Volume 1 Chapter 374 Sophia Soyo
Two mountains and a city, this is the best description of the landform near the Thousand Caves City. In the mountains on the east and west sides of the Thousand Cave City, one is the famous Thousand Cave Mountain, and the other is formed by the meteorite fall at the end of the Henglong Era, and the name directly uses the name of the meteorite - "Amogut", so this mountain range has always been called the Amogut Mountains.
When Ren Tianxiang and the others entered the city, as Shiyi said, the inspection of the guards was very strict, even stricter than when they passed through Fengcheng. Even if Shi Yi took out the special pass issued by the Heart City, the soldiers guarding the gate still carefully checked the five people and made sure that they were willing to let them into the city as the pass said.
After moving away from the city gate, Ren Tianxiang looked around to make sure that there were no people around, looked at Shi Yi with a calm face, and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Shi Yi, this pass order ...... I'm afraid it's not that easy to get, right?"
Ren Tianxiang had heard of the pass order of the Dragon King Empire, this thing was very different from the pass usually used, as could be seen from their names, one was a proof, while the other was an order. In fact, the Pass was issued by some high-ranking officials in the Heart City, allowing those with the Pass to pass through most checkpoints in the Empire without being checked, without any fighting.
"Well, it's true that the pass isn't that easy to get. Shiyi nodded, and admitted it very calmly, it seems that as long as it is not directly related to their master, this Shiyi is very talkative, "It's just that my master has the authority to sign the pass, and this pass is what he gave me."
However, it is a pity that long before you left Star City, Thousand Caves City was already under martial law, and the intensity of inspection was greatly increased, even if the master gave us a pass, it would not have much effect.
Of course, you are human beings after all, and although we have a pass with relatively high authority, it is difficult to guarantee that we will not be stopped here in Thousand Caves City. That's why the Lord signed the pass under pressure to ensure that you can pass through the Thousand Caves. With the assurance of your master, even if you are found to be human, the guards will not be in such a danger to you. β
"Your master seems to be very interested in this. Ren Tianxiang pretended to be careless and said, but he was still trying to get some news about their master from Shiyi, "You also said that your master is not Ling'er's aunt...... I don't know anyone in the Dragon King Empire, so I'm afraid Mr. Shiyi isn't lying to me, right?"
"It's a pity that what I said to Ren Gongzi is true, our master is indeed not His Royal Highness Xiao Ruorao. Shiyi kept a smile on his face and said without changing his face, "But my master has a deep friendship with Miss Xiao, and this time he is so attentive to you because the master wants to meet you." β
"See me?"
Shiyi nodded, and said noncommittally, "The master really wants to meet you." According to him, you are the old man after that. But that's all we can reveal, and even I don't know the rest. β
"After the deceased?" Although Ren Tianxiang expressed doubts about Shi Yi's words, he had already set off a monstrous wave in his heart.
After the deceased, among his relatives, there is only one person who has come to the Dragon King Empire, and that is his father! Could it be that the master of this Midiewei will help him because of his father?
It's not impossible to have this possibility, his father can even make a deal with the Fifth Dragon King, and the status of the owner of this Mi Diewei is definitely not as high as the Fifth Dragon King, and it is also very possible to become friends with others.
"But if I'm not mistaken, the inspection in the Dragon King's empire is getting more and more tense, and you are acting so aggressively, isn't your master afraid of being discovered by the Dragon King? When the relationship between him and his old man is discovered, I'm afraid your master will ......."
"The matter that the master sent us to escort you is confidential, so naturally we can't let a few Majesties know about it. Shi Yi explained, "Because something happened some time ago, the master is now being grounded, so His Majesty Odins' supervision of the master will be relaxed a lot, and we will have a chance to come out of the heart city."
However, because of that old man, His Majesty will never allow the master to see you. For this reason, only one-third of the Midiewei have come to escort you, and the remaining two-thirds remain in Heart City to cover our whereabouts. β
"I see. Ren Tianxiang nodded clearly, and then asked, "Your master just wants to meet me, and there is nothing else?"
"That's all. "Maybe the master will help you achieve your goals, but that's all to be discussed after you meet." Ren Gongzi, although I should not say this in my capacity, I still want to explain to my master - we are full of kindness to you, and I hope you can trust us. β
"You've all done us so much, so naturally we have to trust you. Ren Tianxiang replied with a blushing face and a heartbeat, and then immediately changed the topic and asked, "Mr. Shiyi, what if...... I mean, what would happen if our whereabouts were known to the Emperor of the Dragon King Empire?"
Shiyi glanced at Ren Tianxiang, and his eyes seemed to reveal a deep jealousy: "My master will be dismissed from his post at the least, and exiled from the family as an official." And you ...... Your Majesty may not kill you, but you will never want to see the world outside of the Heart City.
So Ren Gongzi, please keep this matter a secret. If not for my master's sake, but for yourselvesβI don't think you want to be imprisoned in Heart City for the rest of your life, do you?"
"I see. Ren Tianxiang nodded solemnly, "You can rest assured, even if we are arrested, we will not confess you." β
"That's not it, since the master is willing to help you, then we are all in the same boat. As he spoke, he looked around and said, "My men have come in and are now in the city to replenish supplies. Ren Gongzi, when are you going to leave Thousand Cave City?"
"Tomorrow morning, let's rest in the city for the night. Ren Tianxiang still didn't tell Shi Yi his decision, even if Shi Yi had already shown their kindness in front of him, he still didn't want to believe Shi Yi like that.
"Okay, I'll take you to the inn. β
Walking out of the street where they were, Shi Yi wanted to turn right, but unexpectedly saw that the street that was about to pass was full of people.
The citizens of Thousand Caves stood on both sides of the street, as if they were to welcome someone in the middle of the road. They all looked out into the streets to the south, and from the direction they were looking, there were constant cheers and cheers.
Approaching the human wall, he could feel the enthusiasm of the citizens, Ren Tianxiang could even see some of these citizens holding flowers, looked at them carefully, and found that they were violets.
"Mr. Shiyi, is this what happened?"
"I don't know...... This avenue is the way out of town. Shiyi shook his head blankly.
Ren Tianxiang looked inexplicable, while Shiyi grabbed a passer-by and asked, "Lao Jia, is this someone to welcome?"
"You're from the north, right?" the passerby looked very excited, "The empire's Northern Frontier Army has been officially established, and today is the day when the generals of the Northern Frontier Army pass through Thousand Caves City, and I heard that Princess Sophia was personally appointed by His Majesty as the marshal of the Northern Frontier Army...... Look, they're coming!"
Following the direction of the passerby's point, he could really see that at the corner of the street, a group of cavalry on war horses was slowly walking towards this direction.
Behind the cavalry, a woman on a tall war horse followed them. The woman was dressed in armor like dragon scales, a light armor that wrapped her tall and delicate body so tightly that the armor would not affect her movements at all. Her spear hung from the horse's armor, and her hand held the reins in one hand and rested on her thigh, making sure she could hold the spear in the first place.
The specially designed helmet showed her delicate face, but even when she was surrounded by all the people, there was not even a smile on her face, only cold as ice, which was in stark contrast to the bustle around her.
However, I have to say that this princess is indeed beautiful, and to be awarded the post of marshal, she must have extraordinary ability, strength and appearance are first-class, no wonder she is welcomed by so many citizens.
The first time he saw this Princess Sophia, Shi Yi took Ren Tianxiang's hand and shouted in a low voice, "Ren Gongzi!
Ren Tianxiang looked confused, why did he suddenly let them go? But he wanted to do it for his reasons, so he called the three girls to leave the street together.
What they didn't know, however, was that Sophia's eyes were on them before they left.
Until after they left, Sophia kept an eye on the street they had left.
The adjutant seemed to notice Sophia's abnormality, so he stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness, has something happened?"
"Nope. Sophia shook her head slightly, "It's just that I met an acquaintance." β
As she spoke, she seemed to remember something, and then instructed the adjutant, "Send someone back to Heart City...... Let my father check the presence of Midiewei......"
As she said this, Sophia seemed to remember something again, and continued to add: "If you can, you can send someone to the northern city of Thousand Caves City to ask if there is anyone from the north today...... Well, it's possible that you still have a pass from Heart City. β
"Yes, Your Highness. The adjutant took the order, and then stepped back to complete the task given to him by Sophia.
As she walked across the street, Sophia slowly glanced in the direction Ren Tianxiang had left, then chuckled and whispered, "Human? β
