Jie Tang Village is a medium-sized village located on the edge of Beijing-Tianjin Road. Because it is located on a transportation thoroughfare and has special location advantages, the village's economy and service industry are deeply connected. It relies on the accumulation of potential energy from business travelers on the key path, and has now formed an end-to-end, short, fast, and high-value The new commercial complex with high conversion rate is a unicorn on the new economic track of the Ming Dynasty and a rising star in the tertiary industry blockchain in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.
To translate the above 21st century Internet slang, the general idea is: This village is next to the official road, so the villagers can live a good life by opening small and medium-sized stores such as inns, hotels, food stalls, etc.
On the fifth day of May, it was night, around Hai hour, there were two angel investors... oh no, they were two young heroes. They tied a few horses outside and walked into an inn in Jitang Village with their luggage.
Haishi is nine o'clock in the evening. The ancients also called this time period Dinghui, Rending, etc. because it is dark at this point and people have stopped activities and rested for sleep.
Of course, for us modern people, most young people are still working overtime in the company at the moment...
The waiter, who was dozing behind the counter, immediately became energetic when he saw a customer coming. The waiter is a smart young man with a good eye. The people who come into the inn at this time are definitely not "jingjian" (a dialect in the Beijing-Tianjin area, which means eating light meals on the way to "sat the tip of the tongue"), most of them are staying in the hotel. . Therefore, he stretched his arms and went directly to greet him: "Two guests, please come inside. Are you planning to stay in a small hotel?"
"Yes." Pu's carriage waiter didn't waste any time. He took out some broken silver from his arms and threw it into the waiter's hand: "I want two upper rooms, and then we can take our horses tied at the door of the store to the stables behind and feed them well. "
"Okay!" The waiter saw that the guests paid so readily, so he couldn't help but be more attentive: "Sir, do you have any other instructions?"
The Pu cart attendant handed over another string of copper coins: "Please call the chef in the store to cook some dishes for me and my brother and deliver them to the room. By the way, tell the kitchen to make sure the dishes are hot."
The hotel clerk collected the coins and responded with a smile on his face: "Okay, okay, sir, please take a rest upstairs. The food and drinks will be here shortly."
"Let's boil some hot water by the way." Yun Ming said suddenly.
"What do you want to do?"
"It's impossible to take a shower. It's okay to wipe yourself with water, right?"
"...You are so particular." Even so, the Puche Waiter still spoke upright and started to buy the labor of the shop assistant again: "Hey, this little brother, please help me fetch two buckets of hot water. "
…………
The last serious meal that Yun Ming and Pu Cheshi had was eight hours ago, and it was now warm. There is no further explanation of how the two feasted, except that they made sacrifices to the five internal organs temple and cleaned up the blood stains on their bodies (they had changed out of the clothes that were damaged during the battle in the wilderness, and they wore the clothes in their bags when they stayed in the hotel) Changing clothes), the time is almost half past ten.
"Jin Yiwei and Dongchang are attacking all over the capital right now, right?" Pu Che Shi stood in front of the window, looking up at the bright moon and sighed: "After tonight, not to mention Pu Mansion, even Jianghu will be gone."
"That's not the case."
"Why do you say that?"
Yun Ming put down the pen in his hand. He had just finished filling in the stack of experimental records: "There are thousands of sects, forces, and families of all sizes in the world, and it is simply impossible to catch them all. Even if we put aside this huge number, Not to mention, each force also has deep connections with local powerful factions.

The intertwined network of interests is so intertwined that it is absolutely impossible for the court to eliminate them all at once. "
"However, the imperial court used the fictitious divine treasure as bait to lure most of the Jianghu's head power to the capital. Once these strong men are gone, the loss to the entire Jianghu is not heavy, it is simply the loss of half of their lives." Yun Yun. Ming made a very logical prediction about the future of the world in the book: "After this crisis, the Ming Dynasty officially entered the post-martial arts era when warriors withered and martial arts declined."
"What happens next?" Pu Che Shi asked with great interest.
"No more."
"It's gone now? I thought there would be a follow-up."
"Because that's what Xiao Qi wrote about." Yun Ming put the experimental records together and was busy looking for tools to bind them into a book: "Generally speaking, this is a story about the fall of the world, and the plot is relatively cliché. , and there are no clues to dig deeper. In the context of the late Ming Dynasty, it cannot be related to the Jurchens outside the customs in the same timeline, or even Spain and Portugal, the first generation maritime hegemons in Europe. Therefore, the whole article is just a Isolated historical events are not included in the general history of the world.”
"I'll give you an objective evaluation...a short story about martial arts in an imaginary world that's quite satisfactory and has a slightly smaller structure."
Upon hearing this, the Puche attendant looked up at the ceiling of the room, as if he was talking to someone: "Ah... your straightforward comment will not be seen by Xiao Qi outside the book, right?"
"It doesn't matter if you see it, it's not rude. Besides, we discussed topics like literary creation when we were waiting for you to get up, and what I just said are almost all Xiao Qi's comments about her own works. Exact words."
"Oh? She is a modest girl."
Yun Ming nodded: "According to her, the stories she had previously recorded in the Book of Self-Redemption were all vulgar and unnutritious love affairs, so the common car accidents and cancers in romance were killed by her and absorbed into the book. Two magic weapons for the soul in it. Recently, Xiao Qi happened to be exploring the potential of his own powers, so he tried to change several writing directions. The ancient costume Jianghu scripts that our group has experienced are friendly enough. Southeast Asia will undergo drastic changes on September 2 On that night, she locked a ghost-level guard who was loyal to the Chapman family in the Book of Self-Atonement and asked him to kill zombies for several hours."
"Okay, I have to admit, compared with struggling to survive in the apocalypse, the grievances and hatreds in the world are really nothing." Pu Cheshi shrugged, left the window and sat back on the table with messy cups and plates: "Speaking of which, since The plot development of this story is very different from the original version. Are all the plans you made before still useful?"
"It's just different paths leading to the same goal. Originally, in my plan, becoming an enemy of the Jin Yiwei was a must-have, but now it just happened half a day earlier." After saving the booklet containing the experimental records, Yun Ming returned from his arms. He took out the book "Jinghong Sword Art" and flipped through it while responding to Pu Chai's question: "The emperor is planning to sacrifice the entire Pu family to play extreme games with a group of martial arts heroes. You Ming On the surface, he is the young master of the Pu family, but secretly he is the secret Jin Yiwei. Such a key figure must not be able to escape from this crisis. It is impossible for me to watch you being cooked by the imperial court, so I can only get ahead of them. I went out of the city with you to hide before I started."
"Before, I planned to rely on the information about the Shenbao conspiracy, unite people from all walks of life, and fight out of the capital to get rid of the enemy and then go our separate ways. Anyway, at that time, the court would not be able to continue to pursue the seizure. But..."
Pu Che Shishun took over the second half of what Yun Ming was about to say: "However, we unexpectedly discovered that the existence of the boundaries of the world in the book prevents us from traveling far away easily."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"Of course."
"The situation is really not optimistic. Although we did a good job in destroying the corpses and eliminating traces, and no one could find out the truth for a while, Lin He was still missing for Jin Yiwei. From the moment he mounted his horse to chase us two, our number one The suspect has been identified." The more Pu Che Shi thought about this, the more worried he became: "If you can't run away, you can only fight. But just the two of us, how many people from the court can we deal with? A master of Ouchi? Unless we are both possessed by Rambo, there is no way we can survive."
Yun Ming's focus was diverted at this moment: "Oh? Have you seen "First Blood"?"
"Yes, after all, in the many years after the War of Fire, due to the decline in productivity, there was no decent entertainment in the world. When I was idle and bored when I was a child, I collected a lot of old movies from the last century and watched old CDs. Kill time."
"So I guess you must have Titanic and Mr. Zombie in your collection?"
"Hey, you still remember that time I fooled you when we first met. I do have those two discs, and I have reviewed them several times." Pu Cheshi felt that Yun Ming's ability to grasp key points was obviously different from ordinary people. : "But what are you asking for?"
"It's nothing, it's just that I haven't talked about this with anyone for a long time. Film and television works from half a century ago are not so unfamiliar to me living in the early 21st century, but for me in the middle of this century People are completely different." Yun Ming sighed with emotion: "Sorry, I got too far away, let's get back to the top priority."
Yun Ming conveniently took a few small wine cups on the table, swept away a clean area, and used the wine cups instead of war games: "The situation is very clear now. The imperial court is our enemy, and you and I are weak and have no way to retreat. You can retreat. If you fight hard, you will die."
The Pu chariot attendant also took out a wine cup and threw it on the table with a "duang" sound: "Suppose this is Yue Kuohai, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, do you think we can hug his lap?"
"Difficult. Although we haven't dealt with the original version of Yue Kuohai in this time travel, Lin He's attitude towards us is clear at a glance, which is enough to draw inferences." Yun Ming flicked the wine cup representing Yue Kuohai with a flick of his finger. Yuan: "It seems that Zhong Yi, who traveled through time in Zhou Mu, has limited influence on Lord Yue in Zhou Mu. He probably won't recognize us."
"Yes, this means that we are completely helpless in the world of the book." Pu Cheshi played with the wine cup and asked tentatively: "Now that we are in this situation, should we consider contacting Xiao Qi and asking her to Let us out?"
"I did have this idea before, but I estimate that if we withdraw now, all our previous efforts will be wasted, and there will not be a third game for us to travel through."
"How to say?"
"Based on the development of the plot, tonight's court action is the climax of this martial arts story. After this, the whole story is essentially finished. The stage has collapsed, and we have no characters left to play."
"Is this just your guess?"
"right."
The Pu car attendant was speechless for a moment, obviously weighing the pros and cons in his mind. It took him a while to finish the calculation: "Well, let's not talk about whether your guess is correct or not. It would not be good just for us to contact Xiao Qi. manage."
"Yes, after a total of one lap, we still have to stay." The Puche servant scratched his head. He was really at his wits end: "It's too hard to fight against the imperial court. We have no way or chance to surrender with our hands, and the risk of crossing the border of the map is too high. Too big. Fighting, peace, and running are all blocked. Yun Ming, do you have any plans?"
