That night, a strong wind suddenly blew, causing chaos inside and outside the capital.

Because it was the second update, most people were already asleep. Suddenly, they heard a sharp whistling leaking from the cracks in the window. Then the things placed outside the house were clattering and kept ringing. They quickly turned over and called out to the people at home in a stack of sounds.

"Where does this strong wind come from?"

People packed up their houses in panic, but during this time they saw tiles falling to the ground, and they hurried in the house and dared not go out.

Although there were winds in spring in previous years, there was no such exaggeration. Moreover, it was midnight and it was dark outside and nothing could be seen. The lanterns hanging in the neighborhood were blown away, and some places were still in unlucky to catch fire.

"It's time to go!"

Someone knocked on the copper basin and shouted nervously.

The antique who was originally sheltering from the wind in the alley was also running to put out the fire.

There are high walls in the square, and the average fire cannot reach far away, but the wind is fast tonight, and no one knows how it will burn. Between the squares, there is not far apart from each other's houses. Saving people is like saving yourself. At this moment, everyone is not afraid and rushed to the clay tank and the well to get water to put out the fire.

Fortunately, the wind only blew for a while and soon calmed down.

There was a faint thunder in the sky, as if it was about to rain.

Let’s talk about Mo Li when she heard the sound of wind, she pushed the window out. When she saw the faint light of fire in the distance, mixed with people’s shouts, she immediately put on her clothes and climbed over the wall and went out.

——General Liu specially ordered someone to find a room for them, very close to the wall.

There are all official houses near Yiguangmen, and there are no people living there. It is empty and there is no trouble. However, the situation in several private houses outside Yiguangmen is wrong. It happens to be a wind here, and the wind is surprisingly strong.

Meng Qi followed Mo Li and rushed forward all the way.

Those larger houses are hung with sheep horn lamps, so there is no danger of water flowing. Fires are set off in time and servants are extinguished in time. The main danger is between the low houses where ordinary people live.

Relying on his high light skills and good eyesight, Mo Li arrived at Xichangfang, which caught the most fires.

Everyone hurriedly ran to the fire with the bucket, shouting here and there again, in a mess.

Mo Li casually looked at it and found that there were people wearing single clothes, yamen runners stationed in Xichangfang to investigate, and also saw the imperial guards wearing armored clothes, including men, women, young and old, and all kinds of people.

When Mo Li sneaked in, no one looked at him any more, and someone even stuffed him a wooden barrel.

It's dark and only the fire.

There were many figures. If it weren't for the over-the-top martial arts, it would have been rushed by the crowd at this time, and Mo Li would have been unable to find Meng Qi.

There are water tanks in the market, scattered everywhere and managed by the Taijing Prefecture Office to prevent the fire from spreading when the water is flowing.

Mo Li didn't know where the water tank was at first, so she followed the crowd for a while, and then was pulled by Meng Qi to the nearest water tank.

Because the rescue was prompt, the fire was not too big. Otherwise, Mo Li would think that it would be to raise the water tank with one hand to put out the fire quickly, or to ask the Taijing Dragon Vein to point out the groundwater source and dig it out faster.

The second method is not used if you can do it. The water can be sprayed out, but it cannot be pressed back.

There are people nearby and houses.

If this place is turned into a pond, wouldn’t people be homeless?

Fortunately, with the obscurity of the night, no one could see other people's actions clearly. When they carried a bucket of water, Mo Li and Meng Qi could run ten rounds.

After pouring two buckets of water, I heard crying from inside. Mo Li found that it was better to go directly to save people than to put out the fire.

The smoke is too strong, and even if the fire is extinguished, the ground will still be hot. People outside cannot enter for a while, and people inside cannot get out, and they may choke to death.

Mo Li stuffed the wooden barrel to a commoner who came out to put out the fire, and then used internal force to sweep away the smoke and entered the smoke-filled house.

"There is movement over there, and it seems that someone is."

Meng Qi pointed in a direction, then picked up a child who was crying and went out.

Mo Li knew it, it would be better for the two of them to scatter and save people, after all, there was more than one place where the fire broke out.

After such a busy life, Mo Li was covered in smoke and her hair inevitably got a little bit on her face. This was because of his high martial arts skills. If someone else had probably had a gray face at this time.

The fire broke out shortly after, and the house had not collapsed yet, so naturally no one was pressed under the beam.

The trapped person was just drowsy, some were scratched and fell, and more smoke was choked.

Occasionally, two people were awake and felt like they were flying in the clouds. They flew up in a blink of an eye. They stood in the crowd outside in a blink of an eye. They were so shocked that they shouted, but Mo Li had already walked away.

In less than half an hour, all the fires in Xikangfang were extinguished.

Mo Li didn't stop either. When he left the house, he happened to meet Meng Qi, so he rushed to a place where there was still a fire in the distance.

"What's going on with this gust of wind? There were such strong winds in Taijing in previous years?"

Mo Li asked this because he felt something strange in the wind.

Compared to the intoxicating and abundant spiritual energy of Shangyun Mountain, the gust of wind seemed turbid and wild. Fortunately, the spiritual energy of Taijing still existed and quickly resolved it, so the wind disappeared shortly after it blew.

Meng Qi shook his head and said, "This is the turbid air from the earth's veins. If you accumulate too much, it will explode. Has the doctor not encountered it before?"

"…Qimaoshan does not have as much spiritual energy as Taijing. Even if there is turbid air, it will be difficult for me to detect it."

"The doctor was joking. Isn't it the effect of turbid air in Pingzhou in winter? This is not because of our dragon veins. On the contrary, if we encounter abundant spiritual energy, it will stop quickly."

When Mo Li heard this, she couldn't help but think about the day when the black dragon appeared in Zhushan County and the blizzard suddenly stopped the sky clearing.

Meng Qi continued: "It is actually not completely true to say that it is turbid air. Although Taijing is occasionally affected by the dragon vein spiritual energy, in most cases, wind, rain, thunder and lightning have nothing to do with the dragon vein, and it exists itself."

The strong wind suddenly blew, and even the Taijing dragon vein was caught off guard.

The two of them suddenly stopped because the fire had disappeared.

Mo Li looked around and saw only smoke, but no fire again.

"Luckily this is Taijing." Mo Li whispered.

He thought of the tragic scene when Qiuling County was in terrorist movement, and the fire that followed almost engulfed the entire county town, and many people who could have saved died.

"There are many people in Taijing, and there have been disasters of water flowing through all dynasties. During the Chen Dynasty, thousands of people died. Word of mouth was passed on. The Chu Dynasty paid special attention and ordered people to check it every month. Therefore, the people were very careful and did not dare to pile up easily ignited debris outside the house."

They stood in the alley, and a group of people carrying wooden barrels came towards them, complaining as they walked.

"In previous years, there were occasional strong winds in spring, but some things were blown away. Why was it so powerful this year?"

"You count, first the star on the day of the New Year, and then the strange phenomenon appeared in the sky, and now this demonic wind is still blowing..."

"Silence your life!"

Someone whispered, and the Imperial Guards were still searching for rebels in the market. Wouldn't it be a death to say such words?

I couldn't say anything, but I thought so in my heart. Everyone returned home and whispered to their families when they closed the doors and windows.

The old men with white hair, listening to the situation outside, sighed with crutches: "I'm afraid the weather will change."

Within 60 years, Taijing has changed its surnames. The Chen Dynasty lasted for 300 years. It was the Chu Dynasty's turn that only 39 years ago. Now the Qi Dynasty has shown signs of instability in just 16 years. What is the reason?

"I won't say anything about the Chen Dynasty earlier, the foolish monarchs and corrupt officials harm the people!"

The old man cursed a few words, then said melancholy, "When we were young, our lives were much faster than now. You young people, born in Taijing, have poor family life, you just need to be diligent and honest and can fill your stomach and support your children. When you have nothing to do, you can watch and play tricks in the tiles. When you are obedient in the teahouse, you will feel that life is enjoyable! Cough, this was not the case before!"

The older man likes to nag, but his children and grandchildren respond, but they have no idea where to go.

"...Rice and grain are cheap, there are rare items everywhere, and the remaining money is enough in your pocket. Did you lack sugar at that time? Now you can't bear to buy a candied haw for my grandson. I'm so pitiful that I cried like that."

The old man's grandson was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes. When he heard the candied haws, he suddenly opened his eyes and pulled his parents' clothes. The latter rushed to pull the child to sleep, and complained.

The old man trembled to find the wine jar at home, and found that the wine was gone. He weighed the money this month and bought it again. He couldn't help but nag again, saying the Western Regions wine from Hu Ji's wine shop, the soft peach blossom wine at the entrance to the south of the Yangtze River, and the snake wine from the snow-capped mountains outside the pass.

However, the listeners disagreed and felt that their father started to whine again.

"...Don't you believe it? There is nothing strange about peach blossom brewing. I heard that there are so many people in Jiangnan. That person who sold alcohol back then got one of the court... It seems that he was named Meng. He can't remember what official he was. In short, after receiving his praise, he was recommended, he became popular in Taijing. Now, even the emperor cannot drink this wine. How can it be less expensive?"

When he took a shortcut, Mo Li, who was passing by the roof, was slightly stunned and turned to look at Meng Qi.

Meng Qi subconsciously looked around and found no accidents.

He is a distance from the roof where Mo Li is located. The martial arts masters have sharp ears, but they also have a range. They will not concentrate on listening to the movements nearby without any effort.

Immediately after Meng Qi came to the doctor, he finally heard the old man in the room muttering: "The Western Regions wine and roasted lamb were loved by Mr. Deng in the past, and he always sent his servants to buy it."

Meng Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, and the mutton in that house was indeed not bad.

"Now there is only one in the East City wine shop left. The Western Regions wine has become more expensive because of the cut-off of trade routes. Could it be that the doctor is interested? Then I have to go to the palace to find it."

"no."

Mo Li shook her head, and he looked at Meng Qi and said seriously, "What the father-in-law said just now was peach blossom wine, it seems to be related to you?"

"That is the Chu Dynasty's tribute wine. Now I have to go to Jiangnan to find it." Meng Qi nodded and then smiled, "I was drinking with my old friend in a restaurant. The shopkeeper of the restaurant didn't know the wine. He also thought the mouth was too soft and thought it was the favorite of the people in the south and could not sell it at a high price in Taijing, so he refused to buy the wine brought by the wine dealer."

Among the founding heroes of the past, there happened to be one who had a good wine. When he heard that there was wine, he immediately called the merchant who sold the wine and bought a jar of peach blossom wine. It bloomed on the spot for everyone to drink.

"...I drank a cup and felt strange that the wine actually had a hint of spiritual energy." Meng Qi continued to recall, "It was a coincidence that the place where this peach blossom brew was brewed was Feihe Mountain. Because of its abundant spiritual energy, the water used for brewing wine was different. Marquis of Jingyuan once fell into a dark disease on the battlefield. Every time it was stormy, the wounded area was painful. I recommend him to drink this wine more. Later, it spread. Because it was not intoxicating, women could drink it, and it became popular in Taijing."

"I see."

Mo Li relieved her doubts and continued to walk back.

Meng Qi felt strange and asked, "Why did the doctor not drink alcohol? He even stopped asking about the peach blossom wine and my past years?"

The national master thought to himself: Could it be that the doctor is already concerned about me and wants to find out clearly when he hears it is related to me?

"I have never heard of this wine before, because peach blossoms can be used as medicine..."

Mo Li paused. Most of the prescriptions involved in this medicine are for conditioning. If you don’t use medicine, just soak it in wine. Shennong Bencao Jing happens to say this: Take peach blossom buds and angelica, and soak them together with old wine for more than a month, and take them out and drink them.
