Chapter 85: The South Gate of the Imperial Capital

Dahu Empire, the imperial capital Qucheng, the south gate.

Magnificent city walls, blue bricks and white gray, regular inlays.

The tall city wall standing towering between heaven and earth is majestic and breathtaking.

The tall and thick city gate weighs more than thousands of kilograms, so it is difficult for human resources to push the thick city gate. Only by using machine-branched gears can the opening and closing of the huge city gate be controlled.

...

The tall city gate at the south gate of the imperial capital was guarded by twenty guardians. They were lined up in two groups on the left and right, standing neatly on both sides of the city gate.

The eight soldiers in the front line were all straight and tall, wearing all golden heavy armor.

The weapons carried by these eight people were different. Some of them held red tassel spears, while others had big swords hanging on their waists.

At this moment, they were all standing majestic like wooden sculptures, with their eyes staring forward with bright eyes.

...

Arranged behind these eight golden heavily armored soldiers were eight soldiers with sharp swords on their waists.

These eight people are different from the eight people in front, and these eight people are all wearing tight black clothes and wearing black gold light armor on the outside.

The eight people behind are not as tall as the eight people in front.

And these eight people looked thin and sperm. At this moment, they held their heads and chests, pressed their hands on the hilt of the sword, and their sharp eyes were bright.

And the eight people behind them kept scanning everything around them.

They seemed to be able to pull out the sharp sword at their waists at any time, and in just breathing, they could stab a sharp sword at the invading enemy. This sword was enough to threaten their opponents.

...

The two soldiers in the last line were covered with silver-white heavy armor.

The two men standing at the end of the queue had no weapons in their hands.

At this moment, the two people standing at the end of the queue stood in a corner like rocks. Any carriage items entering and leaving the city gate must be inspected by these two people.

From time to time, a faint green light scattered out from time to time. However, during the day, the strong sunlight immediately covered the green light on the two of them. Therefore, it is difficult for anyone to notice that there is a faint green light on the two of them, which disappears and emits from time to time.

...

Among these two rows of soldiers, two chief and deputy garrisons, one tall and one short, stood solemnly, who were in charge of the southern gate of the imperial capital.

Whenever there are idle people coming to the south gate to cause trouble, these two chief and deputy guards have the right to take action first and then report.

No matter how high your official status is, or if you are a wealthy family from that family who dares to come to the south gate of the imperial capital to cause trouble, these two small city gate guards have the right to punish you.

Of course, no one will deliberately come to the gate of the imperial capital to cause trouble. After all, there are tens of thousands of imperial guards in the imperial capital responsible for the security work of the imperial capital. They all have reached the gate of the imperial capital. How could the imperial guards stand by and watch?

It is rumored that the imperial guards in the Imperial Guards were all warriors crawling out of the dead. They were all brave and good at fighting, and they were all masters with unique skills. If they got out of their heads, wouldn’t they have to tear them alive?

The world is so big, but there are all kinds of strange things. There are really one or two playboys who are not afraid of death who want to make trouble on Tai Sui's head.

More than 20 years ago, Liu Xiong, the eldest son of Liu Yong, the Duke of Dalu, was arrogant and rude since childhood.

On this day, Liu Xiong invited three or five wealthy children to go out to the suburbs to go out for a walk. Because Liu Xiong and others were attached to the scenery in the suburbs, when they returned, it happened to be when the city gate was closed.

Liu Xiong and others returned home for more than ten seconds, and the gatekeeper followed the rules and refused to let go. The young and reckless Liu Xiong was immediately angry. He humiliated the gatekeeper, and kept throwing stones, smashing the city gate, and asked the gatekeeper to open the door immediately.

Seeing this, the rich children who were accompanying him came forward to persuade Liu Xiong. The angry Liu Xiong not only did not listen to a single word, but he even vented his anger on the rich children.

The rich children had a kind intention to persuade him, but they did not expect that they would cause trouble and were beaten up by the arrogant and domineering Liu Xiong. So the rich children crawled to the ground and hid far away.

Liu Xiong beat the rich children away. Before his anger, he continued to smash the city gate and humiliate the guards.

Later, the gatekeeper was angry and flew out a sword and cut off Liu Xiong's head.

Afterwards, the guard who killed Liu Xiong was not only not punished by the king because of this incident, but was named by the king and promoted three levels in a row and rewarded them with a large amount of money.

From then on, the king issued an order to guard the imperial capital, and had the right to take action first and then report to those who caused trouble at the imperial capital.

...

At this moment, at the south gate of the imperial capital, these two gates were punctual, looking up at the distance from time to time, and then shook their heads gently, as if they were worried, as if they were anxious to be waiting for something.

...

Suddenly, a group of people rushed from afar, rushing towards the south gate of the imperial capital.

The two goalkeepers, seeing the team from afar, felt a little nervous.

They looked into the distance in a panic for a while, but because the distance was far, it was difficult to see the appearance of the team.

...

The team of people ran very fast, and in just a moment, they rushed to the city gate.

The two city gate guards then saw the appearance of the team of horses. They immediately smiled and greeted the team of horses.

"The last generals and others welcome the Grand Sima, the National Guardian, and the Grand General of the State to return to the capital."

The two city gate guards bowed respectfully to the people who came, and the compliments in their words were very strong.

Behind these two gatekeepers, twenty gatekeepers knelt neatly on one knee at this moment, and said in unison: "Welcome the Grand Sima, the National Guardian, and the Grand General of the State to return to the capital."

Sima Mao took the lead, slapped his horse forward, and clasped his fists to the twenty-two gatekeepers on the horse's back and said, "All the gatekeepers, you are fearless of the scorching sun, and are loyal to your duties and strictly control the southern gate of our Dalu Imperial Capital. It is really hard work.

You don’t have to be so polite. You and others have heavy tasks. Please go back to your post and guard the southern gate of my imperial capital."

...

The Dahu Empire's 100,000 wolf cavalry and golden armor retreated from the desert in the northwest to its territory. Sima Mao ordered the deputy commander to lead the troops back to the original garrison.

Sima Mao himself followed the Daluo Guardian wizard, Hei Qilin, and the country-controlling general Dongfang Yufu and his team of dozens of cavalry, rushed to the imperial capital Qucheng to report to the Daluo Emperor.

Of course, when the Dahwa Empire's 100,000 wolf cavalry and golden armor returned to the court, Sima Mao arranged a commander to send the news back to the imperial capital in advance.

Therefore, the city gate guards were able to learn about the Grand Sima and his party, and they would return to the capital in the near future.

So, the city gate guards were always nervous for the past two days. From the morning bell ringing and opening the city gate, to the evening drum closing, the city gate guards were all worried all day long, fearing that they would neglect these famous powerful people in the Dalu Empire.

...

After all, in that country, the strong can swallow all the weaknesses.

Like these two city gate guards, they were very humble in their official positions. How insignificant are their lives in front of the most powerful nobles in Dalu?

...

Life is like a mustard of grass. If you want to survive in the world safely, you will be unable to neglect in front of the powerful and powerful.

As soon as Sima Mao said this, the soldiers guarding the gate responded in unison without hesitation: "Yes."

The twenty-two goalkeepers immediately straightened their backs and stood on both sides of the city gate, watching Sima Mao and his group of dozens of people enter the city one by one.

After Sima Mao and his party went far away, the two city gate guards took a long breath. They wiped the sweat beads on their foreheads and said in their hearts: "It's good that's okay."

The guard of the main gate turned his head and took a look, waiting for the people who were on the side, preparing to enter and exit the capital, immediately took a breath and shouted to everyone: "You can let go."

For a moment, the southern gate of the imperial capital, which had been calm for a moment, instantly returned to the hustle and bustle of the past.

Merchants, people, and some wealthy children who entered and left the imperial capital consciously lined up, waiting for inspection.

...

In the central area of ​​the country of Cyan, on an official road outside a certain suburb.

Yue Ye suddenly felt a little excited, pointed to Lu Bao, which was gradually moving away, and shouted excitedly at Mu Sifan. "Lu Bao? That's right, it's Lu Bao of Brother Meng!"

Mu Sifan nodded and said "Yes", then stared at the front with a puzzled look on his face, muttering to himself: "How could Lu Bao appear here?"

Yue Ye scratched his head, thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Lu Bao should have been captured by Da Kui. Why did it suddenly appear here? And he came here with this team of men?"

When Yue Ye talked about this, he slapped his head suddenly and rushed towards the horse, shouting to Mu Sifan: "Sifan, get on the horse quickly, let's ride on the horse and find out what's going on."

The two of them rode and rushed to run. After a while, they still couldn't catch up with the team in front.

After all, the team of people in front was all riding one by one. The load on the back of the horses under their crotch was lighter, so they naturally ran faster.

Not only Yue Ye and Mu Sifan ride together on the same horse, but they are already carrying a lot of bags on their backs. Under such heavy burden, the foal's foot strength is naturally not as good as the foot strength of each person and each riding.

Following the official road in the suburbs, he ran all the way for a while. Suddenly, a fork in front of Yueye and Mu Sifan, a fork in the road appeared. Yueye hurriedly tightened the reins and stopped at the fork in the road.

Both of them looked at the two paths that had been forked in front of them, and they were silent for a moment.

...

"Brother Ye, which one should we go in front of these two paths?" Mu Sifan frowned and asked Yue Ye.

Yue Ye sighed, looked at the two roads in front carefully, and then shook his head gently and said, "The road surface has been dry and hard for a long time, and the two roads in front have shallow and hoof prints. It is really difficult to tell which team of people just now, and the path they were walking on."

Mu Sifan opened his eyes wide, and she stared at the fork in front of her, with an anxious look on her face, and suddenly said, "Then which road should we take?"

Yue Ye smiled bitterly and said, "The wilderness is silent now and there is no one around. We can only take one step at a time. Why don't we just pick a road and walk it and see it!"

Mu Sifan nodded in agreement, then pointed to the wider road on the right, and said with a blank look: "Then let's go to the road on the right?"

"good!"

Yue Ye responded, then slapped his horse and ran towards the road to the right.
