Chapter 62: The Five Giant Deer Families Say Rules
After the fight, the two killed a few blind horse thieves on the way, and rode instead. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Two people and two horses, Xu Beiyou finally got rid of the "claws" of Song Guanguan, and then did not stop, day and night, about three days later, in the sweet and greasy sound of the son, the two finally saw the majestic outline of Julu City.
Because of the mutual market of Julu City, guests from all over the world come, and there is basically no curfew in Julu City at this time, and the gates of the city are open on all sides, allowing pedestrians to enter and exit. However, just three miles outside the city, there is a cavalry army of more than 30,000 people, and as long as Xiao Maha, the king of Lingwu County, gives an order, he can enter the city at any time.
The two of them stationed in front of the city, Xu Beiyou looked up at the head of Julu City, this Xiongcheng still has traces of the Great War, weathered, after vicissitudes, if the capital city is a general in the prime of life, then Julu City is an old pawn in the twilight of life, without the glory of the past, only full of scars.
After stopping for a long time, Xu Beiyou never spoke.
Song Guanguan said with a smile: "There is nothing to see in the current Julu City, push forward for a few decades, there are people who sell things, sell people, sell people in this city, there are all kinds of strange, as long as there is money, there is nothing that cannot be bought." ”
Xu Beiyou said calmly: "Money is a good thing." ”
Song Guanguan blinked and said, "Childe, it's not the work of a master to put money on his lips, and the masters in this world regard money as dung." ”
Xu Beiyou laughed at himself: "Where is the master? It is not easy to be a man with his head held high in the world." ”
Song Guanguan lowered his head thoughtfully.
Xu Beiyou continued: "It is even more difficult to be a master in a dignified manner. ”
There was a moment of silence between the two.
"Childe. ”
"Huh?"
"Shall we go into town?"
"Let's go, let's go into town!"
Wanli grassland is a world of the jungle, Julu City is like a transcendent pure land, there is no killing here, there are rules one after another, but these complex rules are not put into words, most of them are unwritten rules passed down by word of mouth.
Here, there is also the most complicated story in the world, maybe the storyteller who drinks and talks in the roadside restaurant used to be a famous party in the Central Plains to welcome guests from all over the world, maybe the drunken drunkard, there was also a Tsing Yi sword fight, maybe the bloody butcher with a butcher knife in his hand, in the past was the enemy of ten thousand people on the battlefield. Even the little girl with two ponytails bouncing on the side of the road can't be underestimated, who knows if she is a master in the realm of rejuvenation?
In addition to these hidden people in the city, there are many outlaws who have fled here, Jiangyang thieves, assassin killers, and even horse thieves who have made a windfall to retire here, plus the spies of the Secret Guard Mansion, the traveling missionaries of the Daomen, the elite armor of the Northwest Frontier Army, the caravans of the chambers of commerce in various places, the grassland people, and the Houjian people, Julu City is no longer a pool of muddy water, but a quagmire that is easy to enter and difficult to come out.
The more chaotic the place, the more rules are emphasized, but this rule is very dark, and many people who set foot in Julu City for the first time have no chance to learn the rules before they have figured out the rules.
Julu City has never been afraid of killing, but every dead person must die according to the rules, if anyone dares to kill people according to the rules, then whether it is Xiao Maha, the owner of Julu City, or someone else, there will always be someone who comes forward to tell the person who does not follow the rules what the rules of Julu City are.
It's not that there are people who dare to ignore the rules of Julu City and can be safe and sound, but there are very few, such as the hall master of the Demon Suppression Palace, such as Gongsun Zhongmou.
The former is because of its identity, which can already make the entire Julu City look up to it.
The latter is because of its cultivation, the basis of power is force, when force reaches a certain level, it can transcend many rules and principles.
This is also why people in the Sword Sect often say that everything in the world is nothing more than a sword matter.
The two did not enter the city from the west gate of Julu City, which was close at hand, but went around in a circle, entering the city from the south gate of Julu City, Xu Beiyou knew that according to the records of the Taiping Huanyu Chronicle, the former city lord's mansion, which is now the Lingwu County Palace, is not facing the south and turning the back to the north, but ingeniously doing the opposite, facing the north and turning the south, and entering from the south gate is to appear in the back of the Lingwu County Palace, just avoiding the most mixed place in the front city.
Before entering the city, Song Guanguan gave Xu Beiyou a lot of rules in the city, but most of them were just point-to-point, after all, in her opinion, Xu Beiyou is the young master of the Sword Sect, and with the sect master here, he has to be regarded as a dragon crossing the river, so he doesn't have to care too much about these so-called rules, but those few local snake sects and families, pay attention to one or two, these are the people who make the rules.
After entering the city, Song Guanguan pointed to several towering watchtowers and said: "A watchtower is a family, which is also one of the rules of Julu City, only by crossing that line can you be qualified to build a watchtower, and now there are five watchtowers, that is, there are five." Among them, the highest watchtower is the Wang Xiao family of Lingwu County, and the rest are the Wei family, the Min family, Shi family and Xuanshui Pavilion, except for Xuanshui Pavilion is a monastic sect, the rest of the family are deep-rooted families, and several major families of the current dynasty have an inextricable relationship, among which the Min family is the descendant of the sixth Shenguo Gong Min Xing in the Lingyan Pavilion meritorious heroes, the Min Xing of that year was resentful because of the failure of the struggle for power with Wei Ban, and later Min Xing and Han Xiong were involved in rebellion and were executed by the first emperor Xiao Yu, but Xiao Huang was grateful for his merits and did not implicate his family, but moved the Min family to Julu City, which was taken care of by Xiao Shu, the king of Lingwu County at that time, and later the son of Min Xing changed Min to Min, so there is today's Min family。 ”
Xu Beiyou asked in surprise: "So, the Wei family is the Wei family of the Metropolitan Governor Wei Ban?"
Song Guanguan explained: "Wei Ban as the governor of the current dynasty, in charge of the capital governor's mansion, is unspeakably expensive, his lineage family is still located in the imperial capital, but after the conclusion of the alliance of Daliang City, Wei Ban was ordered by Emperor Xiao to pass through Julu City, and left an illegitimate son here, and later with the support of Wei Ban, this illegitimate son created the Wei family in Julu City, with today's family business, barely a side branch of the Wei family in the imperial capital. ”
Xu Beiyou frowned, along the way, he heard two thunderous names, one is Lan Yu, and the other is Wei Ban, both of them are extremely human ministers, one is one and one martial arts, relatively speaking, Wei Ban is a little low-key, and Lan Yu has the style of no one in the world who does not know the king, and even has some merit to cover the master.
Xu Beiyou then asked, "The Shi family?"
Song Guanguan said with a smile: "Or the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, ranked twenty-two Dingwu Hou Shile, was originally the old department of Lin Han, the king of Zhenbei, after Lin Han became the prince of the grassland, Shi Le served as the governor of the capital governor's mansion, and then because of the public case in the first year of Chengping, he was removed from the position of the governor of the same governor, Shi Le returned to Xiliangzhou, and secretly served the old lord of the town of Beiwang, under the secret help of the royal court, in the twelfth year of Chengping, the establishment of today's Shi family in Julu City, although the foundation is shallow, but not to be underestimated. ”
Without waiting for Xu Beiyou to ask, Song Guanguan had already continued: "As for the Xuanshui Pavilion, the origin is mysterious, whether it is our Sword Qi Lingkong Hall or the Demon Suppression Palace, we can't find our roots, but when the slave family was with the sect master, I heard the sect master mention one or two, this Xuanshui Pavilion should have some inexplicable relationship with Houjian Murong Xuanyin, and there is even the shadow of Houjian Xuanjiao." ”
Xu Beiyou felt that there was a line in his mind that was about to be connected.
Zhenbei Wang and Shi Jia.
Murong Xuanyin and Xuanshui Pavilion.
Emperor Xiao and King Lingwu.
Coupled with the Daomen Sword Sect, more than half of the most famous forces in the world actually gathered in Julu City?
The two walked on the bluestone paved street, and several middle-aged strong men who seemed to be locals slowly surrounded the two.
Song Guanguan took two steps forward and threw out a few pieces of loose silver.
After the middle-aged strong man took the silver, he weighed it twice in the palm of his hand, looked at the two of them again, and turned to leave.
Seeing Xu Beiyou's surprise, Song Guanguan chuckled and said: "The king of Hades is good, the little ghost is difficult, and it is not worth entangling with these earth snakes for a few taels of broken silver." ”
Xu Beiyou nodded, and suddenly asked, "By the way, official, what realm are you?"
Song Guanguan laughed softly: "Above the ghosts and immortals, below the human immortals, they are not masters, it is enough to kill some little minions." ”
