The Night Watchman of Another World: I know a lot of things

Chapter 200 Entering Youyang Prefecture

Youyang Prefecture is indeed a famous city in Miaojiang. Unlike the villages that Yang Qing passed by on the road before, Youyang Prefecture not only covers a very large area, but also has city walls made entirely of mud, bricks and stones.

The city wall stretches for nearly a hundred kilometers, each ten meters high and eight meters thick, forming this huge Youyang Prefecture.

This is considered an incredible project in the mountainous area of ​​Miaojiang.

However, Youyang Prefecture is the base camp of the Tujia people, and the Tujia people are very good at earth-related Taoism. Thinking about it this way, the amount of work seems to be just that.

When approaching Youyang Prefecture, Yang Qing became more cautious and made a detour to enter the city from the north.

Youyang was not far from Shu Kingdom in the north, and merchants from Shu often came here to do business. Yang Qing and Shen Chan pretended to be Shu people and entered Youyang Prefecture.

After entering the city, Yang Qing took Shen Chan and quickly found an inn to rest.

The waiter at the inn saw that Yang Qing and his friend were dressed strangely. Not only were their clothes not like those from Miao, but the man had a small black cat lying on his head, and the girl had an animal that looked like a civet cat lying on her head.

After guessing that the two people were most likely monks, the waiter did not dare to be negligent and served them attentively and attentively.

After eating and drinking, the two began to discuss what to do next after entering the city.

Before Shen Tong separated from Shen Chan, he gave Shen Chan a jade pendant and asked her to seek refuge with Shen Huai, the third elder of the Tujia clan, after entering the city.

Shen Huai is Shen Tong's cousin, and also Shen Chan's great-grandfather. According to Shen Tong, as long as the two of them recognize each other, Shen Huai will take care of the rest of the work.

However, the two of them had just arrived and were completely clueless about everything in the city, let alone which direction the door of the third elder's mansion faced.

"Get some rest tonight. I will take care of the search for your great-grandfather. Once everything is clear, you can come forward."

Yang Qing gave instructions, and Shen Chan nodded to indicate that he understood.

Nothing happened all night.

The next morning, Yang Qing greeted everyone and told Shen Chan to stay in the inn unless necessary and to tell him through Di Tu He if there was anything. Then he went out with Ji Shui Bao Mo Guang.

After leaving the inn, Yang Qing didn't dare to ask anyone for directions on the street.

As a foreigner, you start asking for the address of the elders of the other tribe. The tribes in Miaojiang are somewhat xenophobic. If this gets into the ears of someone with ulterior motives, it will easily arouse suspicion.

After wandering around the street, Yang Qing quickly found a place where foreign merchants stayed in Youyang Prefecture through asking.

This place is located in the northwest corner of Youyang Prefecture. After Yang Qing came here, he began to contact these foreign merchants intentionally or unintentionally, selling some items seized from him.

Yang Qing still had many of the items that were robbed from Huang's Business on him.

Taking advantage of the time of reselling, Yang Qing became more familiar with these vendors, and naturally got out a lot of information he wanted to know.

Yang Qing claimed that he was a traveler here and was not familiar with the environment in Youyang City, so he asked around casually.

In the evening, Yang Qing returned to the inn. He not only found out the information he wanted, but also made an on-site investigation and checked the location.

But there is no way around it. When you are in someone else's territory, you have to be careful.

After nightfall, Yang Qing took Shen Chan and climbed over the wall of the inn and rushed to the residence of the third elder.

Along the way, using his magical power of seeing through walls, Yang Qing carefully avoided the night walkers patrolling the city.

After about an incense stick of time, the two of them reached the wall of the Third Elder's residence.

At this moment, in a study room in the mansion, the third elder Shen Huai was discussing something with his three sons.

"Dad, is there any news over there?

The election for the Saint position will begin in a few days, and they should have arrived a few days ago. Could something unexpected have happened along the way?"

Shen Huai's third son Shen Zhibao asked.

What they are discussing now is that Shen Tong and Shen Chan have not arrived yet.

"If I had any news, would I still hide it from you guys?

Since we know they are coming, Qi Liu should know it too.

At least her direct subordinate Thirteen Guards of Houtu have not appeared for a long time. I think Shen Tong and her great-granddaughter should be in danger now."

As he spoke, a trace of sadness flashed across Shen Huai's face.

When you are old, the number of relatives of the same generation who die is decreasing.

"As for me, we shouldn't have any hope for a traitor and her offspring. Let them die.

I think Qianqian and Momo are great in our family, and we don’t need to rely on anyone else.”

The one who spoke this time was Shen Zhihu, the second son of the Shen family. The Qianqian and Momo he mentioned were his granddaughters, and they also participated in the election for the position of Saint.

In order to ensure the activity of the Xirang, the saint on duty is required to continuously nourish the Xirang with her vitality, so the life span of a saint will be drained every eighty years.

But even so, every time the Saint is elected, all the girls of the Tujia tribe who meet the requirements will find a way to participate.

After all, that is Xirang, the holy product of soil. Even if you can't own it, it would be nice to have it accompany you for some time.

However, since this affinity for earth is also a kind of talent, and talent also requires bloodline and cultivation.

Therefore, the position of the Saint Maiden in all previous generations almost always came from the direct female relatives of the nine elders in the clan.

This election is divided into two tests: qualification selection and competitive selection.

The first round of qualification selection mainly checks the contestants’ age, as well as their affinity and control over earth-based Taoism.

Only those who pass the first round of selection are qualified to run for the position of Saint.

Qianqian and Momo, whom Shen Zhihu just mentioned, have already passed the first round of the test and are only waiting for the start of the competition selection in a few days.

Only by winning the final victory in the competitive selection can one be considered the new saint.

"Nonsense! Don't say I'm trying to boost others' morale. Just look at your Qianqian and Momo, who are at the level of two souls. They are usually pampered at home. Don't you have any idea how good they are at fighting?

You are so proud of having just passed the qualification selection? Even if they enter the ring, they will be cannon fodder. "

"Dad, Qianqian and Momo are your great-granddaughters!" Shen Zhihu murmured.

"Humph! Once you get on the stage, no one will give your father face.

I just feel sorry for it. From the letter that Shen Tong sent back, I knew that Shen Chan was a genius who had opened up the four spirits of Tianchong, Linghui, Qi and Zhongshu.

If I can represent our Shen family in the selection of the Saint, our Shen family will have hope of having another Saint."

Shen Huai sighed.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Shen Huai's expression suddenly changed, and he said coldly to the door outside his house: "Who is visiting so late at night!"

When these words were spoken, the three brothers of the Shen family were all shocked, because they didn't feel anyone outside the door.
