Although Lingzhi was talking to herself, she clearly noticed that Shen Yuan's expression was not very good, so she took the initiative to say: "If he is such a big devil, I think his character must not be good. Earlier he might have been There is something new about you, but after a long time, he will naturally become disgusted with you. If you stay around him, you might end up like those people."

At this point, Lingzhi was afraid that a gentle and kind person like Shen Yuan would not be able to make up his mind, so he said earnestly: "How much true love can a cold-blooded person like him have towards you?"

Shen Yuan said nothing and fell into deep thought.

Although it is hard to say whether these things were done by Xiao Xingyun, what Lingzhi said is indeed very reasonable.

How much truth is mixed in Xiao Xingyun's calculation against her?

Before the problem was clearly thought out, the carriage arrived at Prince Yu's Mansion.

Although Prince Yu's Mansion is located in the west, it is at the junction and is located in the rich Xiangcheng City. It was not affected by the Pingyang War at all.

There are many dazzling mansions standing there, glowing like palaces with thousands of bright waves. The splendid Prince Yu's Mansion stands in the city, with glazed tiles inlaid on the walls. The entire mansion is like a pearl embedded in the city.

Outside the prosperous mansion, there are many high-rise buildings and shops on both sides of the street. Walking through it is like entering a prosperous maze. The streets are spacious and flat, with lush trees swaying in the wind, pedestrians constantly coming and going, and noisy carriages and horses, creating a bustling scene.

In the bustling market, people in Xiangcheng wear gorgeous clothes, and their hairpin jewelry shines with charming brilliance. They talk to each other, laugh and laugh, making it very lively.

Lots of flowers blooming on the streets

You can see it everywhere at the end of the alley, colorful floats passing by, the fragrance is fragrant and intoxicating.

The aroma of delicious food wafted from the restaurant. People in Xiangcheng gathered around the table, toasting and drinking. The whole street was filled with laughter and laughter, giving it a rather heroic atmosphere.

The market is filled with a dazzling array of goods, such as silk, porcelain, jade, etc., which makes people dizzy, as if they are in a huge treasure house.

When Lingzhi got off the carriage, everyone was dumbfounded that Xiangcheng was so lively!

The attendant driving the carriage didn't say much. He just settled the two girls and went up to negotiate with the guards at the gate of the mansion.

At this time, Meng was carrying a wicker basket that was almost the same height as her. There were two quilts stuffed in the basket, and a dirty little girl was stuffed inside, sitting miserably on the street begging. The two looked very familiar. , then she mustered up the courage to step forward and stuffed half of the dried fruit into the two children in front of her with a smile. She looked left and right, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Is it...Ganoderma lucidum?" "

The two looked at her with dismay.

A feeling of warmth suddenly rose in Lingzhi's heart, and she said, "Aunt Meng?"

Hearing the child calling her, a sad smile appeared on the old woman's wrinkled face. She quickly stepped forward and patted the dust off the two of them, with tears streaming down her face: "It's really you!"

Meng looked at Shen Yuan distressedly and said, "Is this your brother's elixir? He is such a suffering body. He is always hungry, right?"

Perhaps because of meeting people from his hometown, all kinds of sadness and pain came to Ganzhi, and tears rolled in his eyes.

Lingzhi glanced at Shen Yuan, her eyes a little lonely: "Aunt Meng, he is not a panacea.

The elixir has..."

Before he could finish speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from the distance, followed by screams one after another.

The bad news happened so quickly, like an unsmooth transition in a drama, everything was so sudden that people were unprepared!

Shen Yuan raised his eyes in surprise and saw that in just a split second, arrows from the sky landed like meteorites on this bustling city just now.

More than 500 crossbow arrows were fired at the same time. The large stream of arrows blocked the sun like a giant black dragon, accompanied by an earth-shattering roar, as if the extreme north wind swept half of the city and the violent storm hit!

"Hurry and report to Prince Yu!" The guards of Prince Yu's Mansion were stunned and rushed into the mansion with a loud shout.

"Protect the special envoy!" More than a dozen young soldiers rushed out of the mansion. They lined up for defense in front of Lingzhi and Shen Yuan, blocking the three of them and building a dense human wall for them.

Not only was the crossbow arrows not like ordinary crossbow arrows, they were fired intermittently one by one, but they could even be fired continuously. The strength and speed were simply astonishing. It was similar to the rain of arrows that Shen Yuan had encountered in Huaqinlou. What a world of difference!

Under the volley of thousands of arrows, the black dragon composed of flexible and ferocious sword rain swept over like a roaring wind. Immediately, more than a dozen soldiers in front of Shen Yuan and his party were shot through ruthlessly, and their good human shields turned into hedgehogs. Legion, everyone's bodies began to twist strangely, and then they fell down in rows under the huge impact.

The soldier guarding Shen Yuan's left had already been hit by an arrow in his right arm. At this time, there was also an arrow stuck in his right arm. He saw

He looked very panicked, as if he had never expected someone to attack Prince Yu's palace. His eyeballs almost popped out, and he slashed desperately with his unskilled left hand, with a ferocious look on his face.

The soldier on Shen Yuan's right was so frightened that he roared loudly around him, as if he was being entangled by some monster, and blood even flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Living people fell to the ground, and the gray-white earth was stained red with blood.

The next moment, artillery fire roared and the clouds blocked the sun. Everything happened so fast that Shen Yuan didn't even react!

But Shen Yuan probably knew that the west side had fallen and the barbarians had already reached Xiangcheng.

Chen Yuan's mind suddenly flashed back to the time when the barbarians invaded Liaoyuan in his previous life.

At that time, the Shen family was temporarily withdrawn to defend the imperial city. They failed to anticipate the barbarian sneak attack. As a result, several cities in Liaoyuan were directly destroyed.

When Shen Yuan took the initiative to ask Ying to go to the post station on the border of Liaoyuan to receive survivors, Liaoyuan had turned into a sea of ​​fire.

There are people everywhere who are in ragged clothes, with beards, broken feet and hungry people. They are like sour and smelly water flowing from some black mountain, endlessly flowing over the mountains. At the border of Liaoyuan, the small inn suddenly turned into a refugee concentration camp. Many refugees were wailing on the cold steps in front of their houses, clamoring for food and insisting on lying on the doorstep for the night, insisting on waiting for their families to escape from the sea of ​​​​fire. Escape.

They were all old and useless men who evacuated under the protection of young and strong men from Liaoyuan. They could not believe that they had escaped because the barbarians were massacring the city.

They don't know where to go, their home has been

They no longer exist, and their children and relatives may have been buried in the sea of ​​​​fire. Most of them walked, with only a lucky few riding scrawny horses and mules. However, those beasts seemed to have been tortured to the point where they only had half their life left, and they might not be able to walk for long before they collapsed to the ground.

Shen Yuan understood very well that many things had changed. Maybe Liaoyuan would not fall in this life, but Liaoyuan's fate did not disappear. It fell firmly on Xiangcheng.
