Chapter 77: South City

The next day, Huang Xuan left early in the morning. Although the owner of this shop is very good to himself, he is still quite awkward to look at the two of them.

Of course, the more important point is that he is here to cultivate, not to go into the city to play. And in a place like an inn, where dragons and snakes are mixed, it is impossible to practice quietly.

In the end, before dawn, Huang Xuan put the remaining 90 copper coins on the counter and left silently.

He had to find a place suitable for cultivation and at the same time be able to monitor the General's Mansion's every move.

Fortunately, Luo Xuan reminded that there is no problem with monitoring within a radius of 20 miles, otherwise it is really not easy to find such a place to live.

The radius is 20 miles, and the entire Ye City is only 7 or 8 miles in radius, which means that even if Huang Xuan lives outside the city, it doesn't matter, but considering that it is easy to get out of the city and difficult to come in, Huang Xuan has to reconsider.

The early morning in Yecheng was busy, and the busiest area happened to be in the area where the southern district continued to go south, and the non-stop noise at that moment kept coming to the north of Huangxuan, which attracted Huangxuan's attention from time to time, and rekindled his silent gossip heart.

"This is the South Gate? It's a little too small. ”

When I came to Yecheng on the first day, although I was also wandering, my heart was not here, and I didn't pay too much attention to the city wall at that time.

And when I came to Nancheng today, I saw clearly that the city wall of this Nancheng was only equivalent to one-third of the height of the other three places, and the gate here was really just a gate, which was no different from the door in ordinary families.

There were only two soldiers defending the city, and it didn't look like a fortified city anyway.

If the enemy starts attacking from here, no matter how well you defend it, it will not help.

Such a strange combination does not make people curious.

If Ye Cheng is too safe, then all the city gates can be opened, there is no need to take off his pants and fart, and strictly prevent other places, but he can release an opening here.

Driven by instinctive curiosity, Huang Xuan thought that this place was definitely not simple.

He stepped forward, ready to walk through the small door, when two soldiers standing by the door stopped them.

They looked Huang Xuan up and down and asked, "Sir, are you going out of the city?"

Huang Xuan instinctively shuddered and replied, "No." ”

But at this moment, there was a little drumming in my heart, could it be that I guessed wrong before, this is really outside the city, and the south gate of this Ye City is such a dilapidated place.

But inevitably the other party saw the clues, and Huang Xuan pretended to be calm.

Surprisingly, the two did not stop again. The two just looked at each other, smiled slightly, and ignored them.

Is this attitude passable?

At this time, Huang Xuan was confused!

Isn't this torture? Halfway through, and without telling the reason, who are you going to die in a hurry?

The two of them no longer cared about it, but for the doubts in their hearts, Huang Xuan could take the initiative to ask.

He stepped forward and said to the two city gate brothers very respectfully: "Two big brothers, I don't know what the two of you mean, you stopped the little one before, but now why did you let it go without saying a word?"

Hearing him say this, the two little brothers were confused this time, looked at him with a surprised face, and asked, "Don't you know?"

Huang Xuan was at a loss when he asked this, and he thought to himself: "Should I know? Big brother, this is the first time I've come?"

"It seems that you are coming to Yechengnan City for the first time, looking at your attitude before, I thought you were old, so you didn't continue, and I ask for your understanding. ”

"The little ones don't dare, the two big brothers are polite. ”

The other party was polite to himself, and Huang Xuan couldn't hold it, so he hurriedly returned the courtesy.

At this time, one of the city gate brothers raised his thick arm and pointed his finger, Huang Xuan looked in this direction, and found that there was a notice board erected only about 10 meters away from him, with two big words "warning" on it.

Huang Xuan instinctively walked over and carefully examined the contents of the notice.

[Tell the people of Yecheng to travel to and from Yecheng, this place is the junction of Yecheng South Street and Yecheng South City. Nanshi, although it is my Yecheng territory, is also Yecheng's extralegal land. There are a mixture of dragons and snakes here, and there are no strange things about the three religions and nine streams. Please enter with caution. 】

Huang Xuan was also really shocked when he saw it, how could there be such a strange place? Why did the dignified Ye Cheng want to make an extralegal place, could it be that there was a more powerful existence than the official army of Ye Cheng. so powerful that even the city defense generals can't interfere.

On the other side, the little brother of the city gate walked over, holding a gold-painted red wooden plaque in his hand, and handed it directly to Huang Xuan and said:

"Take this card, if you want to come back, you must have this card, we soldiers in the south city, only recognize the card and do not recognize people. ”

Huang Xuan took the card, thinking to himself, "Is there really danger here?"

And another middle-aged sergeant, who was a little older, saw Huang Xuan like this, understood his concerns and stepped forward to explain: "

Young man, seeing that you are a foreigner and young, I will say a few more words to you. This southern city does have many opportunities, and it is also a paradise for adventurers.

But there are also myriad dangers. At a young age, don't listen to some people's slander, people still have to be down-to-earth. ”

Uncle Sergeant's admonition, Huang Xuan's heart was still grateful, but this aroused Huang Xuan's interest even more, he suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked:

"Uncle, is this Nanshi the territory of Ye Cheng?"

Looking at the curiosity on the young man's face, it is estimated that he is also confused, the sergeant uncle shook his head, although he was a little regretful, but he still politely began to explain:

"This southern city still belongs to the scope of Yecheng, as long as you pass through the southern city to the southernmost side, you will find that there is a city wall that is as majestic as the east and west, the north and the west, and the three cities. This southern city is still surrounded by Ye City. ”

"Since it belongs to Ye City, then why can Nan City not have to enforce the laws of the city lord, won't this be chaotic?" Huang Xuan continued to ask.

"Young man, let me tell you about the origin of this Nanshi, and you will understand. ”

"All the residents of Nanshi are actually not the people of my Zheng Kingdom. Most of them are composed of displaced people who have been flowing into my Zheng country through the years of war.

I, Zheng Guojun, have a kind heart, and I feel that these people are displaced and don't even have a place to live, so I put all these people who fled from other countries into the jurisdiction of Yecheng.

However, because these people are too different from the people of Zheng State, and the people of Zheng State are not willing to be with them, in the end, in this Ye City, with the consent of the king, one city and two systems were implemented. ”

"These displaced people from the interior of the country who joined my Zheng Guo are all encircled in Yechengnan City, which is also easy to manage. The most important thing is that in wartime, these newcomers to Zheng Guo, who are on the periphery, are also a new force that cannot be underestimated. ”

The monarch specially ordered them that as long as they had Zheng Guo in their hearts, would not commit treason within 20 years, and other major bad deeds occurred, they could be directly promoted to become Zheng Guo citizens and enjoy all the treatment of the people. But because of their foreign status, there is no need to be overly harsh on them for 20 years.

Give them all this place outside the law, and give them self-government. The City Lord of Ye City was not allowed to intervene.

"Oh, I see, the monarch is really very far-sighted. In the world of great contention, one is for land, and the other is for population. And the land has to be defended by someone. ”

Although they admire the way the monarch handles it, aren't they afraid that these people will be in chaos, this is a big force, who can stop it once they make trouble. Huang Xuan had doubts and continued to ask.

The two sergeants, one big and one small, laughed and said, "Child, you are too naΓ―ve. Rebellion, give them 10 guts and don't dare. It seems that this southern city is a place outside the law, and no one is running it, but you don't know that this southern city is surrounded by high walls all around.

And I, Zheng Guo tens of thousands of soldiers, perennial garrison on the city wall, condescending, surrounded the south of the city, once it is clear that the chaos, the general order, tens of thousands of soldiers and arrows fire, the south city suddenly into a scorched earth, a sea of fire. Those who are surrounded inside are not allowed to break out of the encirclement of the army. ”

Huang Xuan looked into the distance, and it was difficult to see the city wall in the distance from here, but the city wall around this small gate was still clear. I immediately understood the difficulty of rushing the card.

"Young man, it seems that this Nanshi is a place outside the law, and there are endless things about killing people and looting treasures and goods, but once there is any sign of rebellion, the general will be able to know it immediately. ”

The young military said, but the uncle next to him glared at him and didn't continue.

Huang Xuan understood that there must be a lot of secrets involved here. There may also be countless plainclothes spies inside, who monitor it all year round, just to monitor the movements of this group of people.

In such a chaotic place, if it was the former Huangxuan, he would definitely stay away, but at this moment he is already a monk. And Luo Xuan has already said that in this Ye City, there are not many monks, except for the cultivation of the city lord in the early stage of the Third Mansion, most of the soldiers are only in the early and middle stages of the Second Mansion.

Among the civilians, there are even fewer monks, and the monks of Huangxuan's First Mansion, even if they are defeated by the Second Mansion, there is no problem in using the Divine Phantom to escape.

Thinking of this, this Nanshi is simply a great place for him to tailor and make a big difference.

He has already done it, and he must abide by the law in this Yecheng, and in that place outside the law, strength is respected, and he can do whatever he wants.

What you grab with strength, that's your own.

At this moment, Huang Xuan was already eager to try, ready to go in and show his ambitions.

Of course, the most important thing is to find a good place to live in for cultivation.

And the uncle sergeant also saw his excitement, and his heartfelt words were all here, and he was also benevolent and righteous. Finally, the enthusiastic uncle reminded again: "Young man, you can't lose this identity card, otherwise you won't be able to come back, understand?"

"Thank you, uncle, I remembered. ”

After speaking, Huang Xuan went straight through this small gate and entered this extralegal place, the adventurer's paradise.
