Chapter 234: Transaction, Entering the Inner City
Chapter 234: Transaction, Entering the Inner City
Fu Shaoping went all the way up to the seventh floor. After walking a few steps to the north, he saw a door plate marked with seven. After the token was activated, the door slowly opened. There was a table, a bed and two chairs in the room, which was extremely simple.
After closing the door.
Patriarch Fu waved his sleeves, and several formation flags fell down. Along with the pinching of magic spells, with a humming sound, a magic formation was completed.
The two descendants sat opposite each other.
Fu Shaoping said directly:
"Grandmaster, do you think that Prince Qin of Qinzhou really came here to compete for the centurion?"
As a candidate for the patriarch of a third-rank family, he should not set foot in a dangerous place like the City of Innocence.
The position of centurion is rare.
But it should not be a big deal for a third-rank family.
Elder Fu pondered for a while, as if he remembered something, raised his eyebrows, and then said:
"Maybe the other party is not drunk for the sake of wine."
"Ancestor, what do you say?"
"If I remember correctly, two hundred years ago, warriors from various states once gathered in Innocence City. A fierce and brutal battle broke out at that time. Later, it was said that the Lord of Innocence City stepped in and stopped the battle."
A big melee?
What for?
Fu Shaoping's heart moved:
"Grandmaster, are you saying that Prince Qin is probably here for the incident that happened two hundred years ago?"
"possible"
Patriarch Fu frowned slightly.
There was a hint of worry on his face:
"The chaos two hundred years ago was because of the appearance of the Heavenly Dao Jade fragment in the Innocence City. The warriors fought, but there was no news about who got the Heavenly Dao Jade fragment in the end. If Prince Qin really came for the Heavenly Dao Jade fragment this time, I'm afraid that the Innocence City will be in a bloody storm again."
"Ancestor, are you saying that the fragments of the Heavenly Dao Jade have reappeared in the City of Innocence?"
Fu Shaoping's heart beat faster.
The Xuanming Treasure Mirror needs to absorb the fragments of the Heavenly Dao Jade before it can light up other runes.
From a certain perspective.
The fragments of Heavenly Dao Jade are also extremely important to him.
Patriarch Fu shook his head and said:
"This is just my guess. However, your Zhenwu Division Intelligence Hall has not received any information, which means that this matter may not be true. After all, once the Heavenly Dao Jade appears in the world, the martial arts world will not be so peaceful."
"We will go into the city tomorrow and if the wind direction is wrong, we will retreat immediately."
Patriarch Fu obviously didn't want to get involved in this turmoil.
Even if they were lucky enough to obtain the fragments of the Heavenly Dao Jade, they would not be able to keep it with the current strength of their Fu family.
Fu Shaoping felt half disappointed and half relieved when he heard this.
After nightfall.
Three drum beats were heard in the inn.
The shopkeeper's excited voice echoed throughout the floor:
"Dear guests, it is getting late. Please go back to your rooms and rest. Remember, no matter what you hear or see at night, do not open the doors or windows. You will be responsible for the consequences if you do so."
Fu Shaoping opened his eyes, but saw a slight light above the door and window, and a rune flashed by.
The entire noisy inn suddenly became quiet.
At the beginning.
Everything seemed normal.
It was late at night.
Fu Shaoping was keenly aware that the surrounding environment suddenly became chilly and gloomy.
His consciousness swept away.
A look of shock flashed across his face.
But I found that the outside of the inn had been shrouded in thick fog without me noticing.
Followed by.
There was a chanting sound coming from the thick fog.
At first it was still in the sky, but the next moment it was like someone singing in your ear. The past events were vivid in his mind. He even saw his mother in his first life making his favorite pork belly and chicken in the kitchen. The rich aroma filled his nose. Fu Shaoping shuddered all over and quickly withdrew his consciousness and concentrated on meditating.
in this way.
A night of strange phenomena passed.
Early the next morning.
After the first ray of sunlight fell on the earth, the thick fog dissipated and all the strange visions disappeared.
Fu Shaoping and his grandson pushed the door open and walked out, and the inn returned to its daytime bustle.
When passing by the second floor.
In the gambling house, he saw Yu Baihu again.
Didn't have breakfast.
He checked out immediately.
When they left the inn, the two headed straight for the City of Innocence.
Fly halfway.
The sound of a flute was heard from behind.
Turn around and look.
It turned out to be a treasure ship with the flag of Qinzhou Qin family flying on it, and the sound of stringed instruments came from the ship.
See the treasure ship.
Fu Shaoping recalled the conversation he had with the ancestor last night.
The treasure ship is very fast.
But when it was above them, it suddenly stopped.
The light curtain of the formation on the ship dissipated.
Prince Qin, wearing a rabbit mask on his face, appeared at the bow and smiled at Fu Shaoping:
"Friend Fu, I heard that you and Qinglian County Master are from the same sect. What a coincidence, my sister is also from the same sect as Qinglian County Master. Would you like to come aboard and sit with her?"
Seemingly asking.
But his attitude is very tough.
Speak immediately.
The two old ladies who had reached the Great Perfection of Yuan Dan on his left and right sides flashed and appeared in front of Fu Shaoping, saying coldly:
"Mr. Fu, please!"
Look at this posture.
Obviously, whether I like it or not, I have to get on the boat.
Fu Shaoping frowned.
I don’t know what Prince Qin is up to.
He glanced toward the bow.
In addition to these two old women, there were four guards standing closely beside Prince Qin on the boat, but these four guards did not have any magical power fluctuations, and they had civet cat masks on their faces.
Fu Shaoping turned around and said to Patriarch Fu:
"Ancestor, you meet them outside."
Just in case.
Fu Shaoping flew on his sword and landed at the bow of the ship.
After standing still.
But I smelled the scent of jasmine on Prince Qin.
Prince Qin smiled and said:
"Friend Fu, once we enter the City of Innocence, I will capture the Thousand-Faced God for you. In exchange, how about you do me a small favor?"
really.
This Prince Qin did not come here to capture the Thousand-Faced God.
Fu Shaoping was excited, but he didn't show it on his face. He bowed and said:
"Thank you for your kindness, Prince Qin. However, I am limited in my ability and I am afraid that I can't help you much. I appreciate your kindness and I am really sorry."
"It doesn't matter. If you change your mind, come and find me again."
talking.
Prince Qin waved his sleeves, and a communication jade talisman floated towards Fu Shaoping.
Fu Shaoping's spiritual sense swept over the jade talisman, and seeing that there was nothing unusual about it, he took it immediately. However, he decided in his heart that he would definitely not interfere in the affairs of Prince Qin. He bowed, left the treasure ship, and returned to Patriarch Fu.
Patriarch Fu said worriedly:
"What did Prince Qin tell you?"
Fu Shaoping told the truth.
Patriarch Fu frowned and said hesitantly:
"Shao Ping, I'm afraid this city of innocence will not be peaceful, you see..."
This journey is too dangerous.
Old Master Fu was about to return home.
Fu Shaoping thought that since everyone was here, he should go in and take a look:
"Ancestor, let's go in and take a look first. If we find something wrong, we will retreat immediately."
"it is good"
This time they spent nearly 100,000 stones just for the teleportation.
If they didn't even enter the city gate, it would be unreasonable, and this also affected Fu Shaoping's future. The two of them walked at a moderate speed.
Two hours later.
On the top of a high mountain, a huge dragon head suddenly appeared. The dragon's eyes were bloodshot and blood was dripping to the ground, which looked weird.
This dragon head is the entrance to the City of Innocence.
Fu Shaoping stretched out his hands and clapped them. A flash of light appeared, and four thousand low-grade Yuan stones flew out one after another and fell into the groove on the side of the dragon head. There was a crackling sound, and the groove began to rotate.
Fu Shaoping and the other man retreated again and again.
"Roar!"
The dragon head's tightly closed mouth suddenly opened.
A vortex appeared.
Fu Shaoping and the other man swayed and entered the dragon head's vortex.
There was a sudden spin.
After a brief dizziness.
Bright eyes.
A towering city wall comes into view.
The city wall was thousands of feet high, piercing the sky. It was covered with dense and complex runes. The wall was winding and boundless, giving people a sense of simplicity and grandeur. Fu Shaoping was shocked:
"The walls of this sinless city are too high!"
This is also the first time that Patriarch Fu comes here.
There was also a look of surprise on the ever-changing face.
Murmured:
"It is said that the City of Innocence is the number one city in southern Tiannan. Now I see that it is indeed amazing."
The defensive formation of this city wall is the Daluo God-Destroying Formation. It is said that even a great cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage cannot do anything about it. Once trapped, it will be difficult to survive.
This is one of the reasons why both humans and demons can only stand by and watch even though they know that the City of Innocence contains countless criminals.
Standing under the city wall.
Fu Shaoping felt that he was just a drop in the ocean, very insignificant.
The north gate was wide open.
it's here.
There is no guard at the gate.
However, from time to time, there were scattered warriors entering the city gate.
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, then entered through the city gate one after another. After walking through the long corridor, the appearance of the city came into view.
But I saw that there were rolling mountains in the city.
at the foot of the mountain.
A huge city was built.
Those coming and going in the city are all mortals.
Simultaneously.
Among this mortal.
But they look different.
among them.
Half of the people coming and going have the appearance of demons.
But here.
The human race and the demon race are not mortal enemies. You can even see humans and demons walking side by side with their arms around each other, and they seem to have a very harmonious relationship.
Imagination.
The streets are full of villains.
The scene where humans and demons are irreconcilable does not exist.
Instead, it makes people feel like a paradise.
it's here.
You can feel a sense of peace.
My heart suddenly became peaceful:
“Is this the city of innocence?”
Fu Shaoping and the other man had just stood still.
A girl in her early teens came up to him immediately. She fluttered her bunny ears and smiled sweetly:
"Is this your first time in the City of Innocence? I am Xiuzhi, and my ancestors for five generations have been natives of the City of Innocence. Don't underestimate me because I know the City of Innocence like the back of my hand. I can be said to be an expert on everything in the City of Innocence. Do you need me as your guide? As for the remuneration, it's up to you, seniors."
This is the city of innocence.
Fu Shaoping knew very little about it.
It was nice to have a local as a guide.
He nodded slightly and said:
"Do you have a topographical map?"
The City of Innocence is too big.
There are no topographic maps.
They are undoubtedly in the dark here.
When Suzy heard this, her bunny ears immediately stood up and she smiled:
"Of course there is. Please wait a moment, sir."
talking.
Xiuzhi took out a jade slip from her bosom and handed it to Fu Shaoping:
"I bought this jade slip from the Pepsi Gate. It costs 20 Yuan stones each. If you need it, you can take it at the original price."
Twenty Yuanshi are not expensive.
After Fu Shaoping threw the Yuanshi to the other party, he took the jade slip and placed it on his forehead.
The entire appearance of the City of Innocence suddenly appeared in the sea of consciousness.
This innocent city is divided into the inner city and the outer city.
Each person paid two thousand Yuan stones to enter the outer city, which had a total of 108 peaks. The peaks were full of vitality and were often inhabited by warriors below the Yuandan realm.
it's here.
All the houses and mountains belong to the owner of the City of Innocence, and they need to pay rent every year, which is equivalent to the protection fee for entering the City of Innocence. Apart from that, there is no need to pay anything extra in the City of Innocence.
However, there are three rules:
First: No matter who it is, no one is allowed to take action privately in the City of Innocence. Violators will be directly killed by the power of the formation driven by the supervisors. This rule was established after that great war.
At the beginning.
When this guideline was issued.
There was a great Nascent Soul cultivator who did not take it seriously and chased after a Yuandan realm warrior in a mortal city. As a result, he was killed by the power of the formation. Since then, the power of the formation has been deeply rooted in people's hearts and no one dares to cross it.
The second rule is that if you have grudges, you can go to the underground fighting arena, and once you come to the stage, life and death are left to fate.
The third rule is that if you live in the City of Innocence permanently, you must unconditionally worship the statue of Fairy Taiyun, the lord of the City of Innocence, at home.
When Fu Shaoping saw the last one, surprise flashed in his eyes:
"Could it be that the Lord of the City of Innocence is also cultivating the power of totems?"
Thinking that the other person has lived for more than ten thousand years.
The pupils shrank.
He immediately thought of the dragon statue in the underworld temple:
"Could it be that the Lord of this City of Innocence is a statue of a god?"
Fu Shaoping cleared away all distracting thoughts in his mind.
The outer city of the City of Innocence alone has a population of nearly one million, so finding the Thousand-Faced God is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack.
There is no clue at the moment.
but.
According to the files, the Thousand Faced God was already at the peak of the Tianyuan Realm when he escaped. Now that twenty years have passed, he may have broken through to the Yuandan Realm. In other words, the Thousand Faced God is most likely stationed in the inner city.
Fu Shaoping said:
"Ancestor, shall we go to the inner city first?"
"Alright"
Patriarch Fu nodded slightly.
The first rule of the City of Innocence made them feel relieved.
As long as there is no large-scale war, they will be safe here.
Fu Shaoping's spiritual sense swept through the jade slip and found that the inner and outer cities were transported through the teleportation hall. The teleportation hall was on the main peak. With the jade slip, Fu Shaoping could get there directly. He threw fifty Yuanshi to Xiuzhi and said:
"Help me to find out about someone in the outer city. If the information you provide is true, I will reward you with one thousand Yuanshi."
talking.
Fu Shaoping handed the scroll with the portrait of the Thousand-Faced God to the other party.
Xiuzhi didn't expect Fu Shaoping to be so generous. The reward was fifty yuan stones. She accepted it happily. When she heard that there was another task worth one thousand yuan stones, she took it immediately and took a look. She glanced at the portrait and saw that it was a handsome man. Xiuzhi glanced at it and was stunned for a moment.
Fu Shaoping's eyes lit up, and he looked forward to it:
"Why, do you recognize this person?"
