Volume 2 Divine Sword Guard Chapter 116 Outer City Inner Castle
Qi An is not a stupid person, he quickly figured this out, and accepted the other party's help that was both a favor and a transaction, so he promised: "If you can get my Qi An in the future, as long as it is not too demanding, Qi someone will obey." ”
Of course, a favor can only help you do one thing, and when it is done, the favor will be returned, and it is impossible to serve you for a lifetime.
Seeing Qi An's response, Meng Yuxi smiled and said: "I saved you, not only because I love you, but also because I have the heart to make friends, so you can use the place of our Sun Moon Tower in the future, and you can also open your mouth." ”
After that, Meng Yuxi took out a small round jade plate, handed it to Qi An, and said: "This is our VIP voucher for Sun Moon Tower, you can take it, if you need the help of Sun Moon Tower in the future, you can directly show this jade card, you can enjoy the treatment of guests, and naturally someone will serve you." ”
Qi An took the jade plaque and watched it in his hand, one of which was engraved with a emblem, which was combined by two figures of one day and one month, which should represent the Sun and Moon Tower, and the other side was a simple "human" character, in addition, there were only some decorative lines.
Seeing Qi An put the jade plate into the storage bag, Meng Yuxi knew that the other party had accepted the hand of friendship he had extended out, so he nodded with satisfaction and said softly: "You can recuperate with peace of mind here for a few days, no one will disturb you, if you need anything, just order your subordinates." ”
Qi An hugged his fists and said, "Thank you Dream Girl." ”
"Don't be so polite, just call me Yuxi!" Meng Yuxi smiled, revealing two more tempting shallow pear nests, which made Qi An feel in a trance.
Just as Meng Yuxi thought, Qi An accepted her kindness happily, and didn't even have the slightest suspicion about her.
On the one hand, because Meng Yuxi's appearance and temperament are difficult to find in the world, it is impossible for people to be disgusted, and no one can bear to refuse;
When Qi An was recuperating from his injuries, the outside was chaotic, but all well-informed people in Xiangfan City knew that something big had happened yesterday, first Liang Wei among the seven sons of Xiangfan had a dispute with a young master in Juxian Tower, and the result was not as good as others, but he was humiliated by the other party, and later teamed up with Tan He and Zhang Yangyan and other two, gathered many masters, sought revenge late at night, and sneaked into the inn where the young man settled to assassinate, who knew that the other party's strength was amazing, not only was not killed, but he showed his majesty, and even beheaded several offenders, including Luo Sheng, The three well-known peak masters of condensation, such as Shadow Killing Yin Jiu and giant Han Cao Meng, shocked countless people.
This news became the focus of people's discussion for a while, and even the limelight of Mengyuxi, a stunning beauty, was covered up, and the Liang family, the Zhang family, and the county guard mansion were all face-screwed, and they sent people to find the traces of the young man, and at the same time secretly investigated his origin, but this person sank into the sea like a stone, disappeared, and never appeared in Xiangfan City again.
Three days later, Qi An's injuries were mostly better, so he resigned to Mengyuxi, and he had to report to the Shendaowei Reserve Camp, so it was impossible to hide in Mengyuxi all the time without seeing anyone.
Meng Yuxi asked where he was going, and knew that he was going to Heishui County, so he sent Chen Liu to send him out of the city in a carriage. If it weren't for this, it would be difficult for Qi An to get out of the city safely, as long as he showed his face, he would not be able to escape the eyes of the Liang family, the Zhang family and the county guard, and he was afraid that he would have another conflict with these forces.
The heritage and power of the Sun Moon Tower are far stronger than those of these local families, and even the personal soldiers of the county guard do not dare to search the carriage with the emblem of the Sun Moon Tower.
Qi An sat in the carriage, went out of the city from the east gate without any danger, came to the wilderness, and after thanking Chen Liu, he embarked on a journey to Heishui County alone.
Out of Xiangfan City, not far from Heishui County, Qi'an no longer delayed, day and night, two days later, he stepped into the boundary of Heishui County, and saw the Heihe River flowing eastward.
The origin of the name of Heishui County is because of this black river.
The Heihe River originates from the Chiyu Mountains, there is a large amount of black-brown soil in the Chiyu Mountains, once the Heihe River is at high tide, it will roll the black-brown soil along both sides of the river into the water, causing the river to be turbid and black, so it is named after the Heihe.
The Heihe River runs from west to east, runs through the entire Heishui County, and then flows to the neighboring Jiaozhou.
But with the flow of the river, the black mud gradually deposited, the water color gradually returned to Qingming, so the further downstream, the lighter the water color, out of the Heishui County, the Heihe River is no longer turbid, back to the normal color, so the Heihe River to Jiaozhou, it is no longer called the Black River, but renamed the Surabaya River.
The word Si represents Shuanglong out of the abyss, and the Heihe River arrives in Jiaozhou, which is no longer just a share, but is divided into two, flowing in parallel, and is named after Surabaya.
Although the Sword King Mansion is the actual controller of the entire Qingzhou, it is not located in the county seat, but is built on the edge of the Qinghu Lake, five hundred miles south of Heishui City.
Qinghu Lake is the largest lake in Qingzhou, from west to east, across the four counties of Gushan, Fufeng, Xiangfan and Heishui, the lake water is clear, the smoke waves are vast, and it covers a vast area, just like the inland sea.
The famous Qinghu Sword Gate in Qingzhou, its mountain gate is located on an island in the middle of the vast Qinghu Lake, and the Daowang Mansion is on the east bank of Qinghu Lake, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the terrain is dangerous.
Qinghu Lake is not only the first big lake in Qingzhou, but also the second largest lake in the Daqian Dynasty, in addition to the Qiandao Lake in Zhongzhou, even the Luanshan Lake in Chuzhou is much smaller than its area, and the name of Qingzhou is also because of Qinghu.
Qi An went all the way east along the bank of the Heihe River, and after a few days, he arrived at Heishui City, turned to the south, and after another day, he came to the edge of Qinghu, and soon after, the Sword King's Mansion was also in sight.
It is said to be a palace, but it is actually a city, and this city occupies a large area, although it is not as good as the county town, but it is far beyond the ordinary county seat.
There were no inhabitants in the city, only soldiers, all of whom wore armor and swords, and there was an aura of iron-blooded slaughter everywhere.
The so-called Sword King's Mansion is an independent city dominated by a militarized style, which is divided into two parts: the outer city and the inner fortress.
The outer city is the military camp, there are 5,000 black cavalry and 30,000 ironclad troops, as well as those reserve battalions, logistics teams, etc., nearly 100,000 people, almost all of them are in the outer city, and the inner city is located in the center of the outer city, is a magnificent castle built of black and gray rocks, most of the clansmen and disciples of the Liu family of the sword king live in the castle, of course, there are eight hundred divine sword guards.
The surname of the sword king is Liu, the name is Yuanshan, because of his kingship, the entire Liu family has jumped to the first-class Xiuzhen family of the Daqian Dynasty in one fell swoop, only under the five major families in Zhongzhou.
If Zhongzhou is excluded and only limited to Qingzhou, then the Liu family is the top big family in Qingzhou, not to mention the great cultivators of God Refining, and even Rongyuan Zhenren has a lot, which can be comparable to the top sects like the Five Holy Sects and the Valley of Forgotten Worries.
In the previous dynasty, there was no king with a different surname, and all the courtiers with different surnames could only be marquis at most, and the Liu family at that time was just an obscure small family of Xiuzhen, just because there was a Liu Yuanshan later, who was extremely talented, cultivated to Tongtian, and helped Emperor Qianhuang overthrow the previous dynasty and became a great hero of the founding of the country, so he was named the king of swords, and gave the land of Qingzhou, which also drove the entire Liu family to flourish and became the most powerful Xiuzhen family in Qingzhou.
This is the enlightenment of one person, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven.
In fact, since the Liu family was the sword king Liu Yuanshan, there have never been earth-shattering geniuses, but a large number of masters have sprung up, not only the great cultivators of the god refining gods, but also the real people of Rongyuan, which is not how high the cultivation talent of the Liu family is, but the effect of the accumulation of a large number of resources.
The land of a state is so vast and vast, and how rich the resources are, and the Sword King Mansion occupies nearly half, and the remaining half is divided by many cultivation forces such as the Valley of Forgotten Worries, the Five Holy Sects, and the Qinghu Sword Gate.
Today's Daqian Dynasty, although nominally under the command of Emperor Qian, is actually divided by the princes, the heroes rise together, the royal Li family can control only the land of Zhongzhou, the remaining eight states, but by the eight heavenly kings each control, can be called the country within the country.
The Sword King's Mansion is equivalent to the royal capital of this country within a country; Liu Yuanshan, the Sword King, is the soil emperor of the entire Qingzhou; and the Dao King's edict is more effective than the emperor's edict in the territory of Qingzhou.
But in fact, the army of the Sword King Mansion is not much, the eight hundred divine sword guards are not counted as personal guard troops, the main force of the battlefield is five thousand black cavalry and thirty thousand iron armor army, a total of 35,000 people, plus thousands of reserve troops, the total number of troops that can be mobilized by the Sword King Mansion will not exceed 50,000, compared to the 100,000 Imperial Forest Army in Zhongzhou Imperial City, the number is far from the same.
However, it is precisely because there are not many of them that they are more elite.
The 30,000 Ironclad Army is considered to be the main regular force, and every sergeant has at least the strength of a martial artist; the 5,000 Black Cavalry Army can be called the elite, and the worst is the Innate Martial Sect; and the 800 Divine Sword Guards are the elite of the elite, and they must be at the peak of condensation to be expected to join.
You must know that the ordinary local garrison, the regular soldiers only have the level of samurai, which is a realm lower than the ironclad army of the Sword King's Mansion, and the garrison of the county town is only one or two thousand, and the garrison of the county town is only five hundred to one thousand, and the local troops of the entire Qingzhou are not the opponent of the 30,000 ironclad army, and the military strength of the Sword King's Mansion can be said to be the best in the entire Qingzhou.
Of course, compared to the three top sects such as the Five Holy Sects, the Valley of Forgotten Worries, and the Qinghu Sword Sect, the Sword King Mansion only has a numerical advantage, and it does not have an advantage in terms of high-end strength, and is even at a disadvantage.
