Chapter 63 Booby

After traveling for nineteen days on the territory of the Dayan Dynasty, Wuqi and his party finally arrived at Jicheng.

Jidu, the capital of the Dayan Dynasty, has undergone fifteen expansions over the past two thousand years. Every time it is expanded, the original city wall is heightened and strengthened, and another city wall is built several miles outside the city wall to encircle a larger area of ​​​​the city. Therefore, from the outermost city wall to the innermost palace wall, Jidu has a total of seventeen high walls.

Thirty years ago, Jidu just had a recent expansion. The latest heavy city wall is 180 miles long and wide. In the thin morning mist, the tall city wall is like a crouching dragon, lying quietly in this boundless expanse. on the plain.

Each heavy city wall is fifteen feet high and ten feet thick, and the whole body is built with extremely solid black dazzling rock. Between the rock blocks, a metal solution was poured to make the city wall more indestructible. On these black dazzling rocks, which are twice as strong as diamond, there are also a large number of rune arrays with the property of pentad, and the aura of the earth is always extracted to reinforce the city wall. .

On the city wall, every two miles, there is an arrow tower with a height of 100 zhang. The arrow tower is ten feet long and wide, with a total of nine floors from top to bottom. A large number of ink machines and bed crossbows are arranged, and the lethality is extremely terrifying. Inside the city wall, there are countless caves and corridors for Tibetan soldiers. The naked eye can see peep holes, gun holes, and arrow holes. The dark holes seem to make people cold from the bottom of their hearts.

As the brigade gradually approached the city wall of Jicheng, Wu Qi only felt that his heart was beating faster and faster, and blood was flowing in his blood vessels, making him a little dizzy. He instinctively felt that something would happen in this huge capital, something that would have a major impact on him or on this Great Yan Dynasty.

Taking a deep breath, Wu Qi pointed his finger on a wooden talisman hanging from his waist. A few simple runes on the wooden talisman flickered slightly, and a faint power spread from the wooden talisman, covering the fluctuation of Wuqi's true energy. Now it seems that Wu Qi is an ordinary martial artist with about thirty or forty years of strength.

Lu Chengfeng, Luo Kedi, and Ma Liang also injected an infuriating qi into the wooden talisman hanging around their waists, covering their inner strength. The four breath-holding talismans were made by Lu Chengfeng himself, and they were also the last practical talismans of the Lu Chengfeng Association, apart from the Back Earth Spirit Armor Formation and the Taibai Gold Sword Formation.

The big butler of the "Tao family" of the state of Lu came forward to clear the way, and the brigade entered Jidu smoothly.

Jicheng is the core hinterland of the Dayan Dynasty. Hundreds of thousands of troops are stationed all year round. There are countless guards by the major families and families in the city. Wuqi and the others were just a mere 4,000 guards. To the huge Jidu, it was like a drop of water spilled into the big lake.

Along the 30-zhang-wide main road, we passed thirteen layers of city walls along the way. Afterwards, they could no longer move forward. Going further inside, the people living in the core city are all the princes and nobles of the Dayan Dynasty. They come from the subordinate states of the Dayan Dynasty, and the direct descendants of an ordinary wealthy businessman are not eligible to enter the core city.

After some hectic work, Liyang Lu bought a large mansion in the city in advance, which is enough to accommodate more than 5,000 people. Greeted by the chief steward of the Liyang Lu family stationed in Jidu, the brigade entered the house, and then Wu Qi immediately explained to Zhang Hu, Hu Wei and others to arrange guards on duty.

After Tie Yuewu hurriedly bathed and changed clothes, she immediately dispatched Lu Qiuluo, the chief steward of the Lu family in Jicheng, to lead the way, carrying three cartons of gold and jade jewelry to meet the current ruler of the Great Yan Dynasty, the emperor, Yan Xing. Gong Yuxuan.

Duke Yuxuan of Yanxing, the third hundred and ninety-second grandson of Yanhuang Yandan, is good at power and intrigue, loves money and sex, attaches great importance to profit and neglects righteousness, holds the power of the imperial family of the Great Yan Dynasty, and is responsible for supervising and managing the royal family of the prince and grandson of the Great Yan Dynasty. Aristocrats' birth, old age, sickness and death, punishment and reward, and title change.

In order for Lu Chengfeng to successfully inherit Yan Buzhi's title, fief, and official position, Yu Xuan must be bribed.

Wu Qi and the others entered the city early in the morning, and it took a lot of time to enter the city. By the time everyone settled down, it was already after noon. Tie Yuewu took a shower and changed clothes, counted three carts of gold and jade jewelry and went to visit Yu Xuan, it was almost evening. The matter is urgent, and a little delay will add more variables, so Tie Yuewu clearly knows that it is really unethical to visit a Duke of the Dayan Dynasty so abruptly, but he can't care about it so much.

There was no news of her leaving. From the approaching evening until the moon was hanging in the sky, Tie Yuewu was not seen coming back, nor was she seen sending the guards beside her to come back to inform her. Gradually, not only Lu Chengfeng, but also Wu Qi felt a little anxious.

Lu Chengfeng sat upright in the lobby, his hands were hidden under the bill, his fingers were shaking violently.

Wu Qi, on the other hand, walked slowly in the yard with his hands behind his back, like a swimming fish swimming in the water. He sometimes looked up at the sky, and sometimes looked back at Lu Chengfeng, his brows furrowed tightly.

After waiting for another half an hour, Wu Qi also felt that something was wrong, he stomped his feet heavily, and said solemnly: "Apart from Lu Qiuluo, who else knows where the Guozong Mansion is? Ask someone to come over and bring them with you. I'll go find my way."

Lu Chengfeng jumped up all of a sudden, he shook his head again and again and said, "I can't do it, I can't do it. It can't compare to Xiaomeng City. There are countless masters in Jicheng, and there are more than 100,000 soldiers who patrol the night. It is said that there are real people in the inner city. Cultivators are on patrol at night, you can't go out."

Wuqi stomped his feet again, and he shouted in a low voice, "Then where did they go? No matter how things turn out, you have to reply with a letter, right?"

The two were discussing here when Zhang Hu suddenly walked in in a hurry, he bowed to Lu Chengfeng, and hurriedly said: "Young Master, Brother Wuqi, several servants of the Imperial Household came with the seal of Madam. , said that the son was asked to secretly go to the Guozong Mansion to discuss."

Lu Chengfeng was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled Wu Qi and went out.

Wu Qi hurriedly turned around to say hello, Luo Kedi and Ma Liang glanced at each other and hurriedly followed.

Outside the main hall of the first courtyard of the mansion, several men wearing black cloaks with their faces and doors covered are standing quietly under the eaves. Hearing the footsteps of Wu Qi and the others, several men hurriedly turned around and handed over a thumb-sized, red jade seal. "But Young Master Chengfeng is in front of you? On the orders of my lord, I ask you to go to the mansion to do business secretly."

Along with the seal, there was also a token cast with gold, silver, copper, iron, and tin hardware. The palm-sized token is full of wind and cloud patterns. Amidst the wind and clouds, a blue bird is spreading its wings and flying high. On the back of the token, in a round of tomorrow, a small seal is engraved with the word 'Ji'.

Lu Chengfeng took the seal and looked at it, it was indeed Tie Yuewu's personal seal. As for Wu Qi, he took the token. The token didn't look like much, but it was very heavy. He flipped the token for a round. On the edge of the token, there was indeed Yu Xuan, the emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty. font.

After weighing the token, Wu Qi asked, "Why didn't the guard beside Madam come with you?"

The man just said lightly: "Do you think that Jidu can walk freely at night? One more person means more trouble."

With a sneer, the man explained with a bit of arrogance: "Even if you enter the inner city later, you have to hide in the car, don't make a sound, don't move, otherwise you will cause trouble, don't blame us for ignoring it. "Young Master Chengfeng, don't forget that your current identity is still the eldest son of the Lu clan in Liyang!"

Lu Chengfeng snorted lightly, and he looked at Wu Qi.

Wuqi narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Our son will bring some guards."

The man in black glanced at Wuqi and the others, and said indifferently: "Except for Young Master Chengfeng, it's best not to have more than four guards. The car we brought is too small to hold too many people."

Wu Qi pointed at himself and Luo Kedi and Ma Liang, he said indifferently: "Just the three of us to serve our son in the past."

Several men in black nodded in unison. They didn't say anything more. They pulled the cloak that covered their faces, turned around and walked out.

In the shadows outside the mansion gate, a small two-wheeled black-painted carriage was waiting there. Wuqi waited for the four of them to get into the carriage, and a few men in black surrounded the carriage and walked towards the inner city in a chaotic manner.

Along the way, there are soldiers patrolling the night from time to time, but after they saw a light blue lantern inserted into the carriage, all the soldiers pretended not to have seen the carriage and let them pass by.

Going straight all the way, a few men in black really have great power. At this time, all the city gates in Jidu have been locked. Without disturbing anyone, they called to open two small side doors on the city walls and marched all the way into the inner city.

The streets in the inner city of Jidu follow the specifications of more than 2,000 years ago, and the width of the streets is only about 30 feet wide. On both sides of the street lived the princes and nobles of the Dayan Dynasty.

A few men in black drove the carriage to and fro all the way, and went all the way into a remote alley.

The carriage stopped abruptly, and Wu Qi, who had been watching the surrounding from the gap in the car window, was stunned for a moment. The lights were dark and there were no doors here. How could it be the Guozong Mansion? He hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Several, where is this place?"

Several men in black all laughed together, suddenly turned around and jumped into the darkness.

Wu Qi was surprised, he let out a clear whistle and put his foot on the carriage door. The dull smashed into countless pieces and flew out, Wuqi jumped out of the carriage.

In the darkness, dozens of strong winds attacked silently, and instantly came to Wuqi's side, covering his entire body.

More strong winds hit the carriage, and the chilling cold stimulated the three people in the carriage to sweat coldly.

******

For the sake of Wuqi and the others being chopped up as soon as they entered the city, comrades, give me some encouragement to count the tickets!

Tickets, tickets, all kinds of weird tickets!
