Wang Ruhuai led his subordinates to slowly rode out of the schoolyard gate. This was an old schoolyard, which may have been established at the beginning of the establishment of Yanghe Acropolis. At the beginning of the country, many plans were made by Emperor Taizu himself. Yanghe Wei, Tiancheng Wei, and Datong Wei and other many garrisons were all established by Emperor Taizu Gao during the Hongwu period. Later, Datong became border towns everywhere, border wall castles were repaired, and Yanghe Acropolis became the military and political center. In a flash of more than 200 years, the city of pure military garrisons had become a central city other than Datong. Although it was not big, it was densely populated and had many residents. There were empty flat ground inside the schoolyard. There were dense buildings around the gate of the schoolyard, most of which were buildings, which opened shops on the ground floor to do business, courtyard production and operation, and people on the upper floors of the building.

There are many similar ancient buildings in Shanxi, including Xinping Fort, which are all preserved in later generations. This is a proof of the development of Shanxi merchants at that time... Unlike the Jin merchants in the Qing Dynasty who were doing monopoly transactions as royal merchants, the Shanxi merchants who were scattered on the border at this time, from Khahu Fort to Zhangjiakou, they were all hardworking, cautious, and smart and generous. They were also a group of excellent merchants...

Since Yanghecheng is not big, every inch of land is valuable. There are a large number of commercial banks and residential buildings outside the school site, and many small businessmen set up stalls outside the school site to do business...

Various snacks, such as candy cubes, noodles, chaotic picks, flat eaters, and mutton-faced meat. They use extremely sharp blades to produce tissue-like lamb-faced meat. They cook in the soup pot in a blink of an eye. They are served with sesame oil and chopped green onion, which is delicious.

In addition, there are shoes and clothes repairing, umbrellas, big cakes, soup cakes, and oil... There are so many people. At first glance, at least a hundred vendors gathered at the entrance of the schoolyard and several alleys of nearby folk houses. A group of children were playing shuttlecocks in the open space. The Chinese New Year was about to be celebrated. The people around were smiling on their faces, and the little kids were having fun. Wang Ruhuai didn't think anything was abnormal... But after thinking about it, when he changed places, he didn't seem to be so peaceful.

Wang Ruhuai is from Guide, Henan. He took leave two years ago and returned to his hometown. He passed many prefectures and counties on the way back and forth. From the fifth to sixth year of Tianqi, floods and droughts occurred in many places in Shandong and Henan. The court did not exempt taxes, money and grain, nor did it provide relief. The local area was quite in ruins and miserable... Later, Hutchison Commercial Bank gradually penetrated into various prefectures and counties, making local commerce prosperous, and it could be considered to have some vitality restored, but it was still much worse than the peace and happiness situation thirty years ago.

Yanghe, but ordinary acropolis, is far from the northern prefectures such as Guide Zhending Baoding, but in terms of prosperity and happiness, this inconspicuous small city is probably no less than those famous city and prefectures...

Wang Ruhuai did not think about it carefully. These things were not something he could worry about. He was not a person who was close to the people and did not manage the people. These things had nothing to do with him. What he was concerned about now was whether as Lu Xiangsheng said, was there really a lot of detailed works in front of the door?

There are many private fellows following Wang Ruhuai. Wang Ruhuai is surrounded by people, but his expression is still extremely nervous...

"Master, where are you going?"

An Needle asked a question at the right time and confirmed Wang Ruhuai's determination.

"Go to Xinpingbao, something big happens!" Wang Ruhuai replied loudly, and at the same time whipped his horse and ran towards the city gate.

As a civil servant, he should have been sitting in a sedan chair, but Wang Ruhuai came to Yanghe for "military affairs". In order to motivate his subordinates and generals, he usually travels around the world by riding horses. Now he is whipping horses and whipping whips, and he is still quite heroic.

The Needles were shocked, of course they hurriedly followed and ran to the city gate with the head of the family...

Wang Ruhuai ran a hundred steps away, and saw that there was nothing strange around him, and then he let go of his heart, which was beating rapidly. He also felt funny. Just under this bright world, he was a patrolman in Datong, and had dozens of inner-city troops around him, and had more than ten thousand troops in the city, but he didn't know what he was afraid or nervous...

He couldn't help but despise Lu Xiangsheng. He looked smart and capable, and had a very good reputation. Why did he say such unreasonable words?

"master……"

At this time, a Needle suddenly shouted in a voice. Wang Ruhuai was displeased and was about to scold him. When he saw that Needle around him looked like he had seen a ghost, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

At this time, Wang Ruhuai finally turned around.

Behind him is a strange scene, a wonder that Wang Ruhuai will never forget for life.

Behind the running horse team were hundreds of vendors running, including flat food loads, wonton carrys, wine sellers, oil sellers, and umbrella repairers. Countless carry loads followed them swayingly, and at least one or two hundred people were running with Wang Ruhuai's horse team!

There were many people upstairs around, and it seemed that there were also many drinkers, diners, passers-by, or passers-by, or idle men who were just hanging out with their children, or basking in the sun at the street corner, chatting and jokes. At this moment, it seemed like a picture, and someone was taken closer to the front.

The same scene, the same crowd, the same expression, the same business, the difference is that everyone moved forward a hundred steps in an instant.

Wang Ruhuai's hair was blown up all over his body!

What is this? It’s sunny and sunny, but Wang Ruhuai feels scared as if he is in a cemetery in the middle of the night, even more afraid than walking alone in the cemetery!

People may not be afraid of ghosts, because knowing that the underworld is an unspeakable thing may not come true. The situation in front of them is far more terrifying than seeing ghosts. This strangeness and the real threat hidden behind the strange scenes are far more terrifying than the few ghost fires in the mass grave.

Wang Ruhuai had never seen such a scene in his life, and he had never imagined that he would see such a scene! This was completely beyond his experience and beyond his imagination. He had no idea. Even if he had a nightmare, he did not expect that he would encounter such a scene...

Everyone was scared almost instantly, everyone had a dead face. Their face turned blue-gray, their eyes were round, and their bodies were shaking uncontrollably...

This is not a fault for these people being too timid. Just imagine, if you walk alone in the downtown city, everything will be normal, but in a blink of an eye, the style of painting suddenly changes. In the downtown city, all other people are ghosts except themselves. This kind of horror and panic is probably something that people who have experienced it cannot understand.

Within a while, Wang Ruhuai couldn't speak at all. He had never experienced what was happening in front of him and had no experience at all. He didn't know how to react, even if he spoke, he didn't know how to say it. His throat choked and felt very dry. In a short period of time, it seemed that his saliva had dried up. The people around him were also seeing ghosts. One of the Needian pointed behind him, staring at him with big eyes, but he only kept saying a word, but he couldn't speak in a word.

But the people who followed have already performed their duties again. The vendors continued to shout, the pedestrians continued to pass by, and the sun changed places and continued to bask in the sun...

Everything seemed to have not changed at all, but Wang Ruhuai and others were confused and misread the scene, and no abnormality occurred at all.

There was even a flat food picker. The water boiled. The vendor took out the flat food from it. A casual man came over and picked it up with a bowl. He actually sat next to the tie and ate it as if nothing had happened.

Wang Ruhuai's forehead was filled with cold sweat, and he was defeated by unprecedented fear. He shivered on the horse's back for a long time, and he seemed to have been sucked into a picture, unable to extricate himself for a while.

Later, suddenly there was a sound of exercise in the military camp and the sound of golden drums came out again. It seemed that a plug was pulled out in Wang Ruhuai's ears. The sound was infused into the ear canal like hot water. An unprecedented sense of comfort and security emerged, and finally the Datong patrol restored his calmness.

"Go back home, go home immediately."

Wang Ruhuai hissed and ordered, and in just a moment, his voice became hoarse.

This time, the Needs did not dare to speak. Everyone gathered together, as if they were in danger and curled up in a ball of thorns. They pressed their hands on their waists and tried hard to squeeze together. People were next to people, and war horses were next to war horses. The crowd was too dense, and many people almost knocked off the horse.

In such a very embarrassing situation, dozens of Needlemen surrounded Wang Ruhuai and walked forward together. This time, they did not dare to go to the city gate, nor did they dare to speak loudly towards Xinping Castle. Needlemen were sweating like slurry, and finally surrounded Wang Ruhuai and returned to the patrol residence. After entering the gate, they all hurriedly dismounted and closed the gate. Some people sat on the ground and couldn't stand up for a long time.

"Li Er, who sells flat food, is Yang Heren, why is it a detailed work of Hutchison?"

"I have bought flat food from him many times and beat him up!"

"It's so unlucky. I never like to eat these foods, but I think the guy who sells wine is also a detailed work of Hutchison. It's so unlucky. It's scary to think about it."

"The person who sells mutton-faced meat uses a very fast knife. I have always wondered why he is so experienced and skillful with a knife. Now it seems that he is also a good knife player."

"Damn it, I can't afford to offend me, I can't afford to offend me."

Many Needles couldn't help but talk. They had just experienced such a strange thing and were in a state of great excitement. Only a few of the most calm people helped Wang Ruhuai walk through the Yimen Gate and went to the study room in the east wing to rest.

Wang Ruhuai sat on the chair without coming back to his senses for a while.

After a long time, he suddenly remembered something and ordered someone to say, "Call Wang Qi to come back quickly, don't cause trouble in the city, and don't ask him to reveal the news about the coming from the capital."

The two needs quickly went out to find someone. They had not come back by the evening. Wang Ruhuai didn't even have the intention to eat supper. After eating a few snacks, he closed his eyes and rested...

At this point, of course there is no way to completely reject the court's request. Wang Ruhuai asked to go out for Datong. If he could not act according to the court's will, then what's the use of this? Not only would Huo Weihua and others doubt his ability, but it would be very unfavorable to their future careers. Even Wang Ruhuai's current power in Datong will be difficult to protect.
