Volume 3 Chapter 104 Night into the White Water Pass
"There are several streets around here, not to mention the taverns and shops that are open, even the doors of ordinary people are not open. Xiao Yao complained.
"Since this road doesn't work, I have to turn to the government for help. Li Yi repented.
"I remember that there was a Zhenxi General's Mansion in this Hanzhong city, and we could try our luck there. Ouyang Jingyi said.
"I know how to get there. Ouyang Lan said, and led the way in front of the head.
Everyone went straight to the Zhenxi General's Mansion.
"Why is it even the General's Mansion like this?" Li Jingwei wondered.
I saw a mansion on the plaque, with five gilded characters of "Zhenxi General's Mansion" printed on the three-foot-long plaque.
There were no guards outside the door, and the gate was closed.
"I'll take a look. Li Yi said and stepped forward.
"Knock, knock, knock. ”
The sound of slamming the door is extremely clear in such a deserted street, and it seems to be pulling at everyone's heartstrings.
For a long time, the gate remained motionless, and there was no movement inside the door, and it was as silent as death.
"It can't be helped, either there's no one in there, or they don't want to pay attention to us. Li Yi turned around and shrugged helplessly.
"What should we do then? Could it be that we are going to sleep on the streets tonight?" Ouyang Lan said worriedly.
"Not really, I remember this place is not too far from Whitewater. Ouyang Jingyi denied.
"Baishui Pass is one of the important transportation hubs from Shuzhong to the outside world, and it is an important military pass of the dynasty, no matter what happens, there must be people there. Tang Feng added.
"It's not too early, let's hurry to Baishui Pass. Xiao Yao said, looking up at the west.
"Let's go. ”
Because there is no one in the city, there is no need to worry about disturbing ordinary mortals, Li Jingwei directly controls not to take off and go to the sword.
Everyone took out their swords and hung them in the air.
Yun'er on the side didn't move, but walked straight towards Li Yicheng and jumped directly on his flying sword.
Li Yicheng was slightly surprised, and didn't make any moves, but just said softly, "Miss Yun'er is standing firm." ”
Yun'er snorted softly.
The people went away with their swords.
On the way.
"Chi Yan, didn't you say that when I reached the Qi Cultivation Realm, he would teach me how to repair the Elven Sword. Li Yiregret suddenly said in his mind.
"What are you anxious about, this seat is a word, the horse is difficult to chase, you have just arrived at this realm now, first consolidate it, and then I will teach you too late." "Red Flame Road.
"Okay. Li Yi reluctantly agreed.
The sun sets, the moon rises, and the stars rise.
"Everyone, pay attention, there is Baishui Guan in front. Qin Shu was in front and reminded him loudly.
When everyone heard this, they also found the pass of the city wall in front of them, and they slowed down one after another.
"Landing. Qin Shu ordered.
Dozens of meters away from the pass, everyone slowly landed.
Sure enough, there were people in Baishui Pass, and as soon as everyone landed, a shout came from the pass and asked, "Who is coming ahead?"
"We are disciples of Shushan, because there is no place to stay at night, I came to Baishuiguan to find a place to stay for one night, and I hope that you will say goodbye. Qin Shu said in a loud voice.
The other party was silent for a while, and then only two words came, "Wait!"
Everyone stopped advancing, and honestly stayed where they were, waiting for the arrangements of the army in front, after all, it was someone's territory. After a while, there was a commotion at the pass, and then a group of soldiers in old armor rushed out with torches, and the leader was vaguely seen as a middle-aged man with stubble, with the most notches in his armor and carrying a long-handled plate axe.
"Contemptible Baishui Guan Guanwei, Wang Zhong, are you immortals from Shu Mountain?" The man who claimed to be Wang Zhong hugged his fists, and his voice was rough and thick.
"Exactly, in Xia Qinshu, I led my younger brothers and sisters to visit late at night, and I was disturbed a lot, and I also looked at Haihan. Qin Shu clasped his fists and saluted, and everyone behind him saluted.
"The immortals don't have to be polite, it's not that Wang Mou can't believe you, Baishuiguan is a military powerhouse, the rules are like this, and you can give Wang a look at the verifiable identity documents and tokens. Wang Zhong said.
"As it should be. Qin Shu said, taking out an object similar to a customs clearance document and a jade pendant from his cuff. "This document is sealed by His Majesty, for my Shushan disciples to travel down the mountain can pass through various passes, this jade pendant is the certificate of Shushan. ”
Wang Zhong took the document and confirmed that it was the emperor's imperial seal of the Dachong Dynasty, and then returned the document with both hands.
"I'm sorry everyone, but it's my duty, and I have to be careful. Wang Zhong apologized again.
"It's okay, Lord Wang is loyal to his duties, as an official should be, now your lord can confirm my identity?"
"I confirmed it, and I confirmed it, and please do it among you. Wang Zhongdao, stretched out his hand and asked Qin Shu and the others to go first.
"It's better for Lord Guan Wei to ask first. Qin Shuqian gave way.
"Haha, let's go together. Wang Zhonghao smiled heartily, and he had a good impression of Qin Shu's humility.
For those in the military, the good thing is face.
Qin Shu followed Wang Zhong, and after everyone, Li Yiregret and Ouyang Lan fell at the end.
"Division...... Senior brother, don't you think it's a little eerie here?" Ouyang Lan said nervously.
Li Yiregret looked around, indeed, there were woods outside Baishui Pass, and it was located in a remote area, there were barren mountains for miles, and it was night, Ouyang Lan was timid and small, so he was inevitably afraid.
"It's okay, we're immortal cultivators, how can any evil ghosts and ghosts dare to approach, and there are so many of us, it's okay. Li Yicheng whispered comforting.
"But...... It's still a little scary......" Ouyang Lan looked around, unconsciously approaching Li Yiregret, and gently pinched his sleeves with both hands.
Li Yicheng naturally noticed it, but it was difficult to avoid it, so he could only pretend not to know.
Ouyang Lan also suddenly realized that she was so close to Senior Brother Li, and her panicked heartbeat never stopped now, but just now it was because she was afraid, and now she was happy.
Ouyang Lan looked around, inexplicably feeling like a thief, but fortunately, no one noticed this, and a slight sweetness rose in the bottom of her heart.
As for why she feels afraid of being discovered, Ouyang Lan once read it in a book, probably because she likes it, so she has a guilty conscience.
Li Yiregret told himself that he couldn't think about this, so he could only divert his attention and look around at this pass. The city wall is higher and thicker than the previous Nanchong City, and there are many broken edges and corners, which seems to have experienced many years of war.
In the past, the city gate was a typical military town, basically the streets were patrolled by soldiers with torches, and there were also a small number of flat-headed people, but regardless of the army and civilians, they all had a common feature - yellow face and thin muscles.
"Lord Wang, the faces of these soldiers seem to have been hungry for a long time. Yun'er noticed it and asked directly.
"Could it be that Lord Wang smoked some oil and water? Xiao Yao took a sip of wine and said with a wicked smile.
Wang Zhong was slightly stunned for a moment, and sighed lightly, "It's not that I, Wang, deduct military salaries, ...... It's really hard to say......"
