Chapter 1993 The Bumpy Road
When Zhu Feng heard this, he immediately lifted the curtain and stuck his head out.
In the setting sun, a tall earthen city stood on the horizon.
It is unknown how long the earthen city has been abandoned. Under the wear and tear of time and wind and sand, it has long been incomplete. But even so, it is still majestic and tall, even more majestic and powerful than Bailong City.
Yumen Pass...
It is Yumen Pass after all.
The once majestic fortress still retains its former majesty even after the passage of time.
When Nan Yan first saw the incomplete city wall under the setting sun, the first thing she thought of was a place she had been to before.
Deserted city.
She still remembered that she was abducted to the Kingdom of Dian and later followed the King of Dian, Monk, to Baihu City in order to meet the King of Dian as soon as possible so as to find out her life experience - of course, she later found out that this was just a means for them to deceive her.
However, by that time, they had already arrived at the deserted city.
For some reason, when she saw this scene under the setting sun, she seemed to be back in the past, trapped in the deserted city on that dark night. The feeling of not being able to find a way out and escape was suffocating.
She couldn't help but frown.
Zhu Feng, who was sitting next to her, was also staring at the Tucheng outside under the setting sun in a trance, and an indescribable feeling of suffocation rose in his heart. Immediately, he also felt the change in Nan Yan's breath beside him, and lowered his head to look at her.
"Nan Yan?"
Seeing Nan Yan's serious expression, he whispered, "What's wrong?"
“…”
"what's on your mind?"
“…”
Nan Yan was speechless. She only looked up at him. Under the red light of the setting sun, her face turned a little pale. She said softly, "I don't know why, but I feel a little uncomfortable there."
"oh?"
Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly. He looked at Nan Yan, then at Yumen Pass in the distance. After thinking for a while, he said, "Or you can just stay here. I'll go over and take a look before coming back."
"this--"
Nan Yan was still a little hesitant.
After all, it would be a shame to come all this way without even going inside. Besides, she also wanted to see what Yumen Pass looked like.
Just as he was hesitating, there was another sound of horse hooves outside. It seemed that someone ran over and said something to Ye Zheng. Ye Zheng responded in a very low voice.
Zhu Feng asked, "What's wrong?"
Ye Zheng then walked back to the window and whispered, "The scouts reported that the next section of the road to Yumen Pass is very bumpy. They originally wanted to clear the rocks from the road, but they found that they were all large rocks deeply rooted in the ground and could not be dug out in a short time."
"oh?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Feng lifted the curtain and took a look.
There are no wild grass or shrubs on this piece of land, only a vast wasteland. There are many sharp corners of stones on the ground, making the road look bumpy.
If a carriage were to drive on a road like this, it would probably break apart before going very far.
Not to mention the people in the carriage.
Zhu Feng glanced down at Nan Yan, then said, "Otherwise, don't go over there."
“…”
When Nan Yan heard this, her eyebrows drooped.
Zhu Feng said softly, "It just so happens that you don't like that place either. This road can only be crossed by horseback. How can you ride a horse in your current condition?"
“…”
"obedient."
Nan Yan had no choice but to pout: "Then who will the emperor take with him?"
