Slay demons and gain sixty years of skill at the beginning

Ningcheng.

The next day, in the early morning, Gu Chen opened his eyes, washed up, and started a new day of morning exercises.

Near noon, Zhou Rang suddenly came to the door, which surprised Gu Chen.

"Mr. Zhou, please sit down. I wonder why Mr. Zhou came here this time?" Gu Chen raised his hand.

After a night's rest, Zhou Rang's complexion improved a lot. Hearing this, he smiled softly and touched the white beard on his chin, and said: "I came here mainly to thank Mr. Gu. If it weren't for Mr. Gu, you would

, Ningcheng may be in danger of falling, and it is very likely that none of the 150,000 Ningcheng people will survive."

"Mr. Zhou is serious, everything is Gu's responsibility. If Ningcheng really falls because of this, Jingtiansi will definitely not let me go," Gu Chen said.

In fact, this is indeed the case. If Ningcheng really falls, Jingtiansi will definitely hold Gu Chen responsible.

"Having said that, Mr. Gu still saved the lives of 150,000 people in Ningcheng. I am here to thank Mr. Gu on behalf of all the people in Ningcheng."

After saying that, Zhou Rang stood up, bowed and bowed deeply to Gu Chen.

"Mr. Zhou, please get up quickly." Seeing this, Gu Chen hurriedly helped Zhou Rang up.

After getting up, Zhou Rang smiled and said: "There is one more thing I want to tell Mr. Gu. I, the temporary magistrate of Ningcheng, should have come to an end. Tiandu has already learned about Ningcheng's affairs, and the new magistrate is on the way.

It won’t take long to reach Ningcheng.”

Gu Chen nodded. He naturally knew about this. He said, "Ningcheng is lucky to have Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou. If it weren't for your help during this period, things might not have gone so smoothly."
Gu Chen also said this sincerely. Without Zhou Rang's help, the people might not trust him, and searching the whole city wouldn't be so easy.

Zhou Rang had a full smile on his old face and said: "Actually, the third thing I want to do with you today is the most important thing. Of course, it is also the old man's private matter."

"Mr. Zhou, it's okay to say so." Gu Chen signaled to Zhou Rang.

"Okay." Zhou Rang nodded and said: "The thing is like this, my eldest son is working in Tiandu. I am old and there is a long way to go to Tiandu. I can't stand the trouble. I haven't seen him for a long time.

I have a letter here. I would like to ask Mr. Gu to take the time to send it to me after he returns to Tiandu. I wonder what Mr. Gu would like?"

Hearing this, Gu Chen smiled slightly and said: "It's okay for me. Mr. Zhou shouldn't say it's a little troublesome, just do it casually."

"Okay, Mr. Gu, please be happy. I would like to thank Mr. Gu in advance."

Zhou Rang said, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen took it and glanced at the address above, his eyebrows raised immediately.

"This is...if Gu is right, your son lives in the inner city?" Gu Chen raised his head, looked at Zhou Rang and asked.

"That's right." Zhou Rang stroked his beard, nodded with a smile, and said, "He is a first-class mirror holder of the Daxia Mirror Department."

"What?!"

When Gu Chen heard this, he was immediately shocked. He didn't expect Zhou Rang's son to have such an identity.

The Mirror Division is as famous as the Jingtian Division where Gu Chen works, but relatively speaking, the ranks within the Mirror Division are not as detailed as the Jingtian Division.

Within the Mirror Department, in addition to the four major supervisors, there are mirror holders, and the mirror holders are divided into first-level mirror holders, second-level mirror holders, and third-level mirror holders.

Among them, level one is the highest and level three is the lowest.

Although the classification is extremely simple, even a third-level mirror holder has the same status as a Jingtiansi patrol envoy.

A second-level mirror holder is equivalent to the commander within the Jingtian Division, while a first-level mirror holder has the same noble status as the commander within the Jingtian Division.

You must know that within the Jingtian Division, even the lowest-ranking commanders have the same status as the third-grade officers of Daxia, or even half a rank higher. This shows the high status and great power of the first-grade mirror holders.
Basically, the operation of the entire Mirror Division is handled by these internal first-level mirror holders. Unless there are some major matters, the four major supervisors of the Mirror Division cannot be alerted.

Now, Zhou Rang asked Gu Chen to deliver a message to the first-level mirror holder, and this person was his son. It was obvious that Zhou Rang was paving the way for Gu Chen.

No wonder people once said that Zhou Rang, the governor of Qingyang County, is the best person to support his younger generations. There are many officials in Qingyang County who are Zhou Rang's disciples or have received favors from Zhou Rang.

From what Gu Chen has learned so far, this old man is indeed serving the country and the people and has no selfish motives.

Gu Chen took a deep look at Zhou Rang, cupped his fists and said sternly: "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Rang stroked his beard gently, smiled kindly, and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Gu is too polite."

Then, he stood up and said: "The matter is almost settled, I won't disturb Master Gu's rest. By the way, when will Master Gu prepare to return to Tiandu?"

Gu Chen said: "Just today."

Hearing this, Zhou Rang nodded and said, "In that case, the old man is here to wish Mr. Gu a safe journey, and I hope there will be a chance to see you again in the future."

"Definitely." Gu Chen nodded solemnly and personally sent Zhou Rang downstairs, watching the old man get on the carriage and gradually go away.

Afterwards, Gu Chen packed up his parcel and set off immediately, returning to Tiandu in the afternoon of the next day.

Tiandu City is still so prosperous, with people coming and going on the streets, busy traffic, the cries of various vendors, and the smell of fireworks is very strong.

Tiandu City is the Kyoto of Daxia, covering a very large area. Standing at the city gate, looking from a distance, you can't see the end at all. It is like an endless mountain range standing on the earth, magnificent and huge.

This city has witnessed the changes of countless dynasties. The walls are thick and dark green, and some knife marks and arrow holes can be seen in some places. They are full of traces of time, giving people a sense of historical sedimentation.

Tiandu City is divided into four parts, from the outside to the inside, they are the outer city, the inner city, the imperial city and the palace city.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Each of these four parts is a city that covers an extremely wide area when exposed to the outside world. It is these four cities that cover an extremely wide area, combined together, to form Tiandu City.

The outer city is where ordinary people or some low-ranking officials live, and the inner city is where some high-ranking officials and dignitaries are qualified to live. Ordinary people need an identity token to enter the inner city, and the time is limited, so they cannot

You can always stay in the inner city.

Compared with the outer city, the inner city's defense is much stricter, and there is an additional curfew in order to protect the personal safety of those dignitaries.

As for the imperial city and palace city, they are related to the emperor's relatives and are not accessible to people at Gu Chen's level.

After Gu Chen returned to Tiandu, he first went home and changed his clothes. After all, he had traveled all day and night, and it was inevitable that he would be a little dusty. Then he found a carriage and started heading to the inner city.

The distance between the outer city and the inner city is very long. With Gu Chen's foot strength, it will take about an hour or two to arrive.

Soon, the carriage arrived at the junction of the inner city and the outer city. Gu Chen got out of the car and showed his identity token, and was let through by the soldiers guarding the gate.

It is worth mentioning that as a patrol envoy of Jingtiansi like Gu Chen, he does not need additional identity tokens or certificates to enter the inner city. Jingtiansi's token is the best proof.

Of course, if he wanted to spend the night in the inner city, he could only choose to go to Jingtiansi and not other places.

After paying for the carriage, Gu Chen walked into the inner city and his eyes immediately lit up. Compared to the outer city, the buildings in the inner city were more exquisite and varied, and the streets were wider, crisscrossed, and lush with trees.

Everyone walking on the street here looks glamorous and has a lot of money in terms of clothing.

The prosperity of the inner city is indeed far beyond that of the outer city. The floors are paved with bluestone, and all kinds of food, clothing, etc. are everywhere. Even if Gu Chen comes from the era of information explosion, seeing such a prosperous inner city,

I was also a little overwhelmed, just like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden and was very curious about everything.

However, Gu Chen did not forget the business of his visit to the inner city. He followed the address in the letter and spent some time arriving at the destination of his trip.
