Chapter 1372: First Arrival in the Imperial Capital
"That's what it is...... The imperial capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Wu Kong looked at the environment in the city with some surprise.
The scope of this imperial capital is quite large, about 100 million light years long and wide, not too large, but much smaller than Wu Kong expected.
Moreover, there are no floating islands, no long rivers formed by the starry sky, and other things, just huge streets and huge buildings.
To put it simply, there is a teahouse on the side of the road, called "Yingbin Building", the name is not unusual, this building is not an ordinary teahouse, it is a place to introduce "tour guides" to the new people who come to the imperial capital. How big is it?
The width of the faΓ§ade, ten trillion kilometers, that is, the length of one light year, the depth of the front and back, twenty-five trillion kilometers, that is, the depth of two and a half light years, the height, is divided into five layers, the top layer is said to be unpopular, only three trillion kilometers in height, the lower four layers, the first layer has a height of more than 5 trillion kilometers, and the second, third and fourth layers have a height of 4.8 trillion kilometers.
Among them, there are about two stairs on each floor, and each staircase has 20 steps, for a total of 40 steps. Each step is about 120 billion kilometers.
Suppose that there are mortals who can stay in this imperial capital without being suppressed to death by the breath here, riding a low-level spaceship of 35 kilometers per second, then it will take one hundred and eight to one hundred and nine years to fly over the height of the first step and fly from the first floor to the second floor, which will take more than 4,000 years!!
Exaggeration, right?
What's even more exaggerated is that if a mortal wants to fly around in a spaceship, he can't do it at all, he can't do it.
At least at least the Lord of the Great Thousand Universe level can survive in the Great Zhou Imperial Capital.
However, the powerful force here will compress the Lord of the Thousand Universes to the extent that it is only the size of a speck of dust. You must use an official Immortal Artifact to fly.
For an ordinary Immortal King, his body would be suppressed to the size of a normal person, and it would not be easy to travel through this city in this environment.
The eternal Lord, before the flame of hope is lit, cannot grow in size at will, and cannot support it. And the first realm of eternal life ignites the flame of hope, and when you reach the second realm of eternal life and the third realm of eternal life, you can become big here.
For example, in order to be able to clearly see the situation in this city, Wu Kong's figure flickered, and it grew to a size of 3600 billion kilometers in an instant.
"Whew...... It looks much more pleasing to the eye. β
With a height of 3.6 trillion kilometers, there is a distance of nearly a trillion kilometers in one step. The propagation speed of sound is only 300 meters per second, and the speed of light is 300,000 kilometers per second.
Fortunately, in this imperial capital, there is a "dimensional light", ignoring the spatial distance and ignoring the obstacles of the dimensional level, irradiating and reflecting, so you can see the distant scene across the space, don't worry, to see the other side of the restaurant from this side of the restaurant, it takes a year to wait for the light to come, in order to see the opposite scene, which is too outrageous and exaggerated.
But to communicate here, you have to think of God.
The strength of the Eternal Lord's divine thoughts is difficult for the Lord of the Great Universe to bear, so he generally does not communicate directly with the Eternal Lord, unless the Eternal Lord deliberately lowers the strength of his divine thoughts, and the Lord of the Great Thousand Universes is riding something like the standard Immortal Battle Armor.
"When the body grows to the size of 3.6 trillion kilometers, it doesn't look like the city is very big. β
Wu Kong can't fly here, in fact, very few people can fly in the imperial capital, and they can't even run wild at will, but if they have a specific mount, they can run wild, and they can fly in some areas. Of course, it is also possible to have a high status. But most of the flights can only fly along the street, and cannot fly directly from residential restaurants and the like. As for flying to the palace and flying over the residences of the princes and ministers, it is even more impossible.
"If this city is 100 million light-years in size, with my current body, if I don't run wildly, it will take a billion steps to walk from this side to the other side of the city. Assuming that every second step would have to take nearly 280,000 hours, 761 hours. However, the rules of this city are not strong enough to become too big.
"Even if my strength and status are high enough, under normal circumstances, I can't change the altitude of more than five trillion kilometers at will. You can't run wildly, you can't fly wildly at will, if you want to go to the palace to meet Emperor Da Zhou, you still need to find something to travel. β
Wu Kong walked towards the restaurant next to him and found that there were many Masters of the Great Universe inside, as well as many Immortal Kings, but there were no Immortal Lords. They were all wearing the Immortal Divine Armor, the Immortal Divine Armor looked like a mecha, and after wearing it, their body shape was also nearly three trillion kilometers high, slightly lower than Wu Kong. Others, the Immortal Divine Armor is only two trillion kilometers high.
In other places, let alone two trillion kilometers, two trillion trillion light years, the Lord of the Universe can become out, but here, the suppression of the imperial qi does not become high at all, and the height can only be increased by wearing divine armor.
Wu Kong entered, and instantly a man wearing golden divine armor came over, and the armor on his body was different from that of men and women, and this person said: "Dare to ask the guest officer if he wants to sit in the lobby or in the box?"
"Just find a spot here. β
Wu Kong said, and found a place to sit down.
The whole hall is quite vast, and if you make everything to a normal size, you can create mountains here, you can lay out many suns, moons and stars, you can stack a lot of them here, and you can sit countless guests. However, this is a different setting.
A table, almost a trillion kilometers, a chair, also hundreds of billions of kilometers. Wu Kong could only make his body smaller and then sit down. But even so, there are not many such seats in the hall. Slightly crowded.
Wu Kong was curious, called the waiter, and asked, "Your hall has enough space, why do you have to set up such a large seat here?"
The waiter said, "This is the first time the guest officer has come to the capital, right?"
"That's right. Wu Kongdao.
"The guest officer doesn't know something, we people in the capital like to pay attention to pomp, this pomp is not atmospheric enough, and the face will be dull. Therefore, the seat here must be trillions of kilometers wide. β
Wu Kong said curiously: "This is the city gate, there should be a lot of guests coming and going, right? If it is full and new guests come in, what should I do? Could it be that when it is full, it will no longer entertain guests?"
"How can it be? If more than ninety percent of the seats are occupied, our internal space here will continue to expand and expand, don't look at the outside faΓ§ade is only 10 trillion kilometers, but our restaurant has obtained the space expansion permission, under the blessing of the fortune of the gathering array, the interior can be increased to a hundred billion kilometers, and the seats that can be put down can be increased more than 100 times. The waiter said.
If the length and width are increased tenfold, the area will be increased by a hundredfold.
Wu Kong nodded slightly: "Now, the number of people doesn't seem to be much." β
"It's not much, because all the state cities are preparing for the state exam, and after the state exam is the domain exam, where the flow of people gathers. Of course, it is also because of the martial law in the capital, and in recent times, people who have not been allowed to enter the capital at will are not allowed to enter the capital at will. In addition, we are an intermediary here, and generally only new arrivals to the capital will come to settle here. By the way, what do you need to drink, do you need a tour guide in the city?"
"Serve me a pot of tea. Also, how much does the tour guide here cost. β
The waiter handed over a tea order.
The tea list is a thing that looks like a book, and when you open it, part of it is the price of various tea drinks and snacks, which is beautifully made and the materials are rare, which can not only satisfy the ~~ desire of the eternal lord, but also provide a certain amount of spiritual assistance to the eternal lord. For example, various ingredients and various medicinal teas that contain the power of luck in various places and different attributes, such as the Lord of the Universe, the Origin Essence, and so on.
The price is not cheap either.
But there was no alcohol.
On the other side of the tea list, there is the "tour guide hiring", which lists the names of a tour guide in the city, ranging from the master realm of the universe to the realm of the eternal lord, there are men and women, and the cultivation strength is not weak, and every tour guide is quite familiar with all kinds of big and small things in Beijing except for the imperial palace.
Employment is measured in a minimum of days, a minimum of one day, and a maximum of 100 years. Not more than a thousand years at most. The price gap also varies. However, every tour guide is officially registered, and those who choose a tour guide must be responsible for the safety of the tour guide.
In addition, you can also choose the "Guide Book", which is actually a memory light group, which contains a map of most of the entire capital, but a detailed map of the area where the princes and nobles lived, there is none. There is no information related to the Imperial Palace. And there is only a brief introduction to the various buildings in various places, and there are no in-depth details. For example, in the past 10,000 years, what is new in the capital, whether there is any abnormal situation in a certain place in a few years, etc., these news contents, all of which are not recorded, because these materials are under the control of industries such as news newspapers, and this teahouse is not qualified to provide relevant information.
At the same time, it is also to protect the tour guide industry, if any information is provided directly, the tour guide will not be able to get the resources to practice. Therefore, it is also restricted here, prohibiting any tour guide from condensing all the information he knows about the situation in the city into a memory light group. However, it is possible to communicate with voice, with divine thoughts. This protects the interests of a large number of tour guides. At the same time, it is also convenient for this welcome building to continue to run and take a commission.
"Yes, the service scope of this welcome building is very convenient for people who have just arrived in Beijing, but there are also many entanglements of interests within this industry. Not to mention anything else, there is no record of where the food is best in a single city, where the security is the best, where the luck is the most condensed, and where there are special commodities for sale, except for the residential areas of the princes and nobles. β
In this way, information can only be obtained through the tour guide, the tour guide has a crooked mouth, some stores in the city, the price and service are about the same, and whoever is good can do it, which is another benefit.
Of course, it is also stipulated here that the tour guide cannot pit the guests, and cannot talk nonsense, otherwise there will be complaints. Moreover, most of those who can afford to hire tour guides are not weak.
"It's much better to know the information about the city through the mouth of the guide than to go around. β
At that moment, Wu Kong asked for a map and spent five drops of immortal liquid, which was incredibly expensive. But the map is also detailed enough.
Judging from the map, there are many welcoming buildings, and there are welcome buildings near several city gates, and there are also welcome buildings around the teleportation array. There are also some mount rentals.
"You have to rent a mount, the alien eternal lord does not have the right to fly and the right to shuttle in space, but the mount here itself has the right to fly and the right to shuttle in space, and they have all been trained accordingly, and I don't need to understand the traffic rules and the like at all, just understand the rented mount. β
It's almost the equivalent of a taxi in the mortal world.
Wu Kong said: "I also want a tour guide." β
chose a tour guide in the realm of eternal life, Wu Kong was worried that something would happen to him, and if he accidentally involved the tour guide and died, it would be troublesome, and it was not clear whether it would affect his reputation. As for the living Lord, it doesn't matter how much he dies. Although the price is a bit expensive.
The tour guide was also wearing gold armor and was a beautiful woman.
"Take the deity to the nearest place and rent a mount. The price is not high or low. Wu Kongdao.
Not long ago, I rented a nine phoenix. The nine-headed phoenix is huge, and there is a giant in tow, the shape of the giant is immutable, and the interior can be arbitrary. Wu Kong asked the tour guide to follow him into the car and tour the capital as soon as possible.
Wu Kong: This is to understand the environment, in case there is any problem, a big war or the like, the environment of the streets and alleys is familiar, and it is naturally much more convenient. Not to mention how good the security of Kyoto is, no matter how good the security environment is, there are dark corners, not that the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty cannot monitor all places, but because both the Emperor of Heaven and the officials and lords in the city need some dark corners and do something that is not good for being exposed.
The Emperor of Heaven does not monitor the whole city, and he says: "Respect the privacy of the princes". Therefore, there are all kinds of patrols in the city, and the Emperor of Heaven does not need to monitor the whole city all the time, and the officials do not need to be worried all the time. If necessary, it is also possible to deliberately deviate from certain places where there is a fight, as long as it does not cause too much damage, which is enough for many shady things to happen, such as fights, dark transactions, etc.
Wu Kong is about to compete for the throne, although it is a fair and righteous matter, but the opponent may not use shady means. Understanding the whole city of the capital will help you a lot for the next thing.
In this way, he had a general understanding of the whole city, and while there was still some time, Wu Kong went to visit the Emperor of Heaven.
"Want to ask to see Your Majesty?" the female guide stared at Wu Kong in surprise.
"That's right, what kind of procedure do you have to go through to meet Your Majesty?" Wu Kong asked.
The female tour guide was a little stunned: "Unless it is an official above the third grade, please see you through the fold." or the court, otherwise, if you are not summoned, you will not be able to take the initiative to meet His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven. β
"And this kind of statement?" Wu Kong felt a little big.
It seems that this is another difficult problem set by the Emperor of Heaven.
"What if the Emperor of Heaven has a token with me and asks me to come to see me?" Wu Kong asked.
"If you are a civil official, report to the Ministry of Rites, if you are an officer, report to the Ministry of Rites......
Wu Kong was speechless.
He turned over his hand and took out his badge, thinking to himself, "If I can't see the Emperor before the appointed time, will that guy directly dismiss my qualification as a 'candidate for the throne'?"
