Chapter Twenty-Nine: Every Tile in Every City Has a Story

Yeming stood on the street of Linjiang City, using the sundial pendant to control the perception, this kind of primary operation that was expressed by the dragon ballad, there is no difficulty for Yeming who uses the [Beast Character Formula] all the year round, he only needs to attach his breath to the pendant, and he can amplify or weaken the perception of the outside world as he likes.

Although because of the mouth, he said, 'Your breath is very messy. He was thrown out of the carriage, but he was sure that the eldest lady of the Long family had her own plan, she only needed to beat people and get money, and she didn't have to think about this kind of troublesome thing, he didn't know about marriage or anything, so he still found the master and said so.

Ye Ming took out his arms, groped, and finally pulled out a small piece of silver ingot from the jerky, the size of a fingernail, this is when he went upstairs, he secretly counted the money, but was almost discovered by Huang Yueying, who was wandering in the corridor, and fell out when he was hiding the money bag in a panic, Ye Ming put the silver ingot in his belt, touched his slightly bulging abdomen, and gave up thinking about how he could be found by Long Yu about the money bag.

With money, his heart is much more steady, and Yeming, who no longer has troubles, starts shopping with jerky in his mouth, and puts his hand on the building from time to time, feeling the world of color, he crosses the bridge and crosses the street, shuttles through the bustling crowd, he learns to pick up the goods, bargain, and don't buy a piece; He stood in front of the vendor selling snacks and exchanged his jerky for the child; He entered the restaurant, listened to Xiao Er read the signature dishes in the store, nodded frequently, and asked how to walk on Suzaku Street; He followed the people passing by, stepped into the shop that sold his heart's clothes, and was kicked out······

The time of happiness and fulfillment always passes quickly, and before you know it, half a day has passed, Yeming is very satisfied, the jerky in his arms has been spent, and these refined Longfu delicacies can easily exchange everything he wants to eat and drink from the child's hands.

He also has a general understanding of the way people live now, compared to eight years ago, there are too many things in this city that Yeming has never seen, and in the process of learning this, Yeming is excited every moment.

In such an emotion, Ye Ming couldn't help but expand his senses, he desperately wanted to know the whole picture of the entire Linjiang City, even if it would give him a splitting headache!

"Oh————" Yeming suddenly let out a long exclamation with a sound, he looked to the east, and stood still for a long time.

"Spectacular!" An old voice appeared in Nightlight's ears like a narrator.

"Yes! - Huh?! Yeming turned his head sideways, looked at this weak breath, and gasped, he immediately stopped expanding his senses.

"Young man, it's the first time you've come to Jiangcheng." The old man's voice came from an old man on crutches, he was wearing a coarse coat with many patches, he was bent up, his skin was dark, his hair was gray and sparse, his fingers were full of calluses, he couldn't stop trembling, the old man's eyes were cloudy, and there were tears flashing in the east at this time.

"Ahh - Yeming answered, and looked again at the thing that amazed him—two towering mountains! It is located at both ends of the eastern city wall of Linjiang City.

"Would you like to listen to the old man's nagging and tell you about this mountain and this city?" The old man trembled and pointed to the futon under the tree not far away.

"Well, I like to listen to the old man the most." Yeming smiled, bent over, and sat under the tree with his arms, this is the end of the street, next to a river that runs through the city, the weeping willows on both sides of the bank flutter in the wind, many people are comfortably leaning under the tree to nap or chat, of course, it is also a good place to tell stories.

"Hehe, you're a good boy, alas—not many people want to listen to me old man when I'm older." The old man looked at Yeming with a smile, then looked at the two high mountains, and said slowly with memories: "Linjiang City was not called this name before, we all called it Mountain City. ”

"Mountain City?"

"Don't say you're here for the first time, even those who moved here later don't know the name." The old man sighed. "It's called 'Mountain City' because it was built by the older generation on the mountain, and these are the two mountains you see now, but they weren't that tall back then."

"Will this mountain grow?" Ye Ming looked at the high mountains, and in his mind were two towering black shadows entangled in white gas.

"Haha, it will indeed grow." The old man laughed, his face full of wrinkles and squeezed together, "The old man still remembers when he was young, he went up to the mountain to pick herbs and firewood, and at that time the mountain, I could climb it four or five times a day, and in the evening, on the top of the mountain, the wind was blowing, eating a few wild fruits, and my fellow playmates were looking for their own house from afar, it was really interesting······

The old man closed his eyes lightly, as if thinking about the scene.

Yeming didn't dare to disturb, he quietly waited for the old man's next words.

"That chaos changed eight years ago! The sky is falling apart! The old man was so frightened that he didn't dare to go out in the house! When the dragon finished turning over and the old man went out again, the mountain cracked! It was much higher than before, and in the years that followed, every time there was an earthquake on the earth, the two mountains were one point higher, and finally they had their current appearance. The people spread that there were immortals living on these two mountains, so they were raised, and they were named after them. ”

The old man put down his crutches and pointed to the twin mountains, "You see, this mountain on the left is called Shentu Mountain, and the one on the right is called Yulei Mountain, and people outside the city worship it every year, thinking that these two mountains can protect their safety." ”

"What do you think, old man?"

"In my eyes, they are the mountains that I climbed up and down when I was a child, and I could pick fruits to eat, and I wouldn't worship them, and they don't need people to worship."

The old man's voice sounded a little tired, but he slowed down, and then said, "The mountain is separated, and the land is cracked, and the water of the river flows in, and the old man has seen something bigger than the mountain for the first time. ”

"At that time, His Majesty the Emperor had just established the country, and when he heard about the vision here, he ordered the rebuilding of the mountain city, and now many of the great clans in this city have moved in from that time, and they have built this city. In the past, the city wall of this mountain city was only more than zhang, and there were only three sides, but now, there are two more sides in the northwest and southeast, and a wall has also been built between the two mountains in the east, which is high and scary, and the mountain city has expanded many times, the city has become bigger, and there are more people, there are docks, there are streets, and there are many things that the old man has never seen, and this city has also changed to Linjiang City. ”

······

In the afternoon, the sun gradually sets, the golden light spreads all over the riverside city, an old and a young under the weeping willows by the river, listen to the history of the city, the sparkling water reflects the two people, and the flowing river records the conversation between the two, which exists in the memory of the whole city.

"Strange to say, when this city was called 'Mountain City', the old man could still see the outside of the city, changed his name, and was surrounded by this city wall, but felt that this city had really become a mountain city."

The old man shook his head and slowly stood up, and Yeming immediately reached out to help.

"I know how it feels."

"Hehe... Good boy, it's been a long time since anyone has heard the old man say so much. The old man smiled and patted Yeming's arm and praised: "A total of 10,000 yuan." ”
