Chapter 4 East Gate of the College
"Elder Zhang, do we need any fees to enter Tiger Nine City?" Zhou Wen asked curiously.
"Zhou Wen, our Tiger Nine City Xuangui Academy, no matter who you are, you don't need to pay a fee. However, there is a rule that you have to queue up to enter and exit Tiger Nine City, and no one can be an exception. Zhou Wen, this rule must be firmly remembered. If this rule is broken, it needs to be punished severely. Zhang Guangyue said with a serious face.
"Elder Zhang, don't worry, Zhou Wen has written it down." Zhou Wen replied obediently.
"Zhou Wen is really sensible." Zhang Guangyue said lovingly.
Soon after, the team that entered the city was the turn of Zhang Guangyue, Zhou Wen, and Zhou Lei.
"It turned out to be Elder Zhang, please come in, please come in. These two little dolls must be newly recruited disciples. The defenders of the city arched their hands.
"Yes, they are new disciples. After that, you will be brothers. Zhang Guangyue nodded indifferently.
After finishing speaking, Zhang Guangyue stayed with Zhou Wen, and Zhou Lei entered Tiger Nine City.
"Elder Zhang, these city guards are also disciples of the Tiger Nine City Xuangui Academy." Zhou Wen asked puzzled.
"Yes, they are all disciples of the Tiger Nine City Xuangui Academy. They can also be regarded as carrying out tasks, and when they arrive at the Xuan Turtle Academy, you will slowly know these things. Zhang Guangyue nodded and said.
When I entered Tiger Nine City, I found that the prosperity of Zhou Town was like a world of difference compared with the prosperity of Tiger Nine City. Street food, a wide variety of food. The streets are neat and tidy, and there is no chaos at all. Shops stand in a variety of ways. People come and go, and the eyes are dizzying. Exotic beasts can be seen everywhere.
"Elder Zhang, why didn't we see these rare beasts when we went out of the city gate?" Zhou Wen saw the strange and exotic beasts, and asked with some suspicion.
"We are in Tiger Nine Cities, and we can't ride rare beasts to enter at the city gate. This is true both out of town and into the city. And in the city of Tiger Nine City, there is a forbidden sky array. The forbidden sky array can make people unable to fly in the sky. Even exotic beasts that can fly are no exception. So in Tiger Nine City, you will see thousands of strange and exotic beasts, walking on the ground. Moreover, Tiger Nine City looks so huge, most of it is derived from these rare beasts. ”
"Rare and exotic beasts, big and small, high and low, and so on. Zhou Wen, if you enter the Tiger Nine City Turtle Academy, you can also obtain a rare beast. Zhang Guangyue said with a smile.
"Elder Zhang, do you think that's a Xuan Tortoise?" Suddenly, Zhou Wen pointed to a rare beast and said in surprise.
Zhang Guangyue glanced at it, nodded and said, "Yes, that's the Xuan Turtle." The turtle resembles a tortoise, with a tortoise shell on its back, claws like lion's claws, and a tail like a snake's tail. The reason why the turtle is called a turtle is that there is a character on the tortoise shell. ”
"Xuanzi." Zhou Wen said in surprise.
"Yes, it's Xuanzi." Zhang Guangyue nodded.
"The Tiger Nine Cities are divided into the East City, the West City, the South City, the North City, and the Central Tiger Nine City Turtle Academy."
"The Tiger Nine City Xuangui Academy has four gates. These four gates connect the east city, the west city, the south city, and the north city. Instead of the people of the Xuangui Academy, they can't pass through these four gates, they can only take a detour. ”
"The east city, the west city, the north city, and the south city of the Tiger Nine City are all kinds, and when you are familiar with them, you will know them." Zhang Guangyue said with a smile.
"Now that we are in Dongcheng, Zhou Wen, you should familiarize yourself carefully, but you may need to buy what you want here." Zhang Guangyue admonished.
"Okay, Elder Zhang." Zhou Wen's eyes rolled wildly.
Zhou Wen is a little younger, so he keeps Zhang Guangyue's words in mind, so along the way, he is familiar with everything in Dongcheng. And Zhou Lei was looking at which rare beasts along the way.
The exotic beasts here are very different from the earthlings, but they are related. For example, a two-headed lion, a tiger like a scorpion, a wild boar with wings, a frog with three legs, a horse without legs, a rhinoceros without skin, a crocodile with a small mouth, and so on.
These rare beasts, although they are strange, but no matter what kind of rare beasts, they all exude a different charm. Such a charm is indescribable, and the way is unclear, but Zhou Lei always feels that these rare beasts should be like this.
Walking and stopping, Zhang Guangyue, Zhou Wen, and Zhou Lei came to a gate ten meters high and one hundred meters wide. The gate is made of marble pillars, inlaid with more strange and exotic beasts. These rare beasts, Zhou Lei has never seen them all the way.
Above the gate, there is a plaque. The plaque reads: East Gate of Xuangui Academy in Tiger Nine City.
The east gate of Xuangui Academy and the bustling street market more than ten meters away are moving and quiet, orderly and discouraged.
There were ten guards at the east gate of the Xuangui Academy, and Zhou Lei felt at a glance that these ten guards were much stronger than the soldiers at the gate of Tiger Nine City. Moreover, these ten guards, dressed in strange armor and holding sharp blades, looked majestic, and they were intimidating and did not dare to approach.
"Let's go, let's go inside." Zhang Guangyue took Zhou Wen's hand and entered the east gate of Xuangui Academy, followed by Zhou Lei.
Entering the east gate of the Xuangui Academy, Zhou Lei, Zhou Wen saw a huge Xuangui statue. This huge turtle statue is carved out of a huge stone. The turtle statue is more than 100 meters tall and 1,000 meters long, with 50 meters high limbs and 2,300 meters wide. The huge turtle roars in the sky, which is unforgettable. The huge tortoise shell on the turtle's body is as shocking as if it covers the sky and the sun.
On both sides of the road of the Xuangui Academy in Tiger Nine City, all kinds of rare trees are planted. Ancient pines and cypresses, verdant and with a huge canopy. Ten thousand years of repair, more than ten zhang high, standing upright and not bending. Small trees, in a variety of shapes, eye-catching.
In the Tiger Nine City Xuangui Academy, Zhou Wen and Zhou Lei also saw some small rare beasts. These small and cute exotic beasts are not worth a penny in Zhang Guangyue's eyes, so he once said: "These rare and exotic beasts look cute, and they can only be used as vases." He doesn't have much combat power, so it's just grandstanding. ”
And Zhang Guangyue repeatedly told Zhou Wen not to accept such rare beasts. As for Zhou Lei, in Zhang Guangyue's eyes, there has never been.
However, Zhou Lei scoffed at Zhang Guangyue's words and disdained them. These cute, small and exotic beasts, since they can survive in the world, must have their own uniqueness. Powerful exotic beasts have never grown up, and they may not be powerful. A weak and exotic beast that has never grown up, and it is not strong in words. In the world, there is no absolute, only relative. Strong is not necessarily strong, and weak is not necessarily weak. A win is not necessarily a victory, and a defeat is not necessarily a defeat. Glory is not necessarily honor, and humiliation is not necessarily humiliation. Gain is not necessarily gain, loss is not necessarily loss.
