35 The Second City of Dakun
(Xie Luxie's monthly passes for "feg123er" and "Crazy Love Library", Xie Luxie's rewards for "Wind and Night" and "Weeping Demon", ask for a few monthly passes)
In the endless frontier land, stands a majestic giant city.
The dark brown city wall carries the vicissitudes and heaviness of the years, and it is heavy like a giant beast crawling on the borderland, and I don't know how many years have not changed.
Standing in front of this ancient giant city, Chu Duan felt shocked from the bottom of his heart, this momentum and majesty were all impacting his vision and heart.
This was the first time Chu Duan had come to Border Desert City.
After cultivating, Chu Duan calculated that his time in the border mining area was half a year, and now more than three months have passed, and in another two months, he will leave here and return to the Sword Mansion.
There are a total of twenty Ancient Heavenly Desolate Pills, according to the current situation, it is obvious that these twenty Ancient Heavenly Desolate Pills are not enough for him to complete the refining of the Heavenly Desolate Sword Body, once he lacks the assistance of the Heavenly Desolate Pill, if he wants to cultivate into the Heavenly Desolate Sword Body, it will definitely be extremely difficult. Chu Duan had tried it when he tried to cultivate before, and without the assistance of the Heavenly Desolate Pill, he could only absorb the desolate qi that was free in the air.
These desolate qi are originally very thin and miscellaneous and impure, and the cultivation efficiency is extremely low, once you leave here and return to the Sword Mansion, the desolate qi will definitely be even thinner, and at that time, you will have to practice the Heavenly Desolate Sword Body and do not know the year of the monkey.
This kind of predicament must be solved, and Chu Duan thought of the border desert city.
In the border desert city, there are often swordsmen who enter the Heavenly Desolate Mountain Range to find the heavenly desolate root and other elixirs containing desolate energy, etc., and then bring them back to the border desolate city to sell. These elixirs are nothing more than refining them into elixirs.
Chu Duan has obtained a lot of Heavenly Desolate Roots, this time he is planning to come to the Border Desert City to find an alchemist to refine them into the Heavenly Desolate Pill, even if it can't be compared with the Ancient Heavenly Desolate Pill, it is better than nothing, by the way, you can also take a stroll around the Border Desolate City, and appreciate the charm of this city, which is known as the largest city of the dynasty in addition to the royal city.
Retracting his gaze, Chu Duan's heart regained his composure, and he strode into the gate of the border desert city with a hint of pilgrimage-like mentality.
There are four sword guards at the city gate. Wearing full-body battle armor and carrying a long sword at their waists, they exuded an aura of iron and blood, and the forest was cold. Obviously, they are the elites who have experienced a hundred battles, and they all have the cultivation of the Qi Transformation Realm.
Chu Duan swept over at a glance and saw that the sword qi cultivation of these four border desert city sword guards had reached the peak of Qi Transformation Xiaocheng, and he used the Qi Transformation Xiaocheng Peak Sword Leader to act as the city gate guard. It shows that the power of the border desert city is strong.
The streets of the border deserted city are paved with dark brown square stones, ten zhang wide, with a lot of traffic, an endless stream of people, and many shops on both sides of the street, which seems to be very lively and prosperous.
The crowd of people coming and going was dense, and for a while Chu Duan had the feeling of walking to the market, but most of the people walking on the street were carrying long swords or carrying swords on their backs, and it was obvious that the main crowd in the border desert city was the swordsman. There are relatively few ordinary people.
Such a city, with many swordsmen, must be quite chaotic, and if you want to govern such a city well, in addition to having extraordinary means, you also need to have enough strong force to suppress it. Otherwise, there would have been a riot a long time ago.
The world of swordsmen has always been the law of the jungle.
"Little brother...... This little brother, let's have a chronicle of the border wilderness. Chu Duan was standing aside and watching carefully, when a shouting suddenly came from his ears, and when he turned his head to look, a thin man was waving to Chu Duan more than ten meters away and walking quickly. He hung a square basket in front of him, and in it were some books.
"Chronicle of the Frontier Wasteland?" Chu Duan was slightly stunned, and this flashing expression was immediately captured by the other party.
"Little brother, it's your first time coming to the border desert city, and you definitely don't know enough about the border desert city. The thin man immediately said with his eyebrows fluttering: "It doesn't matter, as long as you buy a chronicle of the border wasteland, you can make it clear, this side of the wasteland chronicle is written and passed down by my ancestors for generations, it is the work of several generations of painstaking efforts, and everything about the border wasteland city is recorded in it, it is very detailed, a book in hand, and the trip to the border wasteland will not worry from now on." ”...,
Like an advertisement, the thin man also picked up a book from the bamboo basket on his chest and waved it.
"How much silver?" Chu Duan's heart moved, and he asked lightly.
"Ten taels, only ten taels of silver, no, only nine taels eight, as long as nine two eight you can get a manuscript of the chronicle of the border wilderness handed down by my ancestors, as long as nine two eight, you deserve it." The thin man skillfully typed the advertising slogan while putting the book in front of Chu Duan.
"Ten taels, don't look for it. Chu Duan took out ten taels of silver and handed it to the other party to take the book.
"Brother Xie Lu, you will not be disappointed, I wish you a happy time in the border desert city. The thin man smiled and dragged ten taels of silver, and left as he spoke, looking for the next buyer.
The book is not thick, it is estimated to be thirty or forty pages, and the dark yellow cover has four words on the Bianhuang Chronicle, and after opening it, you can smell a faint scent of ink, which is obviously a new manuscript.
The first page is the table of contents, what is the origin of the border desert city, several major forces in the border desert city, the strong people in the border wilderness, the evil people in the border wilderness, etc., it seems to be clearly divided, although it is a manuscript, but the person who copied it obviously has practiced writing with intentions, although this word seems to be unremarkable, but it is square and round for people to understand at a glance.
After reading the catalog, Chu Duan felt that the ten taels of silver were not wronged.
Ten taels of silver is a wealth for a poor family, and it is of little value to Chu Duan, but Chu Duan is not an extravagant and wasteful person.
Originally, when he came to the border desert city, Chu Duan planned to ask about it, and only then could he know what he should do, but now that he has this border wilderness chronicle, he only needs to check it.
Flipping it open, Chu Duan almost glanced at several lines, he had a super memory that he could never forget, and each page was about ten or twenty lines, yes, in less than a quarter of an hour, the content of the entire Bianhuang Chronicle was memorized in Chu Dui's mind after reading it.
Putting the book into the medium-grade space wrist chakra on his left wrist, Chu Duan thought back to the content of the Bianhuang Chronicle, and suddenly had a goal.
Walking into the street and walking with many people, Chu Duan was not in a hurry, although he needed time very much, but since he came to the border desert city, wouldn't it be a pity not to appreciate it.
You must know that the practice of a swordsman is not only the cultivation of swordsmanship, but also the cultivation of the mind, and every move in daily life can actually be regarded as a kind of practice.
According to the records in the Border Wilderness Chronicle, the Border Desert City was founded 1,800 years ago, at that time it was just a village, called Jiangjia Village, because the Black Eagle Dynasty wanted to invade the Dakun Dynasty, and the two dynasties launched a war that lasted for more than ten years.
The Dakun royal family used Jiangjia Village as a supply point to deliver supplies, which made Jiangjia Village expand and develop rapidly, because the war was too big and lasted for a long time, so that the folk swordsmen of the two dynasties also joined the battle. Jiangjia Village is a village where all people practice swords, so naturally they also joined the battle, and the village chief of Jiangjia Village has rebuilt his virtue and high esteem to a profound one, and has made great contributions to the powerful swordsman who killed the Black Eagle Dynasty many times in the battle.
The war of more than ten years finally ended with the victory of the Great Kun Dynasty, and the Black Eagle Dynasty suffered heavy losses and retreated.
The Dakun Dynasty celebrated, and the Dakun Emperor also rewarded the meritorious people, Jiang Ye, the head of Jiangjia Village at that time, made great contributions, and was named the king of the border wasteland, and the border wasteland was under its jurisdiction, and a large number of materials were rewarded.
Jiang Ye took this opportunity to expand Jiangjia Village to become Jiangjia Town, and built the city in a short period of time, made great efforts, and continued to grow and develop the border city, and finally became the largest city in the Dakun Dynasty except for the royal city, known as the second city of Dakun.
Because of the improvement of Jiang Ye's strength, he won the honorific title of the Sword King, and the honorific title of the Sword King of the Border Wilderness, and his prestige expanded again, and the Emperor of Da Kun was rewarded as the hereditary King of the Border Wilderness, which made the Border Waste City nominally under the jurisdiction of the Da Kun royal family, but in fact it had its own laws. ...,
It's like one day, two systems.
Fortunately, Jiang Ye is not a person who is obsessed with fame and fortune, his pursuit lies in the way of the sword, so he set up an ancestral precept that the border desert city can have its own laws, but it must give up its own interests in front of the great interests of the entire dynasty, and must not be independent or betray the Dakun Dynasty.
It is precisely because of the ancestral teachings left by Jiang Ye, the Sword King of the Border Wilderness, that the Border Desert City has been under the jurisdiction of the Dakun royal family for generations.
This is not a secret, and even the content of Jiang Ye's request to be made public to the world, using the people of the world to supervise the children of the Jiang family in future generations, so as to avoid unscrupulous descendants from violating the ancestral teachings.
Therefore, Chu Duan was able to see these contents on a chronicle of the border wilderness that could be bought with ten taels of lines, and understand the beginning and end of the matter, but as for the specific content, he could not know, after all, more than a thousand years had passed.
With a few points in his heart, while looking at the shops on the left and right, while recalling the content of the chronicle of the border waste, Chu Duan kept moving forward in the flow of people.
At this time, there were shouts and sword qi fluctuations in front, and it seemed that someone was fighting.
Walking along the crowd, Chu Duan saw two swordsmen drawing their swords towards each other, as if they had great hatred.
"Whoever dares to fight in the city, all of them will be arrested, and those who resist will be killed!" At this time, a loud shout sounded full of iron-blooded killing aura, and the powerful power rolled in.
"Spread out, it's the Iron Guard. Immediately, someone exclaimed and retreated, and Chu Duan found that their faces had changed drastically.
The faces of the two swordsmen who drew their swords to each other also changed greatly, and they hurriedly put away their swords and burrowed into the crowd, intending to get out.
But they were already targeted when they drew their swords and faced each other, and the iron-blooded swordsmen of the border desert city did not allow them to escape, and a few figures flashed, and the two swordsmen who were about to escape were suddenly caught, and they were punched into a shrimp shape and thrown in front of a swordsman who was striding forward.
This swordsman is tall and sturdy, wearing a dark red general's battle armor and carrying a sword weapon at his waist, his skin is dark, his eyes are like electric essence flashing, and the momentum of his body is extremely terrifying, surrounded by a strong evil aura.
"Qi Sea Realm ......" Chu Duan was secretly surprised.
The general's battle armor sword warrior swept around like lightning, and no one dared to look at each other, and finally landed on the two Transformation Qi Realms who knelt in front of them, making them tremble and their hairs stand on end.
"Take it away. The swordsman shouted, and immediately a swordsman in battle armor stepped forward and twisted the arms of the two swordsmen and took them away.
"No trouble is allowed in the border deserted city, and the conflict must be resolved outside the city. The general's armor swordsman put down a threatening word, turned and strode away. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
