Chapter 633 [Audience with the City Lord]
Anyway, he couldn't sleep, so Yang Yi sat in place and shot for a night, and this night, there were countless demon beasts killed by him.
In the morning, the sky had just dawned, and the outside of the city was full of corpses of demon beasts, as if the room full of mosquitoes was suddenly sprayed with insecticide, and the whole place was covered with black corpses.
The closest corpse to Yang Yi was only a hundred meters away, and it was absolutely two thousand meters away, and Yang Yi killed it by feeling.
This night, Yang Yi absolutely accurately mastered the performance of this gun, and also roughly understood the lethal parts of these demon beasts.
Most of their bodies are very aggressive, but their heads are definitely the weakness of the weakness, one crash to death, one collapse to death.
When the day came, the guards of the city were on duty again.
This time, the eyes of the two guards yesterday trembled when they saw Yang Yi, what was going on with that powerful weapon? It didn't take much effort on the part of a man to kill a demon beast from a distance of a thousand meters, if he took this thing and smashed it into their heads......
I can't imagine it.
But they didn't open the door to them because of that.
However, the attitude of the two people is much better.
"If you want to enter the city, you must prove that you are humans and not monsters, otherwise we must follow our own rules, sorry." One of the guards said.
"Bring me a knife." Yang Yi was not angry at his devotion to duty, but on the contrary, he admired it.
A knife passed through the door.
Yang Yi took the knife and slashed directly on his finger, and the blood immediately dripped down.
That's the best proof of this.
The circulatory system of demon beasts runs energy, while the human body runs blood, which is the biggest difference between humans and demon beasts.
Yang Yi lightly stabbed Xiangyi's little finger with the tip of the knife again. There was a streak of blood.
The two guards in the city immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and they had to open the city gates for them.
"I'm sorry for both of you. We also play by the rules. As soon as they entered the city gate, the two guards immediately apologized to Yang Yi and the others.
"No need. It's your duty. Yang Yi smiled, but Xiangyi glared at them with a snort, and it was one person and one foot when he went up.
"Tell you, I'm a princess, keep your eyes open, I'm a princess." Xiang Yi snorted and shouted.
At this time, the two guards did not resist, firstly, this man would become an important person in the city, and secondly, they were really not sure that this girl was not a princess.
Thinking about laughing at her yesterday, it feels a little oppressive.
"Alright. Let's go. Yang Yi scratched her nose, and was about to leave, when a team came from the avenue ahead, with a uniform pace sonorous and powerful, a color of golden armor, and the route seemed to point directly to the city gate.
At first glance, this team is not a team defending the city, and the momentum is more like ...... The personal escort of a certain big man, well-trained and powerful.
Yang Yi had a feeling that this team was coming to them.
That's right. It's the one who came to them.
"Are you two from outside the city who just entered the city?" The man at the front was obviously the captain, with a dignified face.
Yang Yi nodded, he didn't realize what the situation was yet.
"The city lord wants to see you, so please come with me to the city lord's mansion." The captain said.
"I was just thinking about seeing your city lord." Xiangyi shouted, "Hurry up and lead the way." ”
The captain froze. This girl's tone is not small.
But they were now important guests of the city lord, and even if he said so, he didn't dare to talk nonsense, and made a gesture of please. Go with them to the right and left of the city.
"Why do you want to see us?" Yang Yi asked as he walked.
"Probably something to do with the weapon you're using." The captain replied.
Yang Yi was stunned and immediately understood the reason.
His weapon can kill monsters from a distance. If the border soldiers were able to possess such weapons, it would mean that casualties could be greatly reduced.
It seems that this city lord is a very sensitive soldier.
Yang Yi smiled. Enjoy the scenery of the city.
This city is close to the woods, and the most convenient material is wood, so the houses in the city are all made of wood, but unlike the wooden houses on the earth, most of the trees here are very huge, even if the smallest wood in the woods is one or two meters in diameter, such wood is cut to build a house, and the quality of the house is better than that of a brick house.
The most peculiar thing is that all the houses seen along the street do not have a single nail, and the yin and yang grooves are cut between the planks and the planks, and the two planks are stuck with each other, and they are tightly inlaid together, accumulating one by one, and there is no need for nails at all.
It looks like making blocks.
Due to the greater moldability of the wooden panels, the houses seen along the street have their own different styles under the different ideas and designs of each owner, and it seems that each house is a work of art.
Most of the residents in the city are very simple, get up early to farm, people have come to farm, some vegetables and fruits planted in the field are brought back and sold along the street, and some craftsmen also start to set up stalls early, most of them do not shout, they sit in front of the stall and do handicrafts, and some people want to buy things and shout.
Other early women inquired about the price of food on the street, apparently intending to buy some fresh food to cook home for breakfast.
Most of the men walking on the streets are very strong, which is very suitable for the border city, and these people can be added to the army at any time when there are casualties in the army.
The further you go, the denser the crowd becomes, the more abundant the bazaar, and you can even see some caravans shuttling through the crowd, and the shops on both sides are gradually increasing, although there is no business just open, and the guys in the shops are still yawning, but the sun shines on the faces of these people, and it looks particularly simple and moving.
That's the small-town vibe, right!?
If it weren't for the monster invasion every night, the dark world would be a great place to experience exotic customs.
Yang Yi and the two followed the captain all the way to the center of the city.
I have to sigh at the huge size of this city, although it is said that the speed of their walking is not fast, except for Xiangyi stopping to buy some food along the way, they have not stopped until noon.
At such a distance, they didn't even know to call a car when they came, and they really couldn't figure it out.
The Castle Lord's Mansion is magnificent, but it can be seen from the incongruous style of the gate and the exterior wall that this Castle Lord's Mansion has been visited by several city lords.
The wall of the city lord's mansion has a golden carved wood, which looks delicate and exquisite, and the gate courtyard is magnificent and domineering without decoration, and there is a square plaque directly above the gate, on which the dragon and the phoenix dance have a word written on it.
Power!
One word, showing the demeanor of a general.
The gate is the most important place to enter and exit, so every city lord must make a transformation of the gate to show his own style, as for the rest of the place, it depends on the style of the new city lord, and the careful city lord will definitely let people remove all the traces left by the predecessor, such as civil officials are more concerned about these things. It's not necessarily necessary to be a military attaché, just like the current city lord, who obviously didn't put his mind on these unnecessary places.
The carvings on the wall are obviously the traces left by the previous city lord, and it can basically be judged that the previous city lord was a civil official, and this city lord is also a military general without thinking too much, and his personality should be heroic and generous.
At the same time, this person should also be quite sharp, otherwise he will not realize so quickly that the weapon in his hand can bring extremely important changes to the border defense.
The thick and the fine are Yang Yi's evaluation of this city lord.
"Please." The captain made a gesture of please, stood on the side of the door and asked Yang Yi and Xiangyi to go in first.
Yang Yi nodded, took Xiangyi's hand and walked in.
The courtyard was large, but there were no frills, and the flat grass had been smoothed out, and it was clear that the lord of the city often came to the front yard to practice on his own, and he didn't need those miscellaneous things to get in the way.
Walk through the path to the atrium, the atrium is a house, this house is like a screen in front and back, the main entrance is connected to the back door, and in the middle is the hall, from the tables and chairs on both sides, it can be seen that this is also a place to receive visitors, but it is not so formal.
Entering through the back door through the hall, you will find the back courtyard of the mansion, where a row of side rooms is arranged, and in the front of the room, a sturdy middle-aged man is practicing with another relatively young man.
The corner of the sturdy middle-aged man's eyes glanced at the two people who came over, and he was stunned and surprised.
"Subordinate Huo Wei to see the second princess." The middle-aged man immediately fell to the ground and folded his hands in salute.
The subordinate who practiced with him heard that the general said that it was the second princess, and he immediately knelt on the ground and worshiped him before he had time to see it.
The captain who sent them all the way was the most surprised, and after being stunned for a while, he quickly knelt down.
Yang Yi looked at these people with tears and laughter.
However, Xiangyi's face put on a look that someone finally recognized the princess, raised her head and said: "Get up, someone finally recognizes the princess, you two guards locked me and my husband outside the city for one night, this account will be settled with you later, now prepare some fruit for me first, I want to eat something." ”
"Yes! Don't go yet. Howe got up and stepped aside and ordered his men to get ready.
"Second princess, why did you come here?" Huo Wei frowned and asked, he didn't receive any notice that the princess had come back to their border city, and she had come from the wrong place, how could she come from outside the city?
His gaze looked at Yang Yi, this is the second princess's man?
Calm and calm, his strength is stronger than him, and he is worthy of being a princess's man.
"You don't care about it." Xiang Yi shook her hand and strode towards the house, Yang Yi behind her shook her head with a wry smile, and said to Huo Wei: "General Huo, don't punish those two guards, they are just doing their duty, don't listen to her nonsense." ”
"Huh." Howe nodded, and from the expression on his face, he knew that he also knew something about the princess's character, and obviously didn't intend to take her words seriously. (To be continued......)
