After returning from Burial Sword Mountain, although Yunjing lives in one place, he occasionally learns about the big and small things in the world through various channels.
As winter begins, news comes one after another, but none of it is a good thing.
Let’s talk about the distance first. The Golden Wolf Dynasty in the north is still in the midst of war. The original rebellion was not suppressed in time, but even intensified. Now the war has spread to several states within the Golden Wolf Dynasty. The rebels
The main force snowballed to one million, and there were millions of followers. It was unstoppable for a while, and the troops were divided into one side. The Golden Wolf Dynasty, which once far surpassed Dali in national power, actually showed a situation of fragmentation, and even moved towards a change of dynasty!
Countless people have been displaced under the flames of war, and people are in panic. Now the situation in the Golden Wolf Dynasty can be described as a nationwide uproar.
Once again, the Dajiang Dynasty is not at peace either. The guy who can devour the cultivation of others to nourish himself has quickly become an unparalleled demon. He kills people everywhere and devours their cultivation. He is getting stronger day by day. Now he has grown to the point where his true artistic conception has been challenged.
The degree of his viciousness makes everyone nervous.
Then came the Sanluo Dynasty. News came out that an evil organization quietly rose up. It spread very quickly and did all kinds of evil things. The latest news is that the organization actually massacred a city. A person with a population of thirty
The city of tens of thousands of people was slaughtered overnight and turned into a ghost town. This incident shocked the Sangluo government and the public. The empress ordered a thorough investigation into the matter and vowed not to give up until this evil organization was eradicated. For this reason, Sangluo
Empress Luo did not hesitate to invite a sage from the Myth Realm to travel. There is no news about the result, but there are rumors that the situation seems to be bad...
The world has never been as peaceful as a pool of stagnant water, but major events that shocked the world have happened one after another in the three northern countries, which makes people feel solemn and depressed.
Not to mention the situation nearby, the territory of the Dali Dynasty was not peaceful either.
There are rumors in the world that in the past, the inheritance of the Burial Sword Mountain, a holy land of swordsmanship, was lost among the people, and was taken away by a man named Wang Dachui and disappeared. For a while, people in the world were making a fuss in search of the inheritance of the Burial Sword Mountain, and there were reports of fights and killings everywhere.
The rivers and lakes all of a sudden become tense. If there is news about the whereabouts of Wang Dachui, a group of people will swarm in. When there are more people, it will be like a powder keg. If you are not careful, it will be a chaotic fight. True and false news appear everywhere, which makes people
Can't tell true from false.
In addition to the inheritance of Burial Sword Mountain, another news that attracts more attention is that the Emperor's Sword has been born, and the sword holder can command the world and determine the fate of the people!
As the news spread, although no one knew whether it was true or not, it did not prevent interested people from making a fuss about it. Suddenly, people everywhere said that they had obtained the Emperor's Sword. It was overwhelming and chaotic.
Come on, the government is really worried about this matter.
Especially the latest news, in Liusha City in the west of Dali, in the late stage of Yi Zhen's artistic conception, he claimed to be destined to return, holding the sword of the emperor, and wanted to rule the world. He called himself the Holy Sun Emperor. When he climbed up and called, there were thousands of people who answered his call!
When he heard the news, Yun Jing was a little confused. The other party claimed to be holding the Emperor's Sword, which was naturally false. He had hidden the Emperor's Sword at the bottom of the mountain and the lake. The question was how dare he do it. Now in the Dali Kingdom
Is there something wrong with the people who make the people strong and openly rebel at this time? The key is that many people believe it and even travel thousands of miles to join him...
Too many fools and not enough liars?
At this news, the court was furious and ordered to send troops to encircle and suppress everyone. The third prince, Xia Mo, led the troops there!
The third prince Xia Mo sent troops to encircle and suppress the army? After learning this news, Yunjing felt a little amused. He still remembered what the third prince did in Burial Sword Mountain in order to obtain the Emperor's Sword. It was difficult not to make Yunjing guess that it was
It's not the third prince who is directing and acting.
What will happen next remains to be seen, but from Yun Jing's point of view, with the situation at the peak of the situation, the rebels will not be able to achieve anything. It will not take long to calm down. Even if there are people behind the scenes, they will not cause any trouble.
These things are too far away from Yunjing's current life and have little impact. All you need to do is pay a little attention.
The only thing that troubled Yunjing was that the weather was a bit surprising after winter this year.
In a small courtyard on the outskirts of Niujiao Town, Yunjing stood in the courtyard. The flowers and plants around him were all withered, and even the landscape trees in the courtyard had lost their last fallen leaves.
Under the sun, Yun Jing looked up at the sky, his brows furrowed.
"Winter has already started for more than half a month. At this time in previous years, the sky has already been covered with snow. But now the sun is still shining brightly and not a single snow has fallen. It goes against common sense. And depending on the sky, it will not be there for a while.
There’s no intention of snowing,” I muttered to myself as I looked at the blue sky and clouds.
Of course, a snowy winter is not a good thing. It is a disaster for countless people. But without snow, is it a good thing? If there is no snow to melt and nourish the earth in the spring next year, farming will also be affected. Without ice and snow, insect eggs will be frozen.
, the crops in the coming year will also be greatly affected!
Whether it snows or not will have a huge impact on countless people in the world.
Although Yunjing's family no longer relies on farming for a living, he has been influenced by his pragmatic master Li Qiu since he was a child, and it is difficult for him not to be concerned about these things.
Recalling the stars he watched last night, Yun Jing murmured subconsciously: "The Qi Ku star is brighter than in previous years, while the Min star is dimmer than in previous years. The rest of the stars are twinkling in confusion. Anyone who is proficient in astrology will probably be stunned by the current stars.
Well, although I often don’t believe in astrology, I have to admit that there is some truth in it. The Qi Bitter Star represents the suffering in the world in the astrology. It shines brightly, indicating that suffering is coming to the world, while the people’s star is dim.
, it means that people’s life will be difficult... , Tsk, one day I will actually think about these magical things."
He shook his head and looked away. Although Yunjing tried not to dwell on these things, there was inevitably a hint of haze in his heart.
At this time, Song Yan came here. Yun Jing looked up at him and asked, "How is the news that I asked you to inquire about?"
After hearing the news, Song Yan's face was a little tangled, and he replied: "Back to the young master, I have inquired carefully. After confirmation from many parties, in the past few days, even the northernmost Xianyang City in the north has not been visited.
A piece of snowflake, but at this time in previous years, not to mention the north, even our south has been frozen for thousands of miles, it is cold without snow, cold but not wet, young master, how can this happen?"
Regarding Song Yan's answer, Yunjing's heart became even more gloomy. The weather was abnormal, it was simply evil!
After pondering for a moment, Yun Jing said: "Who knows about God's affairs? Maybe the snow will be postponed this year."
Although postponement is not the only way to postpone it, as Yun Jing said, what can people do about God's matters?
After thinking for a while, Song Yan asked: "Master, do you have any plans for the weird weather today?"
Yun Jing understood what he meant. He frowned and said, "You really have to be prepared. You are always prepared. So, Xiao Song, next you start buying grain. Don't be afraid of spending money. Buy as much as you can. You can't buy it nearby.
Just go far away, it’s best to exchange all the money in your hand for food, but you have to remember, keep a low profile, don’t be public, and don’t affect the normal market.”
Having said that, Yunjing understood in his heart that even if he spent all the money he had on buying food, it would only be a drop in the ocean for the entire food industry. Of course, if it were placed in a place like a town and a county, he would
Such a gesture is naturally enough to stir up big waves, so Song Yan was asked to keep a low profile as much as possible.
Of course, it is unnecessary for Yunjing itself to need so much food, but as the saying goes, be prepared and don't panic when you have food in hand. Sometimes, food is more useful than any means.
"Okay, young master, I will handle this matter personally. I won't let you down if I keep it." Song Yan nodded solemnly. His young master was already gathering food, so next..., he didn't dare to go deep.
Just thinking about it makes my scalp numb.
Yun Jing smiled and said: "Don't have so many ideas, it's just a last-minute idea. By the way, you don't need me to teach you how to store the grain you buy and where to put it?"
"You don't have to worry about it, young master. If you can't handle this thing well, all these years of my life will be in vain," Song Yan said, patting his chest.
Yunjing naturally trusted him and nodded: "Well, I can rest assured that you are doing things. Go ahead and start purchasing food. You can also continue to pay attention to the weather changes in various places. The weather this year is really weird.
People are confused”
"Okay, young master, I'll get busy first," Song Yan replied. When he turned around, he patted his forehead and turned back and said, "By the way, young master, the escort agency in the capital sent you something as soon as possible. I'll do it on my behalf."
You accept what you have brought, this is it.”
As he spoke, Song Yan handed Yunjing a long wooden box.
Seeing the wooden box in his hand, Yunjing's heart moved. He reached out to take it and said, "Is this from the capital? I understand. You go and do your work."
Song Yan didn't think much about it, handed it to Yun Jing and left.
After he left, Yunjing opened the wooden box. As expected, there was an elegant long sword lying inside, like a piece of green bamboo. It was the same sword that was taken away by Yulan in Burial Sword Mountain not long ago, and now it is
This way it fell into his hands.
Looking at this sword, Yun Jing felt somewhat emotional in his heart. It would have been better if he didn't know what Yu Lan had gone through for this sword. It was precisely because he knew and witnessed it that he understood the importance of this sword.
"Why bother? Why bother? We just met each other once, is it worth it?"
After thinking to himself for a moment, Yunjing put the sword aside. Along with the sword came a letter with beautiful handwriting, obviously written by a woman.
Opening the envelope, as expected by Yun Jing, it was written by Miss Yulan herself.
The content is not much, just a few hundred or ten words.
Mr. Yun personally greets me, and the little girl Yulan presents her to you. We say goodbye that day. May you be well. I have been by your side. I saw that there was no sword near you. I specially found a handle, called Qingzhu, to give to Mr. Yun. I hope you will be happy.
Doubtful, the kindness of rescuing the siege cannot be repaid. This sword expresses my feelings. Please do not refuse. Winter is coming, and the fashion of the capital has a hint of warmth. If you are here, you will have a small amount of wine to prepare. It is hard to say goodbye. Magnolia pen.
Throughout this letter, Yulan never mentioned how she got the sword. In order to accept it with peace of mind, she even made an excuse to help her out. Yun Jing could imagine her writing this letter.
I was so confused and worried. I probably didn’t know how many times I rewrote it before I came up with this letter of about 100 words.
Putting the letter next to the green bamboo sword, Yun Jing pondered slightly.
Everything was delivered, and the other party found a reason why he couldn't refuse. It would be inappropriate to send it back, but a reply was necessary.
Just as Yunjing was thinking about how to reply to the letter, Bai Zhi came back with a vegetable basket and pushed the door open. A breeze blew by, blowing the letter away.
Yun Jing subconsciously wanted to grab the letter back, but Bai Zhi took the letter in his hand first and said with a smile: "Why are the officials so careless? The wind is strong in winter. It would be bad if the manuscript is lost...
…”
As she spoke, Bai Zhi glanced at the contents of the letter inadvertently, and was slightly startled. Then she calmly walked over and placed the letter on the stone table next to Yun Jing.
His expression was slightly unnatural, and a hint of embarrassment was fleeting. Yunjing felt an inexplicable feeling of being caught and raped, which he felt was ridiculous.
"Xiao Bai is back. Why are you back so early today?" Yun Jing pressed the letter with a green bamboo sword and raised his head.
Bai Zhi blinked, raised the vegetable basket in her hand and said: "There are not many customers in the store today, so I came back to cook for the officials first. I have to go to the store later."
After saying that, she walked towards the kitchen, as if she didn't see anything and nothing happened.
Scratching his head inexplicably, Yunjing looked at her back and asked, "Xiaobai, don't you have anything to say?"
Stopping and looking back, Bai Zhi tilted her head and said with a smile: "What should I say and ask? Why can't I understand the officer?"
"This..." Yun Jing was speechless for a moment.
In response to this, Bai Zhi smiled and said: "My lord, I have gone to cook."
Watching her figure disappear into the kitchen, Yunjing couldn't help scratching his head again. It was nothing, so why did it look like something was going on? Then he looked at the green bamboo sword and the letter on the table, it was so...
During dinner not long after, Bai Zhi never mentioned the letter or even asked about the sword. She just talked to Yunjing about some common and heart-warming words. Even if Yunjing wanted to mention her, she would change the subject.
The arms were spread apart, making Yun Jing feel uncomfortable all over.
Gu Xi
And then, that night, Bai Zhi took the initiative and Yun Jing couldn't resist it. She tried all kinds of tricks in turn. Yun Jing was in pain and happy at the same time. Her waist was always suffering, and her feelings were waiting here.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Yun Jing surrendered in the end. He hugged Bai Zhi who was covered in sweat and couldn't laugh or cry: "What a noob, isn't it?"
"What are you talking about, don't you like it?" Bai Zhi raised her head slightly and said with a flirtatious look, her eyes full of cunning, like a little fox who has succeeded in its conspiracy.
Seeing her like this, Yunjing's heart moved and he shouted that he was going to die.
So Yunjing, who had a numb scalp, took the initiative to confess: "That letter was sent by a woman I knew in Beijing. I helped her a little bit, and I sent her a sword to express my gratitude. This is the situation."
"The official is so strange today. What are you trying to explain?" Bai Zhi used a green-white finger to draw circles on his chest.
Taking a deep breath, Yunjing continued to answer the question and said: "Okay, her name is Yulan, the number one in Baihua Pavilion in the capital. When I went to the capital once, I was invited to be a guest. Yulan was staying with me at that time, and there was a family member who stirred up trouble.
I helped to relieve the siege, and I haven’t been there since.”
"Why are the officials telling me these things? You men are away from home. How dare you interfere with whatever you do and where you go? It's too late to support me. These concubines don't understand. I only know that serving the officials well is my concubine."
What should be done," Bai Zhi said quietly, leaning on Yun Jing's arms.
Without waiting for Yunjing to say anything, she continued: "Guanren, I am contented to be by your side in this life. I am even more lucky to have such a small corner of my heart. I don't dare to do it anymore."
There are too many extravagances to ask for, and the official is so good, it is not surprising that any woman will fall in love with him as my concubine. I think that girl Magnolia must be an unforgettable beauty. If the official is interested, he will welcome her into the house. The talented person in the lively house
Okay, these are my true words."
After pinching her cheek, Yunjing said at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: "Xiaobai, what are you talking about..."
Before Yun Jing could finish speaking, Bai Zhi smiled like a flower and said, "I don't need to say too much, I understand."
No, what do you already know?
Feeling extremely confused, Yunjing simply said: "Okay, it's getting late, let's go to sleep."
"Well, sir, do you want to continue?"
"..."
Early the next morning, Yun Jing took a rare sleep. Bai Zhi, who had a rosy complexion, helped him prepare the food and went to the store. When she left, the charming look in her eyes made Yun Jing's heart tremble.
Yunjing didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning. Yunjing always felt like he was drifting when he walked. There was something wrong with it. It had nothing to do with a person's physical strength. After all, there was only so much. It would be weird if he couldn't float after repeated squeezes.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Yunjing subconsciously touched his waist, thinking that you have suffered, but can this kind of thing be called suffering?
She woke up slowly, washed up, and ate warm food. Well, it was all a lot of tonic. After the meal, she felt warm all over her body. Yunjing felt a little more comfortable. It seemed that Bai Zhi still cared about Yunjing's health...
However, what Yunjing didn't expect was that he would live in dire straits for the next two days. Within a few days, his terrible physique actually had slight dark circles under his eyes, and his face turned a little pale!
Saying you don’t care is definitely an act of ambition!
In the end, it was Song Yan who saved Yunjing from the "sea of suffering". Ge Yin had to set off to congratulate Lin Yexing on his wedding in the county town. As a classmate and friend for many years, there was no reason to arrive on the wedding day. Song had to arrive in advance.
Yan came here specifically to remind him.
Yunjing was reminded of Song Yan's arrival as if he had seen his savior.
It was morning when Song Yan arrived, and Bai Zhi hadn't even gone to the store yet. The two of them were eating breakfast. Yun Jing looked at her and said sternly: "Xiao Bai, I have to go to the county to congratulate Brother Lin, my classmate for many years."
My friend, you have to arrive early so as not to be disrespectful.”
Bai Zhi, whose eyes were like water, heard this, covered her mouth and smiled softly: "It should be like this, the officials can just go away."
Seeing her expression like this, Yunjing was inexplicably relieved. He knew that Bai Zhi was planning to let him go. It was not easy these days. Do you know how he got here? It's hard to explain!
Fortunately, fortunately, my little white guy has no intention of squeezing himself to death, and he will be able to return to normal in the future.
Gently patting her little hand, Yun Jing said: "Xiao Bai is at home at ease, and he can come as soon as he wants to be with her husband. It will take three days at most."
The reason why I have to go for two or three days is not because of the distance to the county seat, but mainly because of the congratulations. With the relationship between the two parties, we can't just leave after meeting each other.
As for why he didn't take Bai Zhi with him, it certainly makes sense. It's a bit embarrassing to say that Bai Zhi's identity is actually a concubine. Lin Yexing is married to his wife. Of course, he can't bring his concubine with him on such an occasion. Otherwise, wouldn't that be disrespectful?
, in many families, as a concubine, she is not even qualified to serve at the table, let alone meet some important guests.
This kind of thing was tacitly understood, Bai Zhi didn't say it, and Yun Jing wouldn't mention such embarrassing things.
After the meal, Bai Zhi did not rush to the store, but helped Yunjing prepare for the trip in every detail, helping him organize clothes, gifts, etc.
I don’t plan to go alone to Yunjing this time. After all, as I am now a juren, going to congratulate Xi will naturally be more formal, but I don’t plan to make a high-profile event. If Song Yan wants to take him there, he will have to bring two entourages to protect him. It is customary.
Liu Dazhuang and Ding Wei, these people are almost the standard for Yunjing travel.
Taking advantage of this congratulations, I can also have a good gathering with some long-time friends.
Before leaving, Yunjing went home specifically to say hello to his family. This was his custom every time he traveled. If his parents were not traveling far away, he had to travel well and let his family know where he went so as not to worry or miss him.
Yunjing was ready to set off at noon that day, and Bai Zhi stopped all the way to the entrance of the town.
"Xiaobai, go back. It's not far from the county seat. Just wait for me to come back," Yun Jing said when they parted.
Bai Zhi nodded, straightened Yun Jing's clothes, and said with a smile on her face, "Let's go, officials. Don't worry at home. I'm going back first."
After she left, Yunjing said to Song Yan, who was driving the bullock cart: "Let's go."
So Song Yan drove an ox cart, guarded by Liu Dazhuang and Ding Wei on horseback, all the way towards the county town.
On the road, Yun Jing was not interested in reading, and the smile on his face also disappeared. He looked up at the sky, the sun was still shining brightly, and although the cold wind was blowing, there were no snowflakes floating.
This winter, what is unusual is that everyone feels that something is wrong. There is even news that the emperor in the capital is taking the lead in offering sacrifices to heaven. The effect is obviously ineffective.
There is nothing we can do about this kind of weather problem. We can only wait for God to be merciful.
A group of people were walking on the road to the county town. When they were halfway, Yun Jing noticed a figure in front of him and disappeared in the woods on the roadside, and he immediately raised his eyebrows.
Liu Dazhuang and the others also paid attention to the strange behavior of the figure. Among them, Ding Wei subconsciously put his hand on the handle of the knife at his waist and said solemnly: "Young Master, it seems that the intention behind the eyes is not evil. How to make a decision, please let me know."
"
As he spoke, Ding Wei's eyes were filled with murderous intent. They had followed Yunjing all these years and had almost no chance to show off, so why didn't they take the opportunity to come to his door?
Unexpectedly, Yunjing quickly shook his head and said: "No, just pretend you didn't notice it, and if the other party jumps out, we have to cooperate well, you know?"
As he spoke, the smile on Yunjing's face became even thicker, and he looked obviously very happy.
However, Ding Wei and the others don't understand. What does it mean to cooperate obediently? Master, is there something wrong with you or did we hear it wrong? Are you sure you don't want to tease the other person by cooperating with him?
After a while, on the quiet official road, a masked man suddenly stood in the middle of the road. The man held a long gun, pointed in the direction of Yunjing and the others and said sternly: "Over there, stop, what, this mountain
I opened this tree and I planted it. I want to pass here and leave money to buy the road. Hehe, by the way, that young man is so handsome. This king just happened to send a man to conquer the village. It’s you. If you don’t follow today
You have to go, you can’t escape from the palm of my hand, hehe.”
Liu Dazhuang and the others looked at each other, feeling that this person not only robbed people, but also wanted to rob people!
And she is clearly a woman, wearing a small silver leather armor, holding a spear, and a heroic figure. She has a beautiful figure but is not completely open at all, and her voice is definitely not that old.
Thinking of Yun Jing's previous explanation, Liu Dazhuang and the others didn't know what to do, so they subconsciously looked at Yun Jing.
Liu Dazhuang and the others were dumbfounded by Yunjing's next performance.
I saw Yunjing's face full of fear and uneasiness, as if he was frightened by the sudden change. He waved his hands and said in horror: "Your Majesty, spare your life, please let us go. I will give you everything you ask for. Please show your respect."
Liu Dazhuang and the others were immediately confused. Is this still their young master?
The masked woman in Jie Dao only had Yun Jing in her eyes. Her beautiful eyes were shining brightly. She looked at Yun Jing and curled her eyelashes and said, "Hehe, I can't help you, little man. Today, I've got you. That's all."
Just obey me obediently, suck it up, you are so greedy, you are such a strong-willed lord, I will decide it."
"No, Your Majesty, I have already been engaged, and my unmarried wife is still waiting for me to marry her. What will you do if you take her away from me?" Yun Jing continued to say in horror.
When he said this, the Daoist woman seemed to be even more excited. She was obviously licking her lips and said: "Wouldn't that be more exciting? If you have an engagement, you should have said it early. This is what I love. Haha, you will obey me."
Well, are you going to follow me obediently, or should I clean you up and then follow me obediently?"
"No, no, no, I can't go with you. My wife is very powerful. If she comes to kill your village in search of me, it will bring disaster to you. No, no, no, no, and I am also very powerful, so I won't just give in."
, Yunjing continued to shake his head.
The Jie Dao woman chuckled and said, "Hey, you young man, don't force me to do anything. No one can save you today!"
As he spoke, he walked toward Yunjing step by step with a sense of pressure.
Liu Dazhuang and the others continued to look at each other in silence. What was going on? His young master was too abnormal, and something was wrong with the Taoist woman. It was as if she was having fun, and she didn't think that she and the others existed.
How can it be different? The young couple are having fun, of course they are having fun.
Yunjing also didn't expect that Su Xiaoye, who had been running somewhere during this period, would appear here, and after seeing him, he would play a game of robbery.
At this time, Yunjing faced Su Xiaoye who was approaching with a sense of oppression. He hurriedly picked up his sword and said in horror: "Don't come over, I won't be polite if you come over again."
