Chapter 39: A Guest from Jianyuan (2)
The city gate is different from the rest of the city gates, because the city gates of the Celestial Empire are guarded by many guards.
Of course, there are also guards who are specially responsible for receiving the three major sects.
It wasn't until the figures of the two people gradually became clear in front of the city gate that a guard stepped forward and clenched his fists.
"Dare to ask if the two of you are from Jianyuan?"
Luo Ning said with a smile, "There is really a lot of information in the Imperial City, presumably there are eyeliners all the way." ”
The guard smiled politely, but didn't say much.
Luo Ning had to say something, and then he remembered that the one behind him was the protagonist, and he turned sideways to let go of Qin Boyi.
Qin Boyi nodded and said, "The Twelfth Mountain Sect of Jianyuan is a disciple. ”
Luo Ning was a little embarrassed, and thought about his identity as a disciple of the First Heavy Mountain Sect, but finally did not speak.
The guard glanced at him, then made a gesture of invitation, and then let the two men into the city gate.
Qin Boyi turned his head and asked the guard, "Where are we going?"
The guard said, "The palace is now unoccupied, so let's go to the summer resort to meet the saint, which is the second palace." ”
Luo Ning asked, "What kind of monster is that?"
The guard shook his head, "No one has ever seen its face at all, it is said to be extremely powerful, and even several scattered generals have been killed." ”
Qin Boyi limped behind the guard, listening to the conversation between the two of them, and didn't care. She began to look at the Celestial Empire, not to mention her, even Luo Ning came to the Celestial Empire for the first time.
The prosperity of the entire Celestial Empire was not a grade worse than the town they had at the foot of Jianyuan Mountain.
Qin Boyi didn't have much interest in the others.
Her gaze kept falling on the fat powder on the side of the road.
Many people looked at them and noticed that the lame girl was a little handsome among the guards.
Those people only thought that she was the daughter of a certain family, and few people set their eyes on Luo Ning.
The crowd crossed the side street, then two more streets, and a staircase flashed in front of them.
The whole building is extremely magnificent, even more luxurious than the door where the elder of Jianyuan lives, the red light is colorful, Qin Boyi smelled an extremely strong aroma of fat powder from a distance, and there is a huge sign hanging on the red light, which is written in a very grand style, "Red Dust Pavilion".
Thinking about it, this is what Luo Ning said about the green building.
There were a few women of extremely good stature standing in the doorway, like these guards throwing flattering eyes, causing some of these guards to be distracted.
Qin Boyi's gaze fell on their makeup, the makeup was powdery, and the match was extremely exquisite, and it looked very good-looking.
The girl walked quietly, bowing her head, not knowing what to think.
However, Luo Ning, who was not interested in these at all, thought about the Starfall Pavilion mentioned by Qin Boyi and Yang Dingtian, turned his head and asked the guard, "In addition to the Red Dust Pavilion in your Heavenly Dynasty, are there any other pavilions?"
The guard was stunned for a moment, misunderstood what Luo Ning meant, and said with a smile. "There is also the Spring Breeze Pavilion in the city, and the Cloud Pavilion...... The girls there are all beautiful and handsome......"
Luo Ning frowned and asked directly, "Have you ever heard of Starfall Pavilion?"
The guard thought for a moment, "I've never heard of that. ”
Luo Ning pondered and asked, "Then who else in this Heavenly Empire is the most well-informed?"
The guard smiled bitterly, "I work for the emperor, and the black and white in the Celestial Empire are even more all-encompassing, and I have heard more or less about the big and small things in the Xianyang of the Celestial Empire, but this Starfall Pavilion, I have indeed never heard of it." ”
Luo Ning continued to ask, "Then is there anyone in this imperial city who is more well-informed than you?"
The guard pouted.
Luo Ning looked up, and a tall tower faintly appeared in the distance.
Although it was far away, Luo Ning felt an extremely leisurely aura of slaughter in this tower.
The whole tower is not visible, but you can see the spire, which is as magnificent as a hill.
"The Great Priest in the Heavenly Heart Tower is the one who knows the most in the entire Heavenly Empire, but it's just ......"
The guard coughed dryly twice and continued, "This tower is opened once every five years, and it does not answer any questions except for state affairs. He turned his head to look at Qin Boyi. "I heard that this time, if any of your three major sects can catch the monster, there will be a chance to enter the Tianxin Tower to meet the Great Priest, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you cultivators. ”
Qin Boyi nodded slightly, as if he didn't care.
The group walked for a while, and only then did a mountain villa flash in front of them.
It was built on a dirt hill in the city, and it is said that it was the palace of the former Qin Emperor, and was finally changed into a summer resort by the Zhou Dynasty.
Near and near, there is an extremely cool breeze in the distance, which makes people feel very comfortable in this scorching heat.
Qin Boyi asked again, "What about the people from Beihai Cloud Mountain and Gun Forest?"
The guard replied, "It's already here." ”
Luo Ning's face changed slightly.
The guard added, "But you don't have to worry about them robbing you of your credit, the emperor ordered everyone to go to the villa for dinner first, and then discuss the matter of catching demons together." ”
Luo Ning's face changed a few times.
I thought that this emperor was really calculating, and the three major sects were intriguing in order to prevent each other from discovering their own lines, but I didn't expect that all the calculations along the way would be in vain.
The guard sneered, "It's just that if you arrive later, it may affect the emperor's impression of you." ”
Qin Boyi said coldly, "How important is the impression? Whoever can catch the monster will have a good impression of whom." ”
The guard shook his head and sneered, and said no more, thinking that this lame girl was really arrogant and arrogant.
The group entered the palace.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the palace, Luo Ning found that there were two young men sitting under a pavilion.
One of them is Ye Qing.
The other is a bookish scholar.
Luo Ning's gaze fell on the knife behind him, and his eyes suddenly became cold.
- This knife is very similar to the long knife in the hand of the strange man who attacked them that day.
And the latter's gaze fell on the refined silver sword behind Luo Ning's back, and his gaze was also a little cold.
"In the lower Beihai Yunshan old swordsman disciple, Gu Changsheng. ”
The scholar said with a fist at Qin Boyi, but his eyes were always on Luo Ning.
Luo Ning was looked at a little unnaturally, and he could only clasp his fists, "Luo Ning, the first heavy mountain disciple in Xia Jian Yuan." ”
Everyone in the world knows that the thirteen mountain gates of Jianyuan are the outermost gates.
Luo Ning reported his name, and even the guards just now looked at Luo Ning with some disdain in their eyes.
The scholar smiled faintly and mocked, "It turned out to be a senior disciple of the First Heavy Mountain Gate, but I didn't know ...... this girl."
Qin Boyi didn't squint, and didn't pay attention to Gu Changsheng's words, the latter was bored, and went back to sit down again.
Qin Boyi said to the guard, "Since we have all arrived, take us to meet the saint." ”
The guard agreed, and led the three of them up to the main hall.
In the main hall, extremely noble incense is lit, like the fragrance of grass and flowers, which makes people smell extraordinarily refreshing.
The guards led the group to sit on either side.
Someone next to him came up and looked at a few teenagers and girls hesitantly.
"You have to meet the saints, and according to reason, you are not allowed to carry any weapons on your body. ”
Ye Qing's face changed slightly.
The scholar's face was also a little unnatural.
Luo Ning instantly understood that he wanted to disarm, that is, to give them a dismount.
