The wild lion war boat slowly fell, a magnificent giant city stood on the endless wilderness, this giant city is like a huge unicorn entrenched, this unicorn dragon head tiger body, magnificent and magnificent, huge claws as sharp as a razor, three-foot-long fangs, like a barbed scimitar, giving people a fierce and domineering momentum, at the entrance of the unicorn city, a magnificent and huge city gate, open to both sides.

Time destroys its vicissitudes: but he still stands majestically, like an angry-eyed King Kong. He has experienced how many desolations, wind, flowers, snow, and moon prosperity and sadness of people walking tea and coolness. Moss is the trace of the passage of time, the ancient wall blocks the enemy and makes the city impregnable, but on this magnificent city gate, an ancient wooden plaque has gone through the vicissitudes of time, and on its body, you can see the traces of time and war.

On the plaque, three large characters are written on the iron painting silver hook

"Kirin City"

These three words are iron painted with silver hooks, vigorous and powerful, giving people a sense of ancient years.

These three words are powerful and domineering, and the texture of the strong and powerful jumps on the ancient wood, but this word is not completely dull and heavy.

These three words also carry a bit of elegance and agility, as the so-called three points of elegance and seven points of calmness, this is really a good word, this is a peerless masterpiece that shows the simple heritage of Qilin City.

Under the leadership of Qi Mengfan, Xuanyuan Defeated Heaven walked into this magnificent giant city, and walked into this giant city Xuanyuan Defeated Heaven, only to find that this giant city is so prosperous, so magnificent and magnificent, densely populated, grain ships gathered, people are resting in the teahouse, some are watching fortune telling, and some are eating in the rice shop.

There is also the "Wangjia Paper Horse Shop", which sells tomb sweeping offerings, and the boats in the river come and go, end to end, or the slender man pulls, or the boatman rocks the oar, some are full of goods, going upstream, some are berthed on the shore, and are nervously unloading.

A large-scale wooden arch bridge, it has an exquisite structure and a beautiful form. It is like a flying rainbow, hence the name Hongqiao. There was a big boat waiting to cross the bridge. The boatmen were supported by bamboo poles, long poles to hook the bridges, twine ropes to hold the boats, and a few others were busy lowering the masts so that the boats could pass.

The people on the neighboring boat were also pointing and shouting as if they were shouting something. Both inside and outside the ship were busy crossing the bridge. The people on the bridge also stretched out their heads to sweat at the tense scene of crossing the boat. This is the well-known Hongqiao Wharf District, which is bustling with traffic, and is truly a meeting point for land and water transportation.

Lively downtown streets.

With the tall castle tower as the center, the houses on both sides are lined up, and there are tea houses, wine shops, foot shops, butcher shops, temples, public houses, and so on.

In addition, there are medical clinics, car repairs, fortune telling, face trimming and plastic surgery, all walks of life, everything, the head of the big store is also tied to the "Cailou Huanmen" There are businessmen doing business, there are gentry watching the street scene, there are officials riding horses, there are hawkers, there are family members who ride in a sedan chair, there are monks who carry baskets, there are tourists from other towns who ask for directions, there are children in the streets and alleys who listen to and hear stories, there are children of wealthy families who drink in restaurants, there are disabled old people who beg on the edge of the city, men, women and children, farmers and businessmen, three religions and nine streams, everything. Transportation vehicles: sedan chairs, camels, ox and horse carts, rickshaws, Taiping cars, flat-headed cars, all kinds of things. Colors and shapes are displayed in front of people's eyes.

Xuanyuan looked at this bustling giant city, felt the prosperity of the city, he finally felt the prosperity of the big city, and at the same time, he finally understood that compared with this place, the difference between a village and a palace in the North Underworld Town seemed to be.

Further on, they saw a magnificent mansion, and on both sides of the gate of the mansion, two unicorns stood proudly on both sides of the city lord's mansion.

Giving a sense of majesty and solemnity, the group entered the castle lord's mansion after being briefed by the guards.

At the top of the red vermilion lacquer gate, there is a black gold silk nanmu plaque, on which the dragon flies and the phoenix dances with three big characters 'Feng Ya Stream'.

The night of the sky steps is as cool as water, the red candles in the window are swaying, the drizzle outside the window is slanting, and the stagnant water is quietly dripping down the eaves, creating a circle of ripples on the ground, like sighing and retaining. I extinguished the candle, pushed open the creaky window, and sat on the edge of the bed with my knees crossed, staring out the window at the rain falling down. She carried a dim silk lantern in front of her to lead the way, and the whole corridor was pitch black, except for a little light under her feet, and the sound of waves crashing on both sides from time to time, she couldn't see anything clearly. The water droplets splashed from the clear spring on the stone wall fell into the pool, ticking, ticking...... Looming smoke eyebrows, like hatred and joy, delicate and delicate nose, not self-red cherry lips, skin like condensation, cheeks like pink, not a handful of willow waist graceful leaning on the carved wooden fence of the water pavilion. In the midst of the water, the appearance of the country and the city looms. The boat slowly travels along the narrow river. Spring flowers are planted near the water, hanging down slender flower branches, goose-yellow petals shy full of branches, with the breeze blowing across the water, like a girl holding a mirror to take a self-portrait, want to speak and be ashamed. The sun shines through the cherry blossom trees in full bloom, casting kisses like crushed gold, and the dappled shadows of the trees ripple on the surface of the river. A faint spring breeze brings up the snow-like cherry blossoms, fluttering, spinning...... Flying all over the sky, and finally reluctantly drifting into the distance. The fragrance of nothingness floats in the air, evoking reverie, the gentle and clear birdsong is hidden among the shadowy trees and flowers, clear and cheerful, and on the stern, the captain gently rocks the oar, squeaking, and lightly contrasting with the bird's cry. Suddenly, the scenery in front of me changed, and I entered a wide body of water, and there were more ships around me. Most of them are the same canopy boats as us, and there are also a lot of gorgeously decorated cruise ships interspersed among them, the two sides of the embankment are crowded with people, bustling, shops are lined up, customers come and go, and a bustling and lively Qingming river map unfolds in front of you. The lights on both sides are bright, in front of it is a white wall built on the water, about two meters high, covered with black tiles, the wall head is built into undulating waves, the red lacquer door of the moon hole in the middle is hidden, there is the sound of the piano and the music faintly come, the black plaque on the door is written on the two gilded characters of "pear garden". The crystal bead curtain pours out, behind the curtain, someone wears a veil to caress the piano, the piano sound flows between the ups and downs of the fingertips, or virtual or real, changeable, like a quiet stream dripping spring clear and ethereal, exquisitely clear, and then the water gathers into a gurgling strong current, with tenacious vitality through the mountains and mountains, reefs and shoals, into the rolling rivers and seas, and finally tends to be calm, only the leisurely overtones remain, like the waves that the fish leaps over the water surface and splashes occasionally. Amber wine, jasper, golden foot bottle, jade plate, food is picturesque, wine is like a spring, the guqin is rippling, and the bell is dingdong. The main hall is decorated with inverted bell-like flowers, the calyxes are white, the bone china is translucent, and the top of the petals is a circle of different shades of lilac, which seems to be dyed naturally. The cloud-white and clean hall reflects the crystal pearl light as clear as tears, ethereal and illusory, and the beautiful scenery is like a flower across the clouds, making people unable to distinguish where is the real scene and where is the reflection. Dense as silver quills rain silk light veil shrouded the world, a bend of green water like a green Luo jade belt around the forest, the distant mountains are invisible. The rain and dew blow the very slender phoenix tail bamboo, gather into beads, slide down along the elegant and unique leaf tail, the crystal breaks the line generally, knocks on the oil paper umbrella, intermittently, Qingyue is like a lady striking the chime. When the waves are exhausted, the flames of the acacia flowers spread out in the air, and the light flutters and swirls like snow, reflecting the faces of the beauties. Elegant, beautiful, lush, willowy, plump, delicate...... Just like the Hundred Flowers Garden in March, all kinds of beauties gather in a pavilion, full of fragrance. The crystal curtain falls, and the veil hangs.

At this moment, the city lord of Kirin City appeared in the garden.
