Dian Wei: "That being the case, it stands to reason that even if someone else steals the secret book and doesn't have a matching bloodline, no matter how hard you practice, you won't be able to compete with the children of the Shangyang family. Therefore, the Shangyang family doesn't need to worry too much, right?"

Old Man Zheng chuckled twice: "That being said, this may be the fact, but having the foundation of a family stolen away is a great shame and humiliation. It is strange that the Shangyang Family does not go on a killing spree."

Dian Wei understood.

Stealing secrets is not very harmful, but extremely humiliating!

The Shangyang Family is offended! This is it!

Go all the way...

By the afternoon.

Dian Wei raised his head and looked up. In front of his sight, where the official roads spread, a majestic city appeared.

"We're finally here! Xiaowei, that's Shangyang City!" Old Man Zheng shouted with a flash of his eyes.

This was Dianwei's first time seeing the giant city, so he naturally wanted to take a closer look.

However, as Dian Wei continued to walk towards the giant city, he realized that something was wrong. Shangyang City seemed to be astonishingly big!

In the distance, the tall city wall rises from the ground. A visual inspection shows that it is at least sixty meters high.

"The entire Shangyang City was built based on the terrain, with the mountain as its back. There is a circular city wall in front of the mountain, which is twenty feet high. The straight-line length of the 'city area' between the mountain and the circular city wall is twenty-eight thousand feet."

Old Man Zheng sighed: "Compared to Shangyang City, Cangtong Town is just a sesame seed, not worth mentioning."

"Twenty-eight thousand feet..."

Dian Wei estimated in his mind that the straight-line length of the city was more than 80 kilometers. Even if the horse was running at full speed, it would take an hour to reach the end.

At this moment, he finally had a more intuitive concept of "Giant City".

The long escort arrived at the 66-meter-high city wall, and they had to raise their necks to see the top of the city wall.

It's too high!

At this moment, although it was still broad daylight, the city gate was closed and the suspension bridge on the moat was raised.

This posture seems to be in a wartime state.

Old Man Zheng looked at it, held up his hands, and shouted at the city gate: "Zheng Mao from Cangtong Town has been ordered to escort the food arriving. Please open the city gate to let us go."

As soon as these words came out.

A small opening suddenly opened on the city gate, and someone was looking inside.

Not long after, the suspension bridge lowered and the city gate slowly opened.

A group of heavily armed city defenders wearing armor and helmets ran out in neat steps.

Dian Wei's heart trembled slightly.

He had a vague feeling that these city defenders were all warriors, and their blood power seemed to be at the second or third level.

What is striking is that the armor on the defenders is made of unknown materials. It barely reflects light in the sun, giving people an indestructible and heavy feeling.

"This layer of armor looks like a turtle shell."

Dian Wei glanced around, looking for weaknesses in the armor. The more he looked, the more surprised he became, because these armors came in complete sets, from gloves to kneepads, and there were almost no weaknesses, at least no obvious weaknesses.

So, if he fights against these city defenders, he can only cut them hard. If he can't cut through the armor, it will be dangerous.

At this time, a burly city guard came forward, holding a dark, leopard-like beast in his hand, and laughed and said: "Old Zheng, you are fine."

Old Man Zheng cupped his hands and said, "Brother, congratulations to Gaosheng. You have finally taken the position of city defender as you wished." Then, he pulled Dian Wei over and said, "This is my apprentice Dian Wei. In the future, he will often accompany me to escort food. Please

Take care of me, Xiaowei, this is General Shangyangjiu."

"Meet the general." Dian Wei saluted quickly.

Shangyang Jiuxu raised his hand, a look of pride appeared on his face, and he laughed and said: "Hey, what a bullshit general, I'm just a gatekeeper."

After that, he touched the black panther, loosened the rope, and said, "Xiao Hei, let's get to work."

The black panther stepped forward.

Without saying a word, Old Man Zheng cut his finger, squeezed out a drop of blood and put it into the mouth of the Black Panther.

The black panther licked it and turned to Dian Wei.

"Xiao Wei, just do as you are told."

Old Man Zheng said, "This strange beast can tell whether we are humans or demons."

Dian Wei quickly understood and gave a drop of blood to the black panther.

The Black Panther walked back and inspected each one.

By the time everyone was checked, more than an hour had passed.

Old Man Zheng took the opportunity to inquire: "Brother, why is the city gate closed in broad daylight? In my impression, even if there is a war, the city gate is not closed."

Shangyang sighed for a long time: "Someone is making trouble in the city. I don't know who stole the martial arts secrets of the Shangyang family. Then, that guy actually copied hundreds of copies and distributed them widely.

There is no other way but to close the city gate and collect all the secrets.

However, someone got the secret and escaped from the city in time, and is probably being chased by experts outside."

Old Man Zheng and Dian Wei couldn't help but look at each other.

Later, Shang Yangjiu confirmed that there were no demons lurking in the escort team and let them go.

Everyone filed into the city!

The prosperity of the city is also beyond imagination. The wide and clean Horse Racing Avenue, the classical and elegant pavilions, and the well-proportioned urban layout are all grand and solemn.

Not to mention people!

There were too many people, mingling like clouds.

This huge city may be home to tens of millions of people!

"It seems that I have underestimated the productivity level of this world." Dian Wei exclaimed, even in the ancient prosperous times, there was no majestic city of this scale, magnificent and extraordinary everywhere.

The long line of escorts passed through the streets and arrived at Granary Point.

Old Man Zheng handled the handover with ease, weighing the bags of grain before sending them to the warehouse.

After finishing all this work, it was already dark.

"Old rules, you go and stay at the 'Sifang Inn' two streets away. After that, everyone can move around freely. Those who want to do shopping can go shopping, and those who want to have fun can play. Just remember one thing, don't cause any trouble for me.

Otherwise I won't be able to spare you." Old Man Zheng said to the escort workers.

One person asked: "What are we going to return to?"

Old Man Zheng: "It's different this time. The city is under lockdown. We have to wait for the lockdown to be lifted first, so there's no rush."

Everyone understood and left in droves.

Old man Zheng did not leave, but pulled Dian Wei towards another street.

Dian Wei asked: "Where are we going?"

Old Man Zheng: "Sifang Inn is the accommodation arranged by Shangyang Family for the escort workers. They can have free food and accommodation, but the conditions are too bad. Of course we have a better place to go."

The two came to "Tongchuan Street" and entered a "Golden Tiger Inn".

"This is not Mr. Zheng, please come in quickly." The inn steward recognized Mr. Zheng and smiled broadly.

Old Man Zheng opened two rooms.

"Xiao Wei, you and I will have a first-class guest room each. Each room is assigned two maids. You can call them at your will. You can order whatever you want, and it's free of charge."

Old Man Zheng gave some instructions, "If you want to go out for a walk, ask the maid to arrange a carriage for you. Never walk alone. The city is so big that it is easy to get lost, and there are various rules in the city.

It will be very troublesome if you accidentally violate it."

Dian Wei nodded: "What about you?"

Old Man Zheng: "I'm going to meet some old friends and do some shopping. You may not be able to see me in the next few days."

Dian Wei understands.

After the two parted ways, Dian Wei went upstairs and entered the room. As expected, two maids came to serve him, both of them pretty good-looking.

They brought two new sets of clothes, one was pajamas and the other was a black suit. The fabric was of high quality and felt smooth and soft.

Bath water will be ready soon.

Dian Wei took a refreshing bath to wash away the stinky sweat accumulated on his body.

The two maids enthusiastically helped him bathe and massage him, not to mention how pleasant it was.
Chapter completed!
