Chapter 14: The City Wall

The towering city wall is like a giant dragon stretching for thousands of miles, and thousands of arrow towers up to dozens of zhang high on the city tower stand up, like thousands of giants standing on the towering city wall.

The moat that stretches for thousands of miles, on which there is a rope bridge that can accommodate thousands of people, a red copper gate about 100 zhang high, sword marks, knife marks, axe marks, and claw marks, like a war scar that remembers the long history.

Ye Chen stood under this ancient city wall, looking up at the tall city wall that was as high as a hundred zhang, like a heavenly city, and surrounded this prosperous capital with a vast terrain like a dragon, and couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"What's the matter, are you stupid....." Lan Qingyi on the side looked at Ye Chen's round eyes with dark and clear, sunny pupils, and a shocking expression on his delicate face, he unconsciously covered his mouth and smiled softly.

It took Ye Chen a long time to react, looking at the ancient city wall in front of him, which was more majestic than Zhiyue City, standing under this tall city wall, as if looking at the shocking momentum of an ancient giant.

On the ancient and tall city walls, the war left cruel traces, even after tens of thousands of years, like a general who will not die in a hundred battles, still exudes a sense of suffocating depression.

"Let's go...."Looking at Ye Chen, who was still looking up at the towering arrow tower on the city wall, Lan Qingyi hugged the little fox in his arms, jumped up and walked on the rope bridge on the moat, and turned back to Ye Chen to show a naughty grimace.

It wasn't until Lan Qingyi walked on the rope bridge that after a long time, Ye Chen came to his senses, picked up the little beast under his feet and walked forward.

The river was turbulent, like a giant dragon, flowing under the rope bridge, and the surface of the river was rippling, but there was no ripple, and it surged into the distance with a suffocating aura of power.

Ye Chen thought that after experiencing endless dangers in the mountains and forests, and not being afraid of the power of nature, he let walking on the rope bridge and looking at the turbulent ancient river surging under his feet like a giant python without a ripple, but with a terrifying flowing power, he unconsciously felt a little soft under his feet.

Looking at Lan Qingyi, who was walking on the rope bridge in front of him, he turned his head from time to time, and his beautiful eyes showed a look of watching a good show, Ye Chen was suddenly a little depressed.

On the hundred-zhang wide giant river, the thousand-meter-long rope bridge swayes, but it is like an iron lock across the river, linking the two banks.

Sure that this rope bridge built of sunken wood, which has stood for thousands of years, will not accidentally break due to the weight of two people, Ye Chen took a deep breath, and in Lan Qingyi's surprised eyes, he quickly ran on the rope bridge, but reached the opposite bank in a moment.

"Huh!"

Several soldiers guarding the city gate were attracted by the interesting fearless behavior of this frightened teenager on the rope bridge, and a soldier-looking, young general in silver armor, looked at this little guy with a smile.

"Brother Gu! This is my junior brother.... Ye Chen!" Lan Qingyi chuckled and walked in front of such a handsome young general, greeting with a sweet smile.

"Your junior brother is really interesting....." The young general looked at the simple wooden tent leaning aside to build a soldier's rest, and on the wood, the handsome young man who kept spitting out rough breath had a faint smile in his eyes.

"He is timid, he was scared by a tiger in the mountains and forests the day before yesterday and crawled on the ground, if I hadn't been here, I'm afraid this timid guy would have been eaten by a brute beast!" Lan Qingyi said with a smile that seemed to be true and fake, invisibly dispelling the vigilance of a dozen soldiers stationed near the city wall.

"You little girl, you didn't return last night, so I thought something was wrong, but I didn't expect to bring back a junior brother. "The young general is not an ordinary soldier, stationed in this ancient city that extends in all directions, he is extremely meticulous, and he knocks on the side.

"Brother Gu, did a few injured warriors enter the city a few days ago....." Lan Qingyi skillfully avoided the topic of the young general, leading the question to another matter.

"Yes, those soldiers returned in the middle of the night, all of them were seriously wounded, saying that they had met a high-level Warcraft in the Warcraft Mountain Range, and they were almost wiped out, if it weren't for some secret protection, they would have died in the mouth of the Warcraft......" Saying this, the young general paused for a moment and said: " However, although they had the intention to hide their injuries, several of my brothers still saw the clues, and when I arrived, I saw that these people's hidden injuries were not like they were attacked by demonic beasts, but like they were injured in a fight, but now it is the Cloud Palace Immortal Wizard Apprenticeship Ceremony, and here is a complex terrain on all sides, mercenaries, spiritual cultivators, martial cultivators, and rich merchants from all sides, so I didn't pay too much attention to them, and let them in....."

"What's the matter, is there a problem with those people...."The young general's tone paused, and his warm eyes stared at the beautiful woman in front of him with a touch of brilliance.

"Big Brother Gu is really a qualified general, Qingyi just mentioned it slightly, you just hold on .....to it" Lan Qingyi showed a mischievous and cute expression, as if he was making fun of this outstanding general who had guarded this ancient capital for decades.

The young general felt a little bitter in his heart, when he wanted to gain something from this proud woman of the sky, but he never thought that a pampered eldest lady would have such a close mind, and he would erase his silent inquiry without revealing any traces.

"You are an important person personally ordered to be protected by the city lord, if I neglect you, I'm afraid that if my uncle doesn't reprimand me, that little girl in Ling'er will also trouble me, okay, please...."

The young general reluctantly let the two of them enter the city easily, this genius woman is a figure who is personally taken care of by a royal prince who is far away in Beihai, even if there are some flaws, it is not easy to interrogate too much with his identity.

"Let's go......"

Lan Qingyi pulled Ye Chen, who was still a little pale, and walked into the Ancient Phoenix City.
