Chapter 111 Send a letter
Zou Heng, who had left the town, carried a knife and a bag, and continued to the west of Yu Kingdom.
There were more things on his body than before, but for Zou Heng, there was not much burden, and it did not affect his speed at all. Even because of the previous events, Zou Heng accelerated his speed.
In the afternoon, Zou Heng finally came to another city. The name of this city was Lingxi City. It was already the closest city to the border of Yu Kingdom to the west.
Also as a border of the country, the west of Yu Kingdom was not valued by the north. There is a big city called Yecheng. Lingxi City here is just a small city and the population is not too large. If it weren’t because it was already close to the country. If someone must garrison the border, there might not be such a city.
However, although Lingxi City is a small city with a small population, the life of the people in the city is pretty good. After Zou Heng entered the city, he found that the city was quite prosperous. The people in the city were not dressed in shabby clothes. , There are many products with some exotic characteristics.
Zou Heng walked along the street and found that the largest number of shops in this city are various restaurants and inns, which provide rest for the merchants. The people in this city should also be doing business with foreign countries. To be able to live well.
After Zou Heng entered this city, because it was late, he first went to find the place where he lived at night, and then asked people about the situation of the small sorcerer kingdoms after leaving Yu Kingdom.
Lingxi City is close enough to the small states of warlocks, and there are so many merchants coming and going, so these situations can already be inquired, and without much effort from Fei Zouheng, he has received a lot of news. .
After sorting out the news that he heard, Zou Heng also had a clearer impression of where he was going next.
Afterwards, he stayed at the inn in the city for one night. In the room at night, Zou Heng did not sit on the bed as usual, and then rested after the time was up. Instead, he sat at the table in the room and took it out. With pen and paper, I started writing with the light.
He wants to write a letter, and then send the letter to the government in Lingxi City.
In this world, the connection between each other is a big problem, and the transmission of information is very important to a country. Otherwise, the various government orders issued by the upper level will be difficult to pass to the lower level, and the lower level reports. Under various circumstances, it is also difficult to reach the top of the court, and the country will soon be messed up. Therefore, many countries, including Yu Kingdom, have an organization that specializes in the delivery of letters and official documents.
Zou Heng’s main purpose in entering Lingxi City was actually to send out the letter he was writing, because an organization that delivers letters like this is at least in a place of the level of a city.
As a lonely person, even the master who worshipped in this world has become a former master. Zou Heng wrote a letter, of course, it will not be a greeting to a friend. His letter is to be sent to King Ni. It’s just to explain what I discovered from the caravan before.
Zou Heng was not a fool. When he left the capital, he felt sympathy for the various performances of King Ren, but he also noticed some things.
Even after he left, he didn’t know some of the changes in King Niu, but he also felt that the King Niu who stayed in the royal capital would never be his prince in peace.
Since ancient times, people who have become major events have been troubled. Zou Heng didn’t know whether his letter would help King Ren, or whether it would help him himself. He just sent this letter just casually.
If it will help Nioh, then maybe your troubles will disappear soon. It’s a matter of killing two birds with one stone. If it doesn’t help, then you are nothing more than just sending a letter.
After writing hundreds of words and writing many pages in a row, Zou Heng suddenly became interested in the matter of writing letters. After simply writing the letter to King Ren, he also wrote letters to Zhang Xiaonian and Old Man Liu in the Mansion of King Ren. Letter, and Li Sheng, Zou Heng also wrote him a letter of greetings.
After writing a few letters, Zou Heng took out a few sheets of paper from his shoulder bag, folded them very flexibly with his fingers, and folded them into several envelopes. There was no glue or the like in the connection between them. Together.
After finishing the envelope, Zou Heng stuffed a few letters in, and then wrote the address on the envelope, and put a few paper men in the letter to Nioh to prevent random opening. By the means of reading, these letters are finished.
The next step is to go to bed to practice, and then to sleep. After dawn, Zou Heng went to the government office in Lingxi City, preparing to send these three letters.
When he entered the place where the letter was sent and handed the letter to the official who handled the letter, the official glanced at the address on the letter, and suddenly looked up and down Zou Heng, but in the end he didn’t say anything and just accepted the letter. , And then collected fifteen taels of silver from Zou Heng.
I have to say that this price is still relatively expensive, but considering the difficulty of sending letters, plus this is almost a unique channel, so the price is not particularly outrageous.
Zou Heng had also obtained a lot of silver from the people in the caravan, which added up to a few hundred taels, so he paid the money very simply.
After finishing this matter, Zou Heng bought some food in the city, then left Lingxi City and headed directly to the western border of Yu Kingdom.
From Lingxi City, about thirty miles away, you will reach a small mountain range. This mountain range is the border between Yu Kingdom and the small warlock countries. With this mountain range as the boundary, after leaving the mountain range, It doesn’t belong to the scope of Yu Kingdom anymore.
And as the border of a country, there are naturally people stationed there. Although Yu Kingdom pays less attention to the western border than the north, it still has tens of thousands of troops stationed throughout the year, always guarding those small warlock nations. Suddenly changed face.
Zou Heng came here, followed some people who were also leaving the border of Yu Kingdom, and soon saw the way out from the front.
It was not directly over the mountain, but as if a mountain was neatly cut from the middle, and a passage about ten meters wide was opened. The walls on both sides of the mountain are very smooth. It feels like this passage. As if cut out with a sharp sword.
According to Zou Hengjue, the facts may be similar. For terrain like this, there is a high probability that it is artificially created. Creating such a passage at the border of the country is not only easy to pass, but also easy to defend and difficult to attack. s Choice.
Following some merchants ahead, Zou Heng began to approach the passage step by step. At this time, he saw that the soldiers guarding the passage had carried out a more detailed inspection of the people passing through here. For some of them , Is still making notes on the side.
This Zou Heng knew before that people who want to leave the kingdom of Yu and go to the small states of warlocks must register their identities. It is best to be able to show some identification certificates. After all, although they do business with each other, they are in different countries after all. Things still have to be guarded.
Zou Heng moved forward step by step. When it was his turn, the soldiers standing there looked up and down his clothes. After finding that it was a warlock, the surrounding soldiers immediately paid attention to him. The teenager walked up directly and asked Zou Heng.
“How do you call the mage, is it the first time you have left the customs?”
Hearing the other party’s inquiry, Zou Heng immediately replied: “My name is Zou Heng. It is indeed the first time I have left customs!”
After hearing Zou Heng’s answer, the teenager nodded and continued: “In that case, please leave the mage aside for a while. There are some things you need to ask the mage, please understand!”
After hearing this, Zou Heng nodded his head and walked to the registration place next to him. The teenager followed him and began to inquire about his situation. The person who registered there began to write on paper.
“Where was the mage born? You can carry household registration documents or other things that can prove your identity!” the teenager asked.
“I was born in a small place. My parents died early and I did not apply for household registration documents. As for things that can prove my identity, I have escorted His Royal Highness Niu back to the capital before. I don’t know if this matter can be used as a proof. !” Zou Heng replied.
Hearing this, the teenager looked at Zou Heng’s gaze and suddenly became a little surprised. The person recording next to him couldn’t help but look up at Zou Heng.
“Where does the mage want to go this time, and what are they going to do?” The young general continued to ask, after constricting his expression.
“I just want to travel to a few small sorcerer countries outside and increase my knowledge. It is best to learn some magic techniques!” Zou Heng replied honestly. This is indeed the purpose of his trip.
After the teenager listened, he nodded gently, then asked a few more painless questions, then turned around, picked up a piece of paper on the table next to him, and handed it to Zou Heng.
“There is no problem with the identity of the mage. You can go there. Take this paper. This is your exit voucher. You will use it later when you come back. If you lose it then, it will be more troublesome!”
Zou Heng took the piece of paper, the texture of it was a bit hard, and then some of his own information was written on it, and the content was related to what he had just said.
Put the piece of paper in the bag, Zou Heng nodded to the young general, and then walked outside the pass.
The distance is about ten meters wide, and the length is about 100 meters, so the road passed quickly.
Zou Heng walked out from here, but his steps immediately stopped, because there were two roads ahead of him, each leading to different places. Next, he had to decide whether to go to the left or to the right.
He glanced at the road on the left. There were more people walking there. Zou Heng didn’t hesitate and chose the road on his left.
