Chapter 284 Long Jun said Beihai, sighing at the emperor's talent
The innkeeper returned the salute, waved his hand and said: "You're welcome, open the door to do business to welcome guests from all over the world, you can live in this dilapidated place is also my honor, not to mention that I have some friendship with Doutian, since you are his friend, I should take good care of myself." ”
There was only one group of people in the inn, and Shan Linyuan didn't want to be too troublesome, so he told the boss: "You don't have to take care of us, I've been to this place before, and I know how to get there." ”
"In that case, I will not accompany you, and I will take my leave. ”
After the innkeeper left, Nangong Shenglong immediately leaned over and asked, "Big brother, you've been here before, what kind of place is this?"
Obviously, everyone wants to ask this question, sit down and answer, "This is the center of the Western Desert, Qianwu Town is the only town in the Eight Hundred Miles Desert, and the nearest village to Qianwu Town is also about eight days away. ”
In the heart of the Eight Hundred Miles Desert in the Western Regions, this news is really surprising, * Adam's apple moved: "This town is not only remote, but also has a strange name, I took a rough look at the layout here last night, there are places to worship gods in the south, east, west, and north, and presumably there are not ordinary people living here." ”
Knowing that they would ask, he also prepared an answer for them: "Yes, you should know that after Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, he sent a large number of craftsmen to dig up the mountains, that is, the legend of digging up the dragon veins of all parties, and in the process, because he was blocked by the defenders, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the slaughter of the defenders; built a house as a refuge for these people, and then it quickly developed into a small town, and later Liu Bowen's friend took refuge here because he offended Zhu Yuanzhang, and gradually became the director here, opening the ruling mode of this town. ”
"I have heard this legend, because the people who took in are cultivators, so this town is called Thousand Witch Town, which means that there are countless wizards in it, the purpose of this is to scare those lawless people who want to take refuge in the town, and secondly, to show that this town is not inhabited by ordinary people. "Before the invention of airplanes, people who came to Qianwu Town for refuge had to pass through the grassland, so most of the herdsmen on the grassland had heard the legend of Qianwu Town.
What is the truth of Qianwu Town, Shan Linyuan knows best, but he doesn't want to explain: "That's what Jianwu said, this town began to accept some people who were hunted down at the end of the Ming Dynasty, this rule has been used until now, and the current government still classifies this place as a forbidden area for rule, as long as you enter this town, no matter what kind of big crime you commit, you can escape the government's pursuit." ”
This is bad news,* whispered, "So this town is actually a refuge for criminals, so isn't it also a dangerous place." ”
"On the surface, it seems like this, but anyone who wants to enter this town with a guilty body must go through the town's verification, and after the evidence is published, the town's people over the age of fifteen and under the age of seventy will vote together, and more than two-thirds of the votes can enter, and if this person commits a crime that is not tolerated by heaven, he will be directly expelled from the town after verification. ”
Listening to what Shan Linyuan said, Nangong Shenglong's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "So this is a refuge for heroes!"
Is this a refuge for heroes, not necessarily, most of the people who can find this place are defenders and the like, and most of these people are not heroes.
He couldn't tell them about it, and replied, "You can say that, but this shelter is too hard to find, and many heroes can't get the right guidance to come here." ”
In this way,* say something very realistic: "But if the people in the town want to protect themselves, then it is useless even if the people who come are heroes who petition for the people, because they will be refused to leave the town during the referendum." ”
This situation really doesn't exist, because if you can find here, if you are really a chivalrous person, you will definitely be contained, this is the Thousand Witch Town of Shan Linyuan's memory.
After thinking about it, he replied*: "Such a situation is almost unlikely, because the people who come here are all men of strong blood, and the children who grew up here have been educated in heroism from an early age, so they have a very deep understanding of the suffering of the people, and their ability to distinguish between right and wrong is much stronger than that of ordinary people; ”
After listening to what he said, others had to sigh in their hearts, 'This is really a dream place, and in today's society, this is really an alternative existence, a desirable place.' ’
While they were talking, the shopkeeper had already prepared a meal and brought it up, brought a pot of wine and said, "A few of you have come from afar, you might as well try our home-brewed goat's milk wine." ”
Shan Linyuan handed the wine back to the shopkeeper: "I have received my kindness, but we still have a lot of things to do in the afternoon, and it is inconvenient after drinking, so please take it back." ”
Xiao Er took the wine and said, "It's okay, those people eat well, I won't accompany you." ”
After eating and resting for a while, Shan Linyuan took the lead to go to the school ground, which was already crowded with people, these people were wearing different costumes, but there was no doubt that they were all costumes that could represent their own nation;
Seeing them coming, the crowd automatically moved out of the way and sent them to the front.
At first, I thought it was because the people here were hospitable, but after seeing a few senior brothers at the front of the queue, I realized that it was because a few senior brothers had a big face and stained their light, otherwise they should be at the back of the queue when they first arrived.
Not long after sitting down beside several senior brothers, a girl wearing a national costume that she didn't know ran to the front of the team: "Chief Doutian, I heard that Lin Yuan is here?"
This girl, every time he came, he would ask for news about Shan Linyuan, and Dou Tian pointed to the back.
Shan Linyuan got up, clenched his fists and asked, "Do you recognize me?"
The girl is very beautiful, so beautiful that people dare not look at it more, and if you look at it more, you feel that it will defile her holiness.
She happily ran over and looked up and down in front of Shan Linyuan: "Brother Linyuan, you don't remember me, I'm Lan Guqing, we used to play together when we were young, and you gave me a horn knife." As she spoke, she took out a horned dagger from her waist and shook it in front of Shan Linyuan.
Shan Linyuan suddenly realized, this was his playmate when he was a child, the two of them grew up together, and knew that he left Qianwu Town seven years ago, and only came back today: "It's you, your name is Lan Guqing Gu Zaili, right, I have been hypnotized by the sixth senior brother in the past few days, and many things can't tell between reality and dreams, and I can't tell between reality and fiction in memory, so I didn't remember it for a while." ”
The girl was very happy: "Yes, you haven't been back for seven years, I thought you had forgotten about me, my father is over there, can I take you over to see him?"
Raised his head and looked at the sky: "The conference is about to start, I will visit the big chief after the conference, you take me to greet him first." ”
She pursed her lips and walked to the front of Doutian, crossed her hands on her chest and saluted, "Great Chief Doutian, can I attend the conference in your team?"
Dou Tian glanced at her, then turned around to look at Shan Linyuan before answering her: "I can't decide this matter, if your father agrees with Senior Brother Linyuan, then it's no problem." ”
Lan Guqing looked at Shan Linyuan, who was also very embarrassed, and replied to her: "Go back quickly, you are the princess of the clan, and your father will be angry if you are not in the queue." ”
"No, I told my father before I came, and he allowed me not to be in the queue. She replied so firmly that she couldn't help but believe it, so she could only agree: "Okay, you stay, but I want to explain first, if your father blames it, it's none of my business, and I won't intercede for you." ”
Lan Guqing happily ran to him, grabbed his arm and asked, "You haven't been back for several years, are you having fun outside, do you miss me?"
Her reaction seemed to contain something, Shan Linyuan was not entirely sure, and only replied to her: "I missed you at the beginning, but slowly I didn't want to, I almost forgot about you in the past few years." ”
Lan Guqing looked aggrieved, lowered his head and said, "No wonder you didn't come back to see me, a few years ago, Brother Doutian told me that you have a wife, I still don't believe it, you are so young, now it seems to be true." ”
Hearing this, Shan Linyuan's face was instantly full of gloom, and without the little joy he had before, leaving Yuqin was a wound in his heart, a wound that would never heal.
Lan Guqing, who didn't know why, thought that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly kept telling him that he was sorry, and the whale changed and pulled her over and made a movement to wipe her neck, Lan Guqing was very smart and understood what the whale changed, and there was no previous excitement and emotion at the moment.
In the past, Shan Linyuan was beside him, his head was very low, and he whispered: "I didn't mean to, you know that I have never left here, so I am not very good at talking, if you are in a bad mood, blame me, and you can beat me." ”
Shan Linyuan shook his head, it didn't matter before he could say anything, a girl who was about eleven or twelve years old ran over and said, "Lan Guqing, Dad told you to go back immediately, otherwise you will be punished tonight." ”
Shan Linyuan glanced at Lan Guqin, she was like a child who had done something wrong, and she didn't dare to raise her head to look at him: "Go back quickly, don't make your father angry." ”
waved his hand, reluctantly left with the girl, and turned back in three steps.
After Lan Guqing left, Dou Tian looked back at Shan Linyuan: "Do you want me to do a happy event for you or escort you back to the master, I guess I just thought about it." ”
