Entertainment of Spring and Autumn

Chapter 486: Old appearance replaced by new appearance

On the second day of February, the dragon raises its head. Xue Mu returned to Lingzhou for a month.

A handsome-faced boy curiously stepped into this city that has attracted worldwide attention recently.

He often heard people talk about it in the tavern on the road. Lingzhou City has changed a lot now... When asked about the specific changes, people couldn't tell, but they just said: You will know after you see it for yourself.

The first time he entered the city, his eyes were fixed on the long cement road and he couldn't move away.

The road surface after the rain is fresh and smooth, spreading gently, with slightly sparkling reflections, like the mystery of the stars. There was a car dealership near the city. When the waiter saw a stranger coming in, he rushed over and asked, "Does the guest want to take a car tour?"

The young man wondered: "What is a car tour?"

The waiter pulled a rickshaw and said with a smile: "Horses are not allowed in the city. The roads are now smooth and clean, and it is very easy to pull a rickshaw. We can take the guests to visit the whole city, or wherever they want to go, we will take them with them."

A new profession has actually emerged... The young man became more and more surprised and said deliberately: "I know the road, it's not far away."

The waiter smiled and said: "Many sections of the road have been paved recently, so we have to take a detour. Foreigners may not know how to get there."

The young man asked: "How can the people of Lingzhou not complain about such complicated and inconvenient things?"

The guy said with a sneer: "Short-sighted."

This strong sense of superiority made the young man dumbfounded. He didn't care and said with a smile: "Then take me for a ride."

The waiter suddenly realized that this was a fat sheep, and his arrogance of not asking about the price was definitely not ordinary... When the young man got into the car, he asked carefully: "Where are you going, sir?"

The young man touched the car decoration curiously and looked around. This kind of open human-pulled cart can really tour the whole city, and it is very comfortable. When the waiter asked, he replied casually: "Go to the City Lord's Mansion."

The guy pulling the cart staggered, and he suddenly gave up on his plan to lead the guests around to defraud money, and rushed towards the city lord's palace like flying.

"The guest is an old acquaintance of our city lord, the Marquis?"

"Oh, my brother is friends with him, and my family has some business dealings with the Xingyue Sect."

The clerk was in awe: "Your family is..."

"The Zheng family in Sword Forging Valley, my name is Zheng Yichen."

The man's expression was extremely strange, and he stopped talking while pulling the cart.

The Zheng brothers of the Sword Forging Valley are super celebrities in the first rookie spectrum. There is no doubt that they will become one of the top figures among the elders of the Sword Forging Valley in the future... This car can be offered home...

Zheng Yichen soon saw the main street, Tian Street, with a plaque inscribed by Xue Mu on the street. He saw things very quickly and memorized the entire poem at a glance, and said with a smile: "The absolute victory over Yanliu Manchuang in the Imperial Capital is a good sentence. The people in the capital will fight with you, right?"

The clerk smiled and said: "Someone suggested that the city lord change the imperial capital to the spiritual capital to avoid trouble. The city lord ignored it at all, he is so domineering."

Zheng Yichen smiled and asked: "It seems that you respect City Lord Xue very much?"

"Of course." The clerk pointed to the distance: "Did you see the construction site? The city lord is building the Lingzhou Martial Arts Hall. By then, my son can go in and learn the basics."

Zheng Yichen's heart skipped a beat and he narrowed his eyes.

Looking along the way, construction was going on everywhere. In addition to paving other branch roads in the city, you can also see large wells drilled in many places and people are working on them. The guy said: "We are rebuilding underground drainage."

Zheng Yichen nodded. It was indeed a big change. I'm afraid it will change again in a month or two.

Saying that Xue Mu doesn't do anything... what he does in one month is equivalent to what others do in several years.

Suddenly I saw someone fighting on the roadside and drew my sword towards each other. This is a common situation in this world. Zheng Yichen asked the waiter to stop curiously: "Look at the fight."

The guy shook his head and said, "There's no need to look."

Before Zheng Yichen had time to ask why, he saw seven aunts and eight aunts on the street rushing up to him: "Stop, you ruined our good road. Can you two scoundrels afford to pay for it? It's still like before. One foot and one piece of bluestone?"

Before the two frowning passers-by could react, they were picked up by the aunts who rushed forward and turned away six doors: "If you intend to destroy public property, let Mr. An arrest you and teach you a lesson."

"..." Zheng Yichen originally wanted to ask what to do if the manhole covers, water guides, and other facilities were damaged or stolen, but now he doesn't need to ask. Lingzhou people are inherently tough, but now this sense of superiority has created a different kind of cohesion. It is a bit difficult for ordinary people to cause trouble in Lingzhou...

I just never thought that even aunt could be so fierce...

"What's the name of this street?"

"The rising sun."

Upon arriving at the city lord's palace, Zheng Yichen rewarded the coachman with a large piece of silver, feeling a bit complicated and strange in his heart. He was a famous family member in the Sword Forging Valley, and others only saw the world when they went to him. As a result, he returned to a mere county and city, but he saw a new world...

Xue Mu was in a meeting at this time. When he received a notice that Zheng Yichen from the Sword Forging Valley was visiting, he smiled and said directly: "Let him come and come up with ideas."

Zheng Yichen was even more curious after hearing this. Why would an outsider like himself come up with ideas for a meeting in Lingzhou? Xue Mu is really different in what he does.

After being led into the side hall, he realized that this was not really a meeting... A group of people gathered around the root-carved coffee table. Zhuo Qingqing made tea with her hands, extremely elegant. Lingzhou officials such as Xue Mu and Zhang Bailing, as well as Lin Dongsheng, the shopkeeper of Zonghengdao, and others , sitting around the coffee table, drinking tea and chatting leisurely.

"...Multiple towers? League of Legends? Glory of Kings? Full-time master? Lord Changxin, what are you talking about..."

"Oh, it's just a team competition title anyway, which one sounds better?"

"It's all weird!"

"Even King of Glory is weird?"

"If a warrior from a county boasts about being a king, isn't it like being crowned a monkey?"

"Tsk, why didn't you tell me that Lingzhou still calls itself the imperial capital?"

"This is a joke for the people in the capital..."

Zheng Yichen stepped into the hall, cupped his fists and saluted: "Zheng Yichen has met you all."

"Yichen is here. Come sit down and taste the new tea recipe from Zonghengdao. It's very fragrant." Xue Mu waved his hand and moved to a seat and said with a smile: "Oh, you are more serious than Zheng Haoran."

Zheng Yichen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was probably the most unruly way of meeting and entertaining guests he had ever seen in his life. It just makes people feel relaxed and at ease, just like visiting friends.

Taking the small porcelain cup from Zhuo Qingqingsu's hand, Zheng Yichen politely thanked him and asked, "What is Marquis Changxin talking about?"

"We're talking about a team competition."

"What do you mean by the towers?"

"Oh, there are many settings for the venue. For example, does destroying the opponent's tower count as a win?"

Zheng Yichen was stunned for a moment. In just a few words, a scene of a battle for a secret realm appeared in his mind. He suddenly felt that this competition mode might be more eye-catching than a one-on-one duel, and it might set off a worldwide trend.

Seeing his appearance, Xue Mu knew that he probably understood what he meant, so he asked, "You, the children of the Zheng family, are well-informed. Can you give me some advice?"

Zheng Yichen said casually: "Since it is not appropriate to be a king, the glory of a warrior is just the same."

Xue Mu felt very boring, but Zhang Bailing, Lin Dongsheng and a group of others all clapped their hands and said, "This is okay."

Xue Mu glared at Zheng Yichen angrily: "You're ruining my good deeds."

Zheng Yichen was so angry and funny. It was obviously you who asked me, why did you blame me? But Xue Mu stretched out his big hand: "You are here to give me the dagger, please take a look."

Zheng Yichen was indeed here to deliver the dagger. A heaven-level shadow dagger cannot be handed over to anyone casually. After receiving Zheng Yezhi's letter, there was even a debate within the Sword Forging Valley for a long time about whether to send the dagger to Wuhen Dao. In the end, the Zheng family rejected all opinions. , and sent Zheng Yichen to deliver it in person.

It was almost time for Zheng Yichen to cast his natal spiritual sword, so he happened to be traveling this time. Originally he thought he would just stop by Lingzhou to give him a dagger while traveling, but this time he suddenly felt that the trip was worthwhile. Why not stay here for a few more days to gain experience?

No wonder everyone from the elder brother to the uncle spoke highly of Xue Mu. This person really has a very special appeal, and people can't help but want to see what other novel things he can do.

He took out the Shadow Dagger and handed it to Xue Mu solemnly with both hands: "This dagger is unparalleled in power. The city lord must remember not to fall into the hands of evil spirits."

"Oh..." Xue Mu carefully put away the dagger and grinned: "It's hard to say evil things...and adultery...does it count if you hook up with someone and become an adulterer?"

Zheng Yichen's face was expressionless. This news was really unexpected.
