What a majestic city is this?

Ning Heng had been to Beilinzhou and had seen the Beilin Palace, which was the largest royal city in Kyushu in the North.

But compared with the imperial capital in front of him, the palace in the north is far away.

At a glance, he could only see the towering city wall like a mountain, even if Ning Heng and a few people were on the flying boat, they couldn't overlook the situation in the imperial capital.

From a distance, it looks like a black beast entrenched on the earth, and anyone who sees it will feel a sense of shock in their hearts.

Just a city is the size of a state!

Ning Heng is okay, after all, he has the experience of being a human being in two lives, and he has seen a lot of worlds, although this imperial capital is majestic and magnificent, it can't make him too gaffe.

But Ling Chaoyang and Wang Dazhuang were different, the two of them had never thought that the imperial capital would be so huge, they were completely stunned, standing there staring at each other.

"That's too big, isn't it?" Wang Dazhuang opened his mouth and exclaimed.

Although Ling Chaoyang didn't speak, the shocked look on his face fully reflected the shock in his heart at the moment.

Seeing the two of them making such a fuss, Zheng Lao couldn't help but feel a little funny, pointed to the imperial capital and said to the two: "What you see is only the northern wall of the imperial capital, and when you arrive at the imperial capital, you will really see the demeanor of the imperial capital." ”

Ling Chaoyang and Wang Dazhuang were a little nervous, this is like a countryman entering the city, from one place to another completely different place, it is inevitable that they will be a little uncomfortable, not to mention that this is the imperial capital, people who come for the first time are estimated to have this sense of nervousness.

Ning Heng looked at this majestic imperial capital, and his heart was also a little emotional and complicated, when he thought that person was in this city, Ning Heng inexplicably hesitated in his heart, and wanted to run away.

But it's all here, and Ning Heng can't regret it anymore.

"Except for His Majesty Hongchen in the imperial capital, no one else can enter and exit by flying boat, we have to land on the north city wall, and then enter the imperial capital through the city gate, you will take out your respective identity tokens, as well as the letter of recommendation from the general town of Beishan Prefecture, all in your hands, and you can use it when the time comes." Elder Zheng instructed Ning Heng and the others.

After the three of them took the token and the letter of recommendation in their hands, Zheng Lao manipulated the flying boat to fall to the ground, and then the four of them got off the flying boat and walked to the city gate.

Even if you haven't entered the imperial capital yet, this place is already very lively, there are a lot of people in and out of the imperial capital, lined up in a long line, and there are many people who set up a small stall nearby to do some business, among which there are many people who do martial arts business, just like a small bazaar.

However, although there are many people here, it does not seem to be chaotic, whether it is the people waiting in line to enter the city, or those who set up stalls to do business, it is very quiet, no one makes a loud noise, no one shouts indiscriminately, and even if it is a conversation, it is also a low voice.

It is no wonder that this is the imperial capital after all, even outside the city gate, there is an order that cannot be violated, once someone makes trouble at the city gate, the defenders at the city gate have the right to cut first and then play.

And making a loud noise is also a kind of troublemaker, unless it is the kind of soil bun who really doesn't know anything and comes to the imperial capital for the first time, basically everyone will abide by the order here, and dare not disobey it in the slightest.

Zheng Lao naturally told Ning Heng and the three of them not to make noise, even if they wanted to talk, they should try to be as quiet as possible.

After the three of them remembered, they followed Zheng Lao's side and walked all the way to the city gate.

However, Zheng Lao did not line up with Ning Heng and the others, but went straight to the city gate.

"What for? The forbidden land of the capital, if you want to enter the city, roll to the back and line up! The golden-armored guards at the city gate immediately shouted at Zheng Lao and the others.

Although he is just a soldier watching the city gate, after all, he is standing at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and he is very arrogant when he speaks, and he does not look at ordinary people in his eyes.

Zheng Lao snorted, took out a token with some displeasure and said, "Open your eyes and take a good look, does the old man need to queue up?" ”

The golden-armored soldier had an impatient look on his face, and after glancing at the token in Zheng Lao's hand, his face suddenly changed, and he immediately became respectful.

"Oh, hey, it turned out to be the deacon of the Holy Courtyard, and the little one has eyes and no beads, so he offended the deacon." The gold-armored soldier hurriedly bowed to Old Zheng with a look of awe on his face.

Just kidding, the deacons of the Imperial Courtyard are all characters with heads and faces, how can he be offended by a small soldier guarding the city?

According to the rules, the people of the Imperial Courtyard have the right to enter the city first, and there is no need to line up behind those ordinary people, and the golden-armored soldiers are ready to let Zheng Lao go.

Elder Zheng didn't go in immediately, and pointed to Ning Heng and the three people behind him and said to the golden-armored soldier: "The three of them are from Beishan Prefecture, and they have a letter of recommendation from the Beishan Prefecture General Town, and they want to come to participate in the assessment of the Holy Academy, and the old man is their guide." ”

The gold-armored soldier looked at Ning Heng and the three of them and said, "Take out your identity token and letter of recommendation." ”

Ning Heng and the three of them naturally handed over the things to the golden armor soldier for inspection, this is a necessary procedure, and Zheng Lao does not need to be checked, but Ning Heng and the three of them are not big people after all, and they still have to be checked if they want to enter the city.

After the golden armor soldier examined it, he contacted his boss through the summons Yu Jian, and it took some time to truly confirm that there was no problem with the identities of Ning Heng and the others.

"Alright, you can go in." The golden armor soldier said after returning the token and the letter of recommendation to Ning Heng and the others.

"I'm tired." After Ning Heng saluted, he had to follow Elder Zheng to the city.

At this moment, I saw a light laugh behind me: "Deacon Zheng, I didn't expect you to come back one step faster than me." ”

Zheng Lao looked back, his brows immediately furrowed, and he said lukewarmly: "Such a coincidence? Meet Deacon Huang here. ”

I saw a middle-aged man with a slightly pale face walking over with three young people, and the one who was called Deacon Huang by Zheng Lao was the middle-aged man with a pale face.

Deacon Huang came closer, hugged his fist towards Zheng Laoyi with a smile on his face, and then looked at Ning Heng and the three of them, and the corners of his mouth were a little disdainful.

"Is this the newcomer that Zheng Lao brought this year?" Deacon Huang said contemptuously.

Old Zheng said expressionlessly: "It is indeed a newcomer brought by the old man, does Deacon Huang have any advice?" ”

Deacon Huang said with a smile: "I don't dare to give advice, but two of the newcomers brought by Mr. Zheng last time didn't even pass the admission assessment, and the newcomers last time were removed from the hospital without being able to stay in the hospital for three years, but I don't know if these three newcomers this year can be stronger than the previous ones?" Hearing this, Zheng Lao's face was obviously not good-looking, and Deacon Huang's face had an obvious playful smile.

"The people brought by the old man don't have to worry about Deacon Huang." Zheng Lao said coldly, and he was going to take Ning Heng and the others into the city gate.

saw that Deacon Huang walked quickly, directly stopping in front of Ning Heng and the others.

"What do you do?" Zheng Lao said with some annoyance.

Deacon Huang smiled slightly: "I just want to get to know these three young juniors." ”

Ning Heng and the three of them looked at each other, what kind of situation is this? It seems that there are some grievances between these two deacons of the Holy Academy, and the three of them were completely involved for no reason.

"Where are you three from?" Deacon Huang ignored Elder Zheng's ugly face and asked Ning Heng and the others directly.

Ning Heng looked at Zheng Lao, and seeing that Zheng Lao didn't say anything, he immediately arched his hand and said, "The three of us are from Beishan Prefecture. ”

Deacon Huang frowned when he heard this: "Beishan Prefecture? The place at the bottom of the Northland Kyushu rankings? ”

Ning Heng said calmly: "Beishan Prefecture ranked third in the Kyushu Big Competition this year, not the bottom. ”

Deacon Huang pouted: "It turns out that you are from such a small place, I advise you to go back and forth, the Imperial Pilgrimage Courtyard is not so easy to enter, with your qualifications, even the admission assessment is dangerous." ”

Zheng Lao couldn't help it, and said angrily: "Huang Wenshan, can the people I brought use you to point fingers?" Just take care of your own people! ”

That Huang Wenshan smiled: "The people I brought are naturally better than the people brought by you Zheng Lao, the three of them will definitely be able to pass the admission assessment, Zheng Lao should not forget, their performance is also related to the evaluation and face of our deacons, Zheng Lao should not become a laughing stock like in the past." ”

Zheng Lao's face was pale, but his heart was full of helplessness and bitterness.

Although Huang Wenshan's words were mean, what he said was true.

As a deacon of the Holy Seminary, every time the Holy Courtyard admits students, it is also the time when the deacons have to be evaluated.

The better the performance of the outstanding children of each state brought in, the better the evaluation will be.

The people brought by Zheng Lao in the past were all very poor, so that Zheng Lao's own evaluation in the Holy Courtyard also lagged behind other deacons, and this Huang Wenshan's luck was very good, they all went to the southern states to attract outstanding children, and the people brought were all good people, making Huang Wenshan rank among the best in the previous deacon evaluation.

Therefore, although Zheng Lao said that his qualifications were older than Huang Wenshan, he was a little unable to raise his head in front of Huang Wenshan.

"Come on, come on, you three little guys come to see Elder Zheng, he is the oldest of our deacons in the Holy Academy."

Huang Wenshan said to the three young men and women he brought, and the three of them came close to him with a smile and saluted to Zheng Lao very casually.

Zheng Lao snorted: "Where are the three of you from?" ”

The only woman among the three said: "Back to Elder Zheng, the three of us are from Nanyue Prefecture. ”

Zheng Lao's eyes narrowed slightly, Nanyue Prefecture is a big state in the south, and it has always been among the top three in the southern nine states, and in the past few admission assessments, one or two geniuses will emerge in Nanyue Prefecture.

"I didn't expect that Huang Wenshan's luck was so good, he actually went to Nanyue Prefecture, it seems that this time, he will definitely be very high again." Old Zheng sighed secretly in his heart.

It must be false to say that you are not jealous, but this is also something that cannot be helped, which state the deacon of the Holy Court goes to pick up newcomers is arranged by the above, unless it is to give benefits to the above competition, and arrange for himself to go to those big states with outstanding martial arts strength, otherwise he can only go to some weak states.

Although Zheng Lao has no complaints about going to Beishan Prefecture to pick up newcomers, if he is given a choice, he also wants to go to a big state like Nanyue Prefecture.

Huang Wenshan said quite proudly: "There are a lot of good seedlings emerging in Nanyue Prefecture this year, and the general town of Nanyue Prefecture has been dazzled in order to select the three best seedlings, or I helped him select these three little guys, there is no need to worry about the entrance assessment, even among the new students of the entire Holy Academy, it should be able to be relatively high." ”

The three young people from South Vietnam were also proud, and they were obviously proud of their origins.

Ning Heng and the others felt awkward in their hearts, but they didn't say anything.

Zheng Lao didn't want to say anything more to this Huang Wenshan, so he beckoned to Ning Heng and the three of them, and the three of them immediately followed behind Zheng Lao, ignoring the arrogant Huang Wenshan, and went straight through the city gate and into the imperial capital.

Huang Wenshan sneered, and took the three young people from Nanyue Prefecture into the city unhurriedly.

Entering the imperial capital, what Ning Heng and the three of them saw in front of them was naturally another world, the figures of warriors could be seen everywhere, high-ranking mansions abounded, spacious streets extended in all directions, and the figures of people coming and going were even more like tides, dazzling.

Ning Heng and the others were dumbfounded, this was a hundred times more lively than the most prosperous Beishan City in Beishan Prefecture.

"Hehe, three dirt buns." A sarcastic voice sounded, and Huang Wenshan walked over with the three people from Nanyue Prefecture, and the person who spoke was the only woman among the three.

Wang Dazhuang was a little unhappy, and immediately shot back: "Who are you talking about?" Have you Southern Barbarians ever been to the imperial capital? ”

The woman smiled contemptuously: "I have been to the imperial capital twice. ”

Wang Dazhuang was speechless for a moment, people have really been to the imperial capital, which is embarrassing.

"People from small places in the north just can't get on the stage." The majestic young man beside the woman said indifferently.

Ning Heng's faces were a little unpleasant, did he and the others provoke the three of them, why did they open their mouths and close their mouths so much?

Zheng Lao said with some anger: "You three are too presumptuous. ”

Huang Wenshan immediately said: "Why should Elder Zheng be angry? Young people are already arrogant, so let's not get involved in this little thing. ”

The woman looked Ning Heng and the three of them up and down, and the sneer on her face was even worse: "A fat man, a thin man, and a little white face, it's really interesting." ”

Ning Hengyi frowned: "Enough is enough, I haven't had a holiday with you, don't go too far." ”

The young woman looked at Ning Heng contemptuously: "I just don't like you northerners, I feel uncomfortable when I see you." ”

"Northerners should nest in the north, and the imperial capital is not something you countrymen can do." The majestic young man said the same.

Although the handsome young man who had never spoken was silent, the contemptuous attitude on his face also said it all.

Ning Heng can see it, this is completely because the southern Kyushu looks down on the northern Kyushu, no wonder these three guys have a sense of superiority on their faces.

However, it is true that the northern Kyushu is not competitive, whether it is in terms of martial arts strength or wealth, the southern Kyushu is much better than the northern Kyushu.
