Chapter 9: Xue Du Dayi

Three days later, on the official road leading to the capital of Xue Guoguo, an ox cart came, and the ox cart carried two cages, on which sat a young man in his early twenties and dressed in coarse cloth, and in front of the young man was another young man who was also only in his twenties.

At sunset, a tall and majestic city appeared at the end of the official road, and under the reflection of the setting sun, it seemed to emit bursts of golden light, which was gorgeous and dazzling.

"Childe, in front of you is Dayi, the capital of Xue Kingdom!" The young man who was driving the car turned back and said to the young man in coarse cloth clothes on the car.

"Dayi?" The coarse-clothed young man frowned slightly and said.

"Yes, Gongzi, the capital of Xue Guodu occupies a huge area, which is the largest in the world, so it is called 'big', the world calls it Dayi, and the Xue people call themselves Dadu, which is actually the first prosperous and rich capital in the world." As he spoke, the young man paused slightly, then lowered his voice and said, "Childe, why don't we take a detour?" ”

"Since it is the most prosperous and prosperous capital in the world, how can we miss it?" The rough boy grinned, and said loudly: "Midnight, enter the city!" ”

"But Childe ......" Midnight still said with some worry, and before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the rough-clothed boy again, "Midnight, you remember, my name is Mo Ren now, you can call me Mr. Mo, or sir, but you must not call Childe, remember?" But don't say it's a leak! ”

"Yes, Childe......" Midnight replied casually, and was glared at by the rough-clothed boy, so he changed his words and said, "Sir." ”

"Okay, let's go into the city, let's be like this now, even if we meet acquaintances, we don't necessarily know each other, let alone Xue Ren, who has never met, don't worry, it's okay." As he spoke, the rough-clothed man also reached out and patted Midnight's shoulder.

"But Childe...... Sir, aren't we going to Zheng Guo Gaoyang? We finally jumped out of the layers of blockade of the Xue army, and if we didn't hurry up and rush to Gaoyang, why did we drive this old ox cart and fight slowly on the official road of Xue Guo? Midnight whispered in a puzzled voice.

The rough man chuckled and patted Midnight's shoulder, and said: "Midnight, there is a saying that Mr. Good is not busy, and there is also a saying that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, for us, the most difficult thing is to break through Xue Jun's layers of blockades, since we have jumped out of Xue Jun's blockade now, the rest can just jump by the fish, and the sky is high and the birds fly?" ”

"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry...... The sea is wide and the fish jumps ...... The sky is high and the birds are flying ......, Mr. Childe, why are you more and more incomprehensible in the middle of the night? What is tofu? ”

"Hehe, if you don't understand, as for what tofu is, na, come over with your ear, I'll tell you." The rough man smiled and beckoned to Midnight.

Midnight leaned his head over, but heard the rough man whisper: "It is the softest and most elastic place on a woman's body." ”

"Huh?" Midnight's eyes widened in surprise.

"Ahh The rough-clothed boy glared at Midnight and urged loudly.

"Whoa!" Midnight hurriedly responded loudly, drove the ox cart, followed the official road, and rushed to Dayi, the capital of Xue Guoguo.

Half an hour later, midnight had already driven the ox cart to a small city gate cave on the left side of the Xicheng of Xuedu Dayi. Dayi West City Wall, in addition to a three or four zhang high main gate, the left and right sides also have two small city gates more than two zhang high, usually, the main gate will not open, pedestrians and merchants are from the left and right sides of the small city gate in and out.

In the middle of the night, before the ox cart arrived at the gate of the small city, there was still a distance of seven or eight zhang away, and a Xue army guard wearing armor held the long sword on his waist, and took the other two armor soldiers, holding on to the long halberd, and walked over to them in the middle of the night, and there was still a short distance away, so he stretched out his hand and shouted: "Stop!" ”

Seeing this, Midnight hurriedly grabbed the reins of the ox cart, jumped off the ox cart with some trepidation, and said with a smiling face: "Master Jun." ”

"Where are you from, do you have a customs clearance document? Don't you know that our King Xue is forbidden to enter the countryside with ox carts? Xue Jun said with an arrogant expression. While speaking, the two halberd armorers walked to the side of the ox cart, drove Mr. Mo off the ox cart, opened the two cages on the ox cart, and checked them.

Midnight froze slightly, and then said with a smiling face: "Forgive me, forgive me, forgive me, we are a traveling merchant from Ju country, the first time we come to your country, I don't know the rules, offended, please forgive me." As he spoke, Midnight took out a forged customs clearance document and handed it to Xue Jun's guards.

"From the Southern Barbarian Ju Kingdom? No wonder it's so incomprehensible. The guard Xue Jun glanced at Mr. Mo on the ox cart lightly, said contemptuously, looked at the customs clearance papers, and then threw them casually, threw the customs clearance documents to Midnight, and said: "People can enter the city, but this ox cart can't enter!" ”

"Master Jun, you are good, we will travel in such an ox cart, if we leave the ox cart, how can we carry such a thing?" Midnight said with a look of embarrassment on his face.

"This is easy to do, see that no, there is the storefront of our largest pawn shop in the Xue Kingdom, 'Tianyidang', you can go and use your ox cart as a pawn, exchange it for some silver, and then change it into a carriage, and then you can enter the city." Guarding Xue Jun pointed to a three-bay shop built against the city wall on the left side of the city gate and said to Midnight.

"Heaven too?" Midnight froze slightly, and turned his head to look in the direction of Xue Jun's guard's finger.

"But no, the sky can be done, what else in the world can't be done? You ox cart, be the best of his place! ”

"But ......" Midnight still wanted to say something, but the guard of the Xue army was already impatient, and urged: "Hugh should be quiet again, long-winded, don't be a fool again, you ox cart, we will confiscate it in accordance with the king's law!" ”

Midnight listened, his eyes widened angrily, and he clenched his hands tightly, eager to punch the head of the Xue army guard in front of him. Just as he wanted to make a move, Mr. Mo behind him reached out and gently pulled him, and said in a low voice: "Midnight, go and pawn the ox cart quickly, let's go into the city quickly." ”

"But Mr. ......" Midnight wanted to say something more, but Mr. Mo gestured slightly and said, "Go quickly!" After a slight pause, he said, "I see that there is still a carriage over there, and after you pawn it, you will hire a carriage to come over." ”

"Yes, sir." Midnight had no choice but to bow down and answer, glanced at the Xue Jun guard fiercely with the corner of his eye, drove the ox cart, and walked towards the 'Tian Yidang' next to the city gate.

After a long while, midnight drove another carriage, with a look of resentment on his face, he walked over, walked to Mr. Mo's side, and was about to speak, but Mr. Mo had already preemptively said, "Midnight, follow me into the city." As he spoke, he turned to the Xue Jun guards and said, "Master Jun, do you think we can enter the city?" ”

The guard Xue Jun glanced at Midnight arrogantly, and then said proudly: "No, the things in your cage, we haven't checked it clearly just now, and we have to check it again." ”

"It's just some ordinary goods in that cage, and there are no prohibited things, so why bother to check it?" Mr. Mo chuckled and said, pausing slightly, and then said to Midnight: "Midnight, take fifty dollars and invite the military master to drink." ”

Midnight's eyes widened dissatisfiedly, but Mr. Mo smiled and gestured with his eyes, Midnight had to endure his anger, took out fifty Xue Guo knife coins, and stuffed them into the hands of the Xue army guards.

Guarding Xue Jun weighed the knife coin in his hand, then waved his hand and said loudly: "Release!" ”

"Thank you, Master Jun." Mr. Mo smiled and arched his hand slightly towards the guards, and walked towards the city of Xue Du Dayi, leading the carriage angrily in the middle of the night, following closely behind Mr. Mo, and after entering the city gate, he said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you want to practice yourself like this? ”

Mr. Mo chuckled and said, "Why did you say this in the middle of the night? The big husband can bend and stretch, and he can't stand this grievance, so how can he do big things? ”

"Sir, I'm sorry for you!"

"There's nothing flat or uneven about this, let's go, it's important to get down to business!" Mr. Mo said with a chuckle.

"Oh." Midnight answered, followed closely, and asked in a low voice, "Sir, where are we going now?" ”

"Dayi's largest liquor store!"

……

Xue Du Dayi, worthy of being called Dayi, the whole capital is divided into twenty-nine square districts of almost exactly equal size by four horizontal and five vertical streets, and each square area is the size of five or six football fields, and the streets are lined with shops and wine shops, and tourists and merchants are side by side, endlessly, giving Mr. Mo, that is, Yihua's first impression, as if traveling in the ancient city tourist area in later generations.

Four horizontal and five vertical should have been thirty areas, but the middle two pieces were directly merged together, becoming the Xue King's Palace, tall and majestic, the brilliant Xue King's Palace, is located in the middle of the central axis of Dayi's east-west direction, and it is also the tallest and most majestic place in the entire Dayi City, travelers and pedestrians who come and go to Dayi, no matter which gate of Dayi enters, the first thing to see must be Dayi Palace!

"Childe, that is the palace of King Xue, ninety-six zhang long, forty-eight zhang wide, and twenty-two zhang high, which is the most royal palace in the world. Compared with the palace of the Son of Heaven, it is also much higher. Midnight whispered to Mr. Mo on the side.

Mr. Mo nodded slightly, but glanced at the tall and majestic Xue King Palace in the distance, and then turned his head away, as if he didn't care about the Xue King Palace.

Seeing this, Midnight couldn't help but pinch slightly, followed Mr. Mo for a short while, and finally couldn't help but take a step forward and asked in a low voice, "Mr. is not surprised at all?" ”

"What's so surprising about that? He is strong and prosperous in the future, and Zhao himself will build a palace that is even more majestic than this, so why is it difficult? Mr. Mo said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, he couldn't help but pause slightly, and then he took a step forward, clasped his fists and whispered: "The last general swears to follow Gongzi to the death, for the strength of Zhao Guo, go to the soup and fight the fire, and never give up!" ”

Mr. Mo didn't say a word, just reached out and patted Midnight's shoulder, and nodded at him slightly.
