Chapter 18: Jicheng

After a two-month long journey, Jiang Bai finally came to Jicheng.

It overlooks the second city of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom from the air, with a visual estimate of 80,000 square kilometers, a 30-meter-high city wall encloses the Jicheng, and there is a gate in the east, west, north and south.

Jiang Bai knew that this city gate was guarded against mortals, and even if the treacherous cultivators of the Strange True Realm couldn't fly, they would go in after a few turns.

The East Gate is the liveliest gate, with a long curving queue of crowds and convoys waiting to enter the city.

Dozens of armor soldiers guarded the place to inspect and collect city fees.

Of course, Jiang Bai, as a demon beast, would not go through the main gate, otherwise he would have to scare this group of mortals away.

How can a crow walk through the front door? At first glance, you are a youkai.

Jiang Bai knew that the information that mortals in this world knew was very limited.

They know the existence of the immortals, but they don't know the true face of the immortals, and they also regard these gods as mythical immortals.

As for the demon clan, because the Eastern Wilderness is the territory of the human race, the number of demon clans is limited, and many countries deliberately promote the demon clan as a cruel monster.

Although Jiang Bai felt that they were not wrong.

Compared with the treacherous cultivation of the human race, the demon race is like an uncivilized barbarian, who grabs what he likes when he sees it, and grabs some mortals when he is hungry.

Jiang Bai is special, and the Red Jiao King is a big family by birth, and these demon clans that Jiang Bai said are the majority.

It flew over the city of Thistle, observing the city controlled by the treacherous.

The city is full of traffic, and people in many places are colliding shoulders to walk, which is very lively, and the ancient city in Jiang Bai's impression is no different.

It stands to reason that as a country controlled by trickery, shouldn't the people in it be miserable and miserable?

This was also Jiang Bai's thoughts after knowing the situation in this world, but later it found out that it was wrong.

It's too biased against sophistry, and others know how to be sustainable.

The grassroots officials who excavate the deterioration, explore the deterioration, and even manufacture products to provide services and govern the country all rely on mortals, and for the soteric cultivators, giving mortals a stable life is the best way.

If a mortal is caught and eaten on the street, the country will be chaotic, and it is not in the interests of the high-level treacherous cultivators.

Although they are cannibalistic and evil, they are also rulers.

Leeks also need to be cared for.

Even though mortals are delicious to the cult and better than the meat of any livestock, the clan of the cult as the administrators also maintains restraint.

It's okay to catch a group of people and keep them in captivity, and the reproductive ability of humans is not weak, and it is not difficult to have a child a year.

The solution of captivity does not satisfy all the tricks, but as a luxury, it is still okay to enjoy it once in a while.

For most people, their lives were actually no different from the ancient civilians in Jiang Bai's previous life.

Birth, marriage, work, old age and death are simple and straightforward.

It is a very small probability that the Trick Realm will descend from the sky and be eaten by the Cultivators, and the Cultivators will severely crack down on the Cultivators and slaughter mortals.

"I don't know why you came to Jicheng?" When Jiang Bai was wandering around, he suddenly heard a voice shouting about it.

It looked at the source of the sound and saw that it was an old man drinking tea in a courtyard.

Although the old man had a withered face, he had long black hair.

Jiang Bai flew directly to the old man's courtyard and stopped, standing on the chair opposite the old man.

Jicheng, as the territory of the three families of Huang Zhang and Li, is equivalent to their face, so it is forbidden for the cultivators to fight in Jicheng, and they want to fight out.

So it's much safer here than outside, so you won't encounter the perversion that you will see at first sight.

Jiang Bai recognized the Huang family's costume on the old man's body, it was a bright yellow robe, and a yellow character was circled in the upper right corner of the clothes, which looked quite eye-catching.

This is the Huang family it is looking for, and the old man in front of him is a member of the Huang family.

Although King Chijiao just asked Jiang Bai to bring a message to the Huang family, and then the Huang family told the Li family.

It could have told the old man directly, so that its mission was complete and it could leave at any time.

But Jiang Bai was cautious by nature and didn't want to be drawn into the whirlpool of the two major families of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, so he could only communicate with people he could trust, so as not to let the Li family know about his existence.

This Li family has always been at odds with King Chijiao, and there is also a Netherworld Ancestor, it is not too simple to pinch Jiang Bai to death.

It doesn't know anyone in the Huang family, but normally the higher the level, the smaller the possibility of leakage, so you have to give King Chijiao a face, right?

If Jiang Bai, who delivered the letter, was arrested by the Li family, where would their Huang family's face go?

Unlike the Li family, the Huang family had a good relationship with King Chijiao before, and even invited King Chijiao three or four times, wanting him to settle down in the Huang family.

The Huang family and the Li family also have a competitive relationship, and they can't wait for the ancestor of the other family to die quickly, so that he can be kicked out of the ranks of the six families of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom and receive the inheritance by the way.

It is said that one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, but there are three treacherous cultivators in this Jicheng.

Mr. Jiang Bai glanced at the old man, and at this time the other party was looking at him with a smile on his face, which was quite kind.

But it knew that there was no normal person in the treacherous cultivation, and the old man in front of him didn't know how many people he had eaten.

However, if you don't hit a smiling person, you still have to have the etiquette.

What's more, unless the totem is revealed, Jiang Bai can't know the strength of the other party, maybe this old man is still a big guy and shouldn't be offended.

So Jiang Bai said politely: "Hello fellow Daoist, I am a loose cultivator from Nanshan, some time ago I heard the name of the Huang family, I yearn for it, I want to find a guest in the Huang family, I don't know if you can recommend me, I will be grateful afterwards." ”

What he said was leaky, and people couldn't hear the slightest problem.

Just as the ruler of the Eastern Wilderness is the human race, the ruler of the Southern Mountain is the demon race.

After some demon clans left Nanshan and came to the Eastern Wilderness, in order to live a stable life, most of them would join the local family and become a guest secretary, which can be regarded as having an identity in the local area.

After all, strangers are angry everywhere.

"Hahaha, fellow Daoist, you are too polite, don't worry, Lao Dao will definitely find a good errand for you."

Hearing Jiang Bai's words, the old man's smile was even worse, and he directly agreed.

He could see at a glance that Jiang Bai's blood was extraordinary, and he just called Jiang Bai to see if he could recruit him into the Huang family.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Bai's purpose was to join the Huang family, how could he not make the old man happy?

Whether it is a demon race or a human race, they all inherit the bloodline of powerful existences.

But the bloodline will eventually dry up, and as the bloodline thins, the trickery in the family will become weaker and weaker.

At this time, the best way is to introduce the bloodline of other families.

The fire crow bloodline on Jiang Bai's body is no less than Jiao, and it is a real high-level bloodline.

No matter where it goes, it is popular, of course, in the eyes of some people, this fragrance has another meaning.

Like Jiang Bai, even a big family like the Huang family, whose blood has never dried up, is very welcome.

Jiang Bai was overjoyed when he saw the old man agree, but he wanted to say something and stopped: "Then thank you Daoyou, but it's ......."
