Chapter 406: The Outer City of the Dragon Capital
After Han Wuxi heard this, his eyes darkened, and he almost fainted again, crying: "How did I know that I would provoke the ghost general, adults don't care about Lilliputia, you just treat me as a fart, let me go." ”
Wang Yijin laughed: "I don't know what bear heart leopard gall you have eaten, you dare to rob the woman that the ghost general fancies?" ”
"Huh?" Han Wuxi was even more depressed, "The ghost general has taken a fancy to Meng Ran'er?" This...... Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations, the fortune teller said that Meng Ran'er will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future, and he will have many children and grandchildren. My fifth brother thought that whoever married her would be able to enjoy this glory and wealth, but he never thought that it was her own creation, and she would enjoy this glory and wealth only when she married a ghost general. We are damned, damned, lard blindfolded. ”
Wang Yijin said: "Ronghua and Fugui don't care, our general really likes this girl, and he fell in love with her after just one glance yesterday." Why are you Han family so domineering, you actually want to snatch women with our general, it's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, the mantis arm is a car! ”
"Don't dare! Don't dare anymore! Han Wuxi hurriedly said, "When I go back, I must warn my fifth brother to stop crooked thoughts, so as not to die on the street." ”
Wang Yijin said: "Then do you still want to treat Mr. Meng harshly?" ”
"How dare we." Han Wuxi cried with a sad face, "The ghost general's father-in-law's family, who dares to make a mistake, alas, ......"
Wang Yijin touched his nose and smiled with satisfaction, then took out a short knife, which scared Han Wuxi and peed his pants. Wang Yijin comforted: "Close your eyes, it doesn't hurt, it'll be fine in a while." Suddenly, Han Wuxi pulled his pants in fright. Wang Yijin got up disdainfully, stayed away from him, and said, "I was going to shave your eyebrows as a souvenir, look at your cowardice, soldier, you shave his hair." ”
"Whoa! My lord. ”
That Han Wuxi was pressed on the car by the soldiers and shaved his head with a short knife, but the knife skills of the guards were obviously not good, and Han Wuxi's head was cut like a dog gnawed. Han Wuxian didn't dare to resist, or even protest, so he could only endure it honestly and obediently, and finally everyone teased him and let him go. Han Wuxi hurriedly jumped into the river, washed his body and pants, and fled back in a hurry.
When the Han family heard the identity of their rival, they suddenly didn't even dare to take revenge, and honestly continued to be the local overlord of Chechi County.
And Meng Shi listened to the conversation between Wang Yijin and Han Wuxi, and did not regard this as a white lie to protect them, but found his sister and said while others were not paying attention: "Ran'er, I think you should marry the ghost general." ”
Meng Ran'er was taken aback and said angrily: "Brother, what are you talking nonsense." ”
Meng Shi said: "You are a princess, your mission is to marry the border general, if you marry the ghost general, you should fulfill your father's wish." And marry the ghost general, you will definitely want to be glorious and rich in the future, and you will no longer encounter the kind of ruffians like the Han family. ”
Meng Ran'er lowered her head: "Brother, I'm not a princess." ”
Meng Shi said: "You are the princess!" You remember, you will always be a princess! Someday, I'll restore you to the princess! The two of them depend on each other, and Meng Shi regards his sister as more important than anyone else.
Meng Ran'er said worriedly: "Brother, you can't go to extremes, you can't think about the throne anymore, once you expose yourself, it will affect many people." ”
Meng Shi said: "You should rest assured, your brother and I have seen a lot of intrigues and tricks since we were children, so we will naturally be cautious." It's just that I want to ask you, what is your impression of the ghost general? ”
Meng Ran'er said in an inaudible voice: "I don't have any impression. ”
"Do you hate him?"
"No, it's not annoying."
"That'll do." Meng Shi patted his thigh and said with a smile: "My parents don't exist, and my eldest brother is my father, so I'll be in charge and marry you to her." ”
Meng Ran'er said: "You just love to mess around." ”
Meng Shi smiled slightly: "I don't like to mess around, sister, I'm doing this for the good of the future of the two of us." The biggest treasure left to us by our father is to be able to get acquainted with the ghost general Zhang Xiaowu, we must understand our father's painstaking efforts, otherwise when we see our father under Jiuquan in the future, his old man will say, two stupid children, why live up to Lone's heart? ”
Meng Ran'er laughed, but she didn't believe his words, her feelings for Zhang Xiaowu were half out of curiosity, half out of fear, and she didn't have the slightest intention of liking. It's just that seeing her brother ask for this, Meng Ran'er had to accept his suggestion, but she knew that this matter was extremely difficult.
"It's difficult, it's not impossible, it's up to people." Meng Shi smiled, "When we are in the capital, we have more contact with him, as long as we have more contact, he will naturally take a fancy to you." Isn't there a lack of a little girl by his side who pours tea and water? If you are more diligent, you can repay him for saving us from the clutches of the Han family. ”
"Hmm." Meng Ran'er nodded heavily.
The soldiers of the ghost guard don't know the true identity of Meng Shi and Meng Ran'er, Zhang Xiaowu naturally won't make it public, Meng Shi wants to hear how the ghost guard evaluates the prince, but unfortunately everyone is not interested in the prince, everyone's topic is the difference between the Central Plains and Saibei. After living in my hometown for two days, we even felt a little uncomfortable with the humid climate, and some people even got rashes because of the humid environment.
Zhang Xiaowu and the others also hit the road again, and this time, they went directly to Longdu City.
Longdu City, the capital of the world, the largest city in the world, consists of the imperial city, the inner city of 36 squares and the outer city of 72 squares, in addition to the outer city, there are some scattered villages and towns. Zhang Xiaowu didn't know how big a fang was, but when he arrived in Longdu City, he understood what a fang was, because a fang is a city. A square in Longdu City, which was half the size of a wooden city, directly shocked all the people who came to Longdu for the first time.
The outer city of Longdu City only has a one-zhang high wall, which does not play any defensive role at all, and Ruan Thanh Van explained that the city wall is not guarded by people, but by wild beasts. Longdu City is close to Mishan, which is rich in jackals, tigers and leopards, and in the past, animals often went down the mountain to eat people, so this very low outer city wall was built. It's just that there are not many soldiers guarding the outer city wall, and they have designed twenty-eight watchtowers on the outer city wall, and only two soldiers observe on weekdays, and the rest of the soldiers rest in the watchtowers.
Zhang Xiaowu looked at it from a distance, and the distance between the two watchtowers was two miles away, and he suddenly smiled: "This is really a watchtower, and it can't play any defensive role at all." ”
Ruan Qingwen said with a smile: "The general of the outer city is the most leisurely, and even everyone doesn't know who is the general of the outer city, but the general of the inner city has a great responsibility, and the general of the inner city is also known as the general of the town of Longdu, and the current general of the town is the righteous son of Du Shanbo, the flying arrow tiger Ding Deman." ”
Zhang Xiaowu said: "I don't know if his archery skills are great, or my archery skills are stronger." ”
Ruan Qingwen smiled dumbly: "The reason why the Flying Arrow Tiger comes from is not that he is good at archery, but that he does things like arrows flying out, and he often moves forward neatly." ”
Zhang Xiaowu burst out laughing.
