Chapter 944: Goal of Joining the Company (7)

When he came to this Jianghai Lingcheng, Zhang Zhongjun naturally stopped and visited everywhere. First of all, I found that the crowds were crowded, and the area of wooden houses inhabited by civilians was very large, of course, it could not be compared to Kyoto.

Then, Zhang Zhongjun discovered that this so-called city, in fact, did not have a city wall, and spread out with the tall castle as the central point.

The economy here is very dynamic, and the streets are lined with shops on both sides, spreading to the end of the sky.

Looking up at the huge castle, it is very magnificent, at least hundreds of meters high, and the bluestone foundation at the bottom alone is ten meters high, and it is still diagonally upward, and it is difficult to climb. Above is a circle of beacon towers and sentry towers, and perhaps the place inside the bluestone foundation is the real city.

However, outsiders could not enter or exit, and each thick city gate was guarded by a ticket of soldiers.

Unless there is a problem with the inside, it is impossible for an external attack to fall into a castle like this, because it is said that there are countless deep wells and fields inside the castle, and when the gates are closed, it becomes a world of its own. However, in the event of an enemy attack, the castle town outside the castle was not saved.

And looking at the prosperity of this castle town, it is obvious that there has not been a war for a long time.

However, there has been no war for such a long time, and the entry and exit of this inner city is still so strict, and the military and government that want to control this city should be maintained well.

Zhang Zhongjun glanced at the flag hanging on the sentry box, which was a family emblem, and was not in the mood to ask, so he directly found a caravan to Heyuan County, paid and left.

There is no difference from the previous caravan, but this time the mage of the caravan is an eight-rank exorcist, and the speed is also much slower, because when he stopped to rest halfway, Zhang Zhongjun's physical strength was almost not consumed, which shows that the consumption of casting spells to rush is just balanced with Zhang Zhongjun's recovery power.

And the road is no longer the national highway that is so wide that it is frightening to death, but a lead road that is only ten meters wide, but I feel that the qualification of this road is no different from the national highway, but the width has been reduced.

And Zhang Zhongjun finally knew how to cross the river, Jiang Hai led to the place of Heyuan County, there is a river several kilometers wide blocked, there are docks and boats on both sides of the ferry, Zhang Zhongjun thought that he needed to take a boat, but his caravan did not stop, and directly swished on the river across several kilometers wide.

If he hadn't noticed that his shoes were wet, he really couldn't believe that the whole caravan with people and donkeys and carriages trampled across the river like this.

There is really a set of spells for this kind of rush, and now that I think about it, I am afraid that crossing the Kyoto River is also relying on this spell, and it is difficult to maintain the integrity of the whole of Kyoto by boat alone.

However, there must be a limit to this spell, perhaps in terms of the number of people, or the width of the river, or the weight carried.

Because if there is really no limit, I am afraid that there is no need for the existence of boats, and they can quickly cross rivers with people and carriages, whether it is speed, convenience and carrying, there is a sharp advantage, if there is really no limit, what do you need to do with this thing?

There is no need for ships to march and fight and do business, but Zhang Zhongjun saw that there are many ports on both sides of this river, and the number of ships is also dense, which shows that although the spell is easy to use, there should be a lot of restrictions and costs, and it cannot be fully popularized to everyone and all affairs.

Compared with Jianghai Lingcheng, all the layouts of Heyuan County are ten times smaller, although the castle in the center is twenty or thirty meters high, and although the crowds are just as turbulent and the shops are just as numerous, it is obviously ten times less than Jianghai Lingcheng. Those who have never seen Kyoto and Ekai Lingcheng will think that it is a super city, but those who have seen it will know that it is really just a county town.

Looking at the sky, Zhang Zhongjun did not stay in Heyuan County for one night, but found a caravan that traveled before it was dark and prepared to arrive in Zijin County when it was dark, paid the money and traveled with the team.

This time, the road was shrunk again, becoming only six meters wide, and the material of the road was clearly a notch lower than that of the lead. And what surprised Zhang Zhongjun was that there were only ten carriages in the caravan, but the escort team reached more than 300 people, and the price of the hitchhiker was also several times higher than his meow, and it actually cost 3 yuan!

This made Zhang Zhongjun a little stunned, but seeing that other hitchhikers all paid the money as a matter of course, Zhang Zhongjun also understood that this was the standard price.

As for the price is so expensive, look at so many guards, look at the quality of this road, think that the safety on this road should not be as good as the collar road, let alone the national highway!

Damn, doesn't this mean that the bigger the city, the safer it is, and the smaller the place, the more dangerous it is?

Well, it seems to be the case, when chatting with guests on the road, I often hear what village and village have been destroyed by what demons, and what towns and towns have been broken by what demons, but I have never heard of any county seats, what county towns have problems.

Damn, a world full of demons and monsters, I really can't afford to hurt, it seems that the situation where I want to rise from the bottom may not be as simple as I imagined.

Because not to mention the internal strife of human beings, just like natural disasters, it is impossible to determine when the demons and monsters will appear, and it may be possible to directly destroy the forces that they have worked so hard to build.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhongjun also saw the guards of the caravan who were extremely vigilant all the way, but the mage who cast the spell was reduced to the level of a nine-rank exorcist.

It's no wonder that big cities are safe, such as Kyoto, any caravan is a seven-rank exorcist, and on the Lingcheng side, the best caravan to go to the county town below is also an eight-rank exorcist, and now the caravan from the county town to the county can only invite a nine-rank exorcist.

It's no wonder that the smaller the place, the more dangerous it is, because the high-end forces are concentrated in the big cities, and the small cities below, especially the villages and the like, are probably in a state of self-destruction.

As for the disbandment of the castle town of Zijin County before it got dark, it can be seen that when they saw the lights of the county seat, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and wiped their sweat, and it was a very celebratory thing to think that it was possible to arrive safely.

Zhang Zhongjun didn't bother to peep at Zijin County at night, but wandered around the castle town for a while, and immediately noticed that the castle town had shrunk ten times more than the county seat, but it seemed that there was no curfew here, it was already dark, there were still many people hanging around on the street, and the shops were just lighting lanterns and continuing to open for business.

Zhang Zhongjun casually found a stall to eat something, and then found a lodging house to rest.
