Fireworks exploded in the sky one after another, and the brilliant light illuminated the entire night sky.
It also reflects the city below.
The lights in Huaishan County are bright, the streets and alleys are bustling with people, all the shops have their doors open, and the guys in short coats stand at the door and shout enthusiastically.
They all had red faces and followed the customers coming in and out without distinction.
Although it’s not yet the New Year’s Day, this small city on the border of Zhongzhou has already fallen into a festive carnival!
Even ladies from all the ladies who rarely go out usually came to the street together to watch the excitement.
Not to mention other people.
You must know that for a long time in the past, the people in Huaishan City were all shrouded in the shadow of evil and terror. People hid at home at night, or even hid in underground secret rooms, and did not dare to come out at all.
Various true and false news are circulating among the people, exacerbating people's fear.
Moreover, more and more people are fleeing from the villages and towns, which not only greatly increases the burden on the county, but also makes it difficult for everyone to have expectations for the future.
Some capable people quietly fled the city.
Now that the clouds have cleared and the mist has cleared, the town government has announced that the culprit responsible for the evil evil has been killed, and all the towns below the county seat have been recovered.
At this time, all the emotions that had accumulated in people's hearts were released at once.
So much so that this carnival celebrating victory has a bit of madness!
On the Star Observation Deck of Tianshu Pavilion in the Guarded Mansion, Wang Chen sat on a spiritual rattan armchair and watched the fireworks blooming not far away.
This is not a spell cast by a monk, but a real firework.
There was a thick smell of gunpowder smoke in the air.
It was this familiar smell that reminded Wang Chen of his previous life.
On a certain day in a certain month of a certain year, he also looked up at the sky like this and admired the bright fireworks.
"Senior Brother Wang..."
Zhao Hongyi's voice brought Wang Chen back from his thoughts. He turned around and saw the Huaishan Guardian envoy placing a steaming cup of spiritual tea in front of him.
“Come and try Huaishan Lingcha.”
Zhao Hongyi smiled and said: "This is tribute tea. Only real people in the sect can drink it!"
"oh."
Wang Chen couldn't help but become interested: "You must try it!"
Seven days ago, he and Zhao Hongyi set up a trap to lure the evil cultivator who caused the trouble into a trap and successfully killed him.
Then Zhao Hongyi returned safely with his beloved son who was used as bait, stabilizing the people of Huaishan City in one fell swoop.
Wang Chen then continued his attack and cleared several other towns.
So far, there are no more evil spirits causing chaos in Huaishan County!
Tonight, Zhao Hongyi entertained Wang Chen at the Tianshu Pavilion Star Observation Deck.
Picking up the steaming tea cup, Wang Chen felt a spiritual breath blowing towards his face, and his spirits suddenly lifted.
Bringing it to his mouth and taking a sip, he was surprised to find that the seemingly hot tea actually had a refreshing air that went down his throat and reached his belly, leaving a mellow and sweet aroma on his lips and teeth.
The next moment, it was as if a ball of extremely pure spiritual energy exploded in his stomach, instantly seeping into his internal organs.
Go straight to the zenith acupoint!
Wang Chen was so excited that he felt as if he had been cleansed from head to toe, from body to soul.
Feeling so comfortable!
Not only that, the mana flowing in his body became lighter.
Wang Chen instinctively activated the innate Five Elements Kung Fu, and instantly absorbed the spiritual energy contained in the tea.
No impurities remain.
This spiritual tea is really amazing!
“Great tea!”
His admiration came from the bottom of his heart and was not adulterated at all - it is truly a spiritual tea that only real people can enjoy!
"Hehehe."
Zhao Hongyi was happy and proud: "Our Huaishan Mountain is a small place and we don't have any other specialties. Only the five-leaf tea produced on the top of the Huaishan Mountain has a unique taste. Brewing it and drinking it can calm the mind and nourish the soul."
"The output is too small. After paying tribute to the sect every year, we can only keep three taels for ourselves."
As he spoke, he took out a jade jar and handed it to Wang Chen: "Senior Brother Wang, this pound of Huaishan Five-leaf Spirit Tea is a little gift from me. You must never refuse it again!"
Last time, in order to thank Wang Chen for his help, Zhao Hongyi also tried to send a small tribute.
But Wang Chen declined.
At that time, the culprit had not been discovered. Wang Chen could not guarantee that he could complete the task, so how could he take advantage of others and owe favors and karma?
Now that the entire Huaishan County is free of evil spirits and the rivers and seas are clean, he can be said to be the biggest contributor.
After thinking about it, Wang Chen happily accepted the gift.
"Thank you, senior brother."
As the guardian of Huaishan, Zhao Hongyi could only keep three taels of spiritual tea for himself a year.
This pound is equivalent to three or four years' worth, and may be all his savings.
This gift is quite substantial!
"It should."
Zhao Hongyi sighed: "Without senior brother, I, Huaishan, would really be in big trouble."
He is different from Wang Chen. Wang Chen is the evil spirit dispatched by the sect. If he fails in his mission, he will just leave and he will not be punished much when he returns.
As a garrison envoy, Zhao Hongyi has the responsibility of guarding the land and protecting the people. He cannot escape by running away.
And he can't run either.
Because his family, tribesmen and basic business are all here!
Not to mention a mere pound of spiritual tea, Zhao Hongyi was willing to pay even half of his family property.
Now that Wang Chen accepted this gift, he was very happy.
Although Zhao Hongyi and Wang Chen had only known each other for a short time, the local garrison was deeply impressed by Wang Chen's combat effectiveness in eradicating evil spirits.
The most important thing is that Wang Chen is very young and has unlimited future prospects.
So he decided to make a good relationship.
"Senior Brother Wang, you can drink these spiritual teas first. From now on, I will give you a few taels every year."
Zhao Hongyi was also willing to spend a lot of money.
Huaishan Lingcha is divided into grades. The best five-leaf Lingcha comes from three mother trees. The tea produced is specially provided to the sect and is indeed very precious.
But the amount that Zhao Hongyi can keep for himself is actually more than three taels. In good times, there are also five or six taels.
And by marrying Wang Chen, he will have a powerful aid in Xihaizong, which is worth much more than a few taels of spiritual tea!
Zhao Hongyi calculated this account clearly.
Wang Chen also clearly understood the thoughts of the local guardian envoy.
But he won't have any objections.
Although Wang Chen is an inner disciple of the Xihai Sect, he does not have many friends in the sect. It is not a bad thing to make a few more capable and capable fellow monks.
The two of them had no grudges and chatted while sipping the spiritual tea.
Zhao Hong agreed with Wen Guangbo that when he talked about some strange things in the West Sea Spiritual Realm, he told them clearly and clearly, and there was no risk of being left in the dark.
From time to time, groups of fireworks would rise in the county town.
The sky is full of fiery trees and silver flowers!——
