258 Imperial Capital

Eric apparently also had a gentlemanly thought of Angel, and even stopped patrolling and accompanied Angel around the city. Angel was obviously very fond of this handsome, tall and polite knight, and the two walked side by side in the street, smiling and getting along very well.

But Li Xiang felt that this Eric was very unpleasant, and he didn't know if there was indeed a problem with this Eric, or if he was unhappy when he saw a stinky man soaking his daughter. However, Li Xiang didn't say anything, just watched coldly to see what the hell this Eric was going to do.

Eric is not only a very personable person, but also very considerate, led Angel to go around for a day, not only to see all the places worth seeing, but also relaxed, to see Angel tired immediately to rest, to see Angel hungry to take her to the restaurant, so that Angel not only had a good time, but also did not feel uncomfortable, the whole day was in a very good mood.

When it got dark, Eric introduced him to the most exclusive hotel, paid for the lodging first, and then made an appointment to go on the road with him tomorrow, and left without hesitation, without trying to stay and spend the night together. This made Angel have a better impression of him, and even slept with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

However, after Eric and Angel broke up, Li Xiang quietly paid attention to him with his eye of the sky, and found that after this guy returned to his bedroom, he drew an unknown picture on a piece of paper, and then stuffed it into a copper ball. A decorative painting on the wall was removed to reveal a thicker brass pipe. Eric threw the ball of copper from the wall and slid down the pipe with a clanging sound. I don't know where to slip.

This is a difficult problem for others, and it is certainly impossible to know who is behind it through this brass pipe. But Li Xiang is different. Before the copper ball could slide out of the big copper pipe, he had already found the tail end of the big copper pipe. What made Li Xiang also admired it was. The length of the large copper tube is very long, more than ten miles, and it always maintains an inclined angle, so that the copper ball can roll smoothly along the copper tube.

When the copper ball slides out of the copper tube and falls into a wooden spoon, due to the weight of the copper ball, the wooden spoon sinks, triggering a mechanism and causing a bell to ring. Hear the bell ringing. An ugly, dirty, smelly old man who was in charge of digging out the sewers came up, opened the copper ball, took out a note from it, stuffed it into a small paper tube without looking at it, tied it to a pigeon's leg, and let it go.

The pigeons in this plane are also different from Earth, not only in size. And the beak is also curved like an eagle, and it looks very fierce at first glance. However, the pigeon's instinct to find a home is still the same, and after flying, it turns twice in the air. And he flew south.

Li Xiang couldn't help it this time, although his heavenly eye could cover a range of five hundred miles, but the distance of the pigeon far exceeded this distance. Even if Li Xiang followed him for five hundred miles, the pigeon still did not arrive home. Li Xiang let Angel out of his sight, and could only watch the pigeon fly away without knowing where to go.

Li Xiang returned in vain. But it's also certain that this Eric definitely has bad intentions. It's just that he doesn't have any evidence, and if he dares to slander Eric in front of Angel, I'm afraid that not only will it not work, but it will be counterproductive. So Li Xiang simply didn't say anything, he was confident that as long as he was there, Angel's personal safety would be no problem, at most, he was deceived by his feelings.

The next morning, Angel woke up early and spent an hour dressing herself before packing her bags and waiting for Eric to pick her up. And Eric didn't disappoint her, showing up outside the hotel on time. Angel saw him coming at the window, leaned out happily, and beckoned to Eric. Eric looked up at Angel and smiled like a sunny one.

Eric helped Angel carry the salute to the comptoir, the convoy was ready and about to leave, and they arrived just in time. It's just that what makes Li Xiang strange is that the people in the merchant house don't seem to be surprised by Eric's arrival, as if he was originally with Angel.

Angel is not a novice either, and after discovering this detail, he obviously had doubts in his heart. But she didn't say anything, and still smiled at Eric like a little girl in love, amused by his jokes, and always pestered him. I have to say that Angel's acting skills are really good, even if Eric approached her with a purpose, he was still a little dazed by her bright smile, and he didn't notice Angel's psychological changes.

The carriages were on the road, and this time the convoy of the comptoir was larger, with more than thirty carriages in front and behind. Angel sat in the carriage that was supposed to be the leader of the convoy, and Eric rode a white horse to follow the carriage, talking and laughing all the way, but it was not lonely. It's just that three days after leaving the city, when passing through a wilderness, a group of robbers with fierce expressions suddenly jumped out and tried to rob the goods of the trading house.

The merchant house had been walking this road for many years, and was familiar with the situation on this road, and the leader of the convoy could see at a glance that it was a group of rogues from outside. A person like the captain generally has nothing to say, so he can only fight. And there were many guards accompanying the car dealership, who were not afraid of these robbers, and the two sides immediately confronted each other. But then Eric suddenly said, "Wait! Although I have resigned from my position as the commander of the city guard, this gang of rogues obviously did not come today, and I was not aware of the appearance of these people, it was my dereliction of duty, so let me deal with it. ”

Seeing that Eric Ken took the initiative to take responsibility, the leader of the team naturally had no reason to be unwilling. Although they have guards, once a fight breaks out, the guards will definitely be injured, or even disabled or killed, which needs to be compensated by the firm. But Eric took the initiative to take over the matter, and no matter what happened to Eric, it had nothing to do with the comptoir, so the leader of the team immediately agreed.

Angel saw that Eric was nosy, so he naturally wanted to stop her, but Eric was very determined, patted her on the shoulder comfortingly, reassured her, and then rode alone between the two sides and said, "Where did you come from?" Any idea where this is? ”

The leader of the robbers laughed arrogantly, "You don't know where we came from, and I don't want to know what this place is. Little white face, I advise you to be nosy, it's just a matter of losing your life, if you leave two scars on your face, you won't be able to seduce those young ladies and young women in the future! ”

Eric snorted coldly: "Just with you, you can't hurt me a single hair!" Since you are stubborn, don't blame me for being rude! ”

As he spoke, he drew his sword from his horse and urged the horse to rush over. The robbers on the opposite side did not show weakness and shouted to meet them. However, as soon as the two sides fought, the robbers, who were overwhelmingly numerous, became ravaged lambs, and Eric rode and clashed back and forth in the crowd, killing his opponents.

This scene made Angel and the people in the trading house dazzled, but they didn't expect Eric, a little white face, to have such a clever martial arts. Even Li Xiang nodded secretly when he saw it, no wonder Eric became the commander of the city guard army at a young age, and he really had real talent and learning, and he actually reached the level of a sixth-level martial artist.

Eric went into a big swing and took down all the robbers, but he didn't kill any of them, but only incapacitated them. Then he put his sword back into its sheath, turned his horse's head around and returned to the convoy, and said to the leader of the convoy, "Can I trouble you to stay here for a day?" Then send someone back to the city to inform the city lord of what is happening here, and let the city lord send someone to bring these robbers back. ”

Seeing that Eric was so powerful, how dare he disobey, the leader of the convoy nodded again and again: "No problem, I'll send someone back." ”

After arranging the trivialities, Eric returned to the carriage, and Angel immediately made a look of adoration at the right time and said, "Eric, you are so amazing!" With your martial arts, you're good enough to be a general, right? When you come back from the Imperial Capital Demon Martial Academy, you will definitely be more powerful and promising! ”

Eric smiled humbly and said, "My martial arts skills are far worse than those real generals, and I will be proud if you praise me like this." ”

Showing his strength, Eric's charisma is more radiant, and the relationship with Angel is more intimate. Li Xiang looked at their adulterous appearance, and could only shake his head secretly. These two guys are not only extremely beautiful, but they are also powerful actors, but I don't know who wins or loses in the end.

After the lord of the city sent someone to take the robbers away, the convoy continued on its way. This time it was much calmer, and there was nothing wrong with more than ten days of walking. It's just that when passing by a big city, Angel was once again inadvertently seen by a gentleman and wanted to rob people. But Eric pulled the other aside and whispered a few words, and the gentleman actually died down. This made Angel even more suspicious, but he still just asked casually, and stopped asking after being perfunctory by Eric.

After hitting the road again, another month passed, and finally arrived in the imperial capital. Before you see the walls of the imperial capital, both sides of the road become lively, with an endless stream of pedestrians, restaurants, hotels and so on. When he saw the city walls, Angel was even more amazed. The walls are 100 meters high, which is taller than many skyscrapers, and the thickness of the walls is unexpected. Walking into the city gate is like entering a cave, and if it weren't for the blazing torches on both sides, I am afraid that I would not even be able to see the road clearly.

Once in the city, Angel was amazed by even more. Since the city wall can be built so high, there is naturally no problem in building tall buildings. Looking at the rows of high-rise buildings along the roadside, Angel feels like she has returned to Earth. Except for the special architectural style, it is not much different from a modern city. And the surging and crowded crowds on the street made people who had just entered the imperial capital at a loss. But this does not include Angel, she has seen a lot of crowds of this level, and she has long been accustomed to it. Still, she was fascinated by the variety of goods in the street shops.
