Chapter Ninety-Nine: It's Hard to Tell the Truth
Emperor Yan City is worthy of being the capital of the Yama Kingdom. The cultivators and soldiers here, all of them are in the middle stage of enlightenment. Under this entire city wall, the number of junior cultivator soldiers has reached a terrifying 10,000 people.
During this period, Shen Chong has been to more than a dozen cities such as Red Tiger City and Jingma City, those ordinary city garrisons, most of the soldiers are just ordinary people who have practiced the breathing and breathing method, and the most junior cultivator in the early stage of enlightenment can become the captain of a hundred-person garrison.
But compared with Emperor Yan City, which even had an enlightening period for the soldiers guarding the city, those cities were not at the same level at all.
It was only at this moment that Shen Chong could be regarded as having a deeper understanding of the strength of the Huangquan Realm's cultivation realm.
The strength of Emperor Yan City alone was enough to sweep through the entire world of cultivators in Shen Chong's hometown, the Nascent Realm.
"Don't look at Chong'er and Qin'er, since you have already come to Emperor Yan City, Sister Rou will definitely take you to play and watch slowly. On the carriage at the leader of the convoy next to him, Ying Rou, who was dressed in white, smiled softly at Shen Chong and said, "Now, let's hurry into the city." ”
"Sister Rou, don't ......be in a hurry" In Lang's laughter, Shen Chong's whole person jumped easily, crossed a distance of more than ten meters, and landed lightly beside Xu Tianjun.
Qin'er also hurriedly returned to Ying Rou's side.
The convoy of three carriages, under the protection of more than a dozen junior cultivators, slowly drove towards the city gate.
The huge city gate, like the mouth of a giant beast, constantly swallows a huge flow of people.
The city gate guards who led the team, after carefully checking the token of the Prime Minister's Mansion handed over by Ying Rou, immediately respectfully gave a military salute to the convoy, and instructed below: "It's the convoy of the Prime Minister's Mansion, let it go!"
The soldiers retreated neatly, making way for a wider passage.
Being able to receive such courtesy from the defenders, Shen Chong's convoy immediately attracted the curious and envious eyes of the surrounding people.
At the same time, a faint gaze also noticed the convoy, it was a junior cultivator dressed as an ordinary person, and after identifying the identities of Ying Rou and Xu Tianjun and others, he immediately took advantage of the flow of people to quickly squeeze towards the city.
Because of the thickness of the city walls, the passage of the city gate appears to be dark and long. In the unhurried forward of the convoy, it took a while for the heads of Shen Chong and the others to light up again.
Inside the city gate, there is the city of Emperor Yan. It's a completely different scene from the outside.
The streets are wide and neat, all paved with cyan boulders. The shops are lined up one after another, all of which are antique, beam-painted wood and stone buildings. Even the pedestrians on the street wore clothes that were more gorgeous and high-end than the people of Jingma City that Shen Chong had seen before, showing the prosperity of the capital of the Yama Kingdom.
Shen Chong is a native of the new world, he has never seen such a simple and strange architecture and urban pattern, recalling the experience of coming to the Huangquan world, to this day, he still feels so unreal, everything is like a dream.
Seeing Shen Chong and Qin'er, they were like villagers entering the city, constantly looking left and right curiously. Xu Tianjun and Ying Rou didn't bother either, just smiled and watched from the sidelines.
"The convoy in front, stop immediately!" Suddenly, a loud cheer rang out.
Shen Chong, Xu Tianjun and the others looked stunned, at this moment, the car had reached a wide intersection, and nearly a hundred soldiers in armor who were waiting for the battle were neatly stopped in the direction of the convoy.
The surrounding passers-by suddenly jumped and hurriedly hid to the side, for fear that such a battle would affect them.
"It's the patrol force of Emperor Yan City. Xu Tianjun frowned slightly, and said to Shen Chong: "It's different from the city defense army guarding the city wall when we entered the city just now. The city defense army was responsible for the external defense of the entire imperial capital and the order of the city gates. The patrol army in front of him is responsible for the security and inspection matters within the capital......"
"Oh~" Shen Chong listened to the words and observed carefully, and sure enough, he found that the patrol army composed of more than 100 junior cultivators was slightly different from the city defense army he saw just now in terms of military uniforms and weapons.
"The most important thing is that these patrols are now secretly controlled by Ling Bing. At this moment, I want to see what tricks they want to play?" Xu Tianjun's tone did not show a trace of emotion, obviously not very interested in the patrol troops.
"Blind your dog's eyes! This is the convoy of the Prime Minister's Mansion! Don't get out of the way quickly!" Following the escort leader of the infant convoy, a middle-aged cultivator immediately stepped out of the queue and shouted loudly.
"Presumptuous! The patrol force is carrying out military affairs, what are you that dare to shout here?" a cultivator dressed in the armor of the commander came out of the crowd and looked at the leader of the infant convoy coldly. Immediately, his face sank, one hand turned into a claw, and while speaking, he quickly grabbed it.
The team leader was only Ning Dan's cultivation in the early stage, and at this moment, he was locked by the momentum of the patrol commander who was much stronger than himself, and his face immediately changed greatly, and he hurriedly retreated. But his cultivation is not as good as the other party, how can he be faster than the other party?
No wonder you dare to be so rampant. Feeling the aura of the patrol commander, Shen Chong's heart moved slightly, but the aura in his body was running rapidly, ready to strike at any time.
"Stop!" In a gentle but implicit angry voice, the commander of the patrol force paused slightly, and the leader of the convoy took the opportunity to quickly retreat to the carriage.
Ying Rou's face was calm, but she looked at the commander with a sense of majesty: "I am Ying Rou, the granddaughter of the Prime Minister of the Infant State, this is the token of the Prime Minister's Mansion! Could it be that intercepting the vehicles of the Prime Minister's Mansion on the street like this is the way for your patrol force to carry out military affairs!?"
The commander smiled on his face, but his eyes unabashedly revealed an obscene look: "Haha, the last general will be overlooked, it turns out that it is our fox clan's Miss Yingrou......!
He pretended to be unintentional and swept his eyes, and seemed to be very surprised to see Xu Tianjun: "Hey, isn't this Xu Gongzi? When did you become Miss Yingrou's follower?"
Xu Tianjun's face turned cold: "Fang Zun, although you are one of the commanders of the patrol force, don't you think you are too lenient?"
That Fang Zun laughed, but he didn't care that Xu Tianjun was angry, he just said to himself: "I remember that the convoy went out of the city half a month ago, and Miss Yingrou didn't go with Xu Gongzi, why did you go back to the city together at this moment!?"
"Oh, could it be that Miss Yingrou went out of the city for half a month, in order to welcome Xu Gongzi who returned from traveling?" Fang Zun beside him, a deputy general hurriedly picked up the conversation.
"Tsk!" This time, even Shen Chong's brows furrowed tightly.
Xu Tianjun also saw Shen Chong's unhappiness, and immediately said sincerely: "Brother Xian, I'm sorry, I just arrived in Emperor Yan City, and I let you encounter such an unpleasant thing. ”
"It's okay!" Shen Chong smiled, knowing that it had caused Xu Tianjun's misunderstanding, and replied: "Big brother, looking at the appearance of this guy, it seems that he was ordered by someone to come to interrogate you about your whereabouts." ”
Xu Tianjun sighed helplessly: "Did the virtuous brother also find out? In fact, I had this guess from the time they started to block the road. It's just that they are so difficult and entangled, I can't think about it. After all, this party is in the name of inspection......"
Shen Chong's heart moved slightly, and he said with a smile: "Big brother don't worry. In my opinion, since they will make a special trip to test it like this, at least one point is that the whereabouts of the eldest brother you have left Emperor Yan City for two months, they have not yet mastered it, so they will try their best to make it difficult and tempted. There is an old saying in our new world called 'virtual is real, real is virtual', in this case, caution will lead to suspicion, we might as well simply make a big fuss, they see that we have no ghosts in our hearts, but they can't tell our real movements. ”
"'Fiction is real, reality is fiction', witty words, really witty words!" Xu Tianjun muttered, his eyes shining: "In that case, Brother Shen Chongxian, what should we do?"
Xu Tianjun found that his brother could say something philosophical from time to time, which was full of philosophy and had the true meaning of governing the country and using soldiers. How could he guess that it was different from the countries of the Yellow Springs Realm, which relied on the strength of the cultivators themselves as the foundation of the country. The wars of the countries of the new world are all fought with wisdom, which has been accumulated since ancient times, and naturally Shen Chong recited a few sentences casually, which are famous words for words.
"Big brother rest assured. You and Sister Ying Rou don't need to make a move, leave this matter to me. Since they want to test us, we will make a big deal out of it and give them a false and difficult to distinguish between the real and the false. Shen Chong had a meaningful smile on his face, his eyes were firmly locked on Fang Zun in the late stage of transformation, and the momentum on his body instantly climbed to the peak.
At this moment, Fang Zun also noticed Shen Chong beside Xu Tianjun, and after feeling the momentum of the other party that was even stronger than himself, he changed color slightly.
The reason why he dared to intercept the convoy of the Prime Minister's Mansion so blatantly on the street was because of Ling Bing's double order, and on the other hand, it was Xu Tianjun and Ying Rou, who were inferior to him in cultivation, and their superiority in strength made him even more unscrupulous. However, the strange young man in front of him, although he only had the aura of the early stage of transformation, the momentum on his body was extremely powerful, which also gave birth to some pressure in Fang Zun's heart.
Although there was pressure, Fang Zun was not afraid of Shen Chong, after all, he still had nearly a hundred junior cultivators, so he was not jealous of such a battle. Thinking that he was actually taken by Shen Chong's momentum, Fang Zun's face was immediately not good-looking, and he turned his head to stare at Shen Chong and asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm Shen Chong. Shen Chong's eyes were sharp, his face was expressionless, and he said coldly: "Fang Zun, right? Get out of the way immediately, don't force me to do it!"
Emperor Yama had clearly stipulated that it was absolutely forbidden for cultivators in his country to fight each other without a legitimate reason. Shen Chong's words just now were undoubtedly a naked threat to a cultivator like Fang Zun who was familiar with his country's regulations.
"Hahaha!" Fang Zun laughed angrily, waved his hand and ordered: "Fence them up for me!"
Nearly 100 patrol troops suddenly moved when they heard the sound, and quickly divided into three groups, one group surrounded the carriage that Shen Chong and Xu Tianjun were riding, the other group surrounded the carriage that Ying Rou and Qin'er were riding, and the third group drove more than ten convoy guards to one place, quickly separating Shen Chong and their original team into three pieces and surrounding them.
