After passing through the wasteland between the Central Empire and the four countries, they saw the towering walls of the Central Empire. Unlike the city walls of the four countries, the city walls of the Central Empire were all made of stones, about two meters high, and looked very imposing. The city walls alone show the demeanor of a big country.
Just when everyone was overwhelmed by the aura of the Central Empire, Lin Chujiu said: "With such a high city wall, how can soldiers fight while standing inside the city wall?"
The people of the Central Empire were just like ordinary people. They were not two-meter-tall men with three heads and six arms. How can they fight against such a high wall?
Lin Chujiu's words were like a basin of cold water, instantly cooling down the accompanying guards. There were some things Lin Chujiu didn't know, but they, the soldiers, knew very well.
Xiao Tianyao's facial expression didn't change from the beginning to the end. Hearing Lin Chujiu's words, he said indifferently: "Outside this city wall of the Central Empire, there are only the four countries. This city wall is not for war."
The purpose of this city wall was to deter. Deter people from the four countries including their eastern country, so that they dare not have the ambition to covet the empire.
"So that's the case. That's why I was thinking why the Central Empire wasted manpower and material resources to build such a high city wall. It's for the sake of looking good." Lin Chujiu deliberately put on a look of sudden realization.
Hearing this, the young prince of the Central Empire showed contempt on his face: "Do you think that the Central Empire is like a small country like the East, who loves to pursue flashy things? The Central Empire never wastes a penny, and everything it builds has a reason. The city wall is built high, but it is not impractical. There are small gates everywhere on the city wall. Once a battle starts, these small gates will be opened. Whether throwing stones or dumping fire oil, it is very convenient."
"There are small gates on the city wall? I can't see it at all." Lin Chujiu stepped forward, stood on the city wall, and watched carefully.
Although she doesn't know whether Xiao Tianyao will lead his troops to the Central Empire, but… There was nothing wrong with looking more.
The central empire was much stronger than the four countries, and the central empire knew the four countries well, but the four countries didn't know anything about the central empire. If possible, they must collect more information about the Central Empire this time for other uses.
"Hmph, how can the craftsmen of the Central Empire be compared with those of a small country like yours." The young prince said proudly, Lin Chujiu gave a few compliments at the right time, and then asked about the small gate on the city wall.
The young prince ate bitterness in the east and was so oppressed by Xiao Tianyao that he didn't dare to breathe. Now seeing Lin Chujiu fawning him while asking, he thought how beautiful he was.
In addition, what Lin Chujiu asked was known to everyone in the Central Empire. The young prince did not hide it and told Lin Chujiu everything he could say.
The members of the Imperial Envoy did not stop them when they saw this. After the people from the four countries entered the Central Empire, very few were able to leave. Others might still be able to leave, but Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu couldn't leave the Central Empire. Knowing these things were useless, they couldn't take it out.
One wanted to ask questions, while the other one wanted to show off. After entering the Central Empire's territory, Lin Chujiu got along very happily with the young prince of the Central Empire. The young prince was also more cheerful than before.
Xiao Tianyao listened quietly from the side, neither stopping nor asking questions as if he was not interested in the conversation between Lin Chujiu and the young prince.
After entering the city, after layers of inspections, the Central Empire issued temporary identity certificates to Xiao Tianyao and his party. Aside from proving their identities, it was also convenient for them to travel in the empire.
The Central Empire had very strict control over outsiders, and those who could not prove their identity could only die if they were found in the Central Empire, no matter what the identity of the other party was.
"In the Central Empire, people without status have no way of life. You can take it." The young prince said with a reserved face. Perhaps because he was still young, the young prince didn't have the majesty of a superior at this time, and only young people's pride insisted on it.
Lin Chujiu laughed in her heart, but said sincerely on her face: "Thank you for reminding me, I will take good care of it." contemporary romance
Fourteen to fifteen years of age was the time when young men's self-esteem was strong. At this time, it would be best not to touch their bottom line, otherwise, if they get pissed off, it will be troublesome.
Sure enough, the young prince was very satisfied with Lin Chujiu's attitude and nodded his head reservedly to show his appreciation. As for Xiao Tianyao?
Perhaps it was Xiao Tianyao's attitude towards the young prince in the east, or Xiao Tianyao's ruthless handling of Stone Town, which left a strong shadow on the young prince's heart. Even though he was in the Central Empire's territory, the young prince still didn't dare to tease Xiao Tianyao for fear of bumping into the iron plate.
After entering the customs, they walked for another two hours before arriving at the Imperial Post Station. The station seemed to have received the news long ago, and everything was arranged properly, just waiting for their arrival.
When they arrived at the station, the young prince began to show off again: "In the Central Empire, as long as someone travels at normal time, they can rest at post stations along the way. As long as you enter the customs, or arrive at one of the post stations, the next post station will receive your message and arrange everything in advance. You don't need to worry about sleeping in the wild."
The young prince has repeatedly emphasized that they don't need to sleep in the wild, which shows how deeply he resented sleeping in the wild before.
As the young prince of the Central Empire, before traveling with Xiao Tianyao, he had never slept in the wild. Even if he traveled thousands of miles from the Central Empire to the east, he was taken care of properly along the way.
Xiao Tianyao was the first person who dared to let him sleep in the wild. without question, he would remember it for a lifetime.
That night, their group checked in at the post station. Who knows if the young prince was showing off or what, the station was well arranged. It was really like what the young prince said. They don't have to worry about anything when they arrive at the post station. They just need to do their own thing.
Of course, nothing was absolute. The post station was indeed well-organized and thoughtful, and safety issues were also taken into consideration, but… …
That night, the young prince and his party were assassinated!
Assassins not only exist in the East but also in the Central Empire. Compared with the East, the Central Empire's assassins were of a higher level and more lethal.
The post stations do have position guards, but with so many post stations in the empire, how strong the security of each post station is?
Furthermore, the assassins went directly to the post station, naturally, they knew the situation of the post station in advance. Their strength was far higher than the guards in the post station, and even far above the Martial God accompanying the young prince.
Among the assassins, there were five martial gods. The martial god who followed the young prince to the east was killed on the spot by the joint sniping of the five martial gods. With the joint efforts of the five martial gods, the guards of the post station became vulnerable and were destroyed in the blink of an eye.
Among all the people present, Xiao Tianyao was the only one who still had the power to fight. Xiao Tianyao's strength was believed can deal against three. Now facing five martial gods, does he still have a chance of winning?
Even if he can still fight five against one, what about the other assassins? Can he deal with all of them?
