "Young Master Ji … … came from Qinghe City?"
"How does Lord Teng know?" Ming Xi asked in astonishment.
"Ji and Fang are from the same family." Teng Ye said with certainty.
Ming Xi smiled but didn't say anything, tacitly agreeing with Teng Ye's guess.
Seeing Ming Xi's reaction, Tang Deren and Lu Yuan's faces flashed with joy. It seemed like it really was Fang Yanjun.
"How long does Young Master Ji plan on staying in Wasteland City?" Teng Ye asked.
"Just a few days." Ming Xi lightly said, "This place is much more flourishing than I imagined."
Teng Ye said, "If Young Master Ji stays for a few more days, you will discover that this place is even more unexpected."
"Is that so?" Ming Xi smiled.
Tang Deren chuckled and said, "Let's not talk, why don't we go out for a walk?"
"Go ride horses? Sure. "Shang'Er was already bored to death. When she heard that she could go out, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Then let's go." Ming Xi smiled.
Teng Ye silently looked at Ming Xi. They came to the ranch to choose a horse. Shang'Er had already led her white horse and started running outside.
"Young Master Ji, you choose first." Teng Ye said to Ming Xi.
"I'm not good at riding horses." Ming Xi lightly shook his head. "I'll take that one. It's just to accompany my cousin."
Fang Yanjun's body had been weak since he was a child and had always been protected very little. He was weak in riding and archery. Although there was no news, Teng Ye definitely knew.
"This horse is too short. Will Young Master Ji be able to enjoy it?" Lu Yuan looked at the horse that Ming Xi chose. Wasn't this a pony? "Look at how well that little girl is riding."
"Indeed, my cousin's riding skills are outstanding." Ming Xi lightly said, "I'm not good at it."
Lu Yuan looked at Teng Ye. "Then Young Master Ji can do as you please."
Ming Xi calmly mounted the dwarf stallion and let Fire Phoenix pick a horse to accompany Shang'er while he and Xu Jinbei slowly walked behind them.
Seeing Fire Phoenix's vigorous figure, Teng Ye said, "Young Master Ji's attendants are not simple. That little brother is young, but his riding skills are very exquisite."
"My family hired a master to teach me in the past, but my talent is average. I didn't learn it, but the attendants by my side all learned it well." Ming Xi sat on the pony's back as he watched Shang'Er and Fire Phoenix run further and further away.
"It's just that you're not good at riding. Young Master Ji's talent in other areas is not average." Teng Ye said.
Ming Xi frowned and said to Xu Jinbei, "Go stop them. If we go any further, we'll reach Dark North Kingdom territory."
"How does Young Master Ji know that it's Dark North Kingdom territory?" Teng Ye was a little shocked. "Could it be that you've been here before?"
"Bright Moon Lake is over there. If we go any further, we'll reach the border of Dark North Kingdom. You'll know this after you understand it. There's no need to come here personally." Ming Xi pointed at a lake not far away.
"Actually, there's no harm in running there." Teng Ye said. In his heart, he already completely believed that this person was Fang Yanjun. However, he didn't know what this Fang Yanjun was planning to do.
Ming Xi lightly said, "The Jin Nation and Dark North Kingdom don't have any relations, right?"
If he remembered correctly, the Emperor of Dark North Kingdom, Beitang Yu, should be itching to destroy the Jin Nation.
