Chapter 62: Entering the City

The experience can only be remembered by experiencing it firsthand, and it is not necessarily good to arrange everything properly.

With their skills, it took half a month to trek through mountains and rivers to get close to the mountains and forests outside Lianshan City. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking out over the town, the newly built thick city walls stand tall and surround the whole city, and the huge city is like a giant dragon prostrate on the earth, towering and vast, like countless mountain peaks connected together.

Not long after, Lei Ming and his entourage came to a huge city gate, the city gate was heavily guarded, a team of uniformly dressed, embroidered with the word 'city' on their shoulders, and carrying long knives on their waists, guarded on both sides of the city gate.

Above the city gate, banners hunted, and rows of city guards stood on the city wall like benchmarks, wearing uniform and neat black armor, holding cold spears, and exuding an earth-shattering aura all over their bodies.

"Teacher, why do some people have to go into that little room next to the city gate before they can enter the city?"

Han Luojiang and the others saw that in the long queue to enter the city, some people who wanted to enter the town were stopped by the city guards and taken to a small room, and only after they came out were they allowed to enter the town. So, puzzled, he asked Lei Ming questions.

"That's because they don't have a pass ID, they need to go to the small room to register their identity, get a pass and pay 10 copper coins as a fee to enter the city before they can be allowed to enter the city, otherwise, the guards guarding the city will never let you enter the city." Lei Ming replied to his disciple.

"Huh? I still have to register my identity. It's not like this in our village, so I didn't expect it to be so troublesome to come to town. And you have to charge an entry fee to the city, which is too pitiful! ”

The three of them muttered unhappily, obviously thinking that this was too embarrassing.

"Hehe, this is a common way of accumulating wealth in large towns; The second is to remember your identity and origin, and also to know the rules that must be followed after entering the city, and if you commit anything bad in the town, you can be arrested according to the information you registered. ”

Thunder patiently explained to them why.

"Oh, I see. Okay, let's go handle it. So, teacher, what about you? ”

"Hehe, I don't need it, I have identification."

Soon, the so-called identification certificate was completed, which was actually a card made of a hard metal, with the words Lianshan City engraved on it. Only by showing this token can you enter and exit the city gate at will.

As soon as they stepped into the city through the city gate, Han Yu and the others suddenly felt the grandeur and prosperity of the town, and the endless flow of people came and went, making people feel dizzying. Along the way, there are countless shops, auction houses, etc., which are extremely lively, and the shops are full of all kinds of rare treasures, which makes Han Yu feel that their eyes are not enough, and they exclaim constantly along the way.

Their behavior has provoked many others to point fingers at them: "Where is this country boy from?" It's like I've never seen a treasure, and I shout at everything I see......"

Following the thunder on the side, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he heard the discussion of the people around him.

"Stinky boy! Although you haven't been to a big town, you have seen a lot of heaven and earth treasures, and now you just see a little more heaven and earth treasures concentrated in one place at the same time, do you need to shout so much, you can't be a little reserved! ”

"I'm so angry with the old man! Lost all my old man's face! Gotta go fast and don't let anyone know I'm their teacher! ”

Lei Ming muttered and bared his teeth, and quickly sped up his pace, distancing himself from Han Yu and the others, as if he wanted to hide it from others with his actions: I don't know them.

The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel!

"Teacher, don't go so fast! Wait for us! We don't know the way! ”

A sentence like a thunderbolt on a sunny day shouted behind Lei Ming, and in an instant, as if he was really struck by thunder, Lei Ming's footsteps staggered, and he couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh. Reluctantly, he stopped, waiting for the three disciples who were briskly chasing after him from behind.

The three, who didn't know what was going on, quickly caught up with Thunder.

"Teacher, I didn't expect the people in the town to be so welcoming, and as soon as we entered the city, they nodded and smiled at us. It feels so good. ”

"Teacher, what's wrong with you? Such an ugly face? ”

The three of them, who were still happily squeaking at the thunder, soon found that their teacher's face became very strange, and they couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Nothing. Keep up, I'll take you to where you live now. Lei Ming didn't give any explanation, he just wanted to get out of this embarrassing scene quickly.

Just when Han Yu and the others wanted to ask carefully, a voice like a silver bell sounded in front: "Uncle Lei, you have already entered the city, why don't you wait for me to pick you up at the city gate?" ”

Hearing this voice, Lei Ming let out a long breath as if he had met a savior.

A thin beauty parted from everyone on the road, and walked to the four of Lei Ming's master and apprentice, and a huge carriage pulled by four horses followed the beauty and stopped on the side of the road.

"Little sister, long time no see."

"Hello Sister Xiaoxiao!"

"Hello Sister Xiaoxiao!"

Han Yu and the others found that the beauty who came to them was Ying Xiaoxiao, who had not seen each other for several years, and they all happily stepped forward to say hello.

"Hello three brothers! Uncle Lei, get in the car, my father has arranged a place for you, and specially ordered the kitchen to prepare a first-class banquet for you. ”

"Okay, okay, huh...... I haven't seen you for a few years, you are getting longer and more out of the country, and your cultivation has also reached the realm of martial arts, not bad. Not bad. There must be a lot of people who come to your door to propose to your father, right? Have you broken the threshold? Hahaha......" Lei Ming looked at the beautiful woman in front of him who had grown from a little girl to a big girl, and joked Ying Xiaoxiao.

"Uncle Lei, I'm not coming. As soon as they met, they made fun of people. Ying Xiaoxiao blushed and stepped into the car.

"Hahaha...... Do not say. Then let's go, don't keep your father waiting. Lei Ming laughed and pulled Han Yu and them into the carriage.

Crossing the prosperous street, the carriage stopped in front of a large mansion. The plaque of the gatehouse is written with two vigorous and powerful characters: "Yingfu". The gate of the mansion faces south, enough for two carriages pulled by four horses side by side, a pair of stone lions in front, and there is a tall and strong man with a strong body and surging blood standing on both sides. Sure enough, it is the premier business alliance in Lianshan City, one of the top forces, and even the gatekeepers have martial arts cultivation.

Entering the gate, the mansion is divided into two courtyards, the front and the back, and the front yard has two groups of courtyards side by side; There are four rows of houses in front of the main entrance on the west side, which are the residences of the large and small maids of the mansion; There are also two rows of seats on the south side of the courtyard on the east side, where there are guards and warriors stationed to guard the safety of the mansion; There is a courtyard in front of the courtyard, where the housekeepers are all doing their work.

The backyard is for the family to live, and the two-storey glazed tile attic that runs through more than 50 rooms is built around it, covering an area of several acres. There is an arch in the middle of the attic that leads to the garden behind the courtyard, and there are bluestone rockeries on the left and right sides of the garden, a bamboo garden in the south, and a thousand purples and thousands of reds in the north. In front of the arch, a bluestone boulder stands at the door, behind the stone is a bat-shaped small pool, behind the pool is a bright and spacious reception hall, there are carved corridors on both sides of the hall leading to the buildings on the left and right, in the atmosphere, it seems a little elegant. The whole mansion is luxurious and magnificent.

The carriage traveled unhindered until it reached the arch of the backyard before coming to a stop. A middle-aged man wearing an elegant brocade robe, with a white face and beard, a Chinese character and a face, eyes blazing, full of wisdom, and a face somewhat similar to Ying Xiaoxiao, had already stood in front of the arch and waited.

"Mr. Lei, I haven't seen you for many years. I miss it so much! Xiao Ke has prepared a banquet for Mr. to pick up the wind and wash the dust. ”

This middle-aged man is Ying Xiaoxiao's father, the leader of the Eagle Flying Business Alliance, Ying Tiansheng, when he saw the carriage coming from a distance, he stepped forward quickly and greeted the thunder with the etiquette of a junior.
