Not long after, the two people from the business group came over again, but this time they brought three black goats as gifts to Zhang Chi and the others.
Mr. Ji was polite to them, but seeing how enthusiastic they were, he could only accept it. The three black goats were actually food for the Wind Wolf. These people from Storm City respected the Wind Wolf very much, and even regarded it as their own.
A kind of totem is worshiping. Seeing that Zhang Chi and the other two people can control the wind wolf, they have awe of them.
Chu Jianghe gave the three black goats to the three wind wolves, and Lightning took the lead in carrying the goats to Zhang Chi.
Everyone in the business group saw in their eyes and secretly admired that the Gale Wolf respected Zhang Chi so much that they gave him food first to enjoy. In fact, the truth was that the Gale Wolf wanted to eat barbecue.
Immortal Zhang glared at Lightning, and after a meal of barbecue, this guy's mouth was so naughty that he really couldn't tolerate it. Lightning saw Zhang Chi glaring at him and knew that Zhang Chi was not in the mood to help him barbecue, so he could only take the goat and enjoy it.
.
The black-faced man said: "I would like to ask, where are the three of you going?"
Mr. Ji said: "We are going to the City of Light."
The black-faced man said: "What a coincidence, we are going there too." His name is Huang Qitai, he is the bodyguard of the royal business group and escorts the business group to the City of Light.
Zhang Chi listened to him talking about the Royal Merchant Group, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Who is the emperor of your Royal Merchant Group?"
Huang Qitai said: "Yellow yellow."
Zhang Chi and Mr. Ji looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh. They had misunderstood just now and thought that the Royal Merchant Group of Storm City was the Huang family after they had been doing this for a long time.
Huang Qitai was an enthusiastic person and offered to go with them. Mr. Ji thought it would be no harm to them, so he agreed after thanking him.
Although the Gale Wolf knows the roads, they are new to Netherworld Ruins and are not familiar with everything here. These people from the business group have traveled all over the country and have learned a lot. If they choose to go with them, they can get a lot of news.
Mr. Ji and Huang Qitai walked side by side at the end of the team, and Zhang Chi and Chu Jianghe followed behind. They heard the two chatting and laughing, and burst into hearty laughter from time to time. Chu Jianghe whispered to Zhang Chi: "Ji Chang is an old cunning guy. We want to
The only way to leave is through him."
Zhang Chi said: "He is not a fool and will not want to stay here for the rest of his life."
Chu Jianghe said: "Don't forget, he once sent many people in with his own hands. There are many enemies of his here."
Zhang Chi said: "Even if someone really wants to kill him, we have to keep him."
Chu Jianghe gritted his teeth and said: "This old bastard, we have been harmed by him." He hated Ji Chang in his heart, but he still relied on him.
Zhang Chi said: "He is not the real culprit who harmed us." After being imprisoned in Shenjing for a month, Zhang Chi had already figured out the ins and outs of this matter. The planner could only be one of An Chongguang and Qu Yangming. Who is still unknown?
Hard to say.
Chu Jianghe said: "Mi Xiaobai has always been kind to you, why do you want to harm you?"
Zhang Chi said: "There seems to be no evidence, but I suspect An Chongguang is the real murderer."
Chu Jianghe actually suspected that there was something wrong with An Chongguang. He sighed and said, "I really can't understand why he would point his gun at me when he has a close relationship with my father."
Zhang Chi said: "Your father is such a powerful person, can't you see that there is something wrong with it?"
Chu Jianghe pursed his lips. It had been more than a month since the accident. He didn't know what bad things Bai Yunsheng and his son would do if they pretended to be them. He began to worry about his father.
Because it has entered the flower season, the day and night are bright. After walking out of the ice and snow, there is finally color in the field of vision. From the business group, I know that there are changes between day and night. The sky is blue during the day, and turns cyan at night. There are no clouds during the day.
Clouds only gather at night, and the characteristic here is that all rain, snow and hail occur at night. At the transition between day and night, there will be colorful lights flashing in the sky. There is no concept of the sun in Netherworld Ruins, but there is a moon. Every fifteenth day
, a red moon appeared in the sky.
The City of Light stands on Guangming Mountain, hence the name of the city. There are four city gates leading to the City of Light. Each gate has a five-mile-long bridge that connects to the outside world. Under the bridge is an abyss, where enemy situations occur.
When the time comes, the middle section of the bridge can be raised. The city wall is high and wide, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The city is surrounded by towering arrow towers. Elite archers are always stationed in the arrow towers. One man can guard the gate and no one can open it.
Entering the city from the south gate with the business group, there was strict inspection at the city gate. Mr. Ji slowed down, came to the side of his two companions, and whispered: "We have no identity. According to the rules here, we cannot enter the city without a pass."
"
Zhang Chi said: "What should we do?"
Mr. Ji smiled slightly. He took out three tungsten iron nameplates and handed two of them to Zhang Chi and Chu Jianghe respectively. He had accompanied the business group all the way and understood many of the tricks. These three nameplates are
The passes were all forged secretly by Mr. Ji.
Mr. Ji said: "The three of us will go in separately. You go first. I will go in with the business group."
Zhang Chi said: "You want us to take the lead and arrest us first if we are exposed."
Mr. Ji smiled and said: "You are really suspicious. In that case, I will take the lead."
Zhang Chi had already urged the Gale Wolf to head towards the city gate. Originally, he was worried that riding the Gale Wolf would attract attention, but when he came outside the city, he found that there were many people riding horses, bulls, and wolves, and even more awesome ones.
The cool thing is that there is also a bear riding one, and it feels like people and animals in the Netherworld get along very harmoniously.
Zhang Chi handed his pass to the guard at the gate. The guard checked his nameplate, which had Zhang Chi's real name engraved on it. The guard looked up and saw that Zhang Chi had successfully let him through. Chu Jianghe then used a fake pass to get in.
The two of them were waiting for Mr. Ji inside. Mr. Ji mixed with the business group and entered the city. They thought there would be no problems, but suddenly they saw several gatekeepers surrounding the business group, and Lao Ji was also removed.
The wolf was pulled off its back. The Gale Wolf didn't have any loyalty to Lao Ji. When it encountered danger, it turned around and ran away. Fortunately, the guards had no time to take care of it and restrained Lao Ji first.
Zhang Chi and Chu Jianghe saw that the situation was not going well, so they quickly led the Gale Wolf into the crowd. It was not that they were unloyal, but they didn't know the situation when they first arrived in your area. They rushed to rescue Ji Chang to no avail, and might even kill them.
Involve yourself in it.
After a while, I saw Ji Chang and the people from the business group being tied up and locked in a prison car. Dozens of guards escorted them to the inner city. It was the business group that was in trouble. Lao Ji was mixed up with the people from the business group.
So he was mistaken for being a member of the Huang family business group and was captured together. Now he couldn't argue and desperately winked at the two people in the crowd for help.
Zhang Chi was worried that the business group would reveal the whereabouts of the two of them, so he quickly called Chu Jianghe to leave the scene.
The two of them first found a pawn shop and sold some of the trophies they got from the Black Knight in exchange for money. No matter where they were, it would be difficult to survive without money.
With money in their pocket, the next step was to find a place to stay. They found an inn near the gate of Guangming City and stayed. After settling in, they went to the city to inquire about information. The two of them had no sources of information, so they came to
There is a restaurant on the main street of the City of Light. People come and go in the restaurant and tea shop, and it is also a place where gossips are flying everywhere.
The currency here is fine gold, which varies in size and amount. Fine gold is obviously a bad material in Netherworld Ruins. Immortal Zhang played with the gold coins in his hands. They just sold some loot and the gold coins they got were enough for them.
Month's living expenses.
Chu Jianghe held the menu and studied it. He had difficulty choosing. It took him ten minutes to choose the dishes before ordering them. The two listened intently, but did not hear any useful information. Chu Jianghe said: "It feels like it suddenly came.
Just like in ancient times."
Zhang Chi said: "This is not ancient times, more like the demon world. The Netherworld Ruins, which is rich in spiritual energy, at least looks peaceful on the surface."
"Xianghe? I don't think so. Lao Ji was arrested as soon as he entered the city. Do you think it's because of the cycle of karma and retribution? He used to be the warden, and when he got here, he immediately became a prisoner. The people he offended in the past were too many.
too much."
Zhang Chi said: "They must have been implicated by the merchant group. If we hadn't come in first, we might have been in trouble." Unintentionally looking out the window, he saw a cavalry team passing by on the road, and the one at the front was a
The heroic female general was wearing black leather armor and had short hair like a man. The female general seemed to hear the movement behind her and turned around to look back.
Zhang Chi saw her face clearly now and was stunned because the female general looked exactly like Qin Luzhu. Zhang Chi exclaimed: "Look, Qin Luzhu!"
When Chu Jianghe heard what he said, he quickly got up and looked out the window. When Chu Jianghe looked, the female general had already turned around and led the cavalry away. Zhang Chi didn't bother to eat, so he got up and rushed out of the restaurant to chase after him. The wind was blowing from both sides.
The wolves are resting in the inn, so they can only rely on two legs.
Chu Jianghe followed him and ran out. When the two of them came outside, they found that the cavalry team had disappeared on the street.
Chu Jianghe didn't see Qin Luzhu with his own eyes. He thought it was impossible. How could Qin Luzhu go to Netherworld Ruins? Zhang Chi must have seen it wrong. Zhang Chi came to the fruit stall on the roadside and asked the hawker: "Brother,
Do you recognize the team that just passed by?"
The vendor stretched out his hand, obviously wanting money.
Zhang Chi handed him a gold coin, and the vendor took it and said, "She is the only female general among the five tiger generals in Guangming City, General Feifeng."
"What's her name?"
The hawker stretched out his hand again, asked for a gold coin and said, "Her name is Feifeng."
Immortal Zhang almost cursed, this vendor is really not a good guy, he actually made fun of me.
"Last name?"
The hawker was very realistic. As long as he answered the question, he had to see the money. After Zhang Chi gave him the money, he said: "My surname is Qin!"
After Zhang Chi and Chu Jianghe heard this, they both looked at each other. Now Chu Jianghe believed that Zhang Chi was right. If General Feifeng was Qin Luzhu, then they would have an acquaintance. They would have to leave here and return to the past world.
There is great hope.
After giving the hawker some more gold coins, he asked where General Feifeng lived.
The two of them didn't even bother to eat, so they went directly to the lord's mansion, where General Feifeng lived. In fact, Chu Jianghe had always been secretly in love with Qin Luzhu. Thinking of meeting Qin Luzhu soon, he felt excited and uneasy at the same time.
Only after they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion did they realize that it was not easy to meet General Feifeng. Netherworld Ruins had a strict hierarchy and General Feifeng belonged to the powerful class. They were now ordinary civilians. If civilians wanted to enter the City Lord's Mansion to see General Feifeng, they had to go through the gatekeeper first.
In this level of warrior, if you don't spend some money on it, I won't even send you a greeting card.
The two could only spend money to bribe the gatekeeper warriors, but Zhang Daxian finally persuaded the other party to help them send a greeting card to General Feifeng.
Chu Jianghe wrote their names on the greeting card and drew his own portrait on it. The gatekeeper told them to go back and wait for the news tomorrow.
On the way back, Chu Jianghe sighed: "The lord of the City of Light is named Qin. Do you think Netherworld Ruins is the private land of their Qin family?"
Immortal Zhang didn't say anything. In fact, he began to think so in his heart. Mr. Qin used to be the director of the Mysterious Bureau. Of course he knew about the sinkhole. Everything would come to light after meeting Qin Luzhu.
The two made inquiries and finally found out the whereabouts of Ji Chang. The Huang family business group in Storm City was suspected of transporting contraband, so the entire business group was taken down. Because Lao Ji mixed with the business group, he was regarded as a member of the business group.
He was temporarily imprisoned. However, he was not the main criminal and could be released as long as he paid a sum of money.
The money was five thousand gold coins. The total money the two of them had was only five hundred gold coins. It was not easy to collect five thousand gold coins, so I spent fifty gold coins to go in and visit Lao Ji.
Mr. Ji was led limping in front of them by the guards. His face was bruised and bruised. He was beaten up when he was imprisoned. This is also the rule of the prison. The prisoner should be beaten first and then punished.
With prestige, it will be much easier to ask for money.
When Lao Ji saw the two of them, he complained endlessly: "What an unforeseen disaster. If I had known that the business group was transporting contraband, I would have gone with you." In fact, he was overly cautious, fearing that his forged pass would be exposed and the two of them would be exposed.
The plan is to explore the way first.
Chu Jianghe said: "You have been in bad luck recently. If you come with us, we might also be implicated."
Zhang Chi introduced the situation to Lao Ji and told him to face reality. The condition for his release was five thousand gold coins. If he couldn't raise the money, Lao Ji could only stay in prison for one year.
Ji Changdao: "Let alone a year, I can't stay for even a day. From the cell boss to the jailer, everyone here is corrupt. They have blocked my spiritual power and threatened me that if I don't get the money out as soon as possible, I will die."
In prison, you two think of a way to get me out of here as soon as possible."
Zhang Chi said: "What can I do? The total money we have now is only five hundred gold coins, which is too big a difference." The only way he can think of now is to see Qin Luzhu as soon as possible.
Lu Zhu's current so-called identity as General Feifeng will definitely be able to help get Ji Chang out.
Ji Chang said: "The Gale Wolf is very valuable. You can sell a Gale Wolf so that you can raise enough ransom to release me."
Zhang Chi looked at Ji Chang with disdain. This old Ji is a bit shameless. In order to get out of here as soon as possible, he actually came up with the idea of Wind Wolf. He has no clue in his heart. His status in his heart is really not as good as that of Wind Wolf.
.
"I heard that there is an Adventurer's Guild in the city. You can go to the Guild to accept tasks, and if you make money, you can rescue me." Ji Chang made another plan after his plan failed.
Chu Jianghe said: "You know so much."
Ji Chang said: "I heard that too."
"I heard?" Zhang Chi and Chu Jianghe said in unison, and they both laughed at the same time.
Ji Chang saw the expressions of the two men and knew that they did not trust him. Under the current situation, he could only rely on these two companions. If they ignored them, he might be tortured to death. He sighed.
Said: "The three of us must help each other if we want to go back alive."
Zhang Chi said: "Do you think we can still go back alive?"
"Yes! I believe it all depends on man-made efforts!" Ji Chang was willing to give up his old face in order to escape. If he said there was no hope, the two of them would definitely think that he had lost the value of their use. Who would still work hard for him?
