Chapter 837 836 The Overwhelming Strength Is Documentary Literature
Chapter 837 836. The overwhelming power is documentary literature
Although neither Mo Cheng nor Shen Xueqi knew the road, they had no problems with their physical fitness. They quickly found the river and walked downstream.
The two of them have good cultivation. Even if they don't fly, they can walk hundreds of miles in a day without any problem, and this is at [walking] speed.
If you determine a direction and run straight away, it will be faster.
But when he didn't know where he was and how to get to [Nanli Dao Domain], Mo Cheng was cautious and didn't rush to find a direction and start running.
If you run in the wrong position, you won't even know whether the world is round or not. If you run in the wrong position, you will have to spend more time correcting it.
Walking along the river, we soon saw the official road. If we could see the official road, we could basically confirm that there was a human gathering place nearby.
After walking for about half an hour, the two came across a village, but when they entered, they found that there was no human habitation there.
"There is no smell of blood, and the doors and windows in the house are closed and locked. It seems that it was not a temporary act, nor was it driven away."
Mo Cheng briefly checked the deserted village and came to the conclusion that the people in this village were evacuated in an orderly manner. If it was looted by bandits and bandits, then there should be corpses and the smell of blood here.
"This should be because of the undercurrent." Shen Xueqi said softly, "When the undercurrent appears, the city lord of the big city has the obligation to take the surrounding villagers to the city for refuge, and then repatriate them after the undercurrent passes."
It seems that this world has a full understanding of the [undercurrent], and has specially formulated relevant regulations.
In this village, Mo Cheng found two pieces of news, one good and one bad.
The bad news is, the place is deserted.
The good news is that there is a city not far from this place.
Mo Cheng looked at the sky. If the distance was close enough, they should be able to reach a nearby city before the sun went down.
"You seem to want to get to the city as soon as possible."
Shen Xueqi's voice was cold and calm, but Mo Cheng still heard a trace of doubt in it.
If he guessed correctly, this sounds like a statement, but is it actually a question?
"My luggage was lost due to the undercurrent, and when I opened my eyes, I was in the undercurrent. I am not familiar with the area. You can buy atlas (map) in the city and know where to go to [Nanli Dao Domain] Where to go."
As he said this, Mo Cheng suddenly realized that because he was born into this world, he had no such thing as luggage.
But apart from the Fang Tian painted halberd in her hand, Shen Xueqi didn't seem to see anything like a package.
Although it is not too much for a real person of Master Wanghan's level to give his disciples storage props, Mo Cheng still decided to make sure.
"Miss Shen, I see that you don't seem to be saluting. Did you forget to bring it with you in a rush to go out?"
Shen Xueqi turned her head and thought for a moment, then took out a small wallet and said, "You need money to barter with the stores in the town below the mountain. If you need to change clothes, I have this - the Clothes Purification Talisman."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of talisman paper and patted it on Mo Cheng's shoulder. The talisman paper suddenly turned into a breeze and passed around his body. The leaves, burrs, and dirt on his clothes that Mo Cheng had not paid attention to while walking on the mountain disappeared. Empty.
Well, with this kind of thing, changing clothes is really not necessary.
At the same time, Mo Cheng also confirmed that Shen Xueqi's cold temperament, which was so cold that she almost avoided strangers, was not caused by anything else but simply not communicating with others.
After the two men repaired it a little, they continued along the official road. After walking for two hours, they finally saw the towering city wall.
It was really high. Mo Cheng's visual inspection showed that the city wall was almost ten feet high.
A thirty-meter-high city wall, this scene could only appear in a world with immortal cultivators.
Mo Cheng was not idle along the way, communicating with Shen Xueqi from time to time.
Rather than talking about communication, it is better to say that Mo Cheng is talking. Although Shen Xueqi rarely goes down the mountain to visit people, it also allows Mo Cheng to know something about the situation in this world.
In this world, immortals and mortals live together, and immortals are very rare.
Some live in famous mountains and rivers, but their places are unknown in the depths of the clouds.
Some live in seclusion in the city, playing in the world.
However, although immortals are rare, immortal cultivators are not rare, and this world is not dominated by immortal cultivators.
Countries stand side by side and kings compete for hegemony, just like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Hundreds of schools of thought set up academies to educate the people, striving to become the best in the world in their own teachings.
The blood of the army is soaring to the sky, and the power of the conquering army is condensed into one force, which is invincible.
It is no lie that a warrior can cut off rivers and split mountains and earth with his roar.
As for the king of a country, he is not a rubber stamp, but a super strong man who can truly suppress the world and run rampant with force.
In this world, the story of a king trying to measure the weight of a country is told.
It is documentary literature, not fantasy literature.
It's just that although the king is strong, he still has generals, ministers, academy chiefs, etc. to check and compete with each other.
They chatted all the way to the city gate. After paying the gate fee, they entered the city. Both Mo Cheng and Shen Xueqi looked around curiously along the way.
Shen Xueqi rarely went down the mountain and came to a new environment out of curiosity. The same is true for Mo Cheng. This is the first city he arrived in after coming to this world.
The city guards at the city gate had no intention of embarrassing Mo Cheng and Shen Xueqi. Whether it was the long sword on Mo Cheng's back or Shen Xueqi's Fang Tian painted halberd, which could be called a murder weapon, it was enough to deter those who just wanted to get away with collecting city gate fees. The city guard of the day.
Because of the undercurrent, many people have come to the city recently. The city guards have tried to take advantage of the opportunity to ask for benefits, but those Jianghu people with bad tempers or petty immortal cultivators have given these people a lesson.
After entering the city, Mo Cheng planned to find an inn first. From the city gate, he heard that although there was no curfew in the city at night, sleeping on the roadside was not allowed and a room was required.
Of course, if you can, it's okay to stay up all night, but the duration of the undertow can be as short as three to five days, or as long as ten days and a half. No one is willing to stay up for ten and a half months just to save some money.
This may be a regulation due to the undercurrent, or it may simply be an opportunity for residents in the city to make extra money through this regulation.
After all, whenever an undertow comes, the city is operating at nearly full capacity, and the inn rooms alone cannot meet the demand.
At this time, some local residents can sort out their own rooms and rent them out at a price lower than the average price of an inn.
After asking a few people on the road, Mo Cheng and Shen Xueqi went straight to the largest inn in the city. Although the number of guest rooms in the city was now tight, it was like traveling during a holiday. Even the double rooms and double rooms in five-star hotels were unavailable.
You can also see that luxurious rooms such as the [Presidential Suite] are still vacant.
"Shop owner, here are two first-class rooms."
