Cannon fodder always wants to be the protagonist [Transmigration Book]

At the gate of Liangyi City, a few soldiers were guarding the gate with due diligence. Whether entering or leaving the city, they had to be interrogated one by one for their identities and packages before being released.

Near noon, there was already a long queue outside the city.

It's not that there are really many people coming to the city.It's just that many well-to-do young masters and young ladies in the queue are waiting in carriages, and there are also some shopkeepers who carry goods in horse-drawn carts and donkey carts, which makes the queue seem very long.

The scorching sun was in the sky, and the sun was shining directly down, making everyone feel impatient. Seeing that the queue was still long, they couldn't help complaining.

Not all the young people in the team were pampered.

A little girl with buns and bangs, and a gorgeous white gauze skirt stood under the sun openly, as if she was not afraid of the harshness of the sun.She complained to the young man in his early twenties who was also dressed in fancy clothes beside her: "I heard my uncle mentioned the Eryi City before, but I didn't hear that there would be queues to enter the city! If I had known we would Don't leave like this, it's a waste of time!"

This little girl seems to be only in the age of cardamom, but she already has apricot face, peach cheeks, pink makeup and jade, and she is very beautiful and cute.There is a women's saber hanging around her waist. Although the style is simple and there are no pearl ornaments, it is still dazzling and streamering in the sun, as if it can emit light by itself.

The young man next to her was also very handsome, with a sword hanging on his waist. Hearing her complaint, he couldn't help but said, "It must have been a long time ago when the uncle came last time? It's not surprising. "

"My son, you are wrong." A man who looked like a shopkeeper behind them said.

He said: "Originally there were guards at the gate of the city, but they never deliberately checked the passers-by... As long as they are not suspicious people, they will not intervene. The reason why we are so cautious now is because a strange incident has occurred in the city recently. .”

Although the little girl also knew that the "long time ago" in her senior brother's mouth should really be a long time ago.Maybe it was as long as before the salesman was born.

But she was still a child at heart, and she still couldn't help asking curiously: "Oh? What's so strange?"

The salesman was also a person who was willing to chat with others. Seeing that he had whetted the appetite of others, he deliberately lowered his voice contentedly, and said mysteriously: "What else can it be? This city is haunted!"

The girl raised her lips and smiled, she didn't seem to be afraid, and asked, "What the hell?"

"This incident happened in the home of the richest man in the city. The richest man, Mr. Liu, is also the brother of the county magistrate, so..."

The shopkeeper hadn't finished speaking when he was suddenly interrupted by a loud yawn.

The yawning sound was somehow so loud.The three of them were so startled that they couldn't help but follow the prestige. It turned out that it was the man who had been standing in front of the little girl and was lying motionless on a donkey.

The man yawned, sat up slowly, and stretched himself on the donkey.

In fact, the two luxuriously dressed youths and girls noticed the person in front of them before.

But they all ignored the one lying on the donkey, but noticed the young man leading the donkey next to him.

The young man was dressed in ordinary black clothes, with a sword on his waist. He should be about fifteen or sixteen years old in stature, with his hair neatly combed, and he was almost motionless during the long wait.He was facing forward, and his waist was straight, as if standing while waiting was not tiring and the sun was not shining.

Anyone who saw this young man who was standing taller than the guard at the gate of the city couldn't help but take a few extra glances.

It's a pity that apart from leading the donkey and following the team at a slow speed, the boy didn't even miss his head, and they could only see the back of him before.

If it wasn't for the young man's clothes and sword being very ordinary, not even counting as a magic weapon, they would have thought that the young man came from some decent family or a big family with strict laws.

As for the half-dead man lying on the donkey, even if they wanted to deliberately ignore it at this moment, they really had to pay attention.

This man reeks of alcohol.The weather is so hot now, when he got up, the smell of wine was blown over by the wind.

Both the young man and the girl couldn't help frowning.

They have been strictly disciplined since they were young, especially the young girl, because of the prohibition of alcohol in the sect, she has not smelled a little alcohol since she was born, and now she was smoked by this person, and she quickly covered her nose.

The man on the donkey was ragged and his hair was in a mess.

He stretched fiercely, as if he didn't realize that he was being disgusted by others, he bent down and took out a small wine jar from the cloth bag hanging on the side of the donkey's neck, and took a sip with his head up.

His donkey is also strange.A cloth bag was tied to each end of the donkey's head, and there were some miscellaneous things in it while the wine was placed. The cloth bag was very deep and old, and a rusty broken sword could be seen protruding from the mouth of the cloth bag.

"I've already woken up, why haven't I entered the city yet?" The man muttered dissatisfiedly, picked up the wine jar and took another sip.

The young man leading the donkey by his side ignored him, still facing forward.

The man didn't mind either, he had a good time, and handed the wine jar out in a rather sloppy manner, "It's so hot, do you want to take a sip to cool off?"

The girl frowned, and pressed her hand on the saber at her waist, thinking in her heart: Why is this person like this?How old is that young man, and you instigated him to drink? !

The young man next to her raised his hand to stop her, and said softly: "Junior Sister Linglong, that's her family's business."

The boy still didn't speak, but turned his head to look at the man on the donkey.

Yan Linglong happened to see half of his profile.

The boy's skin was very fair and tender, with a pair of light-colored, thin lips with a regular shape.Looking up, the boy's nose should be quite straight... The reason why he said it should be is because the boy's face above half of the nose is covered by a black mask.

The mask was made of unknown material, it was black and shiny, and it could still glow with a cold glow under the scorching sun.

This is a spiritual weapon!Yan Linglong and the young man beside her, Chu Yunguan, recognized her almost at the same time.

It's just that what Chu Yun was thinking about was that this young man was wearing ordinary clothes, but why did he have a spiritual weapon on his face?What is the function of this spirit weapon?

But what Yan Linglong thought was: Why did this boy wear a mask to cover half of his face?Could it be that there was some damage on his face?If so, it would be a pity for such a face.

The man on the donkey chattered endlessly while drinking, but the boy ignored him again.

Several people looked forward and then looked away.The queue was still long, and the shopkeeper started telling them about strange things about Liu Yuanwai's family in the city.

At last it was time for them to enter the city.

A guard with an expressionless face asked numbly: "What are you doing? What are you going to do when you enter the city?"

The man on the donkey said: "Ghost hunters, I heard that the city is not peaceful now, so I came to see it."

When he said this, the two people behind him with excellent hearing realized that this person was indeed wearing a Taoist robe.It's just that the clothes are too shabby and have been taken off their shape a long time ago. If it weren't for the pattern of five elements and eight trigrams on the back that is still vaguely recognizable, I'm afraid no one would really think that he is a Taoist priest.

In the past few days, many people claimed to come to catch ghosts. I saw too many guards guarding the city, but I am afraid that those people are all going to the city to deceive people.Otherwise, if someone really managed to slay demons and eliminate demons, why would they still be so strict in and out?

Another guard carefully checked their bags, to be exact, the two rag bags, and seeing that there was nothing suspicious inside, they let them go easily.

If it wasn't for the higher-ups insisting on asking them to do so, who would want to stand outside in this scorching heat?But even though they had to obey the orders, they couldn't help but mutter in their hearts, if there are really demons haunting them, what's the use of spying on ordinary people?

Until the two of them passed through the city gate, Chu Yunguan and the others were stopped for inspection, Yan Linglong's eyes still stayed on the young man's back.

Chu Yun watched it, but didn't say anything.

Although he is her senior brother, his actual age is much older than what he appears on the surface, so naturally he doesn't care about what this thirteen or fourteen year old girl is thinking.

Besides, Xiao Ranjun's niece is beyond his control.

Thinking that they were about to join Mr. Xiao Ran in this city, Chu Yunguan breathed a sigh of relief.
