When Yun Xiao walked out with Long Yin in hand, she saw him leaning on the spot in a daze, motionless. She was only slightly surprised. She walked over and patted her shoulder and said, "If you don't say hello, then we have to hurry up."

Time is running out, it’s getting dark. Just now Long Yin told me that the nearest rural abandonment road is within the Luo River. I remember that the Luo River originates from the Snowy Peak in Yudu, and seems to flow through Luocheng, the capital. Last time we went there

Yes, it’s not too far from the imperial capital.”

"Well." Xiao Qianye silently glanced at the dejected Long Yin who was following her, and explained without saying much, "Luo City is located along the Luo River. That's why it got its name. It's not just a flying place."

The capital of Yuan is also on many important trade roads in Dongming. It is considered the core city connecting Yudu and Dongming. Luo City has always been prosperous and has a large population. If you want to enter the Abandoned Village Road back to Xuhai from there, you still have to

Be careful not to be discovered by the soldiers stationed there."

"Then let's go over first and take advantage of the darkness to move." Yun Xiao held Long Yin with one hand and held him with the other. She blinked at him and said stubbornly, "Close your eyes quickly and don't peek."

"Okay." Xiao Qianye blurted out without hesitation, but Long Yin looked at him awkwardly, never expecting that he would actually close his eyes so obediently, Yun Xiao smiled quietly at her, that smile

There was a touch of unnoticeable sadness hidden inside, and he whispered, "Miss Long shouldn't be afraid, right?"

"I, what am I afraid of? It's not like I don't have my original body." Long Yin murmured in retort, her cheeks turned red for some reason. Yun Xiao nodded. Her fire was very bright and beautiful, but the light was blocked by her own powerful spiritual power.

, the wings of the imperial bird jumped from Wangyue Tower into the sky in an instant, so quietly that no trace was left. Long Yin nervously opened his hands as if he wanted to hug something, and found that his body was covered with flowing fire.

She was completely unable to do anything. At this moment, the flame next to her took the initiative to hug her and help her stabilize her shaking body.

After a while, several people flew away from the Imperial City and finally arrived at the Luo River at dusk. On the left side of the river was the rich Luo City, with many merchant ships docked and patrolling soldiers everywhere.

Even three-winged birds will be circling in the sky.

Yun Xiao looked at the brightly lit city across the river and asked curiously: "It seems different from the last time we came here!"

Xiao Qianye nodded, pointed at Luo City and said: "The place we visited last time was to the south of the city. The vast plain outside is the temporary landing point for caravans waiting to be inspected. This side is to the west of the city, where there are river ports. Luohe River

Originating from the Daxue Peak of the Demonic Mountain, it passes through Yudu and flows through Luocheng. If it continues southward, it will be blocked by a mountain near Dongming. Then it will turn eastward and finally merge into the East China Sea basin. However, it

There is a tributary very close to the Li River, one of the three rivers in the East Ming Dynasty. Many years ago, an emperor ordered the two rivers to be connected and a special channel was built. From then on, the trade routes between the two realms were completely connected."

Yun Xiao and Long Yin both looked at him with their eyes open and confused. Xiao Qianye pursed his lips in embarrassment. The reason why he talked about these things seemed to be just out of some instinct. After all, Feiyuan's environment had long been

It was deeply ingrained in his mind that he knew the direction of the mountains, rivers and rivers without the help of any map, but he also realized that neither Yun Xiao, who was born in the Central Plains, nor Long Yin, who came from the Xuhai Sea, could accurately describe it.

Want to understand the terrain of Feiyuan.

"Oh..." Yun Xiao still responded in a decent manner, and couldn't help but feel funny seeing how serious he looked.

Long Yin didn't react at all. He looked at the steady flow of the Luo River and said lightly as if he was remembering something, "There is indeed an abandoned rural road in the Luo River, but there is also a waterway for black market smuggling under the water. Did you know?

Know?"

"I know." Xiao Qianye's expression was as cold as ice and snow, and he didn't even move his brows when faced with such an obscure matter. Long Yin was a little surprised, and he continued hesitantly, "You know? No, right?

Weren't you the master of the Military Pavilion, one of the three pavilions before? Even if you know this kind of thing, you don't care?"

"If you don't cause trouble, I won't care." Xiao Qianye answered the words without hesitation for a second, and suddenly couldn't help laughing evilly, and sighed, "The flow of the Luo River is stable, suitable for ships to transport goods, but the trade routes passing by are all in the mirror.

Within the jurisdiction of the Pavilion, this has resulted in many gray transactions that cannot be carried out through normal channels, so things like underwater private channels have emerged. Have you heard of such things as 'water avoidance pills'? After taking them, you can go underwater

Breathing, most smugglers always have that kind of thing on them, and that thing... is actually sold by Mirror Pavilion."

Long Yin looked at him in disbelief. Although disgust could not be suppressed from his eyebrows, his expression was always so calm, and he did not shy away from this shameful business of collusion between officials and businessmen at all. He replied calmly: "Fei Yuan

The black market is widespread, and the sea market carried on the back of the giant turtle in North Shore City is just one of them. To be honest, from the ocean to the river, from the mountains to the desert, and even in the uninhabited snowfields, the black market

Their tentacles are everywhere, but they have to hand over countless rare treasures and gold and silver jewelry to Mirror Pavilion every year. As long as they don't cause anger and resentment, no one will care."

"Isn't it outrageous enough that they are selling people?" Long Yin retorted sharply, raising his eyebrows and sneering, "The underwater private road and the abandoned rural road are very close to each other. I often go out quietly to purchase supplies for my tribe, and I have bumped into human traffickers several times.

Even if you capture the mermaid tribe and sell them, you don’t care?”

Xiao Qianye and her looked at each other, neither of them willing to back down, reminding her every word: "Before Emperor Tianzun, it was not illegal to sell aliens."

"You... you bastard!" Long Yin was so angry that he cursed and muttered for a while. Xiao Qianye ignored her and walked to the river alone. Yun Xiao followed him worriedly and asked in a low voice,

"Don't worry, I know there are many things you can't control if you want to..."

"I didn't want to care about it." Xiao Qianye smiled bitterly and told Yun Xiao his true thoughts without any concealment, "A Xiao, although Master has taught me since I was a child that I should 'help the world with compassion',

But I actually never took this sentence to heart. I have been the master of the military pavilion for eight years. I have seen countless dirty transactions. Selling aliens is really not a big deal. There are more murders.

It’s a bloodless thing. When I think about it now, I just feel that I’m so ridiculous. I’m obviously not a good person. I actually abandoned my glory and wealth to save Fei Yuan. I really don’t understand. Do you think I’m obsessed with ghosts? Otherwise, I

Why would such a person do such an unreasonable thing?"

"You are not possessed by ghosts..." Yun Xiao held his hand, her eyes were shining brightly, and there was a strange impulse in her heart, which made her blurt out without thinking, "You are possessed by me.

Heart aperture."

As soon as the words fell, the two of them stayed together for a moment. Yun Xiao lowered his head in a second and his face turned red. What happened... How could he say such words without shame? Could it really be the memories and memories of those twenty years?

The experience was so dazzling that she couldn't help but tell that girl's thoughts?

I really like him... The person who has been annihilated to ashes in the fire really likes him. Such strong feelings can actually make the fire that has existed for thousands of years also feel the heartbeat.

The moment she regained her original form, she thought that she was no longer the weak girl. Why did she feel that she had never changed at all when facing this person?

Xiao Qianye also looked at her with great joy. It was not a day or two before Yun Xiao liked to tease him, but he had never seen such a momentary flushing look on the other person's face, which made him feel sad in his heart.

Invisible ripples were set off, and while the two were silent, only Long Yin was wringing his hands in embarrassment and bewilderment beside him, still hesitating whether he should go over and urge her so uncomprehendingly, she thought over and over again, and caught a glimpse of

The setting sun had slowly submerged into the horizon, so he forced himself to cough a few times and muttered: "Do you still want to go to Xuhai?"

"I want it, of course I want it." Yun Xiao quickly ran away from him, waving her hand fan to blow the wind on her red cheeks. Long Yin silently glanced at the two of them, and finally walked to the river without saying a word.

, just as she was reciting the spell to open the Abandoned Home Road, a string of bubbles suddenly appeared under the water for no reason. It seemed that something strange was approaching from the deeper water, and Xiao Qianye was right next to her.

Seeing that something was wrong, someone beside her immediately pulled her back. Almost at the same time, the water flow rushed out like a pillar and hit the grass by the river!

What is it! Long Yin stared dumbfounded at the figures on the ground five meters away. There were four people in the group, short and lean, carrying a tightly tied linen bag. They were holding on to each corner, and they took off their clothes in unison.

Wearing a special outer layer of waterproof clothing, I didn't notice that there were other people on the Luohe River at this time, so I immediately nervously checked the pockets for damage.

"Wow...mouse?" Yun Xiao blinked, or out of a bird's instinct, she couldn't help but move closer. Her steps were very light and fast. Even Xiao Qianye didn't react.

Curious, he squatted next to the sack and poked it with his fingers, asking, "What is this?"

"Who are you?" The four of them were startled by her. You must know that the lemmings are famous for their keen sense of smell. This is why they have a special position in the black market full of talents. How come there are so many good people around them suddenly?

In a girl's house, the four of them didn't feel anything at all?

Long Yin almost laughed out loud while holding it in, and a strange idea suddenly came to his mind - it was just a bird after all.

Before she could cover her mouth, she felt Xiao Qianye's displeased glare behind her, and then she quickly corrected her attitude. The lemmings looked at her with big eyes and small eyes.

, I felt an inexplicable panic from the bottom of my heart for no reason, like some kind of natural restraint, and even my voice was out of tune: "Hey, who are you? What are you doing here at the Luohe River at such a late night? You don't

Do you know that this area is the territory of the Five Rats?"

"Five rats?" Yun Xiao looked at them curiously, turned to Xiao Qianye and asked, "What is that?"

The lemmings followed her gaze and looked over. Suddenly, their cheeks turned pale and they were sweating profusely. Xiao Qianye frowned and thought for a moment before replying: "They say there are snakes and rats in a nest, but the five rats are actually fighting the five snakes in Yangchuan."

They are black market dealers who do some illegal business under the guise of others. They usually only do small things and cheat, but they don't make a big deal. Even Mirror Pavilion doesn't bother to care about them."

"Is that so..." Yun Xiao muttered, continuing to look at the linen bag and asking, "What's in it?"

"Oh my god! It's Pavilion Master Xiao! Boss, run!" Lemmings had no time to answer her question. The four of them dispersed in a hurry and prepared to jump into the Luo River. Xiao Qianye's hand drew a sharp arrow from the ancient dust.

The sword energy instantly blocked the escape route of several people, and they scolded coldly, "Don't you know how to respond properly?"

"Yes...yes..." The four of them looked at each other, hugged each other with stern looks, and flattered each other angrily, "We are just delivering goods! We are only responsible for delivering the goods bought by Mr. Mu in the city, hand-in-hand.

The money was delivered right away, and I definitely didn’t do any other bad things!”

"Master Mu?" Xiao Qianye thought for a moment and his face changed drastically. Could it be the old city lord, Mu Yun's father Mu Hao?

Yun Xiao held a corner of the linen bag with one hand, and her extraordinary sensitivity made her feel something strange. The moment she cut the bag with a knife, the light blue powder was blown all over the sky by the wind by the river.

Feiwu, the lemming covered his nose in fear, and did not forget to curse: "You are crazy! This is Wenwen Township, do you know how much it costs to buy this bag! You actually, actually..."

Before she finished speaking, the four of them had been tied up with flames by Yun Xiao and thrown directly into the water. Her fire light chased the flying powder and burned them all in an instant. When she turned her head, she saw Xiao Qianye looking at Luo on the other side with a worried look on his face.
