Chapter 336 Assemble, Erwin Line of Defense! (4)
The little storm last night did not hinder Su Yang and his group from moving forward. In their opinion, it is not a big deal to deal with these ignorant robbers, just to treat it as eliminating harm to the people.
As for why they learned about this situation in advance, the reason is very simple. Don’t forget what Zero’s identity is. What’s more, when they passed through the border checkpoint during the day, they had already found someone following him secretly, so if they didn’t even have this alertness, wouldn’t Su Yang have been in the mainland for so long?
The only thing that made Su Yang feel a pity was that after finishing the gang of robbers last night, he didn't have time to clean up the two tents left in the same place because he was too hastily. So Su Yang had to plan his daily itinerary in the following time. After all, it would be basically impossible to sleep in the wild without tents and sleeping bags. If Su Yang was just alone, it would be fine. He was a big man and slept in the grass and tree trunks, but he couldn't let Han Menglan and the three girls suffer with him.
Fortunately, the Caesar Empire was quite densely distributed on the border, with an average size of towns distributed on the road of 60 or 70 miles. From a point of view, it can be seen that the Caesar Empire surpassed the other four empires in terms of military strength and people's livelihood.
......
The sun is approaching the sun
Su Yang looked up at the golden afterglow in the sky and said, "Menglan, boss lady, Zero, it's getting late, let's work harder to rush to the next town before dark."
Jiuxian'er looked at a map he bought from the previous town and said, "The next town is less than ten miles away from here, very close. At our speed, you can definitely arrive before it gets dark."
The reason for arriving before dark is that these cities on the border of the Caesar Empire have curfews. Once the night comes, the city gates are closed and no outsiders are allowed to register for the city. This has also caused many caravans or adventurers to criticize them. However, no matter how these people protest or dissatisfied, the curfews in the Caesar Empire should be implemented, without any impact.
"Well, let's hold on tight, Meng Lan, you can take a little bit of it." Su Yang added awkwardly.
Zero is different from Su Yang and the other three. After obtaining the power of prophecy to predict the future, the corresponding exchange is that he cannot practice any magic or fighting spirit from now on. So the prophecy is just an ordinary person. It is already very difficult for Zero to be able to keep up with Su Yang and the others during the day, so Su Yang will let Han Menglan and Jiu Xian'er take turns to take care of Zero.
"Well, I understand, don't worry." Han Menglan didn't care at all.
Regarding the mysterious prophet Zero, Han Menglan did not have any intention of being cautious about other women close to Su Yang. Han Menglan himself could not explain the reason.
......
After a tight journey, about half a continent, the outline of a town appeared in front of Su Yang and his group, and the sky was not completely dark at this time.
"Fortunately, I caught up."
As Su Yang spoke, he had already walked to the entrance of the town, and the Caesar Empire soldier who was responsible for registering to enter the city and is preparing to enter the city with a folding bench.
"Please wait a moment. The four of us want to enter the city. Please let this brother do it for convenience." Su Yang said loudly.
When the soldier heard this, he turned his head and saw that in addition to a man standing behind him, three women also rushed towards him. He couldn't help but turn around and said, "Okay, just think I work overtime and do good deeds. You four are lucky enough to meet me, Bronck. It would be strange if you meet that boy Joseph to take care of you."
"Thank you, Brother Bronck, for this." Su Yang took out a shiny gold coin from his sleeve and handed it over.
Bronck's eyes lit up and he quickly took the gold coin: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say."
"Name?" Bronck asked, putting down the folding stool and taking out a small notebook for notes.
"Su Yang."
"Su Yang." Bronck first wrote these two words on the notebook, then read Su Yang's name repeatedly, and suddenly opened his eyes wide and said, "Your name is Su Yang? Are the three of them your companions?"
Bronck's strange moves stunned Su Yang, but Su Yang still nodded honestly and said, "That's right."
"Haha! I just said why did my left eyelid keep jumping today? It's up to me, Bronck, to make a fortune." Bronck suddenly laughed excitedly, and then shouted to the city gate building: "Brothers, come down for me and take these four people away!"
What's going on?
Su Yang was confused, and the three Han Menglan who came immediately followed him with questions in the face of the town guards who suddenly surrounded him.
"Brother Bronck, do you see if there is any misunderstanding here? Have you caught the wrong person?" Su Yang asked helplessly.
"Catch the wrong person? It's impossible. The name of Su Yang is correct. There are four people in the group, one man and three women. It's definitely you. Take it away and take it to the city lord's mansion. I'll treat you tonight for a midnight snack." Bronck said with a smile.
"Oh, thank you captain." The guards around agreed, then raised the spear in their hands and brought Su Yang and the other four into the town.
Although the strength of Su Yang and the other four can easily deal with these dozen ordinary guards who have no fighting spirit or magic fluctuations on them. However, before figuring out the whole story, Su Yang felt that it would be better for him to hold on to the army.
After using his eyes to stop Jiuxian'er who wanted to resist, Su Yang honestly followed the guards toward the city lord's mansion.
The town where the city lord's mansion was able to set up was a big town in the Caesar Empire, so during the period when the curfew was just around the corner, the prosperity of the town streets was even much better than that during the day.
Su Yang was also thinking about the reason why he was arrested by these guards along the way. This reason must have been conveyed to this town today. Because Su Yang also registered in the previous town last night with his own name, but there was no abnormality at that time. So the reason for this situation must have been that he only appeared today.
"The truth will be revealed only when you see the city lord." Su Yang murmured in his heart.
The distance between the city gate and the lord's mansion was not too far. In just a quarter of an hour, Su Yang and the other four were taken to the gate of the lord's mansion by Bronck and more than a dozen soldiers under his command.
"Stop! The city lord's mansion is important, outsiders are prohibited from entering!"
Before Bronck could approach, the elite guards of the City Lord's Mansion had already crossed their weapons and blocked their way.
"Hehe, brother, don't get me wrong. We are our own people, our own people." Bronck said with a smile.
At this time, these elite guards saw from the outfits of Bronck and his group that they were indeed guards near the city gate, so they put down their weapons and asked, "What are you doing here? Isn't the city gate closed?"
“That’s how it is…”
Bronck immediately informed the elite guards of how he met Su Yang and his group of people.
When he learned that Su Yang and others were the ones the city lord wanted to notice, the elite guards' expressions stopped and then gave a wink at the other person beside him and asked him to go to the city lord's mansion to verify Bronck's statement.
After a while, the soldier who ran into the city lord's mansion hurried out again, and a panting old man was following behind him.
As soon as the old man arrived, Bronck's eyes stagnated because the old man's identity was not someone else, but the old butler of the lord of the town.
"Sir, why did you come out in person?"
The elite guards directly left Bronck aside and walked up to ask.
But the old butler ignored the elite guard and walked directly to Bronck and asked, "Is it them?"
"Yes, yes, they personally admitted that his name was Su Yang." Bronck quickly pointed to Su Yang who was standing among the guards and said.
"Well, one man and three women are about the same age. It should be the person the Grand Duke is looking for." The old butler muttered in a low voice.
Although the sound was very low, it was still heard by Bronck, who was very close to him.
The person the Grand Duke is looking for?!!
How many great dukes can this Caesar Empire have? All the people they can name are big names in the Caesar Empire, but Su Yang and others don’t look like big names no matter how they look at it.
Although Bronck was confused, he was too lazy to inquire in detail. After all, if you know too much about these senior officials, you will be killed.
"You guys come in with me." The old butler pointed to Su Yang and the other four, then turned around and said to Bronk: "Bronk, right? He did a good job. I will write down this matter. I will reward you when I report it tomorrow."
Bronck was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Mr. Butler, thank you."
The old butler did not respond to Bronck, but turned around and walked into the city lord's mansion with Su Yang and the other two.
On the way, Su Yang couldn't help but ask in his heart: "Old man, don't know what we did?"
"Don't be nervous, it's not a bad thing. I, the old man, dare not say that other great dukes, at least the one you are going to see later can definitely be considered a gentleman." The old butler replied with a smile.
"All right."
Since everyone else said that, Su Yang didn't ask too much, so he could only honestly follow the old housekeeper with Han Menglan and the three girls.
After many twists and turns, the old butler took Su Yang and the other four to a very quiet and unique courtyard.
"Fourth, you'll be here, just go in." The old butler pointed to the courtyard and said.
Su Yang and the other two looked at each other, then stepped in without any hesitation.
As soon as I walked into the yard, a voice came from my ear: "My friend Su Yang, I haven't seen you for a long time, but is that okay?"
