For the first time, Yu Chen saw this legendary national teacher, the fourth realm existence of the same three as Wen Sheng.

He tried not to pay attention to that gaze, and stubbornly walked in the direction of the city gate.

- Because the old man Wensheng told him that there are many weirdness in this national teacher.

One of them is that when he appears in your field of vision, what you see is always that he is facing you, staring at you.

No matter how you change your position, how you change your direction, just look at him and you will see that he is also staring at you.

Never be able to see behind him.

So at this moment, the national teacher was just standing on the city wall, but when Yu Chen saw him, he had the illusion of being stared at.

- That's the feeling, to be honest, it's not very good.

Following a group of vendors, Yu Chen came to the gate of the city and accepted the routine inspection of the city guards.

I have to say that although Zhou Xiu, the king of Rende, withdrew from the battle for the heir, the doorman token he gave was still full of gold, allowing Yu Chen and Shi to pass the inspection at the city gate without a lot of unnecessary trouble.

- Otherwise, he would have to figure out a fake identity, after all, he and Shishi's original identity waist cards were both from Jinling, Jiangzhou. And at this moment, after Jiangzhou mysteriously disappeared, any person or thing that had anything to do with Jiangzhou was enough to touch the sensitive nerves of the high-level leaders in the capital.

After passing the inspection, I walked into the dark city gate that was three or five feet deep - this is also the thickness of the city's walls.

The further I went, the more darkness grew, and the more oppressive I felt.

Until a certain moment, after completely walking through the city gate, it is like a mountain and a river after the recovery, the willows and flowers are bright!

A scene of prosperity and prosperity squeezed into Yu Chen's field of vision, dizzying.

Just look at the street ahead, the bluestone paving road is extremely wide, and the twenty horsemen are not crowded at all;

On both sides of the street, the atmospheric green tile wooden buildings stand in a forest, a number of dazzling door shops, the left side of the gold brocade house hangs a luxurious cloth, and the right side of the child boya pavilion is an antique qinse; On the street, there is a noise of cars and horses, and it is bustling and busy, like a mess of flowers, which fascinates people's eyes.

Yu Chen and Shi were like two hillbillies who had never seen the world, and they were stunned for several breaths before they reacted, walked forward, and blended into the endless stream of people.

People come and go, and it's very lively.

Judging from the marquee of the old man Wensheng, the entire capital is divided into three parts - the outer city, the inner city, and the imperial city.

The outer city is divided into four urban districts, east and west, north and south, named after the four major beasts of the green dragon, white tiger, vermilion bird, and Xuanwu, which is the place where the people of the capital live their daily lives.

The outer city and the inner city are cut off by Luoshui, and the inner city is mainly the residence of various departments of the imperial court and some dignitaries, and the inside is heavily guarded, with a sentry in a hundred steps, and a post in a thousand steps.

As for the Imperial City, there is no need to say more, where the True Dragon Heavenly Son is located, that is, the Imperial City, where its humanity and luck gather, are extremely prosperous.

Yu Chen walked around the outer city, found an inn for a meal, asked for a room, and planned to stay for one night before making plans.

Needless to say, his plan is naturally to find a grave to watch.

Because there are graves before there are dead people, only with dead people can there be a will, only with a will can there be a reward, and only with a reward can the party grow his ability.

But this matter is not in a hurry, it is getting late at this time, and the funeral department of the Ministry of Rites and Funeral in charge of the funeral is afraid that it will also be closed, or it will be said tomorrow.

In the inn room, Yu Chen took out eighteen copper nails from the mustard seed Sumeru bag.

This nail is a foot long, the cold light is not obvious, the whole body is dark red and mottled, I don't know whether it is blood or rust, it is full of ominous and strange atmosphere.

Called - Eighteen Nails of the Soul.

It is the reward given by the Sutra after the last wish of Wolf Qing and others was completed.

It is not difficult to use, it can be used after pouring into the natal qi, just like the art of the sword, eighteen soul suppression nails are like arm commands, copper nails into the ground, you can draw the ground as a prison, lock the soul of the array; The copper nail enters the body, and it is even more lifeless, and there is no life.

After playing with it in the poor hands, Yu Chen put it away, sat cross-legged on the bed, and practiced it.

At this moment, in the Spirit Court, the Spirit Phase's golden body was still expanding, and the Spirit Court Heavenly Dome had burst out with the slightest crack.

Yu Chen knew that just waiting for the Heavenly Dome of the Spirit Aspect to completely shatter, he would be able to open up the realm of the Divine Spirit, and the Spirit Aspect would shatter the void, and the sun would soar to reach the third realm of refining Qi.

Be just round the corner!

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning, Yu Chen asked Shi Shi to wait at the inn, went down by himself and ordered a bowl of porridge casually, and sat in the tea shed outside the inn, drinking it while looking out of the alley.

At this time, the genius is bright, but the capital is already bustling, and the hawkers on their shoulders are heading towards the market; The storyteller was setting up the stage with a cloth bag on his back; The miscellaneous servants of the rich and noble families who got up early to go to the market were in a hurry......

After eating the porridge, Yu Chen headed in the direction of the inner city.

The inner city and the outer city of the capital are only separated by a water, which is called the main stream of Luoshui.

To say that this Luoshui is also a major feature of the capital, the mainstream is the ship route to and from the capital, and there are huge ships docking and leaving the ship day and night.

And the tributaries have become the grand scene of the capital, and those scholars and literati in the daytime board ships and sail, cook tea and fight poems, and scold Fang Xuan; And at night, the lights are on, all night long, and the flower boats wander, it has become a night scene for those gentlemen to enjoy themselves.

To get back to the point, this from the outer city to the inner city, there is no land, only thirteen heavenly bridges across Luoshui, the name of this bridge, also means that after the bridge, that is the heaven and the earth.

It is true that most of the inner city is the residence of various departments of the imperial court, and their own residences of the princes and wealthy merchants are indeed like mud and mud for ordinary people, and it is difficult to reach.

Through the door token of King Rende in his hand, Yu Chen passed through the gate of the inner city quite easily - Zhou Xiu was not exaggerating that time, except for the fact that he could not go to the imperial city at will, he was unimpeded in all parts of the capital.

Came to the Ministry of Rites, a funeral department specializing in funeral affairs.

When the funeral officer saw King Rende's doorman's token, he immediately turned into a good public servant of the people, amiable, flattering and smiling.

But after hearing that Yu Chen wanted to find a job to look at the grave, he was embarrassed.

- The capital of Great Xia, there are a total of four mausoleums open to the outside world, corresponding to the four cities of the outer city.

And the position of this mausoleum keeper is also a serious court establishment, although it is not established, but it is also a public meal, an iron rice bowl, stable, and idle.

Therefore, although it is said to be a ninth-rate job, it is also broken by those people, there is no vacancy at all, and if you can squeeze your head to become a mausoleum guard, it is basically related to the officials under the court.

But at this moment, Yu Chen came with King Rende's doorman token and said that if he wanted to find a job guarding the mausoleum, he would inevitably kick out one of those mausoleum guards.

This official has a lot of headaches.

When Yu Chen heard this, he didn't want to rob other people's jobs, so he said that there were no other mausoleums.

The official's eyes rolled, and he stopped talking, and it took a long time to say that in addition to the four tombs in the capital, there is another one.

It's just that the mausoleum, called "no return", is not a good place to listen to the name.

It's not even in the capital, it's on the mountain of no return.

Although it also belongs to the family funeral director, the corpses buried on it are either horizontally dead, or they are resentful, or they have no name or surname and don't know where they came from.

The guardians of the other four mausoleums are all rushed by others, but only this is not the mausoleum because of the heavy yin atmosphere, the mausoleum keepers have changed one after another, and the longest one has not been dry for a full month.

So at this moment, the position of the keeper of the tomb that does not return to the tomb is empty.

But after the official made it clear, he didn't recommend Yu Chen to go there, because he heard that there were unclean things.

Yu Chen listened, but his eyes lit up.

- This is not sleepy to touch the pillow?

What do we want from these dead people, don't we want this dead and resentful corpse?

As for the yin, unclean, and haunted in the mouths of the officials?

What's that?

It is not an exaggeration for Yu Chen to say that he is a ghost ancestor at this time!

At his repeated insistence, the official took up his duties for him, and repeatedly emphasized that once the second watch was past the evening, he must stay in the house and not come out to hang around.

Yu Chen agreed, took the brand, clothes, bedding and some sundries, and left.

The official who left the funeral director looked confused.

You say that this is holding the token of King Rende's disciples, except for those official positions in the court, the rest of the work is not chosen randomly?

Why is it that the young man is determined to plunge headlong into the pile of dead people?

I don't understand.

But Yu Chen didn't care about him, took his things and went back to the outer city, and after picking up the stones at the inn, he was ready to go out of the city and go up the mountain.

The streets are still bustling.

Yu Chen bought a few strings of sugar gourds and some pastries, and planned to take them to the underworld for Qinghuan to taste later, this girl likes these snacks.

And the capital is also very big, and the two of them walked for most of the day, and they didn't reach the destination of the mountain of no return.

It wasn't until the sky was dark and dusk approached that I could see a dark and gloomy mountain in the distance under the sunset outside the city walls.

- That's it!

But just as the two of them were about to leave the city, there was a commotion at the gate of the city, which attracted their attention.

I just saw that there were a lot of people around there, crowded with people, and the noise was unusual.

Yu Chen and Shi were just about to surround and see the excitement.

I heard someone in the crowd exclaim!

"Dead man! Dead man! The lame horse is dead! ”

So everyone was stunned, you said, I said, and I couldn't stop talking.

From the talk of those people, Yu Chen knew what was probably going on.

Let's say that the streets and alleys near the city gate are the lowest and most humble places in the capital where the most humble people live.

- The layout of the capital is like this, the closer to the imperial city, the more prosperous it is; On the contrary, the more desolate and desolate it is.

Yu Chen and the others are living in Qingwa Street at this time, and they are even more poor among the poor, basically some old men and women who have nothing to rely on, waiting for death in a daze.

And the dead man who was watched by everyone was an old man in Qingwa Street.

His real name is unknown, and no one knows it.

But because he broke a leg and led an old horse all day long, he was called "lame horse".

Said that this horse is lame, although lame, but the body is also strong, these years relying on his old horse, from outside the city to camel some herbs into the city to sell for a living.

But when he came back from outside the city, they didn't see his old horse, and the lame man himself was covered with bruises, and he limped back with a branch.

He was still muttering something, but no one could hear him.

It wasn't until dusk that the neighbors found him lying in front of their house.

When I touched my neck, I was out of breath.
