Chapter 9: Into the City
Bidding farewell to Shen Qi and the city lord, Luo Tian followed the master he had just recognized, Master Gandalf, and drove to the church in the city. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Speaking of which, although this Yuhang Town is majestic, and its area is comparable to that of the imperial capital, in fact, the scene inside is an eye-opener for Luo Tian, and behind the city wall is actually a farmland that cannot be seen!
But the surprise is a moment, and then all kinds of memories emerge, which is also a feature of this world, almost all cities are like this, most of the living range of human beings, in fact, is within the city walls, and the wild is the world of beasts and even monsters!
Only where the city walls are supported is truly the domain of mankind.
Only a pure city like the imperial capital would not be like this! However, Luo Tian smiled, speaking of which, the imperial capital is no exception, it is enclosed by five satellite cities, plus a defensive outer wall connecting them! Of course, the area of more than a dozen Yuhang towns may not be able to catch up with it combined!
After passing through the farmland and the inner city that is several times smaller, it is really on the street, but it has a bit of the taste of a rural ancient town.
Although there are not many people on the street, it is very lively, children playing, and neighbors walking around and chatting, which makes Luo Tian feel more cordial and more and more looking forward to the future.
Walk straight until you cross a square and come to a temple that looks like a church in the Middle World.
Uncle Li packed up the car, while Luo Tian followed Gandalf up the stairs.
With a squeak, Gandalf casually pushed open the heavy wooden door, and the lights in the church were dim, and Luo Tian was a little uncomfortable.
In the blink of an eye, I saw a chubby priest struggling to sweep the floor in front of a dozen rows of wooden chairs.
"What's the matter, come back tomorrow, didn't you see that Lao Tzu is busy, the old master picked up people!" The fat priest shouted a few words impatiently, and glanced at it by the way, obviously this guy didn't expect Gandalf to come back so soon, and immediately changed his face, and he was cute, "Oh, master, you're back! It's been hard all the way! I'm not lazy at all, you see, how clean I have cleaned this, absolutely spotless!"
"Hmph, it's a mess, you're a lazy guy! It's spotless!" Gandalf flicked his sleeves and pulled Luo Tian behind him, "Come, I'll introduce you to ......"
"Oh, I said master, you've finally opened your mind!" Before Gandalf finished speaking, the fat priest actually stared at Luo Tian's eyes shining, and the gaze containing deep meaning made Luo Tian a little uncomfortable, "I'll just say, it's not good for our two big men to stick to such a big church, it's too unpopular, too lonely!~ I should have found a priest girl to cheer up popularity!
Pastor Sister Nani...... How can there be a girl...... Could it be ...... Luo Tian's right eyelid jumped vigorously.
"Such a beautiful girl, I said teacher, your vision is really good......!
"Chest you ghost, Lao Tzu is a man!"
Luo Tian couldn't cry or laugh here, and he couldn't wait to go up and kick a few feet!
Luo Tian's chickens and dogs are jumping, let's not talk about it for the time being.
There is also a huge military village to the west of Yuhang Town, which is also very lively.
Unlike Yuhang Town, a military town established during the Kingdom of Light, this is a ruined ancient castle left over from ancient times.
The ruins of the original castle are also quite majestic, but due to the baptism of war and the erosion of the years, the original megalithic castle is only a dilapidated stone wall, and these uneven stone walls have been repaired with wooden stakes to form a rudimentary defense system.
Inside the stone walls, some large and small rubble thatched huts are scattered in a mess, seemingly scattered, but faintly divided into four areas, three residential areas of different sizes, arching a ruined fortress in the center in a zigzag shape.
That fortress was the headquarters of the 109th Regiment of the Garrison.
The same mix of wood and stone, but the defense is very tight, the wooden arrow tower occupies all the main points, and on the bright side is also ten steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, all the way to a simple hall in the depths of the fortress.
"Commander, the barbarians suddenly attacked the caravan this time, and there seems to be some ulterior motive in it!" In front of the square table in the main hall, a middle-aged man in black robe thought in a low voice, but he looked up and saw the bearded strong man lying on the front seat leaning on his neck, drinking the small wine in the wine jug, his face suddenly fell, "Lord Lin, did you listen to what I said!"
"Haha, Brother Duan, don't be so serious, okay!" The strong man pursed his lips and savored it for a while, before putting down the wine jug and sitting upright, "The barbarians have always been like this, and the old brother is not unaware, if they don't rely on blackmailing caravans and replenishment points, how can they survive in the wilderness, don't make a fuss!" We have a deal with them!"
The middle-aged black-robed man still frowned, shook his head and said: "Having said that, I always feel that it is not so simple, for the sake of a convoy, the barbarians actually poured out of the nest, and even Ge Luojiao actually went out in person, such a big formation, it is a bit unbelievable! Besides, this time, they haven't notified us in advance! If it weren't for the brothers who went out hunting and happened to bump into us, I'm afraid we would still be in the dark! There is inevitably something hidden in this!"
Captain Na Lin also gradually became more serious, and put down the wine jug in his hand, "Well, what my brother said is that it is indeed a bit abnormal! Could it be that there are some great treasures in the convoy?!" However, then he himself shook his head and vetoed, "No! Those barbarians are very closed to news, even if there are really any rare things in the convoy, the barbarians will not get the news! In this kingdom of light, besides us, who else is willing to deal with those barbarians?! Old Duan, there is indeed something strange in this!"
The middle-aged man surnamed Duan nodded, "There must be a reason for the barbarians to suddenly pour out of the nest, but at the moment, it is all speculation, and when Camp Commander Du and Camp Commander Yun come back, they should know the reason! cough cough ......" The middle-aged man coughed sharply as he spoke, and his face showed a strange flush.
"Brother, don't worry about it! Look at you, the old injury has flared up again, hurry back and rest and rest!"
"Ahem...... It's okay!" The middle-aged man surnamed Duan touched his lips with a handkerchief and said with a smile, "Old problem, I know it in my heart, calculate the time, it's almost over, it is estimated that Camp Commander Du and they will arrive soon, ask me clearly and then rest!"
At this moment, there was a lively cheer outside the door, which seemed noisy.
I saw that Battalion Commander Du walked into the hall with a helpless young man in his arms, and before Commander Lin could ask, he was already shouting happily, "Commander, guess what, who is this kid!?"
"This is ......" Regiment Leader Lin opened his somewhat hazy drunken eyes and thought for a moment, then frowned, "Guess what?!What kind of fame do you kid, Lao Tzu knows that this little guy is that green onion?! Hurry up and say, who is it?!"
Battalion Commander Du smiled, "Regiment Commander, this is the officer supplemented by our regiment!"
"Cut, who should I be?!" A midshipman officer ......" Regiment Commander Lin sat back in his seat, picked up the wine jug and took a sip, his eyes suddenly lit up, "You said that this is an officer who was replenished by the military department to our regiment?!" The military department has not forgotten us!"
And the middle-aged man surnamed Duan on the side smiled, "Regiment Commander, don't be happy too early, Battalion Commander Du is so happy, it shouldn't be as simple as supplementing the officer, I'm afraid the identity of this little brother is not simple, right?!"
"Haha, it's still the chief of staff's glasses that are poisonous!" Battalion Commander Du gave a thumbs up, patted Xiao Douding's shoulder, and said affectionately: "Boss, look at the kid, he is a little thinner, but his face is very similar to Da Han!"
"What are you talking about?!Dahan?!" Regiment Leader Lin suddenly stood up from his seat and stared at Li Dou with a shocked expression, "Are you......?" Little Beans?!"
