Lu Yu knew from this that Lu Qian used to swing when she was sleeping.
During the half-night, he was crushed under his body, almost suffocating to death.
…
In the next few days, Lu Yu received meticulous care, although it was much worse than Xiao Ruan’s previous care, and... the supplies of this barbaric clan were really not too much. Even if they tried their best, they actually took care of Lu Yu. It's not considered thoughtful, but it is something that Lu Yu can feel.
After that, it was the journey.
The goal was naturally the border of the Eastern Jin Kingdom. It was originally a zone that didn’t care about anything. But for some reason, the Emperor Donglai suddenly sent troops there. A hundred thousand troops will clear all the forces there, and all bandits will be ruled out, even around the corner. There was no beast within a hundred miles, and a hundred thousand army was used to build a magnificent city there.
But just as people in the whole continent thought that the Emperor Donglai would soon regard it as an outpost of the Eastern Jin Kingdom, which could play a defensive role and regard it as the land of Chen Bing. .
But in fact, the Emperor Donglai didn't do that in the near future. His approach was particularly strange, which made people feel incredible.
Instead of sending soldiers, they gathered the 100,000 army back, and then sent a prince who had the least deal with him in the dynasty. Everyone knows that he is a guy who is rebellious in the back of his head and will rebel one day. , But it was this man who led ten thousand soldiers and horses and was placed in this heroic city.
Let the Eastern Jin Kingdom appear as a "country on the border", the power became stronger, but he did not listen to the orders of the Eastern Jin country at all, and even all the taxes collected had to be used by himself. What's more, he still negotiated from the Eastern Jin country every three to five. The military pay of 10,000 people.
But the Emperor Bu Ridonglai really gave it!
Even more than a decade ago, when the Great Emperor from the East died or disappeared, and was involved in the war between Northern Xinjiang and the Great Jade Kingdom, the country was temporarily abandoned and eventually caused small-scale civil strife and internal friction... The city did not send any dispatches. Any soldier and horse, but in the process, gathered many people of insight who did not want to participate in the war, and became a pure land of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Since it is a pure land, it is strong and inevitable.
When Lu Yu followed the chief of the Eagle clan to stand in front of this majestic city for the first time, he was even a little stupefied, thinking that he was back in the capital of the Great Jade Kingdom and... even more prosperous!
Yes, it is prosperous.
There is an endless stream of people coming and going, all kinds of merchants, and even fragrant chariots and angry horses. The daily throughput of a huge city gate is definitely not less than a million. This... was originally a miraculous thing. After all... In the vast majority of cities and towns on the mainland, there are no more than one million residents.
If it reaches a million, it must be a famous city in the world!
And here, just in and out, there are no more than one million in a day, how spectacular? !
To put it simply, the defenders at the gate of the city are only responsible for registering everyone who enters the city and conducting the simplest inspection, that is, they cannot carry a large number of weapons in and out. They are not allowed to carry, but are not allowed to "a large number of weapons." 'The belt... The number of these pawns alone is more than five thousand!
The vastness is like an army.
"How's that? You were taken aback?"
The chief eagle smiled and said with a look of admiration: "When I first came to this city, I was really frightened. I even gave birth to quickly take off my chief's hat, honestly. I was confused with the Great Jade Kingdom or the Eastern Jin Kingdom. It took a long time to learn that such a majestic city... I am afraid that there is only one such city in the entire continent, so I can barely feel relieved..."
He sighed and continued: "This place belongs to the Eastern Jin Dynasty on the surface, but in fact it is independent... One city and one country, what a damn domineering! So many powerful people have come here to live for so many years. , Even I’m thinking that one day I will let go of my burdens and find a successor from my sons, and I will come to this city myself to take care of my old age... how great."
He sighed again, and then smiled bitterly: "Don't mention those... But if the Eastern Jin Kingdom chose to meet in this city, to be honest, not only me, even the sick cat... Hey, I'm afraid I would not dare to come to this tiger and wolf land. Looking for the skin with the tiger. What is the Eastern Jin Kingdom? That is where the Great Emperor from the East came soon! Tsk, that guy... Tsk, I dare not mention it."
Some words revealed a lot of information.
But Lu Yu didn't listen carefully, instead focusing on two things at the gate of the city.
The first one is above the gate of this city. I don’t know who wrote it. It is extremely powerful and huge... "Unparalleled City"!
The second is a large pillar standing at the gate of the city, with a row of words written on it.
"Those who pass this door have no debts."
Lu Yu frowned and asked, "What does this mean?"
The chief of the Eagle clan ordered someone to come forward to greet him. Hearing Lu Yu's question at this time, he followed the direction and laughed.
"It means literally, this Wushuang City... Tsk tsk, anyone who enters this city gate is a person from Wushuang City, and when he leaves the city, he is not a person from Wushuang City. But the people from Wushuang City and all the people outside Things have nothing to do with things. For example, if you kill someone, you will be innocent if you run into it. For example, if you owe money, you will have no debt if you run into it. Whether it is a debt of favor or a debt of life, once it has passed, it will be cleared. Continue to pursue... Hehe, I can only wait for that person to come out of Wushuang City, or else... Hehe."
The chief of the Eagle clan smiled and pointed to the stone with words written on it at the gate of the city, and said, "Did you see that stone?"
Lu Yu said, "Cut, am I just asking you about the stone?"
"Uh... don't care about this. I just want to tell you that this stone... was originally a mountain! I don't know what method the Wushuang City Lord has used, it becomes the size of the stone now... Hey, if you don't want to lose one In the end of the corpse, who would dare to make trouble with Wushuang City here? Wushuang City Wushuang City... Not so much that people are afraid of the majestic Wushuang City, it is better to say... People are afraid of Wushuang City Lord."
"You dignified warchief, are you afraid too?"
"Fear! Of course I am afraid, how can I not be afraid? I don't want to be crushed to the size of a millet grain... That would be too miserable, hahahaha!"
The Eagle Chief laughed heartily. He was afraid of the opponent's strength, but he was not as scared as he said.
Lu Yu knows... what the Eagle Clan chief knows.
People who speak the rules are respectable and fearful, but they really don't need to be afraid. What needs to be afraid is always just my own heart who doesn't want to behave.
This time the Eagle chief came, and he didn't actually bring too many goods. The Tiger chief was locked up by him. Naturally, he would not be brought with him this time, but Lu Yu's men... he couldn't arrange them casually, otherwise he would. Make Lu Yu suspicious. The so-called king's talent naturally refuses to do things under melon fields and plums.
Holding shoes beside the melon field will be mistaken for stealing melons. Picking off the hat from the plum tree will be mistaken for stealing the fruit. If you want others not to misunderstand, you can only do less of these misunderstandings. It's easier said than done, but it's particularly difficult to do.
For example... The chief of the Eagle clan had to bring all of Lu Yu's men, but he was afraid that Lu Yu would do anything evil against him, so he had to bring enough manpower. But if I bring too much, I am afraid that Lu Yu suspects that he is defending him... How much is good? Is this a worrying thing
And what made him feel a little helpless... is bringing so many soldiers and horses, a whole thousand people, to the people's city... How can he not misunderstand his Wushuang City Lord
Sorrowful... The eagle chief's faces are all drawn together.
