Chapter 152

Wu Chen looked at the image on the slate, the story on the slate tells the development process of a tribe turning into a city, just like the current Yanbei, gradually developing from a tribe of a thousand people, after becoming strong, this tribe annexed all the surrounding tribes, and then turned into a city, and then destroyed the surrounding cities and became a country.

Seeing this, Wu Chen's first thought in his mind turned out to be the city of Zhongzhou, he licked his lips and said: "This image should represent the witch of the tribe, you see that this picture is a sacrifice." ”

Before the two of them finished discussing the murals, they heard a voice, faintly heard,

"You come with me." A man dressed in white came out of the main hall, his footsteps without any sound, like a ghost, and suddenly came.

Walking on the marble floor, you can vaguely see your own figure from the ground, and the huge brazier in the hall is placed on the huge white stone pillars on both sides, the flames are blazing, and the sparks jump as if they are about to fly out of the brazier.

There are no statues of gods, because it was the custom of the ancient countries, and although they already had a great skill in carving, they never carved statues of gods.

God is a magical being, he has no face, he should not be a human being.

In this ornate temple, there was a statue that stood strangely, this statue had a fluttering robe, and there was no joy or sorrow in his eyes, it seemed that he had just managed a battle and was tired, and had just led his people to victory over a powerful enemy.

Yue Lin thought of the stone mural he had just seen in front of the gate, this statue should be the man who created this country in that story, the face of the statue has been unable to see clearly because of the passage of time, and Yue Lin admires this man in his heart.

Under such difficult conditions, defeat all the surrounding city-states and establish such a state, and now this country is above everyone, this person will still be remembered by the people of Carthage even if he dies, and he can enjoy the same treatment as the ancestral gods in this temple.

What will Yanbei become in the hands of himself and Wu Chen?

One city is enough.

Everyone was respectful, just like the ministers of the early dynasties in ancient China, standing in the hall of the main hall in an orderly manner, and Yue Lin and Wu Chen stood at the end, probably because it was a new city, and its status was naturally ranked behind the other cities.

Cang Yan was just standing slightly in front of Yue Lin and the others, and from the back, he looked a little lonely and depressed.

The last time I came, I was just a child standing next to my father, but now I was representing Rab City to participate in this pilgrimage.

The old man held a wooden board with a snow-white paper on it, and walked up to the high platform in an old state, squinted a pair of cloudy eyes and glanced down, and then opened a wrinkled mouth tremblingly.

There was no wave in his eyes, just calmly and abnormally sketching on the paper, and after a moment, he shouted, "Who's that...... Which city are you? ”

Following the direction of the old man's finger, he pointed straight at Yue Lin and Wu Chen.

Wu Chen frowned, with a bad look on his face, Yue Lin hurriedly pulled Wu Chen's hand.

"We are from Yanbei City, and I am the city lord of Yanbei City."

Wu Chen's figure is unusually tall in this group of people, his eyebrows are heroic, and the whole person is like a knife, extremely sharp.

The old man nodded slightly, and said in an indifferent voice, "What about the city lord of Xiangsui?" ”

"The city lord of Xiangsui is dead." The attendant who led everyone into the temple whispered in the old man's ear.

Wu Chen stepped forward slowly, frowning, he didn't believe that this person really didn't know that Xiangsui City had long ceased to exist because of the slave rebellion, he said faintly: "There is only Yanbei, there is no Xiangsui." ”

The old man in the burgundy witch suit stared at Wu Chen for a while, then looked down at the paper in his hand, his eyes were confused, he pulled the little witch beside him and asked, "Pampol and Puluo are not there?" ”

I only heard the little witch say, "Pampole and Puluo have been witched...... Control. ”

Hearing Wu Chan's name, a trace of coldness flashed in the old man's eyes, like the fierce appearance of a poisonous snake when it found its prey, and then he sneered and said: "Even if he has two cities, he should come to Carthage to worship, it seems that someone has forgotten the dignity of Carthage and cannot be violated." ”

Xiao Wu laughed, but his heart was full of disdain.

Who doesn't know that the Wu Gui family was destroyed, and you contributed the most? If Wu Chan dares to come back, the old man is afraid that he will be the first to catch Wu Chan and kill him, and let Wu Chan worship Carthage, unless he has something wrong with his head......

Otherwise, who will run back and throw themselves into the net?

Wu Xiang is from Carthage, so Wu Xiang's brother Wu Chan naturally also comes from here, but I don't know why, they left here, and it seems that the other party hates them very much, Yue Lin thought of what Qing Yuan had said about the state of this country, about the marshal to fight, many people fled the ancient country of Carthage because of this, and had to be displaced in other cities, Wu Xiang and Wu Chan should also be because of this incident.

The worship ceremony was so simple that Yue Lin couldn't believe it, and then a little witch took Yue Lin and Wu Chen to visit the temple.

Yue Lin is not interested in visiting the ancient culture here, but this building has exceeded Yue Lin's cognition of this era, the top floor of this witch temple is hollow out, if it rains in the sky, it can fall directly, which reminds Yue Lin of Wu Chan's home, it seems to be this kind of structure.

"Why isn't it closed here, isn't it a hassle when it rains?"

Xiao Wu Qingxiu's face explained with a smile: "Because Wu Qi said that if you cover the top and can't see the sky, then the god can't see us, and the ancestral god must be watching us in the sky, so don't top it, when worshipping, no matter the wind and rain, it is a treasure given by the ancestral god." ”

"So we can get closer to the gods."

Witches?

Is it a name unique to Carthage?

In the night, Yue Lin and Cang Yan sat at a table and ate.

"I said, did we come to Carthage just to bow down and worship the gods?" Yue Lin was a little speechless, although he has been in Carthage for the past few days, he basically has nothing to do, and even the real high-level of Carthage has not been able to go to one, except for the old man who appeared when he organized the worship that day, and learned the identity of the old man from the mouth of the little witch.

It's a witch with a bit of identity in the temple.,At the same time, it's also the head of a noble family.。

Cang Yan shook his head and explained: "I have asked my father this question before, and the pilgrimage to Carthage is for a purpose, and we can learn a lot here, but of course the premise is that we will also give something. ”

Yue Lin was inexplicable, "For example?" ”

"I see that you go out every day like people in other cities, and I thought you knew ......"

Cang Yan looked at Yue Lin speechlessly, and then continued: "What you learn can help us develop the city, and no one will know if you learn it secretly, and even if you do, Carthage will turn a blind eye." ”

"Why is that?" The more Lin looked at Cang Gully strangely, why did the ancient country seem to be like a selfless Virgin, and the more Lin didn't believe that this country would be such a kind country......

"Why do you think the ancient kingdom wants us to come here, what we know, as long as they find it useful, they will also ask us to give them the method of making things!"

"I think they'll find you soon......"

Cang Yan felt the sound of thousands of troops and horses in his ears, and he shuddered at the thought of the power of the terrible bed crossbow and the mammoth giant elephant that was shot. He felt that he couldn't see through the witch of the Black Flame tribe in front of him, and the more he approached the witch.

Such a lethal weapon, even in the ancient country of Carthage, has never heard of it! What kind of place is the 'city' or 'country' where Yue Lin once lived? And why did such a powerful 'city' and 'country' collapse, allowing Yue Linwu to flee?

Yue Lin sat down, his face was not very good, it turned out that this was the purpose of the ancient country of Carthage, the power of the bed crossbow has long been famous all over the world, it is impossible for the ancient country not to know, as long as Carthage is not stupid, the weapon of great destruction will ask Yanbei to make the method.

Sure enough, it is a good hand of chess, no wonder Carthage allowed the development of the surrounding cities, and even helped the development of some cities, as long as the people in the city have good things, they must give Carthage for free, and if you want to learn something in Carthage, you have to rely on your own skills, steal learning?!

Yue Lin knew that the bed crossbow was not widely known by Carthage, after all, it was a sharp weapon for siege and defense of the city, and Carthage might let others learn his weaving skills, but he would never let the weapon that might pose a threat to himself let the world know what he did.

Can you only compromise?

Yue Lin smiled bitterly.

Sure enough, there was still no way.

This is a country, but Yanbei is just a city.

After another three days, as expected, the people of Carthage came looking for him.

It was a young man with green eyes shining with starlight, fiery red hair like fire, fair skin like a baby, and a little freckles on his cheeks.

Following the red-haired boy, the more he walked between the avenues, he saw the surrounding green trees, the sound of birds, and the vines in this courtyard are the best decorations.

In the main hall, the sound of water was murmuring, and a man was holding a wine glass and sitting on his throne.

If it's just ordinary things, you don't need a man to come, but the power of the bed crossbow is spread in the Zhongzhou area, and the thing that can shoot the mammoth giant elephant is exciting to think about, and it can't help but attract the attention of Marshal Carthage.

Coming to the door of a gorgeous hall, the red-haired young man's voice was a little soft, and he said, "Marshal Bo Jilie is inside, you can go in quickly!" Don't keep the adult waiting, his temper is not very good. ”

Yue Lin nodded, the clothes on his body had been changed to the clothes worn by the ancient country witch, the white robe wrapped around Yue Lin's body, but it still made the young man feel uncomfortable, the clothes and bracket style of the ancient country witch were similar, but they were more thick and gorgeous.

I didn't want to wear such clothes, but the reminder of Cang Gully was still in my ears, and all the foreign witches in Carthage had to wear such clothes to show their respect for the ancestral gods of Carthage.

One arm is exposed to endure the cold wind, and one hand is placed inside, you must hold your hand, otherwise the fat sleeves will fall to the ground immediately, and the more you feel uncomfortable wearing such clothes, it is better to wear a linen!

Bo Jilie's blue eyes had a slight smile on his face, he stared at the person who walked in, a strange face, black hair and black eyes were very different from people of different colors in Carthage, he put down the wine glass in his hand, his voice was cold, and said, "You are the witch of Yanbei City?" ”

"Yes, sir." Yue Lin wanted to be as respectful as possible, but the marshal didn't intend to let Yue Lin go like this.

"Why don't you get on your knees?"

Yue Lin heard Bo Jilie's words, and suddenly felt a little confused, and how many times did he kneel down so far? I don't know, and it doesn't matter anymore.

“…… Sorry, it's the first time I've come to Carthage, and I don't know the rules very well. "Get down on one knee

A smile flashed in Bo Jilie's eyes, and he said, "You are so interesting, you are obviously reluctant, but you kneel so naturally." ”

“…… The marshal misunderstood, and I was not reluctant. ”

Bo Jilie didn't seem to want to continue discussing this issue, but just laughed and said, "Get up." ”

Quint glared at Bo Jilie a little eagerly, and reminded his friend to hurry up and ask how to make the crossbow|, and nothing else was the point.

Bo Ji was aware of his friend's thoughts, and he no longer talked nonsense with Yue Lin, "I heard that during the Seven Cities War, you took 5,000 people to defend Yanbei City. ”

The man's tone was flat and straightforward, and he couldn't see what this person was thinking at the moment, so he could only nod back with a stubborn head: "Yes." ”

"The power of the ballista is good."

"Yes."

The point is finally here.

"You know the reason why I came to you, how to make the bed|crossbow|, you must hand it over." A sentence was like an order, Bo Jilie bowed his head slightly, and said.

Yue Lin, who had already scolded people in his heart, had already been prepared in his heart, but he was still unhappy when he saw the other party ordering him so highly.

With a smile on his face, but in his heart he was scolding the man in front of him, who had no one in his eyes, about thirty-five or sixteen, but his domineering personality was really annoying!

……

The eyes that were smiling just now have changed their faces at this time, and their faces are cold.

"Gwent." Seeing Yue Lin leaving, Bo Jilie called out, the people around him, "This Yue Lin Wu is Yanbei who went later?" ”

"In about two years, can't you take a good look at the information I gave you?" Quint raised his forehead and questioned his friend.

Bo Jilie said cheekily: "It's enough for you to watch." ”

"Since he is a foreign witch, he shouldn't have much affection for this Yanbei City, and find a way to keep him in Carthage."

"I'm afraid this is a little difficult, he and the city lord of Yanbei City are a husband and wife." Quint said with a shrug.

"Try it first, if it doesn't work, kill it directly, Carthage doesn't need a potential threat."

"I'll arrange it."

Quint turned around and walked out the door, and the Yue Linwu from the country town came to his mind, and he always felt as if he had seen this person?

"But a little witch who has just turned from a tribe into a city, how can he see it?"

……

Bo Jilie thought of the appearance of the little witch from Yanbei just now, and laughed, he looked good, but unfortunately he could only kill if he didn't want to stay.

Being able to make such a sharp weapon as a bed crossbow gave Carthage a reason to keep this man in the service of Carthage.

The night is slightly cool.

"Coming back?" Wu Chen pulled Yue Lin into his arms with concern, and only after confirming that Yue Lin was unharmed did he feel at ease.

"Why should I see you alone? What did they say? ”

Yue Lin: "I just asked about the production of the crossbow bed, and also talked about our wolf, nothing else." ”

Wu Chen hugged Yue Lin and didn't speak, it turned out that after it became a city, there was such a behemoth behind him, as long as it asked for it, it had to be given unconditionally, otherwise it could only be destroyed, what a domineering country, domineering Carthage.

The next day, before Yue Lin went out, he saw a familiar face appear in front of him, it was the great Carthaginian nobleman who had been by his side yesterday.

"Hello, Yue Linwu, my name is Quent." Quint is ordinary-looking, and although he tries his best to show his friendliness, it is still difficult to hide the arrogance in his eyes.

Yue Lin knew that since he came to this country, he had to endure the scrutiny, ridicule, and contempt of others all the time, but at this time, Yue Lin was used to it, not to mention that the person in front of him was still a great noble of Carthage.

"Hello, Quint-sama didn't know anything about it so early?"

Quint was stunned for a moment, and wrote lightly: "Passing by." ”

"Then let's go first, Carthage is really a beautiful city, and we haven't had a chance to take a good look at this city yet." Yue Lin pulled Wu Chen out, wanting to leave the sight of this fox-like man immediately.

Seeing Yue Lin leaving, Quint frowned and said to himself, "Why doesn't this person seem to like talking to me?" ”

"Hey, my lord, is there anything I can do to help you?"

When Quint heard this call, he was secretly satisfied, this is what those Zhongzhou people should look like! Shouldn't the people of Zhongzhou rush to Carthage and beg Carthage to take them?

This Yue Linwu really doesn't look like a Zhongzhou person!

Not like a Zhongzhou person?!

Quint was taken aback by his own thoughts.

"Those information, this kid suddenly came to Yanbeiluo, and then suddenly came to Zhongzhou with Yanbeibei, he was not from Zhongzhou in the first place! It's not the people of the northern Yanbei tribe! ”

"Damn, shit!"

"I remember! I remember! That portrait! That portrait! Portrait of an old witch! ”
