674 Books Capital

There are still some differences between the suburbs of the war-torn city and the slums on the outskirts of Haiyuan City, and the first trouble for Zhou Shu and his party is the guards.

Liberty Eagle is a fairly smart person, this is Zhou Shu's first impression of her. Not to mention other aspects for the time being, in the matter of slaying dragons, if the dragon is the kind of animal that once appeared in the real White Moon Country, and not a monster created by Asuka, then she will become a real hero and pass on to future generations.

In the subsequent contact between the two, Liberty Eagle talked about this topic. She went to slay the dragon single-handedly, and she didn't bring any messy supplies. She knew very well that her combat power came from Dinglan in her hands, and Dinglan had a miraculous effect on dealing with dragons, but for the sake of safety, she still pulled a group of companions.

In the hill camp where the samurai gathered, she used some time to incite and persuade a few warriors with average combat effectiveness, and then found a razor, which was known for its destructive power, and picked an appropriate opportunity to take the team out of the dangerous place of the hill, which is very admirable.

The weak warriors became her magic potion, and the razor was her pawn, and they were in charge of everyone else. The plan went very smoothly from start to finish until the razor's knife was cracked by the dragon scales.

In this unknown city, Zhou Shu originally wanted to find a place where idlers gather to eavesdrop on their chats as before, so as to understand the situation in the vicinity. Unfortunately, it was probably because of the foolish way of lowering the placket that Liberty Eagle had just done to attract the attention of the patrol guards.

Zhou Shu didn't actually plan to do anything conspicuous, but he had brown hair now, and it was rare that he didn't have to cover his head, which was already very conspicuous to him.

No matter where the guards are placed, they are guarded against outsiders. It's like a community security guard to keep people out of the crowd.

The two men were clad in old leather coats and carrying tool bags full of bits and pieces of weapons. Holding the short sword at his waist, he walked up to Zhou Shu and claimed to be a guard.

Although the outfits of the two are similar, the styles are completely different. I don't know if these are the same uniforms. In other words, the guards here do not seem to have fixed clothing.

This is unthinkable in the White Moon Country. However, it is normal for the army to not have a fixed uniform, and it is enough to wear a badge to show your identity. As for the guards, this kind of thing walks among the people, and it is not the kind that draws swords at the same time when they see different badges

Profession, it's still strange that there is no uniform.

Master Zhou was asked about his identity by the two, and he honestly said that he was an overseas visitor.

"Hai?" said one of the guards, "I don't think I've heard the word for hundreds of years, how many years have you been in the Southern Plateau." Your accent sounds as pure as I do. โ€

"Pure accent?" the other guard, who spoke in a distinctly strange tone, looked puzzled, "He's obviously speaking with the North Plains accent from my hometown, and it's the first time I've heard you joke." โ€

Zhou Shu slapped himself in the face in frustration. I just came here, and the first time I came into contact with someone, I was cheated by this pit father's translator.

While the two guards were talking, Zhou Shu made a retreat gesture to the girls, and the three disappeared from the guards in the same style. It's still a little too early to see the guards, Zhou Shu didn't even ask the name of this city clearly, and being interrogated a few more words will inevitably make people suspicious, and it would be bad if he was forced to do it.

The three of them were moving extremely fast. But in this densely populated suburb, I still walked around for a long time. Before they could spin themselves around, the trio finally stopped in an apparently newly built shantytown.

Where the guards were encountered just now, there were some wooden houses with decayed teeth scattered nearby. It is a shack made of several pieces of wood and rags and blankets.

Judging from the cleaning process of the blanket, it seems that it has not been stained for a long time, and the fluff can still be seen. If it had been hanging here all year round, it would have been as shiny as plastic sheeting.

"This is supposed to be a refugee camp for refugees. Liberty Eagle whispered.

What she said should be true, there are such shacks nearby, and the people who live here are more and more sad. Some of them had horse-drawn carriages parked by their huts, but there were not a single horses to be seen.

Zhou Shu pricked up his ears and listened a little to the conversation of the nearby residents, most of whom were talking. After the war spreads, will the city lord open the city to contain him? From these conversations, Zhou Shu learned the name of the city. The western capital of Wangcheng ......

This battle has come to the royal city?! This is the capital of the West Country?!

Master Zhou was a little depressed, he felt that he should have come a few days in advance. The land of the West feels like it's at the end of its rope.

If he had followed his plan for the coming of the Messiah, this existential autumn might be the best chance for him to emerge. But the problem is that he doesn't know how much strength this western country still has left, and whether he can make a large-scale counterattack with his help, and then counterattack and occupy the eastern country in a short time. If not, then it is not interesting for this savior to be inappropriate, Zhou Shu felt that he might as well help the country of the east and destroy the country of the west, and then find an opportunity to replace the king of the country of the east with a summon.

Replacing the head of state and the ruling class with summons is also one way to do this. However, the summons themselves only look similar, and they can't even write the words of this world, so it can be said that this is basically a last resort in expediency, and it is a plan that will only be carried out when there is really no way.

Praying for the national fortune of the West Country, Master Zhou's ears found a family that had no money to buy food to feed the children and the elderly, where the housewife was forcing her man to go next door to borrow food, and the man said some push-and-hold words, to the effect that the family was not rich, but it could be heard that this guy did not want to borrow it because of face problems.

After this kind of person starves him twice, he will naturally think about the situation clearly. Don't talk about borrowing, dare to steal, this is human nature, and Zhou Shu feels that the same is true for himself.

He didn't plan to see the head of the family become a thief, pulling out a sack of pistachios and going to get close to the family.

He also wanted to give some serious food, but unfortunately he didn't.

Zhou Shu touched the head of the little girl in the family like a strange uncle, in fact, the girls were thirteen or fourteen years old, they looked a little like monkeys, and their hair was greasy and greasy to the touch, and they felt that they were taking advantage of others, literally rubbing oil.

Rub your hand full of oil on the sack containing the pistachios. He took out a large handful of them and handed them to the little girl. Zhou Shu's behavior attracted the attention of other parents, and Master Zhou pretended to be panicked, saying that he was just a passerby. Seeing the little girl sullen and trying to amuse her.

Naturally, the parents didn't think this explanation was convincing enough, so they pulled their own girl behind them.

The little girl wears a long dress. He was wearing a dirty brown vest. She put the pistachio in her waistcoat pocket, tried to eat one, and then couldn't stop eating.

This kind of doing is obviously not in this land, and the parents reprimanded the daughter who ate the suspicious character's things, and then wanted to drive Zhou Shu away. Zhou Shu was already an expert in getting close to others, and when he saw his parents slapping the dried fruit to the ground, he didn't pretend to be insulted at all.

"It's a specialty of my hometown, and now the sea is gone. I can't go back home, and I won't allow you to insult these nuts!"

As he spoke, he grabbed a few of them, peeled them off, ate them, and forced the parents to taste them, as if they would never give up until they heard the word 'delicious' from their mouths.

Eventually, the parents agreed with the taste of pistachios, admitting that they were food and not some other mess. Zhou Shu gave them the whole sack, looking like a cool guy with no brains.

Master Zhou is very clear that all ethnic groups think that the overall IQ of those foreigners who are good at acting is relatively low, and strictly speaking, people of all ethnic groups think that the wisdom of their own nationality is higher than that of others.

At this time, he also followed the trend of others. Pretending to be paranoid to be almost there, I finally succeeded in finding a good target that I could carry out the 'I ask you to answer' activity.

The family who received food as a gift and solved their urgent needs did not mind talking to the foreigners in front of them. They are also thinking of receiving more gifts from them.

Zhou Shu learned from the conversation that it had been a week since the city called the Western Capital became what it is now. The family, who had fled from another city a week earlier, had been on the run for a month, and had seen four cities breached, one a week at a time, as punctual as a serialized weekly comic.

During the month of their flight, all of the family's possessions were scattered or sold, as were most of the families living nearby. Originally, every family had horses to pull carts full of things, but now even the horses are sold for food. Only the empty cart was left standing near the shack.

Obviously, after spending a week in the Western Capital, they feel that the capital of this country is about to be breached. Zhou Shu has reservations about this. If the country was saved, he wouldn't mind intervening. Let the manga be out of publication for a while.

Upon inquiry, good news soon emerged. Nishinokuni is currently planning to move its capital, and a large army is escorting relics, nobles, scholars, and some craftsmen and craftsmen to flee the city, while on the other hand, the army is going all out to attack the low-level enemy.

"Today, there are armies out of the city to fight, and I don't know what the results will be. But I heard that there are two guardian gods in the army, the god of love and the god of water, so they should be able to defeat their opponents, right?"

Master Zhou watched the two adults say such a second grade, and it felt amazing. He was also not afraid to hit these two people, saying that the army's ambush was discovered by the enemy's horses, and the battle was not completed, but successfully blocked the enemy's attack.

The family's expectations for the war were very low, and they didn't ask Zhou Shu why they knew about this situation, but only said that it was a good thing to be able to temporarily make the enemy retreat.

When Zhou Shu asked about the battle situation in the West Country, the male owner of the family talked eloquently, saying that the West Country actually still has the power to fight, and their sun god is also killing the enemy's patron saint. As for the army and the city, there are many more in the country of the west, and it is not a big deal that the country is captured.

Hearing this, Master Zhou was relieved. From the conversation, he also learned that the royal capital is currently closed and no one is allowed to enter, fearing that an enemy will poison it and set fire to it to cause chaos.

After confirming this information and saying goodbye to the family, Master Zhou sneaked to the city wall with two girls, and casually crossed the city wall to stun the guards into the royal capital.

For the people of this world, the power of the warriors is basically irresistible. Not only did these people have no way to cultivate, but even their physique was a little worse than that of the White Moon Country.

Nattie was already trying to complain about the average height of the men here, while Liberty Eagle was asking Zhou Shu if he had any plans.

"No, anyway, let's wait until this city can't be defended. โ€

Zhou Shu intends to be a savior, but there is only so much he can do. If the enemy army has tens of thousands. He could not have destroyed it on his own. All he can do is cooperate with the decapitation operation and take the head of an enemy general or something. I think that with such merits, it should be OK to have initial contact with the ruling class of this country. Before that. It's better to learn more about the world and prepare for the contact. Don't look too bad to make people suspicious-

When the sick princess became queen, the work required increased dramatically. There are not many things that need her to see and make decisions on official business, mainly because there are more activities to participate in and people to meet.

This kind of thing is more torturous for her. She wanted to use her precious time to deal with something more tricky, like the problem of the new land.

Beidi is now in no trouble, and the Duke of Beihai doesn't seem to be ready to make any moves for the time being after being troubled by the dragon. The battle between the minor lords he provoked was also settled by Midali's team.

In a letter to the sick princess, Midali recounted her work and reported the battle damage. As a mercenary group that had participated in many battles in the Defeated City and survived in a relatively complete manner, the loss of their 20,000-strong army was only seventy or eighty people.

Armies and soldiers who had never been on a real battlefield had basically no ability to resist. Most of those who died had died of illness on the way, and had been reported dead by Midali, hoping to get some silver coins out of the princess's hands.

In the letter, Midali still addresses the sick princess as Princess Xiร , which is enough to prove that the letter traveled for a long time on the road to reach the capital.

The sick princess is very strange, although Beihai is some distance from the central region, it will not be so long. The letter was dated sixteen days earlier, and Midali could tell in the tone of the letter that she was confident that the princess would still be a princess when the letter arrived.

Unfortunately, this self-confidence has failed. The sick princess wasn't worried about something going wrong with Midali, she wanted to know. What exactly happened on the way to deliver the letter that made the letter so late.

The messenger to the Grey House was not from the Midali Army, but from a woman. If it weren't for the official seal on the letter, the letter would not have reached the hands of Her Majesty the Queen.

Now the sick princess is busy preparing to receive some religious people. Thinking about how to refuse the requests that the gang was about to make. There is no doubt that they are always asking for constantly. As for meeting the messenger, there really wasn't much extra timeโ€”

It has been three days since Zhou Shuchu arrived in the Western Capital, and during these three days, Master Zhou has controlled a gangster gang in the city.

He was also unlucky, and on the first day of his stay in the city, he was surrounded by a group of hooligans. It was basically routine for him, with two female bodyguards there, and he didn't even need to do it himself. I subdued these hooligans.

These people are not as cute as Kernan, of course, but they can help provide a place to live. And definitely better than Kyernan's little house.

At this time, Master Zhou had just woken up, and Nati and Liberty Eagle were sleeping in the other two beds in the same room. It's a spacious longhouse. It's the kind of room where there are many rooms that can be partitioned for people to live in. Zhou Shu now occupies a long house of about 100 square meters, which is relatively luxurious.

The girls were still sleeping, and after hearing Zhou Shu's movements, they forced themselves to get up. Liberty Eagle is a person who prefers to sleep in, and this is one of the freedoms she yearns for.

Obviously, she now belongs to the status of a wage earner, and she must follow the schedule of her boss and the company.

Zhou Shu took out the water and washed his face very casually, preparing to go to the public bathroom for a turn. There are bathhouses in this city, but they love to be cleaner than the people of Baiyue Country, which is very impressive.

Baiyueguo has similar service facilities, but it is aimed at high-income groups, not ordinary people.

As a city in a state of war, there are not many shops that can still operate normally, and the baths are one of them. After all, as a bath, all you need to consume is hot water.

The two girls have no chance to enjoy the bath, the thing is only for men, the woman wants to clean her body, and the cat slowly wipes it at home with a cloth and hot water, which is from the country's sexism.

The baths are a place where it is easier to find out interesting things than taverns, although the scared thugs have revealed a lot of information about the country, such as the king's intention to lead his troops to conquer in the near future, and the suitability of moving the capital is still in the plan, and it is not certain that it will be implemented. One of the most terrifying is that the sun god hangs.

The image of the sun god, the main god of the West Kingdom, is a bird, which is relatively acceptable to Zhou Shu. Throughout the major ancient civilizations, whether it is Egypt or China, it is the birdman who rules the sun. The bird of the West Country had lost contact with his followers in the last few days, and the power of the sun god could not be felt in the temple.

Zhou Shu didn't know what the believers here could feel, but in short, it didn't seem to work now. This situation is completely different from what Zhou Shu heard in the suburbs, and the family in the suburbs was still looking forward to the sun god killing the patron saint of the enemy country, and now it seems that they have been killed.

There is also information about the relocation of the capital, and the answers given inside and outside the city are also very different, which is very strange.

Due to too much ambiguity, Zhou Shu decided to search on his own, and the two girls were ordered by him to stay at home for the time being, so as not to encounter unnecessary trouble. (To be continued)
