Chapter 372: Returning to the North City
Because Beigui City is located on the northern border, it is the closest city to Luoxue City, the only passage of the Honghuang Continent and the Mixed Yuan Continent, so its status is very special.
Beigui City does not belong to any of the Seven Ancient Families, it belongs to the city directly under the jurisdiction of the Star Stone Society.
In the Mixed Yuan Continent, there are only a few special cities that are directly under the jurisdiction of the Star Stone Society, and everyone knows that the Star Stone Society actually represents the will of the Pavilion Elders, and is a unified institution and force of the whole continent outside of the Seven Great Families.
Luo Yingfei, the city lord of Beigui City, is the leader of the northern part of the Star Stone Society, and the primary cultivation of the Star Stone Society is that the Star Stone Society has an army of 1,000 people in the North Return City, all of which are above the cultivation of the Blossom Realm, and the main purpose of this army is to prevent the people of the Demon Realm of the Flood Desolate Continent from invading through Luoxue City.
The northern border has heavy snow all year round, it belongs to the extremely cold land, and the place where the Honghuang Continent and the Mixed Yuan Continent are connected is a mountain peak tens of thousands of meters high, such a mountain peak is not something that ordinary people can climb, and it must be above the mature realm to be able to fly at such a height, and at the same time be able to resist the extreme cold on the top of the mountain.
Where the two continents are separated by mountains, there is a long and narrow valley, and this valley has become the only passage between the two continents, and Falling Snow City is located on the side of the mixed yuan continent of the valley passage.
It can be said that the Falling Snow City, people below the mature realm, do not want to cross the Great Snow Mountain and enter the Flood Continent.
Ye Jian felt that it was better to try his luck in Beigui City first.
Ye Jian entered Beigui City and came to the largest inn in the local area, Beigui Inn.
"Guest, accommodation?"
Xiao Er greeted him attentively.
"Well, give me an upper room. ”
"Okay, one gold coin per night in the upper room, pay a deposit of 2 gold coins first. ”
Ye Jian took out three gold coins and put them on the counter, and said, "Little second brother, you can arrange a few dishes for me with this gold coin, and send a pot of wine to my room." ”
Xiao Er hurriedly nodded and said, "Guest officer, you can't use so much money alone, at most half a gold coin is enough." ”
"It's okay, the more you will be tipped for. ”
When Xiao Er heard this, his face immediately bloomed with joy.
Xiao Er led Ye Jian in front and led Ye Jian into the upper room on the second floor.
"Guest officer, wait a minute, I will arrange the wine and food for you immediately, and you will be satisfied. ”
After Xiao Er left, Ye Jian took a look in the guest room, it was clean and comfortable, facing the street, and you could see the lively pedestrians on the street from the second floor.
After a while, Xiao Er walked in with a three-tiered basket and placed the food and drinks in it on the table in the room.
Crispy pork ribs, braised lion's head, steamed sea bass, spiced beef, a plate of seasonal vegetables, a bowl of pearl white rice, and a small pot of wine.
The room was full of aromas.
Xiao Er smiled and asked, "Guest officer, look, are you still satisfied with these dishes?"
"Satisfied, satisfied. ”
Ye Jian smiled, and put a piece of crispy pork ribs in his mouth, it tasted really good.
"Guest officer, you use it slowly, call me at any time if you have anything. ”
Xiao Er prepares to exit the room.
Ye Jian put down his chopsticks and said, "Little Er, I happen to have something and want to ask you about it." ”
"What's the matter?"
"I heard that Falling Snow City has been locked down, is there still a way to enter the Flood Desolate Continent?"
When Xiao Er heard this, his face changed, and he hurriedly walked to the door to look left and right, then quickly closed the door and whispered.
"This guest officer is from out of town, right? Falling Snow City has been locked down for almost three years, and only local original residents can enter and exit with identity cards, and no one from outside is allowed to enter Falling Snow City. ”
"I heard that Falling Snow City is the only passage connecting the Flood Desolation Continent and the Mixed Yuan Continent, and now that Falling Snow City is closed, isn't the communication between the people of the two places broken?"
"Huh!"
Xiao Er suddenly chuckled twice and looked at Ye Jian.
"Guest officer, do you want to go to the Flood Continent?"
"Oh, little second brother, it's not a secret, my father used to do business with people in the Flood Desolate Continent, and after the closure of Snow City two years ago, he could no longer enter the Flood Desolate Continent, but my father sold a large number of goods on credit to the merchants of the Flood Desolate Continent, and we couldn't get the payment back for this closure. ”
"My father was in a hurry, fell ill in bed, didn't I want to do my filial piety and help my father go to the Honghuang Continent to collect debts, but, Luoxue City, I can't enter, hey, I'm just chatting with you, and I don't expect to find any way out, alas, our family is unlucky. ”
Ye Jian let out a series of sighs.
"Little second brother, come, sit down and have a drink. ”
Xiao Er excused himself and sat down with a big grin.
When Ye Jian saw this situation, he knew that there was a play.
This is just like Ye Jian's smuggling and smuggling in the previous world, no matter how strict the border blockade is, there will always be smugglers, and the wisdom of the people is unlimited.
After the Star Stone Society slaughtered Ling Hai's family last time, Ling Qi took revenge in anger, but she didn't kill ordinary people, she only killed dozens of high-ranking people of the Star Stone Society.
The killing between the high-ranking of the two ethnic groups did not cause panic among the ordinary people, and those who traded and did business would still try every means to break through the blockade and enter the desolate continent.
Trade between two peoples is inevitable, and this is true in all ages.
The reason why Ye Jian is looking for the inn's junior is because the inn is full of people every day and has a lot of information, as an inn, he must know some information about smuggling and smuggling.
Ye Jian immediately poured Xiao Er a glass of wine.
Xiao Er picked up the wine glass, drank it all, and then smiled mysteriously at Ye Jian: "If you really want to think about Falling Snow City, I really have a way." ”
When Ye Jian heard this, he quickly took out two gold coins from his pocket and put them on the table.
"If you can really help me find a way to enter the Flood Desolate Continent, I will give you a hundred gold coins on the day it is done. ”
Xiao'er was stupid immediately, his eyes widened, Mom, a hundred gold coins, what kind of little second is Lao Tzu, go directly to open an inn, and no longer have to suffer from the boss's bird anger.
The more the child thought about it, the more beautiful she became, and a silly smile appeared on her face.
"You, wait for my news, and within three days, I will find a way for you. ”
Xiao'er was full of smiles, and suddenly lowered his voice again, and said solemnly: "However, now that the Star Stone Society is cracking down, you must pay attention to secrecy, don't be caught by the people of the Star Stone Society, that is a matter of losing your head." ”
Three days later, Ye Jian was reading a book in his room, when Xiao Er knocked on the door and came in.
Behind Xiao Er stood a man in a black cloak, whose face could not be seen clearly.
Xiao Er entered the room, immediately closed the door, and then said in a low and mysterious voice: "Guest officer, I helped you find it." ”
"Oh, so fast!"
Ye Jian put down the book in his hand and glanced at the person in the black cloak.
The man seemed to be deliberately covering his face, and Ye Jian only saw a pair of sharp eyes.
The man in the black cloak suddenly spoke: "Entering the Flood Desolate Continent, the cost is 10,000 gold coins, can you be willing to pay?" (To be continued.) )
