When Feng Ruowu heard the name, her eyes widened instantly, and then she looked at Mu Yan in surprise. She didn't know what Mu Yan meant by saying this.
Because the name Shadow is a legend in her memory, a legend that no one can match.
Before arriving in this world, Feng Ruowu was a dedicated dance teacher, but that did not delay her understanding of Shadow because Feng Ruowu could always see reports about Shadow whether in newspapers or on TV.
, gossip about the only mysterious woman in that world who can stand at the top of the underworld.
Recalling what Mu Yan had just said, Feng Ruowu frowned and pondered. Could it be that Mu Yan also wanted to establish a mafia dynasty here like that person?
Looking at Feng Ruowu's tangled expression with a faint smile, Mu Yan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said no more. Looking at the bright moon in the sky, Mu Yan suddenly hoped that he could reach the border as soon as possible, and reach the place where the Three Kingdoms meet.
Yun'an City is the town closest to the military camp checkpoint on the border of Yixuan Kingdom.
After more than ten days of journey, Mu Yan finally arrived at this place
After jumping off the carriage, Mu Yan squinted his eyes and looked at the expressionless passers-by, the silent street atmosphere, and the zombie-like residents. Everything made Mu Yan unable to help but have a crush on this place.
curious
"Mom..." Lying in the carriage, Mu Moxi frowned and exposed her little head, looking at Mu Yan in confusion, "Is this where we are going to come?"
"Yeah" nodded, Mu Yan looked at his daughter with a smile, and asked with a twinkle in his eye: "Xi'er doesn't like it?"
"It's not..." Biting her pink lower lip in confusion, Mu Moxi pouted, "I just feel that there doesn't seem to be anything interesting in this place. Look at them..." He turned around and looked at the people passing by.
The people around her, Mu Moxi, had the word "unhappy" written all over their face, "They can't even smile. Xi'er thinks this place is so strange!"
Reaching out to hold Mu Moxi into his arms, Mu Yan chuckled and tapped the tip of her nose, then said in a gentle tone: "Whether it's fun or not, we have to wait for a while before we can make a conclusion."
After finding an inn at random, Mu Yan and the other two followed the elderly innkeeper upstairs. Looking at the room they were quite satisfied with, they nodded and indicated that he could leave.
Walking into the house, Mu Yan opened two windows and looked at the street below. He smiled and turned to look at Feng Ruowu, "I didn't expect this place to be pretty good."
"Yeah" silently nodded, Feng Ruowu frowned and walked to Mu Yan's side. They looked downstairs together for a long time before asking again: "Yan'er, don't you think this place is more beautiful?"
Shao, is it really a little strange?"
"What do you mean by strange?" Mu Yan raised his eyebrows with a smile, and said knowingly: "This is a small county town on the border. Logically speaking, it should be very prosperous. But here, I saw that
You mean less than a bit of prosperity, but this?"
"Yes, and I think the owner of this inn also has a problem." Thinking back to the scene just now, Feng Ruowu lazily leaned against the wall and continued slowly: "The way he looked at us...
The look of surprise and joy made me feel something was wrong. Business came to my door, but I was unwilling to accept it. This is the first time I have seen such an inn."
Listening to Feng Ruowu's speculation with flickering eyes, the smile on Mu Yan's lips began to slowly deepen.
After packing their luggage, Mu Yan and Feng Ruowu took their valuables and banknotes with them, then took their two children downstairs to eat and sat at the dining table. Mu Yan was in a happy mood making the two little ghosts happy.
, but unexpectedly, several burly men broke into the door, disturbing their thoughts.
"Old man, bring me all the good wine and food!" Sitting on the seat like a regular customer, the leading man called to the shopkeeper and said politely: "Hurry up, uncle is hungry!"
Looking at the few men, the shopkeeper could only sigh secretly, then put on a helpless smile and walked to the back kitchen to bring them the good things in the store. He watched helplessly as the several men ate, drank and patted themselves.
Just leave and have a happy meal
"Grandpa, they didn't give you any money!" Holding the chopsticks, Mu Moxi looked at the men leaving the store with a crooked neck, and complained dissatisfiedly about their crimes in a clear and loud child's voice.
"Hey, my little ancestor" walked nervously in front of Mu Yan and the others. The shopkeeper turned pale and shook his head, "You should keep your voice down, let them hear it and it's all over!"
"Can't we let people complain about not paying for meals?" Mu Moheng on the other side couldn't help but say, "They are so unreasonable" with his chopsticks biting in his mouth.
"Shopkeeper" Mu Yan reached out and patted the shopkeeper on the shoulder. Seeing his wrinkled face full of sorrow, Mu Yan asked softly: "Who were those people just now?"
"Hey..." Heaving a heavy sigh, the shopkeeper glanced at the two adults and two children at Mu Yan's table, then turned to look at the surroundings warily, and then cautiously said: "I don't think you guys are like this."
Bad guy, I have the guts to tell you that if there is nothing important, you should not stay here any longer. The few just now are the guards of the county master's house, and they are also famous street gangsters in Yun'an City. You don't know the situation here.
You and I can't explain each other in a few words, but in short, if you have nothing to do, just leave! The sooner the better!"
"Guard...?" A flash of joking flashed through his eyes, and Mu Yan curled his lips sarcastically, "It's really interesting that a few watchdogs dare to be so presumptuous."
Feng Ruowu noticed Mu Yan's interested look, smiled helplessly and shook her head, reached out and took out a piece of silver and handed it to the shopkeeper, and then explained in his surprised eyes: "We do have something to do, so
I'll trouble you to take care of you while you're here. Don't worry, I won't lose you."
"Okay!" He nodded humbly, took the money, and left with a smile. After a while, he brought a few more dishes to Mu Yan and the others, and then went about his own business.
After eating and drinking, and coaxing the two children to take a nap, Mu Yan walked struttingly on the street, scanning this complicated county with keen eyes.
The border area is not as prosperous as it once was. The watchdogs of the county master's family are arrogant everywhere. Presumably the county master who raises dogs is not a good thing. Army soldiers can be seen everywhere, making this small place filled with war.
The aura of the death row inmates who were occasionally sent here also painted a strong mark on this place.
Standing on the busy street, Mu Yan raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a beautiful smile
The darker the place, the more joyful it made her feel. The chaotic Yun'an City was just in line with her appetite.
As he walked, Mu Yan collected intelligence information until the sun began to slowly set to the west. Mu Yan returned to the inn with a lot of interest. He Feng Ruowu, who was in high spirits, studied how to send a copy to the county magistrate in the evening.
