Chapter 297: The Sea God Returns

The side of Orca City is two kilometers long. Zhu Monkey led people to work intermittently, and it was not fully completed until recently, and it was used for ten years. The vermilion monkey deliberately showed off in front of Lin Ji, so many details of Killer Whale City had not been reported to Lin Ji before.

"I listened to your suggestion before, and the place in this city is higher. The north side is more than a kilometer away from the Yangtze River, so we built a wharf on the Yangtze River, which is far from the sea, and there are still more than ten kilometers to reach the sea. And it's still in the southeast. Going to sea along the Yangtze River, it will be farther. Fortunately, there is a river flowing down from the mountains to the west, otherwise water would have been a problem. Now we're going to have to climb a little bit into the city. ”

In the place where you can see the killer whale city, the vermilion monkey introduces the situation to Lin Ji.

It is obvious that there will be many inconveniences in building the city near the sea and the river. Building the city on a hillside is also not very convenient for the transportation of materials. However, the Zhu Monkey still listened to Lin Ji's advice, and the killer whales did not complain about it, which can be said to be extremely trusting of Lin Ji.

The killer whale city in the ice and snow on the Yangtze River is like being in the clouds. In the distance, you can see a pier lined with masts in the north of the city. The warehouses and docks on the side of the wharf are connected into a large area, and the surrounding open space is obviously fertile land.

Lin Ji looked around and couldn't help but praise Zhu Monkey for choosing a good place. Although the city will be relatively restrictive to the development of killer whales at present, with this high city as a guarantee by the sea and river, in case the climate warms and the sea level rises, it can also give the residents of killer whales the last protection.

At this time, the sea level was much lower than in later generations, and the current Yangtze River estuary is not the latitude of Shanghai. In fact, the current outlet to the sea may be in the area of the Shengsi Islands in later generations. If the city by the sea were built low, it would indeed facilitate the current development. But if the weather warms up, there's nothing left of this area.

In contrast, building a city on the rear high ground and a wharf and warehouse on the riverside and seaside for fishing and transportation are more conducive to long-term development.

One kilometer from the Yangtze River to the city is uphill. Fortunately, the slope is not large, the snow on the road is cleared, and there is no need to worry about slipping.

The ice and snow on the side of the road were very thick, and Xiao Hei took his child Xiao Huang to run up and down the slope and have a lot of fun. It wasn't until Xiaobai yelled several times that Xiaohei returned to the team with the child in his arms, and he was still dissatisfied with bumping into Xiaobai, thinking that it was too lenient.

When they arrived at the city gate, they did not see anyone who greeted them, but a huge statue on the side of the city gate attracted everyone's attention.

It was a statue of a killer whale, more than a dozen meters long. The ice and snow on the statue have been cleaned clean, and you can see the black skin and white spots on the killer whales painted like real fish. The killer whale makes a gesture of jumping out of the water, and the form is also lifelike. It looks like a real killer whale.

Lin Ji walked over and touched it with his hand, only to find that this huge statue was actually carved from stone, and he couldn't help but praise it.

Zhu Monkey said proudly: "There are all four doors." This one is called Wang Qi, and it is carved in the same way as the one you rode back then. It is also the largest one. ”

"That killer whale can you still see it?" Lin Ji asked with interest.

Zhu Monkey smiled: "I can't see it now, when the ice and snow melt, you can go and see it, maybe I will know you." ”

"How did you get this stone back?" Chen Li and other guards also stepped forward to touch it, and couldn't help but ask after watching.

The weight of such a large stone sculpture is estimated to be hundreds of tons, and he has never seen such a large car in Chaolin City. Even if it is an excavator driven by Lin Ji, it is estimated that it will not work, how did the killer whale people do it?

Zhu Monkey said proudly: "Guess what? ”

"Pulled by boat?"

"It's so far from the river, maybe it's made of rolling log."

"Rolling wood doesn't work, right? The stone is too big. ”

The guards guessed that the red monkey just didn't answer, and pulled the reins of the forest trail into the city.

After entering the city gate cave, Lin Ji still wanted to see the appearance of this city, and suddenly heard a drum, and suddenly the mountain shouted: "The king is mighty!" The king is mighty! The king is mighty! ”

When I looked up again, I saw that on both sides of the streets in the city, there were dense rows of people, and at a glance, I was afraid that there would be no less than 10,000 people. When these people saw the forest ruins, everyone shouted, and some people were so excited that they shed tears.

Some people came from the front, it was Jiao Ke, who was familiar with Lin Ji, Du Yan, Pingli in a wheelchair, a claw plate from the Youge tribe, Changzao who is now in charge of sea salt production, those children of Zhu Monkey, and so on.

Some of these people have not been seen for ten years, and some have traveled to and from Chaolin City, and they have seen each other several times in the past few years. But the appearance is not the same as it was back then. Jiao Ke has a spiritual mustache and looks like a capable middle-aged uncle. Duyan has become quite plump, and his gestures also have his own bearing, like a noblewoman. The flat gravel beard is unkempt, and the broad body is no longer straight, and it looks really old. Pawpan is not young, with a gray beard, but he takes care of himself cleanly, like an old rural cadre in later generations.

Lin Ji dismounted, shook hands one by one, and touched the child's head. Squinted his eyes, he also saw a lame old dog baring his teeth at him, but he was quickly held down by Xiaobai. Xiaobai pinched the old dog's mouth, looked up and down, and after a long time, he seemed to confirm the identity of the old dog, and then let go of the old dog and grinned at the old dog.

The old dog was ravaged by Xiaobai's behemoth for a while, I don't know if he was pinched or recognized Xiaobai, sniffed Xiaobai's feet flatteringly, and then grinned and tilted his head to look at the forest tracks, as if he was also confirming the forest tracks.

"The one we brought?" Lin Ji looked at the old dog, a little afraid to confirm. The dog lost a lot of weight, and the hair on his body was not neat, and it seemed that he did not live much better than a wolf in the wild.

"That's the one that gives birth to a litter every year, and now it's like this." Du Yan explained.

Lin Ji bent down and stretched out his hand, greeting with a flick of his tongue. The old dog hesitated in front of Lin Ji for a while, and finally recognized Lin Ji after a long time, and threw himself into Lin Ji's arms with a whimper, arching back and forth on Lin Ji's stomach.

Lin Ji touched its body and found that it only lost more hair, and its body was quite strong, so he was much more relieved. When I pinched its head again, I found that there were water stains in the corners of its eyes. This made Lin Ji feel a little emotional.

Back then, Lin Ji brought back a few wolf cubs from the wolf's den, and they were almost killed by Baimu's madness. Later, he went to sea with the remaining two, and this one was wounded in the battle before leaving it here. The other one was brought back, but it was killed for biting. How rare is it to be able to meet this wolf that has turned into a dog after ten years, and it still remembers him?

After getting close to the old dog for a while, Lin Rui remounted his horse and signaled to the people along the street. After getting on the horse, he saw several children of the red monkey pounce out, pulling the old dog and tearing it. He could guess how the hairs had fallen out.

Lin Rui smiled and waved at the people along the way, which attracted a burst of shouts in response. It's just that these calls are more mixed, some people call the king, and some people call the sea god. Those who shouted the god of the sea wept with joy one by one, and they were more than several times more pious and excited than those who shouted the king.
