The imperial capital occupies a huge area. From a distance, it looks like a vast sea of smoke. Just beyond the sight, a meandering Jiuqu River passes through the city, connecting everything in this huge city.
Secondly, seeing such a city, Chang Xiao felt a little dazed, as if he had returned to a world with huge cities and dense population in his previous life. Now in Chang Xiao's memory, there are only densely packed people in that world.
!
"There are a total of eighteen walls inside and outside this imperial capital. Behind the innermost one is the imperial palace. The rest were accumulated one by one during the expansion of the city. The things that the Li family emperor is most passionate about
, is to continuously expand this imperial capital. In three hundred years, starting from the ancestor emperor, he built this iron barrel-like imperial capital with eighteen layers of walls inside and outside. It can be said that he wants to capture the entire Yinkui.
It is not difficult to conquer the country, but it is difficult to conquer this imperial capital with eighteen floors of walls." The white-robed ancestor said with somewhat solemn eyes.
Chang Xiao smiled and said: "What can a country like an iron barrel do? This Li family dynasty is using the wrong force!"
The white-robed ancestor obviously disagreed with such words, but this did not prevent him from nodding in agreement.
At this time, Tang Yi came behind Chang Xiao and said, "Are we going to the city now?"
Tang Yi has never been able to find a good way to call Chang Xiao. Call him the Holy Immortal? The other party obviously doesn't like this name, so he calls him by his first name? Is this a joke? The other party said that he and them
The relationship between them is like that of an employer and a worker. Chang Xiao is responsible for taking them out of this world and seeing the broader sky, while they are responsible for protecting Chang Xiao, who is still weak.
Chang Xiao smiled and said that you should call me boss. In the beginning, boss was the most despicable term for pulling a cart. How could he dare to use it on Chang Xiao?
Chang Xiao glanced at Tang Yi's wife and daughter behind him, and naturally knew what he was thinking. Taking the wife and daughter into the city was simply asking them to die. No one knew whether they would live or die after entering the city.
It is said that dead noodles are several times more valuable than raw noodles. A mother and daughter without any cultivation will not only be unable to help but will actually hinder them!
Chang Xiao smiled and said: "Who told you that when we enter the city now, we will definitely cause an uproar? Let's go in first and see how this huge and prosperous city is doing before we talk about anything else."
After saying that, Chang smiled and moved forward.
The white-robed ancestor and Tang Yi, the adoptive father and son, were obviously relieved. They thought Chang Xiao was going to kill seven in and seven out. It would be better if they just had a look. They really saw this building with ten
With the size of the imperial capital with eight walls, perhaps this holy sage will change his mind!
To compete with the entire imperial capital on his own, even the most holy immortal would probably die. Wasn't there a saintly immortal who was sacrificed by Emperor Yanji for eight thousand iron armors and one thousand corpses?
Was he captured alive? In the end, he was eaten alive and became an immortal emperor!
Within the imperial capital, there were one hundred thousand dragon warriors and three thousand Yin corpses. This number was several times the number used to capture the eternal master.
The walls of the imperial capital were so strong and huge that it was unbelievable that they were made by mortals. Chang Xiao walked to the bottom of the city and looked up at the hundred-meter-high city wall. The white-robed ancestor and the male sword god stood under this wall.
They all inevitably have the feeling of being shaken by a small tree. Facing such a city wall, even if their cultivation is several times stronger, they will still be powerless.
The little girl had never seen such a high city wall. She could not close her mouth and her big eyes could not blink. She was obviously shocked.
The procedures for entering the city are not cumbersome. After all, the throughput of such a large city every day is very amazing. If you check them one by one, you may not be able to enter the city after queuing for ten days and half a month. However, this is only compared to the outermost city.
There are eighteen walls inside the city wall. Although each one is shorter than the other, it is more difficult to enter than each one.
"Every emperor of the Li family has to do two things since he ascends the throne. One is to build his own mausoleum, and the other is to build a city wall. In three hundred years, eighteen emperors have
Each of these eighteen city walls is taller and thicker than the previous one. Otherwise, it cannot show his achievements as an emperor. It seems that having such a wide city wall proves that the world is peaceful, and at the same time, it also leaves a life-saving building for future generations.
A fortress that will keep us alive." Looking at the city wall that was still under construction, the white-robed ancestor said with a slight sigh.
Chang Xiao said, "The Li family probably lacks a sense of security. They are born with a strong sense of worry. If they don't close the doors and windows, they will definitely not be able to sleep peacefully."
Chang Xiao and his party entered the city with the world-wide talisman in the hands of the white-robed ancestor, and there was no use even queuing, although the news that the white-robed ancestor and the Holy Immortal ran away together must have reached the ears of the emperor.
However, this talisman does not have any special mark. If it is used, it will not be traced to his white-robed ancestor. Moreover, at this time, the emperor is probably the only place in the world where no one can imagine that they will come.
, At this time, the white-robed ancestor was a little confused. After all, it seemed that the imperial capital was the most suitable place for them to hide. It was densely populated and huge, and when the emperor looked around, he might not be able to see the bottom of his feet.
situation.
The city is prosperous, and places with many people are always prosperous. The imperial capital is said to have a population of three million. Emperor Li did not just expand the imperial capital blindly. There was a systematic construction process that even included cultivated land.
It can be completely self-sufficient, especially since there is a Jiuqu River running through the city. It can be said that even if the whole world is raging with war, this imperial capital will still stand firm.
Chang Xiao walked in this prosperous city, surrounded by crowds and the sound of hawking everywhere. The area at the city gate has always been prosperous, and the inns around it were decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, which made the peaceful and prosperous era whitewashed. But in the eyes of them who returned from Liyang City, all this
It all seems unreal. There seems to be only a thin line between peace and prosperity, and war and ruin. This country is already getting old!
Chang Xiao wandered around the city at will. Their group slightly changed their attire to look less shocking. Even the white-robed ancestor changed his spotless white robes into green robes, and the male hero
The dazzling animal skin of the sword god also turned into a coarse linen shirt at this time. In contrast, Tang Yi, his daughter and wife, and the three of them looked particularly lively. There was no need to change their costumes at all. The one dragging his son and taking care of his wife didn't look like that at all.
Bad guy.
Not long after Chang Xiao entered the city, he saw a notice that wanted the Baipao Ancestor and his adopted son Tang Yi. The portrait on the notice was lifelike, and the Baipao Ancestor was painted with just a few strokes.
The vulgarity depicts Tang Yi like a gangster.
The white-robed ancestor was serious about it and even came forward to observe it. When he came back, his nose was not the same as his face. It seemed that if the painter fell into his hands, he would inevitably be punished by death or alive.
Tang Yi's wife was laughing out loud, apparently feeling that the portrait of Tang Yi was too sinister. The little girl didn't know why everyone was laughing, and she kept laughing along with her while holding a candied haws in her hand.
Chang Xiao looked at these guys. These people are really very nervous. Shouldn't ordinary people show some panic when they see that they are wanted by the whole country?
But that's okay, being frightened will only spoil his interest in laughing.
It was getting dark, and Chang Xiao and his party found an inn to stay. This kind of inn life made Chang Xiao miss it very much. In the days that followed, he kept walking around the city, taking the girl around to eat all kinds of delicious food and play.
All kinds of fun, Patriarch Bai Po and Nanhe Sword God did not see that Chang Xiao had the idea of making a big fuss in the imperial capital. Instead, he seemed like a young man who had never seen the world and entered the imperial capital for the first time.
However, the two of them did not dare to take it lightly. Since there was a national wanted notice on the imperial list, their situation was definitely not as calm as it appeared on the surface at this time.
Chang Xiao wandered around the city for a month, until he entered the tenth level of the city gate. By the ninth level, the city inside was no longer accessible to ordinary people. Most of the residents were officials and wealthy businessmen.
, or some noble family members, and behind each layer of city walls, they are concentrated towards the center of power of Yinkui Kingdom, and eventually reach the throne of the emperor!
Chang Xiao couldn't enter until he reached this point. In the situation where Baipao Ancestor was sweating, he actually retreated and left the city. This made Baipao Ancestor's heart drop to the ground. If he could survive,
Who is willing to take the risk of death?
In his opinion, Chang Xiao must have given up. After seeing this huge and glorious city, anyone will put away their disrespectful heart. This city, which took three hundred years to build, really gives people an unspeakable feeling.
The above-mentioned sense of pressure, standing under this city has a suffocating feeling.
In fact, when he first saw this city, Chang Xiao said that there was no need to go in and fight. The white-robed ancestor vaguely felt that Chang Xiao was frightened by the scale of this city, and he wandered around this city for a month.
The time spent was just for the Holy Immortal to regain some face. After all, before he came, he spoke too much. A month later, the more he went forward, the greater the resistance and the more knowledge he gained. In the end, he could only
Although the White-robed Ancestor was relieved to give up the initial far-fetched idea in disgrace, it still made the White-robed Ancestor look down upon Chang Xiao, the Holy Immortal.
Chang Xiao walked all the way out of the city. For the rest of the month, Chang Xiao and the others traveled around and were in a relaxed and happy mood. However, there were dark clouds inside the city. The news of the fall of Liyang City ahead had come more than half a month ago. It is said that this
Once, the Celestial Master of the Zhu Kingdom of the Nanhe Man Kingdom came in person, and the army was advancing towards the imperial capital of the Yinkui Kingdom at great speed, attacking the city and building strongholds along the way.
