Arknights is too real, right?

This map is quite professionally drawn, at least on the surface it looks professional.

The mountains are mountains and the water is water. The mountains, rivers and valleys are clearly marked, and there are also some small notes obviously written by later generations.

For example, if some sections of the road are crossed, it means that the road is no longer feasible.

For example, if a road has a note of Water Storage, it means that the road is very long and there are few places to replenish water on the road.

Of course, this is professional advice for large caravans, and all they need is the right route, bagpipes and wind treasures, food and safety are not problems.

After spending 5 silver coins to get a satisfactory map, Xia Feng's pace became even more relaxed.

Next, he only needed to find the carriage heading to Xichuan.

This is Dongzhou under the rule of the Sakura Takeshi family. There are carriages to Nishikawa, but they are very few. However, they do not have to reach Nishikawa.

For them, any carriage heading west would be fine, at least faster than legs.

As the capital of Dongzhou, the nightlife is definitely relatively rich. Even though it is already very late, the night market is still lively.

Grilled squid, charred and tender grilled squid, come and try it!

Lantern, don't you buy one from Red Lantern!

Sugar man, sugar man!

The cries of various stalls are endless, and the products and food are very Dongguo characteristics.

Walking in the bustling night market, passing by people in simple clothes, Xia Feng felt as if his heart was really integrated into this kind of market life.

Yes, he wants to be an ordinary person, no, he is an ordinary person now.

While Xia Feng was immersed in his thoughts of comfort, suddenly, a stall selling paper pinwheels attracted his attention.

Without stopping, he looked sideways.

Because he was distracted, the next second, his shoulder slightly collided with someone who was passing by.

Boom!

Because he still had internal injuries on his chest, his muscles were completely relaxed when walking. The collision knocked him staggering, and he almost fell down.

It was obvious that the person who hit him was very strong, and judging from the force that was inadvertently transmitted, he was also a martial arts practitioner.

Ouch!

Seeing Xia Feng take two steps back after being touched, the man immediately reached out his hand and pressed his shoulders to stabilize him.

Sorry, it's okay.

Seeing that this man was very polite, Xia Feng replied completely nonchalantly after standing firm.

It's okay, I was distracted while walking, I'm sorry.

However, when he continued to raise the brim of his coir raincoat and saw the face of the person who bumped into him, his heart tightened subconsciously.

The tall and straight figure, sharp eyes, handsome facial features, and the pendant engraved with the cherry blossom crest worn around his waist all highlight this person's identity.

This person is very familiar to Xia Feng. Not long ago, they were called brothers. His name is Ying Wuyun.

The inner reaction only lasted less than half a second, and at the same time, his expression was not affected by his emotions at all, and he did not even lower the brim of his raised raincoat.

The next moment, Xia Feng grinned with a silly smile.

Young master, I'm sorry, you must be a big shot. I'm really offended. I hope you don't blame me, a country man.

Ying Wuyun has never been a condescending person. He let go of Xia Feng's shoulders and his voice was very easy-going.

Obviously it was me who hit you, so there's no point in blaming you. As long as everyone is fine.

Xia Feng bowed slightly.

This young master is really generous. Then I'll take my leave.

This is Dongzhou. Although Yingwuyun is wearing plain clothes, anyone who is not a fool can recognize the pendant. It is an accessory that can only be worn by members of the Yingwu family.

Facing the young master of the Yingwu family, Xia Feng's slightly humble attitude is reasonable.

However, at the moment when Xia Feng flapped his sleeves and brushed against Ying Wuyun again, he was stopped.

Wait a moment.

Xia Feng stopped when he heard the sound and looked sideways.

Master, is there anything else you can do?

Ying Wuyun's eyes were very deep.

Have we met somewhere?

Oh, it's impossible. If I had seen a young master like you, I would definitely have an impression. To be honest, this is my first time coming to Dongzhou Mansion, haha.

May I have your name?

My name is John Doe.

The surrounding downtown was still noisy, but in the ears of Xia Feng and Ying Wuyun, the air seemed to have fallen into deathly silence.

Ying Wuyun stared at Xia Feng's half-exposed face for five seconds.

Finally, Xia Feng's voice was the first to break the silence.

Master, do you have anything else to do? I also made an appointment with a friend.

It's okay, you can go.

thank you.

Just when Xia Feng turned around again and took steps to walk less than two meters away.

Uh-huh!

The katana at Ying Wuyun's waist was instantly unsheathed and stabbed into Xia Feng's back like lightning.

The blade reflected the cold light and looked extremely sharp. With Ying Wuyun's strength, it was enough to pierce even armor.

The air solidified at this moment, and the flow of time seemed to become extremely slow.

The distance between the blade and Xia Feng shortened minute by minute, 50 cm, 20 cm, 10 cm, 5 cm

Until the distance was less than 1 centimeter, Xia Feng still maintained his forward posture without any reaction.

Ding!

The long knife that was steadily sheathed issued a warning, and just when the blade almost touched the clothes on Xia Feng's back, Ying Wuyun stopped.

Ying Wuyun is also talented in swordsmanship, and he is considered the leader of the younger generation of the Yingwu family.

The sword he just struck was extremely swift, and it was a surprise attack from behind, even most generals would not be able to react in time.

However, Sakura Wuyun knew one thing very well.

If it were Zhang San, he would definitely be able to see through this fatal knife. Even if he is seriously injured, the natural sensitivity of martial arts practitioners will react subconsciously.

This is the instinct of a warrior.

Facing his knife, which was far more genuine than a test, the man with his back turned didn't react at all, and he didn't even breathe abnormally.

Was his intuition wrong this time?

Ah, it's a paper pinwheel. Brother Yun, buy it for me!

Sakurawu Qianye's voice came from behind.

However, it wasn't until Qianye's sister ran to Ying Wuyun's side and tugged on his arm that his eyes moved back from the direction of someone's back disappearing into the sea of ​​people.

Seeing Ying Wuyun's expression, Qianye was a little confused.

Brother Yun, what are you looking at?

nothing.

Is he someone you know? Where is he? Where is he? Introduce him to me, hehe.

Yingwu Qianye glanced in the direction where Yingwu Yun was looking just now, with exaggerated movements.

Ying Wuyun breathed out a heavy breath, and then smiled at sister Qianye.

Nothing, just a man who admitted his mistake.

Haha, Brother Yun is really confused.

Hey, what do you want to buy?

“Buy a pinwheel!”

good.

Xia Feng's footsteps didn't pause at all. In Ying Wuyun's eyes, it was as if this person didn't realize that someone was trying to stab him from behind.

He just turned his back to Ying Wuyun and walked away lightly.

Xia Feng didn't stop until they walked very far away, until the endless sea of ​​people completely submerged each other's figures.

The clothes on his chest were completely soaked.

Ah.

The chuckle was a relief that he'd made the right bet.

Of course, this was just his subjective judgment at the time.

Until one day some years later.

While Xia Feng was basking in the sun on a mysterious uninhabited island, he accidentally recalled the past in Dongguo.

After experiencing a life that ordinary people could not imagine, he made a slightly different judgment than his young self at that time.

Is Ying Wuyun really a mentally retarded?

The answer is unknown.

He didn't know whether the man who once called him third brother recognized him.

Maybe not recognized.

Perhaps he had recognized it, but had deliberately not revealed it.
