Another Life: Elf Archer

Mingtang, Bagua City, in an inn near Tongtian Tower.

Sanchi Shui was rummaging through the melon seeds and peanuts on the table boredly. He didn't like eating them very much. Now that he was bored, he peeled some melon seeds and peanut kernels and gradually piled them into a small mountain bag.

There was a "squeak" sound from the door, and Sui and Zangjiu stepped in from the door one after another. Zangjiu walked around to Sanchishui, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and peanuts and held them in his hand. He found a chair to sit down on and put some in his mouth. A few melon seeds were thrown in.

Sanchi Shui gave Zang Jiu a white look, looked at Shi Sui, and then at Zang Jiu.

"Didn't you two say something happened on the street? Something happened?"

Just now, the three of them were in the guest room upstairs discussing the next arrangements for the year when they suddenly heard a loud noise outside the window. Upon closer inspection, they discovered that it was real guards who were unheard of in Bagua City and were arresting people on the street. foreigners.

There are actually living humanoid guard soldiers in Bagua City

The three people looked up at the Five Elements Island in unison. Could it be that the monitoring system of the Five Elements Island is undergoing maintenance today?

"No, they're from the government."

After all, they had dealt with Song Qing a lot. Shi Sui and Zang Jiu immediately discovered the identities of these guards from their clothes.

"There are actually people from the government in Bagua City."

After discovering the identities of these people, the three people in the room felt even more incredible.

The various sects of cultivation have always been in harmony with the imperial court. Even if cultivators can come and go freely in the major cities, they are still subject to the restrictions of the imperial court's laws when they are in the mortal world.

Similarly, the people of the imperial court and the common people who step on the territory of the cultivation sect are also restricted by the rules of the sect. The monitoring system of Five Elements Island treats everyone equally in this regard.

What's going on now? The government officials are brazenly arresting people in Bagua City.

Shisui and Zangjiu immediately decided to go out and have a look and inquire about the situation.

Now, when the two of them came back from inquiring about the news, one of them looked more solemn than the other. Even Zang Jiu just touched the peanuts mechanically and ate them, without even taking out his wine gourd to take a sip.

"It seems that the imperial court has appointed a new national adviser. The new official has set off three fires, and now he has set off two."

Tongtian Tower in Bagua City is closed, so the three people in this room have not heard the news about the appointment of the Imperial Master.

"The Imperial Master then burned something?"

Sanchishui urged Zangjiu to speak quickly and get to the point quickly.

"The foreign friends were burned first."

Zangjiu pointed toward the window, took out the wine gourd, took a sip, and said

"We saw two notices, one of which was called the Hu Restriction Order, which stated that from today on, all foreigners arriving in China must first register in Chang'an and obtain legal documents before they can leave Chang'an and enter and leave other cities. .”

"Didn't they register the entry registration form?"

Sanchishui's memory is pretty good, especially since he has seen these registration forms himself.

"Register when the government asks you to register. Even if you have written a hundred and eighty sheets, if they say it is invalid, then it will be invalid. You have room to reason."

Zang Jiu raised his eyebrows, feeling that the question of three feet of water was childish.

"It's unnecessary. What was the fuss going on outside when you were doing knitting?"

"Register," Zangjiu took another sip of wine, "Arrest the person and bring him back to Chang'an to register."

"It's crazy to arrest people and register them, isn't it so vigorous and resolute? Wasn't this ban on barbarism just issued today?"

"All local civil and military officials in charge are not allowed to cross-examine, impeach, and impeach them. They will all be dismissed from their posts and severely punished. If there are those who are in hiding, they will all be punished as collaborating with the enemy and treason."

Shisui sat aside and slowly repeated part of the content of the ban on Hu orders. He looked at Sanchishui and continued.

"If it were another town, maybe the local government wouldn't arrest people so efficiently and high-profile, but this is Bagua City. The crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason is not something that any cultivation sect wants to be implicated in."

"What is this?"

Although Sanchishui was not very interested in these twists and turns, as an intelligence officer of Tongtian Tower, he still had some accurate intuitions.Flashdance..

Just like now, his intuition told him that this incident revealed a very unpleasant fact

The harmonious and tense relationship between the imperial court and the cultivation forces is about to turn from undercurrent to overt.

"No." Sanchi Shui suddenly stood up and hit his arm on the edge of the table. The pile of melon seeds and peanuts on the table instantly fell to the floor.

"Every year she is also taken away."

After saying that, Sanchi Shui turned around and was about to rush out of the room. Zang Jiuyan quickly smashed a teacup at his side to slow down the man's momentum.

"Calm down, she's fine"

After quickly stopping the three feet of water, Zangjiu said helplessly, "She is the most troubled person in the whole Bagua City now."

She is both shopping and visiting the park. When she comes out from the park, she will find that the world is infinitely beautiful.

The fellows from Gaia who came to cause trouble for her were all arrested, and the Chinese locals who came to join in the fun were also attracted by the National Master's other tricks, and no one had the intention to deal with her anymore.

"As you just said, all the aliens have been captured."

Sanchi Shui pointed at Zang Jiu and said.

"When did I say that?" Zang Jiu recalled, "What I said is that all foreigners need to register and receive passes. First of all, they must be human beings."

"What do you mean Nian Nian is not a human being?"

Sanchi Shui became more and more impatient. He walked up to Zang Jiu and held down his hand holding the wine gourd.

"Don't drink yet and speak clearly."

Zangjiu didn't show off, and directly told Sanchishui about the results of his and Shisui's previous discussion.

"The reason for this ban on barbarians is that those foreigners come from the so-called Holy Church and believe in the Lord God. They are different from the beliefs we have here. The imperial court was afraid that they would spread heresy in China and issued it, so it can basically be said that it is just targeting them. For those human players, after all, as far as we know, the elves and dwarves believe in natural gods."

"and"

Zangjiu looked at Sui and found that he had no objection, so he continued.

"We judge that the court may regard the elves and dwarves as the same as the monsters here, and does not regard them as human beings, so this kind of decree will not take effect on them."

There are demon clans in China, and the imperial court directly handed over all matters related to the demon clan to various cultivation sects.

If it is handled well, it is the right thing to do. If it is not handled well, and something happens that brings harm to the people of a certain area, it is the responsibility of the local cultivation sect.

Therefore, if people are massacred around Bagua City every year, then Mingtang will deal with it. If Mingtang cannot handle it, the imperial court will deal with it.

But these two days are just causing trouble in Tongtian Tower every year. Even if one hundred and eighty players are killed, the court will not care about it, because this is an internal dispute between your cultivation forces or Jianghu forces.

Sanchishui immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, turned around and sat back in the chair, and grabbed Zangjiu's wine gourd.

"That's good. I can't fight anymore. This Imperial Master is really a good person."

"There may still be fights, but the scale will be smaller."

Zangjiu didn't wait for three feet to ask, and made an explanation for himself.

"Don't forget Song Qing. He seems to have always admired Helen. It shouldn't be a problem to open a fast lane for her and get a document."

San Chi Shui slapped the wine gourd on the table with a thud that made Zang Jiu feel distressed.

"Song Qing, you bastard, will assassinate the imperial official when I get back."

"Take me one"

Zangjiu also raised his hand in agreement, but as soon as he raised his hand, he turned to look at Sui

"Why is Songqing so quiet? Didn't he notify us in advance of these two restrictions today?"

Shi Sui shook his head and said to Sanchi Shui and the others.

"Don't pay too much attention to things here. After all, we have an appointment with Helen to talk about things in Tianhuo Tower. She will definitely find a way to come over. As for the result tomorrow, as long as there are no other people who are taking advantage of the situation, I believe that I will be able to do it every year. Take care of it.”

"The main problem we face now is sea restrictions."

"What is this sea restriction order?"

"Things that are not allowed to leave the sea and customs without official permission."

"Fuck our world mission"

Shi Sui raised his hand slightly and pressed it, signaling Sanchi Shui to calm down, and said in a calm tone.

"Official permission is not difficult for us, especially since we have completed the antlers bounty mission of the Nine-Colored Immortal Deer, helped the court advance the progress of the princess's marriage, and obtained the qualification to send the princess out of the customs as an accompanying caravan. It can be said that , as long as we send the bride back, our reputation in the court will definitely be enough to get this official permission."

"From this perspective, this sea restriction order is not only not a constraint for us in the world, but also a big step forward, which is a good thing."

Sanchi Shui looked at Shi Sui's expression and said uncertainly.

"If it's a good thing, why do you look a little worried?"

"It's the target of public criticism," Shi Sui said helplessly, "Everyone knows that our Xingtianxia has a good relationship with the imperial court. This sea restriction order has caused many individuals and small guilds to completely lose the opportunity to participate in world missions. Do you think these people will Target us and cause trouble for us.”

"There is also Tiangongfang. Mu Benzun seems to have made some progress in shipbuilding, but as soon as the sea restriction order came out, the time and resources he devoted became useless efforts with no reward. And we only need to obtain official permission. , you can directly intervene in the official shipyard, and you no longer need the help of Tiangongfang."

"Just such a sudden sea restriction order left Tiangongfang and other guilds behind. And those people standing behind us who were left behind due to bad luck will not resent the court, but They will only be angry with us."

"In Bagua City now, the most troublesome thing is Nian Nian, but the most troublesome people are us."
