A moment later, on the cover of this golden book of magic tricks, a huge golden eye slowly emerged, bewitching and ghostly.

At the same time, when the eye of magic came out, the eyes of Sima Annan and the others lit up, and the excited voice rang out:

"If this book of magical machines can be opened, it means that my Great Xia has really opened a crucial back door in the largest intelligence network in the Land of Taixuan!

"Interesting, really interesting!"

Chapter 1832

The core of Taixuan Central Plains, the eastern part of Central Shangguo.

When it was daylight, the entire land in the east of the Central Upper Kingdom, on the wide roads that criss-crossed each other, lit up countless bright and different bright stone lights.

Behind the radiance of these bright stones is a citizen of Shangguo whose family migrated to the eastern part of Shangguo.

Most of these people came from the vicinity of Tangdu in the central part. Under the threat of war, more and more people from the central part of the Central Kingdom fled recently.

And if you take a bird's-eye view of the entire land of Taixuan from the sky, you will find that there is only one place where the torrent of life that winds like a long dragon finally converges.

Shangxiao City!

Although Shangxiao City had just encountered an extremely tragic and thrilling rebellion a few days ago, it did not affect at all the increasing number of people from Shang Kingdom, who came pouring in like a tide.

Strictly speaking, the word Shangxiao has never referred to a huge city with a large area. Radiation range of the city.

Surrounding the great city of Shangxiao, there are nearly a hundred satellite cities, large and small, like loyal soldiers, guarding this splendid jewel of Shangxiao City.

The great sun rises from the east, and the eastern region of the Central Upper Kingdom today has a rare good weather. The dense clouds that have shrouded the sky for several days suddenly dissipate in the early morning, and then the sun shines down, and the universe is bright and bright.

The bright sun shines on everything on the earth, and it also makes the people of Shang Kingdom in the city who are under the threat of war show long-lost smiles on their faces, look up at the sky, and speak loudly to the people beside them: :

"Have you heard, our Central Shang Kingdom has achieved another great victory since defeating the Holy Court's plot to acquire Shangxiao City last time!"

After this excited and excited voice came out, a young monk who was waiting to line up to enter the city also showed a strong interest on his face. He raised his hands and clapped heavily, and the response sounded:

"This great victory has been spread throughout the Central Plains yesterday, how could I not know, boy."

Speaking of this, the smile on the young monk's face became wider and wider, and he continued to speak:

"Who would have thought that His Highness the Third Prince, who was criticized by all the monks because he only knew how to read books and hang out with scholars and literati in Tangdu before, would be able to directly make a blockbuster, shocking the whole world.

"You have to know that he is the top power among the ten philosophers of the Holy Court Martial Palace. At this time, one of them was directly beheaded, which made the Holy Court hurt, and at the same time, it improved the aura of the entire Shang Kingdom, which is immeasurable."

"Who says it's not? The war between our Shang Kingdom and the Holy Court has been protracted. Although we don't say it on the surface, it has shown signs of decline in recent days. Fortunately, His Highness the Third Highness turned out to be born with the help of the ninth Zhe Botai of the Martial Palace. Head, announce your strong return, how exciting it is!"

At this time, it was an old man who was not young, his cheeks were flushed, and when he talked about the third prince Yin Wen, who was once known to the world, his excited expression was not much better than that of the young people at the side.

Then the old monk put away the smile on his face slightly, and sighed:

"Our majesty spent his whole life as a soldier, found the orthodoxy of the Immortal Palace at a young age, established the central kingdom, and spent his whole life rooting and growing the kingdom in this perilous Taixuan Central Plains, becoming the most important of the four great kingdoms, What a majestic strategy this is.

"Originally, all the people in the upper kingdom were discussing that the emperors of His Majesty had perverted temperaments and seldom had the appearance of dominating the world.

"And when the news of these emperors and sons being captured in the northern border came, everyone was filled with righteous indignation and sighed. They only hated that there were no successors in our central kingdom. We didn't expect that we were blind in the end."

After the words fell, the old monk thought for a moment, and the old voice continued to sound:

"It is said that His Highness the Third Highness not only beheaded the Ninth Sage of the Holy Court Martial Palace in Wushanhai, but even killed quite a few monks from Tiance Palace.

"You should know that although Tian Ce Palace is not as powerful as Wu Palace, all of them have extraordinary cultivation levels, and this even includes the powerhouses of the Land Gods and Immortals.

"This battle in the misty mountains and seas is enough to make the holy court hurt and feel extremely painful. This is a well-deserved victory."

In fact, it is no wonder that the surrounding people of the Central Kingdom are so excited. It is true that this country, which is in a life-and-death struggle with the Holy Court, needs such a great victory to revive morale.

On the other hand, the Central Kingdom needs a rising emperor to lead the country forward and enter a new era. After all, in many cases, the role of faith is infinite.

"Old man, boy, I also heard that the Second Highness of Shang Kingdom, together with the Third Highness, participated in Wu Shanhai's ambush and murder. From this point of view, that Martial Emperor is not foolhardy."

It was a young man in the back who spoke, his face was as pale as if he hadn't seen the sun for a long time, then the old man who started talking turned around, and the voice sounded:

"These emperors and sons are ultimately the blood of the Shang Kingdom's Yin family. Although the dragon has nine sons, each of them is different, but their talents are there. When the Shang Kingdom is in danger, they are not allowed to go on like this."

Speaking of this, the old man's face became solemn, and after moving his lips, he still opened his mouth and said:

"It's just a pity for the Eighth Highness."

As soon as the eighth highness said these three words, the expressions of the people around him suddenly became very complicated. They all sighed and walked away one after another.

Then two people who did not know each other before were left behind, carrying bulging bags, bathed in the bright sunshine, looking up at the big characters on the city gate above their heads, all fell into a trap. In a little silence.

At the same time, on the city in front of the two of them, there are two large characters written with iron and silver hooks, Shang Ling.

Although the word Lingxiao is often used as one, there is a huge difference between the Shangling City in front of you and the Shangxiao City not far away. This Shangling City is just a satellite city of Shangxiao City. One of them is even quite inconspicuous.

However, in today's world, although Shangling City is only one of many satellite cities, it is still extremely difficult to enter the city. At this time, the old and young people waiting outside Shangling City have been waiting for a long time. .

Fortunately, with the opening of the city gate, the long line of queues to enter the city began to move forward again. According to the speed at this time, around noon today, the two of them can really enter the city and have a delicious hot meal.

"Boy, I just want to find a place to eat and have a good night's sleep. I'm really exhausted all the way east."

After the young man's voice came down with a bit of bitterness, the old man on the side laughed lightly, and just about to say something too tender, he turned his head suddenly and looked to the side.

I saw a commotion erupted suddenly at the somewhat noisy city gate, and then a group of men in black, riding magical beasts, crossed the crowd at the city gate mightily, under the scolding sound of rolling away one after another, without a trace He rushed into the gate of Shangling City to prevent him.

In the next breath, a large number of dissatisfied voices rang out from outside the city:

"It's really deceiving Taishe. Why do we have to wait outside the city for so long, and these outsiders can directly enter the city?"

Chapter 1833 One Old One Young

The reason why the eastern part of the Central Shang Kingdom headed by Shangxiao City is the core and the most prosperous area of ​​the entire Taixuan Central Plains is that in addition to the vigorous support and development of the entire Shang Guohua, it also has a unique advantage.

That is extremely convenient transportation!

To the east of Shangxiao City, flows the largest river in the core of the Central Plains. At the same time, there is a huge lake in the middle of the river. On the lake, countless ships sail and gallop, continuously transporting a large amount of goods and goods.

In other words, the Eastern Shangxiao City and its surrounding areas are the core of the Central Plains and the intersection of land, sea and air transportation.

In fact, a few years ago, before the war between the Central Kingdom and the Holy Court, there was a saying in Shangxiao and the surrounding cities:

"When the caravan comes, the sky is covered by giant birds, and the light is hidden all day long."

Although there are elements of exaggeration in this statement, it fully reveals the scene of countless flying races flying back and forth in the area of ​​Shangxiao City.

In order to maintain the prosperous status of Shangxiao City, the imperial court of the Central Shang Kingdom once ordered that this city is the only big city in the entire Shang Kingdom that does not have a curfew. The city wall landed directly on the inner city square.

As the saying goes, everything has its pros and cons, the move of the central government ensured the incomparable prosperity of Shangxiao City, but it also caused the chaos of fish and dragons in this big city, which laid the groundwork for the rebellion a few days ago.

However, the decision-makers of the Central Kingdom are not fools. After the war with the Holy Court a few years ago, all the cities in the Shangxiao City area were completely forbidden to fly. All flying races must land outside the city and can only enter through the city gate. .

This is also the reason why there are densely packed long dragons outside every city around Shangxiao City.

But now there are too many creatures coming from all directions, even though the gates of the city are always open to absorb people from outside the city, the crowd is getting more and more.

And some people have even waited outside the city for several days, and now they see someone riding a horse into the city majesticly, as if entering the land of no one, they will naturally feel dissatisfied and open their mouths to curse:

"Shangguo has the rules of Shangguo. If it's not about war, everyone has to line up to enter the city honestly. These people are really brave."

With a little angry scolding sound, it came from the young man outside the city, and then the indignant young man at the gate of the city, just about to continue to swear, was grabbed by the old man at the side, and the old voice sounded:

"Little brother, don't say a few words, this group of people is unusual, so as not to cause trouble."

After finishing speaking, the old man's eyes showed a thoughtful look, and he continued to speak:

"The alien beasts that these people rode just now are rare beasts from the north, and ordinary forces can't get them at all, and little brother, have you noticed the robes on them?"

"It's just a black robe, and it doesn't have any power emblems. It's sneaky."

As soon as the young man's response fell, the old man on the side shook his head and responded:

"Although there are no emblems on the black robes of these people, the patterns on the fabric are also very extraordinary. It is estimated that they are the young masters of a certain powerful family, and the sect has an unusual relationship with the garrison of Shangling City, so they can Open the door of convenience, regardless of the eyes of outsiders, and enter the city arrogantly."

"In today's chaotic world, there will always be some people who have not restrained their domineering nature, and sooner or later something big will happen."

After the young man finished speaking, he spat fiercely in front of him again, and the dissatisfaction on his face became more intense, but he finally gave up, lined up obediently, followed the crowd, and gradually walked towards the city gate.

Along the way, the old and the young exchanged with each other again, and it can be said that they had a very happy conversation. Although the speed of the team entering the city was not too fast, the time between the exchanges did not feel slow.

Unknowingly, the big sun hung high above the head, and then under the increasingly dazzling sunlight, the young and old duo officially came to the gate of the city, and then the sergeant of the Shangling City Garrison stationed at the gate of the city stepped forward to check.

The content of the investigation by the garrison of Shangling City was quite detailed, and the two answered one by one. After the garrison waved their hands to let them go, they walked through the long gate step by step and stepped into Shangling City.

"Has the old man been to Shangling City before?"

At the exit of the inner city gate of Shangling City, the young man raised his hand to support the cloth bag on his back, looking at the busy street ahead that was crowded with countless people, there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Next to the young man's ear, the old man's response sounded:

"This old man has never been to Shangling City, but I have been to Shangxiao, the main city not far away, many times."

After the words fell, the old monk raised his hand and stroked the white beard on his chest, and continued to speak with a smile:

"If little brother thinks that Shangling City in front of us is already extremely prosperous, then this old man can tell you that Shangxiao City, the oriental gem of the Central Shang Kingdom, is a hundred times as busy as this city!"

"If there is a chance, I really want to see it."

After the pale-skinned young man finished speaking, he turned around, saluted the old man beside him, and continued:

"It is really a kind of fate to meet the old man when we enter the city. If we can meet again in the future, we must have a good chat."

"The old man hit it off right away when he saw the little brother. Shangling City is not too big. Although the population has soared due to the turmoil at this time, the old man still hopes to meet the little brother again."

After finishing speaking, the old monk also returned the salute, and then the young man in front of him stood up, and the voice continued:

"That boy, I wish the old monk all the best."

"The old man also hopes that the little brother can eat well and sleep well."

"Then I will borrow the old gentleman's good words!"

A smile appeared on the young man's handsome and pale face, he didn't hesitate anymore, and then turned and walked to the street on the left, while the old monk stood there for a few breaths, then turned to the right.

Young people go left, old people go right.

Foreshadowing the trajectory of this old one less than Shanglingcheng, divergences began to appear at this moment.

Half a quarter of an hour later, around the old man walking slowly on the street on the right side of Shangling City, several figures in black robes appeared unknowingly.

Then the black-robed figure raised his hand towards an alley, and the old man turned around and walked slowly into it. With the next breath, the environment around him suddenly began to change drastically.

"Subordinates see the old man!"

A respectful voice sounded in the ears of the old man, and then the old man waved his hand, his complexion immediately became extremely sharp, his eyes were full of majesty, and the old voice came out directly:

"Is that person still locked?"

"Of course it's closed. He has a very hard mouth and didn't pry out too much information, so the old man needs to be interrogated."

"Don't worry about this matter, now you call the group of people who rode their horses into Shangling City to the old man!"

1834. Chapter [-]

As one of the satellite cities of Shangxiao, Shangling City in the eastern part of the Central Shangguo, the road planning is not very good, so the road conditions are complicated, with various alleys criss-crossing, interspersed in densely packed buildings.

How many alleys are there in Shangling City? I am afraid that the local residents who have lived here all their lives can’t tell why. What’s even more strange is that some alleys look like dark cave entrances from the outside. Bottom, daunting.

In the east of Shangling City, in the depths of an alley, the old man in ordinary plain clothes and carrying a bag on his back, surrounded by several figures in black robes, stepped on the rough stone floor and continued to move forward. .

The old man at this time, compared with the kindness at the gate of the city before, is like a completely different person. His eyes are sharp and his aura is thick. dare not come out.

"Tattoo."

The light sound made by the old man stepping on the ground, to the ears of the people behind, was like a heavy hammer directly hitting the soul, which made the pressure on their bodies more and more serious, and some of them had low cultivation bases. Or, there was a slight shaking, and his eyes blurred.

"too weak."

In the next breath, the old man's old and domineering voice came directly, and then he kept walking, and continued to speak:

"This place is the core of Taixuan Central Plains, it can be said to be the center of the whole world, you should know how many high-level monks are hidden among the bustling crowds around.

"And you are so weak, how can you make a difference?"

After the old man's words fell, the face of the leader of the few people behind changed drastically. Regardless of his pale face, he quickly opened his mouth to apologize:

"Forgive me, Mr. Ge. This subordinate deserves to die. The growth of cultivation has been slow over the years, and I have fallen into a bottleneck."

"I think you are lost in the world of flowers and flowers around Shangxiao City. Back then, you were one of the most talented souls in this generation. It is precisely because of this that the old man sent you to Central Shangguo.

"But after so many years, your cultivation base has made no progress, which really disappoints the old man!"

"Yes, yes, the elder Ge taught me that."
