After walking about ten miles, you can see the towering city gate tower.

Fu Ling'er and the others finally stepped onto the spacious bluestone road, which extended all the way to the tall and majestic city gate.

The bluestone road is very smooth, without any cracks or bumps, and it feels very comfortable to walk on. Tall trees with lush branches and leaves are planted on both sides of the road, forming a green corridor that shields pedestrians from the scorching summer sun.

Just from this wide and smooth official road, we can see that the mayor of Tianyue City is a particular person.

At this moment, people were hurrying on the road, including peddlers carrying loads, travelers carrying bags, and monks in bright clothes with swords hanging around their waists. They were walking, riding horses, or sitting in gorgeous animal carts. The clatter of horse hooves and wheels intertwined, forming a lively scene.

Among these pedestrians, the most eye-catching ones were those driving gorgeous animal carts. The animal carts were extremely beautifully decorated, with brightly painted bodies and exquisite tassels and bells hanging on the canopy, making crisp sounds. The magical beast red flame horses pulling the carts were also of excellent breed, with shiny hair and steady steps.

From this configuration, we can see that the people in the carriage are either rich or noble. They occasionally lift the door curtain to leisurely enjoy the scenery on the roadside. If you listen carefully, you can also hear the occasional laughter and leisurely voices coming from the carriage. Obviously, the owner of the animal carriage is in a very good mood.

The group slowly walked into the city gate. The scene before them was just as the bluestone road they had seen before had indicated. The city was far more prosperous than they had imagined.

The street is wide and long, as if it has no end, stretching in all directions. On both sides of the street, quaint shops are springing up like bamboo shoots after rain, and the goods displayed in the shops are eye-catching from time to time.

The shop signs also have their own characteristics. Some are plaques inscribed with gold characters, some are signs with exquisite patterns painted on them, and some are three-dimensional signs carved from wood that appear lifelike.

The streets were bustling with people coming and going. There were hawkers carrying loads and hawking their wares, rich kids in fancy clothes strolling around, businessmen in a hurry looking around, and children playing. The laughter and bargaining of people intertwined together to form a symphony full of the breath of life.

A group of people were walking on the street. Their outstanding appearance attracted many people to stop and look at them. Everyone was used to it and walked straight towards the tallest building in the city.

Soon, they came closer. This was the largest inn in Tianyue City - Yuelai Inn.

Seeing someone coming to the door, and a guest dressed gorgeously and with extraordinary temperament, it is obvious that he is a wealthy person, so he has to be served carefully. The waiter came to greet him with a warm smile on his face.

"Oh my! We are honored to have you here! Please come in, please come in. May I ask if you would like to stay in our hotel or just stop by for a night?"

"Waiter, I'm looking for someone. May I ask if a customer named Lu has left a message in your store? There are fourteen of them, all our friends. They agreed to come to your store to look for someone?" Ling You stepped forward to negotiate and asked if Lu Qianming and others were there.

"Lu? Oh, sorry, sir, there hasn't been a guest named Lu so far." The waiter pondered for a moment, and he didn't seem to remember such a group of people. "Maybe your friends haven't arrived yet?"

"That's fine. Just arrange a quiet courtyard for us first, and then arrange a table for us. Remember, show me all your signs.

And! If there is a guest named Lu who I just mentioned, please take him to our courtyard." After saying that, Lingyou took out a purse and poured out two gold coins for the second brother.

"This is a reward for you. This is the rent."

"Okay! Thank you for the gift. I will arrange a guest house for you right away," the second brother took the gift and immediately smiled from ear to ear. He liked open-minded guests. It was obvious that he was in a very happy mood at the moment.

Just kidding, he has been working at Yuelai Inn for so long, but this is the first time he has seen such a generous guest. He gave him a gift that was equivalent to one and a half months' salary. He had to serve him well.

So, the second brother ordered the kitchen to prepare the table, and at the same time he quickly arranged for them the largest courtyard in the inn - Qiushi Garden.

After the registration was completed, the waiter enthusiastically took the guests to Qiushi Garden. Yuelai Inn is indeed the largest inn in Tianyue City. All the way to the back garden, there are exquisite and gorgeous courtyards.

Lingyou, Xiaozi, Xuanchen and others chatted with the second brother along the way. Perhaps the gold coins worked, as they found out a lot about the big and small things in Tianyue City.

For example, the mayor of Tianyue City is a good mayor who is diligent in his work and loves his people. He usually comes to the city from time to time to understand the people's sentiments, but I haven't seen the mayor for a long time recently.

For example, the Hong family, the largest family in the city, has had many happy events recently. I heard that the old girl of the Hong family is finally getting married, and it is said that she is looking for a son-in-law who will live with the family.

"A son-in-law who lives with the family? Doesn't the Hong family have any sons?" Xiao Zi asked quickly.

"Well, of course I have a son, but he died in an accident a few years ago. He got into a conflict with someone in Yihonglou and was accidentally beaten to death by the other party. It caused a lot of trouble in the city and Yihonglou was almost demolished. Later, the city lord stepped in to mediate and Yihonglou was saved."

"So what happened next? Did the Hong family just let it go?"

"How is that possible? Do you know why the city lord's words are effective? It's because the old lady of the Hong family has taken a fancy to the city lord and has been pursuing him for many years.

But the city lord just didn't like it and kept avoiding him. If the city lord and the owner of Yihong Tower were not good friends, the city lord would not have gone to the Hong family to mediate.

I heard that the head of the Hong family didn't want to agree to the city lord's proposal at first, but Miss Hong kept pestering him and crying. In the end, he had no choice but to agree to the city lord's proposal in consideration of the generous compensation.

The Hong family originally wanted the other party to pay with his life, but finally compromised for their daughter. "The second brother sighed twice, it's not worth it for Master Hong! How unjust his death was.

"Oh! So this Master Hong is also a man who loves his daughter?"

"Isn't it? Because of his old girl, who in the whole city doesn't laugh at his family?"

Not long after, the group, who had been listening to gossips in Tianyue City, finally arrived in front of a courtyard under the leadership of the second brother. When they opened the door, they saw that the courtyard was surrounded by a lush fruit forest, as if it was a small world isolated from the world.

Walking into the yard, the first thing that catches your eye is the dazzling array of fruit trees. There are all kinds of common fruit trees planted here, including apple trees, pear trees, peach trees, apricot trees, etc., each of which is lush and full of vitality.
