Huang Wuji walked for a whole week in the Qilian Mountains. God seemed to be against him. It was either windy or rainy these days, and he gradually lost his way.
If it weren't for Huang Wuji's innate intuition of danger, he would have almost broken into the lair of high-level ferocious beasts several times. Intermediate-level ferocious beasts can be seen everywhere. Huang Wuji also found that he seemed to be heading in the wrong direction, heading towards the center of the Qilian Mountains.
After adjusting the direction several times in a row, there was finally a slight improvement. There were fewer and fewer intermediate-level ferocious beasts around. Huang Wuji continued to adjust the direction every day. It was easiest to get lost in the Qilian Mountains. As long as he went slightly wrong, he would be there.
Probably heading towards the center.
Another three days passed. Huang Wuji was walking unsteadily in the Qilian Mountains when he suddenly heard the roars of ferocious beasts and the cries of killing from humans in the distance. Huang Wuji's expression condensed and he headed towards the mountain as quickly as possible.
Rush to the place where man and beast fight.
Huang Wuji ran for about three miles. The surrounding woods were no longer so densely packed in piles. He saw a man in his thirties holding a big ax in his hand and fighting with a tusked pig.
There was a big hole in the big man's left leg. The tusk pig's tusks pushed out a big hole. There were more than a dozen ax wounds on the tusk pig's body, and blood was constantly flowing out. The tusk pig is a low-level ferocious beast with strong skin and thick flesh.
It is not easy for a big man to hurt it with his cultivation level.
However, judging from the current situation, the time for the defeated Han to be killed is not far away. It was hard for Huang Wuji to see how a man could be killed by a fanged pig.
Huang Wuji casually picked up a stone from the ground, poured spiritual power into the stone, flicked his index finger, and the stone hit the fanged pig's eyes like a flying bird.
The stone was extremely precise and hit the fanged pig's eyes accurately. The huge spiritual power in the stone instantly penetrated the fang pig's head, and the stone drilled directly out of the back of the fang pig's head.
There was a kind of unwillingness in the eyes of the fanged pig, and he fell straight down. The big man was also startled by the sudden thought, and was stunned for a while. After a while, he came to his senses, clasped his fists and said: "I don't know who the master is?"
Thank you for your help, I hope you can come and see me!"
"Swiss, swiss, swish!" A breeze blew by, and the leaves on the branches crossed and made a sweet sound. Huang Wuji walked out of the woods with big steps, stared at the big man and asked: "Where is this place!".
As soon as the big man heard Huang Wuji's accent, he realized that the other person was not a local, and he immediately became cautious. There are many people who kill people and buy goods in the Qilian Mountains. But when he saw that the person standing in front of him was a half-year-old child, he felt a little more relaxed, but
Still extremely vigilant.
"This little brother is not from here!" the big man asked cautiously. Huang Wuji did not speak, but nodded in agreement.
"Oh, did the little brother get separated from the adults and got lost in the Qilian Mountains?" The big man's honest concern almost made Huang Wuji laugh. He had never heard of an adult from that family who dared to take a child across the river.
Passing through the Qilian Mountains, the big man's questions were really unnecessary.
"Where is this place!" Huang Wuji looked at the big man coldly and asked. When the big man saw Huang Wuji's cold gaze, his body couldn't help but trembled, and even his injured thigh no longer hurt so much.
"This is the Jiubian City area!" The big man replied quickly when he saw Huang Wuji's murderous eyes. The big man was not a fool. There was no one around him. He could kill a tusked pig with a small stone. He couldn't deal with it at all.
The Qilian Mountains killed him without any reason.
"Nine Borders City, I have arrived at the place where the Sui Dynasty was!" Huang Wuji muttered to himself. The big man was not deaf. Hearing Huang Wuji's words, his eyes narrowed and his body quietly moved back.
"What are you doing!" Huang Wuji suddenly raised his head and looked at the big man who was trying to escape, a chill flashing through his eyes.
"Ah, ah, ah, I didn't do anything, I just wanted to take a walk!" When the big man said it, even he didn't believe it. "Oh, it's really a walk. The Nine-Border City is in that direction!" Huang Wuji approached the big man step by step.
He asked with a somewhat childish face staring at the big man.
The big man was unable to move under the pressure of Huang Wuji's threatening gaze. He raised his finger with difficulty and pointed in a direction. Huang Wuji looked in the direction pointed by the big man, then raised his head to look at the sky and the surrounding environment. He was sure that it was
The west.
Huang Wuji gently wiped his dusty clothes with the palm of his hand. He didn't know when there was a stone in his hand. He walked in the direction pointed by the big man. When he saw Huang Wuji leaving, the big man slowly let out a breath of exhaustion.
There was a smile on his face that could survive the disaster.
However, the moment the smile appeared, it suddenly froze. A stone with golden light instantly penetrated the big man's forehead. A pair of unblinking eyes appeared on the big man's smiling face, full of incomparable weirdness.
Huang Wuji walked on the road, lowering his head and flashing a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "The price for running away is death. If you don't run, I might let you go!".
The direction pointed by the big man was correct and he did not deceive Huang Wuji. After walking for half an hour, he saw a lot of people walking in groups towards the Qilian Mountains.
Huang Wuji asked a few passers-by along the way. When the passers-by saw that his clothes were made of top-quality silk and satin, they suddenly became greedy and wanted to kill people. However, they knew that Huang Wuji was not a human at all, but a demon overlord reborn in hell.
, the thought had just taken hold and was already dead in his hands.
There is only one law that is emphasized in the Qilian Mountains: the weak eat the strong, and the fittest survive. All laws do not exist here, and only those who are cruel can survive.
Huang Wuji was also annoyed. He arrested several passers-by and kept asking them about the direction of the Nine Border City. Originally, Huang Wuji was not very suspicious, but when people are in strange places, they always have a sense of crisis. He continued to arrest them.
Several passers-by felt relaxed after receiving accurate information.
Jiubian City was the closest place to the Qilian Mountains in the Sui Dynasty, and it was also one of the only ways to enter Fangwai. Although it was still far away from Fangwai, it showed that the direction Huang Wuji was taking was correct.
Jiubian City is just a starting point. It has to pass through most of the Sui Dynasty until the Baiyun Fortress on the border enters the sphere of influence of the Daman Dynasty. From the border city of the Daman Dynasty, Black Stone City, we can count the outer periphery of Fangwai.
After ten days of ups and downs, Huang Wuji couldn't wait to find an inn in Jiubian City and take a comfortable hot bath to relieve his physical fatigue.
Of course, with Huang Wuji's cultivation level, there is no need for troublesome things like bathing. At his level of cultivation, spiritual power will automatically cover the surface of the skin, directly excluding all stolen goods.
Wanting to take a hot bath is just an instinctive thought of the body.
Huang Wuji quickened his pace. Three hours passed and the sky gradually darkened. However, he met more and more people and the surrounding environment became more and more open. There were gradually no trees and flat roads everywhere.
.
There were also some passers-by wearing ordinary people's clothes, passing by Huang Wuji's eyes. A tall and strong shadow faintly appeared in Huang Wuji's eyes, and the looming city wall let him know that the place he was looking for was almost there.
Jiubian City is known as the Millennium City. The fifty-foot-tall city wall can resist the attacks of all low-level and intermediate beasts. The city wall composed of blocks of gray stone has witnessed the rise of Jiubian City.
Both Jiubian City and Ziyue City of the Tang Dynasty were cities with prosperous commerce. They could also be said to be "three-nothing" zones. Power was in the hands of the local powerful. Originally, if the local powerful wanted to seize control from the imperial court, they should have been defeated by the imperial court.
The army was wiped out, but there were many princes and nobles behind the powerful force, so the emperor of the dynasty was helpless.
Seeing is all that matters, as long as the annual taxes are paid.
Huang Wuji walked closer and closer, gradually approaching the gate of Jiubian City. His gorgeous clothes and dusty appearance made people mistakenly think that he was a wanderer returning from a distant place.
Huang Wuji ignored the guards at the city gate, and just as he was about to walk in, a city gate guard couldn't stand it anymore and stopped Huang Wuji and said, "Where did the boy come from? Where is the road guide!".
After listening to what the city gate guards said, Huang Wuji suddenly remembered that in order to distinguish and prevent spies from other countries, the five major dynasties had special roads to prove everyone's identity, which was necessary for entering and exiting the city.
Being in the Sui Dynasty, Huang Wuji would have a guide there. His face suddenly looked a little ugly, but he returned to normal in a flash. He quietly took out thirty taels of silver from his sleeve and stuffed it at the city gate.
In the hands of the guard.
Unlike Fangwai, there are still mostly ordinary people in Middle-earth. Silver and gold are still very useful. After the city gate guard came into contact with the cold texture of silver, he immediately identified the object in his hand, weighed it, and looked at Huang Wuji with a smile.
"Yes, your route is fine, go there!" the city gate guard put the money into his sleeve and said loudly.
Huang Wuji nodded and hurriedly walked in. After Huang Wuji left, several guards on the side had already noticed the situation here. They all gathered around and asked: "I met Kaizi, how much did he earn!"
.
The city gate guard proudly raised the thirty taels of silver in his hand and said proudly: "Did you see it? I'm treating you tonight!".
A group of guards looked at him with envy, and firmly remembered Huang Wuji's appearance, and they would try to blackmail the guards as well next time.
Huang Wuji walked into Jiubian City, and he didn't know that he was being noticed by a group of ant-like guards. He was walking on the street, his eyes seemed to be looking for something.
This is not the first time for Emperor Wuji to come to Jiubian City. He has also been here several times in later generations, but it has been too long ago and he will not remember a city specifically. When he saw the crowded Jiubian City, he was blinded and did not know what to do.
What to do.
Just when Huang Wuji was feeling a little annoyed, he suddenly felt someone tugging on his sleeve. When he looked back, he saw a child wearing a patched gray shirt.
When the child saw Huang Wuji turning around, he quickly smiled and said: "Sir, is this your first time coming to Jiubian City? I can be your guide for only thirty cents!".
In addition to gold and silver in China, the most widely used copper coins are those of the lower class ordinary people. One tael of silver is equivalent to one hundred copper coins.
The child asked for thirty cents, which was not too much. Huang Wuji nodded and agreed. Then Huang Wuji made a palm move, and a one-tael silver appeared in his hand and handed it to the child and said: "Take me to the best inn.
, one tael of silver is yours!”.
The child's eyes lit up when he saw one tael of silver, and he nodded repeatedly as he looked at the generous Huang Wuji. It had been a long time since he had met such a generous person. Looking at the child who jumped up and led the way, Huang Wuji couldn't help but feel proud of his own wisdom.
Happy.
In addition to food, there are hundreds of thousands of taels of silver and hundreds of thousands of gold in the space ring. The best currencies in Middle-earth are gold and silver. I have never thought about the so-called copper coins. See
The child's attitude says it all.
Under the guidance of the child, we soon arrived at a bustling street with bright lights and crowded pedestrians.
