"Your Highness, ahead is Quancheng."

"Are we really going in?"

Stopping to make a city exuding some ancient and desolate atmosphere, it suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Zheng and others.

However, at this time, Hao Wang, Gong Tan and others did not have much excitement on their faces, but instead were worried.

They all knew the warning of the man in black, but Zhou Zheng insisted on entering.

Although Zhou Zheng's skills along the way were quite good, and even Gong Tan admired them, the situation was different at this time. The dangers hidden in this spring city were far from comparable to other cities.

Even though Gong Tan has been in the imperial capital, he still knows a thing or two about Quancheng.

This city is located in the northern section of the Great Zhou Dynasty, not far from the Great Yuan and Great Xia Kingdoms, showing a certain triangular trend.

In addition, there are deep mountains and old forests surrounding it for hundreds of miles, and the nearest cities are also two hundred miles away, so everyone in Quancheng seems to be wary.

But for such a city, the surrounding terrain is quite flat and prone to attack.

During the war years, the imperial court's control over Quancheng was extremely low. In recent years, because the Great Xia Kingdom was ready to invade and the Yuan Dynasty was also eyeing it, the imperial court concentrated its main forces on the northern border to resist invasion.

There are almost no extra troops to guard Quancheng.

Therefore, thieves are rampant, caravans are restless, and even some extremely vicious people are intruding.

Although the entire Quan City is not a purgatory, the chaos within it is beyond imagination.

Even though Quancheng was still nominally under the control of the imperial court at this time, the actual control power of the imperial court was not strong.

In Quancheng, the forces are intertwined, the people are fierce, and the practice of martial arts is prevalent.

Therefore, even the guards in Quan City in the past dynasties had to follow a lot of rules when they came here and did not dare to act recklessly.

"Now that we are all tired from the journey, do you think we can survive the detour of hundreds of miles?"

Zhou Zheng looked up at the city wall not far away, and the corners of his mouth were a little dry.

In order to make it easier for everyone to travel, Zhou Zheng had given up the carriage and rode horses with everyone.

Despite this, after days of running around and supplies getting less and less, the mood of the people behind him was also a lot lower. Zhou Zheng could feel that everyone was working hard, as if they were at the end of a powerful crossbow, and they obviously couldn't hold it anymore.

Therefore, Zhou Zheng had no choice but to enter Quancheng.

Zhou Zheng's words made everyone fall into deep thought.

If you don’t go in, your body won’t allow it.

Go in, there are dangers everywhere!

Obviously, this is a tough call.

"Let's go, everyone, be careful to hide your identity. Just keep a low profile, get the supplies, fix it up, and then we'll leave."

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Zheng rode forward, and the others could only follow after seeing this.

The closer we got to the city wall, the more solemn the chilling feeling of the wind became. The simple atmosphere exuding from the city wall made everyone feel a sense of solemnity.

The city wall is seven or eight feet long and looks magnificent.

However, there are more potholes on the city wall, which are obviously traces left after many battles.

Above the city gate are the two characters "Quancheng" in capital letters. However, due to the washing of time, these two characters have become somewhat mottled.

Only the city gate looked new, as if it had just been replaced not long ago.

Zhou Zheng brought Hao Wang, Qin Gou'er and Gong Tan in disguise, while the others dispersed.

Otherwise, if more than ten people enter Quan City at the same time, the target will be relatively large.

Fortunately, although there were guards at the gate of Quancheng, the interrogation was not too strict, and the group did not encounter any difficulties entering Quancheng.

As soon as they entered Quancheng, the hearts of Zhou Zheng and others accelerated.

Looking at the entire Quancheng from the outside, it gives people a lifeless feeling, but after actually entering Quancheng, it feels like being abroad.

In the streets and alleys, people of all kinds are constantly coming and going.

The faces of these people are quite different from those of the Zhou Dynasty. They are taller and have deeper eyes. Of course, the bulging muscles on their arms also make people feel a little fearful.

Strange costumes can be seen everywhere here.

Hao Wang, Gong Tan and Qin Gou'er all had their eyes straightened.

Walking on this noisy street, you feel like the prosperity of a foreign country.

Seeing that these three people looked like they had never seen the world, Zhou Zheng was also a little helpless.

However, when Zhou Zheng kept looking around at the people passing by with his peripheral vision, he also noticed some differences.

There seemed to be more Hu people here, and some of them were wearing the costumes of the Yuan and Daxia kingdoms.

"It is said that there is a foreign country in China, and Quancheng is unparalleled in the world."

"I have learned a lot today."

Gong Tan clicked her tongue in amazement. This was the first time she had seen such a thing, and her eyes were full of curiosity.

However, everyone in Quan City seems to be used to it. They are shouting and doing business on the street, and the sounds of quarrels and fights can be heard from time to time, making the hustle and bustle here even more prominent.

Gong Tan couldn't help but want to buy some of the various objects placed on the roadside.

Seeing this, Zhou Zheng also smiled slightly and took Gong Tan to pick out some powders and blushes that women liked.

As for Qin Gou'er and Hao Wang, they each bought their own swords.

"This Quan City seems not as dangerous as imagined."

Hao Wang sighed in his heart, but Zhou Zheng shook his head when he heard this. He didn't believe that such a remote place could really be so prosperous, and the current prosperity made Zhou Zheng always feel a little uneasy.

"Can others find us successfully?"

"Don't worry, sir, I've left a mark, they won't be left behind."

Hao Wang nodded, they would definitely not get rid of this special mark.

......

Quancheng General Mansion.

"General Huang, we have not found the whereabouts of the prince and his party!"

A soldier knelt in front of the middle-aged man sitting among the leaders and responded in a deep voice.

"But thirty miles away, we found an abandoned carriage!"

Upon hearing the pawn's report, General Huang's pupils suddenly shrank!

"Yes, it's them!"

His palms suddenly lined up on the chair, and a sense of excitement finally flashed across General Huang's face.

He has been waiting in Quancheng for a long time, but unfortunately he has never found the whereabouts of Zhou Zheng and others. Now he finally saw a trace.

"With a radius of a hundred miles, there is no other place to stay except Quancheng."

"They abandoned the carriage, and the most likely possibility is to enter Quan City on foot or on horseback!"

"This general, I want to see where they can escape!"

As soon as the words were heard, General Huang ordered people to close the city gate!

As long as we are within Quancheng, everything will be easy.

"General, do you really want to take action here?!"

One of the generals frowned slightly, still a little hesitant in his heart.

"Wealth is gained through danger. Do you really want to stay in a place like Quancheng forever!?"

"As long as we kill the prince, we will be the real heroes, and our future success will be just around the corner!"

General Huang's eyes showed a fierce look, and a touch of greed also appeared on his face.

"But the situation in Quan City is unstable today."

"With the influx of a large number of strangers, it is difficult for me, Quan City, to defend this city with our current strength."

"Where can we find the manpower to find the prince and the others?"

Pian Jiang lowered his head. He didn't want to leave Quancheng, but the current situation didn't seem to allow it.
