Mo Buping and Zhao Guyu were on their way back to the capital. In the past year, the two of them went from being strangers to sleeping together. Their friendship with each other has become deeper and deeper, and they have already advanced from casual friends to close friends.
Because of this, Zhao Guyu took advantage of the break before the tenth round of the practice ball competition to specially invite Mo Buping to Niushou Mountain as a guest.
Niushou Mountain is very close to the capital, just east of Dasheng Pass. It is where the Zhao family of the Yingtianfu family practices. Mo Buping happily agreed and followed Zhao Guyu to live in Niushou Mountain for three days.
Tomorrow is the tenth round of the competition, and the two of them have to hurry up and return to the capital today, otherwise they will miss the lottery sale. Therefore, before dawn, the two of them got up early and arrived at Jubao Mountain in more than an hour.
In just half an hour, you can reach the capital.
Chatting all the way, Mo Buping knew the meaning of Zhao Guyu's invitation and was very grateful. He had been thinking about it seriously along the way. At this moment, he finally made up his mind and said: "My sister is graceful, dignified, and kind."
My brother admires her for being quiet and intelligent. I wonder if Uncle Zhao would be interested in proposing marriage for my brother?"
Zhao Guyu had been waiting for his words for a long time, and laughed when he heard this: "My father was full of praise for Brother Mo, so the matter is settled!"
So, the two of them discussed the various regulations for the double cultivation ceremony. When the details were finalized, they each flew the talisman back to the mountain. On the one hand, they asked their second uncle to send someone to propose marriage, and on the other hand, they asked their father to prepare a reply. After the flying talisman was issued,
They smiled at each other, each feeling extremely happy.
The relationship between the two took a further step, and they had nothing to hide from each other. After waiting for a long time, Mo Bu didn't wait for a reply from Mo's Villa. He couldn't help but feel anxious. Zhao Guyu persuaded him: "Such a major matter must be discussed by the elders.
Yes, how could you agree so quickly? Didn’t my father not reply?"
"Yes, it's because brother Wei is impatient. When the arena battle of the summer competition is over, brother Wei will return to Quzhou immediately..."
Just as he was talking, Zhao Guyu pulled his sleeve: "Brother Mo, Brother Mo..."
Mo Buping followed Zhao Guyu's gaze and discovered that the treasure gathering gate had been closed, the waterway under the city gate was blocked by a thick iron fence, and there were sergeants on guard both above and below the city, all equipped with swords, guns, shields and halberds!
When I got closer, I saw a notice posted on a white board with exposed cloth on the city wall, stating that due to the search for serious criminals from the imperial court, the city would need to be locked down for three days, and no passage would be allowed without a document from the Ministry of War.
Zhao Guyu said anxiously: "Why should a felon be locked up for three days? Once the three days are over, how can we watch the tenth round of the game? How can we buy lottery tickets?"
Mo Buping tugged on Zhao Guyu's sleeves to signal him to pay attention. Only then did Zhao Guyu realize that the soldiers guarding the city were all wearing rune armor and holding magical weapons.
This shows that the so-called heavy offenders of the imperial court should be monks.
At this moment, hundreds of people have gathered under the city gate. There are travelers returning home, hawkers selling goods, farmers picking vegetables and meat into the city, donkey carts pulling coal and firewood, and many others preparing to collect treasures from the city.
Cargo ships entering the city through the Menshui Channel were blocked outside. Hundreds of people were outside the Jubao Gate, pointing inside, and some of the more impatient ones had already begun to complain.
Mo Buping saw at a glance that several people in the crowd were monks from Taizhou Huizhen Hall. The reason why he could recognize them was because the leader was the player who was temporarily ranked second in the Huangguan Group Practice Ball Competition. He was from Huizhen Hall.
Lan Shui Mo, the great disciple of the third generation.
Mo Buping and Zhao Guyu squeezed in front of him and clasped their fists: "Senior Brother Lan! I didn't expect to meet you here today. I'm glad to meet you!"
Hearing this, Lan Shuimo quickly stepped aside and returned the greeting with fists in his arms: "I don't dare to be called senior brother. This fellow Taoist is..."
Mo Buping and Zhao Guyu introduced themselves, and then said: "The two of us have admired Senior Brother Lan for a long time. Senior Brother Lan's demeanor on the training ground is really radiant..."
With the practice ball as the topic, the distance between the two sides immediately became much closer. After a few words, they talked about the closing of the city gate. Lan Shuimo told Mo Buping and Zhao Guyu that they had already circled the capital, no matter what.
With the Jubao Gate blockade alone, all thirteen city gates have been closed.
Lan Shuimo will play tomorrow. For him, this is a crucial game. He has to decide against Cai Zhikun, a monk from Huizhou Qiyun Hall who is temporarily ranked first. This is a game worth six points. Who will win?
, whoever will almost lock in the first place in the Huangguan Group will be qualified to compete in the ring with the champion Yan Shifan.
In such a game, he couldn't enter the city. How could he not be anxious?
A junior brother from Huizhenkan came forward on his behalf, and after explaining the situation to the defenders, he was given the opportunity to go up to the city to see them on the summit.
Mo Buping said with great hope: "It seems there is hope, then I will take advantage of Senior Brother Lan."
Lan Shuimo shook his head and said: "I have already visited the city gate four times. Taiping Gate, Dinghuai Gate, Qingliang Gate, and Sanshan Gate have not been negotiated. This is the fifth and last time. If it still doesn't work, go in
Not going."
"Where are the other doors? Didn't you go up and ask?"
"I didn't let you go to the city."
Not long after, the young junior brother from Huizhen Hall came down and said in frustration: "Brother, it still doesn't work."
Lan Shuimo asked: "Who is in charge of the tower here?"
The junior brother replied: "It's a monk from the Third Palace, surnamed Lin, and a Qianhu from Jinyiweinan Town Fusi, named Zhuoyi. The one named Lin said he could let it go, but Zhuo Qianhu said he couldn't, and Taoist friend Lin was not happy.
, got off the tower."
Everyone was silent for a while, not knowing what to do next. Mo Buping and Zhao Guyu contacted Caiyou Huang Yu and Feifu, but they couldn't get in touch for a while. They were really as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
Mo Buping and Zhao Guyu left the Jubao Gate, spread out their body skills and walked around the city wall, and found that just as Lan Shuimo said, all thirteen city gates were sealed, and their trip was in vain.
When they turned back to Jubao Gate, one of Lan Shuimo's juniors sneered softly: "If you still don't believe us, you will have to hit the south wall yourself to know that you are blind."
Mo Buping and Zhao Guyu didn't want to retort, they just wanted to find some people to think of a solution. So they stepped forward and said to Lan Shuimo, "Senior Brother Lan, is there any solution?"
Lan Shuimo said helplessly: "Wait a little longer."
Zhao Guyu is impatient, but he doesn't have the time. When will he go? He simply suggested: "How about we break in?"
Lan Shuimo was startled, shook his head and said: "How can this be done? Who can bear to be held accountable?"
Zhao Guyu said: "There are more than ten of us..." He looked around again: "No, there are more than twenty people now. Destroy the iron fence and rush in like a swarm of swarms! As the saying goes, there is no law.
Blame everyone..."
Lan Shuimu said: "The iron grid is made of special materials and can withstand high-level magic weapons. How to destroy it?"
This time Mo Buping was inspired, pointing to the tower and saying: "The offensive and defensive weapons above are not activated, they are just ordinary soldiers, equipped with rune armor at most. Let's all rush in through the city. Who can stop us?
How many monks can there be in Shangsan Palace?"
ps: Another month has passed. I would like to thank last month’s No. 1 fan Heng Liyu and No. 1 Voter Sailor 135 for their support. I kneel down.
