Chapter 487 Trapped in the City

Chapter 487 Trapped in the City

The sound of horseshoes suddenly sounded, attracting everyone's attention.

Looking towards the rear, you can see a group of cavalry galloping quickly. Even if they are close to the city wall, those cavalry have no intention of slowing down.

The team of cavalry came to the city gate, showed their tokens and said: "The vanguard under the name of General Shi, the city lord has an order, no one is allowed to leave the city, and no one is allowed to enter the city, immediately close the city gate, and then wait for the order open."

The vanguard seemed to have a lot of background, and the guards guarding the city gate didn't dare to neglect, so they immediately agreed.

Qiao Ye's chest was pushed, and she was pushed back abruptly, and then the soldiers yelled to close the city gate.

Qiao Ye couldn't help being dumbfounded, what the hell?

Jin Shengyi and Qin Jianchuan were also dumbfounded. Their customs clearance documents had been checked, and they were already standing at the gate of the city. Return it to Qiao Ye, Qiao Ye has not had time to go out.

Jin Shengyi winked at Qiao Ye, meaning whether to do it or not.

Qiao Ye hesitated and shook his head.

I don't know what's going on right now, if it's not for me, it's not for me to expose myself.

Qiao Ye held the customs clearance document and said to the soldiers guarding the city: "My lord, my customs clearance document has been checked, and there is no problem. Why don't you let me go out before the door is closed?"

"Come on, Rory!" The soldiers guarding the city cast an impatient look at Qiao Ye and said, "Didn't you hear what the vanguard said? Anyone can't go out of the city to follow the city. If you want to go out so much, there's something wrong with your background." ?”

Qiao Ye smiled dryly, "No, definitely not."

The soldier guarding the city said: "Then why wait a little longer? Go back!"

It was not only Qiao Ye who complained, but also the people in the queue who complained a lot. They shouted one after another. After waiting in line for a long time, they suddenly said that they couldn't leave the city. What's the matter?

The same is true for those who enter the city. Everyone in the Demon Realm is a demonized person, but being able to become a demonized person does not necessarily mean that they can go very far on the way of cultivation. Most of them are still just ordinary people, and many of them are There are people who carry goods from a long distance to sell, even those who have traveled for two or three days, but they are not allowed to enter at the gate, and some of them are melons and fruits.

"What are you arguing about!" The cavalry headed by the cavalry team pulled out a whip vigorously and said, "This is the order of the city lord. If anyone is unwilling, believe it or not, I will arrest you and send you to the prison in the magic hall?"

The surrounding complaints suddenly became much quieter, after all, people don't fight with officials.

An obese middle-aged man stepped forward, secretly stuffed some money and said, "Officer, I don't know what it is for? Of course there is nothing wrong with closing the city gate, but we must have a solid foundation in our hearts."

The cavalryman snorted coldly and knocked the money away: "Is there anything you should ask? Honestly wait and go, don't try to make friends with me here."

After the cavalryman finished speaking, he whipped his horsewhip and led the people away quickly.

When the team of cavalry left, the people blocking the city gate began to curse and complain to each other.

"Don't talk about it, just wait honestly." The middle-aged man who came forward to inquire before picked up the money and said: "This time there may be something really big."

Qiao Ye asked curiously, "How do you know?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Qiao Ye and said, "Young man, what kind of virtues are those bastards? Who doesn't know? If they have money to get good things, they can still push the money out?"

While talking, the middle-aged man blew away the dust on the money.

"So, I'm not in the mood to be greedy for this money..." The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Can it be a trivial matter?"

There is really no way to refute this reason.

Qiao Ye couldn't help but look at the middle-aged man. He looked like a businessman traveling all over the world. His big belly looked rich, but his skin was a bit dark. He didn't look like someone who stayed in one place for a long time. He was an old man. .

I can't get out of the city gate, and I don't know what happened. The only thing I can know is that it may not be a trivial matter.

Qiao Ye thought about it secretly. Although Lin Jiao has a way, but he can't stand it. In order to catch himself, he can directly block the city, right?

While thinking about it, Qiao Ye left the city gate, took a piece of spiritual paper and wrote on it: Go first, don't worry about me, I will find a way to get out of the city by myself.

Since Qin Jianchuan and Jin Shengyi have left the city, there is no need to join them. As for Qiao Ye himself, he is not very worried. It is just that he cannot leave the city through regular channels, but it is not impossible for Qiao Ye to leave the city. Things, a city wall, and some low-level defenders can leave even if they don't force themselves.

Instead, you can first figure out whether this matter is directed at yourself.

Qiao Ye walked into a restaurant while thinking about it.

"A jug of wine, two small dishes."

"Okay, wait a moment, guest officer!"

Xiao Er agreed, and then ran to the back kitchen.

Qiao Ye half leaned on the chair, restaurant and tea shop, the two best places to get news, the third place is brothel.

Closing down the city is not a trivial matter. I am afraid that this matter will spread throughout the streets and alleys in a short time. At that time, some news will always leak out.

Qiao Ye is not in a hurry, just wait slowly.

Sure enough, Qiao Ye sat for a while, and people around him began to discuss the closure of the city.

A table of new guests sat there, and one of them whispered, "What's going on here? Why is the door closed?"

"I heard it's arresting people!"

"Our Huacheng has always been relatively peaceful. There are no bandits or bandits around. It is very peaceful. How could we close the city just to catch someone."

"I'm not sure about this, but it seems to be really arresting people."

"It's arresting two women!" At this time, a man in the next door suddenly turned his head and said: "I have a relative who works in the magic hall. Here comes the woman."

After saying this, the people around were also interested, and immediately said: "Tell me, tell me, what's going on?"

The man spread his hands and said, "That's all I know, and I don't know the origin of those two women, but they don't seem to be wanted criminals, but their origins are very unusual. The government has also dispatched manpower, and even the vanguard battalion stationed outside the city has been transferred into the city, and some masters raised by the city lord have also shown up."

That person didn't know much, but it also opened up the chatterbox for everyone, and many people started talking about it. Some people said that the young wife of the city lord ran away, and some said that the city lord had taken a fancy to which girl and wanted to keep it for himself. As a result, people were not happy and ran away.

Anyway, after a short while, the topic ran out of bounds.
