Chapter 251: The Turbulent City of West Asia (Part I)
It is a magnificent and majestic city with pale yellow walls, and from a distance, this city is no different from ordinary cities, but when you walk into this city, you will find that this city is very different from other cities. Because there are some great trees in the city, yes, even in the city, these giant trees are taller than the houses in the city, and the houses in the city are under the cover of the big trees, looming. Of course, the streets of the city are still exposed to the sky, but when you look down at the city from above, the first thing that catches you is the dense foliage.
If you look down from the sky, you will see that the branches and foliage of the trees in the city cover a large area, but if you look closely, you will see that there are not many trees in the whole city, there are 25 trees in total, and each tree is very large, and the trunk of the tree is written with a large number. From south to north, from west to east, it is numbered 1-25.
This special city, called West Asia City, is the destination of Yang Yi and the others, and it is also one of the many cities in the middle of the Black Wind Domain. The 25 big trees in the city are a kind of second-class spiritual treasure, called the Optimus Tree, although this kind of tree is a spiritual treasure, but it has no effect, the only characteristic is that it has a long life and a large size! According to the words handed down from ancient times, this kind of Optimus Tree can live forever as long as it is not destroyed, and its own length and volume will continue to grow. However, no one knows exactly what the situation is, because no one knows how big the Optimus Tree will grow.
The 25 Optimus Trees in West Asia City have been recorded to have lived for more than 400 years, that is, when this West Asian City was not yet there, these 25 Optimus Trees were already there, and later, West Asia City was built around these 25 Optimus Trees, because this kind of tree felt very friendly to the people in the city, and over time, everyone formed an unspoken rule not to destroy the 25 Optimus Trees. And then later. As the tree grew larger, the trunk was numbered to divide the area within the city!
It is now October 5, 1016 in the Red Earth Calendar, and it has been nearly a month since Yang Yi and the others defeated the Red Leaf Gang in the Evil Wind Forest. It has been less than a month since the ruins in the Ximing Swamp opened. In normal times, this city "protected" by the Optimus Tree should give people a quiet feeling, but now, it is extremely lively, and countless people have stayed in this West Asian city closest to Ximing Swamp because of the ruins in Ximing Swamp.
In the city of West Asia, the 25 Optimus Trees represent 25 regions. Although there is no obvious boundary between these areas, but because of the existence of the number on the tree, the division of West Asia City is particularly obvious, and each area of West Asia City has obvious characteristics, such as the No. 1 area is where the city lord lives, No. 2 to No. 10 is the commercial street, etc.! As long as you get a map of West Asia City, people can easily find the place they need to go, which is also the advantage of this city!
At this time. Within the city of West Asia, area 18. It is a place where food is gathered, and there are many restaurants and inns, so this area is also a very lively place. Because of the influence of the ruins of the Ximing swamp, the current West Asia City is lively everywhere.
There is a restaurant called Hongchen in the No. 18 area, which is also the most famous restaurant in this area!
The restaurant is a small two-story building with a small area. The entire building is made of dark green bamboo, with turquoise foliage on the roof, plus the small building is close to Optimus 18. The huge shade of the trees completely covers the small building, giving the small green building a sense of seclusion. This special dining environment and the delicious dishes make the business of this tavern extremely hot, but due to the limited area of the small building, if you want to come to dine here at a particularly busy time in this West Asian city, you have to make a reservation!
On the second floor of the restaurant, in front of a table on the edge, a young man dressed in white sat and drank, this person had long black and bright hair, and his facial features were upright, and the water chestnuts were distinct, especially the eyes that were as deep as a cold pool, giving people an unfathomable feeling. Opposite him, sat a thin old man with a gray beard, his face glowing red, but in front of him was only a cup of hot tea, and he didn't seem to be interested in the restaurant's most famous wine. And the young man opposite him was just quietly drinking, his eyes shining through the railing beside him to the street below, with a faint smile on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.
On their table, apart from the cup of hot tea in front of the old man, there was only a pot of wine in a white bottle, which was constantly taken in the hands of the young man and poured into the cup, and even though the young man was pouring the wine, his eyes did not leave the street downstairs!
Not far from this table, that is, on another table in the other corner of the restaurant, there were also two people sitting there, one of them was a young man who looked a little thin, he sat on the stool like that, looking at the opposite side, with his hands on his knees, and he didn't make any movement, and it seemed that he was sitting a little unnatural. Opposite him, there was a man who looked to be in his early thirties, this man was dressed in a black cloth coat, and next to his chair, there was a silver-white broadsword, which was a huge broadsword, a few points larger than the average broadsword, the tip of this broadsword was against the ground, the hilt of the sword was against the wall, the height had reached the shoulders of the young man who was sitting, especially on this broadsword, there was a faint cold glow, and at a glance it was not a mortal thing!
Their table was different from the one over there, which was full of food in addition to wine. Many of the plates left the entire table with only a small gap at the edges, and most of these plates were meat with golden grease. The thin young man was also indifferent to the dishes on the whole table, just quietly looked at the man opposite, although there was a pair of dishes and chopsticks in front of him, he still did not have the slightest intention of eating! And the man in the black cloth clothes opposite him was constantly devouring the food on the table, his right hand grabbed a chicken leg and gnawed it, and his left hand directly held the wine jug to drink, and after drinking, he picked up the chopsticks and sandwiched the meat slices on the table, as if a beggar who had not eaten for three days met a table of delicacies! The man's eating appearance obviously did not match his handsome appearance, and he himself didn't seem to care about his eating appearance at all, so he ate without regard for his image.
"Hey, Xiaokang, don't you eat?"
He took a bite of the remaining meat of the chicken thigh, then casually put the bone on the table, picked up a large piece of meat and nibbled on it, and asked the thin young man opposite as he gnawed.
The thin young man seemed to be startled, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Ah master, you eat, I'm not hungry!"
The man frowned, stuffed the large piece of meat into his mouth, then grabbed the chicken wings from the plate, handed them directly to the thin young man, and said, "You are coming out with me for the first time, don't be so restrained, just eat it." They all ate at the same table with me when they came out with me!"
His words were a little vague because of the large piece of meat stuffed in his mouth, but they were indeed very loud, and they immediately attracted the attention of many people who were also dining on the second floor of this Hongchen Restaurant, but when everyone saw him, a trace of fear flashed on their faces, obviously this man is also a famous person, and the people who dine in this Hongchen Restaurant are all relatively famous people, and the person who knows most of the people present must be a big man, at least in West Asia City.
The thin young man looked even more unnatural under the young man's loud request, but he still took the chicken wings from the young man's hand, put them in his mouth, and ate them a little awkwardly, he didn't dare to refuse his young master's request.
The young man saw him start eating the chicken wings, laughed loudly, and then began to nibble on the pieces of meat in his hands again.
At this time, the young man who was drinking on the other side also withdrew his gaze from the street, and then fell on the young man who was gnawing on the piece of meat, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"One of the three giants of the Black Wind Domain, the leader of the Heavenly Sword Gang, Yan Tianling, is this guy! Sure enough, it is the same as rumored, he has an amazing appearance!"
After speaking, his gaze looked at the old man opposite.
The old man nodded and replied simply, "This person is very strong!" (to be continued......)
