Chapter 73 Spectacular City
After listening to Dugu Tianzhuo's story, the three breathed a sigh of relief.
"No wonder you react so much when you see the people of Yuyin Mountain, not like you at all." Yun Chengtian said.
"Ha ha, yes." Dugu Tianzhuo couldn't help smiling bitterly.
"Since then, the Dugu family has moved to Huxiao City. The intention is that when there are any signs in the spirit forest, they can immediately respond to changes. After all, most of the masters in Huyue City are in Dugu's house." According to Dugu Tianzhuo, Yun Chengtian may not know, but Liu Hongwu and Yuan Jie know why the first family of other countries are in the capital, while the first family of Huyue is in Huxiao City.
"Let's go. This journey has delayed a lot of time. We have to hurry up." After Dugu Tianzhuo finished speaking, he galloped forward first, and the three quickly caught up with him.
Although everyone took a long detour and went through some twists and turns, they gradually moved away from the demon forest and went on the road. In the end, Dugu Tianzhuo saw that the agreed period could not come, so he taught Yun Chengtian the art of controlling horses with qi, and Yun Chengtian to control two horses alone, although the aura was seriously depleted. But he finally arrived at Huyue City before June 15.
When everyone arrived at Huyue City, it was already evening.
Except for Dugu Tianzhuo, the other three are the first time to come to Huyue City. Although they can't see clearly at night, the three are still shocked by the magnificence of Huyue City. Looking at the wall alone, the wall of Huyue City is twice as high or wide as that of Huxiao City. They are all built of bluestone bricks and stand guard on the front wall. There were about 50 soldiers patrolling, some holding torches, and three people patrolled on the wall in a small group. Everyone wore armor, with a serious and powerful expression.
There are three characters on the wall: Huyue City. A white-rimmed purple background, embroidered with a golden tiger-headed flag flying high above the wall.
"This is Huyue City. It's really much bigger than Tiger Xiaocheng." Liu Hongwu couldn't help sighing when he saw this elegant and solemn Huxiao City.
"Let's go to the advanced city. It's getting late. Let's talk about it tomorrow." Dugu Tianzhuo turned his horse to the two closed gates.
Everyone's hearts have long been unbearable. As the people of Huyue Kingdom, they all wanted to see what Huyue City, the capital of their country, looked like, so they followed Dugu Tianzhuo to the city gate.
"Sw." A bow and arrow shot in front of Dugu Tianzhuo's horse. The horse was frightened and panicked. The front leg was raised. Fortunately, Dugu Tianzhuo rode tightly on the horse and settled the horse down.
"Who is coming?" A man in the armor of the captain came forward to ask questions. In an instant, the city wall was brightly lit, and rows of crossbows were aimed at the four people.
"Dugu Tianzhuo." Dugu Tian replied loudly.
"Please show the evidence." The captain ignored Dugu Tianzhuo's answer and continued.
"Why is it so troublesome? Why does this captain look more majestic than when he was a general?" Liu Hongwu muttered in the back.
Dugu Tianzhuo smiled and raised his hand. One thing turned into a ball of light and flew to the wall. The captain reached out and took it and watched carefully.
It is a token made of purple jade, with a large Ling character on the front, surrounded by countless patterns. On the Ling character, there is a tiger leap city written by seal, and on the back, there is a lifelike tiger.
"Ah, it's a purple jade token. Open the gate quickly." As soon as the captain saw it, he immediately ordered everyone to open the gate quickly.
"Hair..." A scholar in a Taoist robe walked over slowly.
"Ah, it's the national teacher." The captain and the soldiers quickly saluted at first sight.
"No, bring me the purple jade token." The national division said to the captain.
"Yes, national teacher." The captain quickly presented the purple jade token in his hand with both hands.
The national teacher stretched out his hand, looked carefully, and said to the captain, "The situation is complicated these two days. For the safety of Huyue City, everything must be careful."
"Yes, yes, the national teacher is dedicated to Hu Yuecheng, and the subordinates admire it." The captain missed the opportunity to flatter him.
Dugu Tianzhuo saw it clearly below. Seeing the situation above, he couldn't help sneering: "It's that guy."
Liu Hongwu and Yuan Jie can't see the above situation clearly, but Yun Chengtian can see it clearly.
After listening to Dugu Tianzhuo's horse, Yun Chengtian stood side by side with Dugu Tianzhuo.
"Who is that guy?" Yun Chengtian asked Dugu Tianzhuo strangely.
"Wei Wuji, a military division of Huyue City, a monk in the Yuanying period." Dugu Tianzhuo said slightly disdainful.
"Isn't he from your lonely family?" Yun said strangely all day.
"No, a practitioner who didn't know where he came from gave advice to the city owner about the refining and construction of Huxiao City. Since then, he has been worshipped as a military division and participated in the government." Dugu Tianzhuo said lightly.
"That should be your colleague. It must be very powerful to become a military division of Huyue City." Liu Hongwu praised the military division.
"Well, but since he became a military division, he has been against the lonely family everywhere." The three people who said this sentence were stunned.
"Who are you? What's the purpose of stealing Lord Dugu's purple jade token and dressing up as him? Say it!" At this moment, a rather harsh questioning sound came from the city wall. It was Wei Wuji, the national master.
Dugu Tianzhuo sneered, raised his hand, and a flying sword full of thunder and lightning flew to Wei Wuji. It was Dugu Tianzhuo's flying sword.
At the same time, Dugu Tianzhuo said harshly, "The national teacher doesn't know me, Dugu Tianzhuo, doesn't he even know this Lei Ze sword?"
After Wei Wuji saw Lei Zejian, his face turned red and white. He gritted his teeth, gave the purple jade token to the captain behind him, and said coldly, "Open the door!" Then brush your sleeves and go away.
"Hum..." The two closed doors slowly opened, and Dugu Tianzhuo walked side by side. Yun Chengtian asked strangely, "What's wrong with the national teacher? How can you be so angry when you see your flying sword?
"Oh, hehe, he once challenged me in public, but he was defeated by me. Of course, he saw Lei Zejian with this expression." Dugu Tian said with a slight smile.
The captain had already led people to wait by the gate. The captain held the purple jade token in his hands and stood with the soldiers.
"Lord Dugu." Everyone knelt on one knee after seeing Dugu Tianzhuo.
"Please get up, don't be polite." Dugu Tianzhuo said, disared and picked up the captain and retrieved the purple jade token.
"Lord Dugu, not a subordinate... the military commander..." The captain was frightened.
"I know, it's not your fault." Dugu Tianzhuo said with a smile.
"Let's go." Dugu Tianzhuo did not get on the horse, but led the horse to the city. As soon as Yun Chengtian saw it, they were embarrassed to ride a horse, and they all got off the horse and walked.
"Congratulations to Lord Dugu." A voice came out from behind.
"It seems that you are very popular here." Yun Chengtian patted Dugu Tianzhuo on the shoulder and said.
"No, it just occupies the light of the predecessors of the Dugu family." Dugu Tianzhuo smiled slightly.
Through this matter, Yun Chengtian has now had a general understanding of Dugu Tianzhuo, and Liu Hongwu and Yuan Jie are the same.
"No, can I have a look at what you have?" Yun Chengtian asked Dugu Tianzhuo.
Huh? What the hell?" Dugu Tianzhuo didn't seem to understand.
"That's your token." Yun Chengtian said.
"Okay, okay." Dugu Tianzhuo said, took out the purple jade token from his arms and handed it to Yun Chengtian.
"What is this?" Yun Chengtian took over the purple jade token and looked at it carefully and found that nothing special was found except fine workmanship.
"The purple jade token, the token used in the Huxiao King's room, see the token like seeing the city owner." Liu Hongwu interrupted and explained.
"Oh, no wonder, here you are." Yun Chengtian saw that this token was so important that he was afraid of damaging it to Dugu Tianzhuo and quickly returned it to Dugu Tianzhuo.
"That's it! That is!" Liu Hongwu pointed to the looming tall and majestic building in the center of Huyue City and shouted excitedly.
"It is the inner city of Huyue Kingdom. It is also a daily gathering to discuss political affairs. It is also the place where the city owner lives. It is the central location of Huyue City." Dugu Tianzhuo explained.
"This Huyue City is really big, I don't know how many times bigger than Hu Xiao City," Liu Hongwu sighed.
"Huyue City is about four times that of Huxiao City." Dugu Tianzhuo said lightly that he had lived in Huyue City for many years, which was a normal time for him, but for Liu Hongwu, who had lived in Huxiao City for many years, this was a very shocking thing.
The roads in Huyue City are connected in all directions, and two straight avenues from east to west and north and south run through the whole Huyue City. There are countless small roads in Huyue City. Four people are walking towards Dugu Tianzhuo's mansion.
Every building in Huyue City is decorated with golden splendor. Dugu Tianzhuo has long been used to it. After the practice of cultivating his mind, Yun has not paid much attention to these golden and brilliant things. Yuan Jie is still the same as usual. Only Liu Hongwu, every time he sees something, he sounds like he sees something. Strange things.
As he walked, he walked farther and farther away from the center of the city. The scene he saw was not so strange, and Liu Hongwu gradually calmed down.
"This is where I live. Come in." Dugu Tianzhuo pointed to a hut in front of him and said.
"Is this where you live?" Liu Hongwu said with wide eyes.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Dugu Tianzhuo seemed to be surprised by Liu Hongwu's reaction.
"In my imagination, even if the place where you live is not as good as the Dugu Mansion in Huxiao City, it is not much worse. Where do we live in one house?" Liu Hongwu spread his hands and asked Dugu Tianzhuo.
"inn" Dugu Tianzhuo pointed to an inn with a big red lantern opposite.
"What?" As soon as he said this, the three of them widened their eyes and looked at the inn.
The plaque on the inn says four big words: "Yuelai Inn."
