Qin Hao and his entourage worked non-stop, and finally rushed to the edge of the Nu River before nightfall, and the opposite side of the river was Haiyun City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Nu River stretches for thousands of miles, and the rolling river is surging away, and the waves are magnificent and endless.

Haiyun City is built on the Nu River, there are many trading ports on the riverside, countless ships are sailing back and forth, trade is developed, and the daily transaction volume is above 10 million Qi Gathering Pills, which has brought a great promotion to the development of Haiyun City.

Compared with land trade, maritime trade costs are lower and more goods are transported, and Haiyun City has established friendly trade with many port cities along the Nu River for a long time, and many special products between cities are transported back and forth.

On the Nu River, a magnificent bridge has been built across both sides of the river, with a width of 100 meters and a length of thousands of meters, like a bridge connecting the two sides of the Nu River.

Legend has it that this bridge was built by the Great Qin Empire when several legendary Ten Rank Transcendent Saint-level sages moved mountains and reclaimed the sea.

Such majestic bridges are only capable of being built by the Sages.

Qin Hao and the three of them came to the other side of the river along the overpass, and Haiyun City was close at hand.

As far as the eye can see, there are tall and majestic city walls, all of which are inlaid with a kind of mythril, reflecting the light of the sun and the moon, and are brightly lit at night.

Mithril is a rare metal, when forging weapons and swords, as long as a little bit is mixed into it, it will make the sword sharp, and it can even automatically absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, change the quality of the sword itself, and finally become a spirit soldier in the depths of the year.

Every tael of Mithril can be exchanged for an equivalent amount of Qi Gathering Pill. There are even places where Mithril can be used as a common currency instead of Qi Gathering Pills.

But now, the walls of the entire city of Haiyun City are inlaid with Mithril.

In the depths of that formation, there are powerful spirit stones, which make people feel rich and inviolable, just look at the formation cast on the city wall, and the idlers can't make trouble in it, otherwise the people inside will casually shoot out a formation, and they can kill people on the spot.

The roads around Haiyun City, like a spider web, extend in all directions, the roads are wide and flat, on both sides of the road, there are clear springs circulating, and there are even some fountains, blooming on the road square, the whole city inside and out, built like the scenery in the painting.

However, the strong commercial atmosphere and intricate smell were still secretly scattered in this city, Qin Hao sniffed lightly, and felt that there were some resentments in the air, which was caused by someone being assassinated and framed.

In this city, it is not peaceful, on the surface singing and dancing, in fact, the undercurrent is turbulent.

Especially after the death of the saint, the world was in chaos, and the city lord of Haiyun City was also rumored to have died outside, and the entire Haiyun City was completely chaotic, and there were dark things of unjust death and assassination every day.

In addition, several cities around Haiyun City are also eyeing each other, and they are gathering forces to overwhelm the territory at any time.

Therefore, the entire Haiyun City is suffering from internal and external troubles at this time, and there are many crises.

Qin Hao and the three of them marched all the way along the wide road, and soon came to the front of the city gate, and found that there was already a long line of humanoids, and everyone who entered the city would be stopped and interrogated.

In front of Qin Hao was a caravan that seemed to have come to Haiyun City to trade, but it was also stopped by that group of guards.

One of the captains of the guards looked at this IQ pair coldly, and said, "The entrance tax to the city, according to the head, each person has ten Qi Gathering Pills, fifteen horses, and no matter how big or small the box is, twenty medium-grade spirit stones." ”

"What?"

The leader of the caravan was almost speechless, taken aback, and said indignantly, "Yesterday, the poll tax was only one spirit stone per person, how can it become ten Qi Gathering Pills now? This time the price has increased tenfold, and it is simply blackmail." ”

"Just today's order, the world has not been peaceful recently, and it is easy to be robbed and killed by bandits and bandits outside the city. However, it can be well protected in the city. Therefore, if you want to enter Haiyun City for refuge, you must add a heavy tax, and there is no need to negotiate. The captain of the Haiyun City guard team looked at everyone with a look at the fat sheep, as if he wanted to slaughter him fiercely, "Do you pay or not? If you don't pay, just blast it away, and when the night comes, those bandits and bandits will be infested, you just wait to be robbed."

"You ......" The leader of the caravan was angry, but he had also heard that there were bandits and bandits around Haiyun City recently, specializing in robbing caravans, and sometimes even carrying out a massacre, leaving no people and goods behind.

After a moment of silence, the caravan leader still paid the poll tax honestly.

"It would have been okay if I had done this earlier. The guard squad leader weighed the money bag in his hand, a smug smile appeared on his face, and then looked at Qin Hao and the others, "You are the same, ten Qi Gathering Pills per person." ”

Qin Hao took in all the actions of this squad leader, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but his face was silent, and he honestly handed over fifty Qi Gathering Pills.

"Oh, you kid knows each other. When the team leader saw it, his eyes lit up, and he nodded at Qin Hao with great appreciation and said, "When you enter Haiyun City, if someone asks you for trouble, report my name." ”

"Yes. Qin Hao smiled slightly, and then asked, "I don't know the name of the official?"

"I am the city lord's mansion three-rank guard with a sword. The team leader said with a proud face, "In Haiyun City, our city lord Murong family is the sky, and no one dares to disobey. ”

"It turned out to be the lord of the city lord Murong family. Qin Hao's heart moved, and he asked quietly on his face, "However, how did I hear that there has been a big incident in the city lord Murong family recently, and the city lord is ......?"

"Hmph, it's all those despicable villains of the Duan family who are secretly attacking, and the head of the family will be murdered. Hearing this, the team leader had murderous intent in his eyes and said, "But recently, our Murong family is gathering forces to completely eradicate the Duan family, and then subdue the other major families and dominate the entire Haiyun City." ”

"Hmph, in the end, with Haiyun City as the foundation, it is not impossible to open a dynasty and establish itself as a king. ”

"Oh, it turns out that the Murong family has such grand ambitions. Qin Hao sighed, and then said, "Then I am here to congratulate the official master to be able to soar and become a member of the court." ”

"You're a good talker. The team leader was praised by Qin Hao, and then waved his hand, "Go in, master, I will continue to stand guard." ”

Qin Hao saw that he couldn't continue to extract information, so he didn't delay any longer, and took Qian Wu Mu Ruxue into Haiyun City.

In Haiyun City, the streets are wide and extend in all directions, and the ground is paved with diamonds, and no matter how much a sword or sword splits, it cannot cause damage.

The streets are lined with shops, and many vendors are shouting and selling, and it is a prosperous scene.

"Three guest officers, do you want to stay in the hotel? This store has been open for 20 years, and you will receive a free night for one night. An innkeeper saw Qin Hao and the three of them in a hurry, and hurriedly walked over to solicit customers.

"We don't live in the store. Qin Hao shook his head and said.

"Guest officer, it's dark now, if you don't stay in the store, you'll have to sleep on the streets. The innkeeper immediately launched a three-inch incorruptible tongue and spared no effort to lobbied, "Don't think that if you enter the city, you will be fine. Tell you, the city has been very unpeaceful recently, the city lord Murong family and the Duan family have a hot fight, affecting the pond fish, and many outsiders have been involved in the battle for no reason, and finally ended up with a tragic death. ”

"The backstage of our Tongfu Inn is the Tong family, and there are also some forces in this Haiyun City, which is enough to ensure that you will not be implicated. It's better to act than to move, move in right now and make sure you're safe in Haiyun City. ”

"Uh......" Qin Hao looked at the innkeeper, as if he wouldn't stop if he didn't agree, and immediately took out ten Qi Gathering Pills helplessly, "We really don't live in the store." But can I ask you for a message?"

The innkeeper's eyes were immediately attracted by the ten Qi Gathering Pills, and he nodded busily when he heard the words, "Yes, yes, you can ask if you have any questions, the villain I know everything and say everything." ”

As he spoke, his hands reached out to the ten Qi Gathering Pills.

Qin Hao retracted his right hand, avoided his "snatching", and said, "You tell me first, where is the Xiao family?"

"Xiao family?" the inn guy was stunned for a moment, then a meaningful expression appeared on his face, and said, "Are you referring to that Xiao family branch in White Tiger City?"

"Exactly. Qin Hao nodded.

"What are you looking for the Xiao family for?" said the inn guy with a glint in his eyes and a little vigilance.

Qin Hao looked at his expression, and suddenly had a bad thought in his heart, and immediately took out forty Qi Gathering Pills again, a total of fifty, and handed them to him, "Can you talk about it now?"

The innkeeper showed a hint of greed in his eyes, pocketed the fifty Qi Gathering Pills, and then carefully looked around, and said, "Tell you, the Xiao family is in trouble now." ”

"Detailed. Qin Hao was in a hurry, rushed to his side, looked at him condescendingly, and said solemnly.

The innkeeper was taken aback, and his body took three steps back, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly explained, "Just now, an elder of the Murong family went to the Xiao family with a group of disciples in a menacing manner, as if he wanted to settle accounts with them. ”

"Is this true?" Qin Hao asked eagerly.

"It's true. The innkeeper did not dare to hesitate, and said, "Just an hour ago, I saw with my own eyes pass by the door of our inn. I also heard two of the disciples talking about what the Xiao family was spreading false news and asking for an explanation. ”

"Tell me, how do you get to Xiao's house?" Qin Hao immediately asked.

"Follow this street to the end, then turn right, then turn left and keep walking, and the huge mansion at the end is where the Xiao family is located. The innkeeper hurriedly said.

Qin Hao was anxious in his heart, and he didn't delay any longer, greeted Qian Wu and Mu Ruxue, and the three of them hurriedly rushed away.

The innkeeper looked at the figures of the three of them, frowned slightly, and thought of the entrustment of a disciple of the Duan family who had befriended him, turned around to find a direction, and walked away quickly.

In that direction, it is the island in the middle of the lake where the Duan family is located.
