The lord is looking at me

Chapter 709 Hexi City

With Hexi's natural advantages, some merchants like to conduct business here. After all, doing business near the water source is more effective.

And the disaster in Hexi this time is also because of this. Since a few months ago, the big river surrounding Hexi has always been flooded frequently, submerging everything along the edge of the city, and now there are still developments in the city. trend.

If this continues, this Hexi will slowly be submerged and disappear.

Moreover, the floods came very strangely, about three times a day, and they were quite regular. It's not that the city lord sent people to investigate, but the people they sent have heard nothing.

According to some people who live near the river, when they saw the big water coming, they could faintly see a huge black shadow appearing in it. What Eudemons.

And this disaster was also caused by that Eudemons.

"This is Hexi!" Although the sky was dark at this time, it did not prevent Wei Yue from enjoying the beauty of the river.

The glowing water seems to reflect the appearance of Hexi City, giving people a dreamlike feeling, as if Hexi City is just a small city located on the water.

Obviously this is not the border, but there is such a big river that can lead to nearby towns, which is actually a good place.

"Let's go." Looking at the gate in the distance, Yin Xuan put down the curtain in his hand and began to give instructions.

The gates of Hexi City will be closed when the time comes, and they have to catch up.

"Yes." Hearing the order from the carriage, Long Yi naturally knew that it was time to hurry up.

This Hexi City is different from other small towns, because only the four surrounding bridges can lead to it, so when the time comes, the city gate will be closed with the sunset. Can't change.

While there is still some peripheral vision at this time, they have to go in quickly.

"This doesn't look like a place where floods occur at all!" Wei Yue lay on the window next to the carriage, closed her eyes in enjoyment, and felt the cold wind rippling from the big river.

This place is really nice.

Seeing her enjoyment, the corners of Yin Xuan's eyes twitched slightly. This little cat still knows how to live with the situation. On the surface, this place looks like this, quiet and indifferent, but when the flood occurs, it's like that again. So horrible.

"Boom!" Just as the group of people were about to cross the bridge, there was a sudden loud noise from around the bridge.

The sound was loud, and one could clearly feel the coercion from the other side of the big river. Accompanied by the splash of water all over the sky, people couldn't see the situation ahead at all.

However, the horses brought out by everyone this time are also well-trained. Even though the environment is relatively harsh at this time, they are still extremely calm, and it seems that they are not affected by the splashes flying around.

"There are monsters in the water." Because Wei Yue was lying by the window just now, she saw a black shadow appearing in the whirlpool in the distance at a glance.

Although the sky began to darken slowly at this time, the black shadow gave people a really bad feeling, and she really remembered it deeply.

"Enter the city." Seeing her surprised look, Yin Xuan stepped forward and stroked her hair, "Don't worry, I'm here."

"Yes." Although water splashes were constantly flying around at this time, Long Yi and the others were also very calm, each looked at their own things, and continued to move forward in an orderly manner.

In order to prevent those water splashes from affecting the carriage, Yin Xuan also secretly used his soul power to set up an enchantment around their carriage, and with their actions, the enchantment also shifted.

Because of this, when the group of people arrived at the city gate, they were not affected much. At this time, there were already many city guards standing at the city gate. When they saw someone coming across the bridge, they were really shocked. Somewhat surprised.

"Alive, still alive." I thought that the people on the bridge would be involved in the sudden flood, but I didn't expect them to come alive.

Looking at the excited city guards in front of him at this time, Long Yi frowned slightly, everyone can only act in a low-key manner when they come out this time, and in many things they still have to be worthy of their disguised identities at this time.

"It's great to see you all. We thought we wouldn't come here alive. Fortunately, our horses are all well-trained, and they can bring us here safely." Compared to Long Yi's hesitation, the other side Long Er greeted him enthusiastically, and tried his best to play his own identity.

Seeing the group of people in front dressed as merchants, the guards of the city naturally looked a lot more kindly. After all, they lived on these merchants in Hexi City, so they would naturally be much kinder to them.

Unlike other places where there is a big prejudice against merchants, and some people even think that they are just rich and useless people, this Hexi City is the opposite. For any merchants who come here to do business, everyone in the city is Very enthusiastic about it.

"It's good to come back alive. Enter the city quickly, the city gate will be closed later." Naturally, the city guards saw the carts of goods following the other party, and immediately felt more cordial.

"Thank you." Seeing that the city guards let them go so easily, Long Er secretly gave them a few silver coins. They will inevitably have to deal with these city guards when they enter the city this time, so they should do something in advance.

Everyone in Hexi City knows that they will check some unfamiliar faces more strictly, so this still needs to be dealt with.

"Go in quickly." Those city guards were also very useful to this kind of small favor, and they all gave way to let them go.

Seeing that they were so polite, everyone naturally wouldn't be polite, and entered the city directly before the city gate was about to close.

Outside Hexi City, the big river was surging wantonly, and from time to time there were huge waves crashing towards the city gate, but many of them were blocked by the barrier on the city gate.

The flood came too fast this time, the number of soul masters in the city is limited, and the barriers that can be planted are also limited. Therefore, everyone can only care about the west, but can't care about the east, and it is inevitable that some places will be submerged.

But fortunately, the flood didn't last long, giving everyone some time to breathe.

After Wei Yue and his party entered the city, they quickly found an inn to stay. The people in the city seemed to have a high opinion of the merchants. When they arrived at the inn, Xiao Er stepped forward to help take care of the goods.

"This Hexi City is really lively!" Looking at the bustling crowd on the street, Wei Yue couldn't imagine that this is the place where the flood happened.
