Chapter 1235

A group of more than ten people were approaching the gate, and the soldiers guarding the gate became vigilant.

As the distance between the two sides becomes shorter, the soldiers can see each other more clearly. The first one is a very young looking man and a woman. The man is domineering and has the smell of angry King Kong. The woman next to him is quite the opposite. At a glance, it gives people a feeling of spring breeze.

Although there was no malice on both men, the soldiers did not relax. People who can influence others with their own momentum are experts anyway. And there are more than a dozen people behind them. Among these dozen people, the weakest one has reached the middle of the fifth boundary. As for the stronger one, although it is definitely not as strong as the first two, it has exceeded the scope they can see.

In other words, half of these people are better than them.

Not to mention this, what most frightened the two soldiers was the strong murderous spirit emanating from the more than a dozen people behind the first two. This strong murderous spirit clearly tells outsiders that almost everyone of these dozen people has experienced blood.

Among monks, strength can explain many things, but as the saying goes, it is not impossible to kill people who are stronger than themselves. At least the two soldiers fully believe that if they are not deeply involved in the world, such as the childe brothers of some big sects, even if their strength is higher than a small level, these more than a dozen people can easily kill their opponents.

While they were still distracted, the bully had come to them. He took out a golden warrant, on which the word "kill the devil" was Yin engraved in seal script.

"Yunbatian, the demon killing group of Qingguo Imperial City, wants to enter the city. I hope you two will let go." It was Yun batian who just came out of Qingguo imperial city. After leaving Qingtian City, Yun batian rushed all the way with others around him and came here. As for the purpose of his coming here, no one knows.

The two soldiers guarding the city suddenly came to their senses. If the other party forcibly entered the city, they really didn't dare to say anything. But since yunbatian politely presented the warrant, they have to check it carefully.

A soldier took out an account and began to read it. All pass warrants of the Qing state are recorded in this book, but none of the them is demon killing group. However, Yun batian was not in a hurry and slowly explained: "the demon killing group is a newly established organization. Of course you don't know. If you have any questions, you can ask your city master."

The soldier looked at yunbatian suspiciously, but he thought that the other party had no need to deceive himself, so he explained to another soldier and ran towards the city.

"Young master Yun, hasn't the demon killing order been announced to the world? Why haven't you received any news here?" A bald man behind Yun batian looked at Yun batian and asked puzzled.

Yun batian turned back and smiled at him: "It's not surprising that it's far from Qingtian city. The imperial edict came from Qingtian city. It's not like we can run all the way, but we have to go through one post station after another. In addition, the confusion of the border makes the speed of news propagation slower. Maybe the news of demons hasn't reached here yet. They don't know that the imperial edict is normal."

The bald man nodded without much doubt.

The people behind yunbatian are the Tianji Pavilion people who thought they were not strong enough to follow Yang Xuan after they left Dongzhou Wei state with Yang Xuan and came to the central axis. It has been six months since Tianji Pavilion people separated from Yang Xuan. In these six months, they have been practicing with yunbatian.

If Yang Xuan saw this group again, I'm afraid he would be surprised. Although the speed of people's strength improvement can't be compared with Yang Xuan, in just half a year, their strength has improved to a level, and their breath has also undergone earth shaking changes. If such speed comes out, it will definitely cause a shock.

The city guard was very fast. In a few minutes, he ran back and forth from the city gate to the city master's residence and reappeared at the city gate. Behind him, there was a fine horse. A middle-aged man who looked very smart was sitting on the back of the horse and was galloping here.

"This is our Lord." When the soldier saw yunbatian looking at the middle-aged man, he explained to him.

Although the border is also under the jurisdiction of Qingtian City, the so-called mountain is high and the emperor is far away. For a long time, Guandong city has not been very cold to the people in the imperial city. In addition, Guandong city has always been under the full jurisdiction of the city master. It only needs to report the memorial every month to explain the local situation. Therefore, in the eyes of most people in the city, the city master of Guandong city is the second emperor here.

Originally, the soldier thought that the city Lord would be the same as usual this time. He just nodded lightly and didn't take it seriously. But what surprised him was that the city Lord suddenly changed his face after hearing the three words of demon killing order, and then hurried over.

This made the soldier really frightened. At this time, he knew how old the young man outside the city gate was.

The city Lord rode his horse to the gate of the city and immediately got off the horse. Then he led his horse to yunbatian, and unexpectedly gave yunbatian the standard etiquette when subordinates in Qingguo met their superiors. This action was very difficult, and it was replaced by simplified actions on weekdays. In addition, the city Lord had not saluted like this for many years, which was a little difficult for a moment.

But even so, the city Lord respectfully finished the ceremony. Then he stood up and said, "Xiaguan Guandong City Lord Zheng De, have you seen the general?"

"Get up." Yun batian nodded slowly, not surprised by Zheng De's address. The demon killing group is in the charge of the general beifeiyan in Qingguo. Beifeiyan is the general, so yunbatian naturally joined the military headquarters. Now yunbatian's official title is partial to general. It's not surprising to be called general.

Zheng de just stood up, but he still didn't know what Yun batian meant. He couldn't help looking at Yun batian carefully. Yunbatian stared at Zheng de and asked angrily, "you have received the edict. Why didn't you announce it in the city?"

"I dare not." When Zheng de heard this, he quickly explained, "I only received the edict an hour ago. I was busy with my official business, so I didn't have time to announce it. I didn't expect the general to arrive so soon. It was my dereliction of duty."

Yunbatian didn't argue with Zheng de too much, but said slowly, "this matter is related to the future fate of the whole Qing country. Absolutely don't neglect it. But I'll have other things to do when I come to Guandong city today, so I won't argue with you."

Chapter 1240

Cloud City out of the city

As the safest city on the border, there are many residents in Kanto City, and the most impressive one is an old man who lives in the street closest to the city gate.

The old man should look 70 or 80 years old, very old. His origin is very mysterious. He came to Guandong city ten years ago. At that time, Guandong city was still very dilapidated, and only the city was a safer place. As a helpless old man, he could not settle in the city, so he had to stay on the edge of the city.

The old man has only one arm. If he was placed elsewhere, someone would certainly connect him with the old gods in Kanto. But as long as I see the old man, I certainly won't have such an idea.

The old man called himself Yuncheng. He looked very insignificant on weekdays, and he didn't have the slightest spiritual power. His long gray hair is often in a messy state. Because of the lack of an arm, I can't do any heavy work. I can only open up a vegetable field in the wasteland of the city and grow some crops for self-sufficiency. Even so, with the increasing prosperity of Kanto City, these wastelands were occupied by people.

But he never argued about it, just changed a place to continue planting. Until a few years ago, there was no place to grow vegetables in the city, and it was very dangerous outside the city. The city Lord of Guandong City ordered people to send some food to the elderly every month. But even so, the old man is still very poor.

Food is very precious at the border, so people often sneak into the old man's dilapidated house and steal all the rice and flour in the house.

The old man's daily dress is also very sloppy. He seems to have only two clothes, a black suit and a white Confucian suit. If it's winter, he will find a dark and shiny wool felt that he hasn't worn for many years. Because of the perennial lack of food and clothing, the old man has been skinny from hunger.

Because of his appearance, no one in Kanto wanted to communicate with him.

Therefore, after planting, the old man did nothing on weekdays. He sat at the door of his house and looked to the northwest. He was stunned and didn't know what he was thinking.

Some people say that he is missing his hometown.

…

Yunbatian enters the city from outside the city gate. The city Lord Zheng De quickly calls his lord Bo. They follow yunbatian and ask for some help when yunbatian needs it.

However, Yun batian, who was already an official to a partial general, didn't put on airs. He allowed the two men to ride behind him. He just took a group of people around the city.

After entering the city gate, we went all the way south. This is the periphery of Guandong city. There are some old, frail and lonely old people living there. At first glance, it seems quite shocking.

The Lord thin looked at this piece and couldn't help frowning. From Zheng De's face, he saw that yunbatian must be an extraordinary person, but he really couldn't figure out why yunbatian came to such a place.

But the other party's status is noble, and Zhu Bo naturally doesn't dare to ask. Seeing that the city Lord didn't speak, he had to keep up silently.

Suddenly, yunbatian came to a very shabby thatched house and stopped. Even in the poorest part of Kanto, the house looks particularly dilapidated. But yunbatian didn't say anything, just walked towards the door.

Of course, Zhu Bo knows this place. The old people who live here moved here ten years ago. They are helpless in Kanto city. They are very poor. It is precisely for this reason that the city Lord will send some food here every once in a while.

In the past, the old man should sit at the door and look at the northwest in a daze. But now it's September. The weather at the border is very cold. Maybe it's because of this. I didn't see the old man at the door.

But in Lord Bo's eyes, yunbatian, who was unattainable, came to the door and knocked on the door a few times.

"Just put the food at the door. The old man's voice came out. Although he was as thin as a wood, his voice was always so loud.

"It's me. Yunbatian didn't take over. He just said calmly, but seeing the light shining in his eyes, his mood was obviously not calm at all.

There was no sound in the room, but soon the door opened with a creak. An old man who looked very sloppy came out of the door. He first looked up and down at Yun batian, and then asked, "aren't you going to Dongfang League? Why are you back so soon?"

At this time, his eyes suddenly fell behind Yun batian, who seemed to have a high status and looked like a woman who was enough to make people lose consciousness among ordinary people.

Lord Bo's footsteps moved. He knew that yunbatian was not low, and this woman was very close to yunbatian all the way. In Lord Bo's opinion, the woman must have a good relationship with yunbatian. But when Lord Bo was ready to come forward and scold the old man for his rudeness, Zheng de grabbed him.

Although Zhu Bo was puzzled by the city Lord's behavior, he just looked at Zheng de in doubt.

Just then, the old man made a move that made the Lord's thin eyes almost fall out of his eyes. The expression on his face suddenly became ferocious, and then the whole man suddenly flew up and flew towards the city.

But the woman he had been staring at for a long time did shout, "don't go." Then he also rose in the air, caught up with the old man at a very fast speed, and held him tightly behind him.

"Yuncheng, I found you." The weeping voice came from the woman's mouth, just like the cuckoo crying blood. But the expression on the old man's face was still very determined. After pushing the woman away, he said to her, "I don't want you to see me now."

Then he was ready to leave again.

But just then, yunbatian on the ground shouted, "Dad!!!"

Hearing this, Yuncheng's body suddenly trembled. Then he stopped, turned to look at Yuncheng and the Lingying in front of him. For a moment, he was at a loss.

Yuncheng hurried to catch up with them. They were all suspended in the air. They didn't know what to talk about. On the ground, Kanto city leaders Bo and Zheng de raised their heads and looked into the air, and Zhu Bo was stunned by this series of changes.

The three didn't know what they said, and soon they flew out of the city. Naturally, the Tianji Pavilion people who followed Yun batian followed.

"Well, he's gone." Zheng de suddenly sighed when he saw the people leaving, and the expression on his face was a little lost. But Lord Bo asked with a puzzled face: "city Lord, who is this old man?"

"He?" Zheng de turned his head to look at Zhu Bo and said faintly, "he is the old immortal who has guarded Guandong city for ten years."
