Chapter 10 Yingdu

The city wall is 100 zhang high, and all of them are made of huge bluestone! The city wall stretches endlessly, and you can't see the end at a glance! The city wall is lined with flags and is heavily guarded! Every other section, there are arrow towers, watchtowers, and so on!

This is the west gate of Yingdu, there are five city gate holes, and the middle one is as high as 120 zhang! The height on both sides is 90 zhang, and the highest one on both sides is 60 zhang high! The city gate tower above the city head is as many as seven layers! There is a huge stone plaque above the city gate, which is engraved with the character "Ying" in a strong and powerful seal body, and the character is painted in conspicuous red.

The one hundred and twenty zhang city gate in the middle, only the king of Chu and the people authorized by the king of Chu can walk, and the ninety zhang gate on both sides is used by officials of a certain level. The sixty-zhang city gates on both sides are the passages of ordinary civilians, and the crowd has already lined up in a long line!

The tall city gate slowly opened, and hundreds of guards methodically checked the city!

In the sixty-zhang high civilian passage, the crowd queue is distinct, and you can see at a glance that 369 is coming. Instead, people who entered the city consciously lined up to enter the city according to their clothing and the level of wealth and poverty. This is not an official rule, but it is only because the richly dressed people are reluctant to stand in line with the poor, and the poor people at the bottom do not dare to come to the side of those "masters". Those who walk through this door, the more wealthy and powerful, can choose to take the car and do not have to queue up with those in the lower classes.

On the driveway in the middle of this city gate hole, the horse-drawn carriages and ox carts coming and going are all in accordance with the rules of rutting, pulling people to pull people's lanes, and pulling goods to pull goods, driving slowly in a regular manner. Vehicles with a licensed waist plate can be exempted from inspection, while vehicles without a licensed waist plate must stop for inspection. On the driveway, there is also a specialized occupation of people, carrying a manure basket, responsible for cleaning up horse dung and cow dung on the lane in a timely manner.

On the whole, compared with Suicheng, Yingdu is like a giant and a baby! No wonder the shopkeeper in Suicheng couldn't help but show a look of pride and pride when he talked about Yingdu! This magnificent city was indeed the greatest miracle he had ever seen in his life!

Chu Qing was shocked for a moment, and sighed again and again, and someone behind urged: "Hurry up, hurry up, everyone behind is waiting!" Chu Qing confessed his guilt, and followed the people in front of him into the bottom line, and there were shirtless village men in front of him.

Chu Qing moved forward with the team, and the voices of the two people in front of him were a little familiar.

"It's a pity, that kid was such a thief last night!"

"Yes, yes, otherwise, otherwise we can make a lot of money!"

"It's a pity, it's a pity, now he only has a piece of that, he must still have it on him!"

Chu Qing tilted his head and touched it, and there were two or three people in front of the team, and he saw a fat man and a thin man, both of whom were shirtless. Listen to that accent, look at this body shape, it is the two who robbed me last night! However, the piece of spell silver was given to them voluntarily by Chu Qing, and although they later had bad intentions towards Chu Qing, they did not cause substantial harm to Chu Qing after all.

Chu Qing thought about it, and he didn't plan to bother with them. Stand up in a proper manner, follow the group and move slowly, and that's it.

It took a long time before he finally moved to the city gate.

Just as Chu Qing was looking around at this majestic city gate, there was a little commotion in front. It sounded like the fat man's voice: "Master Jun! This is really my money! Really! I exchanged all my family property for it! It's really not stealing!"

When Chu Qing heard this, he saw a heavily armed city gate guard, with a straight face, holding a spell silver in his hand, and scolded the fat man: "You dare to quibble? You are a country man! How can someone exchange the curse silver for you? Besides, wouldn't it be more convenient to exchange all your family property for silver and bronze shells? How could you exchange it for such a spell silver that is difficult to redeem? I see that you either stole it or robbed it! Come on, take the two of them away for interrogation!"

After the city gate guard finished scolding, the two deputies behind him immediately stepped forward, regardless of the fat man and the thin man's shouting of grievances, locked them up and escorted them away!

Chu Qing reached out and touched the belt around his waist, and the hard pieces of curse silver inside seemed to be hot. What can I do about this? Look at this posture, you will be unlucky! Or ...... U-turn and leave?...... No, it's too obvious, as soon as something happened in front of me, I immediately turned around and left, and I will definitely be suspected!

Chu Qing moved forward slowly, thinking about countermeasures. However, there were only two or three people in front, and the luggage was very simple, and it was quickly checked, and it was Chu Qing's turn.

"You, come here!" the city gate guard called Chu Qing.

Chu Qing was so anxious that he was sweating down, but he also had to take a step forward, he was going to die! He was very nervous! Maybe people are easy to be quick when he is nervous, Chu Qing suddenly had an idea! With a quick wipe of his right hand on his waist, he squeezed out a piece of curse silver from the belt and hid it in the palm of his hand, and then pretended to be very surprised and shouted: "Big brother, do you remember me, big brother!" As he spoke, he stepped forward and held the hand of the city gate guard tightly! The spell silver in his palm was secretly sent over!

Chu Qing also had no choice but to gamble, hoping that this city gate guard was not a rigid person.

The city gate guard was stunned by Chu Qing's shout, and subconsciously shook off Chu Qing's hand, and said, "You!" Then he felt that there was something in his hand, and secretly glanced at it with his eyes, good guy, a piece of curse silver from Bai Huahua! Immediately coughed dryly, and changed his words with a smile: "Isn't this my brother! Why are you here! Hurry up! Go quickly, let's go together when I change the value!" As he spoke, he took the curse silver sent by Chu Qing into his arms without a trace, waved Chu Qing into the city gate, and said to the back: "Next!"

Chu Qing hurriedly and politely clenched his fists and said, "It must be, big brother, you are busy first!"

After passing through the 100-meter-long city gate hole, you will enter the capital of Chu State, Ying.

To the east of Yingdu, is the world's largest Daze, Yunmengze, to the south, adjacent to the first river, Yingjiang, to the north, to look at Wushan, to the west is Yicheng and Jiuyi Mountain. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and Yunmengze is a huge gathering place for aquatic monsters, which can be described as the richest place in the world!

Not to mention anything else, just looking at the roads in the city, all the roads in the city, whether they are streets or alleys, are all paved with bluestone, and they are extremely smooth! There are special people who sweep the roads all the year round, and even the ruts on the roads are clean! Not to mention the others, even if the years of war have consumed a lot of national strength, the prosperity of Yingdu is still considerable!

There are many shops on the street, and all kinds of flags and signboards are dazzling! Rice shops, oil shops, salt houses, silk villages, pawnshops, inns, restaurants, noodle shops, green houses, teahouses, and pharmacies...... There is everything! Pedestrians of all kinds rub shoulders on the streets, disturbing one after another! The cries of selling along the streets are heard one after another!

Chu Qing hadn't seen a prosperous world before, but he was still very shocked at this time! This city is really too great, it is really unbelievable that such a city can be developed in such a backward era of productive forces!

What makes Chu Qing feel the most interesting is that he saw a lot of people in ancient costumes! I had been mixing at the bottom before, everyone was in tattered clothes, similar to beggars, but now I saw many neatly dressed ancient costumes at once, and he suddenly had a feeling of breaking into the filming site of a costume drama!

Chu Qing stood on the side of the street in surprise, and people kept passing by. Some people who thought they were superior glanced at Chu Qing with disdainful eyes, threw down a sentence of "hillbilly" or "old hat", and walked away.

Chu Qing heard those people in ancient costumes say this about themselves, but he was not angry in his heart, he only felt a little happy inexplicably, and couldn't help laughing.

So someone else commented: "It turned out to be a fool." ”

Chu Qing didn't care, grabbed the arm of a passer-by casually and asked, "Excuse me, how to get to Wushan Academy?"

The passer-by wrinkled his brows and glanced at Chu Qing, impatiently broke free of Chu Qing's hand, and said, "Wushan Academy Palace is naturally in Wushan, go out of the city, and go all the way north!" After speaking, he turned his head and left.

Chu Qing thought about it, no, didn't Ji Ming say that the school palace election was in the capital? Could it be that I remembered it wrong? Chu Qing thought about it carefully, it seemed that Ji Ming really didn't say anything about the school palace, and only mentioned the school palace election...... Why don't you ask again! The tone of the guy just now sounded like he was in a bad mood!

Chu Qing grabbed another passer-by and asked, "Lao Jia, where is the election of Wushan Academy Palace?"

This time, the passer-by was a warm-hearted person: "Keep going, keep going, it's still far away, you can inquire while walking! Hey, the young man's ambition is very high!" he glanced at Chu Qing, and saw that Chu Qing only had a pair of tattered pants full of patches on his body, and couldn't help but pout, "Work hard, young man, but don't have much hope! The school palace election is not something that can be ...... casually" After saying this, he shook his head and left.

Chu Qing thanked him loudly, thinking in his heart, it seems that the school palace election is indeed in the city, let's go, go and take a look!
