Chapter 16 The Imperial City of the Shang Heavenly Kingdom
Ten days later, Li Mo and his entourage arrived at Tielumen.
Before arriving, the battle of Huangquan City had spread throughout the entire Toyoshu territory, and at the same time, it was like a wildfire burning towards the other states and countries.
Wherever the news went, it naturally caused countless Xuanmen to shake.
Since Li Mo entered the Shang Heavenly Kingdom, from the Battle of Wooden Puppet Gate to the Battle of Huangquan City, the reputation achieved in just a few months is a height that others can hardly reach in their lifetimes.
The arrival of Li Mo and several people made Tielumen suddenly the focus of Fengzhou.
After thinking about it again and again, Qu Riying, the owner of the White Crane Tower, finally put down his body and arrived with a large number of sect elders, and the other first- and second-tier sects did not let go of this opportunity.
Divine Powers are not common, not to mention that there are several as soon as they appear, if they get their guidance, it will be a lifelong benefit, not to mention that the identities of both Li Mo and Qin Ke'er are extremely noble, if they have a little relationship, it will be very beneficial to the future of the sect.
On the day of Li Mo's arrival, Tielumen held a lavish feast to celebrate the victory of Huangquan City, which was unprecedented since the founding of the sect.
Since the establishment of the sect, the White Crane Tower has been pressed on the top of the head like a mountain, especially in the past thousand years, with the expansion of the power of the White Crane Tower, the Iron Law Gate has been subject to considerable checks and balances.
Now that Li Mo has come to the Iron Law Gate in person, the sect has raised his eyebrows all of a sudden, and even after facing the White Crane Tower, his waist can be straightened.
And Rui Changsheng was praised by the sect as a great hero, and it was precisely because of his encounter with Li Mo on the Eagle Mountain Lake Village that he laid the foundation for today's events.
Three days later, Li Mo and his entourage left Zong and headed north, arriving at the imperial city two months later.
Located in the center of the White Horse Plain, the Imperial City of the Shang Heavenly Kingdom is the largest city in this thousand-mile plain.
There are a total of eight sub-city arch guards around it, the sub-city alone is already magnificent, three points more grand than the state city, the imperial city is enough to be as big as a few state cities, sitting on millions of buildings, showing the magnificent momentum everywhere.
But of course, this is a mortal city, and it is much inferior to a place like Yanhuangmen.
There was a long queue of traffic in front of the South City Gate, and the guards strictly checked the people and vehicles entering the city.
As soon as she arrived here, Liu Ningxuan was keenly aware of something, and said in surprise, "There is a magic circle in this city, and it is also a big magic circle." ”
"That's the Heavenly Eye Lock Xuan Array, covering the entire Imperial City. ”
Li Mo explained.
"It's so big, isn't that almost the same as the Xuanmen's sect-level defensive array?"
Liu Ningxuan said unexpectedly.
"It's about the same in scale, but it's not the same in terms of role. The sect's defense array is to prevent the invasion of foreign enemies, and this Tianmu Lock Xuan Array is a detection array, specifically aimed at the people in the Xuanmen. Once a Xuanmen disciple enters the city, it will be immediately locked and recorded, and in the depths of the imperial city, there are special Xuantian disciples who are responsible for monitoring the movements of the Xuanmen disciples in the city. Li Mo said.
"Is there such a thing?"
Qin Ke'er turned her head to look, and her beautiful eyes flashed with a little suspicion.
"It's true. ”
Li Mo replied firmly, it is true that the Tianmu Lock Xuanheng Array is a secret that no one knows, and even the ordinary people of the Nine Xuantian Sect do not know about this kind of thing, let alone other sects.
It's just that he has lived in the Imperial City for many years, and he has had contact with many Xuanmen disciples with his original status, including some of the best people in Jiuxuantian, so he has a much deeper understanding of the Imperial City than others.
"This imperial city is a mortal land, and the people of the Nine Xuanmen have set up a magic circle here, and they are also monitoring the every move of the Xuanmen disciples, which is too exaggerated. Liu Ningxuan tilted her little head and muttered.
Li Mo explained: "According to common sense, it is true that the Xuanmen should not be mixed into the struggle of forces in the mortal land, but in fact, the change of power in every country reflects the rise and fall of the Xuanmen forces. From the dispute between the two Xuanmen sects to the death match between the two mortal families, this kind of thing is innumerable in history, and this is even more obvious to the royal family. You must know that no matter how powerful the royal family of the mortal land is, a second-tier Xuanmen can completely destroy it. ”
"Indeed, the power of Xuanmen and Mortal Earth is not at the same level at all, if Xuanmen is behind the ghost, it is too simple to subvert the imperial power. ”
Liu Ningxuan somewhat understood.
Li Mo continued: "Although the imperial city is in the mortal land, it is the foundation of the emperor-level Xuanmen, so in order to ensure that the imperial power is not harmed by the people in the Xuanmen, there is not only a magic circle in this imperial city, but also the strong people of the Nine Xuantian who guard it all the year round, so that the royal family living here is protected by them. ”
"I see, then this Heavenly Eye Lock Xuan Array can work for us?"
Liu Ningxuan understood and asked again.
"It works, this is a genuine Nine Realms Array. ”
Li Mo nodded, "With our current state, as long as we step in, we will immediately be known by the people of the Nine Xuantians." ”
"It's so powerful, this Jiuxuantian is really bloody. ”
Liu Ningxuan sighed lightly.
"I didn't expect this, so if we want to go in without being discovered, we can only completely seal off the cultivation?"
Qin Ke'er pondered.
"Ah, in this case, wouldn't we be like ordinary people? Staying in there won't even be able to carry out cultivation. ”
Liu Ningxuan said with some distress.
Li Mo smiled slightly, "That's why before I came, I said that I would let you go to the Half Realm first, so as not to waste time here." But now that you're here, it's not difficult for me to solve this trouble, no matter how powerful this magic circle is, how can it escape the eyes of Big Brother Zaru?"
Liu Ningxuan suddenly became overjoyed, and asked with a small face, "Can Brother Zalu see the flaws in this formation?"
Zalu said with a smile: "A mere Xuanmen magic circle is naturally difficult for me, but now my foundation is damaged, and my divine consciousness can only exert a very small part, so it will take a short time to crack this magic circle, and when it is cracked, we don't have to be bound by this magic circle." ”
"But even so, you have to be careful when cultivating here, there is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger in this city. ”
Li Mo said solemnly.
He couldn't be clearer about this, there were not only Nine Xuantian Divine Realm powerhouses in this city, but there were even Spirit Realm powerhouses back then.
"I'm not afraid, isn't Sister Ke'er's sect very familiar with the Nine Xuanmen?
Liu Ningxuan said with a smile.
Qin Ke'er shook his head and said, "It is true that the Hanyan Gate had a close relationship with the Nine Xuanmen back then, but the Hanyan Gate also became a hidden sect because of the Nine Xuanmen. ”
"Why is that?" Liu Ningxuan said a little puzzled.
"One mountain can't accommodate two tigers, Jiuxuantian recognizes that Hanyanmen is a sect whose strength is not under it, and he is afraid of it, such a sect is a threat to Jiuxuantian's rule. Therefore, Hanyanmen has become a hidden sect, and it will no longer intervene in the disputes in this world, but I am afraid that it is also a last resort. ”
Li Mo speculated.
"That's true, so the current Hanyan Gate has nothing to do with Jiuxuantian. ”
Qin Ke'er nodded lightly.
After the words fell, a few people entered the city, because Li Mo had obtained a few people's road registration items from the Tielu Gate in advance, so there was no accident when they crossed the city gate.
After entering the city, there is a prosperous avenue, extending in all directions, streets and alleys, everywhere revealing the scene of prosperity.
Along the avenue, a large complex of buildings located on the high ground is the central city where the officials worked, and the palace complex surrounded by the middle city is the Imperial Palace.
Far away, Li Mo couldn't help but sigh secretly.
I think that I was recommended to the Imperial City Hospital because of my outstanding achievements in the county medical institute, and how high-spirited and ambitious I was when I first came here.
has been in the sea for many years, and he is also proud of the spring breeze, and he has had many beautiful dreams.
It's a pity that once he suffered, he even lost his life.
Now that I have come here again, I really feel like I have all kinds of feelings, if I had not been involved in the prince's rebellion case back then, I don't know what kind of situation it is now.
It's just a joy to think that the emperor and the eldest prince are such bastards, and they haven't been a courtier for the rest of their lives.
Sometimes to see a person clearly, it costs with your life.
After a short time, Li Mo rented a large mansion in a secluded place, and then went out to do his own private affairs, and Zalu also went to other parts of the city in order to analyze the magic circle.
Standing in front of the door, looking at Li Mo who was walking away, Liu Ningxuan said, "Sister Ke'er, what do you say senior brother is going to do?"
"Didn't you ask?" Qin Ke'er asked.
"No, if the senior brother wants to say it, he will definitely sue me, and if he doesn't say it, he must have his own reasons. Liu Ningxuan replied.
"Xuan'er is really empathetic. ”
Qin Ke'er smiled slightly, her eyes fell on Li Mo, who was about to disappear, and said lightly, "One thing I can be sure of is that if I can let him come around such a long way, it can be seen that the matter is not small." He didn't take the initiative to say it, but he was afraid that he didn't mean to let you and me get involved, so he didn't have to ask more, he just hoped that this matter would not be related to the royal family. ”
After that, there was a faint worry in my heart.
On the other side, Li Mo walked along the North Street of the outer city, and it didn't take long to arrive in front of a mansion, where a plaque was hung on the gate, with the word "Wu Mansion" written on it.
"It's all said that things are wrong, but nothing has changed here. ”
Li Mo glanced at it, said a word lightly, walked over and knocked on the door.
After a while, a young servant poked his head out, he held a broom in his hand, looked at Li Mo, and asked, "What is this son doing?"
"I'm here to visit Lord Wu. Li Mo said, handing over the name card that had been written earlier.
"Wait a minute. ”
The servant took the name and closed the door.
After a while, hurried footsteps sounded inside, and a housekeeper in his forties opened the door and said respectfully, "Li Gongzi, please come with me." ”
When I entered the Wu Mansion, it was full of flowers, and it was elegant everywhere.
When I got to a small hall and sat down, a man in a green shirt in his forties rushed over from the other side of the corridor.
He had an elegant air, a light beard on his white face, and a clear and thorough look in his eyes.
As soon as he entered the small hall, he immediately looked at Li Molai, and then arched his hand slightly, "Dare to ask Li Gongzi, where did you hear the few words written on the name post?"
