"Your honor, what about Qingfeng Citadel …" He tried to ask.
Li Mu patted his forehead and seemed to think of something, saying, "Oh, I forgot to say that Ma Junwu's injury has healed. You let him select 50 guards to clean up the battlefield at Hancha Kou. It's a little bloody there. Don't frighten the passing civilians and merchants."
Hancha Kou?
Feng Yuanxing and little attendant Qing Feng were stunned at the same time.
Immediately, a thought flashed in their minds.
Could it be …
"Your honor, last night at Hancha Kou, could it be …" Feng Yuanxing tried with a trembling voice.
At this time, the kitchen had begun to serve the dishes.
The fragrant aroma made Li Mu's saliva drip down.
After the battle last night, he consumed a lot of blood and qi and was hungry. Otherwise, he would not rush out of the practice room after watching the Netherworld Dao-using Method. At the moment, he had no time to talk nonsense with Feng Yuanxing and rushed to the table, saying, "You'll know when you get there …"
However, he was not the first one to rush to the table.
Ming Yue, the adorable little adorkable, had already appeared at the table and gorged herself.
"Haven't you already eaten?" Li Mu grabbed a roasted leg of lamb and said angrily, "How dare you grab my meat?"
"What's yours or mine? Whoever eats it first owns it." Little Ming Yue picked up a plate of stir-fried kidney in front of her, raised her head, opened her mouth, and directly poured it into her mouth like pouring garbage. Then she raised her hand to pick up two pork knuckles and whimpered, "Qing Feng mistreated me and let me only eat ten bowls of meat porridge for breakfast. How can I be full?"
"Ten bowls of meat porridge is not enough?"
Li Mu was speechless.
"Even if I raise a Tibetan mastiff, it can't eat as much as you."
"Is your stomach a bottomless pit?"
He didn't want to talk more nonsense with this adorkable girl, and immediately began to fight for food.
The two people around the table, eyeing each other and crazily fighting for food.
Feng Yuanxing was also speechless.
This county magistrate of mine is sometimes majestic, sometimes crazy like a child, sometimes powerful like a God of War, and sometimes funny like an idiot … This, this is really … really unrestrained and has the demeanor of a famous scholar. '
Other than 'unrestrained', he could not think of any other words to describe his master.
Qing Feng, the little attendant, did not seem to be surprised at all. He rubbed his temples and said to himself, "Alas, I'm so tired. It seems that I need more food …"
He turned to the kitchen and ordered the chefs to prepare three times the amount of meat.
When the chefs heard that, they all sighed in their hearts.
Since they applied to be cooks in the county government, although their treatment had increased four or five times, their workload had also increased greatly. Cooking for the county magistrate was more tiring than serving the many guests coming and going in the restaurant.
He was alone with two little attendants. How could they eat so much?
He really wondered if the county magistrate had secretly raised a group of gluttonous beasts in the county government.
…
…
The sun rose.
The sunlight wasn't that blazing.
In the streets of Taibai County, a strange atmosphere was surging.
Many local residents of the county had already received the official notice from the county government. All of them had closed their doors. Some shops and restaurants had also temporarily closed their doors.
If such a thing happened a few days ago, it would definitely arouse the anger of the Jianghu heroes who gathered here.
Those closed shops might have already been smashed by the Jianghu heroes, and the shopkeepers would inevitably be beaten violently.
However, after experiencing the merciless killing of the mysterious First Brother Duan Shuiliu who appeared out of nowhere yesterday, everything had changed dramatically.
The insufferably arrogant Jianghu heroes were greatly frightened.
It was said that some Jianghu people who had committed evil deeds in the city were so scared that they fled in the night. Most of the people who stayed had restrained their sharpness and were much more honest. They didn't dare to act like tyrants in the city anymore.
Under the notice of the government, the shops were closed and the doors were closed.
The Jianghu people swayed in groups of three or five and talked noisily. They all rushed to the site of the Shennong Faction. The fight between the two factions was about to begin. For those Jianghu people who wanted to join in the fun, it was a big event that could not be missed.
…
An hour before the fight began.
At the gate of Taibai County, a white-haired young man carrying an ancient sword appeared.
His appearance was out of this world, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He was extremely handsome, and with a head of snow-white hair, he had a strange, celestial-like temperament. Step by step, he walked into the county town, and the guards stationed at the city gate didn't stop him as if they didn't see him at all.
"It's the breath of the demon beast, and it's a big demon … How could this be?"
The white-haired young man with an ancient sword looked shocked and looked up at the Taibai County government which was higher than the mountain city.
In the depth of his eyes, there was a trace of strange silver lightning, and it was more like there was a nebula rising and falling.
And the ancient sword behind him also vibrated at a high speed with a frequency that others couldn't detect.
Soon, all these changes disappeared.
The white-haired young man restrained the sharpness in his eyes and walked between the streets and alleys at a moderate speed, as if he was sightseeing. But the strange thing was that along the way, those Jianghu heroes didn't find him even if they passed by this white-haired young man with an ancient sword.
This person seemed to be a wisp of air and didn't exist in this world.
…
Soon after, at the gate of Taibai County, there was a sound of horse hooves.
It was a small caravan rushing over from afar.
"At this critical moment, how could there be a caravan coming?" The guards at the gate were extremely surprised.
Over the past few days, with the gathering of all kinds of monsters in the city, the atmosphere had become foul. The merchants who came and went had been robbed several times. Their safety outside the city could not be guaranteed, so they had basically disappeared.
Especially a small caravan with only one carriage and five or six people in front of them, it was impossible to appear again.
"Stop …"
The carriage stopped at the gate of the county.
"Young Master, here we are." The coachman pulled the reins and looked back at the carriage.
This coachman was a strong man, about 30 years old, with a firm face, and a coarse robe couldn't hide his fierce momentum. Compared with those Jianghu people who claimed to be masters in Taibai County, his temperament was more fierce, like a sharp long knife, and his momentum was overwhelming.
It was hard to imagine that such a person was willing to drive a carriage for others.
And on both sides of the carriage, there were four knights.
The two knights on the left side, one was a thin old man in cyan clothes and a square scarf, and the other was a fourteen or fifteen years old little boy. They were all dressed like scholars, and they didn't seem to be Jianghu masters.
The two knights on the right side, both strong and sturdy, carried two crossed swords on their back, and they were all warriors who used double swords.
"Is this Taibai County?" A childish voice came from the carriage.
The carriage door opened a gap.
A head with messy hair squeezed out from the gap.
It was a little boy who looked to be less than ten years old. His face was fair and clear, and his eyes were lively. He had a naughty demeanor unique to little guys of his age. His hair was black but messy, and there was a hairband on his forehead. Two fingers above his eyebrows, there was a beautiful oval jade. One look and one could tell that it was very valuable.
The little boy looked at the scenery outside curiously, and wanted to squeeze out of the door directly.
But a palm stretched out from behind and pulled him back.
That was the palm of a young woman.
A slender hand that was whiter and smoother than the white jade on the little boy's forehead.
No amount of words could describe the beauty of this hand, and no amount of rhetoric could describe the purity of this hand. It was as if it was carved out of the most beautiful jade in the world and had a magical brilliance. Looking at this hand, one could not help but want to know the owner of this hand.
"Hey, sister …" The little boy was pulled back bitterly.
Then the carriage door was closed.
A crisp and sweet voice, like the collision of jade beads, came through the door, "Mr. Wang, go to the city and find an inn to stay. The scenery here is good, and you can stay for a few more days."
"Yes, sir." The thin old man in cyan clothes and a square scarf on the left nodded.
After a simple interrogation by the county guards, this group of people smoothly entered the city.
All the way until the carriage disappeared into the depths of the streets of the city, all the soldiers were still staring blankly. In everyone's mind, the beautiful and slender hand that seemed to have some kind of magical power still appeared. They were all imagining in their minds what kind of peerless beauty the owner of that hand must have been.
Suddenly, a barking dog woke up these soldiers who seemed to be in a hypnotic state.
The soldiers looked in the direction of the sound.
At some point, an old beggar with a yellow-and-white dog had arrived in front of the city gate.
This old beggar was in his fifties, with a rosacea nose, a wide mouth, and a pair of thick black eyebrows, which was particularly eye-catching.
He was tall and burly, wearing a robe that was washed clean, and a pair of straw sandals on his feet. He held a begging bowl in his left hand, a yellow wine gourd in his right hand, and a sack on his shoulder. He looked ruddy, and compared with ordinary beggars, he looked much better.
A fat yellow-and-white dog was at his feet, wagging its tail with a silly look on its face.
"Officers, this old beggar wants to go to the city to ask for some soup to fill my stomach. Please do me a favor." He smelled of alcohol and said with a smile.
A guard looked up and down a few times, nodded, and motioned the old beggar to hurry in and not block the way.
"Thank you, thank you officers." The old beggar entered the city with the yellow and white big fat dog.
"Wait a minute." The Dutou Official suddenly said.
The old beggar looked back.
The Dutou Official said, "It's not very safe in the city recently. You should be more observant. Don't go to those Jianghu people to beg, so as not to cause trouble. You are old, don't get your legs broken here."
