Tongzhou, Shangyu County, Feiyun City At night, the street lamps in Anping City were lit, and the hotels and restaurants in the city began to have business, in a restaurant called Ruyi Winery on Zhuque Street in Feiyun City, the hotel's Xiaoer with a white towel on his shoulder was also working hard at the door to solicit guests on the street.
"Hey, please be a guest, our store is affordable, Tong Su is not bullied, wine and food, everything you need" Feiyun City was originally a big city in Shangyu County, with a population of more than four million, but in the bloody disaster two years ago, more than ten counties in Tongzhou were affected, Shangyu County is the hardest hit area of the bloody disaster in Tongzhou, Feiyun City also suffered huge losses in this bloody disaster, the entire Feiyun City and dozens of towns outside the city, almost in the bloody disaster, Feiyun City's population of more than four million, the last survivor, less than 400,000 people.
More than two years have passed, the bloody disaster in Shangyu County, Tongzhou has been basically pacified, at least the city and suburbs can no longer see the traces of the bloody people, even if there are a few bloody people, I heard that they have fled to the deep mountains and old forests, and are being hunted down by a bounty that asks for money and death, but the wounds left by the bloody disaster to Feiyun City are difficult to heal in a short time.
Although the reconstruction of Feiyun City has been going on in the past two years, there are still traces left by the bloody disaster everywhere in the city, and the repair of some of the city walls in the city has not been completely completed, and there are still remnants of ruins in some of the once prosperous places and residential areas in the city, and some of the streets on both sides of the city have large blank spaces after cleaning up those ruins, because no one has taken care of them, many places in the open spaces in the city are overgrown with weeds after two years.
But this is not the most impactful, the biggest impact on Feiyun City is the population in the city, which has decreased a lot all of a sudden, although in the past two years, many Taixia people have re-moved to Feiyun City to settle under the stimulus of some favorable official policies, but the current population of Feiyun City is only one million, less than a quarter of a few years ago, which also makes this once prosperous city become a little depressed.
At this moment, it is a holy war, and in this kind of city that has experienced the disaster of blood and has become depressed, it is already a lucky thing to have a job and a full stomach.
Therefore, Xiao Er at the door of Ruyi Hotel also greeted the guests more loudly.
"The store launched a special dish today, Ruyi Bazhen, guests who spend more than six silver coins, the store also gives a pot of self-brewed sour plum wine" In the shouting of the shopkeeper, a figure was a little tired from the alley next to the Ruyi Hotel that seemed a little deserted and slowly walked out, when the figure passed under the street lamp, the light of the street lamp illuminated the face of the person, as soon as the person came, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, full of smiles, hurriedly stepped forward, the towel on his shoulder flicked, and began to take the initiative to clean the dust on the trouser hem and body for the guest.
"Come, guest officer, I haven't seen you for a long time, I haven't eaten yet, come, please come inside" The shopkeeper greeted warmly and welcomed the guests into the store.
The man raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Er, and was also slightly surprised, "You still remember me" "Why don't you remember, a month ago, didn't you come to the shop" Xiao Er smiled sincerely, "At that time, you also asked me a few words, and then rewarded me with a gold coin tip, but you are the first customer to reward me with a gold coin since I became the little second in this store, I still have that gold coin of yours, how can you say I can forget you" As he spoke, he greeted the visitor to a table on the first floor of the store and sat down at a table on the side of the street, "Look, you said you liked to sit on the side of the street, I still remember it, you sat at this table at that time."
The guest smiled indifferently, "Just bring me some food and drinks."
"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute, I'll bring it to you right away" This guest who came to Ruyi Winery for the second time was naturally Zhang Tie.
More than a month ago, Zhang Tie came to Feiyun City, looking for the whereabouts of him and Ma Aiyun's children, this more than a month, Zhang Tie almost traveled all over Shangyu County and Tongzhou where the bloody plague had been raged, met countless survivors, tried all means to inquire about the news, and even concealed his identity to let Jinpeng Bank and Tongzhou's Zhengdaolou issue a huge reward order to collect useful clues, but in the end, more than a month later, there was still no result.
Zhang Tie didn't know what that child looked like, but if it was his own blood and bones, then he must have sensed it when he saw him and could recognize him, and it was driven by this belief that Zhang Tie worked tirelessly to find him outside for more than a month.
Yesterday, after taking a turn in Tongzhou, because of the inexplicable concern in his heart, holding the last trace of luck, Zhang Tie turned back to Feiyun City, and today for a whole day, Zhang Tie was wandering around inside and outside Feiyun City, looking for it, but still found nothing, without any clues and news There were too many people who died in Feiyun City that day, and Feiyun City was set on fire by bloody people, and the entire city was almost empty, many people did not leave a trace in this world even if they died, the place where Zhang Taixuan originally placed the child was the south of Feiyun City, which has now completely become a ruin, and the residential area with the most dead people, to find a child in this situation is definitely more difficult than looking for a needle in a haystack.
Zhang Tie just went to a turn, the ruins in the residential area have been cleared out, but the weeds in that place have grown half a person tall, and when the night comes, there are still a few phosphorus fires fluttering, which is very infiltrating, and there are almost no people living around, Feiyang City is now preparing to rebuild a city guard barracks in that place After a while, the shopkeeper served Zhang Tie five dishes and a pot of wine, Zhang Tie sat by the window of the restaurant, looking at the sparse crowd on the street, eating a little woodly, but in his heart he was fantasizing about the crowd on the street, and suddenly there was a shadow of Ma Aiyun between his eyebrows, a young man who could be connected with his blood Zhang Tie gave himself only a little more than a month to find Ma Aiyun's child, if he didn't find it for more than a month, then Zhang Tie would definitely not be able to search for it endlessly, and he could only return to the Candle Dragon Territory.
After more than a month of searching, although he didn't want to face that possibility, Zhang Tie's reason told him that the child he and Ma Aiyun might have been buried in the bloody rebellion three years ago.
A sip of sour plum old wine goes down to the stomach, and there is a sweet taste in the wine, but when the wine enters the stomach, the bitter taste is only known to Zhang Tie himself:
