supreme heaven

() Qin Guyue looked around, and saw that this city wall was not made of masonry either. From the material point of view, it was different from the stone city wall of Tianzhou. This city wall was made of sand mixed with water and then mixed with stones. It should be regarded as a unique earth city. .

This is a very ancient method of building a city that he has read in books. It was first seen in the "War Records of the Past Dynasties" compiled during the founding of the previous dynasty. Ma Tengchong used this method to build a city in the northwest desert, and it was completed in half a month. After more than [-] battles, the city did not collapse.

Although after the Demon God Castle incident, Qin Guyue quickly thought by analogy that the former Zhenxi General Ma Tengchong built the city to resist the ancestors of the Meizu, but this way of building the city was originally for the Tianzhou army. The method that I had to come up with to build a city on a desert without large stones was unexpectedly inherited and carried forward here.

Moreover, the records in "The War of Chronicles" also confirmed one point from the side: the city built in this way is indeed very strong!

Just as Qin Guyue was looking at the surrounding city walls, the three of them had already walked in front of the man in the Northwest frontier costume.

The man was still very young, probably less than 20 years old. He was wearing a sapphire blue wide-mouthed long-sleeved top and dark blue lantern pants. The three people in front of me.

"Hmph, take them forty low-grade spirit stones!" The man looked at the three of them and snorted.

Just when Mo Junwu was still confused, he was about to ask Shangguan Tianqi: "What is a low-grade spirit stone?" Shangguan Tianqi said first: "This Keshi, the villain is The ronin from Tianzhou doesn't have so many spirit stones on him, can we replace them with green coins from our Tianzhou?"

At this moment, Qin Guyue immediately understood that "Ke Shi" should be some kind of official position in this northwest region, or a respectful name. Moreover, the currency here does not seem to be the copper coins circulated among the people in Tianzhou, that is, green coins. It's not gold or silver, but spirit stones... But things like spirit stones should be very rare in Tianzhou, right?Why are there so many here that you can circulate freely?

However, it takes 44 ten low-grade spirit stones to enter a city. Isn't this city gate tax too expensive?

Just when Qin Guyue was puzzled, the young man slapped his thigh, and shouted with a strong local accent: "Qingqian? Qingqian is used in your Tianzhou, get it from our League What's the use of coming from the city? Green coins are not enough, but gold is fine!"

After finishing speaking, he squinted his eyes, looked at the three of them, then licked his lips, and casually said, "50 taels of gold, if it's not enough, please take a detour and don't enter the city."

This time, Mo Jun understood everything.

Entering a city gate, 50 taels of gold?Why don't you grab it!

Just when Mo Jun was about to explode, Qin Guyue stretched out her hand, tugged at his sleeve, and gave this Haoran Sword Master, whose sense of justice was bursting instantly, a "wait and see" look.

I don't know if Shangguan Tianqi is really rich, or if he is afraid of causing trouble, he bent down, took out a gold foil talisman from his arms with a smile, held it in front of the young man and said, "We are heaven The rogues in Zhouzhou do not have so much gold and silver on their bodies. Here is a talisman drawn by a master of Tianzhou physiognomy. The base is made of gold leaf. The market price outside should be about 200 taels of gold. I wonder if it can be..."

Just when Qin Guyue wanted to complain about this uncle, Wang Po sold melons and boasted, and the cost of this gold leaf was at most five taels of gold, the young man snatched it directly from Shangguan Tianqi's hand, and held it in his hand Inside, I looked over and over again, and finally said: "Okay, then you go to the city!"

At that moment, Shangguan Tianqi straightened up, pulled Mo Junwu and Qin Guyue beside him, and walked towards the city.

After walking a few steps, Mo Junwu couldn't bear his temper, and directly blackmailed 50 taels of gold when he entered a city gate, and he even blackmailed a physiognomy master of the fifth level of Houtu, plus two seniors of Xingjie rank Dude, let me go, is it tolerable or unbearable!

Just when Mo Junwu was thinking about whether to settle the score after Qiu Hou and stab the blind "Ke Shi" to death with a sword, Shangguan Tianqi stopped him: "You forget that I told you before entering the city Have you spoken?"

"But, senior, 50 taels of gold to enter a city gate is too expensive." Although Qin Guyue didn't save money for this wretched uncle, she also felt a little uncomfortable, as if when eating, she clearly saw the bowl A fly landed in it, and it felt like I had to eat it.Such a tangled feeling is understandable.

"Do you all think they are targeting us?" Shangguan Tianqi said to the two of them through voice transmission as he walked: "I have said in many books that the people in the northwestern border do not have a good impression of us in Tianzhou. There were also many robberies and killings, probably because he saw that although we were dressed in the clothes of the people in the Northwest, we were Tianzhou people, so he knocked us off... He probably said that to any Tianzhou people. If you bargain with him, it will attract the attention of these people... Well, do you understand?"

Faced with this wretched uncle who loved money like his life, Qin Guyue and Mo Junwu had no choice but to nod their heads today, Quan Zuo understood.

"But I really didn't expect, senior, you understand the customs and customs of this northwest land so clearly!" Mo Jun couldn't help but praise.

Shangguan Tianqi smiled lightly and said: "As I said, I have been planning the trip to China for decades. Knowing the customs and customs of the northwest is a must... but you are very single. , don’t know anything, just left Jiamen pass, do you want to take refuge outside the pass?”

"It's not all..." Mo Junwu thought for a while, but swallowed the words and said, "I will talk about this to senior slowly when the time is right in the future!"

Qin Guyue noticed this change in expression, at the beginning he wondered, Tianzhou is so big, why did Mo Jun want to leave Jiamen Pass westward, flee to the northwest instead of going to other places?With the relationship between Great Chu and the current imperial court, it is better to go to the Great Chu with his star status, or even Yan Wujun, the "Bing Gehou" of Great Chu, than to go west!

Sure enough, what happened!

Just as the three of them entered through the city gate and were walking while talking, they suddenly heard a person behind him shouting: "Three friends, please stay!"
