The two of them sat on the flying device until they reached a town. Then, they disembarked and walked towards the city gate. Seeing many people lined up in front of them, Duan Ye looked at Fengjiu.
"We didn't have a good rest last night. Let's rest here for the night! They'll take care of the Heavenly Pill Building, so you don't have to worry too much. "
Fengjiu smiled. "That's good too. Anyway, there's nothing much to do now. I'm just afraid that my brother and Mo Chen will be worried about me." As she spoke, she looked towards the city and said, "Later, let's enter the city and see if there's a branch of the Tianyuan Palace. If there is, let them send a message back so that they won't be worried at home."
"Then let's also send a message to Song Ming and the others. Tell them that I've left the sect to follow you." He looked at her and said.
"That's fine too."
She nodded. The two of them walked forward together and followed the people lining up to the city gate. Looking at the city gate guards who seemed to be searching for something, her eyes moved slightly. She said, "Those people seem to be looking for something."
It was normal for there to be guards at the city gate. However, searching people's bodies like this was a little too much, especially when there were some women among them. It was really outrageous to let one or two male guards search their bodies.
Duan Ye looked to the front and saw that some of the women from ordinary families had heard that they would be searched after entering the city gate, so they all retreated back. Some of the female cultivators walked forward, but the guards did not dare to be too presumptuous, and only roughly sized them up before letting them go.
"I'm really not hiding anything on me. I'm just carrying my sister. We're entering the city to find a doctor. My family lives in a small mountain village not far from the city. Really, I'm just an ordinary woman." A plainly dressed woman was carrying a seven or eight-year-old girl wrapped in a sheet. When she saw the guard's outstretched hand, she could not help but retreat as she explained.
What kind of woman would be willing to be searched by a man like this? Even if she was not a cultivator and was just an ordinary person, she would not be willing to be taken advantage of like this.
"Who knows if you're telling the truth? It's not peaceful in the city these days. Everyone has to be checked carefully. It's the same for men and women. " A city guard said and pushed the woman arrogantly. "It's fine if you don't want to be checked. Hurry up and move aside. Don't block the path of the people behind you."
There were almost no young women in the queue. However, when some of the older women came forward, those people simply looked at them and waved their hands to let them pass. Obviously, they had no interest in the older women.
"I hear that a good number of people have died in the city recently. That is why the city is under martial law. Everyone who goes in and out is checked. However, the actions of these people are too obvious. They dare not offend the female cultivators and have no interest in touching the older women.
"That's right. There was a teenage girl from our village who wanted to enter the city to buy medicine for her father. She was stopped by these people and taken advantage of quite a bit. When she went back, her eyes were swollen from crying. These days, some young girls won't enter the city for no reason. Even if they have something to do, they will ask others to do it for them.
... .................... Cultivators don't dare to provoke them, so they can only let us ordinary people suffer. "
The two old men and the man standing in front of Fengjiu and Duan Ye whispered. Their gazes swept past the crowd in front of them and landed on the woman carrying the girl on her back. They then glanced at the city guards.
