Shanfeng City is one of the northern gateways to Fufeng Shenchao.
Over the past few years, the Supreme Demon Kingdom's southeastern expedition has led the Yin Wujiu to command the army and launch a full-scale attack on the Fufeng Dynasty. Shanfeng City bore the brunt of the attack and was attacked wildly by Yin Wushuang's vanguard army, resulting in extremely heavy casualties.
If Yin Wushuang hadn't suddenly led his army to stir up trouble in Wu Kingdom, with the strength of his attack, Shanfeng City would have been destroyed in more than a month.
Wu Tie, who put on a burlap gown and dressed in a sour-rotten Vincent attire, carried a small package and an oil-paper umbrella, and jogged all the way to the outside of Shanfeng City.
There was drizzle in the sky, and the plain north of Shanfeng City had been messed up by successive years of fierce battles. The black-red ground was barren of grass, and the rain made the ground muddy. There was a faint smell of blood and putrid smell in the air.
After several years of fierce fighting, God knows how many lives Yin Wushuang's vanguard army lost under the city. The bodies of the soldiers who died in battle have been reanimated, but their blood has soaked the earth.
Walking through the thick mud, Wu Tie mingled with a group of fleeing people and stood outside the dilapidated gate of Shanfeng City.
A group of tall and muscular men shouted slogans loudly, using alloy levers as thick as a bowl to carry a door that was more than ten feet high, five or six feet wide, and three feet thick, slowly. Came from the city.
Dozens of strong men wielded sledgehammers and smashed down the broken city gate bit by bit from the city wall. There were skilled weapon refiners and formation masters working on the city gate, reinforcing the wall where the city gate was located, and outlining the formation. Method, reset the door shaft and other things.
Dozens of soldiers with lean faces, bodies full of the smell of blood, tattered armors, and nicks on the blades of their weapons stood outside the door, shouting loudly at the influx of refugees.
"Don't be chaotic, don't be chaotic, everyone should register here."
"Report your identity, register your cultivation, and receive your identity badge before you can enter the city."
"The ugly words are ahead. If there are any devils who want to sneak into the city, get out of here."
"If you are found out as a spy in the city, it will be difficult for you to die!"
Next to the main entrance, which was busy being renovated, under a gap in the city wall that had been broken, dozens of officials in blue robes and hats sat behind a row of wooden tables. A large group of refugees gathered in front of the wooden tables, shouting at the top of their lungs.
A brass mirror with a faint spiritual light was suspended in the gap in the city wall. The mirror's light was like the bright moon, constantly sweeping over the refugees who were loudly announcing their identity and origin in front of the wooden table.
Under the illumination of the mirror, various lights flashed on these refugees from time to time.
Wu Tie queued up among the crowd. With his cultivation, it shouldn't be difficult to sneak into the city without concealing it from the petty officials and soldiers at the city gate.
But Wu Tie was keenly aware that there was an aura in Shanfeng City that made him feel slightly threatening.
That aura was broad, thick, and as blazing as the sun. It was not the aura of a living being, but a kind of spiritual treasure wave generated by heaven and earth. Moreover, this wave was vaguely connected to everyone in Shanfeng City, guarding the entire city.
To be able to persist for so long under the crazy attack of the Supreme Demon Kingdom, Shanfeng City, or Fufeng Shenchao, certainly has some of their trump cards.
The Sui Dynasty also had a fire-passing formation, but Wu Tie did not dare to underestimate the foundation of the Fufeng Dynasty.
Therefore, Wu Tie calmed down his aura calmly, mingled with the crowd like a refugee, and lined up step by step in front of the wooden table.
I have just listened to the identities reported by many refugees. This group of refugees are all lucky people who escaped from a state north of Shanfeng City that was sacked by the demonic army.
Wu Tie also memorized several place names, and with the help of his huge soul power, he learned the dialects of these refugees in a very short time.
He casually made up a family background for himself, giving off a slight Buddhist aura.
In the precious mirror hanging on the gap in the city wall, a warm golden light flashed across Wu Tie's body.
The clerk who was copying the birth history reported by Wu Tie suddenly raised his head and took a deep look at Wu Tie: "Buddhist Kung Fu?"
Wu Tie bowed his hands to the young official and said calmly: "By luck, I got a Buddhist scripture deep in the mountains and gained some cultivation."
The identity badges distributed by these officials to other refugees were all made of ironwood. However, after hearing Wu Tie admit that he had practiced Buddhist techniques, the clerk who gave him the information about his enthronement took out a copper badge. He made a hand seal and printed the word "Wu Tie" on the bronze medal.
After handing the bronze medal to Wu Tie, a slight smile appeared on the numb and stiff face of this young official: "Buddhist skills and the cultivation of the womb realm are very good... Shanfeng City needs you like this. people."
"If you are living a life without security, or if you want to avenge your relatives, the city defense forces of Shanfeng City should consider it."
"With the national crisis facing us, the risks for the city defense army are extremely high, but the salary is extremely high, and as long as you make a great contribution, you will be given an excellent panacea to help you improve your cultivation. It is not difficult."
Wu Tie took the bronze medal, looked at the clerk and walked towards the gap in the wall entering the city without saying a word.
The clerk turned around again, looked at Wu Tie and said in a deep voice: "Remember, you outsiders, after entering the city, can only live together in the refugee camp in the northeast corner. If you walk around and bump into each other, you will be killed." If you find out, you won't be punished as a spy from the Demon Kingdom."
"The country is facing a crisis. Looking at your high-spirited body, I guess you are also a good man... Joining the army may be a good way."
Shaking his head, the clerk turned around and looked at the men who were crowding up behind Wu Tie.
He said solemnly: "If the war goes unfavorably, you will also be forcibly recruited, but the soldiers who are forcibly recruited will not be treated as well as the heroes who actively join the army."
Wu Tie weighed the bronze medal in his hand, which had a hint of mana fluctuation, and said without looking back: "I understand, thank you sir, I will consider it... Is the war really bad for us?"
The clerk and several colleagues around him heard Wu Tie's words.
They grinned at the same time and laughed silently.
Shaking their heads, they continued their intense work. There are more and more refugees queuing up, and behind them, more groups of refugees can be seen slowly coming towards Shanfeng City.
"The world is difficult." When Wu Tie entered the city, one of the low-ranking officers who stood by the gap in the city wall and kept looking at the refugees entering the city, a big man who was missing an arm, sighed in a low voice.
In Shanfeng City, there are soldiers patrolling in the streets and alleys.
Foreign refugees like Wu Tie were supervised by auxiliary soldiers and were not allowed to wander around. Instead, they followed a specially designated avenue and gathered in the northeast corner of Shanfeng City.
This was originally a large residential area, but the war razed it to the ground.
Millions of refugees gathered here, and the ground was covered with wooden shacks and thatched huts, and there were whispers of crying and moaning everywhere.
