Chapter 896: Astrology City
When Lu Sheng saw Ji Lin's expression, he immediately understood that he knew. But in an instant, Ji Lin said with a normal face, "Father, instead of us speculating here, it is better to let Lu Sheng investigate."
Don't you know Lu Sheng's ability? It won't take a few days, as long as he lets him go and investigate, he will soon find out. ”
"Ahh......h Also, we can only try to add to the troubles by guessing. Lu Qing, I'm going to work hard for you......" Ji Zheng was a little sluggish, but quickly reacted and said.
"The minister obeys the order, the emperor, the minister intends to activate the first-level security of the Xuantian Mansion in Jingzhou, and asks the emperor for permission. ”
"You are the prince of Xuantian Mansion, I have absolute trust in you, you can do what you say. ”
Lu Sheng and Ji Lin glanced at each other, and Lu Sheng left tacitly.
Lu Sheng didn't say the name of the astrology city, and Ji Lin didn't let him say the name of the astrology city. Because the name is too special. Once he said it, he was afraid that he would lose his mind immediately.
Astrology City is an independent city like White Horse City back then. The lord of the city is the master of the city. Independence can have its own laws, its own army, and its own political system, but few are really independent cities.
And the reason why the astrological city really makes Ji Lin can't say it is another, the astrological city is the maiden home of the current queen's mother. The queen was the princess of the Astrology City before marrying Ji Zheng.
If you point out the astrological city, this is undoubtedly the biggest scandal of the royal family. It is the current mother of the country who is plotting against the queen, is the sun and the moon competing for glory? No, it is the moon that will burn with the sun and jade.
The disappearance of 200,000 sets of armor is not the point, the point is that there are 200,000 soldiers for more than 200,000 sets of armor, and what is the use of having empty armor without soldiers? Even if we want to raise troops to rebel, the soldiers are what really matter.
It is not difficult to hide 200,000 pieces of armor in the Astrology City, but it is impossible to hide an army of 200,000 people. Not to mention 200,000, even 50,000 is unlikely.
The lord of the astrology city is the rune family Ye family, and like Dayu's top gate lord Guixun, the Ye family has been inherited for thousands of years. But listening to the Ye family's own statement, they have been inherited from the ancient alien race.
The night family is proficient in runes, although they do not earn titles by fighting for military merits like White Horse City, but with their unique rune skills, they are very important in Dayu. Dayu Military Department, more than eighty percent of the military formations are from the astrological city. To say that the astrological city betrayed Dayu, it is really a huge loss for Dayu.
Although Astrology City is an independent city, it is not as indistinguishable as White Horse City, and even if it is self-governing, it still has its own private army. The city is nominally autonomous, but very open.
After thousands of years of accumulation, the Astrology City has been built into a fantastic rune kingdom. In the Astrology City, runes can be seen everywhere, and in the Astrology City, any beautiful picture can appear. Because the astrological city has turned the whole city into a fairy tale.
There is no garrison in the Astrology City, and the permanent population of the city is only 70,000, but the floating population in the Astrology City is 200,000. The gates of the Astrology City are open to the whole world at any time, and you can come to the Astrology City whenever you want, if you want.
But the premise is that you must not be a fugitive, and you must not be here to wreak havoc.
Lu Sheng came to the astrology city with Bu Feiyan, and in Lu Sheng's opinion, this is a huge playground. Both of them travel in casual clothes, and they are talented and envious of others.
The city gate of the astrology city is open, and the city gate is like the street of the capital, and the traffic is frequent. When I entered the city gate, there was no city defense army to check and set up checkpoints or anything, so I lined up directly and entered easily.
In the center of the square is a fountain pool, behind which are the three main roads leading to the city.
This scene seemed ordinary to Lu Sheng, but Bu Feiyan's face was full of surprise.
"Husband, the astrology city is so beautiful...... I didn't even know there was such a beautiful city in the world. ”
"The magic of the astrology city is famous among the gate lord clans, but it is rarely spread among the martial arts. It's normal that you didn't know before, but this is a tourist attraction for dignitaries. ”
"But how is it that such a beautiful city is not guarded? There is no city defense even at the gate, in case someone is going to attack it...... How to deal with it?"
"Hahaha...... You're thinking too much about it. I don't want to think about where the astrology city is located? In the hinterland of Taiyuan, if there are enemy troops near the astrology city, it means that Taiyuan has fallen. What is the Astrology City doing at this point?
And don't underestimate this small astrological city, which is built on top of a huge formation. I couldn't believe that a mortal could build such a big array. And what is the driving force of such a big array? Either the cultivation of the Immortal Realm, or there is a spiritual vein under this astrological city. ”
"Big array?" Bu Feiyan's eyes swept over the surrounding flowers and plants flying in the sky, "Are these these?"
"No! these are embellishments made of runes, ornaments. I still can't understand this big array, but I can be sure that once the big array is generated, the astrology city will be impregnable, and you won't want to shake your million-strong army. ”
"It's the same as the eight-door ban in Chuzhou?"
"It's stronger than Chuzhou's eight-door ban!" Lu Sheng said affirmatively.
"That seems to have to be captured from within...... What if the enemy infiltrates?" Bu Feiyan seemed to be on a par with Lu Sheng on this issue.
Well...... People will inevitably become a barrage at a certain time, and Bu Feiyan will also subconsciously enter this strange circle.
"When we passed through the city gates, do you know why there were no city guards to search?"
Bu Feiyan shook his head.
"The lamp above the head at the city gate is actually not an ordinary lamp, but a rune induction formation. If we bring dangerous items, or bring blades or something, we will inevitably be searched. Therefore, there are no checkpoints at the city gate. ”
couldn't say Lu Sheng, Bu Feiyan's face showed a hint of frustration.
"How do we check next?" Bu Feiyan instantly collected his mood and asked with some excitement.
After being married for so many years, Bu Feiyan investigated the case with Lu Sheng for the first time. This is different from fighting, investigating a case is more exciting and more desirable than fighting.
"Of course, it's eating, drinking, and having fun, how can you not play the whole astrological city? But speaking of which, we are not familiar with life, and it seems that it is not easy to visit the astrological city in the shortest possible time......"
If in the previous life, in any tourist city, as long as you did not come in a group, when you wandered in the city, looking unfamiliar with the place, there would inevitably be a self-proclaimed tour guide Mao Sui self-recommendation. And brag about how familiar you are with the city, which can help you understand the charm of the city and save you money. You only have to pay how much a day......
"This son, miss, is this the first time you have come to the Astrology City?"
A stirring voice appeared very at the right time, and sure enough, whatever you wanted.
Lu Sheng looked over, but it was a boy who seemed to be sixteen or seventeen years old. They are short and thin. And when the young man was talking, his eyes looked directly into Lu Sheng's eyes.
There is no dodge with the eyes of thieves, and there is no constant sneaking at Bu Feiyan. Lu Sheng knows very well that the beauty of Bu Feiyan is not something that anyone can resist. Even a righteous gentleman can't help but peep frequently.
The young man could look directly into Lu Sheng's eyes, and his eyes were full of longing. This shows that the boy very much hopes to be recognized by Lu Sheng, which shows that he is eager to make money.
Although the eyes cannot speak, they can express more meaning than words.
Lu Sheng smiled faintly, "Yes, it's the first time I've come." In the past, I just heard that the astrology city is a dreamy city, and I also heard from friends that if you don't go to the astrology city in this life, you will be born rich and noble. So I came with my wife.
Little brother, are you from the Astrology City?"
"Childe, three generations of my family have been residents of the Astrology City, the streets and alleys of the Astrology City, I can walk with my eyes closed, and I know all the restaurants, inns, and houses in the city. You guys...... Need me as a guide. ”
This look is so eager, like a diamond. Bryn's is hard for Lu Sheng to refuse.
"It's useless to talk too much, how much is it a day?" Lu Sheng didn't like to bargain, and asked straight to the point.
"Accompany the whole process, including board and lodging, fifty wen a day!"
The price is very fair. Fifty wen is equivalent to fifty yuan in later generations. The purchasing power is only enough for a family to eat the simplest meal of the day.
Lu Sheng nodded, "Yes." ”
"Childe, how long do you plan to stay in the Astrology City? There are three days to play in three days, and five days to play in five days......
"I'll stay until I'm satisfied. ”
"Okay, childe, the villain's name is Dongzi, Dongzi of winter. So now the villain will take you to stay in the inn first, and today the villain will take you to visit the eastern part of the city, where there are hanging gardens, pyramid cemeteries, and dream sky secret realms. After visiting these three places, it is basically about the same in one day. ”
Dongzi immediately enthusiastically sold to Lu Sheng, and then led Lu Sheng to find an inn in Dongcheng District. asked Lu Sheng for an upper room, and asked for a stable for himself. Dongzi also bargained for Lu Sheng, and originally cut one or two pieces of silver for 1,200 wen a night. The angry shopkeeper's face was pale, and he gritted his teeth.
"You're very sharp-tongued, why do you want to bargain for us? It stands to reason that if you help the inn get too high, maybe you can earn another fifty cents. ”
"Childe, to tell you the truth, there are indeed many of them. But I'm not doing this full-time, so I'm not afraid of offending people. And since I have taken your money, I am thy man. I only need to think about you while I am being hired by you.
What is it called...... That's right, integrity!"
"Are you hungry?" Suddenly, Lu Sheng asked Dongzi with a smile, because in this hour, Lu Sheng heard Dongzi's stomach rumbling more than once.
"I didn't ...... I didn't ......," Fuyuko stammered.
"You saved me 800 wen, and I will treat you to breakfast. ”
"Thank you...... Thank you, Childe!" Although Fuyuko's words were not polite, the depths of her eyes were red.
On the third pole of the day, Lu Sheng and Bu Feiyan came to the pyramid group in the eastern district under the leadership of Dongzi. The pyramid is the kind of pyramid that Lu Sheng saw in his previous life, and it is also a mausoleum, but it is not a mausoleum for one person.
The burial of the astrological city seems to have surpassed the level of civilization of this era. They bury the dead and don't take much land. Instead, the corpse is passed through the circle and turned into a stone statue. The stone carvings are then packed into concrete.
