Chapter 432: Bright City
At dawn the next day, it was still dark.
Leng Manyan and his line of six people flew into the sky under the leadership of the bitter Dao people, heading towards the Guangming City in the south of the Purple Confusion Country, according to the treasure map, the Guangming City area is located on the right side of the Purple Confusion Country, and the actual direction is in the south of the Purple Confusion Country, which is undoubtedly and will never be wrong.
As a relatively remote small city in the south of the Purple Confusion Country, the city of Guangming City is not very famous, but it is stained with the relationship between the glow of the city at sunset, so this bright city is covered with a thin veil of mystery, making it quite famous among the cities in the south.
But these are not the focus of Leng Manyan and others.
If it weren't for the fact that none of Leng Manyan's six people had ever been to Guangming City, they didn't have the memory of the route to Guangming City in their minds, and they couldn't open up a spatial passage to go directly to Guangming City, where would they use such a time-consuming and labor-intensive way to go to Guangming City now?
For several hours, Leng Manyan and the others never stopped.
It wasn't until three o'clock in the middle of the day that the seven arrived at the sky above the boundary of Guangming City, and chose to land in a stone forest outside Guangming City.
Coming out of the stone forest, all the way forward, Leng Manyan found that although the name of this Guangming City is good, if you really want to see the geographical environment nearby, Leng Manyan can only use one sentence to describe this Guangming City, that is, this Guangming City is actually a stone city with no grass, and he feels that the environment here is much worse than a vibrant place like the Qianzhi River.
After walking forward for a while, Leng Manyan finally saw the tall city in front of him, and quickly caught up with the bitter man, Leng Manyan said in his ear, "Old guy, how is this bright city full of rocks?" It's rare for it to have such a nice name, but if you really want to talk about it, it's simply not a single grass here! How are the people in the city? â
"You are wrong, the people in this Guangming City are rich! Every household doesn't look at food and clothing, and although this area is remote, it is the place where Zifu pays the most taxes every year, as if it is this bright city, and the taxes paid are the most paid in this area, and I also went back last night and asked Ji Shaohua's kid about these things. The bitter Taoist replied with a kind and kind voice.
It was as if Leng Manyan showed his Yin Yang Goddess last night, so now the bitter Daoist is much more polite to Leng Manyan, no longer as cold as before, and the tone of his speech makes Leng Manyan a little unbearable.
However, his words aroused the suspicion of Leng Manyan, Long Xiaofeng and others.
Everywhere this Guangming City comes into view, there is not a single grass growing everywhere, how did it become the area where the most taxes are paid in the Purple Confusion Country? Not to mention Leng Manyan, they couldn't figure it out, and even the bitter Taoist who heard Emperor Ji Shaohua talk about it with his own ears was still quite unconvinced.
Frowning and thinking for a while, Leng Manyan shook his head and said, "I still don't believe it, there is no grass here, what do they rely on to be rich?" â
"Mining! Because of such a terrain, there are rich mineral deposits in the underground, gold, silver, copper and iron are all kinds of strange wilderness, only the open stone that you can't think of, the ore that you can't dig can't dig out, it is said that jade has been dug out here, crystal stone, black stone and so on! You say that the people in this area are not rich. The bitter Taoist immediately explained to Leng Manyan and them.
When he said this, the six of them nodded in relief.
If it is really like what the bitter Taoist said, there are a large number of rich mineral deposits in the underground area of this Guangming City, then this is said in the past, even if the people in this area do not grow crops, rely exclusively on mining and export to make a living, and then import grain and so on in exchange, then they come and go, they are also worry-free, gold and silver slam!
Leng Manyan sighed, there is no place like zĂ i in Tianlong, and even if there is, it is absolutely impossible to have such a rich mineral deposit in this area.
Seeing that Leng Manyan and the six people stopped talking, he smiled and said, "As soon as Ji Shaohua's kid heard that we were going to come to Guangming City to explore the treasure today, he was the overnight flying pigeon messenger and the city lord of Guangming City, and asked them to serve as a reception in advance, and to entertain me, the uncle regent, and the two princesses of you, I'm afraid that outside Guangming City for a while, the city lord of Guangming City has already lined up with people and horses to wait for us." â
"Yo! He's so fast! Leng Manyan and the others exclaimed in unison.
"Huh...... Let's go! The bitter man laughed happily and quickened his pace.
After a while, the group walked outside the city of Light.
Sure enough, as the bitter Taoist said, they were far away from the gate of Guangming City, when they saw a young official dressed in the official uniform of the Purple Confusion Country outside the gate of Guangming City, leading more than a dozen officials and people of all sizes in the nearby city, waiting for them there.
As soon as the seven of them walked outside the city gate, the young official who was at the front of all the people stepped forward respectfully and said to the seven people, "Dare to ask the seven, but from the capital of confusion, the regent is there?" â
"The old man is exact, are you?" The ascetic man stepped forward and asked.
"Xia Guan is the city lord of Guangming City in the Purple Confusion Country, Guangyao, and he specially led a group of city lords to greet the regent and the two princesses, the regent and the two princesses, Chitose Chitose Chitose." This is called a glorious young official, and he very respectfully introduces himself to the bitter Taoist and Leng Manyan.
At the end of the words, Guangyao led a group of people to kneel down and kowtow to Leng Manyan and them.
As the oldest and oldest ascetic among the seven, at this time, he naturally wanted to take out the majesty of the regent and forcibly lifted his rickety back, and the ascetic raised his head and shouted majestically, "Get up!" This king and the two princesses are all visiting in micro-service this time, and they came to Guangming City to do business, so they don't have to stick to the form, let everyone do what they should do! Just glorify you and the city lords and talk to us in the city lord's mansion. â
"Yes, Lord Regent, the lower officials obey the order." As soon as Guangyao heard the bitter Taoist's instructions, he didn't say a word, and led everyone to get up, first dismissing the people, and then Guangyao and the city lords welcomed the seven people into the city of light.
As soon as the seven of them entered the City of Light, they were stupid in an instant!
The inside and outside of the city of light are simply two different scenery! Look closely at the outside of the bright city, it is not a single inch of grass, the rocks are craggy, a bleak scene, you can see people from head to toe, but in this bright city, it is every household wearing gold and silver, the streets and alleys are lively and noisy, people come and go, shoulder to shoulder, it is simply a thriving and prosperous scene.
This simply stunned Leng Manyan and the others.
Guangyao seemed to be very satisfied with the expressions of Leng Manyan and the seven people, his eyes swept over the faces of Leng Manyan and Ji Yao, Guangyao walked to the side of the ascetic man in a timely manner, and said to the ascetic man humbly, "Lord Regent, there was a rumbling in the country that the regent returned and brought the two twin princesses, Guangyao also heard of it, but he had never seen it, and now that he saw the regent himself, Guangyao felt that the regent was majestic, and the two princesses were even more extraordinary, fresh and refined!" Guangyao was impressed. â
"Huh...... You kid is very good at talking, the old man likes it, but you kid don't just salute us, don't forget these two, he is the emperor of the Tianlong Kingdom, and he is the emperor Zhu Yu of the Xifeng Kingdom, these two emperors, don't be slow, otherwise it will damage the prestige of my Purple Confusion Country! The ascetic man was glorified with this sycophant, and he was photographed all over the body, and he laughed.
At the end of the laugh, the ascetic man opened his mouth again to remind the glory.
When Guangyao heard this, where did he dare to be slow, and hurriedly led the city lords to salute Long Xiaofeng and Zhu Yu, the two of them couldn't stand the enthusiasm of Guangyao and the others, so they just waved their hands and followed perfunctory, until they walked into the golden and brilliant huge city lord of Guangming City, Guangyao and the others gave up, and quietly led the seven people into the palace-like palace in the front yard of the city lord's mansion.
At this time, in this hall, a big banquet has already been prepared, colored with countless delicacies, far away, Leng Manyan and others smelled the fragrance of the delicacies on the table, hooking the seven people are a burst of saliva, they came in a hurry in the morning, and they really didn't eat breakfast! Now that their stomachs are extremely hungry, it is rare to see such a table of delicacies, where can they not drool?
But this royal majesty is there.
Quietly followed Guangyao and the others all the way to sit at the round table, and after everyone was seated, Guangyao introduced to the bitter Taoist, "Lord Regent, this is Lord Geng from the neighboring city of Iron City, and that is Lord Jiao from the neighboring city of Haomiao City, that is ......."
"Okay, you adults can put down the important things in their hands, come to greet the old man and others, the old man is very pleased, come, don't just talk about talking, let's talk while eating, the banquet is naturally to eat while talking, empty talk or not to eat, that's not the style of our purple people, everyone doesn't have to be restrained, let go of eating and drinking!" The ascetic man listened to Guangyao's introduction, and he gave a fist to the adults in the neighboring city one by one, and shouted politely.
As the saying goes, a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake.
The ascetic people know that these people are the head snakes in this area, and this time they came to explore the treasure, and they need their strong help, with their help, the treasure exploration will be carried out smoothly, so be polite to them at this time, that is also a necessary thing, this officialdom, it is originally said that one thing wants to do another, these are understandable, as early as a few decades ago, he understood this truth, and now he is old and refined, where will the ascetic people not know how to treat this group of officials?
