Chapter 25 Qingfeng City

inside the house.

Li Baozheng looked at the Taoist robe in the pothole, and a smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"He is really a cautious person. Maybe he can really make a name for himself in Qingfeng County. If he can survive the evil of Yin and Yang..."

Li Baozheng shook his head, then looked around again, and found that he did not see the token he threw to Ding Yi. He smiled and said to himself:

"Be careful after all, but the more you do this, the more you will take my token with you, hehe..."

..

What Li Baozheng didn't know was that there was a pair of eyes staring at him in a dilapidated hut opposite this hut.

Ding Yi stood behind the broken window, leaning slightly sideways and watching Li Baozheng enter the house. There was no change in his expression, he just waited quietly.

After a while, Li Baozheng hurried out of the house and left towards the outside of the village.

But Ding Yi did not come out in a hurry, but continued to wait in the house for a while. It was not until about an hour later that he climbed out of the bedroom window and left quietly in the opposite direction to Li Baozheng.

"It seems that Li Baozheng is not a flesh-and-blood person, otherwise he wouldn't be so interested in Taoist robes."

Ding Yi walked, thinking in his heart.

"Let's take a look when we get to Qingfeng County, but we still have to be careful."

After leaving the village, Ding Yi went back to the official road. He opened the quicksand map and checked the direction again before continuing to walk along the official road.

If Li Baozheng didn't lie, then Ding Yi estimated his speed at the moment and should arrive in Qingfeng County in about two and a half days.

"It seems that the ruling class here still divides the management area into county levels, but they just don't know what the situation is there."

Along the way, Ding Yi wondered about the situation in Qingfeng County from time to time, but every time he thought of the experience in Xiaotan Village, he felt worried.

There are only two reasons why the ruling class allows such evil and chaos to occur within the scope of its power management.

The first reason is that what happened in Xiaotan Village was their acquiescence. There was a secret agreement between Flesh and Flesh Guan and the top management of Qingfeng County. Even the management of Qingfeng County was involved in this matter.

However, Li Baozheng claimed that he was from the Supervision Department of Qingfeng County, and his attitude towards the concept of flesh and blood was not cooperative. It seems that this reason is untenable.

The second reason is that Qingfeng County is already in chaos and too busy to take care of itself that it has no time to care about the affairs of a small village more than a hundred miles away.

From this point of view, it seems that the second reason is more reliable, and this is also the reason why Ding Yi has always been uneasy.

"I hope it won't be too bad over there, at least, it won't be worse than the one in Xiaotan Village..."

Thinking of this, Ding Yi couldn't help but stop, picked up the gourd, uncorked the bottle, drank a few large sips of water, looked up at the scorching sun high in the sky, and then wiped it with some helplessness. Wiping the sweat from my forehead, I thought to myself:

"It would be nice to have a car, but unfortunately, the car has too many parts and the assembly is too complicated to start with. Otherwise, we can try to strengthen one at a low cost."

Shaking his head in a self-deprecating manner, Ding Yi put away the gourd and continued walking along the official road.

Ding Yi didn't encounter anything else on the road after that. On the morning of the third day, he even noticed scattered passers-by starting to appear on the official road.

This discovery surprised Ding Yi. You know, except for Li Baozheng, Ding Yi has not seen anyone these days. He even suspected that he had come to a world similar to the end of the world, otherwise why would he be everywhere? A deserted village with not even a soul to be seen?

However, Ding Yi was excited, but he did not strike up a conversation with those people rashly. After all, those people seemed to be in a hurry, and their faces were sallow, so their eyes still had a human look, otherwise Ding Yi would have thought that he was in a hurry again. What I saw were the villagers of Xiaotan Village.

In this way, as he walked forward, Ding Yi saw more and more pedestrians, and even groups of people and carriages began to appear. This made Ding Yi understand that he was probably getting closer to Qingfeng County.

Finally, as evening approached, a majestic giant city appeared in Ding Yi's sight.

"Hey, so big? Is this the county seat?"

Ding Yi looked at the city in front of him in disbelief.

After all, a city with complete city walls is still very impactful to a modern person who has just traveled through it.

At this moment, even though the sun is about to set, there is still an endless stream of people going in and out of the city gate. This is completely different from the cold Xiaotan Village.

"It doesn't look like you have too much time to take care of yourself, right?"

Ding Yi felt a little confused when he saw this, but as the sky was getting dark, entering the city quickly was the most important thing at the moment.

Thinking of this, Ding Yi quickened his pace and finally arrived in front of the city gate half an hour later.

When he arrived at the foot of the city, Ding Yi truly felt the majesty of the city in front of him. The city wall, which was tens of meters high, was like a chasm rising from the ground, dividing the back and front of the city wall into two worlds.

Directly above the city gate, there were three large characters carved in stone, but Ding Yi recognized them. These were exactly the "Qingfeng County" Li Baozheng said!

But it is hard to imagine why the city wall in Qingfeng County was built so high to prevent it. Is it the martial artist Li Baozheng said? Or the Flesh Sect?

Ding Yi suppressed all the doubts in his heart. There were still many things that he needed to explore in this world, but it was not the time to think about these things yet.

Everyone entering the city lined up and entered through the side door next to the main city gate.

Soldiers in armor were stationed on both sides of the side door. They stood tall and straight, with cold eyes. They looked full of energy and had an invisible power, which was completely different from the people Ding Yi saw along the way.

Under their gaze, none of the people queuing up to enter the city dared to make a loud noise. They all had their heads drooped, as if they were refugees who had made a mistake.

Seeing this, Ding Yi followed the others and walked towards the city with his head shrunken. He thought he would enter the city smoothly, but he didn't expect that when it was his turn to enter the city, he suddenly felt a strong wind coming from his ears, and then A gleaming spear lay in front of him, causing him to raise his head in surprise.

"You don't look like you're from here? Where are you from?"

Looking along the barrel of the spear, I saw a guard holding one hand in one hand, staring at Ding Yi with both eyes, and shouted loudly.

"Fuck, what kind of look is this, so many people can tell that I'm not from here??"

After hearing this, Ding Yi felt that he was a little unlucky. Although he was really a migrant, he wouldn't have been discovered so quickly, right?

"Um, I'm from out of town..."

Ding Yi said quickly.

"Do you have a letter of recommendation!?"

The guard continued to ask.

"without..."

“Go and register over there!!”

The guard pointed towards a small shed at the city gate.

Ding Yi looked in the direction pointed by the guard and saw a stage in a temporary hut. Behind the stage was a thin old man sitting, with a thick book in front of him. For registration.

"Go right now, go right now."

Ding Yi quickly said to the guard, and then trotted towards the small shed.

The old man in the shed was dozing with his head down. Suddenly he heard someone calling him. When he raised his head and opened his eyes, he found that it was a young man who had come to the shed at some point.

"My husband, I need to register when I enter the city."

Ding Yi looked at the old man whose eyes were a little distracted and said.

"Registration, right? Oh, he's from out of town."

As the old man spoke, he flipped through the account books on the table, picked up a brush and dipped it in ink.

"Which state are you from?"

"Uh... I can't remember, I, I have some amnesia..."

Ding Yi pointed to his head.

"Haha, if you can escape, you are lucky. Losing your memory is actually a good thing."

The old man chuckled, and then started writing on the paper casually.

"Name?"

"Ding...Ding Hai."

"age."

"twenty three"

"You are so young. I was as energetic as you more than ten years ago."

The old man chuckled.

Ding Yi didn't hear the weirdness in the old man's words, and just asked:

"Old man, will I have a place to stay after I enter the city? I have money."

"Well, there is no shortage of places to live. Someone will show you the way when the time comes. Also, find a way to enter the inner city as soon as possible and don't miss the life in the outer city."

The old man suddenly looked up at Ding Yi, with a meaningful smile on his face.
