Chapter 55: Looking at the Demon City

Wangdemon City, the last city in the south of Tiangu Province. The Void Forest adjacent to the Demon Clan is the first line of defense for Datang to resist the Demon Clan.

As the last province in the south of the Tang Dynasty, Tiangu Province belongs to the border province, and the distance between cities is much larger than that between cities in ordinary inland provincial cities. Tang Jin and his entourage of eight people traveled for more than a month before they crossed Tiangu Province and arrived outside the north gate of this Wangdemon City.

Standing outside the north gate of Wangdemon City, Tang Jin and the others were shocked when they looked at the towering city wall.

Tang Jin has read the history books of the Tang Dynasty and knows that this Wangdemon City, as the link between the Tang Dynasty and the demon clan, has a towering city wall, which is the first line of defense to block the demon clan. I didn't feel anything when I saw it in books before, but when he saw the wall of the Ten Thousand Demon City face to face, Tang Jin was shocked by the towering city wall that could hardly be looked up at its top.

One zhang is equivalent to three .3 meters, and one hundred zhang is nearly three hundred and forty meters, which shows that the huge city wall of this demon city has exceeded people's imagination.

The stone plaque on the gate of the north city, the obsidian is engraved with three big characters in blood red: Wangdemon City.

According to the history books, the three characters of Wangdemon City on the stone plaques of the city gates on all sides of this Ten Thousand Demon City are all outlined with the essence and blood of the demon clan's scattered immortal-level demons, which has the effect of deterring ten ten thousand demons.

Whether it's true or not, Tang Jin doesn't know.

Several people rode to the gate of the city, and those who were accustomed to their surnames were about to enter, but they were stopped by the guards at the gate of the city.

"Guys, please dismount. The city is not like any other place. The defenders also seemed to see the extraordinaryness of several people, so they spoke very politely.

After hearing this, Tang Jin nodded, did not speak, jumped off the horse, and led the horse forward. Even if Tang Jin's surname is not good, he will not trouble his own officers and soldiers in front of Hua Chonglou, an "outsider".

Seeing Tang Jin dismount, Hua Chonglou and several people also jumped off their horses and led their respective horses into Wangdemon City.

The tall city wall, the road alone is more than 50 meters, if it is not for the luminous stone hanging in the road, I am afraid that people can not see the surroundings clearly when they come in.

In the city, there are many people dressed in long shirts or tights, and more people look like sons and brothers in brocade robes, followed by several guards. Just like Tang Jin and Hua Chonglou.

"It seems that the Immortal Tomb is about to open, and there are many people who have got the news. Hua Chonglou looked at the people on the street, and his tone sighed a little.

Tang Jin and the others walked all the way, and all they saw were some young people rushing towards the Void Forest. or by themselves, or with a large number of guards.

This time, the immortal tomb was born, and it was widely spread, and the cultivation requirements must be below the foundation building period, so all the young people in the mainland regarded this trip as an opportunity to experience and compare with other young talents in the mainland.

"yes. Tang Jin nodded in response.

After more than a month of getting along, Tang Jin and Hua Chonglou are already familiar with each other, and their relationship is relatively good. At least on the surface.

At this time, Gong Lei, who was beside Hua Manlou, stepped forward and said, "Young master, prince." Today is February 19th, and there is still nearly half a year to go, and the immortal tomb will be opened, and the inn in this demon city should not be full yet, should we find an inn to live in now?"

The immortal tomb is about to open, because there are too many people coming and going, and Wangdemon City is south of the Tang Dynasty. The last city, adjacent to the Void Forest. Therefore, if you want to come to the Void Forest, Wangdemon City is an indispensable transit station. And there are too many people who came this time, and Hua Manlou is not sure if this Wangdemon City Inn is full.

After listening to Gong Lei's words, Hua Manlou smiled: "Why bother looking for an inn? Let's buy a courtyard in this Wangdemon City." Anyway, this Wangdemon City is close to the Void Forest, and I thought that the Void Forest would definitely be indispensable in the future, and buying a courtyard should be a place to rest, and it wouldn't cost much anyway. ”

In fact, these big families and sects all have certain industries in this Wangdemon City.

After all, as the southern barrier of the Tang Dynasty, the Demon City blocks the fortress of the Demon Clan, and it is indispensable for all sects and families to grasp the first time of this tip. It's just that Tang Jin is here, and it's hard to say that the flowers are full of buildings. If you say it, isn't it equivalent to telling Tang Jin, where are the nails I planted in your house?

Shaking his head, Tang Jin said indifferently: "Why bother so much? ”

"Well, it's not good. Hearing Tang Jin say this, Hua Chonglou's eyes lit up, but he said with some embarrassment.

"What's wrong? It's settled!" After speaking, Tang Jin led everyone towards the center of Wangdemon City.

The provincial capitals of the inland provinces of Datang are basically located in the center of each province, except for the border provinces on the southeast, east and west, and the provincial capitals are all on the most marginal edge of Datang. First, the largest city in each province is the most marginal city. Second, the provincial governor personally sat in the border fortress, and could make the best defense in the event of an invasion by foreign enemies.

And Bai Hechou, the governor of the lonely province on this day, was guarding in this demon city.

Outside the main gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

The officers and soldiers guarding the door stopped Tang Jin and a few people: "The provincial governor's mansion is important, and idlers are not allowed to enter." If you have something, please tell us, we will report it first. ”

Tang Jin took out the Tianlong token with an expressionless face, and said to the officer and soldier guarding the door, "Take us in." ”

"Tianlong Token!" The officers and soldiers guarding the gate couldn't help but exclaim when they saw the token in Tang Jin's hand. Then, he immediately turned his head to the officers and soldiers beside him and said urgently: "Go quickly, tell the provincial governor that the prince of Tianjiao is here!"

"Ahh

Seeing that someone had already gone in to inform the provincial governor, the officers and soldiers guarding the door turned their heads and said respectfully to Tang Jin: "See the prince! ”

Tang Jin nodded, and followed the officers and soldiers guarding the door to walk inside.

The prince of the Tang Dynasty Tianjiao came out of Dingtiandu and went all the way south, and the news that he was going to the immortal tomb of the demon clan has been spread. When the gatekeeper saw a young man holding a Tianlong token and wanted to see the provincial governor, he naturally knew that he had gone all the way south to Tang Jin who had come to this demon city!

Bai Hechou, the governor of Tiangu Province, is calm and intelligent, good at the management of the art of war, and his talent is also extremely high, and he is deeply favored by the emperor, so he was sent to this side of the province to be the governor and guard the southern gate of the Tang Dynasty. If the governors of the thirty-six provinces of the Tang Dynasty are all the emperor's henchmen, then the governors of the three border provinces are even more confidants.

The governor of Biansai Province is different from the governors of other inland provinces: The governor of the inland province can only be regarded as the eyeliner arranged by the emperor in the provinces, while the governor of the Biansai province has the power of life and death over the province! When encountering some things, such as discovering that the city lord of a certain city has committed a crime and the crime has been killed, as long as the evidence is sufficient, he can be beheaded first and then played! The governor of the inland province is on an equal footing with the city lords of the province, so if Yang Yaoyan had not had Tang Jin by his side, he would never have dared to be so arrogant with Tang Liang. The governor of the province of Biansai is completely one level higher than the introspective city lord!

Therefore, the governor of the province of Biansai and half of the interior heard the footsteps of Suosuo from inside, and then a young man trotted out with a group of soldiers.

The young man who took the lead opposite had a stern and indifferent face, without a trace of expression. Wearing a white robe, with a jade belt wrapped around his waist, a high crown on his head, a white face and beard, but the two slippery hair on his temples are snow-white. After seeing Tang Jin, the calm eyes only brought a trace of fluctuations, but his face was still that cold, and he walked not far from Tang Jin, and said with his hands and half-kneeling: "The governor of Tiangu Province, Bai Hechou, I have seen the prince of Tianjiao." May the prince live forever. Blessing and heaven. ”

"May the prince live forever, and be blessed with heaven. The people around followed Bai Hechou to ask Tang Jin for peace.

"Alright, get up. Tang Jin looked at this Bai Hechou and knew that he was born so cold, so he didn't care.

Bai Hechou led everyone to get up and replied, "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”

"Thank you. ”

Don't look at Bai He's sad face, it's just a young man of twenty-seven or eighteen years old, in fact, his real age is already more than a thousand years old! It's just that the innate qualifications are excellent, and the cultivation is fast, so that he can maintain such a young appearance.

As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Jin deliberately investigated the file of Bai Hechou, the governor of the lonely province on this day, and learned his qualifications: Ice Spirit Root, eight and a half qualifications.

Everyone walked to the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, and Tang Jin sat on the main seat as a matter of course.

Bai Hechou stood aside and did not sit. Hua Chonglou and the others saw that the master's house was not sitting, so they did not sit either. Everyone took to the side.

He took a sip of the freshly brewed tea on the table, then glanced at everyone and waved his hand casually: "You guys sit down, don't be polite." ”

"Yes. ”

Hearing Tang Jin's words, Bai Hechou arched his hand, sat down in the first position on Tang Jin's right, waved his hand, and asked the officials who followed him to sit down with him.

Seeing Bai Hechou sit down, Hua Chonglou smiled slightly, sat in the first position on Tang Jin's left, and sat down behind Tang Jin with the people who followed.

"Chonglou, you should also know this Bai Provincial Governor, so I won't introduce it. Seeing everyone sitting down, Tang Jin first looked at Hua Chonglou and said, then pointed to Hua Chonglou, and then turned his head to Bai Hechou and said, "This is the young master of the flower gate of Penglai Immortal Palace, Hua Chonglou." ”

"The flower is less than the master, and I look up for a long time. Bai Hechou hugged Hua Chonglou and said hello.

Seeing Bai Hechou greeting him, Hua Chonglou had his signature smile on his face again: "Long admiration, Bai Provincial Governor, Chonglou has never heard of your name in the sect domain..."

For those who can be used, Hua Chonglou never stingy with his smile.

Seeing Hua Chonglou like this, Tang Jin pursed his lips slightly and continued to drink his tea.
