247 Ten Thousand Mountains, Twenty-Four
They stole a glance, then another at her lover, and exchanged a soft smile. In a swift movement, she leaped into his arms! He whispered, "Over there!" With his beloved in his embrace, following her guidance, they rode the clouds and soared through the void!
The green protective shield, at this moment, seemed like a miracle, still rotating steadily and rhythmically. With a unique rhythm, it slowly and gently devoured the surrounding spiritual energy, causing the energy in this world to continuously gather and then be slowly absorbed by it.
It's like a unique breathing process, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy and releasing vitality. Each rotation brings a subtle change. Seemingly insignificant, these changes accumulate over time and become incredibly significant.
The spiritual energy within the protective barrier grew increasingly dense, a symbol of vibrant life. It was as if life was wriggling within it, and new life was being nurtured. This abundant spiritual energy brought hope, anticipation, and a burgeoning power of life.
A vibrant atmosphere permeated every corner, and the creatures within could clearly feel the energy and vitality. It was an indescribable sense of joy, as if one were in a world full of energy and hope.
The green protective shield repairs everything as it rotates, seemingly showcasing the charm and mystery of nature to the world in a unique way, and also nurturing new life.
In the air, a guardian blade of energy, seemingly invisible yet powerful, slowly and subtly appeared, its formidable deterrent force enveloping a space of ten feet in radius, patiently and tirelessly accompanying the scene!
In the border city, Yun Su had already returned to the manor ahead of time, where she met up with the other women: Piao Miao Yue, Wei Lan, Jie Hua Yu, Bi Yun Yan, Tu Fang Hua, and Wei Qing Hui!
At this moment, time is busy and even faster. At this moment, the sky is not yet dark, but luxuriously, the lights are just coming on, the city is brightly lit, and it is bustling with activity!
Today, the border market is bustling with activity, but soon, once the city is built, the term "market" will become a thing of the past!
Above the marketplace, blood and qi surged, and slowly, a huge invisible aura began to form. It was slowly taking shape, but it was very fragile. Any slightly powerful evil spirit could easily break through it!
It is invisible and inaudible to ordinary people, but a sense of security, a genuine sense of security from the inside out, makes the people in the market feel at ease. It is very strange, but it arises from the bottom of their hearts!
Old Man Weng had already arranged for people to prepare cooked food, instructing his subordinates, "The cooked food is all ready. When the soldiers' families arrive, send them the food first, one serving per person. Make sure there's enough food."
Those around him nodded repeatedly, "It's all arranged. Dozens of large pots are steaming buns and mantou, and others are steaming rice and making rice balls. We guarantee there will be more than enough." They were so busy they barely had time to breathe, and then quickly went to make the arrangements.
Near the sergeant's assigned quarters, the aroma of tempting cooked food wafted through the air, growing stronger and stronger as the scent drew closer, causing the children to involuntarily swallow.
The fragrant oat buns have a soft and chewy outer layer with a subtle wheat aroma. One bite reveals a delicious filling made from natural oats, rich in flavor and slightly sweet, leaving a lingering aftertaste.
The golden-brown pancakes, covered with the caramelized aroma of the charring, have slightly curled edges that resemble ocean waves, giving them a lively and vibrant appearance. Inside, the pancakes are filled with soft, delicate sweet sugar, and the rich aroma of wheat instantly fills the mouth.
These rice balls, larger than the palm of your hand, are packed with unparalleled flavor. The pure, natural rice is firm and chewy, each grain brimming with the essence of hard work, offering a rich texture. At the center of the rice ball are fresh vegetables and a touch of minced meat sauce, adding a unique flavor that's sure to whet your appetite.
Steaming hot noodle soup offers a different flavor altogether. The noodles are as delicate as silk, soaking up the rich broth made with egg flowers and meat. It also comes with some side dishes, mainly pickled vegetables, topped with some greens.
The steaming hot cooked food smelled wonderful, but the queue was orderly and there was no chaos whatsoever. Everything began to get busy.
The procession began to separate quickly and orderly, with a very rhythmic pace, as the family members who followed also looked around at the surrounding environment.
The streets are laid out in a neat, square pattern, and the two-and-a-half-story buildings are orderly and well-maintained, with brand-new doors and windows featuring simple square latticeworkâclearly newly built. The pale white walls shimmer softly in the firelight, creating an atmosphere of serene tranquility.
The soldiers began to settle into their houses, one room per household. The lower floor had a simple hall, a side room, and a kitchen on one side. The houses were basically fully furnished, with brand-new red tables, wide red benches, washstands, brand-new beds, and even stoves! Everything looked like a wonderful beginning.
The room was half-filled with grain, mostly rice, with some corn and beans. There was also half a pile of firewood. The furnishings in each house were basically the same!
A bright moon shines over Chang'an, and the sound of ten thousand households pounding clothes fills the air! At this moment, some of the soldiers' families who had gone in earlier had already started to light their stoves, and bonfires began to rise.
Children who had followed them wandered around the living room of their new home, holding warm pancakes or rice balls, their faces beaming with joy. They curiously looked around the new house, observing every corner and admiring its unique decorations. While enjoying the delicious pancakes and rice balls, they slowly settled into the warmth of their new home.
At this moment, Elder Weng, Jin Luo, Jin Feng, Wei Si, and others were talking with the people in white and black, as well as Yun Shuni.
Old Man Weng said with a hint of weariness amidst his happiness, "It is truly a blessing for us generals to come to this barren land! If there is anything you need, or anything that I have overlooked, please just tell me, and I will provide it for you!"
Old Weng said earnestly and solemnly!
The military's status for adults is not something that Old Man Weng can fathom!
However, for them, following the will of the adults and entertaining everyone was their duty.
Since you trust me, I should naturally take care of such trivial matters for you. It's such a simple thing, why should I trouble you with such a thing?
Looking at the group of spirited and energetic young people before him, Steward Weng thought, "They are truly outstanding individuals! There are more and more outstanding people in this market town."
A fleeting sigh crossed my mind.
Dressed in white and black, Yun Shuni felt a surge of pride as she faced the welcoming crowds lining the streets.
Young people strive for fame and victory; who can be without a competitive spirit? Who doesn't have a stubborn heart?
