this is my ark journey

Ren's light words made the girl's face tense. She didn't expect to be spotted by this person. After thinking about it, she thought it made sense.
After all, Shangshu is Liang Xun's territory, and it cannot be separated from him anyway, at least 'dereliction of duty' is inevitable.
She slowly pulled her hand out of her bosom, and quietly took half a step back.
The guard didn't pay attention to a girl with an immature face, so he directly greeted Renn with a sword, and asked in Yanyan with a strong local accent:
"Who are you two, why did you come to Shangshu?"
This accent is similar to that of Nian, and what's even better is that Ren can also speak this accent, so he cupped his hands and replied, "We are brother and sister, we have been wandering abroad for several years, and we want to go back to our hometown to visit relatives, I hope you don't think too much about it. "
Don't you say you are from Jiang Qi?
Lin Qingyan's eyes widened a little, and he couldn't see through this person more and more.
The similar accent suddenly shortened the distance, and the two guards immediately relaxed a lot, and opened their mouths to ask, "But why are you two in such a mess?"
"The road to the east is cut off. Our two brothers and sisters climbed the mountain in the rain. You know that the girl is timid. I dare not stay on the mountain."
The reason was reasonable, and the guards were also notified that the mountain road to the east was broken, and today the prefect of Liang asked the Celestial Civil Engineer to rush to repair it.
"Okay, you two go, remember to go to the government if you have any difficulties." The guard was about to leave after speaking.
"Does the government have to take care of this?"
"Prefect Liang said that being an official is not a decision for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes, what kind of service-oriented government should be established."
Ren was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses. He had just come out of the cold Ursas, and he was still a little unaccustomed to this kind of human touch.
"Liang Xun has been first-class in the official department assessment several times. He has a way to be an official, and even he can't be trusted?" Lin Qingyan sighed.
"Be careful in everything, at least try it out."
Be cautious, Lin Qingyan has no opinion, after all, the water in Shangshu is very deep, but after thinking about it, she feels something is wrong.
"You don't want to just eat my interest."
"Master Lin is joking."
The girl looked at him suspiciously, and after a while, sighed again: "Since you want to hide your identity, don't call me an adult, call me Jingzhe."
"It's a little rain and the flowers are new, and it starts with a thunderstorm. It's not bad." Ren shook his head like an old master, and moved forward along the crowd, leaving the girl standing in place, repeating that poem repeatedly.
Can't tell, this person is quite educated, maybe he is a scholar, but thinking of the philistine's words and the long sword in his waist, she threw this inexplicable association out of her brain.
Up until now, I have never seen a scholar who cuts people so quickly.
Let's say that Ren surged forward along the crowd, climbed a hillside, and the front suddenly became clear.
The spring breeze was blowing, and he saw a huge mountain city, unlike the pavilions and pavilions of ancient China in the inherent impression, this city also has many skyscrapers, and the flickering lights reveal a modern atmosphere, but it is not like Longmen. modern.
There are high-rise buildings, and there are also wooden mansions with the characteristics of the Yan Kingdom. The mountains and rivers shuttle between them, adding a touch of tranquility to the modern age. The city occupies a large area and is very scattered. Some emerald green peaks are scattered throughout the city. Rennes A brief count, exactly three mountains and seventeen peaks.
"This place is nice, with beautiful scenery and warm people. It's a good place to retire."
"Don't you say you are from Shangshu?" Jing Zhe also walked over, and passers-by also showed kind smiles when they saw the pair of brothers and sisters.
It's normal to be more timid near the nostalgia.
Ren didn't answer her stupid question, but fixed his gaze on Yifeng, his eyebrows furrowed unconsciously.
He had a strange feeling that there seemed to be something there, but there seemed to be nothing there, Ashes rarely felt this kind of ambiguous feedback.
"It seems to be affected by this land." He laughed at himself, obviously he rarely understood the mysterious things in the east, and the undead people were more inclined to the west.
If you can see it, you can see it, if you can kill it, you can kill it. Pay attention to a powerful flying brick, and what you fight is destructive power.
I don't know which brother or sister of Nian it is, if there is no accident, they should come to him.
Years of similar positions are not consistent, and two months of hard work do not know how much that fun person has done.
"Let's go, first find an inn to stay, and then accompany you to investigate the matter."
"Aren't you going to the city?" Jing Zhe didn't understand what this man was thinking, sometimes he was fishing and sometimes he was anxious.
"No." Ren raised his feet and walked towards the misty city.
"I'm in a hurry."
Chapter 520 Do your best and listen to the destiny
As soon as Ren came out of the ruined Fort Saint Jun, he turned his head and entered the big city of Yan Kingdom. Compared with the two, Yan Kingdom gave him a more peaceful and peaceful feeling.
There are no military police all over the street, no military police extortion, and the capital is within a reasonable range. He can't find a reason to fan the flames.
The two found a fairly good inn to stay in, the room fee was of course paid by Jingzhe, and this inn named 'Xingyu' was somewhat famous in Shangshu, and the layout was similar to that in the TV series.
The upper part is the guest room, and the lower part is the dining room, filled with square tables and benches made of solid wood, and the waiter with a white towel on his shoulder is holding a tray and shouting loudly.
"Guest officer, your food is here!"
Boiled pork slices, braised pork knuckles in sauce, diced pork with spicy peppers, shredded shredded potatoes with sansho peppers and other six or seven dishes filled the square table. Ren put a piece of red meat in his mouth and closed his eyes comfortably.
Very spicy, but refreshingly spicy.
"It's been a long time since I've eaten such a tasty dish." As a strong palate, Rennes' Syracuse pasta was filled with tomato sauce, and his taste buds were completely opened.
Jing Zhe picked up a piece of meat suspiciously and put it in his mouth, he was taken aback for a moment, then his face turned red, and he frantically looked for water to drink.
"It's so spicy, can you eat it?"
All the dishes are extra spicy, of course she can't stand it as a person from the capital.
"I can't eat the tasteless food, but I understand why the fun guy likes to eat hot pot."
"Happy man?"
"It's just a friend." Ren was perfunctory, and after a second thought, I'm afraid that Nian came to Shangshu because he wanted to eat hot pot. I remember that she criticized Kjerag's cheese fondue as useless.
Jing Zhe took several mouthfuls of tea, suppressed the spiciness at least, and asked while holding the only edible pork elbow, "How will I investigate later? How can I test Liang Xun?"
"No rush, let's eat the special dishes in the store first."
"Hey, you said you were in a hurry!"
"I've changed my mind a bit, just take a vacation for myself before the decisive battle." Ren paused his hands for a while, listening to the sound of punching in his ears, showing nostalgia.
How long has it been since I used chopsticks? How long has it been since I heard such a familiar Sichuan accent? I just blasted Fort St. Jun, and now I want to destroy this city again?
It would be delusional for a battle of Rennes' level not to affect the innocent, and the year beast here is obviously also the target of the enemy, otherwise the year would not have disappeared.
'I have to think of a way to get rid of those people as quickly and cheaply as possible. If that year old beast is disobedient, he has to kill the mess quickly. '
He squinted his eyes and looked at the rice, not in a hurry, because this time the disguise was flawless, just like a game of chess, he had taken the upper hand early on, and it was the opponent who should be confused.
This bastard must want to eat interest!
Jing Zhe was convinced of Ren's sinister intentions, but he couldn't resist, the sword strike last night would never be forgotten in this lifetime.
The two of them were eating, when they suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums, they raised their heads and saw a middle-aged man in a long gown standing at the door and clapping his hands to everyone.
He was chubby, and he looked like a businessman at first glance. After he attracted everyone's attention, he said loudly: "I am Zheng Qingyue, the shopkeeper of Xingyu Inn. Today is the Lantern Festival, and it is the anniversary of the opening of the inn. I wish you all the best! May all go well with you."
He said auspicious words, congratulatory voices came from the store, and Ren put down his chopsticks, listened with interest, and asked Jingzhe next to him, what is the Lantern Festival.
The girl rolled her eyes, thinking that this person was either not from the Yan Kingdom, or had just fallen out of some rock, and explained that this was the end of the Great Yan New Year.
It's the Lantern Festival.
Ren understood now, so he continued to watch.
"It's just such a festive season, the store is also holding an event, and Yao Ye will serve it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a petite girl came up with a yellow clay wine jar. There was a diamond-shaped sticker on the surface of the wine jar with the word 'Longquan' written on it.
"Longquan fine wine, you must have heard of it before, and I got it by chance." Zheng Qingyue paused, saw a fiery gaze, and suddenly smiled slyly:
"Today, everyone can participate. Three bowls are the bottom line. Whoever can drink to the end will offer the good wine with both hands."
Xiaoer moved a long table, spread out a large pile of clay bowls one by one, and then filled them up one by one, and the inn was filled with the smell of wine.
Alcohol boosts your courage, so people immediately slapped the table and stood up. No matter whether you can fight till the end, you are a fool if you don’t drink the free wine. The man fell unconscious on the ground.
"It's strong! Lao Zheng, aren't you afraid of drinking it?" Some old drinkers recognized it immediately. The name of this wine is very strong, at least sixty or seventy degrees, and one bowl is four taels, and three bowls are one catty. It's strange if you don't fall down after two or two meals.
"Hehe, this pot of wine costs hundreds of thousands, of course we have to increase the difficulty." Zheng Qingyue chuckled, there was no one in Shangshu who could drink like this, and when the news got out, he would be equivalent to an advertisement for whoring for nothing.
Superman Terra couldn't stand the [-]-[-]% alcohol in one breath, and there were fewer people who got up immediately, only some old drinkers bravely went up, and some people sneaked away, obviously they were going to find the masters .
Ren didn't move, he was not interested in wine, but asked quietly: "Is this wine very precious?"
"Well, Longquan is old wine from a hundred years ago, and there are very few surviving ones. It is very difficult to buy a pot in the capital, and I don't know where the shopkeeper got it." Jingzhe muttered, feeling like he was almost becoming an encyclopedia. It's also a free version.
"Then I'll join in the fun." Ren stood up as he spoke, but the cuffs were pulled.
Jing Zhe lowered her voice and said, "Aren't you afraid of attracting attention?"
"Why should I be afraid?"
With a slight shake of her hand, the girl could no longer hold it, and sat there in a daze with her slightly numb hands.
That's right, what is he afraid of? With his strength, there are few places in this world that he can't go to. If he has no strength, how dare he do whatever he wants.
Besides, when Ren went to the front, there happened to be an old alcoholic who drank the second bowl and wobbled, and yelled, "Give me, last, a bowl!"
No one else dared to let him drink any more, they hurriedly helped him down, and several old men were smoking cigarettes, shaking their heads there.
"Ghost Wine Seven is not good either. Last time the magistrate held a national banquet, he drunk over a dozen young men."
"The shopkeeper Zheng didn't intend to send wine. After drinking three bowls of strong turbidity, it's time to go to the hospital for gastric lavage."
"I also do gastric lavage, but I hate that there must be a few minutes interval between each bowl, otherwise I will bite my teeth and talk about it after eating it all."
"It's not worth dying for a pot of wine."
"Is there any hero who wants to challenge the challenge!" Zheng Qingyue smiled from ear to ear.
This matter has already spread, and many masters of Shangshu have come to try it. Sure enough, the publicity is not the same after spending money. This activity can be held for a long time, but there will be a fee in the future.
After calling three times but no one answered, he simply raised his hand: "In that case, today..."
"Don't worry, I'll try."
A voice came, and the crowd stepped aside, and a young man in a shabby robe walked up. From Zheng Qingyue's eyesight, he knew that this man was seeking a living outside the city.
He didn't sneer, but only reminded: "It's okay to try, but if something happens, you have to pay for the medical expenses yourself."
"Yes." Ren didn't bother to talk nonsense, he raised his wine bowl and drank with his head raised.
Gollum.
The strong wine has a unique pungent taste in his throat, but after the pungent, there is a hint of sweetness, but this stimulation soon passed, he put down the bowl and wiped the corners of his mouth with some unfinished content.
"Good wine, but too little."
His feet didn't shake, his face didn't turn red, as if he just drank a bowl of water and went straight to get the next bowl, only to be held down by his hand.
"According to the rules, you have to wait for 5 minutes." Zheng Qingyue stared at the other party, and glanced at his adopted daughter Du Yaoye, as if asking her if she had poured fake wine.
"I'll drink five bowls." Ren shook his hand lightly and forcefully. He had just found some fun. This strong drink reminded him of elemental soup. It was equally stimulating, but it tasted a hundred times better.
"you sure?!"
"Without further ado."
Ren simply picked up the wine jar, dropped the stopper, and drank with his head up. This is a routine in normal times. It looks like a hero, but in fact most of them are fed with clothes, but Zheng Qingyue's sarcasm froze on his face.
Not a single drop was spilled, this young man enjoyed it...
Is this really human! ?
There was no sound in the noisy restaurant just now, and everyone was staring at the swordsman who was drinking with his head up, watching his throat surge.In the private room on the second floor, the elegant young man in a long gown also watched quietly, and finally sighed.
"Da Yanguo is really outstanding. When will a monster appear again? One person dares to kill dozens of New Year's Party members. It looks like a reckless gangster."
Opposite him was a burly man, holding the wine cup with his hands full of calluses: "It does look reckless, I have already sent someone to investigate."
The strong people of Dayan are either in the imperial court or in the Tianshi Mansion. Apart from the two, there is also a rivers and lakes, in which there are no files to follow.
"There are many sword masters in the Jianghu, can you find out?" The young man looked indifferently.
"It can be found out, but it will take time."
"Time, what we lack is time. With the swift and resolute action of that one, when you realize something is wrong, how soon will it come?"
"Not to mention that the main force of the demon is not damaged, even if he can fly, it will take ten days!"
