Chapter 242: Alone to White Emperor City
"Bingtuozi, when I come back, can you really help me find out?"
Zimo's silver eyes exuded a strange color. Suddenly, he smiled, and the color of the alluring city was printed with the morning sun, making his smile even more dazzling, "Yes." ”
The tone of the sworn is determined not to be questioned by anyone.
That's fine, I don't know if Fu Xiao has the ability to help me find out what my old man and I can't find out by myself, but whether Bingtuozi has that ability, I still have a little expectation.
"Master, you can rest assured that the emperor will send eight hundred dead soldiers to protect you secretly. I also hope for the master...... Go early and come back early. ”
It's always the master, the master, he's not tired, I'm tired of listening...... And it's just as awkward as ...... original!! However, much persuasion didn't seem to work, and he still called me that......
Shaking my head, I stopped thinking about the miscellaneous things, and after clearing my thoughts and preparing briefly, I turned on my horse and left the Monkey Universe Country.
Originally, I thought in advance to find the Ghost Saint Silver Diagram ———— the silver-eyed man, but after thinking about it, that attack was originally hired by the Sheep Emperor, and the Ghost Clan was attached to the White Emperor City's Shoucheng Clan, and I had heard that the Sheep Emperor's birthday in the White Emperor City was at the end of this month, and he should go to the White Emperor City to congratulate him as the saint of the Ghost Clan, so I could also represent Fu Xiao to envoy to the White Emperor City to congratulate the Sheep Emperor on his birthday, so that I would not have to go to great lengths to find the Ghost Saint Silver Diagram, and I could meet him directly at the Sheep Emperor's birthday banquet.
Monkey Yuguo is very close to the White Emperor City, and at the same time, it also saves me a lot of effort to travel long distances.
The Sheep Clan was elected as the head of the Eight Clans by the other Eight Clans, unlike the North Sea Dragon Clan, the South China Sea Snake Clan, the West Sea Tiger Clan, and Fu Xiao's East China Sea Monkey Clan all have their own sea areas for their own clans to practice the martial arts and soul power of the clansmen.
When I arrived at the border between the Monkey Kingdom and the White Emperor City, along the way, it was really lively, like stepping into a new world, turning over a beautiful picture, full of beautiful scenery of water and green shadows.
The closer I got to the center of the city, the more my eyes opened, because I don't know why, most of the plants in the city are mangroves, but aren't the trees generally green? How can there still be a red-colored tree ......?
The red-colored trees are not very tall, but the trunks are red and translucent, they are strange and beautiful, the whisker-like roots of different lengths, and the staggered ground roots, orderly and twisted roots in the soil and water, the beautiful canopy, as if standing shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand, like a beautiful green fairy, graceful. It is also like a graceful and charming hibiscus out of the water, dry and cute, not only standing, but also lying down, and some are as high as two people superimposed......
Some are like "sheep looking at the mountain", some are like immortals watching the sea, some are like the phantom of the abbreviated version of the monkey Yuguo, and some are like the monkey's head and lion body, more and more into the depths of this endless "mangrove", as if coming to a phantom-like world, which is very surprising and joyful.
What shocked me the most was that the eaves of each house were floating with glittering golden scales and jade shavings, as if every family was a big family, and it was an honor only for middle- and upper-level officials in the Monkey Kingdom.
Especially the red jade palace lamp hanging at the door of every house, it directly made me dumbfounded, is it really good for this sheep emperor to manage the White Emperor City like this? No matter how rich you are, you can't show it off so blatantly......
Entering the center of the White Emperor City, it is even more lively, basically the gongs and drums are noisy, the dragon and lion dances from the street dance to the end, all kinds of vendors are densely crowded in one place, bustling, the sound of selling comes and goes, all kinds of commodities make Lang full of eyes, and the noisy sound seems to indicate that the White Emperor City is about to usher in a jubilant new atmosphere.
It's just that when I got down from my horse and went to the restaurant to settle lunch, I found that the people sitting and eating in the restaurant where I was were sitting didn't seem to look like the people from White Emperor City.
was bowing his head and drinking the tea in the cup, when he suddenly heard someone talking secretly behind him, "Hey, hey, haven't you heard, this time the Sheep Emperor's birthday, not only to feast the ministers in this White Emperor City, but also to set up a golden dragon banquet to celebrate with the courtiers and nobles of the White Emperor City." also invited the ghost clan, the blood clan, and even the North Sea Dragon King, the South China Sea Snake King, the West Sea Tiger King, and the East China Sea Fu Emperor. ”
A man dressed as a scholar at the same table also expressed his opinion one after another, "Who said it wasn't, Xun Mei's position is about to be recruited, and our Yang Huang, as the head of the eight clans, will inevitably make some big moves......"
At the same time, the grass python on the other table, looking at it in a daze, had high cheekbones, hooked noses, and thin lips. It makes people look a little uncomfortable and a little mean.
He seemed to be very interested in this topic, and leaned his head over to take over as he ate, "This brother Tai understands people." It's reasonable, it's reasonable! But have you noticed that the Dragon King of the North Sea is ambitious, the Tiger King of the East China Sea is also ambitious, swallowing mountains and rivers, and the Snake King of the South China Sea is even more ferocious and vicious, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps, why does the Yang Emperor gather the major clans to our White Emperor City? If the hospitality is not good, the soldiers will meet each other......"
There is a saying in physiognomy that the cheekbones are high...... You don't use a knife to kill your father. It can be seen that this man is not a good person. As he spoke, he glanced at where I was sitting, intentionally or unintentionally.
At this moment, the shopkeeper came out of the back kitchen with a plate and brought the dishes I ordered to the table, placing dishes on the table one by one, turning his head and trembling and interrupting cautiously, "Hey, brother, you are a martial artist, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand the things in the court, don't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense, it's an eventful time, let's just do our part......"
There is no doubt that from the words of those people just now, I learned that this time, it seems that many things are not as simple as they seem.
At first, I thought that the White Emperor City was in the small border area of the Monkey Yu Kingdom, and it was understandable to send an invitation post to Fu Xiao, but why should you invite so many large and small clans?
If it is really as that person said, the Sheep Emperor has invited so many large and small clans almost at the same time, and even the Dragon Clan, the Snake Clan, and the Tiger Clan, who are sitting in the other three seas, have been invited, and tomorrow is the birthday of the Sheep Emperor, and the people in charge of several clans should have secretly gone to the White Emperor City.
But the only thing that puzzled me was. A small White Emperor City Sheep Emperor, his invitation is a courtesy, and they can not come to the major clans who are invited, especially those strong kings led by the North Sea, the South China Sea, and the West Sea, they can excuse themselves and not come.
What is it that makes these invincible kings come thousands of miles to congratulate a White Emperor City sheep clan who is not on the list of otherworldly races?
My God, there shouldn't be anyone who thinks like I think it's time to win over the Sheep Emperor as an ally, right?
But it's not right, they can't do it at all...... Is it difficult, is it difficult...... Some people also know about the ancient city of Phoenix?
The legend of the ancient city of Phoenix was first passed out from the ghost clan, as we all know, the ghost clan belongs to the city guard clan of the White Emperor City, the birthday of the sheep emperor, the ghost clan must go, it is because of this that Fu Xiao received the invitation post, could it be that the clan kings of the other three seas also heard what rumors......?
Yes, before Fu Xiao cleaned up the secret agents arranged by the major clans in the Monkey Kingdom in the Monkey Yu Kingdom, I had already told Fu Xiao about the Phoenix Ancient City, could it be that the news leaked at that time?
After eating, I thought about it while settling the bill and arranging where the horse went, because when I arrived in the White Emperor City, there was no need for a horse. However, the crowd was overwhelming, and I had to rely on my petite stature to move around the crowd.
Finally, according to the city defense map of the White Emperor City given to me by Bingtuozi, I squeezed to the east gate of the center of the White Emperor City, my God, there are forty or fifty guards at the gate of the palace alone, neatly arranged in two teams, and there are also side gates, and the surrounding walls are also surrounded by some soldiers and generals.
Nervously, I took out the post from my bosom and handed it to the general guarding the door.
The general respectfully accepted the post in my hand, opened it, and his expression immediately became much more solemn, "Meet the envoy of the East China Sea." ”
"Free ...... Waiver ......"
In fact, is there such a number? Salute the messenger? If Fu Xiao came in person, wouldn't they have to bend their knees and bow down?
"When you visit other countries, shouldn't it be the envoys who salute you?"
After all...... This is their territory.
Thinking so, I asked the same question.
The general obviously didn't expect that I, as the envoy of the East China Sea Monkey Yu Kingdom, would ask like this, "The envoy doesn't know, the first rule of the city management of the White Emperor City is: Those who come are guests. We should live by it. ”
After speaking, he beckoned to a general on the palace gate to show his release, "Open the palace gate and welcome the envoy of the East China Sea Monkey Yuguo." ”
After that, the solemn and heavy palace gate began to slowly open, and a group of people came out of the city gate, led by the general, who took the lead, bowed his hand to me, and shouted again, "Welcome to the envoy of the East China Sea!" ”
Looking at the lowered head in front of me, I felt a little surprised, from the time I entered this city, until now, I found that the folk customs of this White Emperor City can really be said to be simple and with lovely feelings in it.
"You're welcome."
At least on the surface...... It was peaceful. Even such a military general is far from the high-spirited appearance of Hou Yuguo, on the contrary, the application of the literati's set of etiquette will not make people feel weird, and it can also make people feel close. This also makes me more and more curious about the ruler of this city, the legendary Sheep Emperor, ...... What kind of style is it?
I also bowed respectfully to them, and the generals led by me looked at my movements in even more surprise, as if they had seen something terrible, and hurriedly made way of a passage: "Messenger, please!" ”
