Global Weird: I can simulate in advance

A conjurer's enslavement technique directly subdued this fierce horse.

Hmm...Actually, the original intention of this enslavement technique was to be used by a conjurer to conquer a chaste woman, forcibly turning that woman into a moron courting him.

If the conjurer who died 2000 years ago had a spirit in the sky, and knew that a younger generation used his masterpiece invention to enslave the horses, I don't know how he would feel.

But Li Guanqi was very happy anyway.

Since there were many wild radishes growing near the place where the demon blood horse was taken in, he also named the horse "radish" casually.

After riding the radish for half a day, Li Guanqi came to a nearby shogunate town, and changed the radish into a silver saddle.

and.

It was also in that small town that Li Guanqi found out about his goal.

warrior!

A suspected Sixiang-level warrior, and a warrior with a "sword".

The reason is that a month ago, a shogunate samurai who claimed to be surnamed Qingliu came to the town. He heard that the guard of the town went hunting in the nearby forest, but he didn't return for a long time, so he volunteered to search.

In the end, the guard was brought back by him, and the samurai surnamed Qingliu also left without asking for anything in return.

The focus is on what the guard said.

The three-level guard officer was captured by a four-elephant-level spider monster at that time, locked in a cave, imprisoned on the spider web, and waited to be eaten in a few days.

And the samurai surnamed Qingliu just came here and killed the four-elephant spider with one strike.

This is at least a Sixiang-level warrior, which meets Li Guanqi's requirements for asking swords.

And...well, the surname is Qingliu.

In this shogunate town, Li Guanqi has already found out who the "Sakura Nine Warriors" are.

Among them, Wang Xiu's lifelong enemy, the Takeda family of Takeda Xingsai, is impressively among them.

In addition, there is also a surname called Qingliu-the green willow of the wood.

In the Qingliu family, all the blood warriors of that family can transform into treants in the form of Liangyi, and the ability is also to control trees.

Of course, in the Sakura shogunate, there are people with the same surname, not to say that all the Sakura people with the surname Qingliu come from the Qingliu family, one of the Sakura Nine Warriors.

But, maybe, what if?

What if this samurai surnamed Qingliu came from that Qingliu family?

Then it perfectly fits Li Guanqi's object of questioning the sword.

So Li Guanqi walked all the way, inquired all the way, and finally learned that the green willow warrior went to a shogunate city called "Shimono".

However, the city name "Xiaye" is rarely used anymore, even the locals in Xiaye no longer call it that.

The city has another name.

honey city.

And Li Guanqi, after traveling all night, finally saw the economic giant of the cherry blossom shogunate... huh?

"Ok?"

"what's the situation?"

Li Guanqi rode a radish, and slowly came to a small hillside, looking at the city in the distance, a little dazed.

I heard that the honey trade in Shimono is very developed, so there is a well-known alias of "Shimono-Honey Castle", which even faintly replaces the official name of the shogunate.

Although the scale of Honey City itself is not large, and the owner of the city is only at the level of five elements, its economic strength is very strong, and the people are very rich.

But now in Li Guanqi's sight...

That city doesn't look like that.

At this time, it was mid-morning, but at the gate of the city, there was not even a caravan queuing up to enter the city... Ah no, there was no queuing at all, because there was no one there at all.

The city gate was wide open, but there were only two ashigaru from the shogunate, that is, one-level alien blood soldiers from the Sakura shogunate, standing guard with their heads bowed, and there was no one else.

According to the situation of the Sakura Shogunate, a large economic city like Micheng should be a "popular city", and there should be countless businessmen and people queuing up to enter and leave the city every day.

Well, there is a problem.

"drive!"

Li Guanqi rode his horse and swung his whip, and quickly rushed towards Micheng.

Soon, the distance of thirty miles was covered by radish, and Li Guanqi finally arrived outside the gate of Honey City.

There are only two shogunate ashigaru outside the city.

They are wearing pale yellow full-foot armor. I don't know if this light yellow color was specially chosen for the name of "Honey City".

"Stop coming, pay the city entry tax!"

The two shogunate ashigaru guarding the city were originally listless, but when they saw Li Guanqi's arrival, they immediately regained their energy, straightened their waists quickly, crossed their halberds, and blocked the gate of the city.

[One-level different blood warrior]

[One-level different blood warrior]

"City tax?"

Li Guanqi reined in his horse and looked at the two soldiers curiously, "But I heard that the Sakura Shogunate abolished the city entrance tax a long time ago. Why do you need to pay the city entrance tax when you go down? Is it a rumor?"

"Ok?"

Hearing this, the two shoguns turned their heads and looked at each other in surprise.

Only then did Li Guanqi realize his slip of the tongue.

Just as people in Daluo seldom call themselves the Daluo Dynasty, and usually call themselves Daluo, so are the people from Sakura.

Sakura people never call themselves the Sakura Shogunate, they either say "Sakura" or "Shogunate".

In oral communication, saying the four characters of Sakura Shogunate is equivalent to saying the long string of full names of countries in real countries. Although it is okay, it is very strange.

"Do not talk nonsense!"

One of the shogunate ashigaru looked at Li Guanqi again, and said in displeasure, "If you are told to pay taxes, then pay taxes. Why is there so much nonsense? If you don't pay, get out!"

"..."

Li Guanqi was at a loss for words for a while, he lowered his head and touched the carrot under his body, signaling to this three-talented demon-blooded horse to stay calm.

It seems that it was not a good idea to walk in the cherry blossom shogunate and use sealing techniques to cover up one's own cultivation.

Even though he didn't completely cover up his cultivation, but faintly exuded a one-yuan-level strange blood aura.

But obviously, the one-level "different blood warrior" can't gain the slightest respect in front of the soldiers defending the city of the Sakura Shogunate.

Moreover, these two big soldiers didn't have any eyesight.

A three-talent level monster was in front of them, if it didn't explode the coercion of a monster, would it really be an ordinary wild horse?

Don't blame them though.

After all, the biggest feature of the demon blood horse is that it looks like an ordinary horse.

"boom!"

Li Guanqi thought for a while, and completely dissipated his own Aperture Sealing Technique, which belonged to the spirit of the Sixiang-level martial artist, and exploded loudly.

"This?!"

"Um!

! ”

The faces of the two shogunate ashigaru suddenly turned pale.

Of course they didn't know that it was a four-element breath.

But there is no need to know so clearly.

They just need to know that the two of them are one-level alien blood warriors themselves, and this coercion can make them feel frightened, so the white-haired man in front of him is at least a two-level warrior!

A samurai at the Liangyi level is already considered a privileged class in the Sakura Shogunate.

At least as clearly stated in the "Sakura Law", no matter what the situation is, the city entry tax must be unconditionally exempted for the two-level samurai.

"Master Samurai!"

The two shogunate ashigaru quickly put away their halberds and bowed their heads to Li Guanqi, "Forgive us for failing to discover your cultivation, please don't blame us."

"Please come in!"

The two shogunate Ashgaru turned sideways to make way for the passage leading to the gate of the city.

After all, they are officers and soldiers of the shogunate, and they are on official food. It is the limit to bow their heads and admit their mistakes. As for kneeling and apologizing, it is a bit unrealistic.

"Why is there a city tax?"

Li Guanqi was not in a hurry to enter, but sat on the back of the radish and looked at them curiously, "Don't you have a reputation as a city of honey? Didn't you make a lot of money from the honey trade? Such a wealthy city , How can you collect city tax? It doesn’t match what I heard on the road.”

"Forehead……"

The two shogunate ashigaru glanced at each other, and then one of them bowed his head and said, "This is the new decree of the city lord, so it is inconvenient for us to say more."

Li Guanqi frowned slightly.

Although the Sakura Shogunate is basically a centralized system, in name it is jointly ruled by the "Emperor" and the "Shogun".

But it’s not really that “centralized”.

In fact, the various city lords of the Sakura Shogunate still have quite a lot of power in government affairs, and they can change and issue new laws and regulations in the cities under their jurisdiction within an appropriate range.

Of course, the shogunate will periodically send supervisory officials to investigate to see if they are messing around.

But... inspectors are human too.

If you are a person, you can buy it.

But there is no need to mention these messy dirty things.

Li Guanqi didn't embarrass the two big soldiers, but rode a turnip and walked slowly into the city.

But what he saw next made his heart heavy.

Xia Ye - Honey City.

The rich and well-known honey city.

Li Guanqi originally thought that when he came to this city, he would see pink cherry blossoms flying all over the sky, countless cherry blossom people living and working in peace and contentment, crowds of people, the streets were lively, all kinds of vendors roamed the streets, shouting and selling, thriving and extremely prosperous.

But no.

Absolutely not.

"call--"

The cold autumn wind is blowing, rolling up some withered cherry blossoms on the ground.

The many cherry blossom trees on both sides of the road, as well as in the entire city, seemed a little sluggish at this moment.

Li Guanqi rode a radish and walked slowly through the dirty streets with his horseshoes.

Looking around, this honey city is full of depression, there are very few cherry blossom people on the streets, and the few who appear are also yellow and emaciated, with ragged clothes.

The doors of the businesses on both sides of the street are all closed, let alone small vendors pushing carts and selling various honey products.

There is no prosperity.

Only depression.

"Carrot, slow down."

Li Guanqi didn't ride the horse anymore, but rolled over, led the horse, and walked in the streets and alleys of Mi City.

What he saw earlier was no exception.

Except for the neighborhood near the gate of the city, other parts of Honey City are equally depressed. There are very few pedestrians on the street, and most of the men are lying at home with nothing to do, and they look like they have no work at all.

but……

Li Guanqi stopped, took the turnip, and stood outside a remote alley.

In the depths of the alley, a few cherry blossom women who were dressed in coarse linen clothes and barely looked pretty, deliberately cut the hem of their skirts very short, so that they reached their thighs, and stood in front of their house.

Occasionally, when a man in a neat kimono comes, he will be recruited by them and enter the house.
