Chapter 4 Qianjing
Early the next morning, the east gradually became clear, and Li Xiaohe followed Ning Kun along the river to the east of Longmen Valley.
In a short time, you will see a large number of buildings in the distance. There are palaces and tall buildings. This must be the place where people in the world are qualified to enter Longmen Valley to participate in the "Tongtian Conference".
I didn't see many of them doing morning exercises until I stayed close. The youngest was only seven or eight years old, and the eldest was in his early ten years old, but there were many people, all over the small squares where they could practice martial arts.
Seeing Li Xiaohe and Ning Kun coming out of the valley, both the children and the officers who trained them looked at them with envy in their eyes.
"Will these people be selected into the major immortals?" Li Xiaohe looked at the children and asked Ning Kun beside him.
Ning Kun smiled and said, "Look, there are at least more than 10,000 children, but there should be only eight floors that can be selected into the Fairy Gate. Although the rest cannot be selected into the Fairy Gate, they will also join the mortal army in the future and do something in the mortal world."
Li Xiaohe is also clear in his heart when he hears it. Although these children are also among the most immortals in the world, not everyone can be favored by the people in the immortals.
"This selection of disciples is also in order. In the end, it will rank the ranking of young disciples of various schools in the 'Tongtian Conference' to rank the major immortals. Naturally, the top-ranked immortals can first select the excellent people among these children to get under the family, while the lowest-ranked immortals can only select the remaining children. It's childish." Ning Kun continued.
Li Xiaohe knew that the competition of Tongtian Conference was fighting for better talented people. It seems that there are also interest disputes between the major decents in this world of cultivation. After all, they have not yet achieved immortality, and they are not all people who are indifferent.
After passing through the large area where mortals lived, I saw that not far away was the exit of Longmen Valley, and there was a faint wave from the mouth of the valley into the valley.
As soon as I came out of the valley, I suddenly became cheerful. This was already the end of the Qianjiang River. The waves of the muddy river rolled into the endless East China Sea, and then disappeared.
I often heard that "fish enter the sea", but today Li Xiaohe knew what the sea is. Under the endless blue sky, the huge stones on the shore were roaring like thunder. Occasionally, waves of sea winds blew and saw hundreds of waves in the distance. All kinds of seabirds also rushed into the clouds in the distance. The sun that just rose from the end of the sea is like egg yolk.
Ning Kun also looked at the sea and said, "I don't know where the end is. Among them, there are many ancient fierce beasts lurking, and even the giant who has lived for tens of millions of years may not be. There are also some hermit masters living on those islands in the far sea. In some places very close to the coast, the sea is also nearly a hundred feet deep, but the deep sea in the distance can't even dive to the bottom. It is said that the water pressure of the deep sea is like a huge mountain pressing on the body.
When Li Xiaohe heard Ning Kun's words, he suddenly sighed in his heart that "the manpower is finally exhausted". It seems that the practitioners are not omnipotent in this world, and he doesn't know whether the real immortals on that day are really omnipotent.
The two looked at the East Sea in front of them on the cliff at the mouth of Longmen Valley and did not go down the mountain until they stood for a long time.
The imperial city "Qianjing" is located north of Longmen Valley. All the way through the hills of Longmen Valley, you can see that there is already a plain in front of it. In the distance, there is a city more majestic than Kangcheng standing on the plain. From afar, you can see the banners in the city fluttering in the wind, and there are many towers in the city. The wall is still higher.
When I came to the city of "Qianjing" and looked up, the wall was more than ten feet high. It was built of dark-black boulders that I don't know how strong it was. The gate was also extremely wide, and there were many people entering and leaving. There were two golden letters "Qianjing" engraved on the gate.
A column of soldiers stood on both sides of the road at the gate. The guns and spears were dazzling, and a team of elite soldiers were lined up on the wall. Sure enough, it was the imperial city of a country, but the defense was extremely tight.
As soon as you enter the city, there are bursts of noise coming, and most of the people coming and going on the streets are also brocade and jade robes, showing the prosperity of the imperial city.
Li Xiaohe wandered around the city with Ning Kun. The mortal scene between them opened their eyes and linger. It was not until the sun faded that he entered a first-class inn. He was ready to book a guest room to eat something first, and then come out to browse the night view of the imperial city in the evening.
The night fell, and the whole city of Qianjing was naturally brightly lit, and the two walked on a path by a lake. The lake is full of colorful lotus lanterns. There are many people watching the lanterns here, but Li Xiaohe's eyes are attracted by the two figures on the boat in the lake.
Ning Kun found that Li Xiaohe suddenly slowed down his pace with a cold face. He looked along his eyes and happened to see Li Er and Chang Fan on a boat in the lake. The two were extremely close and smiling.
But just as Ning Kun hesitated how to comfort Li Xiaohe, suddenly there was a shocking explosion not far away, followed by a large number of houses rumbling down.
Li Xiaohe also turned his head and looked at the shock. At this time, he saw that a general's mansion he had just passed by collapsed and was razed to the ground, and soon a large number of soldiers gathered there.
A huge general's mansion turned into a piece of ruins and dust in the sky at this moment, and the rubble and bricks exploded around. At this time, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the dust and went straight to the direction of the city gate.
"People in the Devil's Gate!" As soon as Ning Kun saw the dark shadow coming out, he exclaimed and chased after him.
When Li Xiaohe saw that Ning Kun chased him, he also followed him up, and Chang Fan and Lier on the same lake saw this scene. Seeing that they chased after him, he also followed him.
The dark shadow was extremely fast and ran on the tall buildings in the city. Just as he was about to jump up the wall, his body flew in the air. Suddenly, a blue figure attacked him, and he saw the blue sword light flashed. In this dark night, it was extremely dazzling, like a strong moon sprinkled on this world.
The sword light flashed away, and then the blue figure fell on the roof of a building, and the dark shadow was still rushing forward, but it had been cut into two sections by the sword light, and then banged on the wall with two sounds, splashing a large amount of blood light.
Li Xiaohe then stopped beside Ning Kun and saw the blue figure on the roof of the building, with long hair and cold eyebrows. It turned out to be Lin Mengyao.
"Huh, why is this iceberg also here?" Ning Kun looked at the blood stains on the wall and then laughed.
Li Xiaohe saw Lin Mengyao, and then turned his head to look at the wall. At this time, the dark shadow spread on the ground like mud, and there were large blood stains on the wall. Obviously, the unknown shadow man was dead at this moment.
Li Xiaohe saw a living person killed in front of him for the first time. Although it was a human life in the demon gate, Lin Mengyao and Ning Kun obviously didn't care about it.
For a while, he couldn't calm down for a long time. He had already known that the struggle in the cultivation world was tragic. Until today, he knew that the struggle in the cultivation world was like this, and life and death were only on the front line.
At this time, Li'er and Chang Fan also came to Li Xiaohe and Ning Kun, but Lin Mengyao still stood far away on the high building shrouded in moon.
Ning Kun saw Li'er and Chang Fan coming and said, "Brother Chang."
Chang Fan nodded slightly and then looked at the blood stains on the wall and said, "It seems that he is just a demon disciple with low cultivation."
Li Xiaohe ignored Changfan and Lier at this time and kept looking at the wall.
Suddenly, a figure flies past the darkness, and the man turned his head to look at him when he left.
When the figure turned his head, Li Xiaohe happened to see the face hidden under the black robe. Suddenly, his heart turned upside down and his face changed rapidly.
"Ziqiao•••••" He was shocked and went to the place where the figure disappeared.
Li Xiaohe suddenly rushed out like this, and the three people next to him were also shocked and hurried to chase after him.
"Brother Chang, it's okay if I go. Please go back." After saying that, Ning Kun hurried to Li Xiaohe and left the direction.
Although Chang Fan heard Ning Kun's words, he had to get up and catch up with him. Suddenly, he felt that Lier behind him had pulled the corner of his clothes, so he stopped and looked at Lier behind him doubtfully.
Li'er looked at the place where Lin Mengyao was standing just now. At this time, there was no one, but her face was a little sad and said slowly, "With my sister and Ning Kun, I think it will be fine. You also know about us, Xiaohe•••••"
Chang Fan listened to Li'er's words, frowned and sighed, turned around and gently held Li'er in his arms.
