Mu Xiaobao touched his round chin and looked at the fierce old man in front of him for a moment, "Xiaobao doesn't know who you are yet!"
Lord Zhang beside him explained, "This is our person in charge of Yuan City, Lord Yan."
Master Yan raised his hand to signal him to shut up, "I am the one who can let you into the city."
Xiao Qiao frowned slightly and looked at the other party carefully, "You still won't let us enter the city? Do you want to regret it?"
Master Yan glanced at Xiao Qiao and said, "After I answer, I will let you into the city."
Mu Xiaobao replied seriously, "Uncle Bearded, I clearly promised you that you can get in after fixing the lock. You didn't say you had to answer the question."
"It's okay if you don't want to say it, but everyone entering the city must explain their identity." Master Yan said with a serious smile.
Mu Xiaobao once again raised the gold medal of the five major families, "Can I use this?"
Lord Yan glanced at the golden and bronze sign and said, "The five major families must also explain who they are."
Mu Lingbo gave a very meaningful smile. When she passed through various countries, every time she used the gold medals of the five major families, no matter how arrogant and domineering the other party was, they would always become groveling.
And this little Yeliang Kingdom actually behaved like a man when facing the five great families.
Xia Houyan finally lost his patience and told Xiao Qiao, "Forget it, reveal your identity."
Xiao Qiao raised her chin, "Listen clearly, our master is the heir apparent of the Xiahou family. Haven't you heard of the Xiahou family's business name? There are still some of us in Yeliang country!"
"Xiahou's family?" Mr. Yan raised his eyelids slightly, "It turns out they are the owners of Xianyun Inn."
Xiao Qiao said solemnly, "It's good to know."
"Why did Mr. Xiahou suddenly come to Yeliang Kingdom?"
Xia Houyan raised his right eyebrow gracefully, "Even if you are the person in charge, these words are a bit too much. Everyone in Cangyao and under my Xiahou business name knows that I may go to any vassal country or any shop at any time. Could it be that I am right to me?"
You still don’t understand the business?”
Master Yan seemed to smile, but the thick beard completely covered the curvature of the corners of his mouth, "Just asking casually, such big figures don't often come to Yeliang Country. So...who are you next to?"
Before Xia Houyan could speak, Mu Lingbo spoke lazily, "Family."
Xia Houyan's heart was shocked. These two words were simply scary. The big devil must not know them.
On the surface, he still smiles gracefully, and his handsome face has a charming charm about me.
"I see." Mr. Yan said no more, "Master Xiahou, please come into the city."
In order to show his dignity, he got into the carriage and was driven into the city by Xiao Qiao.
As soon as he entered the carriage, Mu Lingbo's virtuous look with a faint smile turned sharp. The smile was still hanging on the corner of his mouth, but it conveyed a dangerous meaning.
"This place is still some distance from the Xianyun Inn. Please send your subordinates to clear the way." Master Yan's voice sounded outside again.
Mu Xiaobao poked his head out and said, "Thank you, uncle bearded man!"
While the carriage was driving, there was almost no sound of people outside the city, and no one spoke inside the carriage.
Mu Lingbo curiously opened a small window in the carriage and saw rows of stone houses under the dusk outside the carriage, most of which had their doors closed. These stone houses were not randomly stacked bungalows, but were made of large stone slabs.
Complete, neat and tidy.
Xia Houyan saw that Tai was silent, so he spoke first, "According to what I knew before, the Yeliang Kingdom is actually very small. It is better to say it is a country than a city. This distant city is one of the small cities surrounding the imperial city.
, in fact, it doesn’t even take an hour to get from here to Night City, the capital of the country.”
Mu Lingbo was a little distracted, "Really, we are going to Night City?"
"Of course you don't need to stay in these small towns for too long. You see, there are not many people here. All the business people here are also in Night City. If you live in the surrounding small towns, you need to make a special trip to Night City if you want to buy things."
"That's it." She said calmly.
While listening to Xia Houyan's talk, she continued to listen attentively outside the window. In fact, this was not an empty city, but there were really few people.
Some of those exquisite stone huts are still inhabited.
After passing the rows of exquisite little stone houses, there was a little bit of excitement outside. Some people were setting off sky lanterns, and some were placing water lanterns in the river. Many children were playing, and they would throw their hats at this rare foreign carriage when they saw it.
A surprised look.
"Wow, there are so many children like Xiaobao!" Mu Xiaobao lay beside the window and looked at them, showing a bit of envy in his eyes.
Mu Lingbo touched Mu Xiaobao's head and said, "When we find the inn, there will definitely be many children there."
Mu Xiaobao nodded vigorously and looked out the window with a smile.
The sky gradually darkened, and the slowly rising sky lantern gradually faded away, becoming a bright spot in the sky.
"Mother, can these lights be placed in the sky?" His eyes were filled with longing.
Xia Houyan smiled and said, "I heard that after you make a wish and release the lantern, the lantern will float all the way to the Heavenly Palace. When the fairies in the Heavenly Palace receive the sky lantern, they can read your wish to the gods. If you are lucky, your wish will come true."
Mu Xiaobao thought for a while and looked at Mu Lingbo, "Mother, is it true?"
Mu Lingbo said without hesitation, "Combustion requires oxygen. The higher you fly, the thinner the oxygen, and the lower the temperature. Even if you are lucky enough not to be blown out by a strong wind, in the end you will either lack oxygen to put out the fire, or it will be cold to put out the fire."
Or if you accidentally light the paper of the sky lantern, it will burn directly before it falls."
Xia Houyan said "Ah" dumbfounded.
"And burning requires fuel, just like if you light a candle, it will burn out. How much fuel do you think a flying sky lantern can carry? Considering all factors, you are lucky if it can fly a thousand meters high.
! Any high mountain is more than a thousand meters, how can such a short heavenly palace come from?" She added lightly.
Mu Xiaobao was stunned. The desire in his eyes was instantly extinguished, replaced by confusion and confusion, "Really?"
"It's not as reliable to expect a piece of flying paper to realize your wish as to make more money yourself!" Mu Lingbo finally concluded.
Xia Houyan took a deep breath and slowly shook the folding fan. Although he could hardly understand a word of what she said, he had extinguished all the children's beautiful illusions.
But soon, Mu Xiaobao smiled again, "Wow, even though I don't understand anything, it sounds so powerful! She is indeed Xiaobao's mother, she knows a lot of knowledge!"
Mu Lingbo came back to his senses and suddenly smiled, "Actually, Xiaobao can also make a wish, just play it as a game! And! If you have the opportunity to light up the lanterns with my little sister, do it! Do it! Do it!"
Don't say to others what mother just said! Just say what Uncle Xiahou said!"
Xia Houyan no longer knew what expression to use when facing this kind of 'recognition'.
