Hongmeng is a city of ninety states, and this city is Tianhong City.

Located in the heart of the main realm of Hongmeng, on the shore of the vast inland sea, a city as a state to gather countless elites of the Hongmeng world, the giant capital city, from tens of thousands of years ago in the era of the Heavenly Demon Court has been standing in the world, witnessing countless vicissitudes of life in the world, witnessing countless prosperous romances, witnessing the ups and downs, witnessing the blood flowing, when the light has passed, the deceased has gone, only this greatest city in history, still stands here, standing quietly.

On this day, it was dusk.

The sunset sinks in the west, reflecting the red sunset for half a day, reflecting on the blue inland sea, reflecting the magnificent and brilliant and alluring brilliance, which is dizzying, faint afterglow, and the distant light shines on the seaside giant city that can not be seen at a glance.

When the golden light lit up again on the array island, the huge golden light with the aura of ancient recklessness gushed up like a volcano, and a group of people appeared in the ancient teleportation circle that had been tempered by many wind, frost, rain and snow.

Shen Shi and Du Tiejian, of course, and the inseparable little black pig stood in the crowd, but around the two of them, the others were a little farther away from them, intentionally or unintentionally, and most of the reasons for this were because of Du Tiejian, such an arrogant bald man carrying the black iron giant sword, at first glance, it gave people a feeling that they were not easy to mess with.

Although most of the people who can ride the ancient teleportation circle are also monks, but when walking outside, it is better to have more than one thing.

This ancient teleportation circle is a special channel to communicate between the Black River Realm and the Hongmeng Main Realm, when the golden light gradually dissipates and the surrounding aura stabilizes, the crowd suddenly disperses. Shen Shi took a few steps out, turned his head to look around, and found that he was now on a large island with a large footprint, in the shape of a crescent moon, in the middle of the inland sea. Along the edge of this island, there is an ancient teleportation circle every dozens of zhang, from a distance, although there are some subtleties or slight differences, but in general, almost every circle is a large array covering an area of about twenty acres, the golden light flashes and flows, that is the luster of the magical golden fetus stone.

Even under the feet of them at this moment, the semicircular central square surrounded by this large circle of magic circles was all shining with golden light, and all of them were stone seats made of golden fetal stones.

The turquoise blue water, the gentle waves of sand on the edge of the island and the slow retreat, sometimes make you wonder if this has been the case for millions of years.

On the square of the array island, as Shen Shi walked out, from time to time they could still see the golden light in the ancient teleportation array around them one after another, as if they were in a fantastic and strange place, maybe it wouldn't be long before when the reckless aura rose again, and a group of monks from another other world came here and went to the famous city not far away.

Yes, Tianhong City is not far away, or to be precise, it is the island of Jin, in the sea outside the city on the west side of the giant city of Tianhong City, a long bridge made of white jade, spanning several miles of sea, like a white dragon connecting the island with the coast.

Du Tiejian took Shen Shi and walked towards the long bridge across the sea, the bridge deck was extremely spacious, there were dozens of zhang, I am afraid that even if there are thousands of people walking here, they will not feel particularly crowded. The relief paintings on the railings on both sides are lifelike, at a glance you know that it is the handwriting of the master craftsman, the wind, frost, rain and snow do not seem to be able to fade the skill, in contrast, only those jade bridge decks that are stepped on under the feet, perhaps because there are too many people walking through, the traces of wear and tear can be seen everywhere, and it looks old and dilapidated.

The afterglow of the setting sun falls on the white jade long bridge, and the tide of the sea gently swells under the bridge, which is as beautiful as a picture scroll and like a person in a painting.

Du Tiejian took Shen Shi to the side of the railing, and looked at the beautiful scenery of the brilliant afterglow of the sunset, and said, "Have you ever been to Tianhong City before?"

Shen Shi shook his head, shocked by this magnificent scene, and said honestly: "No, this is the first time to come. ”

Du Tiejian smiled and pointed into the distance, the sunset at the end of the sea level and the bridge beside him, and said:

"Tianhong City is the first city of Hongmeng, the city is endlessly prosperous, and there are ten famous Tianhong views in the world, this 'Dragon Bridge Sunset' is one of them. ”

Shen Shi nodded, looking at the beautiful scenery of the world, he couldn't help but praise: "Sure enough, it is worthy of the name, it is really an eye-opener." ”

Du Tiejian smiled slightly, patted him on the shoulder, and continued to walk forward with Shen Shi, while saying in his mouth: "When I was young, when I first came here, I was almost in the same mood as you are now. ”

The two walked all the way, the light and shadow on the dragon bridge turned, and gradually a majestic and vast city was gradually revealed at the end of the distant bridge.

Tianhong City, a city that has carried countless glories and recorded endless prosperity, appeared in Shen Shi's eyes for the first time.

The first thing that catches your eye is the towering and majestic city walls.

It was a city wall that Shen Shi had never seen in his life, even if he had seen it from books and classics when he was a teenager, but he still couldn't imagine it.

It is more than 100 zhang high and stretches thousands of miles.

In all the books, when describing the walls of Tianhong City, there are these two sentences.

And now, at this moment, right now, Shen Shi finally saw it, and then, like everyone who arrived here in Tianhong City for the first time, he was shocked by this incomparably magnificent city that was almost beyond the limit of imagination.

As they got closer, the city became clearer in the setting sun, and the huge blue-gray walls reached into the sky, and at the same time extended towards the surroundings, with no end in sight, as if it had been stretched all the way to the end of this world.

The entire heavens and the earth seemed to be divided into two halves by this huge wall, half outside the city and half inside the city.

Du Tiejian's voice still echoed softly in Shen Shi's ears, and in a plain and slightly lazy and somewhat lazy voice, he casually told him about the famous deeds of this famous city.

"That city wall was built by those demon clans tens of thousands of years ago, when the Heavenly Demon King Court, I don't know what method they used back then, in short, it is still standing today, which is also amazing. Back then, those royal court demon clans were extremely poor and luxurious, and they did countless unbelievable and grotesque things, and this city wall was one of them. ”

"It stretches for thousands of miles, wrapping the whole Tianhong City as big as a state, hence the name 'Great Wall'. ”

"The Great Wall...... Shen Shi looked at the majestic city wall that shook people's hearts in a daze, only feeling that he was as small and fragile as an ant under this city, and he thought that it was the ancestors of the demon clan who built such a miraculous building back then, and his mood was a little complicated for a while.

Du Tiejian looked at this great city wall, although there was also admiration in his eyes, but he sneered faintly, and said: "Although the Great Wall is great, ancient and unparalleled, it has never really had the ability to defend, it is just the play of those demon emperors of the Heavenly Demon Court in the past. Such a huge and towering is just a showcase, the final battle of the demon war was here, although the Great Wall is strong and tall, but the length of thousands of miles is full of loopholes, there is no defense at all, and it was directly killed into the city by our human army, and went straight to the Demon Emperor Palace. ”

Shen Shi was silent, Du Tiejian also laughed as he spoke, led him all the way, and gave him a rough overview of the situation in Hongcheng this day.

The saying that Tianhongcheng is a city and a state has a long history, and it has been widely spread in the Hongmeng worlds and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which naturally makes sense. Although there are exaggerations, they are basically the same.

This famous city is indeed extremely large, far more than all the cities in the world.

The Great Wall of China is the boundary, encompassing a huge amount of land into it, and there are even two rolling mountain ranges, before the Heavenly Demon Palace, most of the people gathered in this city were the royal court demon clan, and now it is naturally the world of the human race, and with the passage of ten thousand years, this city is not only not weakened, but more and more prosperous, countless human races gather here from all directions, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has gathered the elite of the world.

Today, the population living in this Tianhong City has long been uncountable, and some people have even said that the population of this city is several times that of an ordinary state, and the dense residences are not only in Tianhong City, and even in those places outside the Great Wall, there are now countless new and old houses, spreading away, forming a large and prosperous place.

For convenience, the human race roughly divided this giant city into four pieces, named after the four phases of the green dragon and white tiger vermilion bird Xuanwu, according to Du Tiejian's introduction, the Qinglong District is the east of Tianhong, where the main body is a tall and majestic Qinglong Mountain Range, in the era of the Heavenly Demon King Court is where the imperial palace of the demon clan is located, and now it has turned into a labyrinth of ruins. Legend has it that because the war in the past was too bloody, there were countless ghosts and ghosts, and the demon clan was wiped out with a terrifying resentful blood curse, so the entire Qinglong Mountain Range could not live in people, and the ruins of the palace of the demon emperor were full of ghosts and shadows, and there were all kinds of monsters and ghosts, but it is said that in the past the demon palace there were countless treasures of heaven and earth, and rare and heavy treasures were everywhere, so for thousands of years, I don't know how many human monks who went to explore and hunt for treasures.

In addition, the north is the White Tiger District, and the west is the Vermilion Bird District, all of which are prosperous, especially the countless shops in the White Tiger District, which converge into the world's most prosperous market, and even the main hall of the Hongmeng First Chamber of Commerce Immortal Club is also here. There are countless spiritual materials gathered here, whether you have heard or not, thought of it or not, everything can be found in this magical place, provided you have enough spiritual crystals.

Legend has it that in Tianhong City, there is a saying that with spirit crystals, there is everything.

In addition to these three places, there is the last place is the Xuanwu District in the south, but it is faintly different, it is said that there are many high gates, the family gathers here, the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger are unfathomable, the scenery is quiet and unique, but it is the quietest place in Tianhong City.

As he spoke, Shen Shi and Du Tiejian had already walked under the Great Wall.

Along the way, outside the city walls, on both sides of the road, Shen Shi saw a continuous and lively house building, which was no different from the scene in an ordinary city, obviously the population was too much, and even the vast Tianhong City could not accommodate it, so he simply lived outside the city.

Not far ahead, a city gate that seemed to be forever open was open, and countless passers-by came and went.

Shen Shi glanced at this huge city gate, and suddenly thought in his heart for no reason, ten thousand years ago, when the Terran army besieged Tianhong City, how many people rushed into the city from here?

In this way, in the afterglow of the sunset, he walked into this city for the first time in his life and walked into Tianhong City.

※※※

After entering the city, Du Tiejian led Shen Shi and did not go directly to the teleportation circle in Haizhou, the magic circle built by the human race can only be teleported across states, at this moment the sun is setting, it is getting late, according to Du Tiejian, only tomorrow morning will go.

Du Tiejian obviously not came to Tianhong City for the first time, it seems that he is very familiar with this place, at this moment they entered the city from the direction of the Dragon Bridge on the Formation Island, in terms of direction, it should be in the Suzaku District of the four districts of Tianhong, and in the twilight that gradually darkened, Du Tiejian took Shen Shi to turn left and right on the street, and soon left the avenue, and actually turned into a narrow and remote alley.

Shen Shi had some doubts in his heart, and followed behind this Senior Brother Du with the little black pig, only to see that Senior Brother Du's face was calm, but his eyes gradually brightened, and he seemed to be a little excited, and his steps also faintly sped up, making the little black pig hum a few times in the back of his head as if he was complaining.

The floor of the alley is made of stone slabs, although it is narrow, but it is very clean, and there is no dirty sewage as expected, and there are not many houses on either side, but the high walls are towering, and it looks like the backyard of a large family. Just when Shen Shi was thinking wildly, Du Tiejian suddenly stopped and stood in front of a window in front of him.

There were no doors, just a wooden window facing the alley, and it was closed.

It was quiet, and it was a little darker, so that the wooden window looked a little blurry.

Du Tiejian's eyes were bright, and when he walked to the wooden window, he carefully knocked on the window three times under Shen Shi's surprised gaze.

The low but clear voice of "pop pop ......" echoed in this alley.

The wooden window did not move at all, and there was no reaction.

When Shen Shizheng was a little puzzled, he saw Du Tiejian frown slightly, and then reached out and knocked twice.

The wooden windows are still motionless.

Could it be that the person Senior Brother Du is looking for is not there? Shen Shi thought in his heart.

Du Tiejian waited for a while, and found that the window still didn't respond, he thought about it, put his huge black sword aside at random, and then began to knock on the window over and over again with an astonishing patience.

Over and over again, he actually knocked it down like this, as if no one was around, making Shen Shi begin to wonder what was inside this window. In this way, the wooden window that Du Tiejian had been knocking on until I don't know if it was a dozen or twenty times, suddenly squeaked, and the wooden window was violently pushed open.

A faint fragrance suddenly spread with the opening of the wooden window, permeating the alley, Shen Shi's face suddenly changed slightly, and he seemed to have some familiar feeling of déjà vu.

It was the smell of wine.

An annoyed voice came out of the wooden window, and said angrily: "Bastard, are you annoyed, don't you know that Lao Tzu only sells wine during the day, and he won't do business at this time!"

Du Tiejian, who has always been extremely strong in Shen Shi's eyes from the time they met, suddenly showed a bit of a smile on his face, and smiled at the person in the wooden window: "Isn't it late for me to come here?

"Not for sale!"

Du Tiejian smiled: "If you don't sell it, I'll keep knocking until dawn." ”

"You ......" The person in the window seemed to be angry, but it seemed that he couldn't do anything about this bald man, and he chattered and complained for a while, to the effect that he was young and ignorant, and he knew you, an unlucky person, who had been unlucky all his life, Du Tiejian was not angry, he stood at the window with a smile, took out a few spirit crystals from his arms and threw them in.

The person inside said angrily: "What kind of wine do you want?"

Du Tiejian swallowed his saliva obviously, and said, "The best one to come to you, Huadiao?" Well, Shijing is not bad, or ......."

In the middle of his words, he suddenly heard the person in the window interrupt him, and said: "I have recently made a new wine, which is quite new, different from the past, and the taste should be excellent, and it has not been sold yet, do you want to ......?"

Du Tiejian leaned forward all of a sudden, overjoyed, and even the bald head was a little brighter in the past, which was more conspicuous in the night, and said with a smile: "If you want it, you can't do anything else, this brewing skill is absolutely unparalleled in the world, give me some!"

"Hmph......" The man in the window snorted, although he seemed to be disdainful, but it was not difficult to hear that there was still a bit of smugness in his voice.

After a while, a verdant and turquoise wine gourd was suddenly thrown out of the wooden window, Du Tiejian caught it, and eagerly pulled out the stopper, and suddenly a fragrance gushed out, even if Shen Shi stood a little farther away, he could smell it, and faintly felt that there was some difference from the previous wine aroma, the mellow meaning was slightly reduced, and the taste of the fragrance was victorious, although he did not drink it and had a hearty heart, such as the wind passing through the bamboo forest, a piece of verdant, quiet and elegant, refreshing people's spleen.

Before I knew it, I was sweet.

Du Tiejian took a deep breath, his eyes closed slightly, as if he was half drunk at this smell, and he couldn't help but exhale, and exclaimed: "This taste, if you don't drink it, you know it's a good wine, good."
