Behind the young man on the horse, there was a tall man with a beard wearing a bamboo hat and shabby clothes chattering, and there were two black and white dogs with smooth and thick hair beside them. Such a strange group, when they arrived at the gate of Anqing Mansion, caused a stir among the defenders.
Soldier's attention.
"Stop, what do you do?"
The young city guard stopped Feng Qing'an, but his vigilant eyes fell on Jiang Bei, who was chattering all the way. He was also a martial arts practitioner, and he felt that there was something unusual about this seemingly slovenly man.
"I am a young student rushing to take the exam. This is my guide. As for this person, he is a strange person I just met. He has been harassing me. He wants to compete with me for no reason. I suspect that this person has a brain disease. Please sir.
Stop this person and have a good interrogation."
As Feng Qing'an spoke, he pretended to fumble around in his arms and took out his road guide. Not just anyone could run around. The dynasty that still had order controlled this very strictly.
"You are the only one with a brain disease. With your ability, why should you take part in the imperial examination!"
Jiangbei, who had always been puzzled and couldn't understand why people like Feng Qing'an wanted to take part in the imperial examination, became even more annoyed when he heard this guy talking about him like this. In his eyes, Feng Qing'an was the one with the wrong brain.
.
It makes him feel trembling and uneasy now. If you only need to go to the government to show off your skills like this, you will be asked to become an official, so why not take part in the imperial examination?
"How presumptuous, you are just a barbarian, and you actually dare to discuss the imperial examination!"
But before Feng Qingan said anything, not far away, a scholar wearing a Confucian shirt and carrying a long sword suddenly glared angrily, holding his hands on the hilt of the sword behind his back, as if he was about to draw the sword and kill someone.
.
"The rotten scholar!"
Jiang Bei glanced at the sword-wielding scholar and dismissed it. There were traces of martial arts practice on the scholar's body, but it didn't catch his eye at all.
"Candidate from Jiangyang Prefecture, you came from such a far away place. These two dogs are also yours?"
The young general guarding the city looked at Heishan with smooth hair, and then at Bai Yao, who was handsome and elegant, and asked Feng Qing'an, this young man is the only one who can bring two dogs, and the rough man behind him won't even look at it.
Like the owners of these two dogs.
"That's right, it's used by guards on the way to the exam!"
"Well, let's go into the city. You are not allowed to ride horses in the streets of the city. You must dismount and walk!"
After staring at Feng Qing'an's overly young face for a while, the young city guard returned the letter in his hand to Feng Qing'an. Of course, he noticed something strange about Feng Qing'an, but his identity was unmistakable, and as someone who dared to take the exam alone
Candidates, it is not normal for you to have some abilities.
"Thank you!"
Feng Qing'an got off the horse, took over the road guide, led the horse and followed the crowd into the city, while Jiang Bei on the side wanted to follow, but was stopped.
"Where's your guide?"
The young city guard frowned and stared at the sloppy man in front of him.
"It was lost a long time ago!"
Jiang Bei looked at Feng Qing'an who had entered the city and merged into the crowd and disappeared. He was a little anxious, and his tone suddenly became more and more vicious.
"If there is no road guide, you can go back and forth from wherever you go, and you are not allowed to enter the city!"
In fact, there is no need for a road guide to enter the city. After all, farmers from surrounding towns often enter the city to sell. If they had to use a road guide every time they came to the city, they, the city defenders, would be busy. It was just that the young general saw something was wrong with the people in front of him.
"Do you know what I'm here to do?"
At this moment, Jiang Bei had completely lost his patience. A mere young general dared to stop him. He stretched out his hand, picked up the young general's collar, and pulled him in front of him.
"What do you want to do? I am a member of the military!"
The young city guard was shocked and angry. He never expected that the man in front of him was so bold and dared to attack him. More importantly, he found that he was completely powerless to resist.
"It's just a small hundred households. Let me tell you, I came to the city to receive an official. After today, I will be your immediate boss. When you see me, you have to bow your head and call me sir!"
Jiang Bei looked disdainful. Of course he did not want to conflict with Da Jin. He knew that he was unable to resist, so he had no choice but to join, but it did not mean that a small soldier guarding the city could act recklessly on him.
"How dare you attack officers and soldiers!"
"Let go, sir!"
When other soldiers at the city gate saw their superior being attacked, they raised their spears and pointed them at Jiangbei. The city gate suddenly became commotion.
"Quiet, everyone!"
The noise in his ears made Jiang Bei irritated, and his eyes shone brightly. The strong pressure instantly made these soldiers unable to hold their weapons, and they were so frightened that they fell to the ground. As for the passers-by who were shouting, they were frightened.
Got to be dumbfounded.
"Have you broken through the Xiantian realm?!"
The young general guarding the city realized at this moment that although he was a small role guarding the city gate, he was guarding the city gate anyway, so he still had some vision.
"I still have some eyesight. I'm here to lead the army today. What's wrong? I can't enter the city without a road guide?"
Seeing the change in the young general's expression, Jiang Bei's expression relaxed and he loosened his palm. He had no choice. If he really followed the rules, he wouldn't even be able to enter the city gate. Wouldn't this be a joke and he would be a shitty official?
"Of course you can, please forgive me for being clumsy!"
The young general is very smart and has already called out the master in advance. He already knows what kind of warrior this person is. Once he enters the government, if he enters the military camp, he must be a general. Of course, he only has a rank but no real power. But
It's enough to handle him.
"Then why are you still standing there? Why don't you lead the way for me!"
"Yes, sir, please come with me!"
The strong have their own privileges. Even if it is dereliction of duty to lead the other party, no one will blame him.
In Anqing Mansion, Feng Qingan, who was walking on the street with his horse and Hei Shan and Bai Yao, was still the focus of the crowd, even though these three guys had disguised themselves and changed into ordinary appearances.
"Why!"
Feng Qingan glanced around and sighed helplessly. Naturally, he didn't care about those ordinary eyes. The key was that he could see everything in front of and behind him, and even in the darkness of the streets he passed.
To the tall and looming figure.
The ghosts and gods of Anqing Mansion!
But I guess it won't be as troublesome as Jiangyang Mansion. At least he has a relationship with the city god of Anqing Mansion who killed dragons together, so it should be a lot easier.
"Rent a house to live in for a while!"
Feng Qing'an asked passers-by and found the largest restaurant in the city. He found the store owner and spent a lot of money to rent a house near the lake.
The upper rooms of ordinary inns and restaurants are just rooms with slightly better interior decoration, but in really big restaurants, the best accommodation is a separate courtyard.
Among them, there are maids and servants at your disposal, and there are recipes for three meals a day. No matter what you want to eat, someone will bring it to you. If you are too lazy to move, don't want to go out, and want to have some fun, you can also call the brothel leader to come to your door.
As long as the money is in place, no matter what you want or what you want to play, as long as it can be moved or delivered, there will be someone to take care of it. Feng Qingan is naturally not short of such money. He is a person who has robbed a water house.
The silver bricks that Suicune used to pave the floor were all genuine and of excellent quality. Just pick up a piece and it would be enough for you to live happily in the city.
Of course, Feng Qing'an was not such a luxurious person. After he rented this villa, he even kicked out all the servants and maids who were waiting for orders. He only asked them to deliver three meals on time and did not need the rest.
When the servants and maids in the other courtyard retreated, a curtain that isolated the inside and outside enveloped the other courtyard where Feng Qingan lived, so that the mortals outside the other courtyard could no longer see what was happening inside.
"This villa requires ten taels of gold a day, and the young master can live there for a month. He is really generous."
An old man appeared quietly, wearing white clothes and a golden crown, with a simple appearance, red-gold eyes, indifferent and calm.
"This is all thanks to the City God. If I hadn't killed the fish and dragon, I wouldn't have been able to get the money. Now it's just a drop in the bucket. If the City God needs it, I can build a ten-foot golden body for the City God.
"
Feng Qing'an responded with a smile, what he said was absolutely true, as long as the city god nodded, he could really use fine gold to build a golden body for him.
Anyway, when he left the Shuifu Mansion, he had basically pulled out everything he could. No gold tiles were left, all the silver bricks were pried away, and all the jade beams were dismantled. His current net worth is as rich as any country in the world, which may be an exaggeration.
But buying a few cities is not a big problem.
"How can I build my body out of yellow and white things if I add this to the city god of this place? I can just make clay sculptures and paint them!"
The Anqing Prefecture City God shook his head and refused Feng Qingan's proposal. He had no interest in yellow and white things.
"The city god is righteous!"
Feng Qing'an cupped his hands to show his admiration. Who wouldn't like this kind of fighting a tough battle together and then asking for nothing and not dividing anything after the fight?
"Mr. Feng, I know that the young master has been quite busy recently. He may have just come to the city to take a rest. I don't want to disturb him at all. It's just that the young master often behaves unexpectedly, so I have to come and disturb him!"
As he spoke, the Anqing Mansion City God's eyes fell on Sen Miao, who was disguised as a horse riding on dark clouds and snow.
His words can be said to be sincere. After the last contact, he has no intention of having a second contact with this young man.
After all, he followed the Shinto way, and what he did was to protect the tranquility of the land and water, and to gain the people's incense and worship. When he came into contact with such a person with such an extraordinary background, blessings and disasters were unpredictable.
But after the young master entered the city, he realized that he had indeed thought too much. In the communication, there were only two spiritual beasts and wolves close to the great demon level next to the young master. The one he saw last time
The same is true.
But this time when the young master entered the city, there was actually a big demon next to him. This was a real big demon, not close to this level. When such a being entered the city, it would be unreasonable for him, the city god, to pretend to be blind.
It's also too derelict of duty.
But no matter what, it was just a matter of friendship after killing the dragon species. It was hard for him to send his civil and military judges to handle this kind of matter. They might not be able to handle it well, so he, the city god of the city, could only handle it personally.
"I wonder who this is?"
In the city god's red-gold eyes full of divinity, the dark clouds in front of him were walking on the snow, and a layer of hazy brilliance bloomed on his body, completely covering his eyes so that he could not see his true form.
"Sen Miao is the son of the former Shuijun of Bailang River!"
Fine dragon scales appeared on the horse's body, and a pair of snow-white wings spread out. Sen Miao showed part of her dragon-horse posture. Just like that, the face of this ancient-looking ghost and god showed a look of wonder.
"Are you Mu Xi's child?"
"You know my father?"
Sen Miao stared at the old man in front of her with confused eyes. Mu Xi was her father's name.
"I have been serving as the City God in Anqing Mansion for six hundred years. I naturally know your father and have some friendship with him!"
Speaking of this matter, the old man's face also showed a look of sadness and reminiscence.
"You know him?"
Sen Miao's expression couldn't help but change a little, but Feng Qing'an added at the right time,
"I was able to kill Hongxi, but it was thanks to the help of Lord City God!"
"Ashamed, my old friend of three hundred years was killed, and I only dare to add insult to injury two hundred years later and take the opportunity to take revenge!"
Fucheng Huang shook his head, but there was a look of guilt on his face, and he was not proud of it. When he learned that the dragon horse in front of him was the daughter of his good friend, even as a ghost, his emotions were touched.
"Thank you for avenging my father!"
Sen Miao's eyes towards Cheng Huang changed completely at this moment, and she lowered her head slightly. Even though she had waited for two hundred years, she still remembered her father and was willing to take revenge for him. That was worthy of her thanks.
"It doesn't have to be like this. It's just that the evil dragon has been killed, and the position of Shuijun of Bailang River is vacant. Why don't you accept Shuijun?"
Originally he was worried that the big demon entering the city would cause harm, but now that he learned that it was the daughter of his former friend, the old city god's attitude changed again. He glanced at Feng Qing'an, with an unclear look in his eyes.
"I don't want to follow my father's footsteps!"
Sen Miao replied.
"So you follow this Mr. Feng?"
"This is a decision I made after careful consideration."
"In this case, I can only wish you that one day you will be able to turn the clouds and the sea without fear of anything!"
The old city god looked at Sen Miao's expression and sighed slightly, but he couldn't say much. Although she was the daughter of an old friend, that was two hundred years ago. Now it was just the first time they met, and he was not
The other person’s real elder.
"Thank you for your good words!"
"Lord City God, I wonder if Senmiao can stay in the city?"
Feng Qingan took advantage of the situation and asked.
"The dragon and horse are auspicious signs. If you are not afraid of trouble, there is no harm in letting her reveal her true form and walk in the city. She can stay in the city as long as she wants!"
The old city god looked at Feng Qingan and said expressionlessly.
He couldn't understand how the daughter of his old friend was abducted by the boy in front of him with just a few words and became a mount. She was really hateful.
Unfortunately, his status is too embarrassing, and even if he wanted to, he would not be able to intervene. If he intervened forcefully, it would not only be a thankless task, but he would also be resented.
Moreover, if you think carefully about the origin of the boy in front of you, following him may indeed be better than staying in the Bailang River and becoming Suicune. At least you won't be killed just by being a greedy dragon.
"This is too much of a double standard!"
Feng Qing'an, who had seen Sen Miao's ferocious side with his own eyes, couldn't help but sigh.
