Chapter 303: Penglai
We were at the dinner table, bored, so let Su Lingxue tell us about the situation in the city.
"Yes, Sister Su, let's eat without delaying the chat, just tell us about the things in the city."
"Yo, you little devil has a pretty sweet mouth, okay, I'll tell you about the things in the city, if you want to know anything about the city, just ask." It seems that it is still good to have a sweeter mouth, and I will learn more from my uncle in the future.
"Sister Su, I see that the distribution of streets in this city seems to be very regular, and it seems that they are all planned, can you tell us about the layout of this city."
"You're really going to ask. This Qincheng was actually planned at the beginning of the construction, and speaking of which, my master was really far-sighted. ”
"We only wanted to build a small city, but my master still wanted to build a city with a population of a million. We were all against it at the time, after all, there weren't so many human physics at that time, and only my master insisted on doing it. ”
"At that time, we had very few people, and there were less than 10,000 families in the army. It is almost impossible to build such a huge city, unlike now, where Qincheng has a population of more than half a million. However, the master still insisted on gradual and gradual construction, and the construction of this Qincheng was completed little by little, and it took almost a few hundred years for Qincheng to begin to take shape. ”
"After another thousand years, we, the descendants, have continuously improved the city's functions and fortifications, and Qincheng has become the largest city in the world. You see, in this city, all the houses are laid out squarely, and the residential areas, commercial areas, and military areas are separated, which further strengthens the city's defenses. ”
"There are most residential areas in the city, and the barracks are around Penglai, which is convenient for mobilizing troops and protecting Penglai. The commercial area is in the south of Penglai and is divided into two business districts, East City and West Market. In the residential area, there are towers at intervals, and fifty soldiers are stationed at all towers. It can not only observe the situation in the city, but also effectively defend against enemy troops entering the city. ”
Penglai, Su Lingxue mentioned Penglai twice just now, could it be the mythical Penglai Immortal Island.
"Sister Su, what kind of place is Penglai you just said?"
"Kid, you're listening very carefully. That Penglai is the place I will take you to in a moment, and it is also the core area of this Qin City. At the beginning, we spent a lot of effort in order to build Penglai. ”
It seems that the place that will take us to that is where Xu Fu is.
After talking about how the Qin City was built for a while, my uncle began to drink with General Zhou again. I'm going to see Xu Fu in the afternoon, we're drunk, okay? An hour later, the table was already in disarray, and we couldn't hold it anymore.
"Everyone, I'll go back to see the master first, and then I'll pick you up and go to Penglai in the afternoon." Su Lingxue left, leaving us here to rest. This sister keeps laughing, in my opinion, she is definitely not a simple person.
"Xiao Yu, it seems that this storm is coming soon, it seems that this Qin City will not be calm." My uncle said drunkly.
"Storm, it's sunny outside, there's no storm."
"You can't teach you, I just want to say that the war is about to start, and the situation in the city is getting more and more complicated. Storm, I see you like a storm. After entering the city, everyone should be careful, the enemy may not appear from anywhere. ”
I just wanted to make him laugh, but he said a few words to me. It's right to be careful, but I don't have to worry about it because there are so many troops in this city. My uncle is under too much pressure, and he needs a chance to relax.
"Xiaoyu, grow more eyes in the future, you can't be so wary of everyone, remember." My uncle has really drunk too much, and his mouth is chattering, so I'd better deal with him first.
"Don't worry, uncle, remember, you can rest assured." After my assurance, my uncle fell asleep in a chair, and the world finally became quiet.
"Everyone, the master is ready to meet you, please come with me." In the afternoon, Su Lingxue came to pick us up.
We walked again to the avenue we had taken before, and after walking for a while, a huge building with a height of 100 meters appeared in front of us. It's still so far away that we can only see a point, but we can't see the substructure.
"Sister Su, what is that tall building?" Su Lingxue still smiled back and explained to me.
"Kid, that's the tallest building in the city, the Thousand Machine Building."
"Sister, how tall is that?"
"How tall, about a hundred feet."
I'll go, the thousand machine building is 100 zhang, how high is 100 zhang.
"Uncle, how tall is a hundred zhang."
"I don't know, no wonder you're so bad at studying. The Qin and Han dynasties were about 23.1 centimeters to 22.1 centimeters. This Thousand Machine Pavilion, I think it's almost 200 meters or more. ”
More than 200 meters, that is, it is also a skyscraper in our world, can people here build such a tall building? I now admire them more and more, and the wisdom of the ancients is not something we can underestimate.
Soon, instead of the base of the tall building, we were greeted by a tall wall. The walls of the city also stretch endlessly, completely enclosing the tall building.
"Sister Su, there is even an inner city here."
"Little friend, this is not an inner city, this is the military camp I mentioned before, and most of the soldiers in the city are stationed here. It's so close to everything in the city, and it can be used as the first barrier in Penglai, which is really good. ”
Su Lingxue called the sergeant guarding the city and opened the city gate for us. After the gate was opened, as Su Lingxue said, there were no ordinary people inside, all of them were soldiers.
After entering the city, there are barracks, horse farms, granaries, and arsenals on both sides. There are also several large playgrounds next to it, where quite a few soldiers are training. The soldiers here also respect Su Lingxue very much, but they are a little wary of us. Is it because we are dressed so strangely, I feel that this barracks is full of murderous atmosphere.
Soon, we came to the end of the barracks, where there was a two-meter-high wooden fence, and it seemed that it should be Napenglai in the future. A few soldiers pulled the fence gate open, and I suddenly felt a wet breath hit my face. This, this is ......
Amazing, it was amazing, a huge lake appeared in front of us. The area of this lake is really large, and many boats sail on this lake. And in the middle of the lake was a huge island, and the huge building we had just seen was in the very center of the island.
"Everyone, this is Penglai, as long as we can cross this lake, we can reach Penglai Immortal Island."
Penglai Xiandao, look at the small island in the lake is shrouded in clouds and mist, and you can also see several high mountains and gurgling streams on the island. There is also a group of big white birds soaring in the sky, the sky is blue and the water is blue, and it can really be called a fairy island.
"Sister Su, how about we get over, or you can call the big ship over there first."
"Children, you will know how to get to Penglai when you walk over."
