Chapter 47 White Dragon City

The lockdown lasted for three full days.

For three days, Qingya County was under full martial law, and people came to search for gangsters every day. It wasn't until the dusk of the third day that an order came from the other side of the valley, and the blockade in Qingya County was finally lifted.

At the same time, Chen Luo also knew who the big shot in the mine was.

The third prince!

Previously, King Ning secretly killed a prince in order to block the news, but there is no airtight wall in the world. Afterwards, King Ning sent people to seize the first opportunity and sold the relevant information to the third prince to gain the support of the court. A prince who wanted to rebel collaborated with a prince. This involves another layer of conspiracy and calculation, but these are not things that Chen Luo, a small corpse buryer in the county, can get involved in, and what the people above are fighting for is not something he can understand.

The appearance of the third prince diverted the attention of the entire Qingya County.

Zhou Zhixian did not care about tracing the murderer anymore and transferred all his energy to the third prince.

Another day later, King Ning's order also arrived.

The death of a son was revealed by the two of them in an understatement. No one knew the specific reason, but the people below also had the sense not to discuss the matter.

Jiang Danian started drinking flower wine again.

It was as if the Nineteenth Young Master had never appeared before and had become a thing of the past in Qingya County.

Another half day.

The blockade in Qingya County has also been completely lifted.

Chen Luo's retreat has also officially ended.

"it's time to go."

Chen Luo walked into the yard and locked the door.

He waited in the city for a few days to make sure that Zhou Zhi County and others had not traced him, and then he felt relieved. He also didn't want to trick his master Ma Laizi and his third uncle because of his own reasons.

In fact, if the new magistrate of Zhou County really investigated Chen Luo carefully, it would be easy for him to find him. After all, Chen Luo showed up at the banquet that night and took advantage of the Nineteenth Young Master. From the perspective of solving the case, he had a motive.

The little tricks he uses to hide his identity can deceive ordinary people, but if you are a real master of solving crimes, you can see the problem.

It's a pity that Zhou Zhixian didn't focus his energy on this at all. The pursuit of the murderer was said to be fierce, but the actual actions were basically done for people to see. Afterwards, he heard from Jiang Danian that the head of Zhouzhi County was the eldest son of Prince Ning's Mansion, and Chen Luo understood the secret behind it.

Old streets and alleys.

Chen Luo arrived at the door of Ma Laizi's house.

He originally wanted to say goodbye, but he didn't expect that the door to his home was locked, as was Junior Sister He's home. After asking at the Shahu Gang station, I found out that Ma Laizi had gone out two days ago. The 'rebellion' incident in Qingya County not only changed Chen Luo's life, but also changed some of his master Ma Laizi's thoughts.

He planned to go out for a walk while he was still alive and accumulate some energy along the way, so as to avoid being killed by someone taking "credit" the next time he encountered such a thing.

Chen Luo could only express regret for this.

After that, he went back to the village to see his parents, third uncle, and the little girl who had just learned to call her father and mother.

By the time all the trivial matters were taken care of, it was already half a month later.

Shangshui City is the superior state capital of Qingya County. Qingya County and Yanhu County are both county towns under the jurisdiction of Shangshui City. Young people who have developed well in these small counties will go to Shangshui City to seek better development there. The old Liu Tou couple and their children who sold noodles at the entrance of the alley developed in Shangshui City.

However, the goal of Chen Luo's trip was not Shangshui City, but Bailong City, the provincial capital of the adjacent state capital.

The Baixian Cave that the Nineteenth Young Master mentioned before his death is located near Bailong City.

This news was bought by Chen Luo at a huge price, and it was not like what the Nineteenth Young Master said that he could just ask anyone.

The sun sets in the west.

The old loess road is filled with dust, and the dilapidated donkey cart is loaded with straw.

Chen Luo slept in a pile of straw like a beggar. The donkey cart bought by the farmer's family moved forward leisurely.

He had a gold belt for killing people and setting fire, not to mention that the person he killed was a wealthy kid like the Nineteenth Young Master. Therefore, Chen Luo was not short of money, and he bought this donkey cart with the savings of the Nineteenth Young Master. He was very grateful to the Nineteenth Young Master who had given him the qualifications and money to 'sponsor' him. When he attains enlightenment and becomes an immortal in the future, he must go to his grave and burn two more pieces of paper so that he can live a richer life there.

The donkey cart moves forward.

After crossing the border of the state capital, the number of people gradually increased.

Some traveling merchants also stayed away from him after seeing him.

In today's world, no one who dares to travel far alone is a simple person. For those who go out to do business, the most difficult thing to test is their vision. Those who have no eyesight will have died long ago in the corners of the mountain.

Two hours later, when the sky was dark, Chen Luo finally arrived at his destination.

White Dragon City.

Legend has it that this city got its name from the white dragon ascending to heaven, and that the founding emperor of the Yue Kingdom made his fortune from here.

“The state capital is all about style.”

Chen Luo sat up from the donkey cart, looked at the towering city wall in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh. Compared with it, the city wall of Qingya County is like a child's toy, and anyone with a little bit of martial arts can look through it. But Bailong City is not good. The height of the city wall alone reaches ten feet, and there are many soldiers wearing fine armor patrolling it.

This is also the first time Chen Luo has faced a large city in this world. In his impression, even the height of Jinling City in his previous life was only half of this city.

If the state capital is like this, what is the scene like in the capital?

It is indeed a world with extraordinary power, and it cannot be measured by simple ancient society.

There were many people entering the city, and the queue was almost thirty meters long. Chen Luo drove the donkey cart and followed the queue to enter the city.

As night fell, torches were lit around the city gate.

The bright firelight illuminated the surrounding area as bright as day.

There is no curfew in provincial capital cities like Bailong City. Only small county towns like Qingya County, which have no defense capabilities, will implement a curfew policy. From this point, we can also see the difference between provincial capitals and local areas. They are more confident and stronger.

Half an hour later, it was finally Chen Luo's turn.

The guards checked very carefully, even turning over the straw on Chen Luo's donkey cart to take a look, and someone came up to search him. As an old hand, Chen Luo naturally understood what the other party meant. While the people around him were not paying attention, he quickly shook out a purse from his sleeve.

This purse was prepared by him before he went out. It was filled with copper coins, specially used to deal with the current scene.

"Go ahead."

The guard who searched Chen Luo took the money bag without leaving a trace, patted Chen Luo twice, and waved to let him go.

"That's right."

Yue State is still the same Yue State, and it will not change just because it has arrived at the provincial capital, but the people here pretend to be more like it.

Chen Luo grinned and drove the donkey cart into the city gate.

After entering the city, the view in front of him widened, with a bustling market and bright lights. Even the streets on the ground were very clean, and from time to time some servants in black clothes would come to clean up. After walking a few steps, you would see some incense plants, and the faint fragrance would make people feel relaxed and happy.

The vendors on both sides shouted loudly. These people were extremely enthusiastic when they saw anyone, and they would not discriminate against Chen Luo because of the donkey cart he was sitting in.

For the vendors, as long as they can make money, even if the person who comes is a beggar, they will greet him with a smile.
