Chapter 268 There is a big event in Changfeng City
Seeing Changfeng City again made Jin Ruofeng feel a kind of long-lost kindness. The joy of celebrating the God's Advent Festival has slowly disappeared. The farmers in the military households outside the city have begun to prepare for the next busy farming season. Hunters and fishermen
Households are also nervously preparing for their own lives. There are also many business travelers from other places on the roads outside the city. There are also some hunting teams from afar resting outside the city, waiting to enter the city to prepare for acceptance from the city guard.
Mission: Go to the Ming Wasteland to look for opportunities to make a fortune.
"Boss, has the prince arrived at Changfeng City? This level of vigilance is a bit unusual!" Shi Mang saw that although they were within ten miles of Changfeng City, they could already see the armed forces belonging to the city defense team.
, which shows that this place is already within the monitoring range of Changfeng City.
Jin Ruofeng carefully observed these city defense teams. It was obvious that there were Su Guards among them. This was not the case when they left before. Obviously Huang Zhenyu had new measures to mobilize the power to defend against monsters.
Already.
"It should be about the same. Even if the prince doesn't come, it's probably not too far from here!" Jin Ruofeng sighed and said, "I wonder if King Xiaoyao's coming this time will be a blessing or a curse for Changfeng City!"
"Boss, why do you say that? After all, King Xiaoyao is the emperor's uncle, and his reputation in Zhongzhou is also very good. If he is in Changfeng City, it will have a great effect on gathering the popularity of Changfeng City!"
"Shi Mang, although your words are good, I also know that if King Xiaoyao stays in Changfeng City, it will have a very good effect on this place, but you have also seen our experience along the way. Once the emperor confirms that King Xiaoyao is in Changfeng City,
As for Fengcheng, who knows what methods he will use?"
"Will he attack Changfeng City?" Shi Mang laughed, "Changfeng City is located on the border. If the emperor wants to capture Changfeng City, the price he will pay will definitely not be too low!"
Jin Ruofeng shook his head slightly. He pointed to the fields outside and said, "Did you see this? This is Changfeng City. The output of the military households is only enough to make ends meet. The food and grass for the hundreds of thousands of guardsmen all depend on three thousand people."
The output of the fertile land here, and the ordnance is supplemented by the emperor's deployment of the power of Zhongzhou.
Once the emperor cuts off Changfeng City's supply of food and grass, relying solely on the power of the Chamber of Commerce to maintain it will not only be difficult to guarantee, but the cost will also be very huge. The key is that this place is located at the gap of the Ming Mountain. Once a large-scale monster attacks, it will be impossible to survive alone.
I'm afraid the losses to the strength of the Guards will be very serious!"
"Yes, Lord Ruofeng is right. As long as the emperor cuts off Changfeng City's supply of food, grass and weapons, Changfeng City will die without a fight in less than a year!" Quan Yunfeng, as a beast eater, is naturally aware of this.
He has a deep understanding, "This is nothing, the key is the invasion of monsters. If the last large-scale invasion happens, Changfeng City will be in danger!"
"So, if the emperor just issues a decree, Changfeng City will fall apart, and it may cause unnecessary wars, and even make Changfeng City take the initiative to hand over King Xiaoyao!" However, Jin Ruofeng knew that this kind of thing was not possible.
It could happen. After all, since King Xiaoyao regards Changfeng City as the basis for his comeback, it is absolutely impossible to do so without full confidence!
The whereabouts of the three people quickly attracted the attention of the city defense team. After all, a beast cart traveling a long distance alone was always their focus, not to mention that there was a valuable gale beast accompanying it.
"Who are you and what are you doing in Changfeng City?" A team of city defense teams stopped Jin Ruofeng's beast cart.
Quan Yunfeng from behind immediately stepped forward and lifted the scarf covering his face, "I am Quan Yunfeng! Here are the academy's instructors Jin Ruofeng and Shi Mang!"
"Lord Beast Eater!" As a member of the city defense team, he naturally knew the Beast Eater very well. Several people hurriedly stepped forward to salute, which attracted many people around to stop and watch. The crowd continued to express their respect for the Beast Eater.
of admiration.
Jin Ruofeng and Shi Mang also got out of the beast cart at this time and showed the tokens of the City Guards to the city defense team. They did not have the tokens of Changfeng Academy yet. Fortunately, the tokens given to them by Huang Zhenyu were still there.
, this token is naturally more effective.
"Two instructors, I'm sorry. We are being ordered to inspect strange guests from far away. Please forgive me!" The city defense team members looked very polite.
"Thank you for your hard work. Is there something wrong inside the city or something happened outside the city?" The person who spoke was Quan Yunfeng. His status in Changfeng City was still very high. At least Jin Ruofeng and Shi Mang couldn't match it.
"We don't know the specifics, we are just following orders." I don't know if the city defense team members deliberately reserved it or if they really didn't know.
"Forget it, let's go to the city guard's mansion and find out!" Jin Ruofeng knew that these city defense team members didn't know much.
With the help of a city defense team member, the three people jumped into a queue and entered the city in advance. Seeing the still long waiting line outside the city, Jin Ruofeng had a premonition that King Xiaoyao might have arrived in Changfeng City, but it was just not easy to publicize it.
The area near the City Guards Mansion was as calm as ever, and there seemed to be nothing unusual. The moment the three people entered the gate of the City Guards Mansion, they felt an extremely tense atmosphere. At the gate, there were not only people guarding the gate, but also guards.
There are even two of Huang Zhenyu's bodyguards here, which seems to have been something that didn't happen before.
"Master Jin, are you back?" Jin Ruofeng has been here many times, and to some of the guards, he is considered a half-acquaintance of the city guard.
Jin Ruofeng quickly raised his hands and saluted: "Thank you for your hard work, senior brother, are you here?"
"The general is here! Do you need me to report it?" After hearing what the guard said, Jin Ruofeng concluded that Xiaoyao Wang Yuanqing should be in Changfeng City, otherwise the guard would not call Huang Zhenyu general.
"Sorry for the trouble, just say that Shi Mang and Beast Eater and I have just returned and came here to return our lives!" Jin Ruofeng used a very formal statement. After all, they were ordered to go to Feilong Canyon, and it was natural for them to come back to return their lives.
Soon, the three people saw Huang Zhenyu, and there was another person in the study who could explain everything before them, Huang Zhenbiao!
"Brother! General Huang!" The three men immediately saluted the two brothers.
"Thank you for your hard work, you three!" Huang Zhenyu looked at his brothers, and then said to Jin Ruofeng, "Thank you for your hard work on your trip to Feilong Canyon this time, Ruofeng. Zhenbiao has already told me that the prince will meet you later!"
Jin Ruofeng immediately held up his hands and said: "I dare not claim it is hard work. Your Majesty is able to come to Changfeng City because of your blessings. We just did our job. However, General Huang worked tirelessly and traveled thousands of miles further than us."
Distance!"
"By the way, did you encounter any trouble when you came back this time?" Huang Zhenyu asked.
"Trouble? What happened?" Jin Ruofeng was a little surprised by Huang Zhenyu's statement, "After we separated from General Huang, we were besieged by the Chamber of Commerce in a market town. Fortunately, we escaped without any danger, and then
We met wolf bandits in the fertile land of Three Thousand Miles, but this doesn't seem to have much to do with the prince. We killed a few wolf bandits when we went to Feilong Canyon, and their leader stopped us on the way back!"
"The leader of the wolf bandits? What kind of leader?" Huang Zhenyu asked.
"A man riding a rhinoceros beast was accompanied by a group of silver wind wolf guards. However, he did not take action. The guard leader did!"
Before Jin Ruofeng could finish speaking, he saw something was wrong with Huang Zhenyu's expression. The surprise was indescribable, and at the very least it was an expression of disbelief.
Shi Mang immediately asked, "Brother, what's the matter? Looking at you, are they not wolf bandits?"
"No!" Huang Zhenyu said with a bitter smile, "They are not only wolf thieves, but also the real leader of the wolf thieves. The guy riding the rhinoceros beast is called Teng Yinjia. He is a high-level fire warrior like the master.
Watch him all day
Riding a rhinoceros-armored beast, in fact, it was just a pretense. His real mount was a flying dragon attached to the rhinoceros-armored beast. This flying dragon was an ancient relic, and was found by Teng Yinjia from the sacred tower. It is even more powerful.
On top of the master's black panther!"
Huang Zhenyu's words shocked Jin Ruofeng. He knew that the wolf bandit leader was very strong, but he didn't expect that just one mount was enough to kill them several times. It was obvious that Teng Yinjia did not want them.
life.
"You said it was the guard leader who took action?" Huang Zhenbiao suddenly asked, "Did he hold a spear and ride the golden wolf king?"
"That's right, it was him. We fought three times and finally won half a fight by luck!" Jin Ruofeng simply told what happened.
After hearing this, Huang Zhenbiao looked at his eldest brother, and then said with some confusion: "It seems that he has indeed underestimated the enemy. In addition, your erratic changes in weapons have made him a little confused. This person is called Han Shiying, although he only has wood."
A middle-level warrior,
However, his strength is not weaker than that of a high-level warrior. The key is that his rider is the Wolf King, who can summon thousands of wind wolves to help. This is a power that makes other opponents a headache! But since the wolf thief knows Jin Ruofeng's identity,
Why do you have to come out like this?"
"Is this a good sign?" Huang Zhenyu was also a little confused about the situation. He might have made some judgments before, but now that King Xiaoyao is in Changfeng City, everything is extremely uncertain.
After waiting for a long time, a guard came to the study quietly and whispered something in Huang Zhenyu's ear. Jin Ruofeng looked at the guard curiously. He seemed to have never seen this person before.
, it seems that this is Huang Zhenyu’s secret move.
"The prince is waiting for us, let's go there together!" Huang Zhenyu said with a smile.
The residence of Xiaoyao Wang Yuanqing is in the Changfeng City Governor's Mansion, only a few hundred steps away from Huang Zhenyu's study. In an exquisitely designed garden, this was once the family residence of the Changfeng City Governor, Huang Zhenyu's family
All before
In Shangjing City, this place has always been empty. Some guards occasionally practice martial arts here. When Shangjing City was attacked some time ago, Huang Zhenyu rescued his family, but he did not place them here, but the children often came to play.
Since King Xiaoyao moved into Changfeng City some days ago, Huang Zhenyu has put most of the guard forces at hand here. Coupled with the people brought by King Xiaoyao, this place can already be described as impregnable.
"I've met the prince!" Jin Ruofeng thought about it and didn't take Quan Yunfeng to see Xiaoyao King. His greatest role was in the dark. Excessive exposure was not a good thing. He and Shi Mang came to Xiaoyao King together.
in front of.
"Very good! We meet again!" King Xiaoyao seemed very happy. He turned to Qin Zhong and said, "Qin Zhong, what do you think is the most appropriate reward for your two disciples?"
Qin Zhong smiled faintly, and then came to Jin Ruofeng: "Jin Ruofeng, you have also seen the entire situation during this period. Since the emperor massacred the five major universities, the resistance in various places is becoming increasingly prominent. In addition, he dispatched the Shenlong Guard to attack the family a few days ago.
, if he hadn’t held the key to opening the hunting season, resistance would have been surging everywhere!"
"Yes, Chief Coach, I understand all this! I don't know what you mean by this?" Jin Ruofeng already had the answer in his mind, but he still needed Qin Zhong to explain it to avoid mistakes in the future.
"This is the hunting season, and it is related to the quota of the divine tower, so everyone is trying their best to get more manpower. On the way back, you also learned about the deal between the Emperor and the Chamber of Commerce, so we must ensure that our share will not
You suffered a loss, and as a surviving disciple of Zhenyun Academy, you belong to the lineage of King Xiaoyao. You must draw more sigils in the recent period and enter the hunting season in the best condition!"
Jin Ruofeng was still a little strange: "Chief Coach, you also know my strength. Now I can only compete with fourth-level martial arts warriors. Occasionally I can defeat a strong warrior. During the hunting season, we are all powerful. I am not doing this on my own."
Are you asking for hardship?"
"You don't have to worry about this. There are very few opportunities for confrontation between the enemy and ourselves during the hunting season. Everyone is busy with their own affairs. Unless there is a dispute over a common goal, no one will waste time at other times. It is the most dangerous.
It is before the start of the hunting season. Once the list is determined, if you are unable to participate for some reason, the quota will not be changed. Do you understand?"
Jin Ruofeng finally understood that if all the people on one side participating in the hunting season were killed, they would definitely fall behind in the subsequent battle for the sacred tower. Of course, he also knew that he could not take it lightly during the hunting season.
After all, the current situation is different from the past. If the emperor or other forces want to take the opportunity to destroy other forces, the hunting season is a legitimate opportunity. The key is that the people participating in the hunting season are the most loyal candidates of the party and will never kill.
Wrong person.
"Chief coach, I want to know who is on our side?" Jin Ruofeng asked. Although this question is highly suspected of leaking secrets, since there is no reason for him to participate, otherwise he knows who his companions are, right?
Qin Zhong glanced at King Xiaoyao who was talking to Huang Zhenyu next to him, and the other party nodded gently. When Jin Ruofeng saw this list for the first time, he immediately felt that King Xiaoyao might really be at the end of his rope, but
This list is very attractive to Jin Ruofeng, because many of them are people he knows, which is very convenient for his activities during the hunting season.
