Fate is immortal

After leaving the mountain, it was all downhill along the Mengxi River. A Yuan walked very happily, singing loudly, like a bird out of the cage, sweeping away the parting feelings.I just feel that the sky is so blue, the trees are so green, and the river is so narrow.

The small river several feet wide can now be crossed in a single jump. A Yuan jumped up and down excitedly on both sides of the river, and finally slipped and fell into the water, becoming a drowned chicken.Fortunately, it was midsummer, and he was drenched but refreshed. A Yuan yelled and ran with all his might, reaching Yunji Town in two hours.

A Yuan had already planned in his heart, since he promised his sister and master to return home before the end of the year, he had to keep his word, so that he could go out again in the future.Half a year is neither short nor long, and it is not even a thought to travel around China. It is more realistic to set the goal within one country.Luoyun City is naturally the first choice. Firstly, there will be Qinger, a rich lady, to take care of her, and she will have no worries about food and clothing. Secondly, she can meet the old man earlier, let him know what a genius is, and teach him all the immortal arts in one go.

A Yuan only knew that Luoyun City was the capital of Yunchu Kingdom in the Eastern Kingdom, and it was probably in the northeast direction, but he didn't know exactly how to get there.When I arrived at the post house in Yunji Town and asked about it, the passing businessmen shook their heads repeatedly, as if it was very difficult to leave.

After asking around, there are roughly two routes. One is to go straight to the northeast and go straight through Yunguo. Kou clusters of the vast cloud ridge.For a boy like A Yuan who has never traveled far at first glance, people suggest that he take the second road—go south along the river to Jiangdu in Leiguo, where there is an official road leading to Dongguo.After entering the Eastern Kingdom, rent a carriage and arrive at Luoyun City in a few months.Although the road made a big detour, the road was smooth, and as long as you had money, you could get food and accommodation on the road.

Although A Yuan knew little about the geography of China, he also knew that the second road was a big circle.A Yuan thinks that he is different from ordinary people, walking over mountains and ridges is like walking on flat ground, eating and sleeping in the open is normal, why spend more money to detour?He is not afraid of getting lost, anyway, he just came out to see the great world, and he didn't go to see it.

After making up his mind, A Yuan thanked him and left the post house, and started wandering around the market in Yunji Town.One is to listen to people's advice to prepare more dry food reserves, and two is that there are still many places in Yunji Town that I haven't visited.People in Jianghu always need their own registration numbers, and they are usually "people from so-and-so, somewhere". If he, a "people from Luoguo in Xining", doesn't even know about Yunji Town in his hometown, wouldn't it be a joke?

Now that his identity has been replaced by a young hero who has just entered the rivers and lakes, this hometown town is suddenly full of freshness.

Apart from the market in the north of the town, the places that A Yuan is most familiar with in Yunji Town are post houses and government offices.

The post house is a place for travelers to stay and rest. Of course, if you really want to stay, you must have a status and position. Generally, traffickers and pawns just find a place to rest in the courtyard of the post house.Whenever A Yuan came to Yunji Town, he would go to the posthouse to chat with a talkative traveler for a while, and listen to anecdotes and fairy tales from various places.

In A Yuan's view, the government office is a dragon's pool and a tiger's lair guarded by officials.Heroes who catch Jiangyang thieves and youngsters will be sent there, and they will be imprisoned from then on, so that they will never stand up again.

Every time A Yuan came to Yunji Town, he would squat at the gate of the government office for a while, hoping to see the legendary hero twisting his bearded face to receive the reward, but unfortunately he never got his wish.However, the red-painted gate and the mighty and well-dressed officials still gave him enough room for imagination, making him feel that the trip was worthwhile every time.

In fact, the interests of many parties are involved in Yunji Town, and there are countless undercurrents.The dozen or so small officials in the official office were all in charge of trivial matters, but they just had the right to put on a show—of course, this was beyond what A Yuan could know.

The laws and regulations of Yunji Town are loose, but there are many restrictions. Therefore, it is free and peaceful. In addition, it is located at the junction, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians coming and going. It is simply a paradise for businessmen.The official road in the town is also the main street, which is completely a bustling commercial street, with many shops and pedestrians standing shoulder to shoulder, and it is also a place that A Yuan can't get enough of.

A Yuan strolled among the crowds of shops, watching the colorful flags of the restaurants fluttering in the wind in a good mood, all kinds of shops are next to each other, old and young merchants are trying their best to attract customers, and the goods they sell are also from all over the world.

There is a saying that things gather like like people and people are divided into groups. Merchants from all over the world divided into gangs and gangs according to their respective countries and regions, and divided the small streets of Yunji Town into several blocks, just like a microcosm of the world.

Fengguo has undulating mountains, rich in minerals and precious stones, and its forging technology is the best in the world.Feng Guofeng is tough and aggressive, businessmen are shrewd and cunning, cheating and kidnapping are hard to guard against, and their reputation is the worst.But those gleaming swords, armors, and radiant jewelry are really good things.

Leiguo is located in Tiannan, with lush vegetation, rich in various medicinal materials, spices, logs, animal skins and other natural materials.The laws of Lei Country are strict, and the merchants are all law-abiding and honest, neither aggressive nor negligent, and have the best reputation.

But the most special thing is the merchants of the Eastern Kingdom, who speak different dialects and wear different costumes, whether they are elegant or vulgar, or honest or treacherous.There are only unexpected things for food, clothing, use, and play, and there is no Dongguo who does not sell them.

It's a pity that no matter what kind of businessmen and treasures, it's useless to meet A Yuan.A Yuan is curious about everything, and when he sees something novel and beautiful, he will go up to ask and sigh.He looked east and west all the way, asked this and that, and felt that his knowledge had greatly increased and his interest was full.It's just pity that countless merchants have wasted a long time talking in vain, only to realize that this country boy is purely curious, and has no intention of buying at all, all of them are angry and roll their eyes.

Seeing noon, A Yuan resisted the urge to go to a restaurant to have a big meal, hid in the corner of the street, and ate dry food with the scent of vegetables blowing in the wind.However, the dry food was soaked in water when it fell into the water, which was really unpalatable.A Yuan was sad, so he stayed away from those colorful wine shops in the afternoon, and only walked into the narrow alleys.

There are small shops in these alleys, selling snacks, needlework and other groceries. They are the favorites of Mengmeng and Xiaoxiao on weekdays, but A Yuan has not been there often, so it is not fun to shop at this time.

In fact, A Yuan wandered around for another purpose, that is, hoping to run into those rascals last time.After all, he was young and energetic, last time he came to sell fish for no reason, he was provoked and fought for no reason, and Xiao Shitou was seriously injured, how could he not hold grudges in his heart.Now that he has achieved great feats, if he sees those rascals committing mischief again and harming the common people, he must be taught a lesson and sent to the government.Not only can he vent evil spirits, but he can also eliminate harm for the people. Maybe the title of "Yuan Shaoxia" will be called from then on.

However, the sky failed to fulfill people's wishes. Seeing that the sun was westward, I didn't see a single villain doing evil.A Yuan was thinking about whether he was still eating dry food for dinner, when he heard someone shouting loudly: "The new book "The Legend of the Ancient and Modern Knights" is on the shelves. The quantity is limited, if you want to buy it, hurry up!"

As soon as A Yuan looked up, he arrived at the bookstore. The boss stood at the door and greeted him with a smile on his face: "This young man is both civil and military. Come in and read a book? There are many new books that have just hit the shelves."

A young man's call made A Yuan very comfortable, and secretly praised the boss for his vision.People praise you for being both civil and military, how can you not go in and have a look?

When I entered the store, I looked up and saw a two-character banner on a bookshelf facing me - "Taoism".A Yuan was taken aback, and hurried forward to take a look, and saw that they were all books named "health preservation" and "fitness", and then suddenly realized.It's nothing more than ordinary people using the name of Taoism to make up some secret skills, claiming to be able to strengthen the body, and defrauding the good people in the countryside for a small amount of money.

When he was a child, Grandpa Wan taught him a set of Taixi Kungfu. He practiced it for more than a year, but there was no effect at all. Compared with the "Invincible Universe Thunderbolt Invincible Kung Fu" that has undergone earth-shaking changes in just a few months, it is really a heaven and an underground. up.

The owner of the bookstore saw that A Yuan seemed to be interested, so he hurriedly came over and said, "Is this young man still practicing Taoism? That's great! My little old man, I have been practicing for decades. Look, there are more than 50 people now. My waist is not sore and my legs don't hurt, my body is very good. Young Xia has been practicing since this age, the effect must be better..."

A Yuan smiled faintly, like a god looking down on all living beings from the nine heavens, with a contemptuous smile on his mouth, he casually opened the most common and unremarkable book called "Healthy Fitness and Puzzle Skills" booklet……

After only turning two pages, Ah Yuan's smile froze immediately, his eyes widened, he turned faster and faster, and his face became more and more blue.When the thin booklet was finished, the young hero with both civil and military skills was already dumbfounded, standing there as if he had lost his soul.

The owner of the bookstore was surprised, and was about to go up to talk to him, only to see the young man suddenly raised his head, like a dragon chant, and roared straight into the sky——

"I—fuck—"

Pedestrians on the road outside looked sideways and glared angrily, wondering how such filthy words could be spread in such an elegant place like a bookstore.And, it's so loud...

…………

As the night fell and the lights came on, the noisy Yunji Town fell silent during the day, and the traffickers and pawns who had worked hard all day dispersed one after another. A Yuan, like an eggplant beaten by frost, leaned against a big tree in the posthouse, his eyes wide open. Looking straight into the distance, his face was ashen, like a mourning concubine.In his hand, it was the "Healthy Fitness Puzzle Skills" that he had almost scratched.

What is the secret of this thin booklet, that it can shock a young hero like A Yuan, who has just come out of the rivers and lakes, into such a distraught appearance?

It turned out that this "Healthy Fitness Puzzle Skill" is the old man's "Invincible Thunderbolt Invincible Skill".

Moreover, it seems that this is the whole book...

How much suffering and grievance has he endured for this exercise?Thinking of it, Ah Yuan couldn't help but burst into tears.Old man, Mengmeng, Qing'er, how many people bullied him enough with this crap, but in the end, the genuine version only sold for 25 yuan...

At that time, A Yuan ran more than ten laps in the streets and alleys of Yunji Town, roaring loudly.Pedestrians who don't know why are wondering where such a rutted donkey came from.

As a result, A Yuanyou was so angry that he wanted to kill someone, and he was so tired that he couldn't even scold the old man, so he fell down and lay there for three or four hours without moving.
