For her, these cities are like the new DLC for "SIM4" or "Skylines". You can play them just the same without buying them, but it always feels like something is missing.
Especially, there is no extra charge for this new city.
He Nian chose Linjiang City, which was the closest.
Because the distance is short, even if you want to return to the sect after staying there long enough, the travel expenses will be cheaper than other cities.
With a flash of green light, He Nian appeared in a small courtyard surrounded by high walls on all sides in Linjiang City.
Before leaving, He Nian looked back at the money for the return trip.
"The cooldown period has not yet expired. Returning to Cangxia Sect's Yucui Peak now will cost 1750 Contribution Points. Do you want to return?"
Damn, robbing money! ?
He Nian glanced at the teleportation array with disdain and took two steps back.
Arriving at the door, He Nian discovered that two soldiers in silver armor stood on either side! Judging from their auras, they were genuine monks!
He Nian walked out of the door nervously and found that the two silver-armored soldiers just glanced at her and did not make any other moves.
If it were an ordinary game, He Nian might have treated these two people as wooden figures that could not interact.
But this is "Cangxia Asks the Way"!!
NPCs that cannot be interacted with cannot exist!
He Nian approached a silver-armored monk and asked softly, "Hello, General. May I ask, is this Linjiang City?"
The silver-armored monk glanced at him but did not reply.
Good guy?
"I am a disciple of the Cangxia Sect. I have just arrived here and am unfamiliar with the place. I wonder if you could give me some directions so that I can know where I am..."
The silver-armored monk stared straight ahead, unmoved.
Still not speaking?
Is it because of the strict military discipline?
He Nian thought for a moment, then took out a spirit stone from the storage bag. After thinking for a moment, he squeezed it into two halves before taking it out, and took out a smaller piece.
"Sir, I know you're on duty, it's hard work, I won't let you talk in vain~~"
He Nian hid a small half of the spirit stone in his sleeve and pointed the sleeve towards the silver-armored monk's face, hoping that he could see the sparkling spirit stone.
But this silver-armored monk would never lower his head even if he died!
After all this communication, He Nian surprisingly didn't make any progress at all! Even she, known as the slippery girl of Bei'an City, felt a little frustrated!
You can't just put the spirit stones in front of him and bribe him openly, right?
In other games, even if you give NPCs some garbage, they will gladly accept it, but in this game, the way of giving gifts must be based on reality, otherwise, it will have the opposite effect!
Or, this person is not good enough and we need to replace him?
In many old role-playing games, there are sometimes two people guarding the gate, but you have to talk to a specific one to trigger the next plot.
This game also uses such an old-fashioned design?
He Nian sighed and prepared to go to another silver-armored monk to find out more.
But before they could get close, a monk in golden armor walked in from outside the door, glanced at the three of them, then grabbed He Nian's arm and pulled her out.
He Nian's first reaction was to scream.
"Alright, my friend from the Cangxia Sect, this is Linjiang City, the capital of the Great Chu Dynasty. If you want to see a map, there are maps at every city gate and at the end of every street! This is the West Outer City. Once you go out and walk in any of the four directions, you'll find a map."
He Nian stopped shouting.
Then, she was pushed to the door by the silver-armored monk and ignored.
The look the silver-armored monk gave her at the end practically had "go have fun by yourself" written all over his face.
The location of the teleportation array is surrounded by two layers of square walls. The opening of the second layer is in the opposite direction of the first layer, which plays a good role in confidentiality.
These silver-armored monks were obviously trained.
"So these NPCs don't have any plot?"
He Nian looked back and noted the location of the teleportation array as if he was remembering a parking space in an unfamiliar underground garage. Then he walked onto the street.
Well...boom!!!
He Nian's first feeling was prosperity!!
People come and go, cars go in and out! It's many times more prosperous than Bei'an City!
Peddlers, peddlers pulling carts selling pulp, laborers in plain clothes, yellow-chinned children, young men in fancy clothes, beautiful women with jade hairpins...
The buildings on the street are of a completely different style!!!
In Bei'an City, most buildings have shops on the first or second floors facing the street, with people living upstairs and those with the necessary backyards raising poultry and growing vegetables. But in Linjiang City, the streets are all smooth, paved with stone slabs!
The buildings on this side of the street are all shops without exception! !
The residents' homes are all in other residential areas!!
On the streets, there are cleaners who are constantly cleaning up the dirt dropped by vehicles, and sprinklers who are spraying water to prevent dust from flying everywhere.
He Nian decided to walk around like a tourist first.
After all, this isn't the real world, and my physical strength is pretty good! I don't have to worry about my feet hurting from high heels!
The silver-armored monk returned to the entrance of the teleportation array and said, "If another Cangxia Sect monk arrives, we will do the same thing. Do you understand?"
The two silver-armored monks on duty nodded in unison.
"Pay attention, the only people who can appear in this place, besides the Cangxia Sect cultivators, are our Silver Scale Army. Anyone who dares to trespass will be captured first!"
"yes!"
After the silver-armored monk with a higher military rank gave his instructions, he walked out again.
Although the remaining two people did not ask questions, they could not help but wonder why their superiors required them not to contact or talk with the cultivators of Cangxia Sect?
