Jueyi Pass is located at the only exit of Jueyi Line Gorge. The towering level is hundreds of feet high, but only ten feet wide. From a distance, it looks like a sword that penetrates straight into the sky and cracks a gap.

Jueyi Pass has never been broken since its establishment and has also become the wall of sighs for Lu.

There are endless tall mountains around Jueyi Pass, and it is impossible for ordinary people to climb over such steep peaks. Moreover, the ice-type elemental power in the area near Jueyi Pass has become active, which has led to the area around Jueyi Pass being completely ice and snow mountain ranges, with peaks that are thousands of feet high at the lowest forming ice and snow barriers.

The existence of levels is not only to resist foreign enemies, but can also become a major transportation route in non-war times, allowing people and ordinary warriors to pass through.

The war situation is now spreading in the eastern part of Chu State and has not affected the northern part of Chu State. Therefore, Jueyi Pass has not completely prevented ordinary people from passing it, but the inspection is much more stringent than usual.

At this time, the main city gate of Jueyiguan was closed, and only the side door was open, the side door was only two meters high and one meter wide. There were dozens of soldiers standing side by side on both sides of the side door, strictly searching for travelers and travelers.

"Mr. Bing, did not the customs clearance fee be only twenty spiritual baht in the past? Why did it triple this time?" A businessman dressed up and a businessman wearing a blue and white hat begged the soldiers begged the soldiers beside him.

"Stop talking nonsense, get me back if you don't have money. Do you know how much risk we took to open the city gate for you merchants? Now it's time for war!" The soldier with a fleshy face on the side smiled gloomy and glanced at the merchant in front of him, "Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't have money..." As he said, the soldier pointed to the goods behind the merchant and said, "Leave half of the goods, you don't have to pay a penny!"

"No! No! I'll give it, I'll give it." The merchant was so scared that he waved his hand. Half of the goods were worth much higher than sixty spirit baht.

After saying that, the businessman gritted his teeth and showed his eyes to the servant behind him in great pain.

The servant understood it and quickly took out sixty-five spiritual zhu from one side's pocket and respectfully handed it to the merchant. The merchant quickly walked forward and handed it to the soldier the excess of the five sister spiritual zhu in his hand to the soldier without showing any expression, and whispered: "It must be very hard for Mr. Bing to be on duty here. This is my filial piety to Mr. Bing."

This is also a hidden rule. The King of Hell is easy to avoid the little ghosts. Soldiers such as the big head 60 Lingzhu dare not embezzle. The extra five Lingzhu is the extra money for these soldiers to guard the city gate.

The soldier with a fat face smiled with satisfaction, patted the merchant on the shoulder, and waved his hand, "Okay, let him out of seclusion."

"Yes, team is right."

The iron thorn obstacle placed horizontally on the front was removed by the soldier. The merchant nodded and nodded at the soldier, and quickly directed the servant behind him to leave the city with the goods.

The ability of merchants to take great risks to leave Chu State at this time is naturally because of great benefits. As the largest country around, Chu State is not only hard power, but also the quality of some weapons, elixirs and other objects is higher than that of several other countries around.

These materials produced from Chu can be sold at a good price in other countries, and other small countries also have special products that Chu itself does not have. The income from one round and one round is enough to make merchants earn several times the profit, and the wealth is moving. Such a great benefit naturally attracted a large number of merchants to go abroad for risks and trade.

And this large number of merchants has also become a shortcut to gaining benefits in these levels.

During wartime, you can take the opportunity to raise the pass fee, so this opportunity will naturally not be missed by these generals guarding the border. As for whether there will be danger, there are four words: weighing the pros and cons.

As the most powerful country around, Chu naturally developed a sense of superiority for the people of Chu, especially in the army.

The terrain of Jueyi Pass is dangerous, and the small city gate is only opened and the main city gate is not opened. As long as the enemy invades, the small city gate can be closed at any time. In addition, the steep terrain is occupied, even if five times the enemy comes to attack Jueyi Pass, he can only sigh at the gate.

With such regional advantages, how could the generals guarding Jueyi Pass not get enough? After all, he is not the only one who is doing this.

In front of the gate, not only were the merchants from Chu State coming out of the pass, but also the merchants from Lu State entered Lu State from outside the pass. However, compared with the merchants from Chu State, the attitudes these merchants from Lu State encountered at Jueyi Pass were obviously not as "gentle" as those of Chu State's merchants.

"One hundred Lingzhu." The soldiers in front of the level looked up and down at the Lu businessman in front of him and said coldly.

The merchants in Lu dared not object at all. Although the price has risen a lot, they can still make a lot of profit after one trip.

"Okay Jun Ye." The businessman in Lu nodded and bowed, and quickly handed over the spiritual baht that should have been paid honestly.

He waved his hand and asked the merchant from Lu to enter Jueyi Pass, and then the merchant from Chu continued to follow up, "Where are you from Lu? You look a little unfamiliar?" The soldiers in front of the level asked casually.

The businessman with a clean face and a small beard had a smile on his face, "Sir, I am from the Hongxing Chamber of Commerce. You must be familiar with my father He Manzhou. My father was infected with typhoid fever some time ago and could not go to business. This time I will come to this trip for my father."

The soldier nodded and looked at the servants of the Chamber of Commerce behind him. One of them attracted his attention. He was eight feet tall. Although he was wearing a thick robe of a servant, he still could not hide his strong figure.

"Is this your servant? He is very strong..." the soldier muttered, but although this servant looked extremely strong, his face was as strong as a date, and his appearance was extraordinary, his aura was dull. The soldier smiled contemptuously and no longer paid attention. He had the appearance but had no cultivation, but was just a silver spear and candle head.

It was getting late... The gate of Jueyiguan Pass was also closed, leaving only the stars and fires on the city wall illuminating the canyon below.

The steep cliffs went straight into the sky from both sides, and the towering walls and rocks were smooth and steep, and there was no place to leverage the force, which eliminated the possibility of the enemy climbing the city tower from above the cliff.

*********************************

The capital of Chu State, the capital of Chu State.

The towering city walls are like thick mountains. This is also the largest city among the surrounding countries. The distance between horizontal and vertical is 200 kilometers and the population is tens of millions. It is called a Chu city. In fact, the city is a collection of many small cities. There are many inner walls in the outer city wall that divide the Chu city, covering an area of ​​40,000 square kilometers, into inner cities.

Outside the city wall, a tall man with a height of nine feet tall led a crowd to the bottom of the city gate of Chucheng. The man looked tired in his eyes. He looked up at the giant city in front of him. The man said to a middle-aged man with extraordinary demeanor beside him: "Sun Jijiu, this is the capital of Chu, the most powerful country around him. Let's leave here."

The middle-aged man called Sun Jijiu smiled bitterly and said, "Now I am still a priest. General Xue should not destroy me. Is General Xue really unwilling to stay and show his ambitions? With General Xue's strength, he will definitely be reused."

"No need...I'm tired now, now I just want to find a place to retire. As for the others, let's talk about it." The nine-foot-tall man smiled freely.

"Hey, since that's the case, I won't force you. General Xue will leave you here." Sun Jijiu bowed carefully to the man in front of him and said in a deep voice.
