Chapter 68: Back to Dongling City

"Xianjun?!" Lin Xiaocha called out.

At this time, the rune gate had disappeared out of thin air.

The scene in front of her was familiar but unfamiliar. First, there were the hustle and bustle of cultivators walking on the road with their magical instruments.

Then, there is a noodle stall on the side of the road. It has the word "noodle" embroidered on the cloth flag that has lost its color due to wind and rain.

A few buzzing flies surrounded the meat hanging on the shop.

This place is the Ten Thousand Demon Forest entrance that Lin Xiaocha and Han Yu passed two years ago.

He really sent her here.

Lin Xiaocha, who just drank the spiritual bamboo water, was not hungry at all at this time, but she still walked into the shop.

Two years ago, she used the meat the noodle shop owner gave her to tease Jin Zhifeng.

The Boss is still that same Boss, but his back is a lot rickety. He is quite old but without the impatient appearance at the time. His whole person looked dejected.

"Boss, one noodle and two pieces of meat."

He felt that Lin Xiaocha was very familiar, but he couldn't remember who she was.

And Lin Xiaocha slowly ate the noodles in the bowl. She remembered that Han Yu was afraid she would break her stomach at that time and took her bowl away. The Boss sat on the floor and charged 300 Zhu Yun coins for a bowl of noodles. He didn't frown.

She remembered what Han Yu said just now, whether it was her two years ago or who she is now, he likes it?

How could there be people who like liars in the world? Was his brain not working well, or was it his eyes that were not working well?

Her eyes turned red when she thought of this, and a tear fell into the soup bowl.

At this time, an exclamation frightened her back to drop a second tear, "Xiaocha Girl!"

Lin Xiaocha wiped her eyes with the back of her hand and said with a smile, "The boss really has a good memory."

But she didn't expect the Boss to kneel down suddenly. Lin Xiaocha hurried to help him up. "What's wrong with you?"

"Xiaocha girl, I heard that you have a dragon as a spirit beast. Now it is rumored that you are the chosen daughter of heaven, a sign of auspiciousness, that you can... can..."

Start a dynasty that can replace Feng Nanfei.

The rumor first came from Banxia, ​​Jinjue, and Dongling City. At that time, it was only to prevent Feng Nanfei from using rumors to kill Lin Xiaocha, but after Shang Yuan's handwriting, it became like this.

No matter what, Lin Xiaocha never cared about these things. She has no big ambitions, only a small goal to earn one hundred million early.

She helped the Boss up, "Boss, don't say that. I don't know where the dragon went."

Lin Xiaocha suspected that Shang Yuan had killed the Demon King and ate the Demon core, and her silver dragon had seen some clues. So he was so disgusted with Shang Yuan, but she insisted on marrying Shang Yuan, which hurt his heart, and made him left her in anger.

The boss was infinitely disappointed. Finally, he sat aside and sighed—The world under the Feng family rule was so sad.

Lin Xiaocha put down her chopsticks and couldn't eat anything. She just wanted to go to Shang Yuan to fulfill Lin Wu's wish, no longer caring about the world's grievances.

She was such a cold and hypocritical woman. She really didn't know what Han Yu liked about her.

But at this moment, a mighty team came out of the Ten Thousand Demon Forest. The boss said weakly that for the grand opening of the Vermillion Bird Terrace, Feng Ziying personally went to the Ten Thousand Demon Forest to hunt demons to sacrifice to the Vermillion Bird. He was sighing while talking.

Lin Xiaocha heard the roar of the demon beast hissing his lungs in the cage from a distance.

As the boss sighed while explaining, Lin Xiaocha realized that Feng Nanfei used not only demons but also living people to worship Vermillion Bird.

The daughter of the noodle shop owner's neighbor's house was captured and chosen as a sacrifice. He said that the girl was clever and filial. She was only fourteen years old. The whole village was watching her grow up, and he was talking with tears.

Lin Xiaocha couldn't do anything but sympathize with them. She didn't want to see Feng Ziying, so she lowered her head and pretended that she didn't know anything and didn't see anything.

The black-armored guards and Feng Ziying's chariots drove slowly towards him. After a while, the boss was dragged out by a black armored guard.

It seems that his complaints of the human sacrifice caught the attention of the flatterers around Feng Ziying, and it was passed into Feng Ziying's ears. At this moment, Feng Ziying passed by the noodle restaurant.

The carriage stopped. Through the tent, she saw the figure with the tall hair crown waving in the carriage and said in a cold voice, "Keep him and that demon together."

In the cage is a hysterical wolf demon. Once the noodle shop owner entered the cage, he will be torn to pieces by the crazy wolf demon.

The boss was very stiff. The guards escorted him in without saying a word, but his two bent legs trembled.

Lin Xiaocha, who had been bowing her head, finally walked out and said, "Wait."

The guard pushed her away, "Bold! How dare you stop us!"

Lin Xiaocha stepped back and yelled softly, "City Lord, it's Xiaocha."

She saw that the curtain was lifted, and Feng Ziying got out of the car.

"Why are you... here?"

Seeing her alone, Feng Ziying was overjoyed. But he didn't show any expression on his face. Instead, he walked towards her, kicked the guard who pushed her away until he spouted a mouthful of blood.

"Dog things without eyes," he scolded.

Lin Xiaocha looked at the boss who was being escorted to the wolf demon cage, "City Lord~"

Feng Ziying said, "I know you are kind. Send him away." So he motioned to the guard to let the noodle shop owner go and then hugged Lin Xiaocha to his carriage and walked away.

Feng Ziying called his panther out of the carriage and let Lin Xiaocha sit next to him.

"When I first saw you, I felt that you were different. I didn't expect you to be the only daughter of the city lord of Banxia..." He wanted to ask more, such as why she didn't identify herself to him. But Lin Xiaocha just looked at the carriage in melancholy.

The matter of Han Yu snatched the bride, the Tianyu Mountain, and Banxia City had suppressed it. Of course, the ordinary people didn't know, but how could Feng Ziying not know?

"What happened on your wedding day..."

What happened that day was unbelievable. He would never believe it if it hadn't been for the report by his spy planted in Tianyu Mountain.

A woman was taken away on the day of her wedding. What happened next was unavoidable.

With tears in Lin Xiaocha's eyes, she said, "How did I not know that Shang Yuan was a demon?"

She looked very sad.

Feng Ziying: "That Han Yu..."

Lin Xiaocha: "He just looked after me and feared that I would go astray and forcibly prevented this tragedy."

Then she sighed deeply, "It's hard work for him."

"Then, during the time, you disappeared..." What did you do alone for so many days?

"Naturally, following him calmly to seek enlightenment, what else can I do?" Lin Xiaocha looked at Feng Ziying with a pair of incomparably clear, worldly ignorant eyes.

Feng Ziying squinted his phoenix eyes and listened to Lin Xiaocha sighed, "I don't expect Han Yu to look cold, but still cares about righteousness and remembered the little acquaintance in the past. He had always said that unmarried males and females should not be so close and told me not to indulge in childish love."

After she spoke, she pulled aside the curtain, looked at the scenery outside, and said faintly, "He really a good human being when you look at it."

Feng Ziying didn't believe it in half a word. But even though he didn't like Han Yu, the whole Zhu Yun country knew his character, and he wouldn't do such a ridiculous thing.

If he knew that Shang Yuan is a demon and wanted to save Lin Xiaocha from the fire pit, this reason is more reasonable than he lost his mind because of love and robbed his nephew's bride.

In this way, it seemed that he was a gentleman with the action of a villain.

When he thought about this and looked at the beautiful person in his carriage, his eyes were dark, and he instantly threw her under him. He let her run away two years ago, but now she finally fell into his own hands. This is God's will.

"What is City Lord doing?" Lin Xiaocha panicked.

"A man keeps a woman by his side. Why do you think it is?" His luxurious brocade clothes hung on Lin Xiaocha.

"City Lord, I am the only daughter of City Lord Banxia and the only one who owned a dragon in the Zhu Yun country. Would you actually humiliate me like this?" Lin Xiaocha was stern, showing a completely different aura from all over her body.

At this time, Feng Ziying suddenly became sober. Indeed, she was no longer a refugee but the treasure held by the city lord of Banxia. Moreover, even if her dragon was just broken out of its shell, it was more than his eight hundred-year-old black panther. Who knows how powerful it is.

Thinking of this, he got up reluctantly and said, "Ziying is rude." Then, after adjusting his high hair crown, he said, "The main reason is that I missed you for too long, and my love couldn't be controlled."

But Lin Xiaocha looked scared, her eyes flushed, and she looked wronged.

Feng Ziying has been around the block for such a long period of time. All girls who are so scared are those girls who have not accepted the rain and dew. It seems that she did not lie before. He felt a little bit of love and pity in his heart.

"Xiaocha, Ziying is willing to go to your house to beg for marriage. I will marry you upright."

But Lin Xiaocha raised her head aggrievedly, "I've been married to Shang Yuan. So I would not bother City Lord."

"Ziying doesn't care about this." With her identity and her dragon, even if she remarries ten times, people would be rushing to marry her. It seemed that for the first time in his life, he really wanted a woman so much.

Lin Xiaocha lowered her eyelashes and said in a very thin voice, "I didn't expect that the person who treats Xiaocha best is City Lord. Xiaocha really didn't misunderstand you."

A smile appeared on Feng Ziying's cold face.

When Lin Xiaocha wanted to get rid of him and go to the Ten Thousand Demon Forest to find Shang Yuan, Feng Ziying asked, "Where is your dragon?"

"Hidden in the Ten Thousand Demon Forest." Lin Xiaocha answered without hesitation.

Feng Ziying went to the Ten Thousand Demon Forest this time to hunt and found that the demon-fighting inside was serious and extremely chaotic. Moreover, now that it was the twilight, the inside is even more dangerous, so he said to Lin Xiaocha, "I will go with you in another day."

Lin Xiaocha watched the sunset. She thought of the giant beasts in the Ten Thousand Demon Forest and agreed to Feng Ziying's proposal.

The Dongling City was still covered with a gray and lifeless appearance. The land was barren, and villages were dilapidated. It could be seen that Feng Ziying was not a qualified city lord. It was said that Feng Nanfei forcibly sent the former city lord to death and let Feng Ziying take the position.

The most majestic part of Dongling City is the towering Vermillion Bird Terrace with a burning totem. It was the legendary picture of Vermillion Bird when he authorized the Phoenix to take over Zhu Yun country.

"Xiaocha, because of your proposal, I asked the refugees to build the Vermilion Terrace and doubled the size. Do you think it is spectacular?"

"Spectacular, the city lord is great." Zhu Yun country's admiration for the Vermillion Bird surpassed Lin Xiaocha's imagination, but she didn't care about it, and she didn't even have any interest in this Vermillion Bird Terrace.

There is no record that anyone has actually seen Vermillion Bird, so Lin Xiaocha is still skeptical whether Vermillion Bird really exists. However, if it did exist, and he chose the Phoenix to manage a country. Obviously, its eyes were not very good, and its brain might have some problems.

It is said that the brain capacity of birds is very small, so it seems that there is nothing wrong with this saying.

Feng Ziying was very satisfied with Lin Xiaocha's praise. Her praise seemed to come from the heart, and her eyes were filled with surprise and joy.

"The Vermillion Bird Terrace has been completed. When the time comes, Her Majesty the Empress will be here to attend the sacrifice."

Lin Xiaocha suddenly remembered the girl that the noodle shop owner was talking about.

"Does the sacrifice require a human sacrifice?"

Feng Ziying smiled and said, "Major sacrifices must be both humans and animals."

"Is this what the Vermillion Bird mean?"

"The meaning of phoenix is ​​naturally the meaning of Vermillion Bird."

Feng Ziying carefully helped Lin Xiaocha to dismount. Then, Lin Xiaocha saw General Zuo, who taught her horse riding at the city gate. He was surprised to see Lin Xiaocha, and Lin Xiaocha nodded to him.

Soon news of Lin Xiaocha's return to the city spread across the streets. The city residents and refugees scrambled to see her.

"This is the girl who volunteered to be a sacrifice two years ago!"

"It was the refugees she proposed to build the Vermillion Terrace! She made the homeless refugees spend two winters in peace!"

"The padded jacket on my body was the one she asked General Zuo to give us."

"She has a dragon in the legend! Real dragon!"

"I think she was the one chosen by Vermillion Bird."

"Shhh! This kind of nonsense is going to get your head off."

Feng Ziying took Lin Xiaocha up the city wall and looked at the crowd below who looked up at her.

"They all admire you." Feng Ziying turned around to look at Lin Xiaocha, "Do you want to build a peaceful and prosperous world with me?"

Lin Xiaocha looked at Feng Ziying, "City Lord, what are you talking about? Xiaocha doesn't understand."

Feng Ziying bent down and leaned in her ear, "During the sacrifices, I will assassinate Feng Nanfei and make you the new Empress."
