Chapter 137 Eight Cities Contract

Facing the hazy sky in the afternoon, Shuiyue accompanied the city owner to look around the overall city defense of the mountain city. In fact, it is better to say that the city owner accompanied Shuiyue to see. As the city owner introduced, Shuiyue issued suggestions. In the eyes of outsiders, Shuiyue is like the city owner, and the city owner is just a follower of Shuiyue.

Several people first came to the west city of the mountain city. This is a residential area. The wall is not very high, but the outside of the wall is a deep valley. The foundation of the west city wall is located on the edge of the valley. Standing on the wall and looking down, the valley is deep and the stone wall is straight. The magic soldiers have no foothold in the west city. There is no way to launch an attack from the West City. At that time, a patrol will be arranged here to keep the West City sound. Therefore, the tour of the West City will end.

The second place is the north wall of the mountain city. In fact, there is no wall at all. The north of the mountain city is a large barren gravel land. There are green grasslands among the gravel, and wild flowers are sparsely growing in the grassland, as if it is a secluded place in the mountains and fields. Shuiyue is also the first time to come here. No one can imagine In the bustling mountain city, there is such a desolate and sighing no man's land. Then Shuiyue saw the towering mountain and understood the origin of these gravel. The north city without walls and the city walls are these mountains. Generally speaking, the residence will not be built under the mountain, and the foot of the mountain will often suffer all kinds of unpredictable harm. , the mountains threaten nearby houses all the time. The city owner explained that these mountains sometimes cause the mountain to collapse in thunderstorms, and many gravel will fall down the mountain. The urban area has moved back about a whole year, which has led to the formation of this open space, and the moon can see that in this area In the open space, there are also warning signs. It seems that the signs are very old and have not been replaced for a long time. It seems that few people come here.

The sign said:

At all times, pay attention to the top of your head----

Shuiyue couldn't help looking up. There seemed to be a lot of danger hidden in those mountains, so she shrank her neck and asked, "City lord, how high can this mountain be?"

"No one has measured this mountain. It is very dangerous here, so there are few people at ordinary times. Even the patrols dare not walk down the mountain. Did they see the warnings over there? This mountain often drops stones, killing many people in recent years!"

"Oh!" I'm also worried that at this time, a few pieces of gravel will suddenly fall off and hit my head. Even if I don't die, I will be semi-paralyzed!

The so-called people can't think too much. When Shuiyue was worried, she heard a rumble from the top of the mountain!

"No, a stone has slipped down the mountain!" The city owner reminded that the big guys ran back together without running a few steps. The gravel fell to the ground, collided with the ground, made a more violent sound, and kept rolling forward. Shuiyue felt that the whole ground trembled with the sound!

yu----

Everyone breathed a long breath, and the gravel stopped less than ten meters away from themselves, and the dents left by the impact were still on the ground!

"Let's go and stay longer, I'm afraid our lives are in danger!" Meteor is timid.

Looking at the sky, there were also signs of rain. Shuiyue nodded, and in Dongcheng, Shuiyue did not need to be accompanied by the city owner. My camp was in Dongcheng, and I could find a time during the day to see the whole picture of Dongcheng.

Several people from Shuiyue went directly to the city's mansion. Shuiyue was curious about what kind of contract could actually unite eight cities. So far, this is what Shuiyue has heard of and is the most symbolic of the unity of the human race!

As soon as he entered the city, Tiangong started a fire, and the bean-sized raindrops fell down and hit everyone!

When I returned to the city owner's mansion, everyone was drenched.

Seeing that there was no one in the hall, the meteor simply took off his coat, twisted it in his hand, and said, "It's raining a lot!"

Under the eaves, the rain has already flowed down the tiles on the roof, like a curtain. Shuiyue felt very cold in the hall. Of course, he also wanted to take off his armor, but he was a little scrupulous. He was no longer the stunned young, unable to learn from the appearance of a meteor, regardless of etiquette. At this time, the city The maid of the master's mansion came in and brought a brazier for everyone to warm up. Seeing the meteor bare arms, the maid blushed a little. The meteor hurriedly put on her clothes and said in surprise, "Is this the woman from there?"

"You pig!" Shuiyue slapped the back of the meteor and snapped, causing popular dissatisfaction.

"Is Shuiyue looking for death?"

This sentence seems to have been said to himself when he was in Licheng, but now it sounds different. When the meteor speaks, he also feels inappropriate. He immediately shuts up and greets him with a smile. Shuiyue can't say what this feeling is. The meteor is getting farther and farther away from him!

"Meteor, don't forget to come to my place at night. I have something to show you!"

"Oh!" The meteor's embarrassing expression was left from just now!

Shuiyue roasted the fire for a while and felt much warmer. At this time, the city owner came out of the hall and changed into a set of dry clothes with a roll of paper in his hand.

"Is this the contract of the eight countries?" Shuiyue wiped her hands on her clothes, but the moon was getting weter and wet.

"Here you are!" Syl found a dry towel from somewhere and threw it over. After Shuiyue wiped her hands, she took the roll of paper from the city owner's hand.

Opening the roll of paper, Shuiyue found that there was only one page of paper, but it was densely full of words. Shuiyue seemed to take a long time, and only a small part of it was the focus.

It is written on the book:

From now on, a total of eight cities, including Twilight City, Mountain City, Zecheng, Bitter City, Shucheng, Huacheng, Mengcheng and Sin City, have formed a strategic alliance. In the eight-city contract, no matter whichever city is illegally invaded by the outside world, the other seven cities will provide assistance unconditionally, if two or more of them are exposed to the outside world at the same time. In case of invasion, the eight cities form a united army to fight against the enemy, and the expenses are shared by the eight cities. If they are found to be unsponsful, they will be deemed to have given up the contract, their names will be drawn from the contract, and 100,000 taels will be repaid to each city in the contract!

In the contract, if the two cities instigate each other, breed conflicts, break out unrest and many other things that are not conducive to the existence of the contract, the two cities will draw out of the contract at the same time and pay 100,000 taels to the countries in the contract one by one!

The contract will take effect from now!

At the end of the contract, it was the autograph of each city owner, among which the mountain city signed the name of Xifeng.

"When was this contract signed?" Shuiyue asked.

"Ten years ago, by the way, if you don't ask this, I almost forgot that the owner of Twilight City has changed, and the old man died the day after signing the contract!"

"That contract still has a effect on Twilight City?"

The city owner laughed and said, "I knew you would ask this. Don't worry, when signing this contract, the nobles of all cities participated, and the reason for signing this contract was an unforgettable war. Unless the cities forget the pain at that time, they must abide by the agreement!"

War, what caused eight cities to sign such a united contract?
