Mutated Tao Chapter 671: Iron City


The iron-covered wheels rolled slowly, leaving two deep wheel marks on the somewhat withered yellow grass.

Sitting in the carriage, Li Huowang looked at the grass in front of him, recalling the last time he came to this place in his mind.

Li Huowang actually doesn't know much about Qingqiu, except that most of the people in this place are nomadic tribes, and that the people here are all thin and dark.

By the way, he still remembered the two very special sects in Qingqiu, the Bardo Temple where death was worshipped, and the weird lion dance palace.

"The grass in Qingqiu is actually really yellow, does this indicate something?" Li Huowang leaned slightly to the left, and his fingers ran across the yellow grass.

Then he remembered the natural disaster not long ago. The natural disaster that lost the sense of taste and smell disappeared after only three days.

This is not something to be happy about. This natural disaster is insignificant, but what if the next natural disaster is a very serious natural disaster?

Li Huowang really wanted to find out what was going on, but unless he went to Bai Yujing now, no one would know what happened outside the sky.

At this moment, his excellent eyesight saw a small black dot appearing in the yellow horizon in the distance.

As the carriage approached, the small black dot gradually grew bigger, finally showing the outline of a city, and it was gradually getting bigger as they approached.

"Is this the Iron City of Qingqiu?" Li Huowang looked over there and muttered to himself.

He made some preparations before coming. This is the only city in Qingqiu, and it is also the capital of Qingqiu.

In a place like Qingqiu where there is no wood and no stones, it is almost impossible to build a town, but this is the only exception - Iron City, which rises abruptly in an empty place without any material up.

Great Khan, the ruler of Qingqiu, lived in it, and the supervisor of Qingqiu was also located here.

Since Houshu is fighting against Fajiao, it would be impossible for him to rush into Houshu rashly and kill Fajiao when he sees him.

Not only is that inefficient, but it is also easy to overwhelm the enemy, and in the end, except for some ordinary people, none of the backbone of the teaching is dead.

Instead of doing that, it would be better to get in touch with Qingqiu's Superintendent Tiansi first, and see if he can get more information from them.

Besides, the national teacher also said before that the Sitianjian of Daliang and the Sitianjian of Siqi should be here.

Just as Li Huowang was thinking about these things, the special smell of sheep manure and horse manure gradually poured into his nose.

Maybe it's because Qingqiu is suitable for farming, and there are cow dung and horse dung everywhere around the whole iron city. Among the gnawed loose turf, there are piles here and there. Among them are not only livestock, but also many people.

When he saw that the wheel under him had run over a pile of fresh cow dung, and there was still a lot of limp green and brown sticking to the wheel, Bai Lingmiao couldn't help frowning, "This place is so dirty, it can even catch up with it." Anci Temple.

"Let's deal with it, there is no sewer in this place." Li Huowang said, shaking the rein lightly. The carriage quickened its pace and rushed towards the city.

Walking among all kinds of cattle, sheep and horses, Li Huowang and the others finally squeezed into the city. Compared with the outside of the city, the inside of the city was also not much better. ...

There are all kinds of buildings inside, tents, wooden houses, stone houses, all placed in a mess without a trace of planning.

Besides, cow dung and sheep dung were constantly trampled down by human feet, turning into a dense carpet of black excrement, like the stone bricks of Daliang City, covering the entire road.

The streets are very crowded, and people are next to each other. If only people are counted, there are really not many people, but people in this city, basically, as long as they can move, they have at least one livestock by their side, so that's why It seemed extremely crowded.

As for how bad the smell is, one can imagine watching the naked kid next to him squatting and **** on the street.

"Go, go in! The inner city should be better!"

The carriage slowly moved in, and the faces of everyone who were so ugly just now gradually became less ugly as time went by.

It's not that the environment is better, it's just that their noses are getting used to it.

"Father, what's that?" Li Sui asked, pointing to the white ornately decorated building built against the city wall in the distance.

The building is huge, it can be said that it is the largest in the entire Iron City, but obviously, it does not seem to look like a royal building.

From this, Li Huowang can judge that in this Qingqiu, the so-called Great Khan may not be the highest status, and some people have higher status than him.

"That should be a temple, right?" Li Huowang saw the tall spire and guessed that it could be called a temple in Qingqiu, and couldn't help but think of the Bardo Temple.

Li Huowang glanced around, and there were some lamas in black sheepskin and cockscomb hats in the crowd.

These lamas are all old people without exception, and they all seem to be the kind of haggard old people who are almost dead, with dark age spots covering their bodies like psoriasis.

Looking at some bone pendants on their bodies, Li Huowang grasped the reins and shook lightly to make the speed faster.

Although the capital of a country is a bit dirty, its vigilance is not lax at all.

Before Li Huowang and others approached the vicinity of the imperial city, some light cavalrymen with bows on their backs, swords on their shoulders, and mastiffs on their shoulders surrounded them.

Li Huowang didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, so as to avoid the language barrier, he directly threw his Tiansi supervisor badge over. "Is Xuan Mi here? Just say I'm here!"

Li Huowang was not taken to meet Xuanmu, but was taken underground through a tunnel.

Don't look at this - the outside of Tiecheng looks filthy dirty, but who would have thought that there is actually a clean Licheng under the filth. For some reason, the supervisors in all places are underground.

The mutton oil lamp hanging on the wall burned slowly and made a crackling sound. Li Huowang looked at a strange woman in front of him and remained silent.

Li Huowang didn't see the origin of the other party. He had seen many strange people, but his face was covered with pale powder, and on the white powder, various strange patterns were drawn in red. He was really the first Once in prison.

What's more special is that this Qingqiu woman is very revealingly dressed. Except for the necessary places where Buhler is used, other places are exposed, and various special patterns are used to draw complex and dense flower pictures.

Behind her stood a row of people wearing big bamboo hats. Those hats were so big that they almost covered the whole body of the person, leaving only two legs.

These people stood there silently, adding a touch of eerieness to the dim environment.

"Why did you ask Daliang Sitianjian?" The woman asked Li Huowang coldly,

"Let the qualified ones come over, you are not qualified." Li Huowang, who was too lazy to waste time, asked her directly.

However, what the other party said was beyond Li Huowang's expectation. "I am Qingqiu Sitianjian, am I qualified now?"
