Chapter 69: The Night Watchman

"Soon! This land will become the most prosperous place in the wasteland! Tang Ge patted the railing and muttered.

"It's spectacular! With such a high gate and such a thick city wall, I'm afraid that any kind of enemy can block the outside! Also climbing high and overlooking the green mountains also touched the railing, and said with a sigh.

Tang Ge glanced at Qingshan meaningfully and asked, "Do you think that the enemies have all been killed under the city, how much effect can these city walls play?" ”

Qingshan glanced at Tang Ge in surprise and said, "Aren't you going to put so much effort into building the city wall and this city gate to guard against enemies and beasts?" ”

Tang Ge shook his head and said, "No! ”

"Why is that!?" Xiaoya, who was also climbing high and looking into the distance, interjected and asked.

"It's for ease of management and it's a status symbol. From now on, this inner city is the world of our Banpo dolphin, if you want to pass through this city gate, you must be allowed by our Banpo dolphin, as for wanting to settle in the city? Tang Ge sneered, stomped the bluestone under his feet, and said, "From now on, this gate under our feet is the dragon gate on the wasteland!" If you can pass through this gate, you will be considered to be in heaven! I can't get by...... Sooner or later, we will fall into the hands of men! So, just wait for the people of the whole wasteland to come up and confront us! ”

"I don't understand......" The dog, who was also climbing high and looking into the distance, stretched his neck and said with a blank face.

In these days, it is common to climb high and look far away, but who has ever seen a ten-meter-high building? Therefore, all the people who had time climbed up this tall building to see the strangeness, and crowded a city gate building. Tang Ge shook his head, at this time, the city gate tower was full of people, it was really not the time to express his feelings, he could only sigh, and went down from the tall building with a look of obscurity on his face, leaving Qingshan and their faces confused.

On the eve of the full moon, all the Banpo dolphin tribes have returned to the tribe, and the next day there will be a migration ceremony, after the holy fire is placed on the altar of the holy fire city, there will be a grand sacrifice, and the tribe is indispensable during the sacrifice. Although they had been preparing for a long time, on the eve of the migration, the tribesmen were still very excited, and they even spoke in a higher tone.

All the things of Tang Ge's family have been moved, so they can only make up for one night at Qingguo's house. Qingguo's house is stuffy and hot, there are a lot of mosquitoes, the bed is hard and there is a musty smell, it is very uncomfortable to lie down, plus Tang Ge is in a turbulent mood, he didn't fall asleep after tossing for half the night, so he simply got up and shopped.

A round of the bright moon will be round and not round, will be a clear light sprinkled to the world, the shadow of the dark night is more than half-slope dolphin illumination, and the bluestone road reflects the cold light in the moonlight.

The whole Banpo dolphin's road Tang Ge couldn't be more familiar, but fortunately he didn't light a torch, so he walked around under the moonlight. After many remediations, the Banpo dolphin is as beautiful as a garden, and now under the moonlight, it exudes a hazy beauty. Unfortunately, after tomorrow, this place will be abandoned. In the future, the Holy Flame City will definitely be ten times more beautiful than here, and this land where the ancestors shed their blood does not know what it will be ruined into.

A faint sadness surged into Tang Ge's heart. People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. Since you want the clan to live a better life, you have to make changes, and the big guy has long been looking forward to this day, but when this day really comes, it is inevitable that there will be some reluctance.

Now, after two years of edification, Tang Ge has a deep affection for this land.

"Shi Wazi, come and sit here." In a trance, a call interrupted Tang Ge's thoughts.

Tang Ge looked up and found that it was the tribe's night watchman, Lao Liu, who was sitting leisurely at the door of his house, slowly pecking at the fruit wine. And next to the sixth child, it turned out to be Adam, lying at his feet like a big cat.

"Hello Sixth Master!" Tang Ge greeted him warmly, sat down next to the sixth child, and kicked Adam with some taste by the way.

Seeing this, the sixth smiled and asked, "Why don't you sleep?" ”

To tell the truth, Tang Ge is not familiar with Lao Liu at all, he only knows that he is the first veteran to follow Heijiao to the wasteland to fight the world, and he is not only responsible for the security deployment of Banpo Dolphin at night, but also the treasurer of Banpo Dolphin, and almost all the materials in the tribe are piled up in the big cave behind his house. Other than that, there is no more understanding, and besides, there is very little interaction.

"I can't sleep when I think I'm moving out tomorrow." Although he was not familiar with it, Tang Ge still replied honestly. He always had respect for the elderly.

"What? Reluctant? The sixth man held the wine bowl and asked with a smile.

Tang Ge replied: "It's really a little reluctant. ”

After drinking all the wine in the cup, the sixth asked heroically, "I heard that the city you built is better than this one?" ”

Tang Ge nodded and asked, "Why hasn't the sixth master been to see it?" ”

The sixth shook his head and said, "Busy, I haven't taken care of it yet." It's not right away. ”

Tang Ge asked curiously: "Everyone will move away tomorrow, Sixth Master, are you willing to take this place?" ”

The sixth laughed and said: "There is nothing to be reluctant to, back then, I was with Heijiao and your grandfather, two shoulders against one head, and they came to the wasteland to fight the world, and there was no way to set the tribe here, but now that there is a better place, this broken mud hill can't be stopped." ”

Tang Ge nodded, picked up the wine jar, filled the wine bowl of the sixth child, poured himself a bowl too, and then stopped talking.

The location of the Banpo dolphin is very bad. First of all, the soil of the Banpo dolphin is yellow clay, this kind of soil pottery is good, but casually a little rain, the soles of the feet are like smeared with oil, slippery to death, sunny weather, this soil hill and hard Bangde, planting some flowers and plants are not easy to live, and it is not easy to get water, the whole tribe also has a few springs on the top of the soil hill and the gentle slope in the west, want to draw water, the nearest can only go to the spring in the west. Other tribes go out to hunt grounds, but Banpo Dolphin's hunting ground is more than half a day's road away from the tribe, and it is not enough time to go back and forth for a day, and it can be said that it is the worst tribe in the entire wasteland.

When Tang Ge first came to this world, he was disgusted with the poor conditions of the Banpo dolphin, and now, in his mind, the ideal city as beautiful as a garden has finally been built, but he feels very reluctant to this piece of broken earth.

"It's weird." After drying the wine in the bowl, Tang Ge thought a little sadly.

Tang Ge took advantage of pouring wine and glanced at Lao Liu.

The sixth child's hair was all shaved, his bare head was full of wrinkles, and his teeth had fallen out a lot, but his eyes were bright. He was wearing a short coat, and the muscles on his bare arms were still strong, but there were many white spots, and the young people in the tribe said that this was the sixth child's vigil, and he touched something unclean and was dirty, but Tang Ge knew that it was just a common skin disease. How old this old man is, Tang Ge didn't know, and he didn't ask. But according to the age of the big stone, people who are the same age as his grandfather are at most in their forties, and they are the age of strength in their last life, but at this age, their faces are full of wrinkles and they look droopy and old.

Lao Liu looked at the night sky fixedly, at this time the sky was clear, and a bright star ribbon hung high in the sky, like a river of different widths and narrows, exuding a milliglow, flowing in the sky.

Tang Ge also raised his head and looked carefully at the Milky Way in the sky, the last time he looked up at the starry sky, he didn't remember anymore, it seemed to be in the childhood of the previous life? Maybe earlier. But he can be absolutely sure that the starry sky he sees in this life is exactly the same as in his previous life.

"Shi Wazi, aren't you a god-given god? Do you know what is in the sky? The sixth asked Tang Ge curiously. It can be seen that he has been thinking about this question for more than a day or two, and he has also stared at this starry sky for many years.

In his previous life, Tang Ge could no longer see such a magnificent starry sky in his living environment, but in this life, he has been ignoring the beautiful scenery around him, looking at the devastated stars in the sky, which are the light that began to emit hundreds of millions of years ago, these rays of light have been running in the dead universe for hundreds of millions of years at the fastest speed Tang Ge has ever known, before they can reach the Milky Way and shine on the earth.

The destruction of the starry sky requires hundreds of millions of years of walking to allow human beings to see their light, and the history of human beings is only a few hundred thousand years, and even now, in addition to the legends passed down by word of mouth, there is no concept of history, compared with this starry sky, human beings are so slim. In the previous life, human beings only had a few thousand years of civilization development, and they dared to deny everything, and even talked so conclusively about the origin and destruction of the universe.

"Maybe some of the stars are gone now, right? The reason why we can still see it is because the splendor that erupted before they disappeared has not yet reached our eyes. Tang Ge muttered, and a sense of desolation was inexplicably born in his heart.

After a pause, Tang Ge continued: "And we can only see the present, we can't see the future, we can't see the past, if these stars don't send their brilliance to our eyes, we won't even know about their existence." ”

"What do you mean?" Tang Ge's philosophical emotion made Lao Liu puzzled, so he could only continue to ask the question he was most concerned about: "Having said so much, what is in the sky?" ”

Tang Ge smiled bitterly and said, "Heaven! There is nothing but an endless void. These stars are not what you see, some of them are big, some are small, they are too big for you to imagine, and some of them are too big for you to imagine. You see, they're all together, but in fact, they're very, very far away, even so far that you can never get there, no matter how fast you are. ”

Lao Liu scratched his bare scalp and asked with some confusion, "Then where are our ancestors?" Where is heaven? ”

Tang Ge continued to smile bitterly and said, "I don't know where the ancestor is, but I know that as long as we have the ancestor in our hearts, it's fine." I don't know where heaven is, but I do know that heaven will exist. ”

The sixth seemed to have a satisfactory answer, nodded, drank another bowl of wine, and then continued to stare at the night sky in a daze.

Tang Ge felt a little distracted, so he got up and walked back, without even saying hello. Adam felt Tang Ge's loneliness, so he stood up and followed Tang Ge's side, rubbing his huge body on Tang Ge's body from time to time, comforting his master in his unique way.
