Chapter 56 ‘Black River City’ (seeking for further reading)
"Is it really related to the Black Snake family?"
Chen Mu thought that this person was pulling the banner randomly to save his life, but he didn't expect that the Black Snake family was actually involved.
In Chen Mu's hand, he was playing with a dark badge with two snakes surrounding it.
The symbol on this badge was familiar to Chen Mu. It was the emblem of the Black Snake family.
"The Black Snake family still has a business of raising bandits and robbing money?"
Chen Mu muttered to himself, but he didn't have any other emotions.
I just didn't expect that the Black Snake family would still raise such a group of trash to block the road and steal money.
Chen Mu plundered a lot of property from these people. No need to guess, he knew that this was definitely not the first time this group of people had done this. They were so skilled at begging for mercy.
But what about the people of the Black Snake family? If they offend him, they will be killed.
Chen Mu didn't think the Black Snake family would go to war with him for a few gangsters who didn't even have official knights.
Chen Mu didn't even think that the Black Snake Family could find him. After all, this was a wilderness and it was thousands of miles away from the core area of the Black Snake Family.
After casually disposing of the bodies of these people, Chen Mu climbed back onto Huang Lie's horse.
The outline of Heihe City gradually appeared in Chen Mu's eyes, and the giant city wall gave a majestic feeling when viewed from a distance.
"We're here, Black River City!"
The memory of the kingdom map in his mind made Chen Mu certain that this was Black River City.
"So many people!"
Chen Mu rode Huang Lie's horse and slowly approached the city gate from the main road. At a glance, he saw that at least hundreds of people were queuing to enter the city.
"Dismount, routine inspection."
Hearing what the guard said, Chen Mu got off his horse.
Next, Chen Mu realized why so many people lined up and it took so long for him to enter the city, because the interrogation when entering the city was too cumbersome.
The city guard in front of Chen Mu also looked a little ugly.
He had been hinting at this for a long time as to why the boy in front of him didn't have any sharp eyesight.
Didn’t you have eyesight or didn’t see what the people who entered the city did before?
He was also a little impatient in his heart, so he pointed at Chen Mu's Lion Heart Sword hanging on the sword belt.
"This cannot be brought into the city, please keep it with me first!"
After saying that, he reached out to pick up the knight sword hanging on Chen Mu's waist.
But the next moment, his wrist was pinched by Chen Mu, causing pain.
"I haven't heard that Black River City has any rules against bringing weapons into the city."
Chen Mu frowned and said.
At this time, the city guard also reacted. As a city guard of Black River City, his eyesight was not weak.
He was a knight's apprentice, and now he had no resistance when his wrist was pinched. It was obvious that Chen Mu in front of him was someone he could not afford to offend.
He is just an ordinary city guard who can't afford to offend too many people.
What's more, the person in front of him is not a citizen of the Blackwater Territory. Who knows if he has any noble status, and it will do him no good to break up.
Then his ugly face disappeared instantly and turned into a smile.
"I'm sorry, sir, you can go into the city, but outsiders need a silver coin to enter the city."
The city guards laughed and said nothing about weapons.
Chen Mu casually took out a silver coin from his purse and handed it to the guard, then led Huang Liema into Heihe City.
Looking at Chen Mu's back, the smile on the city guard's face disappeared and turned into that stinky look again.
He turned to look at the next person and said:
"Dismount, routine inspection!"
Entering the city, the scene of Heihe City came into Chen Mu's eyes.
Chen Mu's first impression of this city was that it was dirty and messy.
There is some garbage and debris accumulated around the street, and there are even some puddles emitting an unpleasant smell.
The people on the roads in the city turned a blind eye to these things, as if they were already used to them.
And just as Chen Mu entered the city, he saw a person's package being cut open, but the person didn't notice it at all.
Not to mention compared with Far East City, even the environment of Four Seasons City is several times better than here.
"How can a border city, which represents the facade of a territory, be dirty and messy, and the people of the Black Snake family don't care?"
Chen Mu had some doubts in his heart.
You must know that the border cities of a territory are very important both geographically and strategically.
Generally, the owners of the territory attach great importance to such border cities.
But in Black River City, there is no sign of being taken seriously.
The entire city is like an expanded slum.
No wonder there are many people entering the city here and even more people leaving the city.
"Sir, this is your first time coming to Heihe City. With three silver coins, I can act as your guide in Heihe City these days."
Just as Chen Mu was looking around, a thin black boy came up to him and said.
Chen Mu moved his eyes to the thin black boy in front of him.
"How do you know that I will only stay in Black River City for a few days."
"Sir, stop making trouble. You look like a noble. You won't be able to stay in a place like Black River City for long. If you want to settle in Black Water Territory, I recommend you to go to Snake Head City, which is one of the largest cities in Black Water Territory. , more suitable for living.”
Hetu spoke, the desire in his tone not being concealed at all when he mentioned Snakehead City.
Chen Mu casually took out three silver coins and handed them to Hetu.
Seeing the silver coin, Hetu's eyes lit up and he quickly took the silver coin and put it into his pocket.
"Tell me a brief introduction to Black River City."
Chen Mu spoke softly, and Hetu nodded quickly.
"As you can see, Black River City is dirty and messy. It is said that the owner of the Black Water Territory, Earl Black Snake, has abandoned the city."
"Sir, I just saw that you seemed to have an argument with the city guards in front of the city gate?"
Having said this, Hetu lowered his voice subconsciously.
Before Chen Mu could speak, he continued: "Master, I know that you must have a high status, but the last thing you should not provoke in Heihe City is the city guards. They are the biggest local gangsters in Heihe City. Some people even say."
At this point, Hetu seemed to realize that he had said a little too much, so he fell silent for a moment.
"The biggest local snake? Does that mean there are some smaller ones?"
Chen Mu became interested and asked.
"Yes, you can't mess with the Vine Tavern in the east of the city and the Hunters' Guild in the west of the city, especially the Hunters' Guild, which is said to be a branch of the Royal City's Hunting Mansion."
If the employer was interested, Nahetu would naturally not hide anything and told Chen Mu everything he knew.
Hetu's few simple words gave Chen Mu a rough understanding of the distribution of power in Black River City.
"First take me to find a place to park my horse, and then take me to a place to live with the best environment. As for the introduction to Black River City, I will tell you on the way."
Chen Mu spoke softly, and Hetu nodded quickly and led the way.
By the way, Chen Mu was introduced to everything he knew and could say about Black River City.
"Sir, Black River City is the city on the edge of the Black Water Territory. There are..."
Listening to Hetu's words, Chen Mu gradually constructed an outline of Black River City in his mind.
Use only one word to describe Heihe City.
That’s ‘chaos’!
The phrase "mountains are high and emperors are far away" is vividly reflected in Heihe City in the Blackwater Territory.
