Outside Shangguan City, the carriage traveled for about ten miles, and the fog gradually appeared, and it became more and more dense.

In the visual range, there is a bottomless abyss.

Yao Guanhai tightened the reins, Jiang Wang lifted the curtain, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

The abyss in front of him is immeasurable, as if he has reached the end of the world, and there is chaos outside.

Xiaoyu and Ru Yanqing were both shocked.

Except for Ah Kong, who did not show up in the carriage, Yao Guanhai was the only one who was indifferent.

"Why is there no way?"

Jiang Wang is incomprehensible, there is only one road for all realms to communicate, he thinks that he has not taken the wrong path, the depth, length and width of the abyss are incalculable, even if there is an offset, it is impossible to deviate so much, even if he wants to detour, there is nowhere to detour.

Yao Guanhai said indifferently: "It is normal for you to leave the country for the first time, it is normal for you not to understand, there are abysses blocking the way between the various realms of the Great Sui, you can understand it as two continents, or even two worlds, because the abyss is endless, and if you don't find the right path, you will only be lost forever in the abyss and die in endless years." ”

It is said that the whole Kutan, there are actually very few people who have the opportunity to cross the border in their lives, of course, it is difficult for ordinary people to have opportunities, the most often are merchants, but they are not ordinary merchants, the exchange of goods in various realms, there are such merchants to go back and forth, and domestic merchants can cooperate with such merchants in order to have goods from other borders.

The territory of each realm is very vast, and it is difficult for ordinary people to reach the end, and special merchants have the permission of the gods, and there are even monks, which can save a lot of time to travel back and forth with various realms.

Otherwise, according to the normal speed, you will have to pull the goods, even if you start to set off at the age of twenty, and when you come back, it is estimated that you will be thirty or forty years old.

If you can't do business a few times, you have to prepare for your old age, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Jiang Wang and they arrived at the Kutan border from Shangyang County, although they were in a carriage, but they did not always walk at a normal speed, not to mention such a long distance, the horses could not stand it, during which Jiang Wang spent a lot of silver, in the treasure pavilion of a certain county, specially bought a talisman horse, and could run tirelessly.

But you need to have a large number of talismans to drive, and the talisman horse will also be damaged, you can't just buy one, just a person, of course, the cost can be relatively small, and it is light on the road, less loss, Rao is so, it is still half a year.

It's not like a caravan pulling all kinds of things, and the cost of traveling alone is unimaginable, and it is definitely not something ordinary people can afford.

Therefore, the special merchants are funded by the gods, and the purpose is to open up the trade routes of various realms, and the resources of the merchants will be poured into the special merchants, and then distributed to ordinary merchants in various realms.

The Qingxuan Department has always been engaged in various magic weapons to assist, but after all, there are the Battle of the Candle God Mozhang, the Rebellion of the Kingdoms, and the Sui and Qin disputes, except for the latter, the impact is not so great, and the first three affect the entire world again and again.

It has only been 50 years since the end of the rebellion of the nations, and many things have developed anew. 33

If you want to be perfect, it is difficult to do it in a short period of time.

Jiang Wang, who walked out of Kutan for the first time, can be regarded as gaining knowledge.

"Where is the right path?"

Yao Guanhai pointed to a certain place and said: "There is a boundary monument there, which can only be seen by the Sui people, of course, it is the Sui people who are between the Qin people, like the original Bodhi has a Xuan into the Sui, in addition to crossing the Nai He Sea to reach the bitter sandalwood, if you want to enter other realms, you must get the permission of the gods, or you can cultivate deep enough to directly cross the long river of time, that must be the existence of the snow bath to do it." ”

Jiang looked at it.

Xiao Yu suddenly asked: "Didn't you say that if you want to cross the border, you need to report to the Qingxuan Bureau?" ”

Jiang Wang said: "That's a monk in the Snow Realm, if you don't have a reason to cross the border at will, you can't do it, unless you are extremely low-key and don't do anything, otherwise once you are discovered, you will be interrogated by the Qingxuan Administration, in this matter, the Qingxuan Department is very powerful, and the rules of the monks of the Cave Netherworld are not so strict." ”

Xiaoyu wants to say, Childe, aren't you just bathing in the snow?

Jiang Wang thought that at least he was not in the snow realm now, as for the problem after the cicada was exposed, then it would be said at that time, and at this moment, he would have to return to the Kutan Qingxuan Department and report to the Qingxuan Bureau, which would take a lot of effort.

What's more, Jiang Wang didn't plan to let others know so quickly that he was going to the cicada.

Yao Guanhai drove the carriage and passed by the Kutan Boundary Monument, straight into the abyss, Ru Yanqing was frightened in the carriage, hugging Jiang Wang tightly, Ah Kong and Xiaoyu looked out through the window, Jiang Wang was the same, they were all curious about what would happen.

The carriage was suspended in the air, with an endless abyss underneath and a hazy fog ahead.

Jiang Wang saw it clearly, and faces faintly appeared in the mist, fleeting, as if it was because the speed of the carriage was fast enough, although it looked very slow on the surface.

Yao Guanhai explained: "It is a dead soul that has fallen in the endless river of years. ”

Jiang Wang was surprised: "Since they exist here, doesn't it mean eternal life?" ”

Yao Guanhai sneered and said: "Don't say that if they really exist, how painful they will be here, in fact, they are just projections, although they don't see the boundary monument and the trespassers can easily die in their hands, but they have half the strength of their lives, and they don't have the slightest consciousness." ”

Jiang Wang didn't speak again, just watched silently.

But in a trance, the fog has dissipated.

A new boundary monument appeared, engraved on it - a cicada.

Jiang Wang was surprised: "So fast? ”

Yao Guanhai pointed to the sky and said, "It was daylight when we came, even if it is daylight now, but the time is not right, it is likely to be the second day, or even the third day, so the truth is not as fast as you feel." ”

Jiang Wang lay in front of the window, looked back at the long river of time in the abyss, and muttered, "It's really strange." ”

......

Nanyu is the largest city in the county closest to Kutan.

When Jiang Wang and the others came here, it happened to be the sun setting west, so they decided to enter the city.

"I didn't expect that the ravages of monsters in the cicada are so much higher than the bitter sandalwood, all the way straight, only half a small county, almost every two towns will emerge multiple monsters, but the path is extremely low, and the monks who subdue demons and eliminate demons are also more common than bitter sandalwood, and they are also only weak in cultivation."

Although the person on the other side of the wrench had briefly described the situation of the cicada, Jiang Wang was still very surprised when he really saw it.

Yao Guanhai drove the carriage and tilted his head slightly and said: "There are actually not many sects in the cicada, except for the nomadic people, most of them serve in the Qingxuan Department and the county government and the town guard mansion. ”

"Most of the monks are in the town, so even if the monsters are raging, they can be suppressed at the first time, but some of the little monsters have become the targets of the little monks' training.

"I see." Jiang Wang thought that the cicada and the bitter sandalwood were really completely different, "Let's stay here for one night first and inquire about the specific location of Mantang Mountain." ”

Yao Guanhai said: "Although I used to be home all over the world and know a little bit about some realms, I really don't know where Mantang Mountain is. ”

Jiang Wang said: "Then you have to see what happened to the mountain lord." ”

The carriage swayed slowly.

The sunset spreads across the sky.

A bell rang immediately.

The carriage was running on the main road, which was crowded with people, and when the bell rang, some of the people soon dispersed.

Jiang Wang noticed the solemn building on the side, and the words 'Town Guard Mansion' on the plaque were very eye-catching.

And there were two stone lions in front of the house, which were very spiritual in Jiang Wang's eyes, and even faintly emitted golden light inside, he frowned slightly and muttered, "The door god is the head." ”

The door god who was living in the stone lion suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Wang in the carriage.

But the carriage was already passing by very quickly.

Jiang Wang asked Yao Guanhai to stop in front of the wine shop about a hundred zhang away from the town guard mansion, and a guy led the horse to the parking position, Jiang Wang and the others walked into the wine shop, and other guys entertained him.

Jiang Wangxuan was in the position by the window, and he could have a good view of the situation in front of the yamen of the town guard mansion.

That's where the chimes come from.

"You're from outside?"

The guy picked up the rag and wiped the table, and began to build the stubble.

Jiang Wang nodded and said, "It's the first time I've come to Nanyu." ”

The guy said: "Then I have to tell you, in the past two years, Nanyu will ring the bell to warn every time the town guards the mansion, because as soon as it gets dark, the monsters will haunt, the purpose is to let the people go home as soon as possible, but the monsters really appear after the time, we can also stay in the restaurant, since the guest officials are here, simply stay, so as not to find an inn and easily bump into the monsters." ”

Jiang Wang raised his eyebrows and said: "Monsters are infested day and night, but the monsters will prefer the night, but since it has only been like this in the past two years, I think there are more powerful monsters, and the town guard government has not been able to solve it, why not report it to the Qingxuan Bureau?" ”

From the border to Nanyucheng, Jiang Wang also has a little knowledge, and the people of the cicada know a lot about the monster monks, after all, many of the monks of the cicada are in the town guard mansion, and they can be common, so Jiang Wang also asked bluntly.

The guy put the rag on his shoulder and explained: "Our Qingxuan Bureau's Cui Xingling and Venerable Xue of the Martial God Temple are not very good at dealing with each other, and they are thinking about finding faults, although this matter is not a secret, but it is not known to everyone, and the guest officer is obviously not very clear. ”

"So although the monster that came out of Nanyu is difficult, the government can also fight it back, but it is difficult to kill, Cui Xingling is busy making trouble with Venerable Xue, and Nanyu is in the last county of Kutan, which is far away, so the Qingxuan Department will naturally throw the problem to the Nanyu Mansion and let them solve it slowly."

Jiang Wang was speechless for a while.

The guy instructed: "The guest officer will eat and drink here, but don't run out, wait for the government to repel the monsters, and it will be fine." ”

Jiang Wang nodded, and when the guy walked away, he turned his eyes to look in front of the yamen of the town guard mansion.

There was a heroic and sassy chivalrous woman walking out of the palace, followed by some monks in government robes, although they were monks, but they were indeed no different from ordinary officials, which was a rare scene in Kutan.

It is normal to say that the lord of the government is a monk, but no monk is willing to be a servant.

And this kind of rule has always been in the hands of the cicadas, so for them, it is a common thing, just like people want to eat and sleep, and they will not feel that there is any problem.

The chivalrous girl was holding a knife in her hand, she turned to look at the group of monks, and raised her chin slightly, "This girl has recently practiced a new sword technique, I will name it a domineering knife, this time I will let that monster have no return!" ”

The monks of the government showed an embarrassed smile and praised one after another, "The name is so domineering, I think it must be an extremely powerful knife, Hao Zhutou will kill the monster under the knife this time." ”

"That's nature." The chivalrous woman was full of sorrow, "In the past, either I didn't meet, or I happened to have something, or I was robbed of the limelight by the chief Xiong, this time I led the team, the surname Xiong was not there, and I practiced a new sword technique, what he couldn't do, I will do it, and I will be promoted to the chief officer after a while." ”

She waved her hand and said domineeringly: "Follow me out of the city to kill demons!" ”

Some people died, but not completely......
