Chapter 19: The Storm at the City Gate

A month after leaving Shining Star City, the group with the carriage finally arrived at their destination, Stygian City.

Soon after leaving, they made Stygian their destination. Anyway, they are also walking at will, so it shouldn't be a big problem to go to such a recommended place.

So, they quickly made a decision.

However, the journey to Stygian City was not as simple as they thought.

Take this time as an example, they basically fought bandits and bandits all the way, and basically had to fight every day. On the contrary, the attack of the Warcraft seems insignificant, and how can it be compared with the huge number of thieves and robbers that can only be encountered once in three or four days.

So, I just walked all the way and played all the way, which was not a long distance, and it took a month to complete.

"Phewβ€”it's finally here, is this the only city in the Realm of Chaos where you can see the moon, Stygian Moon?"

Moving along the path leading to Stygian Moon City, when walking out of the trailhead, Stygian Moon City appeared directly in the eyes of Feng Yan and his party.

Stygian looks like a very ordinary city.

Above the city gate, there are three big words "Dark Moon City", there is a group of people on the left and right sides of the city gate to check the pedestrians, and on the city wall, there are city guards patrolling.

On the surface, the structure of the city is decent, with no strange structures.

Compared to other cities, Stygian has nothing special except for a wide moat around the city and a drawbridge outside the gate.

To be honest, looking at it this way alone, there is basically nothing special about Stygian City. In general, it is basically not very famous.

But now, it is very famous, as can be seen from the number of people who can see it at the gates. Even now, when there is no festival, the people coming and going at the city gate are crowded.

Miraculously, however, it was here that the Wind Dead saw one of the few "orders" in the Realm of Chaos. Who would have thought that in a place like the Realm of Chaos, there would be people who took the initiative to line up to enter the city?

Taking the initiative to queue up is not particularly easy to happen in many places under normal circumstances, but now, in front of the gate of Stygian Moon City, the Lords of Chaos, there are a large number of people who take the initiative to line up, and they have not yet cut in line.

If it weren't for the fact that they now knew they were in the realm of chaos, they would have wondered if they were in the wrong place.

"This city doesn't look special, but it's a lot more crowded than a city of the same size. ”

"After all, this is the only city in the Realm of Chaos where you can see the moon. ”

"Alright, let's go into the city. ”

Then, they lined up to enter the city like the others.

At first, they thought that the queue was done by the people who came to Stygian City, but as they got closer to the city gate, they realized that it was not the case.

Although it does seem to be a queue overall, everyone who enters the city always seems to have a bit of a quarrel with the gate guards. Because of the distance between them and the fact that there were so many voices in the crowd, even if they were, they didn't know what was going on at the gates.

In a few moments, they were almost at the gates of the city. At this time, they finally knew what was happening at the gates.

"Hey, why is it so high again? When I came a month ago, it was one tael, but now it's three taels?"

"Cut, Stygian is one of the most famous cities in the Realm of Chaos. This kind of famous place naturally costs a little more to enter the city. ”

"But you're too dark, aren't you! It's only been a month, and it's tripled......."

"Cut, if you don't have money, don't you come? We don't have a shortage of guests in Stygian Moon City, and we still think it's cheaper when a poor ghost like you comes here." ”

"Hmph, sooner or later, you will be punished......

After saying this, the man left with a little girl beside him. When she left, the little girl obviously looked like she was about to cry, but she tried her best to hold back.

And this scene also made them understand that there was not an inspection of entering the city, but a toll. Although there are similar incidents in most cities to enter the city and pay tolls, other places are also dead, and it will be over after a little wine money, and it is the first time they have seen it until such a high wind as three or two.

Although three taels of silver is not a lot, for some poor families, it can solve the problem of food and clothing for a long time. And just to enter the door has to be so expensive, then the consumption after that must be exaggerated.

But there is another problem here, and that is the issue of price increases. Although there are no regulations on this toll, under normal circumstances, the price change will not be too large, at most when the city gate guards are greedy, it will rise by about ten cents, which will rise by two taels in a month, which is really rare.

"Could it be that something has happened in this Stygian Moon City, otherwise why would this entrance fee suddenly become so high?"

Yueli muttered, which was heard by the person in front of her.

"Hey, didn't you change the city lord three months ago...... After the exchange, every place in this Stygian Moon City slowly became a starting price for sitting on the ground, and the prices were outrageously high...... Now, finally, the tolls have risen. ”

"And so many people are here?"

"There's no way, many people have business dealings with Stygian City, and they can't do it if they don't come. And you also know that watching the Stygian Moon in Stygian City once is a once-in-a-lifetime wish of many of us. ”

This Yueli really didn't know, but Yueli suddenly realized one thing, the moon of Stygian Moon City may not be a simple moon for ordinary people in the Chaos Lord, but may be a wish.

"Eh, brother, what you said about changing the city lord......"

"Eh, it's good to know about this, don't be talked about. Stygian City is investigating this matter very strictly. ”

The man looked panicked, but he wasn't lying.

Soon it was time for the wind to bring them into the city. Yueli didn't say anything, and directly gave the city gate guard three taels of silver, and then went in directly.

"Stop!

"A few of them were with me. ”

"Together? Then you can't get this money. ”

"Isn't it three or two? Why, you want to regret it?"

"It's three taels, but it's three taels per person, get out if you don't have money, we don't welcome poor ghosts here. ”

"I'll go, it's darker than me......"

Yueli didn't even know what to say. One person, three or two, this is really black and boundless. And if there are three taels for one person here, then have a meal or something, the menu is five taels, maybe it is five taels per person.

Although this amount of money is nothing to Wind Death and them, especially to Yueli, they don't even care about this money at all.

However, the money is not a wasted effort, and having to pay so much at once is still a little distressing for Yueli, a little money fan.

"Let's go, if you don't have any money, get out of here......"

"Then give back the money I just gave you. ”

"The money you just gave me? I didn't see it?"

"Okay, you're still cheating......"

Yueli was about to make a move, but she stopped again. 2020

Yueli is not short of money, and she doesn't care about these mundane things. However, the most unacceptable thing about Yueli is that she loses money for no reason, and it is difficult to accept the loss of a penny.

So, Yueli really wanted to beat up this guard. But she thought about it, if there was a strong force behind this guard, then they would not be able to live in peace after that.

She now regretted that she hadn't investigated the information in Stygian City first. If you know the background of the first city lord, then you can take action.

So, in the end, she still gave the money.

"Eh, don't go yet...... Little lady, this is your first time here, right? You don't know where to see in the city, right? Why don't you let me show you?"

As soon as these words came out, they all understood that this guard was interested in seeing the color. Moreover, he began to reach for Yueli's chest, and the others were also preparing to do something to the other women.

"Ahh

"Eh!"

"Whew!"

"It hurts!"

Several different voices appeared one after another, attracting everyone's attention. As soon as everyone looked at it, they found that the guards had been subdued by the wind.

They were half-kneeling on the ground, one arm spun around for a circle, and the whole hand was pinched in the hand of the wind, and their faces were full of pain, but now they could not scream.

"We really don't want to get in trouble, but you're going too far...... Even if you forget this money, you will lose it, and you still want to do something to us?

At this time, the guards on the other side and the guards at the city gate turned their attention to this side. The guards at the city gate didn't even care about the situation below, and shot directly at the city gate.

But the end result was that most of the arrows suddenly reversed direction and flew back before they could touch them, and each of them was nailed to a large character lying on the wall. One by one, the rest of the guards pierced through the left shoulder armor of the guards, pinning them to the wall one by one.

The other team of guards was directly stupid, and it was not an unusual thing for the people above to shoot directly, they had already prepared corresponding defenses. But none of the arrows eventually touched them, and the others were wounded.

In other words, these people saved them. People who have been treated like this have never been so kind to them.

The guards on the walls are even more stupid, they don't know anything, at least they count. One by one, even if they all flew back, it would not be enough for them all to lie down in big characters, and they were lying so neatly.

Then they noticed that all but the arrow that had no actual damage was pinned between their legs, and everything else had vanished in a burst of light.

Although the final number of arrows was still not right, they didn't care about it anymore. They now know one thing: those people are monks. And the monks are something that they mortals can't afford to mess with.

The guards also understood this, so they were actually panicking too. At the same time, they are also a little dissatisfied, why don't you monks fly in and go through this door, making a joke!

It's a pity that not all monks can fly, including these few. It's not that they can't fly, it's just that they haven't flown for a long time, and now they don't think they can fly.

Of course, the reason why they went through the city gate was that they never thought that the monks could enter the city without going through the city gate.

As for the other onlookers, those who were originally outside fled to the side to watch, while those inside the city stopped to discuss. Only a few of the people on the city wall who hadn't done it before were now running in a panic to report.

Look back at them from the wind.

"Say, if I don't give me any money, I won't ask for more, so I'll give us back the two hundred and ten taels. ”

"Cousin, it's not a second ......"

Before Hua Xi finished speaking, he let Yueli glare back, and then he changed his words.

"Isn't it two thousand one hundred taels?"

As soon as these words came out, the crowd was in an uproar.

"It's really dark!"

"The wicked have their own wicked grinding!"

The guards were speechless at this time, the "two thousand one hundred taels" was obviously made up by force, right? Shouldn't it be "two thousand one hundred taels" when you usually say it? Also, aren't you monks? Why do you care so much about this money!

"Say, do you want to give it?"

"Give it, give it, and my aunt will give it if she puts the small one. ”

"Then don't you play tricks...... It's pretty easy for me to clean you up. ”

"How dare the little ones, how dare the little ones. ”

So, Yueli let him go, and the man made a gesture to take out the silver, but with a wave of his backhand, he scattered something powdery.

"Haha, this is for monks...... ......"

The guard couldn't laugh anymore because he found it useless, and they even took the initiative to smell it.

"A low-quality Ecstasy incense? No, it's a little second...... It's useless to refine it. ”

The guards were completely speechless, and they knew what they were all at once. And he knew that he had been deceived, because the person who gave him the medicine said that it was a high-quality drug, the kind that even high-ranking monks were fascinated by.

Then he noticed that the woman was looking at her wickedly, and the others were looking at him with pity, and even the cute one had begun to pray.

"That's it, you dare to be so prodigal with this little ability, play with poison, right? come, I'll play with you......"

As she spoke, Yueli took out a white pill.

"This is the Nine Heavens Soul Breaking Pill, have you heard of it? The kind that can poison even gods, try it for you now? Why don't you try this?"

As she spoke, Yueli took out another red pill.

"This one is a little more common, crane top red, but it is condensed. However, I haven't tried its lower limit yet, and the upper limit can easily poison a monk in the Qi refining period. ”

The more the guard listened, the more frightened he became, and he kept backing away.

"Don't be afraid, I'm all special, they're all sweet, and they should taste good. ”

As he spoke, Yueli prepared the medicine.

"Don't! I don't!"

The guard screamed miserably, but it was more convenient to drugged. The guard only felt a sweet taste in his mouth, so sweet that he even felt a burst of happiness, and he didn't scream.

But he also realized that he had two more foreign objects in his mouth, and understood that the medicine was already in his mouth. Although he was scared, it was a bit of happiness, and he didn't have the desire to spit out the medicine.

He ate it whole, and then he despaired.

At this moment, a group of people came from inside the city.
