Chapter 121: Imperial Sphere of Influence
Seeing that Fang Kuo, who was seriously injured and unconscious, was carried away and disappeared into the darkness, Dugu Yun wiped his bloodstained hands on the ground, although he violently beat Fang Kuo's low emotions and vented a lot, but the emptiness was getting bigger and bigger.
A little pride will not change anything, the difficult and dangerous road ahead is still very long, and there is no hope in sight!
Shan Xie stepped forward and said, "What, is it more and more annoying in my heart?"
Dugu Yun turned around and said, "Uncle Shan, why, these words are obviously my victory, but why don't I feel a little victory?"
Shan Xie said lightly: "Young man, this is the price of your growth, just like martial arts, every time you go up a step, every time you go deeper, you have to face new problems and challenges, you still feel frustrated when you win, it means that you have left the original realm and stepped into a new world!"
Hearing this, Duguyun looked up at the sky with thoughtful hands, and muttered: "People say that dark clouds can't cover for a long time, and finally break through the clouds and mist to see the moon, but in this rapidly changing era, how many people are depressed in this short time?"
Shan Xie patted Dugu Yun's shoulder and said, "It's late at night, since we haven't thought of a good place to go, let's ask for the surname to rest here!"
Dugu Yun immediately lay down on the ground and said softly: "Uncle Shan, thank you very much, if you hadn't been helping me and enlightening me, I would have lost here, and it would have really become a joke that makes people full of food and drink, it is really a joke!"
Shan Xie patted Dugu Yun's shoulder again, and said, "Have a good rest, let's talk about everything clearly!" After speaking, Shan Xie also fell asleep on the ground.
The clouds are moving slowly, and after tonight, where should I go?
There was no word all night, Duguyun seemed to be asleep, and he seemed to be awake, and his thoughts were like a dream in the silence of the night.
Time flowed minute by minute, the clouds had not dispersed, but the sky was already bright!
Dugu Yun suddenly got up and said: "Uncle, I figured it out, since I have fear in my heart, I shouldn't avoid it, but approach it, adapt to it, and finally control it!"
Shan Xie looked at Dugu Yun with a smile and said, "It's good to think about it, although you will have to live a life of competing with others in the future, but in fact, you are competing with yourself, now, you have won your own restless heart, are you happier?"
Dugu Yun nodded and said: "Well, after making a decision, the whole person is much refreshed, and there is a sense of joy that the sky is high and the birds can fly, but I also know that if the cancer of the royal family is not removed, and the truth of their ambitions is not revealed, not only my life, but even my heart will be shamed!"
Hearing this, Shan Xie put Duguyun in front of his life, and glanced at him appreciatively.
Dugu Yun stared at Shan Xie Dao with burning eyes: "But I am not familiar with the territory by nature, and I am not well-informed, so I trouble my uncle to take me to the territory ruled by the royal family, only in those dangerous places can I get as close to the facts as possible and improve my strength!"
Shan Xie smiled and nodded, got up and said, "Get on the horse, let's go!"
After finishing speaking, Duguyun and Shan Evil turned over and got on the horse, Shan Evil rode the horse and galloped, the wind was whistling, and they started a new journey!
The purpose is that the royal family retreats to the territory, and it is rumored that the royal family retreats because of the fear of demonic beasts, but the actual situation has become confusing after the battle in Shenwu City.
This time, the single evil controlled the reins, and Dugu Yun had a lot of thoughts at night, so the surname Suo sat behind and closed his eyes to recuperate.
The horse is abnormal, galloping at high speed, the footsteps are almost off the ground, climbing the mountain and wading through the water as if walking on the ground, even if it is a soft sandy place, it can not raise the slightest dust, there is this magic horse, the single evil never picks the road, picks up the shortest road and walks, all the way does not stop at all, and only in the case of not seeing things at night to pick a place with abundant vegetation, so that the horse is full of grass and trees, and people can rest.
Duguyun jumped on the branch and sat down, and said with a smile: "Uncle is really amazing, as if he seems to have a map in his head, and he doesn't walk a little superfluous." ”
Shan Xie sat on the ground and said: "Since there is a divine horse by his side, he naturally can't choose the road like a mortal horse, otherwise he will not waste the advantage of the divine horse in vain!"
The white horse snorted, and his body shook suddenly, as if he understood, very proud!
Dugu Yun looked at the white horse, shook his head helplessly, and said, "This horse actually understands human language, I didn't know it before!"
Shan Xie said: "Since Shenma is psychic, you can give him a name!"
Dugu Yun was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "Uncle Shan, don't embarrass me, it's really not my strong point to choose a name!"
Shan Xie didn't say anything, just stared at him, and the white horse also came to his senses at this time, staring directly at Duguyun with huge round eyes, and seemed to be expecting Duguyun to give it a name!
Duguyun held his head in distress, various names kept flashing in his mind, and suddenly the sky lit up, and a thick lightning bolt pierced the sky, Duguyun stared for a long time, and suddenly slapped his thigh and said: "Lightning, it's so decided, you are called Lightning!"
The white horse got up and neighed, its front hooves kept dancing, and its mood was very high!
Duguyun was also infected by the white horse's emotions, jumped off the tree, and couldn't stop playing with the white horse!
Shan Xie looked at this scene with a smile, and his heart was also cheerful. In this way, it was not until late at night that the two of them rested.
As soon as the day dawned, the two continued on their way.
Half a day later, leaving the mountainous area, into the plains, the field of vision suddenly broadened, and after a distance, suddenly the sound of the big river flowing, the lightning mood suddenly rose, the speed was a little faster, and after a while, I saw a sparkling river to the sky, the width of the river, which made people feel a little palpitation!
Shan Xie Dao: "This river is the second river closest to the border in the range of human activities, the Jingjiang River, about two hours or so, we can reach the border of the royal forces, the turning point of the mainland forces, Linyang City!"
Duguyun looked at the other side of the river and said, "Do we want to cross the river?"
Shan Xie smiled and said: "Naturally, there is no need to cross the river, we will go up the river, and we will naturally be able to see that city, and when the time comes, you will practice and show your skills to get close to the beginning of the truth!"
Dugu Yun looked into the distance, the sky was high and the earth was wide, and he suddenly had a lot of pride in his heart, and muttered: "Since you are here, you will wait for me, don't let me down!"
Linyang City, the grand city is like a giant beast creeping on the plain, magnificent, guarding the Jingjiang River that flows endlessly at night!
When he was about to arrive at Linyang City, Shan Xie suddenly grabbed the reins and said: "This horse is too dazzling, it is not comparable to Shenwu City here, as long as it is discovered by someone, it will be surrounded by people immediately!"
Dugu Yun smiled bitterly: "If you can't enter the city, there is no place to put lightning!"
The lightning snorted, and he was very dissatisfied with Duguyun!
Shan Xie laughed and said, "This horse is so psychic, why do you need to keep it in captivity, it is better to take off the reins and let him move freely in this area." ”
Duguyun immediately dismounted, reluctantly touched the horse's head, and said: "Lightning, lightning, let's leave for a while, you live freely for a while, and we'll see you again!"
Shan Xie handed the reins to Duguyun, jumped off the horse, took off the saddle, and threw it into the endless river!
Duguyun slowly took off the reins, stared at the lightning, and threw the reins into the river, saying: "Now that you are free, I think with your ability, you should be able to live a very happy life!" After speaking, Duguyun suddenly patted off the horse's back, the lightning neighed, raised the horse's hooves and immediately galloped away, raising the dust all the way, looking extremely happy, so that he deliberately kicked the earth for a play.
Dugu Yun and Shan Xie looked at each other, smiled slightly, and walked towards the direction of the city.
The sky gradually darkened, Dugu Yun and Shan Xie finally walked to the gate of Linyang City, and the guards at the city gate saw that the two people, one big and one small, were covered with dust, but they just showed a disgusted gaze, so they let them go directly, and they didn't even ask!
The city was crowded with people and lively, but looking at the people who came and went, Gu had a well-proportioned breath and a calm pace, and no one was an ordinary person, which was even more dangerous than the Shenwu City during the saber rattling period.
Dugu Yun said in a low voice: "I didn't expect the strength of the royal family to be so strong, and the huge city has actually reached the point where all the people are soldiers!"
Shan Xie looked around and said: "Not only that, but these people can be so well-behaved and disciplined, which is really admirable!"
Dugu Yun frowned: "This is just to enter the edge of the imperial power, they are already so powerful, if they are close to the center of power, how strong is the strength of those people? On the other hand, the family and the temple ......" Dugu Yun couldn't help but sigh, and suddenly felt extremely lost in his heart!
Shan Evil said: "Don't be discouraged, the stronger the enemy, the greater your progress will be." ”
Dugu took a deep breath, nodded and said, "I should only think about how to surpass, not be afraid of other people's strength, right?"
Shan Xie nodded: "That's right, this is the mentality that young people should have!"
The streets of Linyang City are extremely wide, the overall planning of the houses presents a cross-shaped through, most of the houses are newly built, the streets paved with stone slabs are at least ten times wider than other cities, as if they are mostly flat roofs and single shapes, there are no trees in the city, except for the river that flows from the Jingjiang River outside the city and some flowers and plants are planted to dress up, there is nothing else to dress up!
Dugu Yun and Shan Xie stopped all the way, and after understanding the pattern in the city, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
I saw that the houses in front were towering, the green trees on both sides of the river were sparse, and the grass and trees were shining, which made people feel like another village!
Dugu Yun said with a smile: "I really thought that the royal family really trained people for me, but it turned out that ordinary residents were put in it to protect me, it really scared me, and I thought I had fallen into the trap of the royal family!"
Shan Evil said: "If this is the case, they are all armies, and no one is engaged in other careers, who can raise a huge army and demonic beasts?"
Dugu Yun said: "Since the army wants to eat, let's go eat too, find a big restaurant, that is the best place to find out the news!"
Shan Xie said: "The cost of a big restaurant is not cheap, do you have any way?"
Dugu Yun smiled and said, "Uncle, you don't have to worry about it, I am also an expert in robbing the rich and helping the poor!"
When the two of them arrived at the largest Spring Breeze Pavilion in the city, the attendants inside were supposed to come out to greet them, but when they saw their dusty appearance, they immediately retreated and disappeared in an instant!
Dugu Yun touched his head with a headache and said, "Uncle, we are sleeping in the open these days, we should really change our clothes before entering this place, we are really blinded!"
Shan Xie said: "If there is no one to entertain, let's entertain ourselves!"
Who knew that as soon as one foot stepped into the threshold, he only heard a loud shout: "How dare a homeless man with no money enter the Chunfeng Pavilion indiscriminately?"
Dugu Yun's face changed immediately, and he suddenly followed the voice, and was immediately stunned, and his jaw was about to fall to the ground!
