Chapter 0054: First Arrival in Cuiliuzhuang
From the moment he was asked to meet in Wild Wolf Gully that night, Xia Mo concluded that the woman was by no means simple. Especially Xiuwei, Xia Mo didn't even have the certainty of a confrontation.
Such a person must have a huge power behind him, and he has a high status in Qingyan City.
But Xia Mo never understood what such a powerful woman was looking for herself, was it because she was handsome?
What's more, people asked him to go to the auction, not to be a door-to-door son-in-law.
Could it be that she sees that she has unlimited potential and wants to win herself over and then train her to become a thug who does things for her?
This is the most likely, otherwise there really wouldn't be a better reason.
"Forget it, go to sleep, everything will be understood when you go. ”
Xia Mo shrugged his shoulders and slept with his clothes closed.
After that, he continued to go to Qingyan City with pedestrians, and nothing happened along the way.
It was close to noon on the third day, and finally came to Qingyan City.
In the distance, you can see the tall and majestic towers, as well as the thick city walls and wide gates.
Although Xia Mo lived in a technological society before his travel, cities with a population of tens of millions can be seen everywhere. But after seeing Qingyan City, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and even a little excited.
None of the metropolises on earth are built with walls, they are all open buildings, and people can come and go as they please.
But this is not the case, even a city with a population of tens of millions is surrounded by walls, gates and towers, and guarded by city guards.
Moreover, the larger the city, the larger the walls, the more difficult it is to climb over.
Like the earth, the city is also divided into hierarchies, but it is not divided into first-tier and second-tier divisions, but first-tier and second-tier.
In the Dragon Court Empire, there is only the Imperial City in the first-class city, which is said to have a population of two billion, which is the absolute core of the entire empire and a place where the strong gather.
Under the imperial city, it is the government office that governs one side of the world, which is a second-class city with a population of hundreds of millions.
Next is the third-level city, also known as the third-level big city, with a population of nearly 100 million and jurisdiction over a territory of thousands of miles.
The fourth-level city, that is, the level of Qingyan City, has a population of about 30 million, and its jurisdiction is around thousands of miles.
The lowest is the fifth-level city, which is also known as the fifth-level small city. Tianxie City is a city of this level, with a population of no more than three million.
The fifth-level small city has a jurisdiction of about 100 miles.
Therefore, although there is only one level difference, the scale of the city is simply heaven and earth, and there is no comparison at all.
Not to mention Xia Mo from the earth, even the people born and raised in the Brave Continent will be shocked after coming to the big city from a small place.
Many people stopped a hundred feet away from the city gate, looking up at the high city wall and wide city gate, the excitement was self-evident, and all kinds of emotions also rose one after another.
Although Xia Mo did not stop to watch deliberately, his eyes were still often on the tall building in front of him, and he felt that the people here really dared to do it, and they were not afraid of the large amount of work.
However, what shocked Xia Mo the most were the three giant block letters of 'Qingyan City' carved above the city gate and glowing with dazzling golden rays.
Although the size has not been measured, it is estimated that the length and width will not be less than two zhang, and it can be seen clearly from miles away.
There is another thing that Xia Mo is more interested in, that is, the construction materials of this city are all bluestone, whether it is the city wall or the floor, there is not a single miscellaneous stone.
This is also the origin of the name of Qingyan City.
Xia Mo followed the flow of people towards the city gate, and he was not interrogated by the city guards, and entered the city smoothly.
It seems that there is nothing major happening in Qingyan City, at least, not at the moment.
Stepping into the city, the unique ancient prosperity will be greeted by you.
A ten-foot-wide street stretches straight into the city, with no end in sight.
On both sides of the street, there are wooden pavilions with more than ten to twenty floors, although they are not as tall as the earth's high-rise buildings, but they have an indescribable domineering.
Shops of all sizes line the streets, and the sound of selling and bargaining is endless.
The streets are full of people, traffic, and bustling.
Continuing to walk forward, there will be smaller streets crossing and connecting every three to five hundred zhang, cutting the city into regular squares, making the whole city appear to be orderly and chaotic.
Xia Mo was not in a hurry, and slowly walked in the flow of people, admiring the city comparable to the international first-tier cities on the earth.
At the same time, he was also imagining how terrifying the higher-level cities would be.
After walking for about half a pillar of incense, Xia Mo heard the rumbling sound from his stomach, and his hunger immediately rose. This is especially true when I smell the smell of all kinds of food.
But Xia Mo wasn't going to pay for meals or snacks, someone was waiting for him anyway, wasn't he?
So, Xia Mo found a kind-looking old man nearby to ask for directions.
"Uncle, how do you get to Cuiliuzhuang?"
The old man didn't answer immediately, he looked Xia Mo up and down before frowning and saying, "Young man, are you going to Cuiliuzhuang?"
"Yes. Xia Mo nodded.
The old man looked at Xia Mo again and comforted: "Young man, Cuiliuzhuang is not something that ordinary people can go to, you better dispel this idea." ”
Xia Mo also looked at himself, only to find that the outfit was really shabby, no wonder the old man would say so.
But Xia Mo didn't say anything else, and continued to smile: "Uncle, someone is waiting for me there." ”
"Hey~~~"
The old man let out a long sigh and stretched out his hand to point ahead: "You keep going forward until you reach the eighteenth intersection to the east, and then go to the sixteenth intersection to the north." ”
Then he walked ten more intersections west and south to the end. ”
"Thank you, uncle, good people live a long life!" Xia Mo thanked him and walked forward.
Looking at Xia Mo's back, the old man stroked his beard and said to himself: "Do you hear clearly, it's so urgent, it's hard to become a big tool!"
"However, I hope that he will go wrong, so as not to be severely hit, and like those people, when he goes and returns, he will never recover, and become a waste of wine to kill his sorrows. ”
How did the old man know that Xia Mo, who had crossed over, already had the ability to never forget and never forget, and the path he said had long been engraved in Xia Mo's mind.
Therefore, Xia Mo traveled quickly without making a mistake, and it only took less than half a column of incense to reach the destination.
In the process of traveling, Xia Mo found an imagination, the closer he got here, the less people flowed. By the end of the street, he was the only one left.
Moreover, there are people secretly talking about something behind their backs.
Xia Mo didn't care about this, and walked straight inside.
At the end of the street, it is also the gate of Cuiliuzhuang, which is very grand.
Just the two bluestone lions at the door are three feet high, lifelike and domineering.
The gate is made of pure copper, with a bulge the size of a bowl on it, arranged horizontally and vertically, neatly and uniformly.
Four stone pillars of one hug thick support the huge door. The plaque inlaid with three golden characters of 'Cuiliuzhuang' hangs high above the door, which is quite imposing.
At the door, stood four big men with large knives in their hands, all of them shirtless, revealing muscles full of strength.
When he saw Xia Mo walking towards the gate, one of the big men raised his hand and pointed at Xia Mo and opened his mouth to shout: "Stop! Where is the hairy boy from here, dare to trespass on my Cuiliu Villa and look for death?"
"Your master is waiting for me inside. Xia Mo replied, and his steps did not stop.
After listening to Xia Mo's words, the four big men couldn't help but sneer and looked at Liu Feng with disdain.
The big man who shouted just now spoke again: "Boy, your tone is not small, do you think you are worthy to see our master?" You better get out immediately, if you don't listen, don't cry if you are abolished!"
Xia Mo didn't say anything more, and continued to walk forward, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
