Soul Summoner

Chapter 98 A Delicate Situation

An official of a hundred households actually brought more than 30 entourages of the imperial guards. The imperial guards are directly under the emperor's direct control and only accept the emperor's dispatch. Could it be that this person is actually a member of the royal family.

A small head of the Peicheng Guards shuddered all over his body. He looked intently at the identity document, and saw the word "Jinsi" written on it. My dear, isn't Jin's surname the royal family's surname? He hurriedly took Li Si's Returning the identity documents with both hands, he respectfully gave a military salute to his superiors, and said: "I don't know that your lord is here, and you are negligent. Dare I ask you if there is anything you can do for me?"

Li Si smiled and said: "You're welcome, we're going to Dachu Pass, passing through Peicheng, and we're going to stay here for one night, please help us arrange a place to stay, brother."

The little boss was flattered to see him speak in a friendly manner, and hurriedly agreed to lead Li Si to the post station himself.

Qiaolu, the captain of the imperial guards, said in a low voice: "Your Highness, you don't have to be so polite with him, just tell him."

The little head walking in front trembled when he heard the word "His Royal Highness".

Li Si smiled and said: "Only by respecting others can you be respected by others. Why do you have to use a defiant way to gain the awe of others? What we want is not the hypocrisy of being obedient to you on the surface, but I don't know how many times I have cursed you in secret. We all work for the empire, the division of labor is different, we should respect, besides, we are all raised by our parents, we are not nobler than others, there is no harm in being polite, "

Qiao Lu responded repeatedly, and flattered a few words by the way, but he thought in his heart, you were so crazy when you were in the imperial city, you killed the soul fighter who was the confidant of the Minister of Defense as soon as you arrived in Nuoyang, and even killed the third prince's sweetheart Abducted, at this time you have become a modest gentleman again.

Probably because of Li Si's words, the arrogant imperial guards restrained a lot. Peicheng was the first stop after leaving Nuoyang. The guards who executed the military order settled in Peicheng. The little head and the waiter at the post station There are not a few of them, but this is the first time I have seen such a courteous Imperial Guard, and the service is extremely thoughtful. Many of the more than 30 Imperial Guards are used to running, so they naturally feel the hospitality. It's different, it's all about repeating what Li Si said, "Only by respecting others can you be respected by others".

After traveling to the northwest for a few days, the desolation along the way became more and more desolate. I didn’t feel it in Nuoyang and the cities near Nuoyang. The closer the place is to Dachuguan, the more it looks like the old society, with commerce withered and few people. When I asked someone, I realized that the weight empire had reached the point where people were panicking. The Great Chu Pass was jointly defended by the Yuwen Clan and the Tang Clan. , and with the advent of troubled times, they naturally tried their best to accumulate strength. Under the coercion and lure, many small clansmen chose to join one of the camps. out of court control.

The wealthy South was originally the territory of the Jin Clan and the Li Clan. Because of the alien monster disaster in Tiangui, Jin Chengwen had to abandon the South in order to protect himself. The Jin Clan all retreated to Shihu Pass and Baizhang among the seven dangerous passes in the north. Within the pass, it’s true that the northeast of the Weight Empire has all belonged to the Golden Clan of the Emperor’s family. The northeast is far away from heaven and danger, but it has caused the Yuwen Clan and the Tang Clan to become more and more powerful. Now, the northern part of the Weight Empire The layout has changed to the Three Kingdoms era. The northeast belongs to the Jin clan, the southeast belongs to the Tang clan, and the northwest region belongs to the Yuwen clan. Of course, this is the distribution of power divided by Li Si himself. This is a very dangerous situation. The Ma empire is very likely to split. The Golden Clan's territory has been stabilized, but it has also lost control of the northwest and southeast. Jin Chengwen threw himself over in this ambiguous situation, which is really not a good thing for Li Si good thing.

However, Li Sizhi was not here, and although he could see clearly along the way, he had nothing to do with himself, and he was hanging high. He had to wait until the Dachu Pass in the northwest, and he was about to leave the Weight Empire and go to the Chigu Empire in the west.

After another two days, Li Si and his party finally entered Youlan City, an important military town in Dachu Pass.

The Yuwen Clan has 50 soldiers in Ulan City, effectively curbing the offensive of alien monsters outside the pass, and the Liyang Pass in the southeast is guarded by the Tang Clan, because Liyang Pass is not infested by alien monsters for the time being, the Tang Clan is much more relaxed. And also sent a 3000 troops to support Dachuguan.

In the Yuwen Clan, there is an important person named Yuwen Bubai, who is the president of the General Guild of Soul Fighters in the Empire. Therefore, the strength of the Yuwen Clan's Soul Fighters is very impressive. Any first-level Soul Fighter Division, its strength can also be equivalent to dozens or even hundreds of ordinary soldiers.

Therefore, among the three major clans of the Weight Empire, the Yuwen Clan is the strongest. If it weren't for the alien monsters outside the Great Chu Pass to hold the Yuwen Clan, it would be hard to imagine what would happen to the Weight Empire. In the area around the Yangtze River, Xiangcheng and Huancheng are rich places. The Tang clan has become the power with the most resources. What they lack the most is soul fighters. On the other hand, Soul Fighter's treatment is very good, also because in this matter, the Tang Clan and the Yuwen Clan are hostile to each other, and the last is the Golden Clan where the emperor is. It is because of this that Jin Chengwen can be his emperor steadily, but Li Si can also guess that Jin Chengwen is right The Yuwen Clan and the Tang Clan are very fearful. If the two Clans join forces, the Golden Clan will be hard to resist. Even if they can stop it, if the empire suffers such a catastrophe, it will be swallowed by neighboring countries if it is not wiped out by alien monsters. This situation is really extremely delicate, but it also leads to a distorted balance.

Li Si and his party showed their identity documents at the gate of Ulan City, and the Ulan city guards immediately let them enter the city and placed them in the post station. After a day's rest, Li Si began to think about how to get out of Dachu Pass.

He didn’t know what was going on outside Dachu Pass. There was no internet search engine in this world. He was about to ask Qiaolu and the others to find out, when suddenly there was the sound of running footsteps outside the room, and a guard soldier shouted loudly: "Your Highness, Your Highness, something happened, something happened,"

Li Si was taken aback. Could it be that the Great Chu Pass was not guarded.

The Imperial Guard soldier was called Chen Dongji. When he ran to the door of Li Si's room, he staggered and nearly fell down. His eyes were blood red, his cheekbones were swollen like steamed buns, his face was deformed, and his body was covered in mud and tattered.

Li Si said in a deep voice, "What happened?"

Chen Dongji panted heavily, and said in a rustling voice: "Your Highness, our people were beaten on the street, and the opponent has a soul fighter,"
