Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Imperial Capital Comes
In the evening, the landslide and the fire were finally extinguished.
On the hillside.
"You bastard, dig me out quickly, and next time you use this trick, I will definitely fight with you!" The hapless Luo Tian was crushed under the falling stone, while his sisters Luo Hong and Hua Long were constantly moving the stone.
On the other side of the hillside, that is, in the direction of the destruction zone, the poor bandits were completely burned into roast chickens, and many of them wailed and wailed. In the rocks, Kate and the short man fell together weakly and snorted, judging from the burnt clothes and heads on their bodies, the experience must have been very exciting.
At this point, Hua Long's one-year experience of going out is finally over, and they can officially return to the academy after sending them to Dijiang Prison tomorrow.
The next day, Dijiang City.
It is a small city located west of the Imperial City, with a population of more than 10,000 people, and like most small towns, there is nothing special, but the low walls and the moss attached to them may bear witness to the long history of the town.
Today, there are two big names in the small town, one is the dean of the Royal Military Academy, Balu, and the other is Ensen, the instructor of the academy who guides martial arts.
Dean Balu naturally needless to say, a national treasure-level old man like him can cause a huge repercussion anywhere. And Ensen beside him was a very dignified elder. The white robe was loose and luxurious, the thick and snow-white beard hung down to the chest, and the wrinkles on the face could hold the soybeans. But there was an astonishing glint in those sharp eyes.
He is Taishan Beidou of Imperial Martial Arts, and he is also Hua Yun's mentor. Most of the people in the empire respectfully call him the Sword Emperor.
The luxurious carriage they were riding in drove into Dijiang City without encountering any obstacles.
"Will the boy you're talking about show up?" Enson's eyes closed as if he was pondering.
Unlike the white-robed mentor Ensen, Dean Balu was wearing a standard aristocratic dress today, and he said confidently, "Yes!"
Speaking of which, he looked outside the carriage through the window, the streets of Dijiang City were very depressed, which formed a strong contrast with the prosperity of the capital Cold Moon City.
There's a reason why Dean Balu came to find the mysterious boy this time. First of all, he was entrusted by His Majesty, and His Majesty the Emperor asked him to find the young man as much as possible and give him a corresponding reward, of course, His Majesty also hoped that the young man could join the army and contribute to his strength; secondly, Dean Balu had his own plans, he wanted to bring this young man back to his academy, and exempt him from all tuition fees so that he could study hard.
It's just that Dean Balu didn't know that this young man was actually the eldest son of the Count of Aonuo's family, Hua Long, who he accused of misconduct and refused to go to school four years ago.
"Do you think there is any basis for that?"
Dean Balu said with a confident smile: "I have analyzed him, and from the information, I am afraid that the purpose of this young man is to eliminate all the bandits near the capital of the empire. Oh, by the way, Mentor Ensen, why are you here?"
Of course Ensen wouldn't believe that a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy could wipe out all the bandits around the capital in a year, but he did! That's why Ensen came with Dean Baru.
He wanted to meet this mysterious teenager. If he could, Ensen wanted to take him in as a disciple.
And from Mentor Ensen's words, Dean Balu naturally heard some clues, and immediately smiled faintly: "Mentor Ensen, don't be too greedy, don't you already have a disciple of a martial arts wizard?
Dean Balu is naturally referring to Huayun!
"Hua Yun, is it indeed a very good child!" Tutor Ensen nodded with satisfaction, and it seemed that he knew that he was very satisfied with Hua Yun's performance.
"How are you preparing to participate in the royal competition? Hua Yun represents our academy this year!" Dean Balu was naturally very concerned about this matter.
Ensen suddenly laughed, and said in a somewhat mocking tone: "How can you say that, Hua Yun is not the only one who represents the academy, according to what you said, if Hua Yun can't win, then the responsibility is all on me?"
Dean Balu laughed too.
"Hua Yun, this kid has good talents, and he is also very diligent in his studies, judging from his current strength, there is absolutely no problem in winning this imperial competition!" Mentor Ensen looked very confident about winning.
"That's good, after all, our Imperial Royal Academy wins the annual royal competition, which has also become a highlight when our school recruits students, so we can't lose no matter what!" Dean Balu was obviously full of confidence in Hua Yun.
The carriage traveled some further distance into the city, and it seemed that it was already very close to its destination.
"By the way, how can you be sure he's going to be here, and it's been a few days?" asked Mentor Ensen.
"Intelligence!" Dean Balu chuckled: "Because there is intelligence that the last bandit group near the capital, Feiyun Village, should be hiding near Dijiang City, and the local judicial department has no record of taking the bandit leader Kate into custody, so I think that young man will definitely arrest him in the judicial prison of Dijiang City in the next two days." ”
Mentor Ensen didn't ask again.
The judicial prison in Dijiang City is located in the central part of the city, and since there have been few bandits lately, these soldiers on errands appear to be listless
Dressing, some sit in front of the prison door playing cards and bragging, and some simply fall asleep directly against the porch, how comfortable and comfortable such a small day is.
For them, this is the real peaceful and prosperous era!
The arrival of Dean Balu immediately caused quite a stir, and soon they met the lord of the city, Baron Winkel, in the reception hall of the judicial office.
After explaining his intentions to the baron, the thin and capable baron immediately described the mysterious boy with a river of words. Because there had been a lot of bandits near Dijiang City before, Baron Winkel happened to see it when the mysterious boy caught the bandits before.
While talking and discussing, the baron's butler ran in from outside, "Master, the bandit group of Feiyun Village ......"
In the next moment, before the butler could finish speaking, Mentor Ensen had already stood up: "Has he been eliminated?
"Yes, here, just outside!" replied the butler.
On the street of Dijiang City.
Hearing that the last bandit group near the capital had been wiped out, the local residents immediately ran out, some with food, some with gifts, although these things were not valuable, but people still wanted to thank the mysterious boy for everything he had done.
Because of his relationship, there is no need to worry about bandits, and people can finally live with peace of mind!
So, in a short time, the not very spacious streets were crowded with people who had come to thank them.
In the face of the warm welcome of the residents, Hua Long was immediately a little embarrassed, on the contrary, Kate and his subordinates were also "welcomed", but these welcomes were made up of stones and rotten eggs.
As for Luo Tian and Luo Hong, they didn't enter the city, because they had already said goodbye to Hua Long and said that they were going to practice, so they agreed to meet later.
At this time, the soldiers in front of the judicial department were also busy, and they were still very energetic for this kind of occasion that attracted the attention of the residents, and solemnly took the rope that tied Kate and his group, and the officer who took the lead directly handed over two thousand gold coins to Hua Long.
This is Kate's bounty for a third-degree wanted criminal!
At this moment, Dean Balu and Mentor Ensen also walked out of the judicial office quickly: "Young man, please stay!"
