The railway carriage galloped all the way. Indeed, as Ouyang Nan said, after the horses got on the track, they ran non-stop all day long. By nightfall, the train had traveled thousands of miles and entered a small town station in the southernmost part of Anzhou. among.
By the light of the five-meter-high pillar lights on both sides of the track as he approached the station, Li Chengfeng could see that the sleepers on the railway began to become more and more dense. In order to adapt to the rhythm of the sleepers, the horses began to adjust the frequency of their steps. , gradually the railway carriage began to slow down, especially when entering the inn, the sleepers on the railway had been so crowded that almost no gaps could be seen. It was like flat ground. The horses naturally slowed down under the control of the coachman.
Li Chengfeng saw all this and couldn't help but secretly admired: Such a design is simply exquisite and whimsical!
After entering the station, most of the people on the train were already asleep. Only Li Chengfeng and Su Yuehan were left on duty to prevent anyone from being bold enough to carry out a sneak attack.
In particular, Li Chengfeng's magical power was fully activated. The surrounding flowers and plants were growing rapidly, and they gathered around the railway tracks vigilantly. The insects crawled toward the train under the cover of darkness, and quickly crawled into every corner of the train. Lurking in a conspicuous corner, he serves as Li Chengfeng's eyes, ears and backup force.
Once someone attempts a sneak attack, Li Chengfeng will be able to get the first warning and can immediately counterattack.
But none of this happened. It was as if Li Chengfeng and the others judged a gentleman with a villain's heart. In the dark night, there seemed to be a devil that only existed in Li Chengfeng's imagination. It seemed that it did not exist at all, and It seems to be everywhere.
After the train was briefly repaired at this post station, someone immediately rang the small bell in the inn station day and night, and eight clerks in the inn station quickly stepped forward to remove the tired and sweating horse from the rope. After unloading the horses, they led them into the stables at the rear. Then a dedicated groom came forward to wash and feed the horses. Then the eight clerks took them out of the stables. After the horses were replaced, they started galloping again.
In the darkness of night, Li Chengfeng could see the railway carriage passing through the arch dedicated to railway carriages on the side of the city gate, and then passing through the side of the city. The carriage made a rumbling sound along the way, but the residents along the way could not hear it. It is obvious that one person has become accustomed to it when he comes out to watch.
While most people were sleeping without realizing it, the railway carriage continued to speed southwest and finally left the boundary of Anzhou.
In terms of the entire territory of Da Qi, except for the Qiankun Divine Sect, the state religion, the three major forces in the northwest, northeast and southeast occupy the largest area. The northwest is occupied by the Zhan family and is divided into four states and forty-three cities. In terms of area, In terms of area, Jiuyun Prefecture in the northwest is the largest, occupying almost one-tenth of the entire Daqi territory. The famous Nine Prisons and Tianya Demon Realm are located in the southwest and northeast corners of Jiuyun Prefecture.
The southeast is Long Tenghai's sphere of influence, because it is mobilizing the elites of Daqi and powerful practitioners from various sects to launch the third war in Dijon. Both sides have invested millions of troops, plus Xiang troops and levied troops. Civilians, the manpower mobilized by both sides reached an extremely shocking five million!
This battle was protracted and lasted for five years. Daqi spent a huge amount of manpower and material resources and was already riding a tiger with difficulty. In order to ensure victory, Long Tenghai issued a military order and used the heads of his family as guarantee in exchange for Zhao Bairen's trust. At the same time, he took over the financial and military administration of the entire five southeastern states. Now Long Tenghai has become a veritable king of the southeast, with many troops under his command. Hundreds of thousands, famous generals are like clouds, and advisers are like rain.
The northeast is the territory of the Lingshan sect, which is also divided into three states, of which Anzhou is the largest. After leaving Anzhou, rush southwest into the ground of Huizhou, and then pass through Xinzhou, Yuezhou, and Shouyang Prefecture. Arrive in Gyeonggi area.
This also means that after Li Chengfeng came to this world, he entered the core central area of this huge ancient empire for the first time.
But what Li Chengfeng regrets is that he has not really entered the divine capital, nor has he truly seen what the heart of this unprecedentedly large and powerful empire looks like in its capital.
When Emperor Taizu conquered the territory of Daqi, Emperor Taizong opened up the territory everywhere and built this city, which is known as the best city in the world. He wrote a poem: The east wind is bleak and the west wind sinks, and the grass on the battlefield of hundreds of battles is gone. The rolling waves of the river pass away, and the green mountains pass away, but the eternal rivers and mountains and the eternal city!
Eternal city! I’m talking about this city that is said to never fall!
After Emperor Taizong built the capital, he named it Shenjing. He believed that if Daqi's mountains and rivers had a lifespan of a thousand years, then the city of Shenjing would have a lifespan of ten thousand years!
Li Chengfeng had heard about Shenjing in many poems and classics since he was a child, and he had long been curious and yearned for it. But this time, he could only see the high and magnificent Shenwu Palace in the center of Shenjing from a distance.
"The emperor regards the four seas as his home. He cannot be majestic unless he is magnificent!" At that time, the empire was in dire straits. Emperor Taizong made Shenjing his capital and wanted to build the capital in a simple way. However, Prime Minister Le'an persuaded Emperor Taizong that the more this happened, the more likely it would be. We must highlight the majesty of Daqi with majestic architectural wonders!
Therefore, Emperor Taizong recruited 100,000 civilians to build this ancient and dazzling palace: Shenwu Palace!
Li Chengfeng heard that this palace occupies nearly a quarter of the area of Shenjing. Even if the outer city of Shenjing falls and the inner city retreats, the fortresses, fortresses, walls, munitions, grain, grass, and water inside can be enough for twenty Thousands of people held on for fifteen years!
This data is shocking just thinking about it!
Even if you don't enter Shenjing City, you can still see the Shenwu Palace towering in the center of the city by following the track around Shenjing City!
Li Chengfeng looked at the top of Shenwu Palace in Shenjing City in amazement. He whispered: "I wonder when I can get a glimpse of Kyoto?"
Su Yuehan said in a low voice: "If you get double champion in the assessment rating, you will probably be selected and sent to represent Lingshan to participate in the Kyoto Fighting Competition held every five years. When the time comes, you can see it how you want. But... There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Shenjing, and there are many masters. If you act like you did in Lingshan, I'm afraid not even the bones will be left."
Li Chengfeng smiled bitterly and said, "In your eyes, am I such an ignorant person?"
Su Yuehan snorted and said: "Take a look at what you have done since you joined the Lingshan Sect? Which one of them do you know the importance of?"
Li Chengfeng smiled and made no excuses. He looked at the Gyeonggi Station getting closer and closer and whispered: "We are here."
The speed of the Guanchi Road was indeed astonishing. The rail carriage ran continuously for five days and five nights. On the night of the sixth day, it finally arrived at Shenjing, which was nearly ten thousand miles away!
Li Chengfeng and others were extremely anxious. They knew that they had to immediately send Huangfu Song and other servants to Tongyuanbo Villa on the outskirts of Beijing. Otherwise, the mission would not be completed.
But as long as it is delivered, they will have completed their mission. Whether these people live or die afterwards has nothing to do with them. At this time, they must immediately go to the teleportation area in the capital, teleport back to Jun'an through the teleportation tower's magic circle, and then rush back to the Lingshan Sect.
Li Chengfeng felt the rail carriage gradually slow down and stop beside the platform of the extremely huge and prosperous Gyeonggi Station. He couldn't help but whisper: "I hope the teleportation area in Shenjing will not be temporarily closed again, otherwise... That's really... Calling heaven and earth should not cause them to fail!"
