Strange World Survival Manual

Chapter 402 Visitors from the Imperial City

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Late at night, a dense knock on the door reached Li Si's ears.

When he heard the voice, he sat up from the bed suddenly, looked at the door, frowned slowly, and felt a little wary.

He was a little confused about who was at the door, because only Zhang Yuan and Prime Minister Tao knew about this house.

But when Zhang Yuan and the others came in, they didn't have the habit of knocking on the door. They just jumped over the wall.

As for the Prime Minister, that is even more impossible. He just met Tao Ziyu and the others not long ago.

There is no need for Tao Ziyu to see him now.

Thinking of this, he put on his clothes with doubts and slowly approached the door without making any sound.

He planned to observe it first before speaking.

"Is Grandmaster Li here?" At this time, a high-pitched voice came to Li Si's ears.

Li Si was slightly startled, with a strange look in his eyes. He had never heard such a sound before.

This... feels a bit like a legendary eunuch?

Thinking of this, he slowly opened the door.

He has done nothing wrong recently, so he is naturally not afraid of ghosts knocking on his door.

And if it was a human, he would be even less afraid.

After the door opened, Li Si saw an old eunuch in red robe standing at the door. He was holding a lantern and looking at Li Si with a smile.

"Is this Grandmaster Li?" The old eunuch asked with a smile when he saw Li Si.

Hearing the old eunuch's words, Li Si nodded and said, "Yes, I am Li Si. I wonder what this father-in-law wants from me?"

He had some doubts in his heart. Although he wanted to enter the imperial city, he never took action. Naturally, he had no communication with the people in the imperial city.

But now that this person appeared, it made him feel a little strange.

Hearing Li Si's inquiry, the old eunuch smiled, then took out a scroll and handed it to Li Si and said: "Grandmaster Li, the emperor heard about your incident in Fengmen County, so he specially asked me to call you over. He I want to see you alone.”

Hearing the old eunuch's words, Li Si was slightly startled, and suddenly realized that Zhang Yuan had already started to do that.

However, when I first did this, I thought it would take a month or two, but I didn't expect that Zhang Yuan would be so fast.

But when he suddenly realized, he was also a little surprised. He now knew the source of luck.

And now the emergence of woodblock printing may make his luck even further.

Moreover, he had a little bit of caution in mind. Since the emperor allowed himself to enter the capital, he would most likely have a chance to come into contact with the dragon chair.

If you can get in touch with the dragon chair at this time, you will most likely be able to get the soul point there.

Thinking of this, Li Si's face showed a look of astonishment. Then he took the scroll, glanced at it, and after confirming that it was correct, he said, "His Majesty the Emperor wants to see me?"

Seeing the stunned look on Li Si's face, the old eunuch nodded with satisfaction. He had seen this look on many people's faces.

It seems that His Majesty the Emperor is likely to get what he wants today.

"Yes, His Majesty the Emperor wants to see you, Grandmaster Li, you must seize this wealth!" The old eunuch nodded, and then said meaningfully.

Seeing what the old eunuch said, Li Si smiled and said, "In that case, please ask my father-in-law to take me there."

He doesn't care about wealth. If he wants to live comfortably, he can do it anytime.

Seeing what Li Si said, the old eunuch smiled and walked towards the imperial city with a lantern in the early hours.

Li Si followed behind him.

Li Si followed the old eunuch while thinking about the whole story.

He suddenly felt a little weird at this time. It was understandable that the emperor summoned him. After all, he created the engraving and printing technology.

But why did the emperor take him there in the middle of the night and see him alone? Even just an old eunuch was sent.

"It's like I'm avoiding someone..." Li Si said to himself, probably coming up with some clues.

If there is anyone to avoid in the capital, there is no one except Tao Ziyu.

"Is this the situation between the monarch and his ministers?" Li Si felt a little unsure of what to say.

It seems that the seemingly peaceful Weidu is already turbulent underneath.

While Li Si was thinking, the old eunuch led him through the streets and under the imperial city.

When the old eunuch approached, a small door under the imperial city slowly opened.

"Grandmaster Li, let's go in." Seeing the small door open, the old eunuch turned around and said to Li Si.

Hearing the old eunuch's words, Li Si nodded, and then glanced at the street behind him with his peripheral vision.

At this time, behind him there were various evil spirits standing on the eaves, looking directly at him.

These evil spirits were constantly attracted by the old eunuch when he was walking with him.

It's just that these evil spirits have always been following behind the two of them, and have no intention of harming themselves and others.

But at this time, what made Li Si feel a little scared was that the City God also looked over.

"Okay." He nodded to the old eunuch, and then followed the old eunuch into the heavily guarded imperial city.

Entering the imperial city, Li Si saw a group of soldiers staring at him with eager eyes.

"Is this?" He frowned slightly and paused.

These soldiers looked well-trained and did not look like ordinary soldiers.

And looking at the looks of these soldiers, it seemed like he was their enemy.

Hearing Li Si's inquiry, the old eunuch paused, then turned around and said, "Grandmaster Li, it's okay. These soldiers are all here to protect us."

Seeing the old eunuch say this, Li Si understood something in his heart, and then felt a little bit dumbfounded.

Why are you protecting yourself and this eunuch? These soldiers were clearly created by the emperor who was afraid of assassinating him.

"This is so beautifully said. It is indeed worthy of being from the palace." Li Si was speechless.

Then he glanced at the soldiers and found that there were hundreds of soldiers here.

These soldiers are all well-trained and appear to be from the same military branch. They are probably the best soldiers among a hundred.

If he is surrounded by this group of soldiers, he will suffer a lot.

"Okay, let's go to the emperor." Li Si nodded to the old eunuch.

Seeing his reaction, the old eunuch breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that the grandmaster would do something irrational because he was young and energetic.

Then he continued to lead Li Si towards the palace.

But at this time, there were hundreds of soldiers wearing iron armor escorting them.

Li Si walked in the palace and felt that it was no different from the palace he had seen in his previous life.

It's just that the palace wall here is higher.

But what made Li Si feel a little relieved was that there were no ghosts here, which made him feel relieved.

But he had some regrets in his heart. With these soldiers accompanying him, he might not have the chance to sneak to the emperor's throne.

Then, the old eunuch led Li Si and a group of soldiers through many palace walls, and finally stopped outside a palace.

"We are here, Grandmaster Li." The old eunuch stopped and turned to Li Si and said.

After hearing the old eunuch's words, Li Si slowly raised his head and saw a plaque hanging on the palace in front. The words on the plaque flashed faintly under the moonlight.

"Jingsi Pavilion."
