Chapter 108: Cangmang City

After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Nan took out two jade bottles and handed them to Sima Zhongqing, and said, "These are the two bottles of pills I got a long time ago, one can make you temporarily lose your cultivation, and the other is an elixir that can restore your cultivation, Brother Sima should weigh it yourself if you take the risk or not."

Sima Zhongqing took the two bottles of pills without hesitation, poured out an elixir that could make people temporarily lose their cultivation, and swallowed it in one gulp, and said very boldly: "Why don't you dare? If you don't dare to take this risk, I, Sima Zhongqing, am too gutsy." ”

The four of them turned over the last hill, and finally saw a huge city in the distance, a high tower in the center went straight into the sky, the city wall made of bluestone bricks faintly revealed a majesty, a huge plaque at the gate of the city hung high, and three vigorous and powerful characters were written on it: "Cangmang City".

The soldiers on the walls of the city looked energetic, wearing gold and armor, armed with spears and bows and arrows, and their eyes were constantly scanning inside and outside the city gates, always keeping an eye on every move in all directions, and they seemed very cautious.

Xiao Nan could see that there was still a large array on the periphery of this reckless city, but at this moment, this large array was still in a closed state, and presumably only when the enemy invaded, the large array would be opened.

The gates of Cangmang City were open, but it seemed that not everyone could enter, and there were two soldiers standing in front of the gates, who were strictly controlling them at the moment.

"Young Master Sima, why are you back?" The soldiers guarding the city glanced at Sima Zhongqing, almost not scared, and couldn't even speak.

"What's the matter? Could it be that I can't come back yet?" Sima Zhongqing glanced coldly at the soldier defending the city who spoke.

"No, no, the little ones don't dare. The soldier who defended the city trembled a little.

"It's good if you don't dare. Sima Zhongqing nodded, "These two behind me are my friends, I should have no problem taking them into the city, right?"

"No, of course. It's just that the soldiers defending the city couldn't help but glance at Zhuo Yunji, how could they not know the daughter of Zhuo Yitian, the leader of the Yunyi Gang? Everyone knows that the relationship between the Sima family and the Yunyi Gang is not compatible, if Zhuo Yunji is just let in like this, then wouldn't they die?

"What? Could it be that you have an opinion about Yun'er?" said Sima Zhongqing coldly.

"Young Master Sima's life!" The two soldiers defending the city almost didn't kneel down to Sima Zhongqing.

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded: "Who doesn't have long eyes dares to let our young lady enter the city?

"Ninth Uncle!" Zhuo Yunji immediately exclaimed, and soon saw a tall and thin man with a scar on his face appear at the city gate.

The scar man glanced at everyone, and quickly said, "Miss, the helper is already waiting for you, go back with Lao Jiu." ”

Zhuo Yunji glanced at Sima Zhongqing reluctantly, and when she saw Sima Zhongqing nodding, she walked forward, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight with the scar man.

As soon as the two left, another figure flashed out of thin air, but it was a young man, quite handsome, but he was somewhat similar to Sima Zhongqing.

"Lord Boyang. The two defenders hurriedly saluted.

"No need to be polite. The young man waved his hand, looked at Sima Zhongqing again, and said, "Second brother, the eldest brother finally arranged for you to leave, why did you come back by yourself?"

This young man is Sima Zhongqing's eldest brother, named Sima Boyang, and the eldest son of Sima Changfeng, the head of the Sima family.

"Big brother. Sima Zhongqing called out and said with some emotion: "This matter is a long story, and we are also forced to be helpless." ”

"Huh!" Sima Boyang suddenly exclaimed, "Second brother, why did your cultivation suddenly fall victim to someone's poisonous hands?"

"Big brother, let's go to the city first, I have been plotted by villains before, if it weren't for the help of Brother Xiao and his wife behind me, I'm afraid that this time I have already returned to heaven, now I need to see my father, and some things need to be reported to him in person." Sima Zhongqing said with a sigh.

"Oh?" Sima Boyang furrowed his eyebrows, then looked at Xiao Nan and Xi Qianyue, and quickly said, "Since that's the case, let's go home quickly." ”

Entering Cangmang City, but seeing that the prosperity of the city is no less than any city that Xiao Nan has seen before, there are all kinds of shops and buildings, large and small stacks can be seen everywhere, and the attics and caves are connected. The streets are full of people, and although they are not as spectacular as the busy traffic, it is not uncommon to rub shoulders with each other.

The most terrifying thing is the tower that reaches into the sky, and I don't know what it is for, anyway, Xiao Nan has never seen a more spectacular building before this.

The surface of the tower is rune, and the desolate atmosphere can be felt from afar, although it looks a little old, so that there are some traces of pits on the bluestone on the surface, but it gives people a deeper feeling.

After walking for a while, Sima Boyang turned his head to look at Xiao Nan and Xi Qianyue, and said, "The two of you are Zhongqing's life-saving benefactors, and I want to invite you to live in our Sima Mansion for a few days, I don't know what the two of you think?"

Xi Qianyue didn't speak, just looked at Xiao Nan, anyway, all her actions were based on Xiao Nan's words.

Xiao Nan bowed apologetically and said, "Young Master Sima warmly invited, I shouldn't have refused, it's just that the two of us have just come to Cangmang City, and we haven't had time to experience the many pleasures of Cangmang City, so I'm really sorry." ”

"It doesn't matter. Sima Boyang waved his hand, "Since this is the case, I won't force the two of you, but the door of our Sima Mansion is always open for the two of you, waiting for you to come at any time." ”

"Then I'll thank Young Master Sima in advance. Xiao Nan nodded.

"You're welcome. Sima Boyang waved his hand, a smile on his face.

At this time, Sima Zhongqing opened his mouth and said, "Brother Xiao, I'll go back first, and I'll come back to you when I'm almost done dealing with things." ”

"Hmm. Xiao Nan nodded.

It wasn't until Sima Boyang and Sima Zhongqing disappeared from Xiao Nan's sight that Xiao Nan turned around and said to Xi Qianyue beside him: "Let's go find a home to live in first, anyway, don't worry, come out for a walk tomorrow." ”

"Brother Xiao Nan will do whatever he wants. Yu Qianyue nodded.

The two of them found the nearest resting stack, handed over the divine crystal, entered the room, and arranged several prohibitions.

"Brother Xiao Nan, I always think that Sima Boyang is a little weird, could it really be that he sent someone to assassinate Sima Zhongqing?"

"Is it? Why can't I notice it at all?" Xiao Nan frowned.

"I can't say it, but I think it's a little weird in my heart. "The light moon shook its head gently.
