Chapter 18: Overwhelm the whole city, welcome a hundred miles, and wait for the prince (six thousand
"Yeah! How far is it to Yong'an City?" Ti Que followed Lin Xi. His Mandarin became more and more normal, but his accent in some places seemed to be irreversible.
Lin Xi stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Don't worry! It's almost over! There are still more than 150 miles."
Titmouse said happily: "Isn't that coming soon? Can we go into the city in the afternoon and eat the flavored chicken that Hei Qiu'er mentioned?"
The black ball in the tit's mouth is Dingxiang Hou Tianzheng.
After Tian Zheng was beaten by a tit, he quickly recovered with the help of family worshipers.
Because Lin Xi's momentum continued to grow and the power he held frightened him for the time being, he did not dare to trouble Lin Xi again.
But he directed all his anger towards the tit.
He personally led people to beat the tits on several occasions.
But he was easily pushed violently by the tit.
To Titmouse, Tian Zheng seemed to have become his playmate after coming down the mountain.
But...it's obvious that Tian Zheng himself would never think so.
"The flavored chicken is too small and you can't get used to it. Yong'an City also offers roasted whole lamb and roasted whole pig. You will definitely like it!" Lin Xi said with a smile.
"But if you want to eat, you have to wait until tonight at least."
Although the team is long, the speed is by no means slow.
The elephant chariot riding on the barbarian cavalry guard Lin Xi, who was riding a monster tiger and leopard, was surrounded by people in front and behind.
In the distance, the loud sound of gongs and drums was first heard.
There were honor guards standing on the short hills on the left and right, singing various welcome songs from a distance.
The closer we get to Yong'an City, the denser the welcoming teams are on the left and right.
It seemed that the entire people of Yong'an City had been mobilized.
Lin Xi was sitting in the elephant carriage, but she didn't feel much emotion.
The negative emotions that keep coming are not fake.
No matter how much people welcome him, deep down they still feel disgust and resistance.
The runes of flame ignited the gorgeous but not very powerful spell.
Under the blue sky and white sun, various strange phenomena have been revealed.
There are golden lotuses all over the mountains and plains, all blooming in one breath.
There are also golden dragons and colorful phoenixes soaring in the nine heavens, sending auspicious welcome.
However, the weak spiritual energy fluctuations indicate that most of these wonderful scenes are just superficial illusions, and they can only be used to deceive the most unsighted ordinary people.
Of course, it doesn't hurt to use it to create some atmosphere.
Looking further away, the tall city wall of Yong'an City is already visible in the distance.
He prostrates majestically on the vast earth, like a dormant and sleeping beast.
In fact, it does.
From Wen Yuanxiang's memory, Lin Xi can learn.
Yong'an City is built on the skull of a dragon's corpse. Borrowing the remaining power of the dragon's corpse, Yong'an City itself also has a blue dragon formation.
Qinglong Street is where the keel of the formation is located.
Because of such a large formation, Yong'an City was called Yong'an.
Under the city wall, there are a group of officials below the fifth rank. They are all eagerly awaiting the return of Lin Xi, the 'prime minister'.
At the same time, on the city tower, the sound of drums that shocked the whole city was heard intensively.
A long procession, wearing gold and silver armor, marched solemnly from the imperial city.
The horse with some dragon blood pulled the dragon chariot through Qinglong Street and arrived at the west gate of Yong'an.
"Yeah! They are all welcoming you!" Titmouse said excitedly.
The tit, which is more than three meters tall, is as happy as a five-hundred-pound child.
"No! Titmouse, they are afraid of me!"
"People who think they are on a higher level will never pay such a high standard of etiquette to welcome a 'subordinate'." Lin Xi said something that Ti Qiao could not understand yet.
Most barbarians are not really stupid.
It's just that their strength is so strong and their bodies are so strong that most of the time, they don't need to use their brains to think about problems.
When almost everything can be done directly with muscles, no one will get used to or like it and think with their brains.
He took out a long riding crop in his hand.
Lin Xi stood at the front of the car and waved his whip in the air.
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
Three blasts were like the sound of cannons.
Tigers and leopards neighed together.
The roar coming from the ancient millions of wild mountains almost made Yong'an City, which had enjoyed peace for so long, tremble at the roar.
The barbarian cavalry, riding astride tigers and leopards, used their heavy weapons to hit the shields on their bodies.
The sound of gold and iron mingling pierced the clouds and shocked the hearts of everyone who saw it.
"Your Majesty, Wen Yuanxiang, pays homage to Your Majesty. Your Majesty treats you so kindly and courteously. I am so grateful that I shed tears of gratitude!" Lin Xi's voice penetrated the layers of noise, like a resounding arrow, piercing straight into Yong'an City.
The welcoming team that had not yet taken a stand at the gate of Yong'an City seemed to be interrupted by Lin Xi's voice.
After a little panic, Emperor Da Zui stepped out of the dragon chariot.
The waiter beside him was holding a megaphone.
Spread the emperor's voice throughout the land.
"Old Wen has returned regardless of previous suspicions. I am very happy. A banquet has been held in the Longevity Palace. I also invite Old Wen to enter the palace with me. Both tigers and leopards can enter the Frightened Garden. You barbarian warriors can also set up camp here. Later,
I have my own servants from the Department of Internal Affairs to provide wine and meat to all the warriors." The emperor did not say the long, hypocritical words originally planned, which seemed to be suitable for the emperor and his ministers.
Instead, he said something very simply and in the shortest terms.
But he expressed his intentions very completely.
Lin Xi just took the lead.
But he already knew that the Wen Yuanxiang who returned this time was indeed no longer the loyal and patriotic Wen Yuanxiang of the past who did not care about his own life.
Only then can a gentleman be deceived.
But now... in the eyes of the emperor, Wen Yuanxiang, played by Lin Xi, is clearly a powerful man.
Faced with the emperor's proposal, Lin Xi flatly refused and said: "The emperor is so kind to me, and I am so grateful. However, these barbarians are all my brothers. They eat and live together, and there is no difference. Your Majesty is hosting a banquet, and I am grateful.
It's time to go, but I can't bear to live up to the friendship of these barbarian brothers. I can only stay here and pay tribute to Your Majesty from afar, but I still stay here outside the city to eat the banquet given by the emperor with all the barbarian brothers.
"
As soon as Lin Xi said this.
The officials who came with the emperor and greeted Lin Xi at the city gate were immediately in an uproar.
Many people couldn't wait to jump out and criticize Lin Xi in various ways.
Lin Xi ignored all these words.
He knew in his heart that at this moment, right here, there were not many people who sincerely welcomed him back to Yong'an City.
Those surging negative emotions cannot be faked.
With these negative emotions varying in quality but huge in quantity, it was no longer a problem for Lin Xi to break through the cultivation level in Wen Yuanxiang's body to the foundation building stage.
After all, Wen Yuanxiang's physical condition is too weak and he is already quite old, so he needs to consume slightly more resources.
Although it is unlikely, it is not impossible that the emperor set up a trap in the Longevity Palace to ambush Wen Yuanxiang (Lin Xi).
Lin Xi is not afraid of challenges.
But he is by no means a brainless and reckless person.
An angry look appeared on the emperor's face.
really!
Lin Xi's suspicion was not wrong.
He had already ambushed swordsmen and a large number of armored men in the Longevity Palace, as well as some monks who specialized in cursing, poisoning, and assassination.
If Lin Xi enters the palace and does not know what is good or bad, and does not know how to promote him, then as a last resort, the emperor will indeed quietly order to get rid of Lin Xi to eliminate the disaster.
But at this moment, Lin Xi openly resisted the order and never left the three hundred barbarian tiger and leopard cavalry.
This made the emperor feel that he had no way to start.
Three hundred barbarian cavalry, although not as shocking as three thousand.
But it was enough to turn this eternal city into chaos.
It was more than enough to take Lin Xi away from Yong'an and back to the border town in the south of Shannan.
