Chapter 255: The Implication of the Martial Saint, the Giant Green Dragon City
When Lu Qing looked intently at the three characters "Qinglong City" on the city gate.
Soon, a rather rich golden light of supernatural power emerged from the words.
Several messages floated out.
Gold?
Lu Qing was slightly startled and looked at the notes.
【Martial Saint's inscription: These three large characters were written by a strong person with a perfect level of Xiantian Realm. The font is beautiful and the momentum is extraordinary. 】
【Contains martial arts will, which can last for hundreds of years. 】
【There are rumors in the world that these three words contain the inheritance left by that supreme martial arts master. However, for hundreds of years, no one has been able to decipher the secrets and obtain the inheritance. 】
【Found the exercise, do you want to download it? 】
"Does it really contain inheritance?"
Lu Qing was a little surprised.
Just now he just felt that these words had different connotations and had a guess in his mind. He did not expect that there was actually a inheritance of skills in them.
And judging from the description, this inheritance seems to have a great origin.
After all, not everyone can bear the title of Martial Saint.
I saw many people queuing up in front of the city gate, waiting to enter the city. It would take some time for their turn.
Without much hesitation, Lu Qing immediately chose to download the technique.
【Downloading, current progress, 1%, 2%, 3%...98%, 99%, 100%】
【The download of the exercise method is completed, do you want to simulate it? 】
Lu Qing chose simulation.
【Simulation in progress, current progress, 1%, 2%, 3%...98%, 99%, 100%】
【Simulation completed, do you want to proceed with learning? 】
This time, Lu Qing did not choose to study directly.
Because he spent more than a quarter of an hour downloading the simulated exercises, the procession's team gradually moved forward, and it was almost their turn.
"The inscription on this city gate is very extraordinary."
At this time, the old doctor also sighed.
"Master, have you noticed it too?"
Lu Qing was not too surprised. With the master's qualifications, it would be strange if he failed to notice the strangeness of those three words.
"The three big characters on the city gate seem to contain the sword will of a powerful warrior. Unfortunately, I am a dull teacher. I have just comprehended it for a while, but I have only understood four or five points."
The old doctor sighed a little.
Having just studied the inscription on the city gate for a while, he felt that the connotation of swordsmanship in it was quite beneficial to him.
Zhongzhou is truly a crouching tiger, hidden dragon, full of talented people.
They have not entered Zhongzhou yet, and just the inscription on the gate of a checkpoint can make him feel something.
It can be imagined that the real land of Zhongzhou is filled with outstanding people and many masters.
"I realized four to five points..."
Lu Qing was speechless.
Master's martial arts talent and understanding are indeed extremely strong.
The inscription on the city gate contains the insights left by an innately perfect and extremely powerful man.
Master was able to comprehend four to five points of the charm in such a short period of time, which is truly amazing.
"Where are you coming from? Is there a road to guide you? How many people are going to enter the city in total?"
Just when Lu Qing was invisibly surprised by his master, a rough voice sounded.
Lu Qing turned around and saw two soldiers wearing armor and holding halberds standing in front of the city gate. The one shouting was the soldier on the right.
Lu Qing's heart moved slightly.
This Qinglong City is indeed extraordinary. Even the two city guards guarding the city gate are both at the Muscle and Bone Realm. One of them has perfect qi and blood, and has reached the perfection of the Muscular and Bone Realm.
"Master Chengwei, we are from Cangzhou, a total of five people have entered the city."
Ma Gu walked forward with a smile and handed over a pamphlet.
The so-called road guide is actually something that can prove the identity of Lu Qing and others.
This thing is usually of little use, but it is still needed in important levels such as Qinglong Pass.
Unless Lu Qing and the others can cross the towering mountains by themselves and enter Zhongzhou without passing through Qinglong Pass.
Lu Qing and the others were helped by the Wei family to manage their identity, so there was no problem.
The city guard just looked through it and then closed it.
"There is no problem with the road guide. The five of you will be charged one tael of silver each for entry into the city, including the carriage. A total of six taels of silver will be paid. After the training, you can enter the city."
One tael of silver per person?
Ma Gu was slightly shocked when he heard this number.
But I looked at the other people around who were waiting to enter the city, and found that none of them showed any signs of abnormality. I knew that the entry fee should be normal, and it was not that the other party was deliberately making things difficult for them.
After having some confidence in his heart, Ma Gu took out a money bag with a smile and handed it over: "Yes, here are six taels of silver. Please take a look at it."
Hand waved: "Yes, you have a look, go in quickly. If anyone gives you a hard time, just say it was me, Hu Laosan, who was covering me."
Hand "Thank you, Mr. City Guard!"
Ma Gu's face showed joy, and after thanking him repeatedly, he returned to the carriage and led the carriage forward.
As the carriage passed the city gate, another city guard who had been silent until now suddenly said, "That young man, I saw from your appearance earlier that you seemed to be very interested in those three big characters on the city gate?"
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment. He turned around and saw that the city guard was looking at him. He thought about it for a moment and smiled: "I have always liked calligraphy. I saw the three characters "Qinglong City" above my head. They were written with majestic force. It seemed that they were not written by ordinary people. Seeing that, I was so happy that I watched intently for a while. Master Chengwei, I wonder if I have committed any taboos? "
"You have not committed any taboos."
The city guard who spoke was a young man with a decent face.
"But I see that you are also a martial arts practitioner, so I want to give you a piece of advice. The carvings on this city gate contain special connotations.
But that connotation is very evil. If you are lucky enough to understand something from it, believe me, don't practice it.
Otherwise, if you fall into madness, are haunted by inner demons, and retreat in your cultivation instead of advancing, it will be too late to regret it. 》
Lu Qing was stunned, but the face of the armored young man looked serious, and it seemed that what he said was not false.
He pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly to him: "Thank you for your advice, sir, I will pay attention to it."
After Lu Qing and others entered the city and could not be seen, the armored young man returned to his indifferent expression, indifferent to everyone.
However, Hu Laosan, the narrator, became interested: "Master Ji, why did you specifically remind the young man not to read the carvings on the city gate? You don't think that the boy just now can see the mystery of the carvings, right?"
"Who knows, I just saw that he seemed a little obsessed with those words, so I just reminded him. At least they gave us more money, right?" The young man in armor said lightly.
"That's right." Hu Laosan took out the money bag that Magu gave him just now and poured out the fat ingot of silver inside, "Master Ji, whoever sees it has a share of this silver, you and I each have half." "It's quite big."
Seeing that Hu Laosan was about to pinch the silver, the young man in armor waved his hand: "Forget it, I won't use my share. You can keep it. Didn't you say you want to send your daughter to the Xuanxin Sect to study? You can't do it without money."
"Thank you very much, Master Ji."
When Hu Laosan heard this, he didn't refuse and took the money back into his arms, as if his actions just now were just polite.
The young man in armor twitched the corner of his mouth when he saw this: "You collect the money, but don't swallow the city lord's share, otherwise, even I won't be able to protect you."
"Don't worry, Master Ji." Hu Laosan He patted his chest and said, "I, Hu Laosan, can keep my accounts clean. I have always kept public affairs and private affairs private, and I have never been greedy for public money." After saying this, he took out another handful of broken silver from his pocket, counted a few pieces, and put them into the iron box on the side.
When the young man in armor saw this, he could only shake his head, ignore the old man, and continue to wander around.
Hu Laosan didn't care even more, although he didn't know why the dignified Second Master Ji couldn't think of guarding the city gate with him.
But since people do not prevent him from making money, and even occasionally provide him with cover, why not do it.
"As long as we collect another hundred taels, we will have enough silver to send Xiaolian to Xuanxin Sect to study."
Hu Laosan touched the silver ingot in his arms and felt very happy.
"It's a bit interesting."
Lu Qing, who had already entered the city, sensed what happened at the city gate, with an interesting look in his eyes, and took back the power of his soul.
It seems that the armored young man reminded him out of good intentions.
It's just...the meaning contained in the three carvings on the city gate, are they so terrible? Why didn't he feel it?
Lu Qing had a doubt in her heart.
When he saw the three engraved words before, he only felt that the artistic conception on them was quite extraordinary, but he did not feel that there was anything dangerous about them.
Furthermore, the master also conducted enlightenment, and I didn’t see anything wrong with him.
"Is it possible that there is another mystery to the inheritance in the carvings? It seems that I have to think about it after I settle down."
Lu Qing thought for a while and made a decision.
"Wow! What a big city!"
At this moment, Xiaoyan's surprised voice suddenly sounded.
Lu Qing turned around and saw that the little guy had gotten off the carriage and was holding Xiao Li in his arms. His mouth and eyes were wide open, looking ahead in surprise.
On the other side, Ma Gu and Wei Zian looked similar. They all stared at the bustling scene in front of them with wide eyes.
Just in front of them, they saw a street dozens of feet wide, with pedestrians of all kinds, horse-drawn carriages, donkey carts, etc., all walking in a steady stream.
The sound of vehicles, hawking, and shouting all came together.
The scene presented by this main street alone is much more majestic and prosperous than any big city Lu Qing and the others have ever seen.
Not to mention, the tall houses with rough style and made of huge stones on both sides of the street were rarely seen by Lu Qing and others.
"It is indeed the world-famous Qinglong Pass. I just don't know how spectacular the other three pass cities are." Lu Qing couldn't help but praise.
People from other states in the world, if they want to enter Zhongzhou normally, usually go through the four gates.
These four Guancheng cities are all named after legendary mythical beasts.
Lu Qing and the others were going to Qinglong Pass in the east.
Of course, although there are four Guancheng in the world, it does not mean that if you want to enter Zhongzhou, you can only enter through Guancheng.
It's just that if you want to enter Zhongzhou through other routes, the situation you have to face is much more complicated.
Generally, only those powerful warriors who do not want to expose their identity and whereabouts and have extraordinary skills will choose to do that.
Ordinary people would rather spend some money and take a safe road like Guancheng.
"Master, what should we do next, should we go to stay first or not?" Lu Qing asked.
The old doctor pondered for a moment and said: "Let's find a place to stay first. We have been traveling for so many days and we are all tired. Let's have a good rest in this city for a day and then enter the customs again tomorrow."
"The disciple thinks so too." Lu Qing nodded.
They have been on the road these past few days. Although they were protected by the formation car, they did not feel any physical fatigue, but they still felt a little tired mentally.
He and his master were fine, but Xiaoyan, Wei Zian and the others were a little unbearable.
Especially Ma Gu, because the speed of the carriage increased, he had to concentrate on driving the carriage all the time, and the mental consumption was quite huge.
If you don't take a good rest, I'm afraid it will damage your foundation.
Qinglong City is one of the hubs for communication between Zhongzhou and other states in the east, and its business is naturally very developed.
Lu Qing and the others found a quite satisfactory inn without much effort.
Although it is a bit expensive, they are not short of money now, so they don't care about this cost.
While waiting to settle in, Lu Qing had just made up the bed and quilt, and Xiaoyan and Xiaoli were playing around.
There was a knock on the door outside: "Aqing, come out."
"What's the matter, Master?" Lu Qing opened the door.
"You go out with me and ask about some things." The old doctor said.
"Okay Master, please wait a moment."
Lu Qing returned to the room, told Xiaoyan and Xiaoli to stay in the room and not to run around, and then walked out of the room.
After following Master outside the street, Lu Qing expressed his question: "Master, what do we want to inquire about?"
"Some matters related to entering the customs, as well as the recent general trend of the world." The old doctor said.
"The general trend of the world?" Lu Qing was startled, "Master, where can I find out?"
Is it possible that Master, in this Qinglong City, is there any way he can't find a way?
Lu Qing suddenly had an idea in his mind.
However, the old doctor did not answer Lu Qing's question directly. Instead, he took out something and showed it to him.
"Ah Qing, do you still recognize this thing?"
Lu Qing looked at it and recognized it immediately: "Isn't this the jade tablet that Your Excellency Zhirui gave to your master?" , I suddenly felt a strange movement coming from the jade plaque.
I just sensed it in the room and found that the jade plaque moved somewhere in the city.
According to what Mr. Zhirui told me, it should be a branch of the Tianji Building. "
“That’s right.” After hearing what his master said, Lu Qing reacted.
Since the Tianji Building is known as the world's best intelligence building, it must establish various branch buildings to collect intelligence.
A big city like Qinglong City must have its stronghold.
"It's not too late, Master, let's go there now."
