Chapter 264 Entering the city
As the saying goes, you stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, but you don't know that the people under the bridge are looking at you. When Wei Wuji, Shen Ye and others were looking at the majestic city of Heiguo, the soldiers of Heiguo guarding the city at the city gate also
He was looking at Wei Wuji and others with his sharp eyes.
There are only a few tourists coming to and from the Black Country, and with the large number of people on Wei Wuji's side, they will naturally attract the attention of the soldiers guarding the city, not to mention how eye-catching the appearance of Wei Wuji and others, who are completely different from those of the citizens of the Western Regions, will appear at this time.
However, after careful consideration, these city gate guards had no intention of causing trouble to Wei Wuji and others. On the one hand, this was because although the citizens of the Black Kingdom did not like to see outsiders very much, they were not ready to threaten them when they saw them.
To the extent of hacking and killing, if the citizens of the Black Country really dared to act like this, let alone anyone coming to visit the Black Country, I am afraid that the Black Country would have been destroyed long ago.
On the other hand, it is because these soldiers who defend the city are not ordinary citizens of the Black Country, but soldiers in the regular army of the Black Country. Although the Black Country can be said to be a soldier for all people, not everyone can join the army of the Black Country.
Yes, you must be an elite citizen of the Black Kingdom to be recruited into the army by the Black King's royal family.
Due to national strength and territory, the army of the Black Kingdom is certainly not as large as the army of the Davidic Dynasty, and may not even be as large as the Zhenxi Army stationed in Zhenxi Mansion in Yongzhou. However, in terms of tactical literacy and orders and prohibitions, the Black Kingdom's army is not inferior.
To the army of the Davidic Dynasty, so before Wei Wuji and others showed their danger, these city defenders would not embarrass them.
Over there, Wei Wuji and Shen Ye also turned their attention away from the city of Heiguo. On the one hand, it was because although the city of Heiguo was majestic, it was not as prosperous and magnificent as Liuli City after all. Just looking at it for a while was enough.
.
On the other hand, Shen Ye is a Xiantian realm warrior. Although Wei Wuji has not reached the Xiantian realm, he is a body-refining warrior. Both of their five senses are extremely sharp. The Black Country defenders have been sizing them up, and naturally these two are also
It was clear that although they still didn't know what these soldiers meant, it was not very pleasant to be stared at all the time, so the two of them had already decided to enter the city.
However, before entering the city, Shen Ye still smiled and asked Wei Wuji: "Wuji, we are about to enter the Black Kingdom, are you scared?"
Wei Wuji chuckled when he heard this and said, "Afraid? Why are you afraid? This is the Black Kingdom, not the Black Wind Village. What should I be afraid of?"
Shen Ye narrowed her beautiful eyes and asked softly: "Although this is not the Black Wind Village, it is probably no safer than the Black Wind Village. Wuji, do you know what the specialty of the Black Country is?"
Wei Wuji nodded when he heard this and said: "I know, I heard you mention it in the Shen family, and you introduced me to it many times along the way. Black gold is said to be able to greatly improve the quality of weapons and armor. This is also
The guarantee for the Black Country’s unimpeded power in the Western Regions in recent years.”
Shen Ye laughed and continued to ask: "Although the glazed stone is gorgeous and magnificent, it cannot improve the weapon in any way. It can only change the color of the weapon. Even so, the glazed stone is in short supply in David.
This business has supported the Shen family in Nuo Da, so Wuji, do you know why black gold has such miraculous effects but no one sells it to David?"
Wei Wuji shook his head honestly and said: "I really don't know about this. I have been as far as Changping Mansion before. Where can I go to learn about the affairs between the Western Regions and David? Could it be that the imperial court is blocking it? After all, this is Black gold can also be considered a weapon of war."
Shen Ye shook his head slightly and said: "No, although black gold is said to be very effective when mixed into equipment, our David's court has something better than him. If not, the Zhenxi Army would have put it The Black Country was destroyed, but can it still survive to this day?
The reason why black gold cannot circulate between the Western Regions and David like glazed stones is that it involves the situation in the Western Regions. The situation in the Western Regions is complicated at the same time and simple at the same time.
Because although there are dozens of countries of different sizes in the Western Region, none of these countries are the real owners of this land. The real owners of this land are the Tantric Sect and the Great Rakshasa Sect, which are famous throughout the world."
Wei Wuji nodded and said: "I know that they are two of the top twelve major forces in the entire world. They are to the Western Region what the Nine Poison Sect is to the Southern Border, right?"
Shen Ye nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, but as the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. How can these two top forces live in peace with each other if they are in the same land in the Western Region? It's fine when there is an invasion by foreign enemies, but once there are no foreign enemies With the oppression, the two major forces will immediately confront each other tit for tat. Although the Tantric Sect and the Great Rakshasa Sect are almost the same in strength, they are very different from each other. The Tantric Sect is a religion, while the Great Rakshasa Sect is a sect."
Wei Wuji scratched his head when he heard this and asked, "Is there any difference between the two?"
Shen Ye smiled softly and said: "Of course there is a difference, and the difference is very big. Tantra is the state religion of the Western Regions. There are countless people in the Western Regions who believe in Tantra. Nine out of ten royal families in many countries in the Western Region believe in Tantra.
In contrast, the Great Rakshasa Sect is a pure sect. Although they believe in the evil god Rakshasa, they do not require others to believe in it like them. Therefore, those low-life people who are not looked down upon and accepted by Tantra Most of the people have joined the Great Rakshasa Sect.
However, unlike the situation where the Tantric Sect controls the upper echelons of many countries in the Western Region, and the Great Rakshasa Sect controls the middle and lower levels of many countries in the Western Region, the strength comparison between these two forces has to be interchanged with each other. The Tantric Sect is stronger at the bottom and the mid-level, while The Great Rakshasa Sect is the strongest at the top.
The Esoteric Sect surpasses the Great Rakshasa Sect in terms of strength and number of warriors in the Gangqi Realm and Xiantian and Houtian realms, but it just loses to the Great Rakshasa Sect in terms of the top Dharma Realm experts. Of course, this does not mean that It’s not because those who are strong in the Dharma Mirror of Tantra are weak, on the contrary, those who are strong in the Dharma Mirror of Tantra are absolutely superior in strength, but the leader of the Great Rakshasa Sect is really unparalleled in the world.”
Wei Wuji nodded in agreement when he heard this and said: "I've heard of this. It is said that the leader of the Great Rakshasa Sect has been at the top of the list of people since he entered the world, and then continued to be the top of the list of places. Now it occupies the top spot on the charts, and it has never failed since its debut. This is how a man should be!"
Hearing this, Shen Ye rolled his eyes at Wei Wuji and said: "Now is not the time for you to express your emotions. It is precisely because of the mutual reluctance of these two forces that the Black Country was caught in the middle and became a victim. The Black Country is really Whether it succeeds or fails, it is black gold. It was able to develop to this point because of black gold, but it was also because of black gold that it was targeted by the two forces that dominated the Western Region.
In fact, neither the Tantric Sect nor the Great Rakshasa Sect actually needs black gold. A strong person in the Dharma Realm can be as powerful as a million divisions. No matter how well-equipped the Black Country's army is, it is all in vain in front of these two behemoths.
, but although these two major forces did not need black gold, they did not want each other to get black gold, so the two forces competed in the black country.
At present, there is no strong person above the Gang Qi realm in the Black Kingdom, and the strongest King of the Black Kingdom is only at the peak of the Xiantian realm. However, it is not that the Black Kingdom has never had a strong person above the Gang Qi realm.
If someone in the country breaks through to the Gang Qi realm, they will immediately be forcibly invited out of the Black Country by masters of the Tantric Sect and the Great Rakshasa Sect.
Because once a strong Dharma Mirror emerges from the Black Country, then relying on the existence of Black Gold, a force second only to the Tantric Sect and the Great Rakshasa Sect may not be created, so the Tantric Sect and the Great Rakshasa Sect will simply become
It is better to strike first. As long as someone from the Black Kingdom breaks through to the Gang Qi realm, they must choose between the Tantric Sect and the Great Rakshasa Sect to join. They are no longer allowed to interfere with the affairs of the Black Kingdom. As for which force they will join in the future, it is said that it is a matter of fate between the two.
It’s decided by coins.”
Wei Wuji looked at Shen Ye and said doubtfully: "I understand a little bit of what you are talking about, but does it have anything to do with what you told me that the Black Country is not safe?"
Shen Ye lightly glanced at Wei Wuji and snorted: "Isn't that what I meant to say? There have been quite a few families in David who wanted to bring this black gold back to David, but without exception they all failed.
Failed.
The reason is that there is no Gang Qi Realm in the Black Kingdom. Similarly, the people David travels to and from the Black Kingdom cannot have the Gang Qi Realm. Otherwise, the masters of the Tantric Sect and the Great Rakshasa Sect lurking in the Black Kingdom will take action immediately.
And after those David warriors in the Xiantian realm came to the Black Kingdom, they were always imprisoned by the Black King's royal family for unknown reasons.
Even if the business wasn't settled, the Black King's royal family would demand a ransom. Over time, no one in David's family would think or dare to do business with the Black King."
Wei Wuji heard this and said strangely: "That's not right. According to what you said, there is no strong person in the Gangqi realm in the Black Kingdom. The Xiantian realm is fighting the Xiantian realm. There is no one who David came to discuss business with who can beat this person from the Black Kingdom."
People?"
Shen Ye said with a smile: "This is the territory of the Black Country after all. There are many people in the Black Country. Moreover, although the King of the Black Country is not in the Gangqi realm, he has few opponents in the innate realm.
Besides, David's truly innate strong men, like those on the list, all come from big families, and the family power behind them doesn't care about the black gold of this black country.
As for those who come from small families and sects, except for a few geniuses, how many of them can stand out among the others in a martial arts realm? Therefore, this has led to the failure of all those who went to the Black Country to discuss business over the years.
Return."
Wei Wuji looked at Shen Ye and said with a speechless expression: "Then you still dare to run to this black country? Are we no longer a small family? Xiaoye, we still have time to go back now. At worst, we can think of other solutions."
Shen Ye rolled his eyes at Wei Wuji angrily and said, "Are you going to retreat before we even enter the Black Country? Although there are dozens of small and large countries in the Western Region.
But some of these countries have no special products, and some countries have special products but they are of little use. Those countries that have special products that can be sold at a good price in David also have regular business partners.
Just like our Shen family and the Liuli Kingdom, this black country alone has no fixed business partners due to its previous reputation, so this gives us the opportunity to intervene. How can we intervene in other countries."
Wei Wuji sighed and said, "That's the truth, but the problem is what should we do if we are also imprisoned by those from the Black Country?"
When Shen Ye heard Wei Wuji's words, he laughed like a child who only got candy, and said: "So I have to rely on you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't dare to suggest coming to the Black Country. It's rare for a small family to Genius, but I know you are the exception, you will protect me, right? Wuji."
Wei Wuji heard this and stretched out his hand to rub Shen Ye's head, and said calmly: "Of course, but I can only say that I tried my best. After all, I have never fought against a strong person at the peak of the Xiantian realm. I don't know if I can beat him." But, oh, if I had known this earlier, I would have discussed it with your grandfather before setting off."
Shen Ye took off Wei Wuji's hand from his head, crossed his fingers and held it in his own, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I believe you. Besides, we are here to discuss business after all, so we may not get into a fight.
Those people were imprisoned by the people of the Black Country for unknown reasons. Maybe they offended the royal family of the Black Country with their words?
Besides, even if there is a fight, if you fail, you will just be imprisoned and held for ransom. Although our Shen family is not a big family, we can still afford this ransom.
The Black Kingdom will release people after receiving the ransom. Those previously imprisoned have all returned safely to David's territory. The Black Kingdom is very trustworthy. If it weren't for this kind of guarantee, I wouldn't dare to do so. It’s easy to take risks here.”
Wei Wuji shook his head and said helplessly: "You, you, it turns out that I have been prepared in my heart for a long time. I knew that if the Black Country was really so dangerous, you would never let him come in so rashly."
Shen Ye smiled heartily when he heard this and said, "Wuji, you still understand me. Okay, let's go into the city. We'll just adapt to the situation after that. I hope everything goes well."
Although as Shen Ye said, those of them who came from the David Dynasty specifically for black gold may encounter some unexpected dangers after entering the black country, Wei Wuji did not feel much afraid. The purpose of asking more questions was to reconfirm Shen Ye's choice.
It's not like Wei Wuji has never killed a warrior in the Xiantian realm. Moreover, even if he can't defeat the king of the Black Kingdom who is at the peak of the Xiantian realm, Wei Wuji will still be sure to escape with Shen Ye.
After all, he is a body-refining warrior. Whether he can hit people well or not is another matter. He must be a good hand at being beaten. Besides, he has come all the way to the Black Country. How can he just give up without giving it a try?
Wei Wuji and Shen Ye led the caravan towards the city gate of the Black Kingdom. The gatekeepers who had been watching them for a long time immediately cheered up, stretched out their hands to stop Wei Wuji and others, and asked in a deep voice: "Where are you from? Come here? What happened to the Black Country?"
Shen Ye smiled when he heard this and replied: "We came from Changping Mansion in Yongzhou, David, for the purpose of doing business with the monarch."
