Little Sweet Pea listens to this kind of legend with gusto.
Tang Miaoxin squinted her eyes and looked at the imposing peacock. She always felt that there was some formation on it, but it was far away and she couldn't see clearly.
This was the mythical beast of the First City, and she couldn't let anyone climb up with a ladder to see it, so she quietly listened to Su Letian's story.
Su Letian continued: "The feathers on the peacock were originally inlaid with a kind of gemstone abundant in the First City."
"It's just that after several battles, the gem was knocked off."
"Now only the gems on the peacock's feathers are real. The emerald green feathers on the peacock's body are painted by the painter every year."
Tang Miaoxin had heard about this before, and couldn't help but sigh: "The ancestors of the First City are really wealthy."
"He should be the first and last person to put a rare gem on a door."
Although the ancestor of the First City must have left many advanced theories to his descendants to ensure the longevity of the First City, he sometimes loves to show off too much.
Who has no trouble sticking gems on the entrance gate?
This is not an obvious provocation to others: I am very rich, come and rob me!
Su Letian smiled and said: "Perhaps what our ancestors want to say is that I have plenty of money, so I am not afraid of beating you."
Tang Miaoxin couldn't help laughing when she heard this statement.
Su Letian said seriously again: "The city lord said that our ancestors embedded gems on the door to attract covetousness from outsiders."
"He wants future generations to always have a sense of worry. Otherwise, if the days of peace are too long, people's fighting spirit will be worn away."
When he said this, he said softly: "How you want to understand this matter depends on how you see it in your heart."
"The First City can stand among the six countries with one city and remain safe for nearly a hundred years. It relies on its own true ability."
Tang Miaoxin had no doubts about this matter, because First City had fought many large and small wars with other countries over the years and won them all.
Little Sweet Bean kept staring at the shining peacock feathers, tilted her head slightly and said, "Mom, this peacock has so many eyes."
Tang Miaoxin knew that he had mistaken all the gems on the peacock feathers for eyes.
She smiled and said, "Those are feathers, not eyes."
Xiao Tiandou said with a puzzled face: "No, it's obviously the eyes."
In his opinion, the gems used for eyes and feathers are the same, that is, eyes.
Tang Miaoxin knew that children saw things differently from adults, so she did not deliberately correct Little Sweet Dou.
Little Sweetpea stared into the peacock's eyes and saw that the huge peacock seemed to blink at him and move a little.
He thought he was dazzled. After rubbing his eyes, he found that the peacock did not move. He thought he was dazzled.
After entering Hulao Pass, the scenery you see is completely different.
Standing here and looking in, you can see a large, endless plain.
It was the end of June, and the first season of rice was ripe. At first glance, it looked golden and spectacular.
The city of the First City was built in the middle of the golden rice fields. The ancient city walls exuded a simple and honest brilliance, peaceful and stable.
It was both the first time for Xiao Tiandou and Jiang Hua to see such a scene, and they couldn't help but exclaimed "Wow".
Su Letian asked Ning Guzhou: "Your Highness, King Qin, how does the First City compare with your Qinzhou?"
Ning Guzhou replied: "Although the First City is located in the Yunlian Mountains, it has extremely rare fertile land."
"Qinzhou is close to the cold land in the north and is arid and has little water. The fertility of the land is far inferior to that of the First City."
He had nothing to argue with Su Letian on this matter, because this was a fact that no one could change.
The strength of the First City is not only good at making weapons, but also closely related to their ability to be self-sufficient with thousands of hectares of fertile land.
Su Letian asked Ning Guzhou again: "From your tone, it seems that other places in Qinzhou are better than the First City?"
Ning Guzhou said softly: "Qinzhou has various gemstones and minerals. These should be more than those in the First City. Miaoxin likes these things."
Su Letian: "..."
He inexplicably felt Ning Guzhou's showing off.
He glanced at Ning Guzhou and said, "So what? Do you still think that Miao Xin was a helpless orphan in the capital?"
Ning Guzhou replied: "She has never been helpless. To me, no matter what her status is, she is my woman."
Su Letian: "..."
He felt that Ning Guzhou's words were quite unreasonable.
What does it mean that Tang Miaoxin is Ning Guzhou's woman? The two of them are not engaged, and they are not husband and wife, and have no relationship at all.
Su Letian smiled and said: "Go tell your father and second uncle what you said later and see if they don't break your legs!"
Ning Guzhou knew that his words were somewhat of a reminder, and immediately smiled lightly: "Thank you!"
Su Letian was slightly distracted when he saw Ning Guzhou smiling, and curled his lips slightly.
He has always known that Tang Miaoxin is a bit superficial when it comes to finding men: she likes good-looking men.
Ning Guzhou has a serious and troublesome appearance, and is very scheming. When he is obsessed with being good to Tang Miao, she simply cannot escape.
Su Letian curled his lips slightly, snorted coldly, and ignored him.
Ning Guzhou was not angry. He looked at Xiao Tiandou and Tang Miaoxin. No matter what the price, he would get the recognition of the First City.
Tang Miaoxin ignored the undercurrent between them and just sighed softly.
It still takes half a day to ride horses from Hulao Pass to the First City. Xiao Tiandou and Ning Changping just barely had fun along the way.
The terrain inside Hulao Pass is far less steep than when entering the pass, and the mountain roads are not too rugged.
Ning Changping rode his horse and rushed into the forest with Little Sweet Dou, and then came out again.
When they came out, they had either multiple garlands or pheasants on their hands.
Tang Miaoxin yelled twice at first, but the two crazy people ignored her completely, so she didn't bother to waste any more energy, and let the two guys run and play at the same time.
When the two people came out of the forest for the last time, Tang Miaoxin heard Ning Changping shouting from a distance: "Let's go!"
Tang Miaoxin was a little strange. With Ning Changping's skills, even if there was a big bear or a tiger in the forest, she could still capture it alive.
There are no such beasts in this forest, so what is there to hide from?
She turned around and glanced, and saw Ning Changping riding a horse, holding a small sweet bean in one hand and holding a huge honeycomb in the other, running forward like crazy.
Behind Ning Changping, a large swarm of bees followed.
Tang Miaoxin thinks that her psychological quality is very good, and ordinary little troubles and waves cannot change her color.
When she saw the swarm of bees chasing after her, her scalp felt numb. She hated this kind of insect the most!
She also shouted: "Run!"
