Chapter Seventy-Six—The Night Lion of the City
Chapter Seventy-Six—The Night Lion of the City
Zuo Chengzhe looked at his chest, and then remembered the source of the Frost Dragon Stone......
Although he said that he saved Xu Yan first, he knew how much pressure Xu Yan was under when he carved into the palace for himself. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info urgent situation, no available tattoo in hand, no other tattoo artist around, all kinds of factors led to this tattoo on his chest that is enough to leave a name in history.
That's a tattoo master who hasn't yet reached the realm of a pattern, carving a coiled dragon pattern in the heart palace!
If the news spreads, the whole world will be shocked.
But he won't do this, Zuo Chengzhe clearly understands that the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.
No matter how talented Xu Yan is, he is only a twelve-year-old child who has little ability to resist and has no background. Such a child can be easily destroyed by others. Geniuses can't grow, they're just wasted. This is also the reason why Bai Yun and Zuo Chengzhe decided to hide the innate double palace obtained by the dotted stone.
Zuo Chengzhe shook his head, as if he wanted to wave away these messy thoughts.
The top priority now is to find the medicinal materials and let Xu Yan heal his injuries first.

The Nauro carriage walked slowly.
They no longer traveled to and from the south city and small villages in the past, but a real long-distance journey.
For such long distances, mounts are quite important. However, at that time, the situation was urgent, and there were no very good mounts in remote cities like Nancheng, so they had to come out with durable horses.
Therefore, they must not be too fast, and if they are to die on the most "hard-working" hard-working horses, they will have to walk on their legs.
Coming to the outside of Night Lion City, Xu Yan looked through the window of the carriage, a little distracted.
Compared to this world, the cities I have seen in my previous life are simply inferior.
The walls were extremely high and had a dull golden sheen.
The time when the luster lit up was orderly, Xu Yan could sensitively see that there were probably patterns on the city wall, but he couldn't see what the lines were.
And in front of the city gate, there is a five-meter-tall lion statue, which is lifelike and intimidating.
As if noticing Xu Yan's gaze, Bai Yun, who was driving the carriage, said at the right time, "Night Lion City is a very wonderful city, different from Zhinan City. 」
"Legend has it that more than 600 years ago, a powerful beast appeared in this place, the Night Lion, who wreaked havoc in this place, killing countless people, feeding on people and animals, and destroying people. At that time, a tattooed person who had just retired from the bloody front learned that he had recommended himself to His Majesty the Blue Emperor at that time to kill the night lion. 」
"That tattooed person was a cultivator in the fourth palace at that time, but the night lion was an existence that even the powerhouses of the fifth palace had to face squarely. And in those days, the powerhouses of the five houses were even rarer than they are now. So anyone thinks that the tattooed person is just sending him to death. Even so, they had to admire his courage. 」
"The current Blue Emperor has made a promise that if the tattooed person succeeds in slaying the Night Lion, he will be crowned a nobleman immediately, and it will be passed down from generation to generation. Give fiefs and rewards, and for all the materials of the Night Lion, the Lan Dynasty will not ask about it. 」
"In the eyes of everyone, it was just an empty promise made by His Majesty the Emperor, after all, no one was optimistic about the tattooer. 」
"Then the tattooer set off, and when a month passed, the news came back to Blue Emperor City. The tattooer succeeded, and used the cultivation of the Four Palaces Realm to kill the powerful Night Lion, and this news shocked the entire south. 」
Xu Yan listened leisurely and was distracted, and crossed the level to kill the tattoo beast, what kind of powerful existence was that?
Bai Yun continued: "Jun has no jokes, the Blue Emperor at that time immediately ordered to give the name of the noble. And the fief that the tattooer asked for was exactly where we were in front of us. He built a city here and named it the Night Lion. And their family is also based on the night lion as the family crest, which has been passed down from generation to generation. 」
"What's even more terrifying is that a few months after killing the Night Lion, that tattooed person broke through the Five Palaces Realm. It became one of the most powerful beings of that generation, guarding the South for hundreds of years. 」
"The tattooer, surnamed Xie, is Wentian. The Night Lion Xie family is a well-known family even in today's era. 」
As they spoke, their carriage came to the Night Lion Gate.
The five-meter-tall statue of the night lion is the sentry of the city guard.
The city guard looked at the old and harmless Bai Yun, and then lifted the curtain of the car and saw the weak Xu Yan and the iron-masked man Zuo Chengzhe, so he let him go.
The old coachman, the father and the son.
Simple combination, unhindered.
The carriage slowly entered the city, and Xu Yan also looked around.
The architectural style was very different from what he had seen in Zhinancheng, which made him a little strange.
The well-informed Bai Yun began to flaunt his wealth of knowledge again: "There is a rumor that Xie Wentian, the powerhouse of the Five Palaces, once went deep into the north alone to challenge the major masters. And it took four or five years to come back. Therefore, the architectural style of Night Lion City is biased towards the north. There are not too many towering buildings, but they are more simple and rugged. 」
Xu Yan nodded, he read the scrolls, and in the scrolls that Xu Tian gave him, there were all kinds of knowledge.
In the south, because the buildings are mainly based on the city, and the place of the city is limited, but the people are infinite.
So as the number of people increases, the buildings in the city often have to develop upwards to accommodate more people.
In the north, there is no style of a city, and huts are built on any land, with freedom as the wind.
It is precisely because there are so many differences between the north and the south that there is conflict.

The horse-drawn carriage of Nauro drove along the roadway in the middle of the city, but the bustling streets were not as noisy as those of the southern city. Although it can be seen that people are living happily, they do not show it like Zhinancheng, they are all implicitly expressed. Even if you look at the attic of the teahouse, people who are familiar with each other will not shout and chat, but like whispering in your ear.
Xu Yan was amazed at this kind of picture.
The carriage stopped in front of an inn, and the Nauro carriage was placed, and with Zuo Chengzhe's support, Xu Yan lay on the bed.
Bai Yun said that he went out to look for medicinal herbs and left.
And Zuo Chengzhe stayed here to accompany Xu Yan.
"Ah! when is the head? Xu Yan was a little irritable, he had an active personality, and seeing that he had been exercising almost continuously every day for the past twelve years, he couldn't even walk for a month, which made him feel very bad.
He felt like a wreck.
Zuo Chengzhe didn't speak, but blamed himself in his heart.
Xu Yan seemed to think of something, and said, "Teacher Zuo......
Zuo Chengzhe was the first to say, "Don't call me teacher, in fact, I know, I haven't taught you anything over the years. His gaze flashed with a rare softness: "If you don't mind, just call me Brother Zuo, you and I are called brothers." 」
Xu Yan secretly said in his heart: "You kid has already taken advantage of me by asking me to shout big brother. 」
As a human being in two lives, Xu Yan is older than Zuo Chengzhe.
