Chapter 37 Lindi Capital
Time is always fast, like green smoke, gone with the wind.
On the forest ground, Zhou Qilang was saying goodbye to the two spirit beasts, and it seemed that only the baby dragon was reluctant, and the fire fox was eager for Zhou Qilang to leave immediately.
Zhou Qilang shrugged his head, there were obviously a few scratches on his face, his hair was messy, and he looked aggrieved.
"Baby will miss you. The baby dragon took out the fruit he had treasured for a long time, held his head high and handed it to Zhou Qilang.
Zhou Qilang rubbed its little head dotingly, didn't take over, looked at the fire fox that was still sulking over there, and finally instructed: "Take care of it." ”
The fire fox just glanced at it and didn't speak.
Zhao Yuling watched them say goodbye not far away, and his understanding of that slut was a little different.
The wind was up, the tree-lined path was in front of him, and Zhou Qilang had to wave goodbye.
turned around, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on Zhou Qilang's body, forming a unique halo that made people feel in a trance.
In the past few years, there will be another bloody storm.
"Boy, if you can't stay in the Imperial City, remember to come back!" The fire fox looked at the back of the setting sun on the horizon, and a trace of indescribable emotion rose in his heart.
Zhou Qilang waved his arm, did not look back, and followed the female thief princess to walk on the Imperial City Avenue in the afterglow.
The fire fox and the baby dragon stared blankly, only the baby dragon waved his short hand until his back completely disappeared from view.
At that moment, the heavens and the earth suddenly became much clearer, the clouds in the sky rose and fell, and the fire fox and the baby dragon stepped on the path back to the deep forest, but the fire fox suddenly turned around.
Between heaven and earth, there seems to be an imperceptible voice: Little fox~
"Strange, could it be that Uncle Ben is hallucinating?" The fire fox turned his head, stared at his dead fish eyes in a trance, and confirmed that it might be his own auditory hallucinations, before leading the baby dragon into the dense forest again and starting their life.

In other words, Zhou Qilang followed the female thief princess, no, it should be changed to Princess Ling'er, this is what she requested, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.
The two crossed the avenue, passed by the post station, bought two fast horses, and rushed to the imperial city of Zhao without stopping.
On the way, the princess of the female thief also asked Zhou Qilang if the demon eater flower fruit she desperately snatched was still there. Zhou Qilang replied very simply that he had been refined, and then it was another bloody storm
To the east of this dark forest, dozens of miles away is the Eastern Wasteland, located in the easternmost part of this continent.
However, four of these great powers accounted for three-quarters of the entire territory of the Eastern Wilderness, and the four countries were Zhao in the west, Song in the north, Sun God in the east, and Tang in the south.
The four great powers do not share a border with each other and are separated by a myriad of smaller ones, but the vast majority of them are dependent states of the four superpowers. The strength of the four countries is comparable, and it can be said that the four countries are in full power, and they have been at peace with each other in the past ten years, and no major wars have broken out.
Because Zhao State is located in the western part of the Eastern Wilderness, bordering the Dark Forest, its capital has become one of the hub cities connecting the Dark Forest and the rest of the vassal states in the Eastern Wilderness.
The population of the city is not less than one million, and the traffic is busy on weekdays, and the country's material resources are continuously transported here from a grand canal.
Princess Ling'er and Zhou Qilang came to the capital of Zhao after seven days, overlooking the Jinling city wall, it is like an endless Great Wall, magnificent, majestic. The towers dotted on it are large in scale and magnificent.
The entire imperial city is located in the flat hinterland, with steep forests in front and mountains entrenched in the back, which is a sealed treasure land, and is not afraid of any enemy attack at all.
As he got closer and closer to Jinling City, Zhou Qilang's heart became more and more shocked, the capital of Zhao Kingdom was more and more majestic than the tallest and magnificent imperial city of the Longyang Empire he had ever seen, and he didn't know how many times more majestic!
The Jinling city wall is 18 meters high and 14 meters wide at the top. The wall is covered with green bricks, which is thick and solid, majestic and deep. On the city gate, there are city towers, arrow towers, gate towers, towering volleys, majestic momentum, majestic. Outside the city wall, there is a moat 50 meters wide and 10 meters deep.
In the distance, there are six 20-meter-high lookout towers, dotted with beacon smoke, and there are soldiers defending the city.
The main gate of Jinling City, there are six doors through, there is a great atmosphere of Liuhe, and there are heavy soldiers guarding in front.
Zhou Qilang was deeply shocked by the magnificent momentum of the capital of Zhao Kingdom.
"Slut, I'm scared, haven't you seen it? Diao people like you who came out of the poor countryside have never seen the world, hey, God has eyes. Princess Ling'er counted down one by one, eager to say that his body was incomplete.
Because, she can only move with her mouth, the seal on her body has not been unlocked, every two days, this slut will recast the seal for herself, and she doesn't even have a chance.
Zhou Qilang didn't mind that she counted herself, and then looked at the majestic Jinling Capital, thinking deeply.
In the capital of Jinling, people come and go, an endless stream of pedestrians, all kinds of shops, shops on both sides of the street, a group of prosperity.
Since Princess Ling'er entered the city, the secret agents of Zhao reported to the emperor of Zhao who had been restless in the palace for a few days, and heard that his most beloved little daughter had returned safely, and the emperor of Zhao was overjoyed and immediately sent three hundred soldiers to meet him.
When the mighty welcoming team arrived, they found that the most difficult princess of Zhao State had already made this place a mess.
The street vendors chased after her, Princess Ling'er snatched the food and ran away regardless of her image, and dared to overlord the meal on the spot without any money, I'm afraid no one would dare to do this except her.
"Little princess~ little princess~ You can make our family anxious~" The voice was soft, and an old man with a Buddha duster ran over in a hurry, beckoning his subordinates to pay the small traders.
"Father-in-law Zhao, how is my father? Princess Ling'er seemed to have had enough, and asked with some concern.
"Hey, little princess, you're back, Your Majesty hasn't thought about tea and food these days, and has sent a lot of people to look for you, even Qi Huguo has gone to look for you in person. The old man looked feminine and pretentious, holding the Buddha Shan, and the worried expression on his face was rich.
"The master also went to look for me?" Princess Ling'er's neck was cold, and she seemed to know that the trouble she had broken out was a bit serious.
"No, Your Majesty asked him to look for you, even with a bow," the old man said and suddenly stopped his mouth, glanced around a few times, and then whispered in his ear.
After a short contact, Princess Ling'er casually made up a reason, said that Zhou Qilang was a guest, and returned to the court with the welcoming procession.
The imperial city of Zhao's domestic capital is majestic, majestic and magnificent, with the air of an emperor.
Before entering the palace, Zhou Qilang untied Princess Ling'er's confinement, and he was not worried about her playing tricks, because he was confident enough to leave the imperial city.
After entering the palace, Gonggong Zhao said to Zhou Qilang: "Childe, please wait in this Qiankun Hall first, wait for me to report to Your Majesty, and then inform Gongzi." ”
"Okay, I'm tired of my father-in-law. Zhou Qilang bowed respectfully, in this huge imperial city, he still knew the way of the monarch and the minister.
Zhao Gonggong retreated, leaving Zhou Qilang alone in this Qiankun Palace, Dao Gong had already been returned by Ling'er Gong, in her words, since he entered the imperial city, Dao Gong has been inseparable from this Zhao Kingdom Jinling City.
Zhou Qilang is still a little apprehensive, after all, for so long, he has come all the way up, although it has only been more than half a year, but his heart has completely changed, he knows what he needs to do at this moment.
It is said that Princess Ling'er over there, since she entered the palace, she has not seen anyone, and she came to Xuanqing Palace early.
"Father, don't be angry, isn't Ling'er back, you see Ling'er is doing well, don't be angry. Princess Ling'er said coquettishly, she sat in the arms of the most powerful man in the entire Zhao Kingdom, that is, Zhao Xiang, the emperor of the Zhao Kingdom.
Zhao Xiang was dressed in a yellow robe, old and not losing the spirit of a king, his face was slightly helpless, but he doted on his youngest daughter's coquettish nonsense.
"Ling'er, sneaking out this time, do you know what is wrong?" Zhao Xiang had a straight face, although he doted on his little daughter, he still had to talk about it on face.
"Well, Ling'er knows, father, don't scold Ling'er, okay? Ling'er won't dare next time. Princess Ling'er swore to the sky crisply, looking quite serious, with big eyes and bones.
"Okay, okay, don't blame Ling'er, come, come to the queen mother's side. Over there, the queen of Zhao State, known as Queen Qi, patted the brocade cushion next to her lovingly, and stretched out her hand to signal her little daughter to come over.
Empress Qi, a generation of strange women, with her civilian status, step by step ascended to the highest status of women in Zhao State, although she is over forty years old, but she is still beautiful, elegant, dignified, and atmospheric.
"Queen Mother, Ling'er loves you the most, and my father doesn't love me anymore. Princess Ling'er leaned on Queen Qi's shoulder and hugged the queen mother's neck.
Zhao Xiang looked at his little daughter with a smile on his face, and asked helplessly, "Where did you go this time?"
"Ah, I forgot to tell you" Princess Ling'er suddenly became interested, and told them what she had seen and heard along the way, of course, selectively.
"Wait, Ling'er, who is that slut you're talking about? Empress Qi frowned slightly and asked.
"En, this time my father should reward Ling'er, because I brought you back a strange person. Princess Ling'er muttered.
"Strange people?" Zhao Xiang said suspiciously.
"Father, that slut Zhou Qilang is born with divine power, he can pull the bow without damage" Princess Ling'er depicted Zhou Qilang's deeds of pulling out the bow and slaughtering the fire python in a picturesque way, which shocked Zhao Xiang and Queen Qi.
"In this way, this Zhou Qilang is really a strange person, with such divine power, guarding the Dao Bow, then the world of Zhao Kingdom is not a descendant for all generations, and it will never be destroyed. Haha, this is really God bless Zhao Guo, such a strange person has been lowered, invite him to the palace quickly, I want to see this strange person!" Emperor Zhao was pleasantly surprised, clapped his hands again and again, and immediately sent someone to announce Zhou Qilang's audience.
"Xuan Zhou Qilang is here!"
The mountain call has been passed to the Qiankun Palace.
Zhou Qilang followed the father-in-law who led him to the imperial study.
As soon as he stepped into the imperial study, Zhou Qilang saw the tall and majestic Emperor Zhao who was sitting.
"Grass people Zhou Qilang knocked to see Your Majesty. Zhou Qilang bowed to the monarch and ministers, and did not dare to make a mistake at all.
"Flat. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Zhou Qilang got up and stood sideways, not daring to speak, waiting to speak.
Zhao Xiang's face sank like water, and he said coldly: "I heard that you once stole my national protection artifact, are you guilty?"
"The grass people are guilty. Zhou Qilang's face turned green when he boarded, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
