【Aslan Empire: Duoduo West City】

Although once one of the tribes of the human race, the people of Yaslan are different from the people of the Hongjun Empire in all aspects of life, the people of Aslan have retained the wildness of the primitive human race in many places, and the people of Aslan living in the desert are born with fierce battles, barbaric and rare combat skills, especially in alchemy, with primitive metallurgical technology, but retain the perfect skill of ancient alchemy. Although the alchemy machinery in this country is very developed, and the mechanical alchemy industry is very prosperous, they often use this advantage for war, so the living standards of the people here are not good.

This is one of the reasons why many ancient races are gradually dying out, and races that focus on war will not be able to live for long.

If you walk in any city of the Aslan Empire, you can see alchemy manufacturing shops everywhere, and most of the alchemy products are sold, the name alchemy comes from the skill of "smelting metal", alchemy was the first to use metal to create weapons and weapons, which is the most vulgar and primitive alchemy, and then added the transformation of later generations, it has become obviously different from before, and now the lowest level of alchemy is to create alchemy weapons, most of which are firearms, and high-level alchemy is to create mysterious magic weapons, that is, to inject magic weapons.

Dongfang Ziyan and Shangguan Yuanji put on the guards' uniforms by stacking arhats and blended into the city, but the confused city guards didn't notice that the returning guard looked so "deformed".

After entering the city, the two hid in a dark alley and took off their uniforms, at this time Shangguan Yuan sighed, "Fortunately, the dress in this country is not much different from ours, just bring a hat and sunglasses, so that you just cover your face." As he spoke, he took out a scarf and two pairs of sunglasses from his Jinbi Liantian bag.

"I was so scary by what the teacher said, I thought it would be so difficult to enter the territory of the empire, haha." Dongfang Ziyan put on his hat and said with a smile.

But Shangguan Yuanji still had a cold face: "Don't be complacent yet, because I estimate that we are about to be wanted." After saying that, he put on his round-framed little sunglasses and looked like a short businessman, "They will definitely track it down if they find out that there are two less guards on the border, and they didn't tell you that those two messenger jades have been glowing just now." ”

Dongfang Ziyan really couldn't laugh, and after a while, he said silently: "I'm a little hungry······"

"Did you just listen to me······ Shangguan Yuan supported his forehead and felt very speechless at Dongfang Ziyan.

It didn't take long for them to come to a restaurant, and after entering the door, they found a corner table to wait for the food to be served, and at the same time they were wary of the people around them, in this strange country, especially the enemy country, so swaggering out to eat, but fortunately, these two boys who are not afraid of death, how can others have such courage, this is the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.

Most of the people who come to this restaurant are alchemists, as well as anarchist wandering warlocks or wizards, who do not belong to any government or organization.

"These alchemists don't have anything to do with the government of Aslan, they all focus on money, but fortunately they took a lot of treasure when they escaped from their homes, and in my opinion, they can extract some things about the city lord's mansion from their mouths." Shangguan Yuanji silently took a sip of tea and whispered to Ziyan.

"What?! So you escaped! I thought you came with Uncle Shangguan's permission! Dongfang Ziyan took a sip of the tea in his mouth, and suddenly a gust of hot wind blew in from the door, rolling up a puff of dust on the ground, choking the two of them and coughing, "The weather here is too bad, it's really strange how people here can survive here." Dongfang Ziyan rubbed his eyes.

"It's not something to think about, now we have to find a place to transform the two communication jades just now." Yuan Ji said.

"Again, if we don't change the point of contact for the message, the contact person is still guarding them, so it's easy to find out our whereabouts through the senses of the spirit." Ziyan said.

Yuan Ji was a little surprised: "Ziyan, it sounds like you know a lot about machinery!" ”

At this moment, the waiter brought all the dishes ordered, Ziyan's nose moved, his eyes stared at the food on the table and said, "I understand a little bit, I learned it from books." After speaking, without waiting for Yuan Ji to see it clearly, he stuffed his mouth with pot meat, and said vaguely: "Although the soft Hu family did not teach Gu E, let's think about the preparation and call Gu Hu, and call Gu very blocked." (Although my father didn't teach me, I read books myself, and I read a lot of books.) ）”

Shangguan Yuan slammed the table and said, "You swallow it for me and then speak!" He slapped the jade in his hand on the table, but the two didn't notice that there were already people around them who were attracted to them.

"Who are those two guys, so short, and the word jade?" A bald man with a tiger's back muttered, putting down the wine bowl in his hand, and the ghost-headed knife behind his back rattled in the scabbard.

"At first glance, I know that it is a child dressed in disguise, and I don't know which noble young master came out to play." A thin old man with a turban next to him said, knocking the cigarette pouch on the edge of the stool and knocking the cigarette ash, "Those two beads are high-grade goods, they are high-end goods that can transmit images, and they can be sold for four hundred gold spirit coins!" ”

Dongfang Ziyan and Shangguan Yuanji's eyes immediately changed, Yuan Ji pretended not to hear, put away the communication jade, Ziyan buttoned his hat down, and put his hands under the table unnaturally. "Don't be quiet, look at my color, Ziyan." Yuan Ji said to Ziyan with his lips, and Ziyan nodded lightly.

The man with the ghost head knife touched his bald head, the scar on the top of his head was particularly eye-catching, he stood up with a drop in the wine bowl, and strode towards Yuan Ji like a meteor, and the old man who smoked a cigarette pouch frowned. The bald head walked up to Yuan Ji, patted his big hand on his shoulder, and said, "Hey! Little ghost, Lao Tzu paid three gold coins to buy your two rumor jades, why don't you do it! "It's so loud that you can hear it all over the restaurant.

Yuan Ji's face was expressionless, and Ziyan on the opposite side lowered his head and darkened his face.

The customers present were all coaxing on the sidelines, and the shopkeeper and the guys in the store were leaning against the counter and watching the excitement. The bald man grinned, revealing a neat row of teeth, "Sell or not!" How much sugar can you buy for three gold spirit coins! Yes? Hahaha! ”

"Hey, hey! Ghost head! Don't bully children! An alchemist drank the wine from his glass, his face flushed, and he looked completely bustling.

Shangguan Yuanji was still silent, but instead picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, took out a few gold spirit coins and put them on the table, and slowly said to Ziyan: "Have you finished eating?" Father is in a hurry to find us, let's go. Dongfang Ziyan nodded and stood up.

"Bastard! When Lao Tzu is air! The bald head shouted, and he was about to draw his sword. Hell, don't make trouble here! The old man who smoked the cigarette pouch shouted.

"Humph!" The bald head put the knife away, and the sound of coaxing stopped abruptly.

Shangguan Yuanji and Dongfang Ziyan walked towards the door, Yuan Ji didn't say a word facing forward, Ziyan nodded at the old man as a thanks, but the old man didn't say anything.

Out of the restaurant, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief. "I didn't expect to run into trouble as soon as I settled down." Dongfang Ziyan let out a long breath, "Fortunately, there is that old man to help." ”

"You think too simply, Ziyan, you remember it for me, no stranger outside can believe it, this is the principle of survival, I have encountered a lot of this kind of thing before, but this is the first time it has been resolved peacefully." Shangguan Yuan sighed. "After all, it's in an enemy country, so you can't cause trouble."

"It's better for you to make fewer shots in the future, and you still say that I, your bad problem of 'not running away once you fight' should be changed quickly." Dongfang Ziyan said.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm your big brother!"

"You're as old as me, and you were born just a few hours before me!"

Shangguan Yuanji sighed, "Don't talk nonsense, let's complete the task given to us by the teacher first!" Until then, you'll have to tell me if you're really mechanical. ”

"Yes, I can transform this simple machining in a few minutes!" Dongfang Ziyan filled his mouth with a piece of jerky, which he grabbed from the table.

"This is probably a relatively advanced skill in 'mechanical engineering'! Did you master it just by reading a book? Don't talk big, Ziyan! Yuan Ji was startled at first, and then said with a smile, "Although I admit that the men in your family are very talented, the technical work of alchemy machinery is not what you are good at. ”

Ziyan smiled, "How could I lie to you!" I'll see it later! Ziyan gave a thumbs up. Inadvertently, he noticed that the street was getting a little noisy, and then after a while, he heard someone commotion.

"Attention everyone! Two children attacked the border guards and infiltrated the city, please cooperate with the guards in the search!! Someone on the other end of the crowd shouted over a loudspeaker, "We suspect enemy spies have infiltrated!" Vigilance vigilance!! Now Launched Most Wanted in the City!! ”

An ominous wind hung up, and Yuan Ji secretly scolded: "Damn, it came so quickly, it seems that it was wrong that we didn't kill those two guards when we were at the border, Ziyan, your kindness has caused us trouble!" Let's go! After saying that, he and Ziyan hurriedly turned into an alley, and then there was a sound of footsteps and the sound of pulling the bolt.

"Guards! I just got into the alley with two children in shape! A citizen pointed to the alley where the two had fled.

"That's it! Fast! Pursue! ”

Ziyan and Yuan Ji ran left and right in the alley, and finally stopped at the end of an alley, "It's a dead end!" This wall is about 10 meters high! Even you can't climb it! Ziyan slammed his fist against the wall. Alright, let's kill it! Shangguan Yuanji took out the fire sword kept by Bang Ziyan and handed it to him, and said slowly, not flustered at all.

Ziyan pulled out his sword, looking at the crimson blade, he heard footsteps getting closer and closer, "It's so exciting, it's exciting to think about." He leaned against the solid concrete wall and looked out with half of his head exposed, "So many people! The alleys are going to be packed! ”

"And they're all equipped with those alchemy guns." Shangguan Yuanji said in a cold sweat, and swung his wind cutting sword twice, "But we should be optimistic, at least it is much easier to deal with than the last time we were chased and killed by the Silver Wing Black Striped Tiger!" There is still a chance to resist this time. ”

"I really admire your optimism, in short, it's all death, it's just the difference between time and time!" Dongfang Ziyan smiled, and Yuan Ji, who rarely smiled, also smiled bitterly.

Suddenly, someone called from the other side of the high wall not far from the two: "Boys! If you want to live! Just climb up!! ”

Ziyan and Yuan Ji's eyes widened in disbelief as a rope made of iron wire came down from the other end of the wall. As the footsteps of the pursuers got closer and closer, Ziyan and Yuan Ji looked at each other and hesitated.

"If you don't come again, I'm leaving, old man!" The man spoke again.

"Here we go!" Yuan Ji and Ziyan spoke in unison.

After a while, the guards rushed to the end of the dead end with guns, and they were dumbfounded when they saw that there was no one inside, and the guard chief and his subordinates stared at each other: "Didn't you say that two enemies ran in!" ”

"I saw it, sir!"

The guard grew up and cursed a few times, "Let's go search somewhere else!" ”

On the other side of the wall, Ziyan and Yuan Ji were lying on the wall, and they were relieved to hear that the guards had withdrawn. Ziyan turned around, held his hat, looked up and said with a smile: "Thank you, you ······" Dongfang Ziyan and Shangguan Yuanji looked at the person who saved them and were immediately stunned.

The man held a cigarette pouch in his mouth, exhaled a long puff of green smoke, and smiled slightly. It turned out to be the old man I met in the restaurant.

"Why are you... Help us every time? Shangguan Yuanji clenched the sword in his hand vigilantly, and he frowned: "No, I should ask you, why are you here?" Are you here to stop us? Are you an enemy or a ······"
