C2361 Dongning County
After travelling for about an hour, they finally arrived at the true road.
The reason why he said that was because even though the path that they had walked before was very wide, it was actually a path that was formed by the number of times they had walked before.
However, the road in front of them right now was a path that had been completely built.
From Jiang Ting's line of sight, the road was roughly five zhang wide. It was built against the mountain, and he could vaguely see that the ground was paved with broken stones. There was even some soil that was hidden in the cracks of the rocks, and after being soaked and solidified by the rain …
The ground wasn't as smooth as a mirror, but if there were carriages or things like that, if a few pieces of beast skins were placed inside the carriages, it would be hard to find any trembling within.
Most importantly, Jiang Ting sensed a faint power of faith on the road … Not by nature, but by some means.
As for the effects, he didn't know.
Wang Fugui looked a little more relaxed, "We've reached the official road. We can relax a little more in the upcoming journey."
Chai Ying stared at the road before her and pretended to be worried. "Village Chief, this road is built according to the mountains. Ergou and the others don't have any weapons or herbs from the hunting team. What if they encounter some ferocious beasts?"
Evidently, she was the same as Jiang Ting and could tell that there was something wrong with the road.
Wang Fugui stroked his beard and laughed, "Erya, since you haven't been out of the village before, you don't know that this is an official road, it is said that it was personally built by the masters of the Immortal Dynasty. It contains the power of many lords, the evil monsters are unable to get into the official road, and no robbers would dare to commit murder on the official road."
Chai Ying looked surprised. "Why?"
Wang Fugui shook his head, "I'm not sure about that, but I heard that if someone dares to commit murder on the public road, they will definitely be caught by the county's old masters and then sent to capture them."
The corner of Jiang Ting's and Chai Ying's mouths twitched … The Lord of the Left said 'old master'. Only the heavens knew who this Wang Fugui was referring to.
However, they didn't inquire further.
On the contrary, Chai Ying slowly approached Jiang Ting and whispered, "If he isn't lying, then the Grand Development Immortal Dynasty really does have some tricks up its sleeves. They can monitor the entire world with just a single road."
"Supervising the world …" Jiang Ting's expression became strange, but he didn't say anything.
As far as he was concerned, even the shrieking little Monarch Cat of the Azure Sun Mountain Range wouldn't have been able to stop him with the weak power of faith on the official road if he truly wanted to rush into the official road.
However... When the Grand Development Immortal Dynasty suppressed the world, the existence of faith was only deterrence.
Those who have brains and ability, those who don't have the guts to charge into the main path, those who don't have brains and are unable to charge into the main path, there are definitely flaws here. The Grand Development Immortal Dynasty did indeed have a few tricks up its sleeves.
The group of people were running faster and faster on the road.
… ….
Noon.
The group of people arrived at a certain location. In front of a city?
It should be a city, right?
From Jiang Ting's point of view, the so-called city in front of him was just some large village surrounded by piles of stones.
At the very least, Jiang Ting had never seen a city in such dire straits.
Although Jiang Ting and Chai Ying looked very shabby, so shabby that they were too lazy to describe it, in the eyes of the other villagers, Dongning County was extremely majestic.
The city walls, for example, had the height of several people superimposed on them, and from time to time, some soldiers could be seen walking on top of them.
It was also said that the people inside the city were the worst off. They were all dressed in coarse hemp like Wang Fugui, and some of them were even dressed in luxurious silk.
As for the city gate … Although it was called a city gate, in Jiang Ting's eyes, it was only the first gate with a checkpoint.0
In front of the iron gate, there were many people standing in line to enter the city. The soldiers guarding the gates were inspecting something.
Wang Fugui trembled as he got down from Wang Gao's body. He then tidied up his coarse hemp clothes, with his head held high and his chest held high as he walked in front of the group. Then … Start lining up.
On the other hand, Jiang Ting and Chai Ying were standing in the group very quietly, waiting to enter the city.
As for what was in the county, he could not see it for the time being. He would only know when he entered the city.
As the people in line entered the city, it was soon Jiang Ting's turn.
One of them glanced at the team coldly and asked coldly, "From the looks of your clothes, which village are you from?"
Wang Fugui quickly stepped forward, "Reporting to my lord, we are from Peace Village."
And then, with great care, he retrieved a document from his bosom … It should be a document, right? It looks like it contains some paper.
The soldiers inspected the place for a while before asking, "Are they all from Peace Village?"
Wang Fugui smiled apologetically, "They're all villagers."
The guard didn't ask any further, "I guess you guys are lucky that nothing has happened around the city recently. I'm too lazy to check on you guys one by one, you guys can go in … Remember not to cause trouble. "
"Thank you, thank you." Wang Fugui laughed apologetically a few more times, and then turned his head to signal to the rest.
After which, they all entered the city.
After they entered the city, the soldier began to inspect the others.
However, Jiang Ting and Chai Ying did not care about this anymore. They followed the group and already passed through the first big iron gate, entering Dongning County.
He glanced around … This city was very desolate.
Of course, that was from their point of view … In reality, with Wang Dong and the others' line of sight, this county could be said to be extremely lively.
With a glance, he could see that there were people everywhere. There were also many shops nearby … There were only a hundred or so people in their Peace Village, but here, simply based on what they could see, there were hundreds of people in the surrounding streets and shops.
Compared to the Wang Family Village, this place seemed like an immortal realm.
After looking for a while with a hint of yearning, Wang Dong asked, "Village Head, where are we going next?"
Wang Fugui smiled, "During this half a year of hunting, we've lost a lot of iron grade arrows and other things, so we need to replenish them. I'll go order some iron grade weapons, and coincidentally, we have a lot of meat left in the village, when they deliver the iron grade equipment to us, they'll take it with them, so we don't have to work too hard." "Take the rest of the people around you and broaden your horizons. Later, you will go to the county magistrate's meeting."
"Yes." Wang Gao nodded his head vigorously.
Then, Wang Fugui left first.
Wang Dong turned around and said, "Brothers, let's take a look at Dongning County. The last time was more than half a year ago …"
"Is this Dongning County? Compared to our Peace Village … "Ugh."
"San Gouzi, quickly lead the way. Let me see how the girls in this county are different from those in the village. You said before that there was some Ten Thousand Flowers House, so as long as you pay …"
"Sigh, it's a pity that we don't have money. Otherwise … "I can only open my eyes."
"Keep your voices down, Erya is a girl!"
