Chapter 746: Official betting

The border of Shenzhou, the western suburbs of Jinxia.

After a four-day journey, the outline of this ancient Yancheng has gradually

appeared in the eyes of Li and the others.

"Are you sure you don't need to report first?" Li put down the carriage

curtain and preached, "The reception of the bureau will not hinder your

observation. On the contrary, there are some places where you cannot pass by

yourself."

The person she spoke to was the same vehicle as Venerable Shengtian.

The two messengers sent by the two sides to contact the Salvation Sect were

two persons. In addition to the Venerable, Wang Sha was also responsible for

the company. In addition, the embassy convoy is also provided by the Salvation

Church, with a total number of close to one hundred.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that another meaning of this team is to

protect the messenger. If the princess does something unfavorable to Venerable

Shengtian, at least they still have the opportunity to report the news.

"No. The truth can be forged. I believe more in what my eyes see." Venerable

Shengtian replied coldly.

"Let's do it." Li did not give any more advice. "The bureau is on duty all

day. When do you want to talk to Her Royal Highness, you can just go there and

show your identity. I will go back to the villa first—"

"You can't leave." Venerable Shengtian said flatly, "You have to be with me

these days when I entered Jinxia."

Li was stunned, "What?"

"I trust you and the Qinger girl, so I am willing to come and see Jin Xia's

appearance, but this does not mean that I also trust the Xia family boy Ning

Wanjun told you." The venerable looked at the fox demon, "So it's official

After meeting you, you are my host. I will not accept anyone other than you."

"Uh..." Li rubbed his head with a headache. As early as when he left Dashan,

the other party put forward the request of "silent observation", that is,

before deciding to meet formally, without telling the arrival of Jin Xiafang's

Salvation Church, the team of hundreds of people will also dress up as

caravans and be stationed on the outskirts of the city. . It seems that this

can reduce Jinxia’s defenses, and it will also facilitate the observation team

to see the truest side of Yancheng.

Of course Li had nothing to agree to. She didn't even ask Wu Lie to report the

letter secretly. She found a secluded place unattended at night, set up the

antenna and activated the audio system to complete the communication with Jin

Xia, and also saved the world by the way. All the plans to teach were

reported.

Venerable Shengtian didn't notice this.

After all, a person can go out for a quarter of an hour to spread the news to

the capital of another state. She has never heard of this technique.

Jinxia will naturally "cooperate" with the demands of the Salvation Church,

that is, everyone will turn a blind eye to the Salvation Church's visit and

just monitor it in secret. But Li did not expect that she would want to stay

by her side all the time. To be honest, this is beyond the reasonable scope of

diplomatic requirements.

Even if she refuses, the other party must be helpless with her.

But after hesitating again and again, she nodded, "I know, then I will welcome

you."

The days of getting along on the road allowed Li to learn more about this

famous place.

To her a little surprise, she can get along well with each other.

Although the Venerable was a little cold, and always treated the princess and

Xia Fan with a critical eye, in fact, her heart was not bad, and her view of

demon did not have the aversion and rejection of ordinary alchemists.

According to Luo Qingming, this person was probably a high-rank alchemist from

the Shangyuan Privy Council before, and it was indeed unexpected that Li could

feel so approachable. In addition, her knowledge is quite profound, from the

history of the dynasty to the experience of magic skills. Not only is the time

on the road not boring, but it seems to be passing fast.

Seeing Li's promise, Venerable Shengtian nodded in satisfaction.

At this moment, the speed of the carriage dropped suddenly.

At the same time, there was a loud noise from the front.

"My lord, the road ahead is blocked. It seems that someone is gathering to

make trouble." Wangsha disguised as a coachman reported.

"I'll see the situation." Li opened the car door.

"Wait, I will go with you too." The Venerable raised his mouth, "It seems that

Jinxia City is not so peaceful."

After getting off the carriage, Li saw that the entire official road was

indeed blocked, but the traffic was not completely stopped. There were already

guards guiding vehicles through the congested area from both sides of the

road, but the speed was relatively slow.

And she found that many carriages did not avoid the congested area, but took

the initiative to move forward, as if there was a good show going on there.

Venerable Shengtian speculated that in all likelihood, it was related to the

vagrant who wanted to enter the city.

She had heard before that Jin Xia was soliciting refugees on a large scale,

probably to fill the gap needed for the war. But this is not a long-term

solution. Excessive population growth will increase the consumption of the

city. Jinxia does not have the favorable conditions of the heavens, and it is

impossible to accept refugees indefinitely. Normal residents hate the refugees

for looting food, and officials do not want to see outsiders causing trouble.

This kind of contradiction will erupt one day sooner or later.

Then came suppression or expulsion.

She has seen similar scenes many times in other places—

"Place a bet, place a bet, whether one person is strong or thirty horses is

strong, let's take a guess! This is the official betting, and those who guess

the right one can get a reward of 50 yuan!"

"Then who guessed wrong?"

"Naturally, there is no reward, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, but there is no

need to pay any money!"

These words made the scene boil!

"I'm over thirty horses!"

"Me too!"

"Then I'll suppress others."

Of course, there are also some different sounds.

"Excuse me, what does this Xiongtai...50 yuan mean?"

"I don't know, I just came from Youzhou."

"Follow it, you don't need money if you lose anyway. Give me a sign, and I

will choose a horse to win!"

Venerable Shengtian was stunned.

Hearing the noise didn't seem like a contradiction.

She separated the crowd and walked into the noisy scene, only to see the open

space at the gate of the city was circled by guards and divided into two by a

white line. One side of the white line was a group of horses, and the other

side was a strangely shaped thing. It has six wide wheels, and its outline is

a bit like a carriage carriage, but there is no yoke and scale bar installed

in the front, which means it can't be dragged by livestock.

"What is Jinxia doing?" The Venerable frowned and asked.

"I don't know." Li shrugged.

"you do not know?"

"Well, this thing looks like a mechanical beast, probably a new invention of

the Bureau of Mechanical Engineering..." Li Tanran replied, "But that is

Sister Mo Yun's work, and I don't know much about it."

"These two ladies, do you want to place a bet?" A girl holding a plate

suddenly came to them.

"Does the daytime organization gather crowds for gambling? It's a nonsense!"

Venerable Shengtian snorted coldly.

But Li smiled and asked, "What are you betting on?"

"Bet on who has more strength!" The little girl replied crisply, "On one side

are thirty military horses, and on the other are liberated organ beasts and a

manipulator. Whoever can pull the opponent down will win!"
