Chapter 92: Pretty Beauty
Seoul was the easternmost city of the Blue Dragon Empire, close to the border and adjacent to the Kiyang Empire. Because they are separated by a vast forest, it is difficult for the two sides to reach each other, and there is no need to worry about it. Seoul is the most densely populated area in the vicinity, and it is located on the main transportation route, connecting the north and the south, and is also considered the largest city in the entire empire.
It was noon, and on a small road not far from Seoul, several teenagers came leisurely on horses.
"Xiao Kui, didn't you tell you to find a carriage?
"Sister Tang, spare me. Where did you tell me to find a carriage in the barren mountains and mountains before?"
"Nangong boy, if you are looking for a horse, you can find a horse, why do you provoke these fierce wild horses? Don't you know that we are almost going to die in the belly of the horse?"
"This ...... Hehe, isn't it fortunate that there is a big brother Tianlan? Brother Tianlan, I didn't expect you to be so good at taming horses!"
"What's the ...... Next time, I'll show you a few stupid horses!"
"Ye nerd, forget it, is it okay to learn more from Gongzi? Be careful that you will be kicked by a horse next time!"
"Horse taming is also a science, Ye Yi, do you want to learn?"
"Of course—"
"With your ingenuity, I think it won't take you seven or eight years to learn something. ”
"That's ...... Seven or eight years?!That's too long, isn't it...... Forget it, it's a hassle!"
These four young talents are the four of them, after they left the Valley of Hundred Flowers, it took them nearly half a month, all the way through the rugged mountain road, and today they can be regarded as walking to a more decent avenue. Half a month is not a long time, but it is not a short time, several of them have similar interests, no estrangement, and soon become good friends who have nothing to say, and quarrels are commonplace.
"Hey, is this 'Seoul'? Wow, it's really big!" Ye Yi couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the huge town sitting on the plains from afar. How much does it take to be in Soaring City?
"I really haven't seen the world!" Xiaotang grimaced at him and said, "Don't say you know us...... Look, even Xiaokui is laughing at you!"
Nangong Kui suddenly changed from laughing to stunned when he heard this, and clarified aggrievedly: "No, no, Sister Tang, why did you suddenly get involved with me...... Who did I recruit and mess with......"
Tianlan looked at the majestic Seoul in the distance and said leisurely: "Seoul is the seventh largest city in the empire, connecting the north and the south, and in recent years, it seems that it has also heard that it has formed a shortcut with the Qiyang Empire in the east, and its importance is not the same. ”
"Brother Tianlan," Nangong Kuizema came to his side and said, "I heard that the relationship between the Qinglong Empire and the Qiyang Empire in the past two years has not been good, and it may turn into a war at any time, is that so?"
Tianlan glanced at him and said, "The enmity between the empire and Qiyang is very deep, it is not an overnight thing, the people of the two countries must have expected it, why do you ask me." ”
Nangong Kui is timid by nature, and he doesn't like such a big thing as a war, and says, "Then many people will die......
Tianlan looked indifferent and said, "You mercenaries shouldn't hate war." "Mercenaries are a very important branch of the army in war, and war is naturally a contest between mercenaries between countries.
"It stands to reason that this is ......" Nangong Kui touched his head, completely unaware of being a mercenary.
Ye Yi said nonchalantly: "What are you talking about these uninteresting things? There is nothing to do between big countries and likes to fight and kill, and we can't control it." Don't worry about our business, don't worry about it!"
Xiaotang glanced at him and said, "You are also a member of the Green Dragon, why do you have no sense of national honor?"
Ye Yi grew up in a secluded and uninhabited valley since he was a child, and apart from an old man who was a little cynical and passed on his knowledge, he had almost no contact with other people, let alone the concept of a country. The sense of national honor is even more irrelevant, and he is not even sure whether he is a member of the Blue Dragon Empire.
The four of them rode horses and chatted while walking, although they came all the way, but they had an indescribable comfort, as if they were not in a hurry but in the mountains and rivers, attracting the attention of passers-by. They passed through the gates without hindrance, deposited their horses at the inn, freshened up, and then went together to wander around the famous Seoul.
"It's not bad here!You don't have to pay to enter and leave the city!" Ye Yi said with a smile.
Xiaotang said: "Going in and out of the city to pay money is something that only some small cities with little income can do, or sometimes the city guards will pit you if they don't like you." In Seoul, this kind of thing naturally does not happen, not only is the entry and exit free, but the city gate is not closed day and night, which is convenient for merchants. ”
"Brother Ye Yi, have you never been to Dacheng?" Nangong Kui couldn't help but ask when he saw that he seemed to be looking around very freshly.
"Who, who said that?" Ye Yi couldn't hold his face, grabbed his neck, and said, "Brother has been to a city with more salt than you have eaten, do you believe it or not?"
"Xinxin, hey, Brother Ye Yi, let me go first. Hearing this, Ye Yi viciously intimidated him before letting go.
Xiaotang was still thinking about Tianlan, and said: "Childe, since we have arrived in Seoul, why don't we inform the head of the family about you?" With the help of the family's strength, it is more convenient for us to find those few things!"
Ye Yi and Nangong Kui saw that the two of them were going to talk about business, so they stopped making trouble and listened carefully.
Tianlan refused: "No, I don't want to trouble my brother." And, Xiaotang, didn't we say when we left that we wouldn't use the power of the family?"
Xiaotang lowered her head a little unwillingly, and whispered: "But now the situation is different......" Although she was unwilling in her heart, she did not mean to rebel against Tianlan.
Nangong Kui stepped forward and said, "Since this is the case, how about using our strength?"
Xiaotang gave him a strange look and said, "You guys?"
Nangong Kui was looked at by her, shrank his head embarrassedly, and then said: "The golden lion has a fixed stronghold in the big city, I want to go and see, you can notify other mercenaries to help us pay attention to it, and you can also issue a bounty task and mobilize more people to help us find it!"
Ye Yi said: "This method is good! Nangong boy, I can't see that your brain is quite good!"
Nangong Kui smiled a little embarrassedly, he didn't have a good brain, but he just thought about Tianlan very seriously. This is also one of the reasons why they went straight to Seoul after leaving the Valley of Hundred Flowers.
"I'll leave this matter to me! I'll definitely get it done before sunset today!" Nangong Kui rarely took such a big package, and after finishing speaking, he hurriedly didn't know where to run.
The three of Tianlan continued to walk around the city when they had nothing to do, and after walking a short distance, they saw a small tea shop. They happened to be thirsty, so they wanted to go and sit down and buy a bowl of tea.
"Chick, how many do you sit with your brother?"
As soon as the three of them entered, they saw five tall men blocking a girl in the corner. Those five men looked strong and powerful, but in fact, their steps were unsteady, and they seemed to be just a few villains who had not cultivated at home. With the skills of Tianlan and a few of them, they can naturally despise these people, but ordinary people don't dare.
The girl who was blocked was very young and beautiful, about sixteen or seventeen, with a small figure, about the same height as Nangong Kui, wearing a pink short shirt, a pale pink short skirt, pure white stockings and a pair of red embroidered shoes, small and exquisite, extremely cute.
Her pretty face is fair and delicate, so beautiful that people can't bear to blaspheme, and a pair of charming dark pupils are full of moisture, and she looks pitiful. Her beautiful long pink hair was draped over her shoulders, fluttering as her shoulders trembled. She leaned her back against the wall, her eyes seemed to be confused and fearful, and she looked so weak and pitiful in the face of several big men who were far larger than her.
She wore pink fingerless gloves on her hands, covered her mouth and kept shaking, like a princess in distress.
"How come our brothers have never found out about such a beautiful girl?" said one of the big men with a malicious smile.
"Whatever, there are so many people who go in and out of the city every day, and it's not strange that there is a lost lamb once in a while!"
"Come, little sister, brother loves you so much!"
A few big men said that they were about to surround and move their hands and feet.
Tianlan glanced at it, but he didn't look interested, and was about to walk away, but he forgot that there was a nosy guy next to him!
"Stop!" Ye Yi jumped out and said, "What do you want to do to other people? Take your dirty hands away!"
