Ye Qi walked slowly along the road paved with gravel enough for two carriages to drive side by side. This road is not wide and is the only road connecting the inner city and the outer city. Although other places can look up The inner city, but if you want to enter the inner city, it is basically impossible for ordinary people without tools to enter the inner city under the surveillance of towers and the guard of the inner city wall that is about fifteen feet high.
In the silent night, Ye Qi's footsteps were very clear when walking on the gravel road. Under the friction of the footsteps against the leather sole and small stones, the unique sound could be heard far away in this silent environment. , attracted the attention of the patrol soldiers; however, it was obvious that these patrol soldiers had received the warning from the previous patrol leader, and after seeing Ye Qi, they did not ask any questions, but continued to patrol after only respectfully saluting—although For the system of the entire Qiulin District, Ye Qi disdains from the bottom of his heart, but facing the "convenience and quickness" brought by his identity, at least for the annoying Ye Qi, he still feels very "comfortable"!
At the end of the gravel road is a small circular square. Of course, in Qiulin District, you should not expect decorations such as fountains on the small square in the lower city; here, the role of this small square is to Post notices and become a regular special, and marketplace for downtown residents to buy and sell items.
On one side of the small circular square, the gate leading to the inner city is firmly locked, and six heavily armed guards are guarding there—the gap between status levels in Qiulin District is as insurmountable as an abyss ; From his partner, the little man, Ye Qi heard more than once that local civilians were whipped for trespassing into the inner city by mistake, and they were often beaten to pieces and thrown back to the outer city after dying.
As for Uptown
Any civilian who dares to break into the upper city will face hanging without exception.
Of course, there are no exceptions to this rule, even for outside tourists—outside tourists who want to enter the Qiulin District not only need to go through a long application process, but also need to pay a considerable amount of Kimpton; and these Kimpton In addition to the relevant handling fees, the function is to ensure that they can pass through the outer city and the inner city smoothly; while the upper city will not be open to any tourists, even if there are more Kimptons. No, there is no special situation, there is only a dead end!
Don't think about those travel agencies coming forward to negotiate. This is a result that is difficult to reverse even if the highest government comes forward. The stubbornness and irrationality shown by the various families in Qiulin District in the face of their "dignity damage" are far beyond any People's imagination; therefore, any foreign tourists who enter Qiulin District will get a travel brochure recording where they can go and where they can't go at the first moment of entering Qiulin District. The place is marked with bloody skulls, which are unusually eye-catching.
"Hello, Your Excellency!"
Facing the greeting from a guard on the opposite side, Ye Qi nodded slightly, and gestured to the other side with the badge that Efro had handed to him earlier - the guards in the inner city are different from the patrols in the outer city. The guards are all "private soldiers" from various families in Hongye City, and there are even some collateral disciples of some families among them. At least, anyone who enters the inner city will not be cold-eyed or swear at these guards; ordinary businessmen dare not, and the same status is out of respect for the other party's same status as themselves, while people of higher status are out of respect. Disdain in self-cultivation.
The badge of the Dick family is undoubtedly very useful in Red Leaf City. When the guards saw the badge, they immediately bowed and let it go. This is especially true for the family of one of the city's rulers.
"Your Excellency, you go slowly!"
Amidst the reverent salutes of the guards, Ye Qi walked into the inner city—even in the dark, Ye Qi could clearly feel the difference between this place and the outer city as soon as he stepped into the inner city; The lawn and trees were trimmed very neatly, and a fountain carved with a statue of a mermaid appeared directly in the eyes of Ye Qi who had just stepped into the inner city. Although he didn't know which famous artist this statue came from, the lifelike mermaid has already made people feel excited. Ye Qi nodded secretly. Except for the statues seen in some places in the central castle of Shaker's headquarters, which can be compared with it, the statues in other places are undoubtedly a bit worse.
Under the moonlight, countless drops of water sprinkled from the long-necked bottle held by the mermaid statue; It's like showing people a beautiful singing voice; and if the sun is shining during the day, Ye Qi can be sure that this beauty will be more intense again, making everyone amazed.
Go straight to the fountain, after about two hundred steps, turn right at a house with a brown roof covered with ivy...
Recalling the map in his mind a few times, Ye Qi carefully looked for the buildings marked on the map in the dark - although the map is a bit crude, but Afro's previous description is undoubtedly very detailed. Compared with the hatchback, Ye Qi It took about 20 minutes to walk to a pointed two-story house with a courtyard and an attic.
Looking at the locked gate, and the logo on the lock in the middle of the gate, which is the same as the badge in his arms, representing the Dick family pattern, Ye Qi took out the key that Afro had prepared for him— Although there is a courtyard, the entire courtyard is not big, and there can only be two carriages at most. Outside the Qiulin District, such courtyards and houses can't be said to be everywhere, and they are also very common. In the forest area, after seeing the structure of houses in the lower city and some houses in the inner city, Ye Qi understood very well that such a courtyard is undoubtedly a symbol of identity and status in Hongye City, especially when there is a sign of the Dick family on the gate. Even more so when it comes to badges.
Walking through the courtyard, Ye Qi opened the door and entered the room, glanced at the neat furnishings in the room, and conveniently put the backpack behind him on the hanger behind the door—although there were some more information on the clothes prepared by Afro for him inside. It’s good to play some items of Feith, but it is undoubtedly more important to get familiar with Feith’s residence first; and Ye Qi believes that if you find some useful things in Feith’s residence, it will definitely be more valuable than the items prepared by Afro. It is valuable, after all, you always know yourself better than others.
