A notice was posted at the gate of Peshawar that the siege would be lifted tonight. So in the evening, the city gate is bustling, and those who enter and leave the city are rushing through the gate to get out of the city or go home as soon as possible.

Zhang Bai was dressed as a local beggar at this time, his face was swarthy with dust and mud, his body was bloated, and his coat was tattered. Not only did he not hide from the guards, but he also lay down not far from the city gate, begging for food with other beggars.

There are the most idle people at the gate of the city, and the aura is mixed, but Zhang Bai is already a monk of the Yuanying Realm after all, and his aura is different. To cover up, he wore a white robe under a knee-length beggar's garment.

This white robe was one of the three robes that Zhang Bai had stolen from Ardashir. Its function was finally explored by Zhang Bai.

The reason why he explored this matter was because Pig Pig took a golden robe to cover two eggs, which reminded Zhang Bai that he still had two big robes, one gold and one white, and the other red robe was the bishop's robe, which could greatly improve his defense, and he had already helped himself a lot before.

Therefore, he felt that the other two should also have different functions, so he inquired with Nanhua and Daolao, and did various experiments, and finally figured out their usefulness.

The golden robe is a comfortable air-conditioned suit, which can automatically regulate the temperature, so it is likely to be worn by the sect leader when he is resting, or when he encounters extreme weather. Probably because of this effect, since the golden robe was covered, those two eggs have never been naughty again.

As for the white robe, this effect is not obvious, and it took him a lot of time to find out, it is used to cover his breath. Moreover, the white robe was short, and it seemed to be made to be worn as a undergarment.

Zhang Bai was lying by the city gate, lying down for a day, and he had already found a lot of information. For example, the number of guards by the city gate, such as the conflict between the nobles and the king, and the king's recent new national teacher.

He suspected that this new national teacher was a Shilong Daoist, so he specially inquired about the beggar next to him and learned that the name of this new national teacher was Kusu Buluo God. What kind of god it was, but I didn't find out. It is only said that this god does not believe in Buddhism or worship fire, believes in foreign gods, knows how to call for wind and rain, but is not good at medicine.

Speaking of medical skills, ordinary people are a little nostalgic for the old god Sharama. But the king has changed, and they can't help it. Fortunately, there was a fat Roman doctor in the market, although his medical skills were not as good as that of the god Sharama, but his diagnosis fee was not high, and he only charged for medicine for minor illnesses and only received consultation fees for major illnesses, so it was considered to save everyone's urgency for a while.

This must be Titus, who seems to have a good business.

Seeing that it was already evening, and the strictness would be lifted later, Zhang Bai decided to pat his ass and walk.

Suddenly, outside the city gates, several fast horses, ignoring the guards, galloped in, and the riders on the horses had shaved their short hair, and wore helmets with bright tufts on their helmets, and their crimson cloaks wrapped in silver-white armor. Zhang Bai was very familiar with this costume in film and television dramas in his previous life, and this was obviously a Roman cavalry.

Not only did Zhang Bai recognize it, but many people at the city gate also recognized it, and they were pointing and talking about it.

How did the Romans get here? It stands to reason that Parthia was to the west of the Kushan Empire, and Rome was further west, so if they wanted to send an envoy, they should go to Parthia first.

In this case, it seems that Rome has strengthened its relations with the Kushans. And by coincidence, they arrived just when Guishan changed hands.

It occurred to him that he had proposed to Nanhua and Suraj how to form a balance of power in the area between the Indus and the two rivers, and how to achieve a balance of power between the countries in the region. In his heart, he secretly named his own vision "Earth Longzhong Pair".

However, looking at the Roman cavalry in fresh clothes and angry horses, he was surprised to realize that his assumption was wrong.

In this area, there is one big guy that has not been counted, and that is Rome. The three kingdoms here are not only Parthia, Kushan and Sassanid answers. It could also be an alliance of Rome, Sasansan, and Parthia and Kushan empires.

Several cavalrymen headed towards the palace, and they were stunned by their thoughts. An old beggar next to him saw his appearance and comforted him: "Don't envy these Roman envoys, it will make you more uncomfortable, you just need to learn to accept the reality calmly!"

Although Zhang Bai felt a little out of tune, he was still very grateful to this old man. He nodded to him, then stood up and decided to leave. "You can come with us, you don't have to look for another place to stay, we can share food, how about it?"

Zhang Bai hadn't thought about getting too familiar with beggars, but since he was invited, he could see it. He didn't mind the beggar's nest being dirty, it was one night anyway. So Zhang Bai nodded silently and agreed.

The old beggar was very happy to see this, and beckoned the other beggars around him to leave with him. Before leaving, he also said hello to the guards at the city gate, and it seemed that there were old acquaintances on both sides.

Not far from the city gate, there is a stone arrow tower, embedded in the inner side of the city wall. This turret is self-contained, with its own gate and staircase, which is much higher than the city wall, and is connected to the city wall, so that it can be used for both lookout and archery during battle.

On the ground floor where the arrow tower meets the city wall, there is a small broken door in a dark corner, and this door opens on the city wall. The beggars got into the corner and knocked on the door.

The door opened, and a group of beggars and more than a dozen people poured in together, Zhang Bai didn't grab it, and slowly followed up.

It turned out that there was a hidden soldier cave inside the door, which was the standard configuration of the city defense, but the hidden soldier cave at the west gate of the Peshawar city wall actually became a beggar's nest, which shows its negligence.

And this indicates that there must be someone who is corrupt, otherwise there are so many city defense guards, it is impossible that no one will find out.

This cave is wide and long, not small, and can accommodate at least 100 people, and it is even more spacious for these dozens of beggars. It's autumn and the weather is getting cooler. There was a fire in the cave, and there were many people, so it was quite warm, and the beggars were in rags, and for them, it was a paradise.

But for Zhang Bai, it was not good, he wore two or three layers of clothes, and the white robe inside was very effective in covering his breath, but he did not have the ability of the golden robe to adjust the temperature, and soon he was so hot that he was sweating, and even his sideburns had beads of sweat.

There was a large soup pot at the fire, and there was a mixture of unknown food churning in it, emitting an indescribable smell, but to the beggars, it was the smell of food.

The group of beggars immediately pounced and took out their wooden bowls to compete for food in the large soup pot. The other beggars seemed to have eaten, and sat on either side against the wall, some chatting and some closing their eyes.

However, there were two beggars who kept staring at Zhang Bai, and their eyes seemed to be suspicious, which made Zhang Bai very uncomfortable. So he avoided the eyes of the two, found a vacant seat against the wall, sat on the ground, did not talk to others, closed his eyes and only pricked up his ears to listen.

It wasn't long before the two beggars who were staring at him came around, one of them bald, the other with a stick in his hand.

"I'm talking kid, what's wrong with you?" said the bald man.

"That's right, it's just wrong, it's very wrong!" said the crutchee.

Zhang Bai didn't answer, just looked at the two people coldly.

"Miansheng, who brought you here?" asked the bald man again.

Zhang Bai looked around for the old beggar with his eyes, but he didn't find it, which was a little indescribable, he shrank his right hand into his sleeve, clenched his fist and was ready to make a move.

You can't use weapons against these beggars.
