Chapter 172 Arrive at the Imperial Capital

The croaking of frogs and the unique fragrance of soil in the fields came at the same time, accompanied by the night wind and the shouts around. Lights on both sides of the streets were dotted like gems on the curtain called the night. It was a wonderful experience to be in this environment that combines the prosperity of the city and the quietness of the countryside.

Many people did not stop and continued to move forward. It would not take long before entering the territory of Gyeonggi. For some people who went to Beijing for the first time, they were somewhat anxious.

Zhang Zhongjun naturally did not belong to this type of person. He moved forward slowly on his own. The big frog didn't smoke. He squatted above Zhang Zhongjun's head and looked around. When he saw something new, he grabbed Xiaobai, who was a satellite, and stuffed it under its butt, and then flew over to check it out with Xiaobai.

Although Xiaobai would protest and scream every time, he even hid in Zhang Zhongjun's arms and refused to come out.

Unfortunately, it didn't hide for a few seconds and then automatically appeared as a satellite again. Naturally, it was caught by the big frog as a mount. After being driven to end the liberation, Xiaobai hid again with a big cute eye and fell into repeated repetitions again and again. In Zhang Zhongjun's opinion, the two guys, Big Frog and Xiaobai, were having a lot of fun.

However, Zhang Zhongjun was a little surprised: "Senior brother, does Xiaobai also have the ability to hide? I think others have not discovered Xiaobai's existence at all."

"Of course, otherwise, there would be a rotating satellite around you all day long, which would be too eye-catching. If you hide it like this, wouldn't you be very comfortable?" The big frog said proudly, as if it was a creditor.

Zhang Zhongjun was naturally very satisfied with this state. He walked all the way and unknowingly arrived at the end of the road.

"Is this the level to enter Gyeonggi? You knew what you knew when you talked about Gyeonggi before?" The big frog asked curiously.

"Haha, senior brother, don't you know a lot about the empire?" Zhang Zhongjun asked with a smile.

"How did I know that so much imperial knowledge would pop up in my mind, but now I don't have the information about the Gyeonggi level in my mind!" The big frog muttered dissatisfied, but it didn't ask. As a senior brother, he must have dignity and cannot make Zhang Zhongjun, the junior brother, proud!

The checkpoints in Gyeonggi are built very magnificently, with a very enlarged wind and rain bridge, which are just built directly on the official road. On the front is a archway-style attic, with an inexplicably fierce stone-carved monster on both sides. Hanging above the attic is a plaque with the words "Shannan Jinggi Pass".

When people passed under the towering level, you could see a towering tiled shed above your head, and on both sides of the upper side were restaurants hanging outwards. Many people parked livestock and vehicles on the first floor, that is, on both sides of the official road, but people were drinking and eating on the second floor, and from time to time looked down at the crowd passing through the first floor, which made them feel inexplicably.

The big frog was a little surprised: "Damn! This is a complex of land wind and rain bridges, levels and stations! You looked like you offered treasures and asked me to see this?!" The big frog reacted and became a little angry.

"Who asked you to see this?" Zhang Zhongjun curled his lips: "Follow it and watch!"

When I rode my horse through this land wind and rain bridge that was three or four hundred meters long, I arrived at the exit, and there were more than a dozen water curtains. Finally, I was in the guard. When the people passed by, the people who were staying in the car must come out and receive the washing of the water curtain.

"What is this? Dust removal equipment?" The big frog stared at Xiqi.

"No, it is used to determine the number of foreigners entering Gyeonggi and distinguish the criminals who sneaked into Gyeonggi." Zhang Zhongjun said calmly, while riding a horse through the water curtain.

"Quli? This water curtain does not wet the clothes, but only paints a layer of smell that ordinary people cannot smell on the living body. Moreover, the stay time is too long, right? If nothing unexpected happens, it can stay for more than a hundred years! Who made this? It's a waste of resources!" The big frog croaked while feeling the water curtain as thin as paper.

"This was created by the Gyeonggi General Captain who was responsible for Gyeonggi security many years ago. It is said that animals living on Gyeonggi land are used to this smell. As long as strangers have this smell, as long as they don't steal chickens and dogs, they will not cause animal reactions. However, once there is no such smell, it will cause irritable attacks from livestock and poultry. Gyeonggi is like countless people who are vigilant to monitor outsiders. When leaving Gyeonggi, brush the water curtain again from the checkpoint where they go out to eliminate the smell."

"It can be said that as long as you don't leave, the smell will stay on your body. If you want to eliminate it, you have to leave the boundary of Gyeonggi. It is said that after this water curtain appears, the security in Gyeonggi has improved many times, and this thing looks so expensive, but it is just a drop in the bucket for the Gyeonggi yamen." Zhang Zhongjun explained casually.

"Quli, awesome! Isn't this forcing outsiders to smuggle in from other places? But this can only prevent ordinary people? Some people with more channels can directly get items with that kind of smell. Can you enter and exit at will without passing the level?" The big frog had a question again.

"I was originally guarding against those little thieves, because these little thieves are the culprits who consume most of their energy, and those capable people are not something that the public security yamen can do." Zhang Zhongjun smiled.

"I think this is a bit too formal. You see, you just brush the water curtain after passing the test and don't even check the ID. Even if some thieves pass the level, they may not find it, right?" The big frog said disdainfully.

"I don't know this. Anyway, the rule of passing the level water curtain has existed for hundreds of years and has not been abolished. I'm afraid there is something special about it." Zhang Zhongjun said distractedly.

The big frog touched his chin and turned his head to look at the dozens of water curtains set at the exit of the level. The crowd passed by, and he couldn't help but nod and muttered: "I'm afraid this smell contains something that we don't know."

"Who knows this? Anyway, if you don't brush the water curtain, you will beat all kinds of animals as soon as you go out. There are so many troubles. Don't we want to do anything bad. If you brush the smell, you will brush the smell. When we visit our adoptive father and see the auction, we will get the contact information from the Shadow Gate, we will leave the imperial capital. Then we will brush the smell through the water curtain and not be able to brush it off?" Zhang Zhongjun was very open-minded. Last time Xiao Dezi was ordered to patrol the five northwest countries, he told him about his father's father's acceptance of Li Mude as his adopted son. He did not have that big prejudice against the eunuchs, and it was his father's death will, so he quickly accepted it.
