"Tianyan Mountain, Tianyan City, presumably the big stone pillar is the legendary Tianyan?" Xu Linyao pointed to the huge stone pillar in the city that supported a palace, and said.

"It should be, it is said that this stone pillar is an alien object, and the origin of the barbarian race is also because of this stone pillar. Li Xunlian nodded and said.

"I don't know about this, why don't you explain it to me?" Xu Lin said with interest, it wasn't that he was curious, but whoever came over, I was afraid that he would have to be aroused.

Just because the stone pillar is really magnificent, not to mention the legends recorded in the books, just looking at the appearance is enough to make people reverie.

The diameter of the stone pillar is more than ten miles, the height is more than 500 zhang, the whole body presents a crimson color, it seems that there is a strange aura hidden in it, and in the lower head, in the middle, close to the upper head of several positions, there are five horizontal poking out like claw-like decoration. But if you look closely, you will find that it is not some kind of decoration, but it is integrated with the stone pillars, which is natural.

The five claws were also quite large, the size of a street, and there seemed to be a building on it, but the building was made.

It is said that there are no barbarians in Kyushu, but one day in ancient times, this stone pillar fell from the sky, smashed out a deep pit here, and the sand and gravel and mud splashed up poured around, which formed the so-called Tianyan Mountain. Li Xunlian said.

"What are you doing, it's too general. Xu Lin was very dissatisfied, he knew that Li Xunlian had studied the ancient records of Kyushu.

Li Xunlian smiled awkwardly, he really didn't want to waste his words with Xu Lin, but now he couldn't say it, so he continued: "What are you in a hurry, I'll tell you slowly." What I just said is the origin of this Tianyan Mountain, and then I will give you the origin of the barbarians. ”

Xu Lin was satisfied, nodded, and stared at Li Xunlian with interest waiting for the following.

"I also said before, there are no barbarians in Kyushu, but after this stone pillar fell from the sky, tens of thousands of strange races appeared on the Kyushu continent overnight, they resemble humans, but they have quite animal characteristics, they are extremely strong, and brutal by nature, the only flaw is that they can't cultivate Xuan Qi independently, but it is precisely because of this that Kyushu will still be in the hands of our human race. ”

"It is said that the sudden appearance of the barbarians at that time really set off a bloody turmoil in Kyushu, and later it was the power of the three generations of Ling Tian's emperor who gathered the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism and the Holy Lord of the Mixed Yuan, which suppressed the barbarians in the current barbarian land. ”

"Ling Tian's Third Emperor, Mixing the Holy Lord, that's a figure from thousands of years ago. Xu Lin said in surprise.

"That's right, didn't I tell you that there were no barbarians in Kyushu. Li Xunlian looked disdainful.

"I didn't expect there to be such a history, it's really interesting, but where did these barbarians come from, this stone pillar is integrated, if it has fallen here after the stars, there should definitely be no life on it. Xu Lin wondered.

"Then who knows, I'm not a stone pillar. Li Xunlian said disdainfully.

"I see how you kid talks like a dog right now. Xu Lin tilted his head and looked at Li Xunlian.

"Haha, wrong. ”

The two laughed for a while, and it was already dark, and then they went into the city.

Entering the city, they were surprised again, without him, just because the prosperity of the place has exceeded imagination, in their eyes, the barbarians are not educated, but the forests in the night market here are all eye-opening for the two, such as various handicrafts, finely crafted, compared to the things of Qingxiao Country.

If you don't know what's going on, even if you say that this is the Qingxiao Country, I'm afraid some people will believe it.

Of course, the barbarians on the streets are easy to distinguish, after all, there is a big difference between barbarians and Zhongzhou people in terms of appearance.

Tianyan City was inspected very strictly, so Li Xunlian and Xu Lin deliberately disguised themselves when they entered the city, and Li Xunlian also had bad intentions at that time, saying that he wanted to disguise Xu Lin as a wolf, but in the end, he was like a dog, which was quite ugly.

However, it is ugly and ugly, but the effect is still good, since the two of them entered the city, they have walked all the way, but it has not aroused any suspicion.

"Is this place so prosperous, is it built by the wisdom of the barbarians themselves?" Xu Lin asked, looking left and right.

"I'm also curious about this, although I haven't been to a few barbarian cities, but I haven't heard much from others, it seems that except for this Tianyan City, the barbarian cities seem to be the virtue of ancient wolves, and they have nothing to do with the size of the city-state. Li Xunlian wondered.

"I think that under the hands of the barbarian master, there should be a lot of Zhongzhou talents, otherwise, if the barbarian lord really has this kind of wisdom, a few years ago, it would not have developed much earlier than Qingxiao Country. You must know that the territory of the barbarian lord is not smaller than that of Qingxiao Country, and all kinds of resources are also quite abundant. Xu Lin said.

Li Xunlian also felt that what Xu Lin said was very reasonable, not that he looked down on the wisdom of the barbarian, but the fact was there, the barbarian was not low in war, but he was really not good at this kind of exquisite handicrafts, it was like letting a general who could fight well embroider flowers, and it was difficult for a strong man.

Moreover, since ancient times, there have been many examples of depressed people who went to foreign countries and finally made contributions. If there is really a group of Zhongzhou craftsmen under the hands of the barbarian, it is not a strange thing.

After all, this barbarian lord is quite mysterious, and it can be seen from the fact that he was not always an enemy of Qingxiao Kingdom like all barbarian lords in the past during his reign, and this man still has some strategy in his heart, so it is normal to be able to recruit talents.

"Let's inquire, maybe there is an area like the ancient wolf, which is dedicated to the life of people in Zhongzhou. Li Xunlian said.

"It's fine. Xu Lin nodded in agreement, he also felt that even a small place like the ancient wolf could be compatible with Zhongzhou people, and Tianyan City was so developed, there was no reason to turn away foreign technology and civilization. Resting on one's laurels is the most stupid thing a king can do, and this man is clearly not a fool.

After some inquiry, the two of them really inquired that Tianyan City covers an area of thousands of miles, and within a radius of fifty miles in the northern corner of the city, it is a place where people from all over Kyushu gather.

The locals call it a "Gentile City within a City".

After inquiring about the distance, the two of them went straight there, but this was definitely not an idle walk, if they were lucky, they would undoubtedly get quite a lot of information there, and it was even possible to find some useful human resources.

However, at this time, it was already dark, and Tianyan City at night strictly forbade travel, and after the end of the day, the streets were closed and locked, and no one was allowed to haunt at will.

In desperation, Li Xunlian and Xu Lin had no choice but to find a post station to settle down, saying that this post station still has a different taste to live in, there are only three or two houses on the base of the high stone pillar, which is not the same as Li Xunlian's residence on the top of Shenjian Peak, in short, it is very fun.

The next morning, the two got up early and didn't eat the food prepared by the inn, after all, the eating habits of the barbarians are quite different from Zhongzhou, they like to eat raw meat, Li Xunlian and Xu Lin can't stand this.

It has to be said that this kind of architecture of the barbarians can make transportation convenient to a large extent, so the two of them did not turn around in the process of hurrying, and in less than a little time, they found the so-called foreign city within the city of the locals, and came to the gathering place of the human race in Tianyan City.

At the first glance of this place, they had a sense of intimacy, just because it was the same as what they were looking for, it was a small city located in Tianyan City, and this city was exactly the same as Zhongzhou in terms of appearance and interior, as if a certain city in Zhongzhou had been moved intact.

The city in the city of the foreign state is not very large, only one-fifth of the size of Blackwater City, but there are many people from all over Kyushu living here, Li Xunlian has a rough perception, among which Xuan Xiu is not a few, and the strongest breath is the realm of Shenhai, but it is only the early stage of Shenhai, which is a little worse than Xu Lin.

Because they didn't eat in the morning, the two of them were a little hungry now, and as far as the eye could see, all kinds of snack stalls on the roadside were in some Zhongzhou style, so the two of them had a big appetite and found a shop for xiaolongbao and feasted happily.

Eating a roadside stall has two advantages for them, the first is convenience, and the second is that it is easier to find out the news.

Of course, the news they wanted to find out was about Wei Shaoning, although Li Xunlian knew that it was almost impossible to get useful information from this kind of low-level peddler, but he just asked casually, and it was good to get some other news.

However, who knew that people's answers almost made Li Xunlian's jaw drop.

Wei ...... You just came, you can't call this name nonsense, that's the crime of deception!"

What's that?

Li Xunlian and Xu Lin almost spewed out a mouthful of old blood, and a few meanings of chanting Wei Shaoning's name became a major crime of bullying the monarch, although they were certainly not afraid of this so-called crime of bullying the monarch, but they couldn't understand that Wei Shaoning was obviously a hostage sent by Wei Jiyuan, why did he become an emperor?

"Uncle, we are indeed new to this place, what you just said, can you be more detailed?" Li Xunlian escaped from his arms and stuffed a piece of gold ingots directly into the hands of the old trader.

The old trader looks to be in his seventies, although he seems to be quite tough, but his life is shorter, it is a lifetime, and he is still selling xiaolongbao on the street, naturally he has never seen such a big fortune, let alone such a generous young man.

Looking at the yellow, orange, orange, and glittering gold ingots in the sun, the wrinkles on the old vendor's face seemed to stretch. But just when he wanted to speak, he suddenly fell silent, and then looked at Li Xunlian and Xu Lin cautiously, and said, "I don't know who the two young masters are, what are you doing about this?"

Li Xunlian was surprised by the old trader's question, so he replied quietly: "I can't hide it, Wei Shaoning and I were originally sworn brothers, and then he left a letter and left, talking about seeking opportunities in the barbarian land, which has not been seen for several years, so I thought about looking for it." ”

Hearing this, the old trader was suspicious, believing that Li Xunlian was generous and in line with his identity, and it was indeed possible to know Wei Shaoning. What he doesn't believe is that if he is really a brother, how can he not even know this.

Seeing that the old trader was still hesitating, Li Xunlian simply grabbed the gold ingots back, and said, "Since the old man doesn't know, then let's ask the others again, I don't believe it, with such a heavy price, I can't even inquire about this matter." ”

After speaking, Li Xunlian pretended to leave, and Xu Lin followed closely, without paying the slightest attention.

The old trader's eyes were red when he saw it, and he was right, this foreign city within a city was so big, and this matter was not a secret, if they sincerely wanted to inquire, they would be able to get the news they wanted to know sooner or later, but the gold ingot, they really couldn't get it.

That's enough for him to have plenty of food and clothing for the rest of his life, and even if his descendants are frugal, it's enough to spend a lifetime of huge wealth.

"Two, two masters, etc., the old man didn't say he wouldn't tell you, I can't let me think about what to say. The old trader hurriedly stepped forward to stop Li Xunlian and Xu Lin, and then took the gold ingots back without saying anything, with a sneer on his face.

Li Xunlian and Xu Lin glanced at each other, and said in their hearts that money is indeed good, although it is not now, but sometimes, it must be more effective than the threat of force.

At the same time, Li Xunlian was also glad in his heart, thanks to the end of the ancient wolf's treasury, or he really didn't have such a big hand. Thinking that the inhabitants of this foreign city in the city choose to live under the nose of the barbarian all the year round, it should be a fortune, and it seems that there will be many places to use money in the future.

As for how they seek wealth here, Li Xunlian doesn't know, but judging from the price of a drawer of xiaolongbao and a piece of broken silver, the price here is indeed much higher than that of Zhongzhou.

"Uncle, don't worry, say it well, say it slowly, the more detailed the better, as for this gold ingot, this son has it. Li Xunlian patted the old trader on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Cheng, Cheng!" The old trader was overjoyed, and then he pulled Li Xunlian and Xu Lin to sit down, and then he was about to speak.

"Bring me a basket. ”

"It's not sold, it's sold out today. The old trader glanced impatiently at the man who was about to buy the basket just now, what are you kidding, the buying and selling of a gold ingot is waiting here, and he is still going to sell a bun or two pieces of silver, isn't that sick?

Seeing this, Li Xunlian and Xu Lin looked at each other and smiled, and didn't say anything.

"Two young masters, I'm afraid this place is not the place to talk, why don't we change places?" the old vendor's cloudy eyes flashed with greed.

The greedy man Li Xunlian has seen a lot, and he almost can't notice it suddenly, but he doesn't worry about the old trader getting rich, and he doesn't think that the old trader dares to do this, he just thinks that this old fox is afraid that he wants to change the way to knock them out.
