Chapter 1503: Visitors
The prison building has seven floors, each floor is different.
Its architectural style is certainly beautiful, and it is higher than all the buildings in this city, which is enough to show its uniqueness and majesty.
It has also stood in the center of this city for many years.
But it still feels distant and nervous.
Standing here, it doesn't feel like being here.
People upstairs look at people, and people downstairs experience life.
This meeting in the city of no redemption is something that neither Jiang Wang nor Xiao Shu had ever thought of.
Unexpected meeting but meeting.
When Xiao Shu noticed the gaze and looked up, he saw a pair of calm eyes, an increasingly clear outline, and tenacity after being worn by wind and frost.
He is by no means a flawless handsome man.
But he has his own unique demeanor.
He sat there.
You can feel his youth, his vigorous vitality, and his courage burning like a raging fire.
You can also feel his determination and his calmness.
He has experienced too much and overcome too much, so he can be calm.
He carried the burden and never looked back, so he was so sure. You know he will keep going forward. Except for life and death, no one and nothing can stop him.
Xiao Shu will certainly not forget this person!
Although they met once in Shanhai Realm.
But whoever participated in the Yellow River Conference would forget such a person and such a face?
When the geniuses gathered, he won the championship.
When the stars were shining, he was the most dazzling.
Now.
The loser who stopped in the top 16 of the Yellow River Conference, alone, on the busy street, looked up at the hero who won the championship in the Yellow River Conference.
Now.
The mediocre who did not know his own strength and returned in vain in Shanhai Realm looked up at the final winner of Shanhai Realm.
At this moment, he looked up, and the sky was dazzling. The man sat in the highest place in the entire Bushu City. Even in such a lawless place and such an extremely chaotic city, he was the guest of the highest authority in the local area.
And he was a passerby on the street.
People are so different.
The experience of competing on the same stage was like a hard slap in life.
Xiao Shu subconsciously covered his face and subconsciously quickened his pace to leave.
But then he stopped again.
He put his hand down again.
Then he smiled.
He had nothing to lose.
Including his dissatisfaction.
Including his unwillingness.
Including his sense of shame.
…
Jiang Wang certainly remembered Xiao Shu, but the few quick meetings at the Yellow River Conference did not leave a deep impression on him.
The geniuses of various countries gathered together, and there were too many dazzling figures, and the brilliance of some people was overshadowed by others.
What really impressed him was what Chu Yuzhi said when he met my building.
He also knew the various injustices suffered by this first genius at the government level in Dan Country in Dan Country.
Speaking of it, Xiao Shu's performance in the Yellow River Conference was indeed not impressive, but for Dan Country, being able to enter the main competition of the Yellow River Conference was already a victory. Not to mention that the person who eliminated Xiao Shu was Qin Zhizhen, who was the only Tianfu cultivator in the Yellow River Conference and was qualified to compete for the top spot in the Yellow River.
Who of the Tianjiao who competed on the Guanhetai at the time could guarantee that they could definitely pass Qin Zhizhen's level?
Chu Yuzhi said that because of another defeat in the Mountain and Sea Realm, the large amount of resources borrowed was difficult to repay, and the soul was weakened, Xiao Shu had been completely stripped of the qualification for the Yuanshi Dan Conference...
That kind of experience is indeed sigh-worthy.
But whether it is Chu Yuzhi himself or Jiang Wang who heard the news, they don't think Xiao Shu will be unable to recover from this.
In any case, Xiao Shu is the strongest genius at the level of the Dan Realm.
As long as he passes this level, the future is still promising.
But why did he come to Bushu City at this time?
Jiang Wang was a little curious, but then he thought that this curiosity might be an offense to the other party, so he just nodded kindly and retracted his gaze.
…
…
This day, the city of Bushu seemed to be more lively than ever before.
This liveliness was not because there were many people coming. In the past, there were people who brought their families and thousands of people from a whole village to escape to Bushu City.
This liveliness was because there were many unique people among the people entering the city.
For example, there was a person who was reluctant to pay a penny for his life, a person who wanted to take off all his shoes and socks and hand them in, and now this person walked in without saying a word...
"Hey, hey, hey, why are you in such a hurry?" The gatekeeper shouted, "Do you know the rules?"
The newcomer was well-dressed and had a resolute face.
As he stepped, he was like a tiger walking on the mountain, with an overwhelming momentum.
"Get out of the way." He just said.
His voice was not loud, but it had a kind of majesty that had been in high places for a long time.
Although the entire city of Bushu was backing him up, the gatekeeper seemed to have no temper. He shrugged and really got out of the way.
Under the watchful eyes of those near the city gate, the newcomer strode in.
He was probably dissatisfied with the order of this place, and he even disliked it very much. He did not hide his dislike at all, and his brows were obviously furrowed.
But he walked into the city after all.
In this world, no one can do everything as they please. No matter who you are, there are always times in your life when you have to meet people you don't like, do things you don't like, and go to places you don't like.
Some people even do this for their entire lives.
He understands this truth and teaches himself to endure it.
Buddhists regard this as one of the eight sufferings, which is "meeting with hatred and resentment." That is to say, people or things that you hate and resent are gathered together by fate.
This is the suffering that is difficult to get rid of in life.
He doesn't think he should be an exception.
At this time, he stood on the street behind the city gate, standing in the eyes filled with all kinds of malice. Looking around, there are all kinds of messy irregular buildings and all kinds of messy and indecent people.
Bushu City is not a particularly large city, but the desperate people from the three countries of Zhuang, Yong, Luo and even the entire Western Territory have all poured in here, all kinds of people, all kinds of people.
It is not easy to find someone here.
He soared into the air.
The power of God suddenly burst out, and his powerful spiritual consciousness left his body, like mercury pouring out of the ground, spreading rapidly in all directions with a reckless attitude!
Of course, he could not cover the entire city of Bushu with his spiritual consciousness.
But with this kind of spiritual consciousness spreading on the ground, it would not take more than thirty breaths to search the entire city of Bushu.
His posture in the air, his undisguised powerful aura, and the surging spiritual consciousness that could make people feel oppressed... all showed his identity as a monk in the realm of God.
A strong man who looks so young and in the realm of God!
Those who can survive in the city of Bushu are all sensible people.
For a while, with this person's position as the center, everyone who can see him, all flew away like a startled bird and scattered to a farther place.
Only one person went against the crowd.
Lian Heng, who had a small braid, came out lazily from nowhere.
The blood-colored tights on his body did have the harshness of blood.
He pulled out a narrow and slightly curved sword with his backhand, and shook it lightly, with a cold light all over the street: "A reminder. You can do anything in Bushu City, but if you want to kill someone, you need to pay a ransom of ten thousand times the life of that person first... Otherwise, you will be an enemy of Bushu City."
The new God-level strongman who entered the city said nothing, and only took a step in the air, and landed three blocks away, in front of a man with empty hands and alone.
Only then did he say: "Oh? Really?"
He asked the question casually, but his eyes were looking at the person in front of him... Xiao Shu.
"Damn it, I feel like I have no face here at all."
Behind this man, Lian Heng, dressed in blood-red clothes, chased him and jumped into the sky, holding a waist knife in his hand and flying down, facing the back of this man's head, and said in a fighting posture: "I warn you for the last time. This is not a redemption city, you must abide by the rules here!"
The powerful man who came for Xiao Shu was silent for a moment, as if he didn't expect this mere inner court cultivator to be so brave.
"Rules..." He nodded: "It seems that we should abide by them."
He turned around and looked at Lian Heng, and said in a relaxed tone: "You just said that the ransom needs to be ten thousand times the life gold, right? How much life gold did Xiao Shu give?"
Lian Heng held the waist knife in one hand. With his other hand, he took out the entry slip, glanced at it quickly, and said in an extremely serious and clear voice: "Forty-one thousand and twenty-seven Dao Yuan stones, twenty taels of red gold, thirteen taels of snowflake silver, twenty-six ring coins... buy life for forty days."
He added: "Today is the first day."
The man with a resolute face was silent for a moment, and then said firmly: "I am Zhang Xun, and I have my own rules!"
Everyone was surprised.
This person is the first person under the age of thirty in Dan Country, the genius of the God Realm, Zhang Xun!
"..."Lian Heng was also surprised, of course, he was not expecting the same thing, and took back the entry slip: "Do you mean you don't want to pay?"
Zhang Xun withdrew his gaze indifferently and walked towards Xiao Shu again. He said: "You can have your own understanding."
He said this to Lian Heng, and it seemed like he was saying it to Xiao Shu.
Indeed, everyone can have their own understanding, and none of this can change the outcome.
From beginning to end, Xiao Shu watched all this very calmly.
He said nothing.
He didn't even have any resistance.
He had already made all the efforts to escape here.
Putting life and death in the hands of others, hanging in the rules of others... This is not the choice of a strong man. But it was the only way he had, a way when he had reached the end of his rope.
What other way could he go?
And Lian Heng was furious!
He held his waist knife, and the whole person exuded a cold murderous aura, making people feel that he would chop Zhang Xun's forehead with the waist knife in the next moment.
Then he turned his head without hesitation and shouted in the direction of the prison building: "Good brother, come out quickly! Someone is messing up the place!!"
At this moment, Jiang Wang, who was sitting by the window on the fourth floor of the prison building:...
Jiang Wang remembered Xiao Shu.
Of course, he also remembered Zhang Xun.
On the Guanhe Terrace, in the unlimited field for those under 30 years old, Zhang Xun was the only one who was eager to try and wanted to take Li Yi's sword.
You can say he is too confident.
You can say he is overestimating his own abilities.
His determination to fight for the Dan Kingdom cannot be denied.
A man like him has now traveled thousands of miles to personally kill another genius of Dan Country.
It is really hard to comment on such a thing.
But what made Jiang Wang speechless was Lian Heng's voice.
My dear brother, I'm just passing by here.
What does your failure to redeem the city have to do with me? I didn't take their life money!
But Lord Jiang is a kind person after all.
He thought about Senior Brother Zhu who had joined the failure to redeem the city, thought about Xiao Shu's rough experience, thought about the sinner Huang Jinmo who was also sitting in the building but silent and didn't know what he was thinking...
He guessed that Huang Jinmo might not want to be hostile to Dan Country, and did Zhang Xun have a reason to capture and kill Xiao Shu? If he could come forward to make a turn, maybe this war could be avoided.
As his mind changed, he put on his cloak casually, and the person had already flown across the sky like a startled swan and landed in front of Xiao Shu!
In the gaze of many eyes, this appearance was very chic.
He was high-spirited, upright, and had an extraordinary figure. His slender and beautiful figure could not be concealed by the linen clothes at all. Although his cloak covered his head, he held the sword with one hand and faced the powerful man directly, with an air that could not be ignored: "Zhang Xun, Brother Zhang! Can you listen to a passerby's words?"
Zhang Xun looked up at him and frowned: "Jiang Wang, you have nothing to do here! The hand of Qi cannot reach the western border yet!"
The residents of Bushu City who were watching from afar were in an uproar.
There are many cultivators in the world who have not seen Jiang Wang, and there are very few who have not heard of Jiang Wang's name.
First there was Huanghe Kui Ming, then there was Tianxia Ju Mo, and then Yu Beidou and Sanxing Palace rectified his name as the first inner court in history. For a long time, it was difficult for people in the world not to hear the name of Jiang Wang!
And Jiang Wang himself...
Fell into an unspeakable and awkward silence.
Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
His original intention was to hide his identity and pretend to be an insider of Bushu City, showing his strength while preventing the dispute from expanding further. After the matter was done, he left with his merits and fame hidden.
Considering that he was wearing a cloak and linen clothes, and had always been well disguised, and that he was covered by the seal of the evil fight, and Zhang Xun's spiritual consciousness was not covered at this moment... I thought he could pretend to chat with him mysteriously.
But this Zhang Xun was completely uncooperative.
Not only did he recognize him, but he also called him out!
This made the "fully armed and mysterious" Lord Jiang very embarrassed!
But Lord Jiang at this time could never imagine...
Being recognized by Zhang Xun through the cloak at a glance was not the most embarrassing scene for him today.
Because immediately afterwards, Lian Heng, who was tied with a pigtail, said in a daze: "Brother, I'm not calling you."
Although he didn't say the rest of the words, his expression was already very obvious - you are not his opponent either. What are you doing jumping out?
At this moment, Jiang Wang wanted to draw his sword, of course not to cut Zhang Xun.
But this embarrassment did not last too long.
Because soon people knew who Lian Heng was shouting about!
Just as Zhang Xun continued to move forward without hesitation, he stopped.
He had to stop.
He had to look up at the sky—he was hurt!
A sharp edge that seemed to penetrate the sky and earth was aimed at his forehead.
He had to respond!
In the sky.
There was a big sun hanging high.
In the infinite light and heat, there was a particularly scorching and dazzling light.
It flashed, and then disappeared.
It disappeared and reappeared.
There was only a trace of red glow on the horizon.
The halo moved in the clouds.
A long spear entered the field of vision first, followed by the man who was endlessly flamboyant and sharp!
"There was only a trace of red glow on the horizon, and the halo moved in the clouds."
This is the picture I saw when I was running a few days ago, sharing it with you.
