352 Please embark on your journey, Part Two
If you don't seize the opportunity to cultivate now, you'll have no choice but to face monsters and ghosts in the future.
For those without qualifications, a busy day officially begins. Their eyes aren't as rigid as last year's; at least there's something to look forward to.
The young ladies, as well as the teenagers, were filled with laughter and joy, their eyes filled with longing as they gazed at the patrols or soldiers returning home at night outside the city.
Clad in full armor, wearing black or brown boots, and wielding long spears—not wooden spears with iron tips, but real, fist-sized iron spears that they couldn't lift.
Wearing a full suit of armor, movement would probably be difficult, but at this moment, the sense of immersion is truly overwhelming.
The iron spear is not only a weapon, but also a source of courage; holding a long spear naturally emboldens one.
With the spear in hand, my spirit and will were instantly elevated. Thinking about these past few days, and hearing that they might be organized to learn some basic martial arts techniques with real swords and spears, I felt an overwhelming excitement.
Some bold young girls will occasionally take a closer look.
Soldiers on patrol or on inspection tours marched without shame, their movements orderly and disciplined. If a suitable match was found, marriage was certainly an option.
The city garrison commander, having diligently performed his duties, felt a sense of relief as he gazed at the approaching dawn.
She smiled gently at Jin Luo beside her and said, "When are you planning to get married and have children? We'll have a drink at your wedding then."
Jin Luo blushed slightly and said softly, "I haven't decided yet. He comes from a scholarly family, while I'm just a peasant. I'm afraid..."
Wes gently shook his head and comforted him, "Since the other party is willing to meet, it's fine to have met once. Besides, your talent is not bad either."
Moreover, with great guidance from adults, diligent practice in the future will lead to a bright future.
After a moment's hesitation, she said softly, "As for Jin Feng, if possible, she should settle down and start a family as soon as possible. With elders around, it's good to nurture her early."
Then he gazed into the distance in silence, thinking of his own son, who was somewhat talented. He was no match for the adults, but much better than himself.
It wasn't that King Wu didn't miss out on the opportunity later; he was simply fortunate enough to have the resources he has now.
As for other people's affairs, just touch on them lightly; don't offer deep advice.
Jin Luo nodded slightly, recalling her father's advice. She silently resolved, 'Give myself some time. If I still can't break through…'
The myriad aspects of human life.
Yun Baiyi hadn't slept all night. Hei Yi was injured and naturally needed to recuperate. It was a rare opportunity for him to recuperate for a while, so he quietly stayed and did his best to guard the front line.
The land reclamation work has been suspended, awaiting the general's return.
"General Bai, I'm here to relieve you. You should go and rest." With a loud, straightforward voice, Zhang Dazhuang strode forward, displaying unwavering courage and a willingness to charge into battle, even at the cost of his life.
"Alright, I'll leave this place to you. I'm going to take a nap. If Miss and the others come over, remember to call me." Yun Baiyi didn't stand on ceremony. With a flash, she disappeared back to her residence.
Zhang Dazhuang shook off the dew from his clothes, looked at the first rays of morning sunlight, and gazed at the dense mountains in the distance. He felt an urge to grab a big knife and rush over there.
To clear away all obstacles in front of us, expand our territory, and leave behind a glorious reputation.
After gazing around for a moment, he looked around while carrying his broadsword.
Along the way, soldiers greeted him with "Greetings, General Zhang!" or "Good morning, General Zhang!"
There was also Zhang Dazhuang's response, which seemed to carry a strange feeling.
"Hello," "Good morning to you too," "Be careful, don't let your guard down!"
Along the way, the soldiers took turns on daytime duty, and there was more to do during the day.
Seeing their own general escorting them, they felt inexplicably at ease. The corpse demons and demon tigers broadened the horizons of the soldiers.
My seventh uncle, eighth uncle, and others would practice in the courtyard after getting up early. My ninth uncle was chopping wood, cutting it in two neatly with a single stroke. He was meticulous, just like an old farmer.
Uncle Qi stopped and laughed, "At this rate, we're all really getting old."
Uncle Ba nodded slightly, "Indeed, he's getting worse day by day. You can tell when you have some free time. His health is definitely not as good as before, and it's inevitable that it's weakening. In the end, it's still the young people's world."
We're all retiring early. If it could really be that wonderful, my life would be complete.
Uncle Jiu stopped chopping wood and said slowly, "If Miss has a child, then we'll have something to do."
Seventh Uncle, Eighth Uncle, paused for a moment, then seemed to be deep in thought.
Looking at the city so changed, a smile appeared on his face. He did not find any trace of Wei Ming, but he did not think much of it. He figured it should be safe. As for what would happen in the future, he did not need to worry too much.
With a light touch, it vanishes swiftly.
Today is a big day in Huangtu County.
Magistrate Meng was dressed in his official robes, looking neat and tidy. These days, there hadn't been many major events, just some minor conflicts.
Many large families are gone, some others are temporarily unable to rise, and some who were originally well-behaved no longer dare to take the opportunity to cause trouble.
A knife hangs over one's head; if someone causes trouble, the knife will fall and no one will be spared.
Moreover, news of the corpse demon and tiger demon spread very quickly, even though that lord dealt with them with a single blow.
However, General Yun Qing and the entire army demonstrated comparable strength.
Therefore, staying calm and obeying the rules is the best thing to do right now.
Magistrate Meng can now sleep in as late as he wants and eat as he pleases, without having to worry about anything. Moreover, after the last dragon aura investigation incident, he knows that as magistrate, he should just behave himself and not interfere too much.
This place is now a peaceful and prosperous place, with tax revenue growing rapidly, and more and more people from the surrounding areas are willing to come here. It's just that the county town is a bit small.
"My lord, we've arrived too early today. There's still an hour before it begins," the servant in blue whispered beside him.
Meng Zhixiao straightened her clothes, looked her over carefully, and after confirming that there was nothing inappropriate, she said softly, "Xiaozhi, you've been with me for so long, how come you haven't made any progress at all?"
Today is at the City God Temple, a very important event, not a matter for ordinary people. Arrive early so you'll be seen; otherwise, with so many people, who will recognize you?
Qingyi Xiaozhi shuddered upon hearing this, stammering, "No way, the City God can come out in broad daylight?"
Magistrate Meng shook his head and remained silent. "Perhaps it was impossible before, but now it's hard to say."
He casually remarked, "This took everyone in the city a tremendous amount of effort to get from Gui San. Otherwise, do you think we had a share in this?"
He wasn't angry, nor could he be angry; he sighed inwardly, 'I can't afford to offend that person! That lord, I really can't afford to offend him!'
The prefect and governor were both beheaded, but I'm still perfectly fine. Doesn't that prove I'm incredibly powerful?
The news only circulated within a certain circle, and some things naturally couldn't be mentioned to outsiders. Even the prefect couldn't afford to offend him, let alone a mere county magistrate like myself.
