Chapter 294: Canglang Ancient Town
Chapter 294 Canglang Ancient Town
In the wilderness outside the Canglang Temple, Zhang Huaming and Han Wei finally felt a little dry after arguing with each other without giving in, so they really gave up, and after resting for a while, they took advantage of the thick night to go in the direction of Canglang Town.
Canglang Town, looking from a distance, there is a piece of eaves and attics, the face is simple, looking at these ancient buildings, as if you see the traces of the years.
The vicissitudes of thousands of years, the baptism of countless wind and rain, as if floating in front of you, is so real. Before you arrive in the ancient town, you can feel a sense of solemnity.
Perhaps, this thing is a real thousand-year-old town that gives people the feeling they deserve. Zhang Huaming looked at the ancient town standing on the earth not far away, and felt a little emotion in his heart.
At this time, the dark clouds in the sky have receded for some time, and the sky is gradually becoming clearer, and the first dawn in the early morning shines on this ancient town that has gone through vicissitudes, adding a bit of dreamlike mystery.
"This is Canglang Ancient Town. Han Wei's eyes revealed a few separations, and she said in a quiet tone.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Huaming looked at her puzzled, and could faintly feel that she seemed to be full of nostalgia and reluctance here.
"This is my hometown. Han Wei lightly dropped a sentence back into the air, and the lotus step moved lightly, swaying with a graceful figure.
Zhang Huaming stared at her back, and felt an indescribable loneliness, that kind of sorrow, as if even the heavens and the earth were sad. He thought to himself that he might understand the reason why Han Wei had come all the way here.
It's just that hometown, these two simple words, are so distant words for him Zhang Huaming.
Sighing softly, Zhang Huaming strolled and followed.
The ancient town is not very big, an ancient road paved with bluestone slabs continues to extend to the other end of the street, both sides of the ancient road are pavilions built of wood, all are double eaves octagonal, the porcelain tiles dug in ancient times on the top of the building have been beaten by wind and rain for thousands of years, except for the appearance of being old and having some moss, but there is little damage.
There are hardly any shops open in the ancient town, and the sky is not yet bright at this time, except for one or two scattered people on the streets, every house is closed, and the big wooden trees of the ancient pouting look very elegant. The walls of each household are very high, it looks like it is six meters high, and the outer wall is painted with red paint, but it has been eroded by countless wind and rain, and it has become extremely old, and the paint peeling off can be seen everywhere, but the visible paint is still so bright, not under the drizzle, it exudes an ancient fragrance, and the ancient smell of the ancient wood of the ancient building gives people a sense of tranquility and depth.
Breathing the deep fragrance of this ancient town and feeling the rare tranquility of the valley, Zhang Huaming's heart suddenly felt a little uneasy.
A familiar aura suddenly rose from the bottom of my heart and rushed to my brain.
I closed my eyes, felt the atmosphere here, and felt as if I had returned to the ancient era, Jin Ge Iron Horse, galloping on the battlefield, a confrontation between millions of male soldiers, waving the bronze giant sword in his hand, the war drums sounded, thousands of troops and horses rushed away, and the sound of ping-pong was endless, the corpses were all over the field, the blood flowed like a river, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and a murderous aura in my heart suddenly soared.
Perhaps it was back to his hometown after many years of absence, Han Wei's thoughts had been a little erratic, and she was unaware of Zhang Huaming's strange appearance, and when she knew that she felt the killing aura that suddenly erupted from his body, she suddenly came back to her senses, and her heart was shocked, and she had a feeling that she couldn't breathe and couldn't breathe.
Turning his head to look at Zhang Huaming, he saw that he slowly opened his eyes at this time, there were faint dissatisfaction with a few bloodshots in his eyes, and the killing aura on his face was still extremely strong, but Hu slowly disappeared, and his bloodshot eyes slowly recovered, restoring a light and breezy appearance.
"Lord Wang, are you okay?" Han Wei was surprised in her heart and asked unconsciously with concern. The huge murderous aura that Zhang Huaming burst out just now made her feel terrified, and she still has lingering palpitations and fears.
It was at this time that she suddenly remembered that the man in front of her, who had been arguing with her for a long time, was the King of the Xia Dynasty Empire, and he was also the famous 'Undefeated God of War' from all countries in the Warrior Continent, and he didn't know how many people's blood was stained in his hands.
"It's fine. Zhang Huaming forcibly suppressed the restlessness in his heart, shook his head, and said with a smile.
Han Wei obviously didn't believe what Zhang Huaming said, she glanced at him suspiciously, her red squirm, and she stopped talking.
"Where are you going, let's go. Zhang Huaming ignored Han Wei's eyes, did not open his mouth to explain, and said lightly.
"Don't worry, I'll take you around first, be your tour guide for free, it's a little bit of the friendship of the landlord. Han Wei quickly recovered from her fright, shook her head slightly, threw out the complex thoughts in her mind, glanced around, and said softly.
"It's fine. Zhang Huaming nodded, and silently followed behind Han Wei and walked alone.
In fact, Han Wei didn't know that Zhang Huaming himself couldn't understand what the reason was for what had just happened, he just felt the atmosphere in this Canglang town, and the anger suddenly came out on its own, and even he was a little unable to suppress it.
He was originally a general who fought on the battlefield, and in just a few years, countless people died at his hands, his hands were stained with blood, and he was free in his bones with a murderous aura, but his cultivation was high enough, although this aspiration existed, it never attacked, and Zhang Huaming never took it to heart.
However, the world is unpredictable, Zhang Huaming never imagined that after stepping into this thousand-year-old town, this long-dormant anger suddenly broke out without warning, which made him feel unprepared.
What still made Zhang Huaming feel incredible was that the appearance of this anger made him faintly excited in his heart. At that moment, he seemed to see that the sky was pitch black, and there was no light in the whole world, as if he had fallen into the Netherworld, and as if he had fallen into the unfathomable darkness of time, and it was not until Han Wei's voice woke him up that he came back from the endless darkness.
It's incredible, it's incredible.
Zhang Huaming followed behind Han Wei all the way, following in the footsteps, ignoring her words about the surrounding scenery.
After waking up, the deep tranquility of his surroundings returned, and this time, he tried to relax his mind and keep everything in its natural state.
The ancient town, the ancient pavilions, the ancient roads, and the ancient and deep atmosphere that permeates this thousand-year-old town.
Taking a breath gently, Zhang Huaming used his Dao Heart to calm his slightly irritable heart again.
Behind the attic complex is a wooden hole bridge, and in front of it is a small castle-like location. Zhang Huaming glanced at it lightly, the wall of this castle is not very high, that is, it is similar to the walls of the residents on both sides of the ancient road that he passed by just now, but here, the wall has become a city wall.
There are battlements on the city walls, and there are small holes in them, which are thought to be used to defend against the enemy in ancient times.
"What's going on?" Zhang Huaming looked at the castle with a slight surprise. He didn't expect that in this seemingly small town, such a castle would suddenly appear, giving people a feeling of being a country within a country.
"This is the most famous Canglang Fort in Canglang Town, and it is also the origin of the name of this town. Han Wei explained, "There is no town here, only this ancient bunker stronghold, which is the 'eye' of Limei City, the capital of the Limei Empire, and is responsible for monitoring the enemy's situation." Later, after the collapse of the Rio Mei Empire, the fugitive exiles settled here, and with the help of the surviving soldiers, they settled here, and the number of people gradually became what it is now. ”
Han Wei paused and continued: "In the eyes of the people of Canglang Town, this bunker is the most sacred place, and the meaning it represents is not only the birthplace of Canglang Town, but also the belief in their hearts. ”
"I see. Zhang Huaming bowed slightly, he couldn't imagine that this Canglang Town had such an incredible origin, no wonder there was a strong killing aura hidden in this ancient castle.
The castle is very large, Zhang Huaming roughly estimated, covers an area of about 10,000 square meters, a moat five or six meters wide outside the castle goes around the city, and I don't know where it leads, but at this time I can't see the water in the river, I don't know if it has long dried up or this time is not in season.
Although the sky is not completely clear, the city is open, but above the slightly tall city is written in vigorous penmanship: Canglang Fort!
These three words are not seen to be many years, perhaps written when the fort was built here during the era of the Limei Empire, but these three words have been baptized by wind and rain for thousands of years, and they are still clear and powerful at this time, but they are already a little slippery and black at the bend of each stroke, which is estimated to be caused by years of rain and slippery.
The stones on the city wall are similar, and the entire city wall looks very ancient and magnificent.
Between the castle and the moat is a stone bridge, which seems to be not so old, probably because it was used to build a bridge, but it was later cancelled.
After entering the city, I saw that the road in the city was divided into three branches, one leading to the back of the city, and one on the left and one on the right. The roads in the city are paved with bluestone slabs, and the pavilions are similar to those outside the city, except that there are some more multi-storey pavilions in the city than those outside, but they are only three floors.
"Outsiders are not allowed to enter this place, even if we residents of Canglang Town cannot enter without permission, otherwise we will become the public enemy of the residents of the town. Han Wei stood at the head of the Mukong Bridge, looked at the Canglang Castle, and explained.
"Well, if you don't go in, just take a look. Zhang Huaming doesn't force it, anyway, there is a lot of time, he can go in whenever he wants, and no one can stop him. Besides, if he really wants to see it, as long as his divine sense is swept away, the entire Canglang Town can be seen at a glance, and for him, there is no secret at all. It's just that the atmosphere is so quiet now, he doesn't want to spoil the feeling.
"Click!"
The two were standing on the bridge to enjoy the scenery of the ancient town at will, a neat and loud footsteps suddenly came from the ancient castle, Zhang Huaming and the two followed the reputation, only to see a team of dozens of soldiers were fully armed to run in the direction of the two from the ancient castle, the momentum was violent, giving people a feeling that the comer was not good.
Zhang Huaming looked at the team, his feet did not move at all, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
