Nanzhou!

Chaoyang County!

The late autumn wind raged in Nanzhou.

Above the official road, there are few people.

Not far away, dust was flying, and a few tall horses galloped in the distance and gradually stopped.

In the distance, the city head of Chaoyang County can be vaguely seen.

"arrive!"

On the horse's back, Li Beifeng sighed lightly, and a little tired look appeared on his face.

Finally arrived!

The journey was full of dust, and finally returned from Zhongzhou Capital to Chaoyang County, Nanzhou.

He turned his head and looked not far away.

Not far away, there are two horses in parallel.

On the horse's back, two figures were lonely and cold.

Zhao Ying, who was dressed like snow in white, showed a pair of beautiful eyes under the gauze hat, staring calmly at the distance.

On the other side, there was a girl in a goose yellow dress with bright eyes and white teeth, and her skin was as soft as fat, but it seemed to add a bit of competent look.

The three of them walked side by side, and finally returned here when they rushed to the night.

Zhao Yingting looked at Chaoyang County in the distance, then rode a horse and continued on his way.

Zhou Qiuning stopped in place, staring at Chaoyang County City not far away, and for some reason he remembered something, he briefly fell into deep thought.

Li Beifeng glanced at her, but he stopped talking, but in the end he had nothing and sighed lightly.

"Let's go!"

The group of three people slowed down and slowly rode their horses to approach Chaoyang County City.

Along the way, there are few people, and occasionally you can see some randomly thrown clothes on the side of the road.

Zhao Ying in front of him glanced at these things on the roadside and remained silent, but the cold eyes seemed to be a little colder.

After entering Nanzhou from Zhongzhou along the way, several people felt the chaos in Nanzhou along the way.

The army of Zhaonan Prince rushed into Nanzhou. Countless people in Nanzhou were frightened and many people moved out of the north. As Nanzhou fell into war, many places in Nanzhou were already living in poverty.

The livelihood of the entire Nanzhou area was severely damaged, and the situation was worse than everyone imagined.

If the war continued, even without Prince Zhaonan, Dazhao would not be able to hold on for long.

The three of them went south and they had encountered many bandits and bandits who blocked the road and robbed the road. Many of them were officials and forced to rebel, and were forced to survive by war and forced to become bandits.

At present, nearly half of Nanzhou's territory is covered by war, and only Chaoyang County remains, but the war has not yet been affected by war. But according to the current situation, everything in the future is hard to say.

Perhaps, this is why the county town is so desolate now.

The autumn wind was bleak, and Chaoyang County City ahead was revealed in the sight of several people.

Outside the city, there were many soldiers guarding the city gates and strictly guarding the city outside.

When the three of them approached, soldiers immediately surrounded him and were ready to fight.

Zhao Ying, in front of him, took out a token and threw it to the soldiers in the head. The soldiers in the head calmed down and their faces changed drastically. They waved their hands and shouted at the soldiers beside them, and bowed respectfully, "It turns out it's from the Imperial Heaven Sect."

Sir, please come to the city!"

Then, under the respectful gaze of the soldiers in the city gate, the three of them successfully entered the city.

"Tsk, don't say it, your Imperial Heavenly Secret's reputation is a bit too great!"

Zhou Qiuning saw this scene and spoke.

Zhao Ying was focused and ignored her and entered the city.

When the three of them stepped into the city again, they were all a little dazed.

In front of me was the familiar city street, and nothing seemed to change.

Near the street, there are familiar street shops, as well as hawkers and pedestrians, as well as the familiar clothes styles of pedestrians.

However, in just one year, there was no big change. However, the three of them all felt the illusion that things were changing.

"First find a place to have some rest, and then make plans."

Li Beifeng thought and spoke.

However, Zhao Ying rejected Li Beifeng's proposal and said lightly: "I'll go to the imperial examination department!"

After saying that, she rode away.

"And you?"

Li Beifeng turned his head and looked at Zhou Qiuning.

"Since she ignores you, of course I ignore you!"

On the horse's back, the girl smiled, her lips were red and her teeth were white. She glanced at Li Beifeng with a slight pride and turned around and left gracefully.

Li Beifeng was left standing there, sighed lightly, and let them go.

When returning here, Li Beifeng felt something that was indescribable.

Unlike their singularity, in order to prevent trouble, Li Beifeng got off his horse after entering the city, led the horse through the familiar streets, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar scenery around him, and was filled with emotion.

A year ago, when I left here and planned to go to Sunset City, Li Beifeng didn't expect to go there for so long.

But after arriving at Sunset City, I didn't expect to come back so early.

While walking on the street, Li Beifeng suddenly came to a familiar place, stopped and looked up.

Not far ahead, there is an inn!

"Jianghu Inn!"

The ink-black door plaque and the few big characters that are very distinctive in the world.

So familiar!

Li Beifeng raised his mouth slightly, and a strange smile appeared on his face, and then he stepped into the inn.

In the inn, there is a quiet area.

The waiter from the inn stood at the stairs beside him squinted his eyes and yawned.

Since the war in Nanzhou has fallen into chaos, Chaoyang County has also been greatly affected. There are fewer merchants coming and going, and the business of staying in a hotel has also been much worse.

"I don't know when this war will end!"

The waiter yawned, and at this moment, a dusty figure walked in outside the door.

Guests are coming?

The waiter was shocked and hurried forward: "Customer, are you going to play the lead or stay..."

The waiter approached with a diligent look on his face, but when he saw clearly the figure in front of him, the words that had originally come to his mouth stopped again.

The next second, his face was full of surprise: "Auntie, aunt? You, are you back?"

In the inn, Li Beifeng looked at the familiar waiter in front of him and chuckled: "Yes, I'm back!"

The waiter suddenly opened his eyes wide excitedly and hurriedly shouted to the back: "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper's?!"

"What's the noise?"

In the backyard, the inn shopkeeper lifted the back curtain and walked in with annoyance.

"Son-in-law, is your son-in-law back?"

The shopkeeper listened and looked up at the store at the same time. Then he was stunned and a look of joy came up instantly: "Son-in-law? Are you really back?"

"yes!"

Li Beifeng looked at the familiar shopkeeper in front of him. He hadn't seen him for a year and seemed to have gained a lot of weight.

Jianghu Inn, Mr. Shen’s property in Chaoyang County. More than a year ago, when Li Beifeng first arrived in Chaoyang County, he lived here for a long time. It was also here that he and Suyi...

"Oh, I'm looking forward to the stars and the moon, you're finally back!"

The shopkeeper stepped forward excitedly, unable to hide his joy: "Sir Li, when did you come back? Don't say hello to us in advance, so we can pick you up!"

The shopkeeper was excited and looked behind Li Beifeng: "Where is the master? Where is the lady? Are they back too?"

"No!"

Li Beifeng shook his head gently: "This time I will come back alone, come here to do something, and come and see you by the way."

"I see!"

When the shopkeeper and the waiter didn't come back, the shopkeeper and the waiter looked a little disappointed, but they quickly adjusted their emotions: "Son-in-law, are you okay with the master and the ladies?"

Li Beifeng nodded: "Everything is pretty good."
