At this time, the wizard continued to speak.
"No, no, no, you can still get in. It's just that your timing is really a bit wrong. You're unlucky. The city gate is strictly checking people entering and leaving at this time."
Zhao Linger was stunned. What the hell? She had only heard about paying attention to the timing of entering the scene. How could she need the right time to enter the city?
Seeing that she was tired after a whole day and was about to rest, she was of course unwilling to give up, so she asked.
"What the hell happened?"
The wizard sighed and spoke.
"It's a long story. There was a theft in the city. The key is that it's just an ordinary theft, but the stolen items are precious treasures from the city's capital. Now the entire city has entered a state of alert, searching everywhere for the murderer. Whether entering or leaving, people are being checked very strictly. It's hard to get in, and even harder to get out."
After hearing this, Li Yang and the others also understood.
Zhao Linger suddenly understood and immediately became suspicious of someone.
What the hell is going on? It's so hard to come to a place to rest, and then this happens. What are they going to do? Should they go or not? This is too difficult.
"Okay, thanks for the reminder. This is indeed not new news for us." Zhao Linger said weakly.
Li Yang began to ponder in his heart, wondering whether he should enter this city?
According to what the mage said just now, if it is true, the city is now under very strict management. If they really go in, it will be fine. But when they are ready to travel the next day, they will definitely have to leave the city. What if they are not allowed to go in then? If they delay for too long, it will be more than worth it.
In comparison, even if they don't go into the city, it is not impossible for them to camp outside the city for a night. It is relatively safer outside the city.
Although it is a bit hard, it will not delay the trip.
At this moment, the wizard smiled and spoke.
"It's indeed a bit troublesome to enter the city at this critical moment. If you two need to continue your journey, you can rest for a night at the temporary camp east of the city. We can travel together and look after each other."
After hearing this, Li Yang had actually made a decision in his heart. It was not necessary to enter this city. He could sleep anywhere. It was just for one night. He could sleep on the Simmons bed or on the floor.
"Ah!" Zhao Linger looked at Li Yang with a hint of pleading in her eyes.
It was as if his eyes were saying, Let's go to the city! Let's go to the city! Let's go to the city!
I don’t want to be a mountain dweller anymore!
Although the tricks in the city are complicated, the roads in the mountains are even more slippery.
Finally, Li Yang sighed.
Although he also wanted to rest, who doesn't want to sleep in a warm big bed?
But you can sleep anytime. Not now. Once you get to the Golden City, you can sleep as long as you want.
"Let's go and take a look. If the city is really like that, it's not impossible for us to stay in the camp nearby for one night." Li Yang said.
Zhao Linger was struck by lightning, and her whole aura became decadent, as if she had aged several years in an instant.
Li Yang looked at him with a smile.
"Oh, you're the daughter of a general, and you've often been out in the wild. You can't be so delicate, right? Even if you're camping in the wild, it doesn't matter where you sleep. You can fall asleep smelling incense or listening to the roars of wild monsters. It's all the same."
"We're all the same, and girls are all delicate! Don't you think of me as a girl?" Zhao Linger retorted.
"Why don't we split up and just disperse here. You go your way and I go mine. Anyway, we are only a day's journey away from the Golden City. You can go directly into the city to rest. I won't stop you." Li Yang suggested.
His expression was very serious and he wasn't joking when he spoke.
There was nothing wrong with parting ways. He could understand that Zhao Linger was very tired and wanted to find a place to rest, but he really didn't want to take any risks.
Zhao Linger stopped talking for a moment after hearing this.
She scratched her hair in frustration.
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. You're the captain, right? I'll listen to you."
"Oh, are you sure? Do you want to? Don't you want to go into the city and have a rest?" Li Yang said.
"No need to rest. What's the point of resting? If it wasn't so late, I would have rushed to Golden City directly. I wouldn't want to sleep at all. If it wasn't for the fact that the journey would be more difficult and dangerous after dark, I would have just given up sleeping." Zhao Linger looked a little out of sorts and could only complain to herself.
Li Yang smiled in his heart.
In fact, Zhao Linger is not particularly spoiled, it’s just that the other party is still too young and really doesn’t want to suffer.
Being able to endure hardship doesn’t mean you want to endure hardship, and being able to accept camping in the wild doesn’t mean you really want to sleep in the wild. You should only do that when you have no other choice.
Who wants to suffer when they can enjoy happiness?
Li Yang also understood her thoughts, but relatively speaking, he was more rational.
"It seems that you two have made your choice." At this time, the wizard in front spoke.
"In that case, I wish you two a safe journey. We'll see each other again someday. If you're both heading to the temporary camp in the East District later, we might see each other again sometime."
After saying that, their team kindly made room for Li Yang and his team to pass through.
Li Yang nodded at them.
Then he rushed directly towards the city.
To be on the safe side, he decided to go over and take a look at the situation before making any plans.
In Li Yang's opinion, what these people said should not be false.
If that doesn't work, they can just go to the temporary camp in the east district and spend the night there.
On the way, Zhao Linger couldn't help but start complaining again.
"Ah, what kind of luck do we have? It feels like everyone is targeting us all the way. We encountered a beast tide, and our mounts were stolen. Now we can't even get through the city gate."
Li Yang laughed.
"Why rush? No matter how difficult it is, we've made it through this journey."
"We'll be in Golden City soon. If nothing goes wrong, it'll be tomorrow. You can enjoy whatever you want when you get there."
The two chatted intermittently along the way, and after a while, the outline of the city finally appeared in front of them!
The second to last stop, Yincheng!
