The distance from Tiecheng to Qingcheng was not far, and they arrived at their destination quickly.

Qingcheng belongs to the border defense area, there are more warriors in the city than the people, the consumption of weapons here is naturally very large, the number of weapons dealers here is as huge as the number of warriors here, several airport ships are full, densely packed with a large area, and a suspended island is extended outward for more than ten kilometers.

It is interesting to talk about how the borders are determined in this suspended world.

The people of the Hanging Heaven Realm originally did not have too strong force, and the spirit beasts living in the Hanging Heaven Realm had the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, once they escaped from the suspended island where they were, it would be a devastating blow to the non-spirit beast creatures on other islands, it can be said that the people of the Hanging Heaven Realm have only one natural enemy, that is, spirit beasts.

Their borders are also naturally divided by the conflict between humans and spirit beasts, and all borders mean that there are spirit beasts on a nearby suspended island, and the border line is also set up to prevent sudden attacks by spirit beasts.

Qingcheng as a border city is not particularly large, but particularly long, the whole Qingcheng is a long border line composed of hundreds of small suspension islands, these attached suspension islands are not like the sub-city of Zenith City, with independent city functions, they just have the effect of extending the defense range, each island is just stationed some warriors, and the buildings on the island are also very simple compared to the regular city.

Don't look at the small islands attached to Qingcheng, there are very many small islands, but in fact, it is the suspended island in the center that is really considered a city, and merchant ships are only allowed to dock in the main city, and the official purchase of weapons will not allow merchant ships to directly approach the border islands. They are all loaded and unloaded and transported by themselves.

This is also the reason why the main city was almost surrounded and occupied by merchant ships. The entire city is simply inefficient.

Seeing that the merchant ships in front of them were crowded. Chen Ling, who hadn't gotten off the boat yet, didn't want to go down anymore.

If you want to squeeze these more than ten kilometers of merchant ships into Qingcheng, it will take at least half a day, and as long as you take half a day to rest and come out, it will be a wasted day's work here.

Rather than this, it is better to directly find a few merchant ships that have come out and ask them if they want to go to Red Maple City, anyway, the only thing they have to do when they get to Qingcheng is just to rest and continue to set off, and there is nothing to rest in such a small city, so it is better to continue to set off non-stop.

......

Finally found a merchant ship that planned to go to Red Maple City, and spent twice the price to board the ship, and everyone had already rushed to the next city, Red Maple City, before they settled in Qingcheng.

Red Maple City is a tourist city. It is said that the scenery is good, and the officials and nobles are willing to run there and cultivate for a month or two when they have free time.

Of course, for Chen Ling, there is no point in staying in this city, to be precise, only the imperial capital is his only destination now.

After resting in Red Maple City for a morning, Chen Ling led everyone to leave Red Maple City for the next city after lunch.

......

In the depths of a suspended island far from the city, stands a city of great size, with low houses but huge scale.

In an ordinary-looking room in the center of the city, a large man and a thin man in white raised their eyes.

"It's been more than ten days, why haven't they come back yet?" asked the big man. There was obvious anxiety in his tone.

The man in white sipped his tea and thought for a long time and said, "This time it does take a bit of time. I have sent people to keep an eye on their movements at the transit point, and they have not reached the transit point for more than ten days, so I'm afraid ......"

"I'm afraid of what?" the big man glared at the man in white.

"Helper, I think we might have to prepare for the worst. The man in white sighed.

The big man was not willing to accept this fact, so his face was very ugly, but he couldn't accept or not accept this matter, he could only see what the final result was, and what kind of result he had to accept.

After thinking about it, he said: "Even if there is an accident, but how can it be? It's not the first time they've carried out this mission, the one hundred and twenty people on the ship are all very experienced, they can adapt to anything they encounter, there has never been a problem, this time it's been more than ten days, even if something really happens to them, someone should always come back and tell what happened, right?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out, but this possibility is really very small, our air superiority is incomparable, even if we encounter a very strong warrior who comes out to fight, even if one hundred and twenty people can't beat one person, they are fully capable of relying on their flight advantage to escape back and report the news, and it is unlikely that they will be killed by all of them. The man in white frowned as he spoke, "Helper, there's a guess I don't know if to talk about or not." ”

"Say it. ”

"Since it is unlikely that they will all be killed, and now that they have not even arrived at the transit point for more than ten days, there is a guess that they have to guard against...... They took the goods themselves and ran away, intending to set up another portal. ”

"Impossible! They are all people I have carefully selected, and it is not the first time to carry out this mission, if they want to run away with these goods, they will already run, where is the need to run now, and this time the goods are not very large, why should they choose to do it this time? It is impossible, it is impossible, there is absolutely no such possibility. The big man said affirmatively.

"Is the helper so sure?"

"Nonsense, I'm not sure I can send them to carry out such a big thing?"

The man in white furrowed even deeper.

"If the gang leader is so sure that they won't run away with their goods, then this thing is strange, where did they go? It can't just disappear for no reason, right?"

"I came to you to hear your analysis, what the hell is going on?

"There are only these two possible speculations, which one is more likely to help you?"

The big man himself wondered, how do you know which of these speculations is more likely.

It is said that the possibility of one hundred and twenty people being killed is too small, how strong the martial artists who can appear in the Hanging Heaven Realm are is completely speculative, no matter how strong they are, it is impossible to be strong enough to be able to kill one hundred and twenty martial artists who are not much weaker than him at the same time, not to mention that one hundred and twenty people have a unique equipment advantage, even if the nosy strong people they encounter have terrifying power, they will have the opportunity to escape from the battlefield and come back to report.

Don't...... (To be continued.) )
