Yuwen Zhouyuan watched all this with faint eyes, and while he was thinking about it, the convoy had already arrived at the city gate.
There was no one outside the city gate. A completely black gate had long been closed tightly. There were a large number of soldiers in armor gathered at the city gate. These soldiers looked down at the convoy, with a look of vigilance on their faces.
He Xibo urged him to sit down and the Minotaur arrived in front of the motorcade. Without saying a word, he raised his hand and threw something directly onto the city gate.
It turned out that it was a golden token.
Seeing the commotion on the city gate of this golden token, a middle-aged man wearing bronze armor immediately picked up the token and looked at it carefully, then turned to face the long tree below.
The convoy looked at it for a few moments, and then suddenly gave an order: "Open the city gate and check the convoy. They are from the Fengyu Merchant Alliance."
Upon hearing the words of the middle-aged man in bronze armor, the nearby soldiers suddenly realized, and someone immediately ran down to the top of the city to open the gate.
After a moment, the door that seemed to be made of fine steel slowly opened, and dozens of heavily armed soldiers ran out from inside, arranged in two rows.
The middle-aged man in bronze armor finally walked out and came to He Xibo who was riding a horse-bodied minotaur. He looked at him warily before asking slowly: "You are the leader of the Wind and Rain Merchant Alliance?"
"He Xibo, I am the leader of the Fengyu Merchant Alliance this time. I think you must have received the order from the Lord of your city, followed by the goods your city ordered from our Merchant Alliance." He Xibo replied calmly with a fist in the air and a salute.
road.
"I have indeed received the order, but now is a special period. I have to ask a few immortal masters to check your convoy before it is released. Please understand," the middle-aged man in bronze armor said unceremoniously.
.
"Are you afraid that some monsters will get in? There is no problem with the inspection. Just go ahead and check." He Xibo heard this request and agreed without hesitation at all.
"Okay, Mr. Hu, Master Hong! Please check it out, please." The middle-aged man in bronze armor nodded with satisfaction, turned around and said hello in the direction of the city gate.
"The city lord ordered me and I to assist Commander Qian, and we will naturally help." A faint man's voice immediately came from the city gate, and then a scholar in brocade robes and a monk in black cassocks walked out.
The person who spoke was none other than the scholar in brocade robes, who was about forty years old.
Commander Qian did not dare to neglect the two immortal cultivators and quickly thanked them with a smile on his face.
The scholar in brocade robes and the monk in black robes each took out an inkstone, and the other took out a wooden fish. Then they muttered something in their mouths, made secrets with one hand, and at the same time threw the magic tools in their hands into the air.
Suddenly, the two magical instruments were circling in the air, and a black mist spewed out from the inkstone, covering the giant lizard at the front, while a piece of Buddha's light flew out of the wooden fish, and appeared nearby.
Several Minotaur knights swept past.
In just a moment, the black mist and Buddha's light flew away and turned to other targets behind them.
In this way, the two monks continued to inspect the lizard cars one by one. The black mist and the Buddha's light flashed alternately, and no one was spared.
In the blink of an eye, more than thirty animal chariots and more than two hundred people were swept by the two kinds of light, and no problems were found.
"Okay, you can go in. By the way, let me tell you. Mr. Jin has booked the largest Rugui Inn in the west of the city. After you have delivered the goods, you can go directly to meet there." Commander Qian's expression softened and he did not say anything more.
Too much trouble, after saying something casually, he raised his hand and let go.
The scarred-faced man with blind eyes was startled, but then he clasped his hands and led the convoy into the city gate.
As soon as you enter the city gate, you can find that the size of the stone city is far beyond Yuwen Zhouyuan's original prediction.
At a glance, there are countless houses of various kinds in the city, and it is impossible to see the end of it. However, this city seems to have been planned when it was built, even though the houses are of different styles, and the materials used are very different, such as stone and wood.
, but everything was arranged neatly, leaving a strip of bluestone streets several feet wide.
At this moment, such a large city is bustling with people, and all the streets are crowded with people, making it seem overcrowded.
Yuwen Zhouyuan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this scene, but then he discovered that most of the people walking on the street were carrying swords and other weapons, and everyone looked solemn.
Qiong'er, a girl in a pink shirt in the carriage, saw this scene, but she sighed and said to herself: "It seems that the beast tide is real, otherwise people who originally lived in the villages outside the city wouldn't all flock in
In the city, the pressure on Fuyao City will be even greater as a result."
When Yuwen Zhouyuan heard this, he suddenly realized.
With so many people, it was naturally inconvenient for the Lizard convoy to pass, but fortunately, Commander Qian had already anticipated this and sent several soldiers to clear the way for the convoy, forcibly dispersing the crowd and making way for the convoy to exit.
Even so, the progress of the Lizard Car was still not very fast. After driving for more than half an hour, it finally crossed more than ten long streets and walked onto a street with fewer people, and finally stopped in a multi-story building.
He stopped in front of the archway.
Behind the archway, there are several heavily guarded warehouse-like buildings, and guards armed with various weapons can be seen everywhere nearby.
Everyone in the Fengyu Merchant Alliance handed over the goods one by one to the warehouse official responsible for acceptance. After receiving the voucher, He Xibo breathed a sigh of relief and led everyone straight to the west of the city where Commander Qian had mentioned.
Yuwen Zhouyuan, who had fully recovered his mobility, was naturally among them, but halfway through, he suddenly asked He Xibo that he wanted to take a walk around the city, and then go to Rugui Inn and Fengyu Inn later.
Everyone in the business alliance gathered together.
He Xibo frowned when he heard Yuwen Zhouyuan's words. After thinking about it for a while, he agreed, but he said a few words: "Brother Yuwen, you haven't met the young master yet, so you haven't officially joined the Shang Dynasty yet."
Alliance, He wouldn’t be too restrictive with you. But you must have seen that Fuyao City is now a mixed bag of dragons and snakes, which is quite unstable. In addition, this city is just a remote small town, and there is probably nothing to see. If Brother Yuwen has
If you want to take care of things, you’d better go to the inn as soon as possible after finishing things.”
Although this leader He looks ferocious, his words are very tactful.
Yuwen Zhouyuan smiled slightly, agreed, and left in a hurry. After turning around a street intersection, he disappeared completely.
Looking at the direction where Yuwen Zhouyuan disappeared, He Xibo touched his chin with his thick palm, a look of contemplation on his face.
"What, is Donor He afraid that Brother Yuwen will never come back?" Wu Yunzi, who was standing next to the scar-faced, squinty-eyed man, suddenly asked with a smile.
"Having signed the 'blood contract', how could He be worried about this? It's just that Brother Yuwen seems to be a really well-established person, which makes people a little confused." He Xibo came back to his senses, but smiled bitterly.
said one voice.
"It is naturally unlikely that such a young person can achieve such amazing body refining skills from an ordinary person. But looking at his behavior, he does not look like the people in our Dongyuan Sanctuary. This is probably true."
Wu Yunzi smiled and preached to He Xibo.
"Oh, He Mou can naturally see this, but as long as he is not related to the other major forces in our Dongyuan Sanctuary, even if there is really a problem with his origin, we, the Fengyu Merchant Alliance, don't need to care. Cultivate this person well.
Maybe it is really possible to cultivate into the fifth-level indestructible vajra body. If so, I will definitely become a great help to the young master!" He Xibo said with a serious look on his face.
"The fifth-level Vajra Indestructible Body? Donor He really dares to think so. That is an existence that can compete with our real-life monks without falling behind." Wu Yunzi glanced at the scar-faced man with squinting eyes, and revealed something like
He said with a non-smiling expression.
"He has some extravagant hopes, but this person is so young and has such a level of cultivation. Who can guarantee that he will not cultivate to the fifth level of the Vajra Indestructible Body within a hundred years. In terms of opportunities, he seems to be more ordinary than me.
The chances of an innate warrior are much greater. Otherwise, He would not have asked him to sign the 'Blood Contract' without hesitation in the 'Ladaqin Rich Grassland'." He Xibo also said with a smile.
"That makes sense. Okay, let's not talk about this person anymore. My brothers and I were hired by Mr. Jin to look after your fleet. Now that the goods have been delivered safely, we have fulfilled our agreement, and now it's time to leave.
"Wu Yunzi gave a slight bow and calmly said his farewell words.
"Oh, the Taoist priests will no longer see the young master... In that case, those Taoist priests are gone!" He Xibo was not surprised. After trying to persuade him to stay, but to no avail, he said his farewell words.
.
As a result, these Cangmang Mountain monks left the crowd and went away.
"What a pity! It would be great if our merchant alliance could also have its own monks." A knight next to him suddenly sighed with emotion after waiting for the Taoist priests to leave.
"My own monks, this can only be a daydream. Although our Fengyu Merchant Alliance is known as one of the three major merchant alliances in Dongyuan Sanctuary, the spiritual stones we earn every year are not enough to hire monks all year round. In the Zhenqi stage
Low-level immortal cultivators are just about the same strength as ordinary innate warriors like us, while true Yuan stage monks consume an astonishing amount of spiritual stones. The business alliance can only hire them once in a while when it encounters big business. As for real-person or above cultivators, then
It's something you can't even think about. Even if our Merchant Alliance has worked really hard to cultivate mid-level monks, we will eventually leave." The scarred-faced man with stern eyes sighed softly.
"What Captain He said is absolutely true. Once the outstanding ones among our innate warriors succeed in cultivation, they will immediately go to dangerous places overseas to look for some elixirs that can produce spiritual roots out of thin air and want to become monks. After all, once they become monks
Not only can monks practice immortal arts, but their longevity is irresistible." The knight also felt a little emotional.
"Okay. These things have nothing to do with ordinary people like us. It's better to go back and see the young master quickly." He Xibo waved his hand, not wanting to talk about it anymore.
The knight immediately shut up, and the group of people left the place and were soon lost in the sea of people on the street.
At this time, Yuwen Zhouyuan was already standing on a nearby street, looking up at the three scorching white suns in the sky, and let out a long, depressed breath.
As soon as he came out of the "Ladaqin Ridge Grassland", Yuwen Zhouyuan immediately felt the amazing aura permeating the air.
