Chapter 275 Light and Darkness - Peng Lan Festival

"Sure enough, these demons have become part of my soul space. Uh-huh! It seems that I am not far from a breakthrough! It's a pity that the heart demon is still a little less!" After refining all the demons shot out of the dark curtain of death, Mu Yunfei actually felt very sorry. Everyone's changed heart demon has become an excellent tonic for Mu Yunfei's soul space. I'm afraid that this matter is unprecedented and there is no one to come. If it is spread out, I'm afraid no one will believe it. He actually feels a little less!

Muyun flew up and floated over Linyue City. His cold eyes looked at the previously lively city under his feet, but now it is dead. The city wrapped in the dark wall is not purified by light magic and is not suitable for human habitation.

"These people in the dark parliament slip quickly! However, you can escape from the monk, you can't escape from the temple, hum! After I kill Luo Liya, I will settle accounts with you and collude with demon practitioners to feed on people. All of them should be killed!"

After saying that, Mu Yun flew to the north to control the sky.

......

Blue Sky County in the Western Jin Dynasty is located in the south of the Western Jin Empire, bordering Jiuya and Nanhuai, especially Penglan, the county city of Blue Sky County, which is a must-have place for soldiers. Because of its special geographical location, Blue Sky County's commerce is extremely developed, and the tax revenue generated accounts for almost half of the Western Jin Empire. It can be said that it is the most important county among the thirteen counties of the Western Jin Dynasty!

Speaking of this Penglan City, I have to say the origin of the name of this city! Legend has it that 2,000 years ago, this place was just a small town without even a name. Because there were many small countries in the mainland and fought for years, and this town was an important place to connect the east, west, north and south, so the war never stopped. The town was built and destroyed once. After many names were given, there was no name, just like a place of death.

One year, a middle-aged man fled to this town with his wife and opened an inn called "Baorai" and settled down. I don't know if this inn was named well. A year later, the couple actually had a son and gave birth to a lovely baby. On the day of the baby, the sky and the earth were full of visions, and the originally clear sky suddenly flashed with lightning and thunder, so the baby was named Thunder!

Jinglei has been gifted since he was a child, capable of literature and martial arts. As an adult, he formed a mercenary regiment with some friends. With his super-S-level strength and outstanding strategy, he has become a force that cannot be ignored in the taboo continent. After nearly 30 years of hard work, he finally established a powerful empire that belongs to him!

That's right, this shocking thunder is Sima Jinglei, the founding emperor of the later Western Jin Dynasty!

Of course, if Guangguang builds a country, then Sima Jinglei's life is not a legend! That was the fifth year after Sima Jinglei became emperor, there was a rare large-scale drought in the Western Jin Dynasty. The earth cracked and there was no harvest! The surrounding countries saw the opportunity and joined forces to invade. Sima Jinglei's mother did not agree to live in the palace, but lived in the original town and guarded her husband's cemetery. Although she was protected by the guards, she was caught off guard and died in the chaos.

Sima Jinglei has super S-level strength. In the eyes of ordinary people, he is a god. After defeating various countries, he forcibly split the space with his unparalleled lightning power and is ready to rescue his mother from hell. However, the scene of hell stunned him. Those who died were all in the sword trees, either ploughing their tongues, or swallowing iron fire, some even boiling soup and cooking, and some of them were constantly beheaded by Ling Chi, and his mother was also among them.

Just when Sima Jinglei was at a loss, the god of hell appeared. He told Sima Jinglei that his strength alone was not enough. Only on February 30 every year, when at least 100,000 people were gathered together to make a wish for the dead, can his mother be separated. This suffering can be reborn as soon as possible, and at the same time, it can save others, so that they can also be protected from suffering and be happy for a hundred years.

After Sima Jinglei came back, he designated February 30 every year as the legal festival of the empire. On that day, the whole country worshipped the ancestors and died on the battlefield. In order to commemorate his mother, Sima Jinglei named this festival his mother Peng Lan, called Peng Lan Festival! In those days, the county town of Blue Sky County is now called Peng Lan City.

Although there is no way to determine whether this legend is true or false, Sima Jinglei's practice has indeed won the love of the people of the Western Jin Dynasty. For the dead, why is it a living person?

Today is February 28th, and two days later will be the Peng Lan Festival. Therefore, as the birthplace of the Peng Lan Festival, the whole city is carefully preparing for this prosperous era. Today's Peng Lan Festival is not only a memorial event, but also has many performances, such as singing and dancing, competitions, etc. The time has also changed from one day to seven days.

There is an inn in the east of Penglan City, called "Bao Lai", which is said to be opened by Sima Jinglei's parents! Of course, people who hear this statement only take it as a joke. For more than 2,000 years, not to mention the Baolai Inn, did the town disappear differently in those years?

Baolai Inn is the largest inn in Penglan City, covering a total area of about three mu, almost 2,000 square meters, with two houses in total, and the front house has two floors. The ground floor is specially used for meals, which is no different from ordinary restaurants and is full of Eight Immortals tables. This blue sky county is indeed a rich county, and there are a lot of people in the restaurant. It's not yet time for dinner, and it's full of people.

There is an elegant room on the second floor, which is specially prepared for people with status. Several of them have been contracted for many years. That is to say, no matter how much money you have, you don't have an identity. I'm sorry, you can only squeeze with others below.

As for the following building, there is no need to introduce more. Since it is called an inn, of course it is the guest room, but the guest room is also graded, with the difference between A, B and C. There are ten first-class rooms, located on the third floor of this back building. The environment is elegant, spacious and bright, and the view is wide. All the facilities in the room are very complete. You can almost see the whole city through the window. You need 1,000 or ten purple gold coins a day!

B-class room, on the second floor, has a total of 20 rooms. The layout of the room is not bad, but it is a little smaller. There is no study. Because it is the second floor, it can't overlook the whole city. Generally speaking, it is okay. It takes 100 gold coins to live in a day!

As for the C-class room, there are 40 rooms, a bed, a table, a stool, and nothing, but the price is much cheaper than the A and B rooms, and only ten silver coins a day! However, even if this third-class guest room is generally a businessman, ordinary people still can't afford to live there. Ten silver coins are equivalent to the income of an adult who has worked hard for a month!

Speaking of the shopkeeper of Baolai Inn, his surname is Liu, and everyone calls him Master Liu, but no one knows what his name is. Master Liu is also a famous figure in Peng Lancheng. Eight years ago, he suddenly appeared in Penglan City, throwing a lot of money, buying a big house in the east of the city, knocking it down and rebuilding the Baolai Inn.

Master Liu is in his fifties. He is not tall and looks very capable. He has got along very well with all the forces in Peng Lancheng for eight years. For example, in modern words, he is black and white! Master Liu is still a well-known good man. On the first day of each month, he gives some rice porridge and money to the poor people. Although he doesn't have much money, there are only more than a dozen copper coins, but the poor people thank him very much! To exaggerate, if Master Liu is in trouble, these people will never stand by. It can be said that in the hearts of the people of Penglan City, Baolai Inn is the same as the church of the Great Light Religion!

"Can I have a room?"

Master Liu was doing this month's account when suddenly someone screamed in his ear and shocked him. He was angry and was about to scold him. Suddenly, he found that there were hundreds of purple gold coins on the table. His originally frown unfolded in an instant and nodded hurriedly:

"Yes, there are, I don't know how many rooms this guest officer needs? How many days will you stay?

"Don't you see the two of us? Two rooms! Stay for three days first and store a lot of money as food!" The speaker was about 20 years old, holding a folding fan in his hand and wearing a white brocade robe. At first glance, he was a scholar. The prince looked quite handsome, but his voice was a little sharp, like a duck barking. Behind him was a man in his 40s, tall and burly, with a national face, thick sword eyebrows, and not angry. He was wearing a blue robe made of coarse cloth, with long hair casually wrapped around his back, and holding a thin and narrow knife full of gaps in his hand. Although the man did not turn, the hidden heroic spirit made People dare not look directly.

"Good! Mazi, take these two guest officers to Room 8 and Room 9!" Master Liu quickly completed the formalities for the two, and Xiao Er Mazi took him through the side door into the backyard.

What's the reason for these two people? On the surface, the prince should be the master, but why did he follow the man instead? It's really strange... Just as Master Liu was thinking nonsense, there was a sound in his ear again,

"Can I have a room?"

"Yes, there are, I don't know how many rooms this guest officer needs? How many days will you stay? Master Liu didn't even raise his head and subconsciously nodded and asked. He muttered to himself, what's wrong with this today? All the stores are like evil spirits.

"I said the shopkeeper, did you tell a joke? Didn't you see me alone? Do you still need two rooms?"

"..." Master Liu suddenly felt embarrassed and put away his mind. Then he looked up at the person. At this glance, his heart skipped somehow. In fact, the young man in front of him was not terrible. Except for the silver-white hair, he could be called a beautiful man, especially those dark and deep eyes, like a vast starry sky, as if If you look a few more times, you will fall into it. Master Liu has an illusion that with his strength, this young man can't make a move! No, he doesn't need a move. In front of this person, he can't raise the slightest fighting spirit.

"The shopkeeper, have you fallen to the ground? If not, I will change another one!"

Yes, of course! It's easy to be distracted when you are old. There is another room in the first-class room, ten purple gold coins a day! There are still six rooms in the second room, one purple gold coin a day!"

"I don't have purple gold coins and gold coins. I don't know if this can be counted as house money?"

The young man said and put half a fist-sized, crystal clear stone on the counter.

"Oh my God! This, this is..." Master Liu couldn't help exclaiming, but soon found that he was still in the inn. He quickly closed his voice and quickly took a rag on the table and covered the top-quality spiritual stone, but smiled awkwardly:

"I lost my composure, I lost my composure! Of course, this can calculate the house money, but if this top-grade spiritual stone is in the auction house, it can sell at least one million purple gold coins! Well, I can't give you any money, can I?"

"Then, just like the previous two, save the extra money in the cabinet first!"

Looking at the young man's indifferent appearance, Master Liu pondered for a moment and then said:

"Since the guest officer said so, all right! Do you think this is okay? I will help you get a VIP card for Bora Inn. In the future, as long as you take this card to any branch of our Bora Inn, you can get free food and accommodation! You can rest assured that not only the thirteen counties in the Western Jin Dynasty have our semicolons, even the neighboring nine cliffs and the glorious empire! Leave your name and it will be done in a day!" With a VIP card with millions of purple gold coins, even if you live in the first-class room of Baolai Inn every day and enjoy the best food, you can spend more than 200 years. Master Liu is indeed a businessman and smart enough!

"All right!" The young man took the pen and paper handed over by Master Liu and wrote down three big characters.

"Good! The dog took the guest officer to Room 10, Class A!" Seeing that the young man followed the dog into the side door, Master Liu looked at the name paper written by the young man.

"Ouyangmu! Is he Ouyangmu?"

The dog came back from the back yard. Master Liu was in a daze.

"Master Liu, I have arranged that man!"

"Hmm!" Master Liu came to his senses and said in a low voice, "According to the intelligence, this young man may be Ouyangmu, who won the first place in the forging competition at the alchemy conference a month ago!" I heard that he was recruited by the Holy See. You turn around and let your brothers keep an eye on him, but remember not to expose it! There is also a letter from the master, saying that the prince may come today. In the past three days, pay attention to the major forces in the city, especially the church. If they have any changes, inform the city lord's government to destroy them all!"

"Don't worry, Master Liu!" The dog also whispered, but turned to the kitchen.

Of course, Ouyang Mu is Mu Yunfei. At this moment, he is leaning on the edge of the window of the guest room and looks at the corner of the mouth of the side door in front of the courtyard with an intriguing smile.
