Strengthening starts from the county magistrate

Chapter 788
Shen Mu felt that the streets in Jiancheng were more chaotic than those in Fengjiang.

Of course, Fengjiang was so chaotic a long time ago, but after the design and transformation of Shenmu, it has the current prosperous scene.

However, people here in Jiancheng hardly care about these things.

No one seems to care too much about uneven stone roads, dilapidated walls of different heights, or muddy streets like streets and alleys.

And even if the conditions are like this, there are still many paving out to make a living.

The street in front of me is close to the root of the city wall of Jiancheng, and leads to the bottom of another wall along the border, which is very long.

Shen Mu strolled on the streets of Jiancheng, feeling the faint sword intent coming from all around, as if any big man drinking on the side of the road was a sword cultivator on the 34th and [-]th floors.

And at this moment, Shen Mu also felt what is the strongest city in Middle-earth China.

The battle outside the city didn't seem to disturb these people, and they didn't particularly run to the city wall to watch the excitement.

It's as if there are two extreme atmospheres in the city, those who are interested are those who are more noisy, and those who are not interested are extremely deep, even if Shen Mu is standing in front of him now, at most he just casually takes a look , then continued to bow their heads, each doing their own thing.

Fortunately, no one came up to challenge in Jiancheng, so the journey went smoothly.

Most of the younger generation have already recognized Shen Mu's strength. Even if he doesn't have the body of a sword embryo, as long as he is strong enough, he can still be respected.

Not long after walking, a middle-aged man appeared by the side of the street. This man looked quite upright, wearing a long blue dress, and was smiling slightly at him.

Although Shen Mu didn't have much time to practice kendo, he still had a keen sense of sword intent. He could almost feel the sword intent emanating from the man in front of him, which was no less than that of Li Ji from Moshan Sword Sect. , even more so.

If the guess is correct, it should be only one step away from the fifteenth floor, and if you step up, you will be a real sword god in the human realm.

Of course, the name of the sword body is just the name of the monks in the world of human realm, but if it is connected to the border, it may be called the sword god, and it should be of a higher realm.

The man had been watching Shen Mu walking slowly from the gate of the city, and when the two got a little closer, he opened his mouth with a smile.

"Song Jiachun is the master of the Song family in Jiancheng, and even the uncle of Song Yizhi. I heard my niece mention you before, so I came to see you today. It seems that the rumors about the deeds of the master of Dongzhou are not bad. Fake, looking at it now, it is really extraordinary."

Shen Mu stood on the spot, looking at the strange man in front of him.

He really doesn't know Song Jiachun and Song Yizhi's uncle, in fact, he hasn't heard much about Song Yizhi's own family before.

However, when he was in Fengjiang City, he had heard some early information about the Song family from Gu Shouzhi. The generation of his ancestors went out from Dongzhou, and he was also a family of the Dali Dynasty.

Of course, at that time, the establishment of Sword City on all continents required monks and strongmen from all states and dynasties in the world, so the Song family has never returned since then.

But it has been thousands of years, in fact, basically there is no connection between these things, but since this person is said to be Song Yizhi's uncle, and he is also the lobby of the Song family, who is now the head of the Song family, then more or less It should be given some thin face, at least not to refute Song Yizhi's face.

What's more, even if Song Yizhi didn't mention this before coming here, logically speaking, it's okay to agree or ignore, but Shen Mu represents Dongzhou, and some human feelings and sophistication should be fulfilled.

Shen Mu cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Dongzhou Shen Mu, I have met the master of the Song family."

Song Jiachun nodded, then looked at the people who were still yelling outside the city gate, and said again: "Don't be offended, the rules of Jiancheng have always been like this, but judging from the previous situation, it should not be difficult for you. Since you entered Jiancheng , why not just live in my Song family?"

Shen Mu paused slightly when he heard the words, he didn't expect the other party to invite him so abruptly.

It's just that, from the moment he met him halfway to the straightforward invitation now, it seems as if he is going to go home early to intercept him?
What does it mean?
Don't want me to have a long talk with Song Yizhi all night?
Shen Mu thought for a while, and then said lightly: "Thank you, Patriarch Song, for your kindness, but this time I'm only looking for Song Yizhi, apart from returning the sword and fulfilling the agreement back then, it's just a casual walk around, so don't bother me. As for the matter between me and Song Yizhi, it’s actually not as complicated as you think, but I can’t do anything if you think about it, after all, I, Shen Mu, never dare to say what others say, let alone influence me.”

Shen Mu didn't give Song Jiachun any leeway, and spoke very directly, expressing all his hidden thoughts.

Song Jiachun's face was slightly restrained, he looked at Shen Mu: "Master Shen, I have no other intentions, but Song Yizhi is my niece after all, I watched her grow up since I was a child, so please don't take offense if I think too much, It’s just that if it’s really gossip, it’s not very good for any of you, is it?”

"Really?" Shen Mu shrugged: "I think it's pretty good, besides, you elders won't make a move? Who dares to gossip, just cut it off, it's fine, the rumors in Jiancheng are like this Vigorous and resolute, isn’t it?”

Song Jiachun: "..."

Shen Mu: "Of course, if it's inconvenient for you to make a move, I can do it too. As long as you have an opinion, my Heavenly Demon warship in Dongzhou can parachute into Jiancheng at any time. Don't worry. As for where I sleep, I don't need to worry about it." .”

Song Jiachun: "???"

At this moment, after hearing Shen Mu's words, Song Jiachun almost couldn't hold back and began to scold directly.

Your uncle, is this the person Song Yizhi is looking for?

Are you too arrogant?
Ever since Jiancheng was established, I haven't seen anyone who dares to say such a thing, even though there are rumors, directly airborne the warship?
Is this too much?
Song Jiachun was stifled and couldn't say a word, although he really wanted to say a few more words, but no matter how he explained it, he felt a little embarrassed and embarrassed.

But what if this Shen Mu was invited by Song Yizhi to live in Jianlou, what to do, he is a lonely man and a widow.

I'm afraid someone will start discussing it in a few days. Although they in Jiancheng don't pay much attention to these things, Song Yizhi is special after all. At this juncture, there must be no other problems.

Recently, the monster clan has stopped attacking, and the people in Jiancheng have become idle. Apart from cultivation, maybe gossip is left.

Song Jiachun felt it was still inappropriate, and was about to say something more, when a voice came from behind.

"Uncle Song, Shen Mu won't go to the Song family mansion anymore, Yizhi asked me to pick him up."

When Song Jiachun heard the words, he turned around and saw that it was Lan Xiaodie.

After a long time, he let out a long sigh: "Xiaodie, did Yizhi really say that?"

"Of course, if you don't believe me, you can ask her yourself."

"But... After all, Shen Mu is the master of Dongzhou. If our Song family is so negligent, it won't be very pleasant to spread the word."

"Whether it sounds good or not is his business. Yizhi said, she will make the decision, let Shen Mu go directly to Jianlou to find her, and you don't need to worry about the rest."

After Lan Xiaodie finished speaking, she strode forward directly, and then gave Shen Mu a wink: "Let's go, everyone is here, waiting for your hot pot."

After she finished speaking, she walked directly in another direction, completely ignoring Song Jiachun behind her.

Shen Mu looked at Lan Xiaodie's back, then at Song Jiachun, and seemed to feel that she was not getting along well with the Song family.

But before he had time to think about it, Shen Mu also said goodbye to Song Jiachun, and then chased after him.

After walking for a while, he seemed to feel Shen Mu's doubts.

Lan Xiaodie said in the front: "Shen Mu, Yizhi is very optimistic about you, it's best not to let her down, do you know how much pressure she has put on to find you this time?"

"Pressure?" Seeing Lan Xiaodie's expression, Shen Mu hesitated a little, then thought for a while and said, "According to what you and that Song Jiachun mean, does Song Yizhi have any other troubles in Jiancheng with his status?"

Lan Xiaodie: "Trouble is not too much trouble, but it is an unavoidable cliché for many families. Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, and Jiancheng is no exception. But looking back, according to your performance today and before Some deeds, and even the current status of the owner of Dongzhou, is a good match with our family.

It's just that the current Song family has more or less other voices. After all, the barrier of heaven is about to be broken, and everyone will rush into the real world at that time.

So some people in the Song family still think that Song Yizhi should have a better choice. After the border, maybe they will rely on Song Yizhi to find other options.

Of course, Song Jiachun didn’t express such an opinion, but Song Yizhi’s third uncle did have some voices. There were three elders in the Song family, Song Jiachun, Song Yixia who was Song Yizhi’s father, and Song Dingqiu.

Song Yizhi's parents were already gone when they fought against the Yaozu, and now there are only the lobby and the three halls..."

Lan Xiaodie seemed to be rambling, but in fact she basically told Shen Mu everything about the Song family in Jiancheng.

After listening to her words, Shen Mu also understood a little bit, what he understood before was really not very deep.

Because at that time, Song Yizhi never told himself about these things, let alone her parents were long gone.

It's just that Shen Mu doesn't know that although these things are true, Song Yizhi's life in Jiancheng is not as lonely as she said. If it is not for his talent, he will be shocked by heaven, otherwise he will suffer some cold eyes And bullshit like abuse.

On the contrary, Song Yizhi has always been taken care of in Jiancheng, and they are also the absolute core figures in their generation. How could they be alone and even have a miserable childhood?

Of course, Fang Mu must have half believed these nonsense.

Although he has only just learned about these things, he is still fully aware of Song Yizhi's character and ability.

With her domineering style of conduct, it is definitely not created by a too bad environment.

Let Lan Xiaodie twitter and say something along the way, while talking about how bad Song Yizhi's situation is, while threatening Shen Mu not to shrink back when encountering difficulties, etc., and so on.

It's like being so secretive and helping pick a man.

It's just that Shen Mu was puzzled, all of you have preconceived ideas like this, shouldn't you ask me what I mean first?
For Song Yizhi, he was actually not particularly worried.

In many cases, there is often no choice because the strength is too weak. If the strength is strong enough, there are some things that the family can't interfere with.

The reason why Zhen Shuxiang of the Zhen family is controlled by the family is that her own force value is still too weak. Some ordinary monks can threaten her, but Song Yizhi is not like this. Nowadays, there should be no one in the whole world who dares to threaten her. , not to mention that the family coerced her to do something she didn't want to do.

If one day Song Yizhi really doesn't want to stay here anymore, he can actually just leave, and they have nothing to do with her, and they can't stop her.

Not long after walking, he and Lan Xiaodie arrived under the sword tower in Jiancheng.

At this time, in front of the Jianlou gate, Li Chaoci had already arrived first, and was welcoming him at the gate.

Shen Mu greeted, and then seriously looked at the legendary sword tower.

It is an unusually quaint balcony. From the outside, it doesn't look too special.

There are even a lot of children playing below, and some street vendors sitting and chatting aside, not treating this sword building as a fairy soldier at all.

Moreover, he couldn't feel any sword energy below the third floor, so it should be restrained deliberately.

But from the third floor up, if you use the soul to perceive carefully, you can feel some differences.

Almost every layer has a very messy sword intent, and each layer is stronger than the next.

"This sword building has ten floors." Lan Xiaodie pointed to the top floor: "Yizhi usually retreats there, if you come, you can live on the first floor, tonight we will have dinner on the second floor, you bring Did you order that special hot pot?"

Shen Mu was taken aback: "You also know hot pot?"

Lan Xiaodie nodded, "Of course I know, Song Yizhi will occasionally ask us to eat when he comes back."

Shen Mu smiled: "Well, I taught her to do this when she was in Fengjiang City."

"Chen Mu, by the way, you really went to the Southwest Dragon Sea alone before? What does the Dragon King look like? Two bearded mouths? Or Yushu Linfeng... covered in scales?"

"Uh, how should I put it." Shen Mu thought for a while: "It's just an ordinary dragon, nothing special. If you really want to see it, I can introduce you to some when you find time. In fact, all dragons are transformed. , but the realm is different, so the time of transformation is also different, nothing special."

"In the depths of the Southwest Dragon Sea, are there really powerful existences? How does it compare with our Sword City?"

Shen Mu thought for a while: "If you count the Dragon King Hall, it's about the same, but the Four Dragon Palaces are actually nothing. This time I brought seafood, so you can taste the taste of the Southwest Dragon Sea."

"Oh? Then hurry up, I can't wait!"
