Shangjing City, the so-called most prosperous city in Sirius Continent, is also the center of politics and power. Qi Tian took Zhang Zhong and Liu Mei directly to the official road, exhausting three horses, and finally on the seventh day
We arrived in Shangjing at dusk.
The guards in Shangjing City are much tighter than those in other cities. People passing by the city gates are standing next to each other, and Qi Tian discovered that these soldiers guarding the city are actually stronger than ordinary masters, and they have more or less slight poisons in their bodies.
Qi Tian could see their uniqueness from their sharp eyes. Every soldier had murderous intent in his eyes. The murderous intent that lingered on the battlefield has not receded yet.
It is indeed different in Beijing. Although it is almost dark, the city is still very lively. Groups of caravans are walking through the streets. There are countless small vendors on both sides of the streets, including entertainers and monkey tricks.
The acrobatic performers were surrounded by crowds of spectators, and bursts of cheers could be heard from time to time. Every restaurant was full of customers, and the brothels were also one after another.
"Brother Tian, how about going to the capital?" Zhang Zhong and Liu Mei felt as if they had returned to their hometown, feeling the familiar feeling brought to them here.
"It's not that good!" This is Qi Tian's inner thoughts, but it's really not that good. Although it's lively, it's totally different from developed cities such as Shanghai and Beijing.
"Not so good? No way, this is the largest, best and most prosperous city in the entire Tianlang Continent!" Zhang Zhong seemed to want to defend, but Qi Tian led the horse directly to the door of an inn.
"Five-star inn!" Qi Tian looked up at this weird name. Logically speaking, five-star inn means reaching the five-star standard, but people here don't know what five-star is, so why do they still have to name it?
What about five stars?
"Please come in, please." Two waiters came out, one went to lead the horse, and the other led Qi Tian towards the hall.
"Xiao Er, why is this place called Five Stars?" Qi Tian asked with great interest.
"Sir, our boss's surname is 'Five' and he is from the Xing tribe, so we named him Five Stars." The waiter explained in a cheerful tone.
"Damn, is this okay?" Qi Tian was speechless. It turned out that it really didn't mean five stars.
In the entire hall of the five-star inn, all the tables were occupied by the dining guests. The second floor and the backyard are the guest rooms. It was just in time for dinner, and all the dining tables were full, so the waiter discussed with the two guests.
After a while, Qi Tian was placed at their table.
The two guests were an old man and a young man. The old man should be over seventy years old based on the earth's calculations. He had gray hair and a white beard. There were two swords on their table. They only wanted one.
A plate of beef and a plate of peanuts. Ever since Qi Tian came in, the old man's eyes had lit up, and there were tears from time to time.
Qi Tian nodded and sat opposite the old man, while Zhang Zhong and Liu Mei sat on both sides.
"Waiter, bring ten of the best dishes, and then give us hot pots of wine." Zhang Zhong ordered ten dishes without any politeness.
"Okay, wait a moment!" The waiter walked to the kitchen with the tray in his hand.
"Old man, what kind of business do you do?" Zhang Zhong started chatting curiously.
"Oh? We are just two passers-by!" Although the old man said it to Zhang Zhong, his eyes never left Qi Tian.
"We were passing by too. We just came from the north. I heard that there was a Qi Daxia recently, which is amazing!" Zhang Zhong gave the old man a funny thumbs up.
"You are coming from the north too? Master and I are too. The whereabouts of this Qi hero are unknown since he killed three cities. I heard that he was killed by the vampires. It's a pity." The young man said to Zhang Zhong curiously.
Got up.
"Impossible, Qi Daxia's kung fu is unparalleled, and those worshippers are no match at all!" Zhang Zhong kept shaking his head.
"Alas, things are unpredictable! Maybe he is really dead!" The young man sighed after finishing speaking.
"He's not dead!" The old man suddenly said three words.
"Master, how do you know?"
"Of course I know!" The old man said in a very affirmative tone, and looked at Qi Tian with the slightest respect in his eyes.
"Yes, he is not dead, and he is probably sitting in this five-star hotel drinking wine! Haha" Qi Tian, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly laughed after hearing what the old man said, and secretly invaded the old man's body with his mental power.
Brainwave, I plan to see what this old man is thinking.
The old man who was drinking suddenly felt a force entering his mind. After being stunned for half a second, he suddenly turned his eyes to Qi Tian and said directly in his mind: "You are finally back!"
"What?" Qi Tian, who was using his mental power to invade the old man's mind, was startled. How could this old man also use his mental power to speak?
"Dear prince, wait for me in the room tonight." After saying this, the old man turned off his mental power and forcibly blocked Qi Tian out.
"Hiss!~" Qi Tian took a breath of air. How is it possible? How could this old man know that he is a royal survivor? How did he guess his identity? If this old man was an enemy, wouldn't he be in a passive position?
Fortunately, the old man called himself 'Prince', otherwise Qitian would really be in chaos.
"Brothers, I heard that the Blood God King's precious daughter 'Princess Changping' has disappeared, and the whereabouts of that Qi hero is also unknown. He hasn't done anything for seven days." Some of the guests at the dinner still like to inquire about gossip.
"Princess Changping is missing? You just know about it? I heard that she has been missing for more than a month."
"Well, I don't know if Master Qi is dead or not. If not, where would he be? Didn't he say he wanted to come to Beijing?" Several guests chatted randomly, and the main topics were all discussed.
They were talking about Princess Changping and Qi Tian.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Qi Tian, Zhang Zhong and Liu Mei moved into the guest rooms in the backyard respectively, and the old man also took his apprentice to rest early.
The five-star inn is extremely quiet late at night. Except for a few snores occasionally coming from the guest room, there is no sound at all.
Qi Tian had been sitting in the room without sleeping or turning on the light. When midnight passed, Qi Tian's door opened silently, and then the old man appeared in Qi Tian's room and knelt down.
"Dear prince, you are finally back. It is my lifelong wish to see you again!" The old man choked and knelt there.
"Old man, get up quickly. How did you know that I am a prince? What is your name?" Qi Tian quickly helped the old man get up.
"I am one of your father's personal guards. My name is 'Mazhi'. As for why I know you are our prince, it is because of the blood in your body and your own smell!" Mazhi replied respectfully.
"My blood and smell? Why can't others see it?" Qi Tian asked confused.
"Except for the thirty-six guards and twenty-four generals of the former king who can tell the difference, the others cannot tell the difference at all, because we have all been crowned by the king and have deep respect for the royal family deep in our souls!
So from the moment you entered the inn, I knew you were a prince and that you had come back from the distant universe!"
"Thirty-six guards? Twenty-four generals? Are there any others alive now?" Qi Tian looked at Mazhi curiously. His father must have his own team, and it is impossible for them all to die.
"Only three of our thirty-six guards are left. As for the generals, except for the two rebels, all of them died in the battle." Ma Zhi sighed.
"Hmph, it must be those two rebellious vampires and witches who colluded, right?" Qi Tian couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"Yes, they have been made princes by the vampire clan." When Ma Zhi said this, there was a cold light in his eyes.
"Where are the other two guards? Where are they?"
"One of them is the owner of Green Willow Villa in Jiangnan, and the other is the owner of Langya Village in Langshan Mountain. They are very famous in the world." Ma Zhi replied without hesitation.
"Oh." Qi Tian nodded and didn't say much. The three old guards were all old. It was impossible for Qi Tian to use them to help him recover his country. Moreover, even if he wanted them to help, he had to do so voluntarily.
That’s it!
Seeing that Qi Tian didn't say much, Ma Zhi quickly expressed his position: "Prince, please rest assured, as long as they hear the news of your return, they will definitely bring their power to join the prince. I can guarantee this with my life!"
"Well, if they are really willing to take refuge in me, that would be great." Qi Tian looked at Mazhi happily.
Perhaps this unexpected surviving guard really brought great help to Qi Tian. These three guards have created their own organizations during decades of seclusion, and they are extremely powerful. With these three forces
After receiving his help, Qi Tianri finally set off a bloody storm of political change in the Yellow River Continent and even the entire Sirius Continent! Of course, this was also what happened after arriving from Earth again!
