I got off the motorcade at Xiangkou, found a restaurant to have a casual meal, and then prepared to go shopping, and then rested for two days before heading back to the corridor.
I don’t know why, but Zhang Yan always feels a little uneasy about being close to home. I don’t know if it’s because he has never experienced anything related to “relatives” in his two lifetimes.
In his last life, well, he was already dead on earth, so he should be called his last life, right?
In his previous life, Zhang Yan was an orphan and was adopted by his master from an orphanage. Later, he regarded his master as his father. The death of his master also made him a loner again.
Now that he is reincarnated as a human being, no matter what happened, this body has become one with Zhang Yan's soul, and he should inherit everything about this body, good or bad.
Although the soul of the original owner has dissipated, some memories preserved in the body make it difficult for Zhang Yan to calm down every time he thinks of the word "home".
In the end, Zhang Yan, who had no experience in this area and had no one to learn from, could only bite the bullet and take it one step at a time. During the two days in Xiangkou, he actually bought some local specialties and packaged them to take back as gifts.
Home.
The night before leaving, Zhang Yan had a sleepless night. He was inexplicably irritable and couldn't calm down. He reluctantly finished his homework for the day, and then sat by the window, looking at the light rain that had started to fall outside at an unknown time, and he was filled with thoughts.
In fact, Zhang Yan has been in contact with the family in Langyuan in the past two years, and he has a good grasp of the situation at home. According to the latest letter from his family, life at home has been much better than before, and he has also received help from Langyuan.
Under the care of Mr. Zhou Cangzhou, the guard officer of Yuancheng. The fertile fields exchanged for Zhang Yan’s military achievements have been cultivated by people. Last year’s harvest was not bad, and everyone in the family has gained weight.
Zhang Yan could feel from the words between the lines that it was different from the "forced smile" in the first letter, but the true joy from the heart. He even started a joke with him in the letter, saying that I would tell him to wait for him to come home.
Just tell him a wife and so on.
Following the car all the way, the only thing on the road that could make Zhang Yan feel a little less anxious were the nine bean soldiers left in his hand. Only silence in the magic could temporarily make Zhang Yan feel calmer.
Departing from Xiangkou, we arrived at Langyuan in five days. Zhang Yan had a detailed understanding of his new hometown before.
Because of the special geographical location of the entire Beijiang County, to the north is the "Tonghu Pass", an important pass with the Beiwu Kingdom, which is an extremely important exchange pass between the Nanyuan Kingdom and the Beiwu Kingdom. Beiwu Pass including the "Tea Brick"
The goods from the country will enter the Nanyuan Kingdom from here, and the same amount of goods from the Nanyuan Kingdom will leave here and flow into the Beiwu Kingdom.
In addition to Tonghu Pass, Beijiang County is also close to Yueshui in the east. It can be said that it is directly exposed to the pressure from the military front of Huayue Shangguo on the east bank of Yueshui.
Therefore, Beijiang has formed a special regional pattern with a rare dual proportion of "military" and "business".
Under this pattern, except for Xiangkou, where the governor's office is located, large cities such as Langyuan are not general capital cities, but rather have the meaning of "military strongholds".
In my impression, the city of Langyuan is not prosperous, and the main body is not even large, but it has very high and thick city walls. There is also a full battalion of garrison stationed in the city all year round.
It can be said that Langyuan is more like a town with high walls and heavy troops than the big cities in the counties that Zhang Yan has visited along the way.
Even compared to Yubei Mountain Fortress, Langyuan's city wall is higher. It seems that for Nanyuan Kingdom, the threat from the demon clan from the west is not as great as the threat from Huayue Shangguo across the river in the east. Of course
, it may also be due to the fact that the terrain of Yubei Mountain Fortress is already dangerous and the walls are not necessarily too high.
From a distance, I saw a county monument with the words "Beijiang County" outlined in red paint, which meant that Zhang Yan finally slowly returned to his hometown from Yubei Mountain.
When Zhang Yan saw the city gate, countless fragments of memories came to his mind.
"Ximen." Zhang Yan murmured. It was the same door he walked through when he was sent to the army.
The convoy was about to enter the city, so Zhang Yan consciously walked down first. He no longer had to follow the car, and the documents in his hand also needed to be approved by the guard at the gate, and then he had to go to the local government office to register.
The soldier in the city gate looked at the document and then at Zhang Yan, with a smile on his face. People who came back alive from a place like Yubei Mountain are naturally respected in the army. He led Zhang Yan in.
At the city guard post, a team leader inside checked the documents in Zhang Yan's hand again, and then asked Zhang Yan to wait while he took the documents to the resident clerk to check the registration order.
This round trip took only one meal. The document I brought back had an additional seal, which was the "Langyuan City Guard Seal" and the personal approval of the city guard officer "Zhou Cang".
At this point, the relationship between Zhang Yan and Jun Wu officially came to an end. All that was left was to register at the local Yamen in Langyuan City.
Although Zhang Yan is "the first time here", his body is already very familiar with Langyuan City. Every time he takes a step inside, corresponding memories will come up, telling him where to go to the left and where to go to the right.
Where, how far ahead is there a delicious snack shop...
While Zhang Yan was busy accepting these new memories, he found that the anxiety in his heart did not seem to be getting worse. Instead, he felt much calmer after entering this city.
"Hey, this yamen is pretty bad." Guided by his memory, Zhang Yan quickly found the gate of the Langyuan City local yamen in the city. What caught his eye was a tattered front door.
Although the two doors are tall, they are obviously worn. The red paint on the doors has fallen off, and some corners even directly exposed the wood inside. The copper nails on the doors are also glowing green, making people wonder if they were from
No one has repaired it yet?
Anyway, this is the big city that Zhang Yan has been to. It can be said that this is the worst yamen gate.
There were two government officials standing guard outside the door. When they saw Zhang Yan approaching, they asked, "What are you doing?"
"Two gentlemen, I'm here to register."
"Registration? Where are the documents?"
"Haha, here, look." Zhang Yan took out the document and handed it to the other party.
"Oh! Brother, you're awesome! A place like Yubei Mountain can help you clear your grave and come back alive? Tsk, tsk, this is the first time I've seen you. Okay, take your things and come with me. Wang Guanren is free right now."
"Okay, please excuse me." Zhang Yan took back his paperwork with a smile, and then followed him into the Yamen.
As soon as you enter the door, the inside is not much better than it looks at the door, it is full of shabby appearance. However, there are many flowers and plants planted along the road, and they are all blooming beautifully.
Not far after entering, he stopped at the door of a public house.
"Master Wang, someone is here to register with military documents. Can I bring them in for you?"
