Wusheng Mountain, with an altitude of 13,000 meters, is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, making it mysterious and unpredictable.
The imperial capital of Baiyue Kingdom was built close to mountains and rivers. With Mount Wusheng as its back, it further increased the power of the imperial capital and the majesty of the royal family.
Not one day later, these 120 martial arts boys who qualified arrived at the imperial capital of Baiyue Kingdom.
It is not an ordinary thing to meet the Martial Saint. Not everyone is qualified.
Therefore, after all qualified martial arts boys arrived in the Imperial Capital, the person in charge of the Zhenwu Holy Land explained: "Young boys, you are temporarily staying in the Imperial Capital. With the test result acceptance form in hand, you can stay in all inns, and all food and accommodation are provided.
It’s free.”
"Sir, how many days will we stay?"
"Free food and accommodation, what else don't you want?" The envoy glared.
"Hehe, of course not. We...we just really want to meet Lord Martial Saint, hehe." The martial boy apologized and said with a smile.
"Meeting Lord Martial Saint doesn't mean you can go see him anytime you want!" The messenger said in a serious tone, "The only thing I can say is one word - wait! Maybe three days, maybe five days, maybe tomorrow.
.During this period, if you have connections in the imperial capital, you can also visit relatives and friends. But the premise is that you must wait for the call from Wusheng Mountain at any time!"
"Yes!" The martial arts boys all smiled happily.
These martial boys are all the elites among the elites. Most of them come from big families from all over the country. Nearly half of them are children of royal families. The remaining nine out of ten are also children of aristocratic families. They are also high-ranking nobles.
There are very few low-level wealthy nobles like Qin Wushuang. Except for Qin Wushuang, the remaining few have the lowest scores among the qualifying places.
And there are none of the lower-level noble families and poor families.
This is the difference...
Qin Wushuang felt deeply that the differences in family status in this world were so directly expressed. And the gaps between different family backgrounds could only be seen from the cultivation of talents.
If the Qin family of Donglin had been struggling in a poor family, let alone such a high-level event, they might not even be able to secure their position as a low-level noble.
As for civilian families, they are completely insulated from such grand events.
After the disbandment, Qin Wushuang had no relatives or friends to visit. He was considering whether to experience the customs of the imperial capital alone when he heard the sound of clothes fluttering behind him. It was obvious that someone was approaching.
Qin Wushuang didn't look back and recognized that the footsteps came from Tong Yao's younger brother, Tong Yan.
"Brother Qin, why are you wandering here alone?"
"Haha, didn't Brother Tong go visit relatives and friends?"
"I come from a remote state and county. Even if I have some relatives and friends in the imperial capital, they are not very close. Visiting at home will only cause trouble to others. Besides, I admire Brother Qin's unique style very much. Brother Qin is free at this moment, so why not have some friends?
I’m going to be a host, can you find a place to have a few drinks?”
Qin Wushuang knew that Tong Yan wanted to thank him, and secondly, he also wanted to make friends with him, the trial champion, but he did not refuse.
Qin Wushuang did not reject the Tong siblings. Especially the Tong family's intelligence and public relations abilities could actually lead to the Zhenwu Holy Land, which surprised Qin Wushuang.
"Please." Qin Wushuang waved his hand and agreed.
At this time, Tong Yan gave full play to his communicative skills and asked a few luxuriously dressed passers-by to inquire about the names of several famous restaurants in the imperial capital.
"Brother Tong, since it's a small gathering, there's no need for such a grand ceremony. Just find a secluded place."
"Brother Qin, you have to listen to my younger brother's arrangements this time. Don't forget. You are now the trial champion and a quasi-royal descendant. It is absolutely impossible for you to be so careless about appearance. Brother Qin's words and deeds in the future should be for what is about to happen.
The title of king was used to build public opinion."
Qin Wushuang smiled faintly. He admitted that Tong Yan's words were reasonable, but it was not his character and habit to deliberately show off the majesty of the royal family and put on airs.
Royal status must ultimately be supported by strength - this is Qin Wushuang's logic.
While talking, the two of them had already turned around several streets.
"This should be Zhuque Street. Qifeng Tower, haha, this name is very pleasing to the ear. It matches Brother Qin's identity very well, so that's it!"
Seeing him like this, Qin Wushuang didn't object. He looked up and saw rows of towering sycamore trees in front of the long street. It was very spectacular, elegant and unique, and of high style.
Phoenix Qiwu.
It is said that planting a well-planted sycamore tree will attract the golden phoenix. This sycamore tree is originally closely related to the divine creature such as the phoenix. The many sycamore trees planted at the entrance of Qifeng Tower should be for this purpose.
Before he even got close, he heard screams and screams coming from the front.
Then, there was another round of scolding: "If you want to redress your grievances or file a complaint, go to the Imperial City. If you kneel to death here, no one will pay attention. Are you going to let others do business?"
"Are you leaving? If you don't leave, don't blame us for driving them away."
He scolded harshly, with a fierce look and an extremely impatient tone.
"Uncles, we have no way to complain. I heard that your restaurant is often visited by relatives of the emperor. We want to try our luck here and beg God to open his eyes and someone high-ranking to listen to our grievances..."
"Go away, go away, we are not a government, we have no time to listen to your nonsense."
"It doesn't work even after listening to it. If you have any grievances, you still have to go to the authorities."
"Several gentlemen..."
"You're trying to coax them away, right? Brothers, drag them away!" A tall man in green robes at the head shouted angrily, waved his hand, and several sturdy men behind him rushed up and dragged three of them away.
The old woman in ragged clothes dragged her out. Carrying it with one hand, she walked out of the street like an animal.
"Woooo..."
"Oh, God, do you really not have eyesight?"
The sound of crying made those who heard it sad and those who heard it shed tears. The bystanders wanted to persuade them, but when they saw these ferocious men, they immediately swallowed the words that came to their lips.
Several big men strode forward, intending to throw the old women out of Zhuque Street. After walking a few steps, they suddenly looked up and saw two young men standing in the middle of the street, blocking their way.
"Get out of here!" He took a quick look and found that he was not a famous young man in the capital, but these big men opened their mouths and yelled at them.
Tong Yan had no expression on his face and didn't move away, but he didn't answer either. When he saw this scene, he was also very angry. No matter what these old women did, they were always a little uncomfortable when they were carried like this by someone of their age.
Don't go there.
"What's the matter? Do you two have any objections?"
The tall man in green robes named the leader walked over. After looking at the aristocratic costumes of Qin Wushuang and Tong Yan, he judged their identities. They were the sons of aristocrats, but they were not the sons of high-ranking aristocrats, nor were they famous young men in the capital.
In other words, Qifeng Tower can afford to offend such a person.
Of course, they have their own theory of doing business by being friendly and making money. If the other party doesn't deliberately cause trouble and everyone just laughs it off, they still have to receive it.
Qin Wushuang glanced at the green-robed man indifferently, and suddenly asked: "Do you have any ancestors?"
"Nonsense, don't you have any ancestors?" The big man in green robe glared, realizing that the person coming here was really looking for trouble, and he scolded him unceremoniously.
"Then do you have any parents?"
"How can someone who has no parents jump out of a rock? Young people, if you know what you are looking for, get out of the way immediately. Don't think that you can show off by wearing a noble suit. Don't forget, this is the imperial capital, not a corner of your countryside!
"
The big man in green robe had a bad tone and did not hide his sarcasm at all.
The country gentry and local tyrants may be very rich, but in this area of the imperial capital, they are used to being superior to others, and they generally don't pay much attention to the nobles who come from below, as long as they are not too powerful.
Qin Wushuang nodded: "So you are not just a stone. You jumped out of it. Then are they old enough to give birth to you?"
The big man in green robe rolled up his sleeves and stared: "You two want to fight against injustice, right? The imperial capital lacks everything, but these days it lacks something new like fighting against injustice."
"Put the person down." Qin Wushuang was too lazy to fight a lawsuit. "I will only say this once. No matter what they did, put the person down first."
"Hahaha..." The big man looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, "If I heard it right, your head is broken. Why do you have it? With the skin of a low-class nobleman on your body? It's ridiculous! This is the imperial capital! You brat.
, go back to your countryside and farm hard! The emperor is in danger!"
These words deeply hurt Tong Yan's self-esteem, and he shouted: "What happened to the countryside? The nobles in the countryside are a hundred times stronger than you bully dogs. Let them go!"
"So what if I don't let him go?" the big man in green robe snorted.
"Don't let go?" A sneer escaped from the corner of Qin Wushuang's mouth, and suddenly his body moved, his arm slightly raised, and a strong wind passed by.
Only a dozen crisp slaps were heard. The next moment, the men in the big man's hands had already let go of their hands. One by one, they covered their cheeks and looked at Qin Wushuang in disbelief.
Even the big man in green robe was stunned.
Then, he took a deep breath, tightened and released his throat, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "He's hitting someone! He's hitting someone!"
A moment after the words fell, a group of heavily armed thugs swarmed out of Qifeng Tower, led by a middle-aged man in rich clothes and rushed over.
"Who? Who hit someone?" the middle-aged man asked coldly.
"Master Ninth, these two squire and wealthy children, they beat people."
Qin Wushuang ignored the fierce look of these people, helped the three old women and let them leave first. Not only the three old women seemed to have seen a savior, they hugged Qin Wushuang's thighs and said, "Young Master, this Young Master,
You are a kind person and must make the decision for us. We are commoners in the Akagi Kingdom. In the past few years, the daughters of several families have disappeared for no reason. We went to the government to report the case, but the government did not give us any explanation... We had no choice but to come to the capital.
…”
"Chief of Chimu?" Qin Wushuang was stunned, "How many families do you have in total?"
"There are too many. We don't know each other. We all got to know each other when we complained in Chimu City. There are at least seventy or eighty families."
"So many? What about the others?" Qin Wushuang took a breath. If it was just one or two families, it might be an accident. Seventy or eighty families, it couldn't be described as an accident.
"Others are scattered in various lively places to cry out for injustice. But these noble lords won't let us stay, saying that we affect their business. Wuwuwu..."
Qin Wushuang was silent. This is no wonder. In this world, it is difficult for civilian families to seek justice.
Just as he was about to say something comforting, a scolding voice came from behind him: "Boy, you hit someone, why don't you dare to stand up?"
Qin Wushuang vaguely felt that this matter was not trivial, so he immediately warned: "You should leave here first and wait for me at the archway in front."
Looking back, he said slowly: "I beat people because they deserve to be beaten. If you don't want to cause trouble, let this matter go."
Qin Wushuang's attitude was to calm things down, not that he was afraid of trouble, but that he was more concerned about what those old women said, and vaguely felt that it seemed to be related to him. He couldn't explain why he felt this way, but once
The intuition and subconsciousness of a strong person constantly give such hints.
