    Wide sea diving, sky high the birds to fly.  Chen Daoning has never studied, but at this moment he suddenly broke away from his prison and ran wildly on the snowy field alone. These two poems are the best portrayal of his happy mood.  Unlike Kaizhou, which is mountainous, Lingzhou is mostly plains. Chen Daoning ran up a hill and looked around, seeing a vast expanse of white between the sky and the earth, and his mind was suddenly opened.  However, this excitement quickly calmed down. Chen Daoning had never traveled far until he was eleven years old. After running wildly for a while, he didn't know where to go.  He has no relatives or friends, and his only goal in life seems to be to seek revenge on the unknown old man. Of course, in the short term, he must also avoid being hunted by the monks of the Dragon and Tiger Sect.  But Chen Daoning is not depressed because he has been like this since he was a child.  Now no one can bully him, and he is also wearing golden fur boots. There is a lot of gold in his bag. From now on, he will have no worries about food and clothing. It will be like a fairy life.  Chen Daoning walked aimlessly in the snow. Before he knew it, it was already dark. In the dark wilderness in the distance, there were occasionally a few roars of wild beasts, which looked eerie and terrifying.  The Northern Qi Dynasty and the Great Zhou Dynasty fought against each other for twenty-three years. It was not until more than ten years ago that the country was destroyed and merged into the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was divided into three states: Ling, Ji, and You.  The three states have experienced successive wars, coupled with the invasion of northern barbarians from time to time, the total population at this time is only more than two million.  In a wilderness like this, it is common to see no human beings for hundreds of miles.  Chen Daoning walked until midnight before he discovered an official road. The wheel tracks left by carriages could still be seen in the snow.  Chen Daoning continued to walk along the official road in high spirits. At dawn, he finally saw the outline of a big city ahead.  This city is called Chong'an City. It was the name given by Emperor Zhao Kang of the Zhou Dynasty after Zhao Cheng conquered the city.  Before that, Chong'an City had always been called "Zhennan City". It was the third largest city in the destroyed Northern Qi Kingdom.  The blood of the country's soldiers flowed under this city.  When Chen Daoning arrived outside the city, it was not yet time to open the city gate.  ¡° If it were a large city in the south of the Zhou Kingdom, there would have been a long queue to enter the city, and there must be many residential tea sheds outside the city to provide convenience for travelers.  It is a pity that the war back then was too tragic. When Chong'an City was at its most prosperous, it had a population of 500,000, but now it is less than 100,000. This is the result of Qi Duke Zhao Cheng's more than ten years of cultivation.  Chen Daoning, a boy from a mountain village, had only seen Longjuyi from across the river in the past. He had longed for the prosperity of Longjuyi. He heard that the beggars there had better food than he did.  Longjuyi is just a commercial town without a city wall. How can it be as good as one ten thousandth of Chong'an City?  At this time, Chen Daoning stood under the city, looking up at the tall and solid city wall, and his heart was filled with shock.  "This must be the biggest city in the world!" Chen Daoning thought in his heart.  When Chen Daoning was looking up at the tall city wall, more than a dozen people outside the city gate waiting to enter the city were looking up at him.  ¡°If Chen Daoning were standing here yesterday, all dressed in rags (damaged by the flying swords of the Dragon and Tiger Sect monks), he would definitely be regarded as a little beggar.  But now, Chen Daoning is wearing leopard skin boots, a white jade belt around his waist, and a sable fur snow cap on his head. Not to mention the inside of the clothes, the exposed fur robe is already very noble.  In addition, Chen Daoning is not ugly, and with his matching clothes, passers-by think he is a rich young master from some family.  It's just that this young master is a little strange. He actually dares to go out alone without a follower. He doesn't even sit in a comfortable carriage and walks all the way here.  "Gah" The time has come, and the heavy city gate slowly opens.  Chen Daoning didn't know what queuing meant, so he walked past more than a dozen passers-by and walked towards the door.  The passers-by who were jumped in line did not dare to say anything. In the eyes of the world, it is natural for the rich and powerful to jump in line. If you queue with ordinary people, you will be degrading your status.  The soldiers guarding the city wanted to stop Chen Daoning to collect some money from entering the city, but because Chen Daoning was young and dressed in rich clothes, they couldn't figure out his details for a while. After a slight hesitation, the soldiers guarding the city let him go.  The doorway of the city gate is very deep, three to four feet long. After passing through the long doorway, a wide avenue with neat houses on both sides appears in front of you.  Chen Daoning, a country boy who had never seen the world, looked around as soon as he entered the city, curiously looking at everything in the city.  ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????It  Chen Daoning saw a child about his age crying loudly. The child's mother yelled and cursed a few words, then spent money to buy a bunch of candied haws and stuffed them into the child's hands. The child suddenly broke down in tears and started laughing. ??The mother wiped her son's nose and tears with a coarse cloth towel, while the child just smiled and ate the candied haws.  Chen Daoning felt inexplicably sad when he saw it, turned around and walked into another street with a cold face.  ??Wandering until noon, the hungry Chen Daoning was attracted by the aroma of wine and meat.  The name of this restaurant is very tacky, it¡¯s called Fugui Building.  The decoration of Fugui Building is also very luxurious. Even the pillars at the door are painted gold. The three golden characters "Fugui Building" on the plaque can blind the eyes of the poor.  "You bastard, go somewhere else. You've disturbed Fuguilou's business, and you can't afford to pay for it with your dog's life!" At the door of the restaurant, the waiter was kicking and scolding a little beggar.  The little beggar is about twelve or thirteen years old, taller than Chen Daoning.  However, he was much thinner than Chen Daoning. The exposed chest was full of ribs, and the flesh was sunken into the ribs.  Especially his face, with high cheekbones and deeply sunken cheeks and eye sockets, like a mummy.  "Woof woof woof!" The little beggar was beaten, and a skinny mangy dog ??suddenly jumped out from beside him and rushed towards the waiter.  "Oh my god!" The waiter was startled and quickly backed away. He grabbed a stick from the side and hit the mangy dog ??on the head.  "Ouch" The mangy dog ??was probably too hungry to have any strength. After being hit hard with a stick, he was in so much pain that he couldn't get up from the ground.  The waiter hit the mangy dog ??with a stick again, as if he wanted to kill the vicious dog.  The little beggar next to him suddenly threw himself on top of the mangy dog ??and helped the dog block a few sticks. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain without making a sound.  "It turns out there are people who are worse off than me." Chen Daoning looked at it for a while and was very relieved, but he couldn't help but feel sympathy for the beggar. He walked over and snatched the stick from the waiter's hand.  "Who the hell" The waiter cursed halfway. When he saw Chen Daoning's attire, he immediately swallowed the curse words in his throat. He bowed with a shy face and said with a smile, "Young master, please come in quickly. What do you want to eat?"  ? Our Fugui Tower's Fugui Duck is one of the best in the North" "Bring up all the delicious food!" Chen Daoning carried a large bag of gold ingots on his back and spoke with confidence.  "Okay!" The waiter is not afraid that Chen Daoning will have no money to pay the bill. The pearl on Chen Daoning's hat is enough to buy Fugui Building.  Chen Daoning was led into the store by the waiter and sat down. Everyone in the restaurant lobby looked at him with suspicion.  Firstly, he was surprised that Chen Daoning went to a restaurant to eat alone at such a young age, and secondly, he was constantly speculating about Chen Daoning's outfit.  They may not know that the materials all over their clothes are tributes given by the emperor, but the jade pearls on their hats and belts cannot fool anyone.  "Good guy, the one on the hat is a Dongzhu. It's as big as a pigeon egg and worth at least tens of thousands of taels of silver." "You want to buy such a big Dongzhu for ten thousand taels of silver? You can't even buy it for a hundred thousand taels. So.  The big Dongzhu was all treated as tribute. Hiding it privately is tantamount to rebellion!" "That's right. I think this young master must be from the royal family. I heard that he may be a young master from a noble family.  The Holy Father is very generous and often rewards ministers with treasures. " "Looking at him alone, he might be the young prince who escaped. Besides, I heard that the young prince is only six years old.  Can't you even look down on your own son? " "" Amidst the whispers of the diners, the food Chen Daoning ordered was served quickly, and Chen Daoning couldn't tell what ingredients were used in most of the dishes.  Chen Daoning was nibbling on a hoof when he suddenly remembered something and called the waiter over and said, "Give these two plates to the beggar outside!" "Huh?" The waiter thought he heard wrongly.  These two dishes combined are worth six taels of silver, enough to feed an ordinary family of three for more than half a year, but they are actually being given to beggars!  "Huh?" Chen Daoning raised his eyes and stared at the waiter, his eyes as cold as ice.  "Okay, little one, bring it over here!" The waiter at the shop was so frightened by Chen Daoning that he quickly picked up the food and ran away. He thought that he was from a wealthy family, and his glare made ordinary people shiver all over.  As soon as the waiter left, the little beggar who was begging for food at the door of the restaurant hugged the dog and tried to escape, for fear of being beaten again.  It's just that he hasn't eaten for three days and is so hungry that he can't run anywhere, but he is overtaken by the waiter in a few steps.  "Why are you running away? Am I that scary? You bastard, you are lucky today, you met a kind-hearted young master!" The waiter poured two plates of food into the broken earthen jar where the little beggar was begging for food, and turned around to leave.  He said, "Go away and eat, don't ruin Fuguilou's business." The little beggar's eyes lit up when he saw the food. He lay on the ground without even using his hands and buried his head directly into the earthen pot to eat.  And the leper next to himThe dog was not polite either, and came over to eat with the beggar.  One person and one dog just lie on the ground and eat with relish. The picture is harmonious and strange.
