The Wind Rises 183 Stormy City

There were a lot of soldiers at the gate of the city, more than three hundred, and everyone who wanted to enter the city, whether it was a wealthy merchant or a tall mercenary, was stopped by the soldiers and interrogated before being allowed to go.

And on the city wall, there are also groups of elite soldiers in armor, and their eyes sweep downward.

"What's going on, why is it so troublesome to go into the city now, I remember it wasn't like this before..."

"It should be something big happened, I only came from Wanjia City yesterday, and there are a lot of guards there, and the soldiers of the entire city have taken action, as if they are searching for someone, and the city is full of storms..."

"You don't know this, my second uncle is the captain of the city defense army of a nearby city, I heard him say that the spies of the Jason Kingdom broke into the territory of our Hun Kingdom, not only killed more than 300 of the most elite remnant blood guards of our Hun Kingdom, but also robbed a large number of demon cores and fled, and now our King His Majesty is furious, and has ordered to hunt down and kill this spy, even if it is to find the entire kingdom again..."

Many people at the city gate were talking about it, discussing this matter with relish.

And Chen Ning, who heard the conversation of these people, involuntarily showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, judging from the current situation, Chen Ning was already sure that the loss of this batch of demon cores was definitely a big loss for the Hun Kingdom.

After waiting in line for a long time, as the people in front of them entered the city one by one, it was finally Chen Ning's turn.

"Stop, what are you doing!"

As soon as it was Chen Ning and Che Guevara's turn to check, several soldiers immediately stopped the two of them and asked loudly.

Chen Ning smiled slightly and said, "This big brother, both of us are mercenaries, and of course we went to the city to stay and replenish some necessary items. ”

As he spoke, Chen Ning took out his mercenary badge and shook it in front of the eyes of these mercenaries.

The soldier pretended to take the mercenary badge in Chen Ning's hand and looked at it, then glanced up and down at Chen Ning and Che Guevara's figure, and said, "Look at the young appearance of you two, you are definitely not masters, you go to the city." ”

Chen Ning and the two walked all the way into the city gate unhindered, and then Chen Ning found that the streets and alleys inside the city gate were full of portraits.

However, what makes Chen Ning feel funny is that these portraits only depict a person's figure, but they do not depict physiognomy at all, just like a human model, not even a model.

"How can we find a spy in such a portrait, we don't even know what the spy looks like, the figure on this portrait is not 10,000 in our city alone, but 8,000..."

"I really don't know how Wang Cheng did it, he actually painted such a portrait, he doesn't even have a look, even if that spy is standing next to us now, we can't recognize it. ”

There were still many people standing around the portrait watching, but all of them were full of complaints, and seemed extremely speechless about the person in the portrait.

"Hehe, His Majesty of the Xiongnu Kingdom is really a genius, just wanting to find a spy with such a portrait, this is simply a fool's dream, a person with such a figure, not to mention the Xuantian Continent, there are countless in the Xiongnu Kingdom alone, everywhere, is it possible to catch them all?"

Looking at this portrait with no facial features, Chen Ning couldn't help but smile happily.

"Hmph, this isn't a genius, it's just a. Standing next to the thief, Guevara also said with disdain.

Shaking his head amusedly, Chen Ning and Che Guevara left here, walked towards the city, and then inquired and came to a place that specializes in selling demon beast mounts.

The demon beast mount trading market is relatively deserted, and in a huge grass shed, there are only more than thirty demon beasts of all kinds, lying quietly in it.

Although the demon beast mounts sold in the trading market are all very docile monsters, they almost have no attack ability, but the price is also extremely expensive, and it is not something that ordinary mercenaries can afford, so there are not many people in this monster market.

In the Demon Beast Mount Trading Market, Chen Ning spent two thousand Xuan Shi to buy two second-order demon beasts that were good at running, and then rested in this city for a night, and the next morning he made peace with Guevara and left here.

Now it is only half a year before the trial road conference held by the World Chamber of Commerce, and during this time, Chen Ning and the two must keep hurrying, because it is too far away from Penglai Island, and they need to pass through seven or eight kingdoms, and the journey is very far.

Chen Ning, Thief, and Guevara rode second-order demon beasts, galloping on the road at a speed of thousands of miles a day, and the dust had formed a rolling dragon behind them, causing many caravan mercenaries who were also walking on the road to curse.

However, when they saw that the two of them were riding second-order demon beasts, apart from cursing, no one came up to trouble them.

Five days later, Chen Ning and the others had already left the territory of the Xiongnu Kingdom and ran along a straight line on the plain.

The two of them were on the road with all their might during the day, and they set up tents everywhere at night to cultivate, so in the past half a month, they had crossed the border of the two kingdoms and trekked tens of thousands of kilometers.

On a plain, Chen Ning, Thief, and Guevara stopped on the side of the road to rest, and Chen Ning watched with a map in his hand to compare their current location.

"Vala, according to the marks on the map, there is a first-class city fifty kilometers ahead, let's go and rest first, and by the way, see if there are any better monster mounts for sale." ”

Chen Ning stared at the map and said without raising his head.

Stealing, Guevara unscrewed the lid of the kettle and poured a few mouthfuls of water, waving his hand and said, "Whatever you want, it's not my great stealing anyway, Guevara's money, there are good monster mounts, I naturally have no objection." ”

Hearing this, Chen Ning raised his head slightly, and looked speechlessly at the thief who was holding a kettle and pouring it, Guevara, for this guy, Chen Ning was extremely speechless, for half a month, this guy was a dime, no matter what happened, he pretended to be dead every time he had to pay, so that Chen Ning couldn't help but wonder if it was a wrong decision to recruit him to join the Black Panther Mercenary Group.

Subsequently, Chen Ning and Thief, Guevara rode a second-order demon beast mount and entered this first-class city called "Lingfeng City".

As a first-class city, Lingfeng City covers a very large area, and it is even more prosperous inside, and the main road is very wide, which can accommodate nearly ten carriages side by side at the same time.

On both sides of the street are some shops and restaurants selling their own items, and the mercenary monks and monks who come and go on the street are endless, and the people are full of people.

Lingfeng City is very well governed, both sides of the street are very clean, there is no debris and garbage thrown at will, and the roads are all full of passers-by, not like Peach Willow City, the streets are full of mercenary stalls.

From this alone, you can see the gap between the first-level city and the third-level city.

Suddenly, a jumble of hooves came from behind.

Hearing the sound, Chen Ning looked back, only to see a large group of brightly dressed people supporting an extremely luxuriously decorated carriage galloping from behind, and all the people pulling the carriage were second-order demon beasts, and there was a yellow flag on the carriage that was raised high and fluttering in the wind, and the flag was greatly printed with the word "Sun".

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way of all the people in front of you. ”

The people at the front of the convoy shouted loudly, yelling at the people around them to get out of the way.

"That turned out to be someone from the Gongsun family, it seems that they have something urgent, get out of the way, we can't afford to offend the Gongsun family. ”

"I'll rub it, the people of the Gongsun family, get out of the way, don't block their way, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat. ”

Seeing the speeding convoy, some mercenaries and caravans walking on the street hurriedly controlled their respective carriages and leaned towards both sides of the street, leaving a large open space for the Gongsun family's men and horses to pass.

A large number of carriages full of goods were instantly crowded together, making a commotion sound, making the originally wide street quickly crowded with this group of mercenaries and caravans, and it seemed a little crowded.

Chen Ning, Thief, and Guevara also controlled the mounts under their crotches and moved closer to both sides of the street, but because the carriages were already crowded on both sides of the street at the moment, and the position of the two of them happened to be the place with the most goods, so they were in the outermost part for a while, and the half-cut body of the demon beast under the crotch just blocked the team of centaurs.

"Hurry up, get out of the way, tell you to get out of the way, didn't you hear, you can't find death!"

The man running at the front stared at Chen Ning and the two with fierce eyes, and then shook his hand fiercely, and a long whip in his hand turned into a black light and stole towards the outermost outermost thief, and Guevara pulled it away.

Chen Ning's eyes suddenly became fierce, this person from the Gongsun family was inevitably too arrogant, and just when he was about to make a move, Che Guevara had already taken the first step.

Seeing the theft, Guevara's eyes showed a hint of fierceness, and he directly grabbed the long whip he drew with his bare hands, and then pulled it back hard, directly tearing off the person who was riding on the back of the demon beast, and fell to the ground and rolled several times in succession.

"Stop!"

With a loud shout, the entire convoy of the Gongsun family stopped suddenly, and the movements were completely consistent, without the slightest mess, as if they were a team of well-trained cavalry.

"Bold, who is the junior who dares to block the path of the second miss of my Gongsun family, come on, take him down for me!"

At the front of the convoy, a middle-aged man stared at Che Guevara with fierce eyes, and shouted loudly.

"Yes!" several people immediately volunteered and rushed towards Che Guevara.

Che Guevara's face was gloomy, his eyes glanced at Chen Ning, and when he saw Chen Ning clasping his hands on his chest and looking at him with a smile, he couldn't help but snort coldly, rolled his eyes, and rushed straight up.

Stealing, Guevara flew and jumped off the mount, and suddenly emitted a faint blue-red light around his body, and there was a trace of thunder flashing, fighting with a few people who rushed over, several of them did not use weapons, all of them were fists and feet, and you came and went to fight with a bang.

Chen Ning's gaze fell on Che Guevara, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

But soon, a happy smile appeared on Chen Ning's face, and he muttered, "I didn't expect that, this steal, Guevara is not only talented in cultivation, but the exercises he cultivates are actually thunder-based exercises. ”

Stealing, Guevara's every punch was tinged with a hint of blue-red thunder, and the speed was also extremely fast, and after only a few fights with several people whose strength was not much different from him, he knocked them all to the ground.

"You dare to hurt the guards of my Gongsun family, you are looking for death!"

This scene made a group of people in the Gongsun family suddenly unable to hold their faces, and they all showed anger, when even a middle-aged man jumped up from his mount, and a machete in his hand slashed through the sky with the power of Peng Bai's Xuan Qi, and slashed towards the thief, Guevara.

Chen Ning snorted coldly, and the Purple Frost Sword appeared in his hand in an instant, and then his body flew down from his mount like a cannonball, facing the machete in the middle-aged man's hand.

"Ding!"

In mid-air, the Purple Frost Sword and the machete collided together, making a crisp sound, and then before the middle-aged man could react, the Purple Frost Sword turned into a purple light at an extremely fast speed and swept in front of his throat.

Chen Ning and the middle-aged man both fell to the ground at the same time, but the middle-aged man's face had become very ugly at the moment, and his eyes looking at Chen Ning were full of horror and shock.

Chen Ning put away his sword and snorted, looked at the middle-aged man and snorted coldly, and said, "Your Gongsun family is too rampant, my brother is just hurting a few of your guards, you actually killed my brother, didn't I exist?"

Chen Ning's tone was extremely cold, the Gongsun family dared to be so arrogant in a first-class city like Lingfeng City, it must be a very big force, although he was new to it, but Chen Ning really didn't take them seriously, if he didn't stay here for a few days, Chen Ning would definitely kill him with a sword.

The middle-aged man looked at Chen Ning in shock and fear, his face was faintly pale, and he stood there dumbfounded for a while, unable to speak.

"What's going on!"

Suddenly, a crisp and pleasant voice came, the voice was very soft, extremely beautiful, like a lark.
