Xia Xiao found some green and red peppers, and under the light of candles, he chopped them up, stir-fried them with a little oil, added some mellow old soy sauce and spices, and then he had completed the simple hot sauce.

Xia Xiao and Azhu took a big gulp of a large bowl of white rice with some flavorful hot sauce. Amidst the slight choking sensation, a surge of spiciness and heat that rushed to their brains made them extremely satisfied as they looked up at the stars on a cool summer night. They chewed the rice in big mouthfuls, enjoying the wonderful pleasure of the chili rolling between their teeth and tongue.

Because it was hot and spicy, they always took a deep breath and had tears in the corners of their eyes, but this was the only way to enjoy it. All the tiredness of the day disappeared without a trace left.

The maid of the city lord's mansion was surprised to see the two adults sitting on the steps in front of the door, eating like common people. But she just walked in quietly, put down a pot of flower tea and left in a hurry. Maybe this is the highest realm of the big men, how can a vulgar person like her understand?

The maid didn't know that being casual was the highest state, just like Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu, who found this remote room, and like many people, the kitchen and bed were only a few meters away, but they were still happy. As long as the spiritual world is rich, the constraints of the flesh will become a false thing, because nothing can stop it.

Perhaps it was because the people had resumed their normal farming and had been too busy during the day, that Luo City was extremely quiet at this moment, with only the rhythm of the twinkling stars and the faint sounds of the two people chewing.

"How is it? Is it delicious?"

Ah Zhu kept nodding, sticking out her red tongue, looking particularly cute under the candlelight. Seeing this, Xia Xiao poured her some water and took her bowl and ran into the house.

"I'll give you some rice."

"Thanks."

Ah Zhu gulped down the scented tea, but the spiciness didn't reduce at all. Instead, it felt even spicier because of the warmth of the tea. Seeing this, Xia Xiao laughed and suggested:

"Take a break before eating."

"No, it will get spicy if I stop, I want to keep eating!"

Ah Zhu rolled up his sleeves and, with the momentum of swallowing mountains and rivers, he picked up the rice and chili sauce in the bowl. When he mixed it well, the fragrance was so fragrant that it permeated his heart and spleen. This kind of taste was not found in the beast tribe, and it simply satisfied Ah Zhu's taste buds and stomach. When the bowl was empty, only some chili seeds were left.

With a light burp, Ah Zhu said she was full, and then she completely forgot about the so-called health-preserving rules and leaned on Xia Xiao. She had always lived an easy life, and she didn't care about not eating too much at night, not eating too spicy food, and not drinking too much cold water, because she felt that being in a good mood was the only way to live forever.

Xia Xiao wiped Ah Zhu's mouth, put the dishes aside, and held her to look at the stars. Unfortunately, there was no moon in the sky, otherwise it would have been a nice view.

It was unknown how long it had passed before Xia Xiao woke up. He carried Azhu into the house, tidied up the room, and when he breathed a sigh of relief, he sat cross-legged at the door and formed seals to absorb the vital energy.

Xia Xiao's goal is to break through the shackles of the wilderness and stand shoulder to shoulder with Ah Zhu. Although it is still a long way to go, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and a river is formed by the accumulation of small streams.

There are still too few people like Ah Zhu, so Xia Xiao worked harder and couldn't fall behind too much, lest he couldn't help Ah Zhu when she was in danger in the future. Ah Zhu didn't have the habit of getting up at night, and when she woke up, the room was clean and Ah Zhu was practicing not far away, which made her feel very happy and she also sighed that the sun was so bright today.

Basking in the sun and enjoying the warmth, Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu were like an old couple who had experienced the vicissitudes of life. When they were really bored, they looked at each other and said:

"Go take a look outside the city?"

"Walk!"

Ah Zhu slapped his chair and stood up. Xia Xiao hugged him and jumped onto the wall of Luocheng. Outside, countless people were farming. Because Xia Xiao was in the city, they didn't have to worry about thieves in their homes, let alone others stealing their crops. So they worked extra hard, and even the whole family was in the fields. Seeing this hardworking scene, Xia Xiao said to Ah Zhu:

"Everything will be fine."

"Well, I believe you!"

If we want to get better, what we did yesterday is obviously not enough. At noon today, when Xia Xiao was helping many fields that needed water, the city lord's men came running over and said:

"Lord Xia Xiao, there is news coming from the surrounding towns and villages. I hope you can handle it."

"Okay, got it."

After Xia Xiao, Azhu was still there, so he used his own energy to control the water in the distant river to be drawn here.

Ah Zhu Zhimao's peak state was not considered strong in the world of practitioners, but now everyone was stunned. I guess this is what it means when things are rare, they are valuable!

In the City Lord's Mansion, Xia Xiao descended from the sky, stood outside the study, and pushed the door open, as naturally as if he was entering his own home.

"Master, your life is over."

Wang Chengzhu looked at the letters on the table and frowned. There must be at least a hundred of them, so many, and each one was bulging, making his eyes hurt and his head swell before he even read them.

"You didn't deliberately find so many people to bother me, did you?"

Xia Xiao's question frightened Wang Chengzhu, and he quickly explained:

"Master, you misunderstood. How could I do such a thing? You should hurry up and deal with it!"

Wang Chengzhu dodged after he finished speaking. He did nothing this time. If he was misunderstood by Xia Xiao and was caught by the vines and beaten with dozens of whips, he would not be able to bear it.

Xia Xiao was just joking and didn't take it seriously. When no one was in the study, he opened the first letter and saw that the content was not as complicated as he thought. It just asked about some details of the war and the future of Daxia.

When his fingers moved, the inkstone was already sharpened, and the brush moved with it, writing beautiful words. Regarding the war, Xia Xiao wrote according to the truth, but regarding the future of Daxia, he could only put forward a very bold fantasy, that is, after the Great Wilderness was stabilized, he would choose another master. But he could not become the new emperor as written in the letter, because he was not interested in it.

Regarding this aspect, Xia Xiao answered very seriously. It was probably that although the future of Da Xia was hidden in the fog, only by taking every step in the present well, the future would not deviate too much from stability.

Xia Xiao wrote this truth many times, because the content of many letters was the same, but because his thoughts were different each time, the organization of the words was different.

The words written by Xia Xiao using his vital energy to drag the brush look better, but he gets tired of writing too much. However, when he sees the letter on the table, he can't help but smile, because there is still a large part that has not been dealt with.

What a pity!

Xia Xiao sighed, it would be great if his clone could also be conscious, but he had to do all these things by himself, and even Xiao Ran, who was relatively well-educated, couldn't give him the response he wanted.

At this time, the space around him was buzzing. Xia Xiao took the opportunity to stand up and walked to the yard. While he was forming a seal, he heard someone from the other end of the talisman formation complaining:

"I shouldn't have listened to you and asked people from the surrounding villages to write letters! Do you know how many letters I received? Seventy-eight! Each letter was at least four pages long. I am convinced. Are you Daxia people so opinionated?"

Xiao Na was very angry because she had to go back. Xia Xiao had no choice but to persuade:

"You're good. I've sent you one hundred and three letters, but you have to reply!"

"The main thing is that I don't understand. A lot of the words are very flowery, like "I bow again", "I'm sad that my husband has betrayed me", "I'll briefly state my ignorance", "I bow again". Do you think a little crow like me can understand these?"

"I can see that you didn't pay attention in class. When we were in Class 9 at the foot of the mountain, Senior Mother Star Dragon always liked to tell you and Tianming about it."

“I didn’t learn that either.”

"Find an old gentleman and ask him to translate for you."

"It's really troublesome. You can talk, but why can't you write properly?"

“The way a scholar writes a letter is naturally different.”

Xia Xiao persuaded him a few times and then put away the talisman array. But soon, he heard similar news from another person, and was annoyed and scratched his head, but he had no choice but to continue to reply. In fact, many letters were unnecessary because the content was mostly repeated, so he wrote a letter in the letter. Next time he had a question or difficulty, he could just write a letter for each place, which was more efficient.

If Xia Xiao met those people in person, he would definitely lose his temper, but now he was still relatively patient. When he handed the reply letter to Wang Chengzhu, his brain was so hot that he didn't forget to remind him:

"One letter per place, no more than one. Damn it, do you really treat me as a tool?"

After Xia Xiao cursed a few times, he couldn't help sweating when he thought of the documents that the emperor had to deal with every day. He thought it was wishful thinking to let him be the emperor! He didn't think it was good for him. Even if he trusted him, he couldn't hurt him like that. If he really became the emperor, he would probably lose his life.

Wang Chengzhu saw that Xia Xiao was really angry in his words, so he immediately conveyed his meaning and repeatedly reminded Xia Xiao to convey his words, not wanting to make mistakes and be misunderstood. Xia Xiao is now the god of Luocheng, controlling everything. Others can say no, but he, Wang Chengzhu, can't, because he dare not, because the impression he left on Xia Xiao is too bad!

With his hands swung, Xia Xiao went to find Ah Zhu and walked with her in the towns around Luocheng. He felt more and more that the disaster would become a memory of the past, because the current world was recovering at an astonishing speed. And this process could be accelerated with just a little effort.

In this tense and orderly rhythm, four days passed in the blink of an eye.

In Daxia, the new order had just been spread to every place, and Nanshang and Tianmeng were no different from before, and the other beastmen who went there were also the most relaxed. But in Goulongbang's side, several gangs were fighting openly and secretly in the country. Tianming tried every way to intervene, but it didn't have a good effect, which made Xia Xiao very distressed. When the latter heard Tianming say "Hey", he cursed angrily:

"You are the king of the wild beast forest in the future, can you be a little more ruthless? Some people go too far, they should be killed, don't you hate humans? The Goulongbang clan has killed a lot of wild beasts, deal with them quickly, don't bother me all the time, I haven't solved the problems here, it's really annoying every day!"

Xia Xiao never showed mercy to Tianming, but at this moment, a voice of great astonishment came from the side of the talisman formation, saying:

"I came to the Northern Great Wall today. The situation here is somewhat special."

"What's the meaning?"

Xia Xiao didn't know what Tianming saw over there, but he didn't want to play with him at all. Instead, he was stunned for a long time. After Xia Xiao repeatedly questioned him, he said:

"There's a lot of demonic energy here, and I don't know where it comes from!"
