Chapter 50: Entering the City
Just before the night was about to cover the sky, a large city appeared in front of the caravan, standing above the plain. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info This city is much larger than the water-rich city that Lu Qi has seen before, and you can see the city cabinet buildings and tall towers from afar.
Walking into it, you can feel its enormity even more, as an ancient city with a population of nearly a million people, but there are no towering buildings. You can only imagine the plane expansion around it, and you can imagine how huge it is. This is another kind of beauty that the modern city did not have in the previous life, and there are attics and palaces everywhere. Seeing this huge city, Lu Qi could only find this sentence in his mind to describe it: "Covering more than 300 miles, covering the sky and the sun!"
This is simply a realistic version of the Afang Palace! Moreover, this is much larger than the Afang Palace that Lu Qi saw in Chang'an, Qindi, in his previous life, which was restored by modern people. I'm afraid that Chang'an City is not as big as this ancient city.
"Brother Lu, take a good look, this is the largest city in Jiangzhou Prefecture, Jiangzhou City! Shock! I was also very shocked when I first came here ten years ago, I have never seen such a big city. They say that the city of Jiangzhou has gone through seven dynasties and has never been caught in a war for more than 2,000 years. Therefore, the more it is built, the bigger it gets, and when it comes to size, even the capital is slightly inferior to it!" Hu Sheng said with pride on his face.
Lu Qi slowly recovered from the shock and looked at Hu Sheng: "Brother Hu has been to the capital?"
"I haven't been there, although I have been with the caravan all year round, but I go to the same place every year. And when they go to the capital, they all take the waterway from the Jiangzhou wharf, so they don't need me as a coachman. So I haven't been there yet. Hu Sheng replied honestly.
"The world is so big, don't you want to go and see it?" Lu Qi unconsciously turned on the comic mode.
"Well, what's there to see here, there are so many robbers and thieves now, I don't know how to die when I go! ”
Lu Qi couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed after hearing this, after all, his body was born as a bandit. He was still a little embarrassed to be said to his face. Having said that, I haven't been back to the cottage for so long, and it is estimated that the cheap dads in the cottage are going to die in a hurry!
Speaking of which, Lu Qi has been entangled with bandits since he crossed over. This body predecessor was robbed and killed, allowing Lu Qi to obtain the body. Now the cheap dad is a thief again, Lu Qi himself has robbed tombs, and the only complete knowledge-based skill is a professional book on tomb robbing.
Because of the gold talisman and ghost word order on his body, Xie Wufeng and others determined that he was the heir of the funeral family. But this burial family, this one knows that it is not a famous faction when he hears the name, and it must have something to do with tomb robbery and gold business. Even Lu Qi had a hunch that he might have nothing to do with this gold robbery in the future.
Retracting his thoughts, in order to avoid embarrassment, Lu Qi quickly diverted the topic: "Brother Hu, what are you going to do after entering the city?"
"I, of course I'm going home, my wife and children are still waiting for me at home!" Hu Sheng said with a look of course.
Lu Qi looked at Hu Sheng and pursed his lips, thought about it, and finally said it: "Then what about your wood carving?"
"Wood carving?" Hu Sheng was stunned, obviously he hadn't thought about it.
"Brother Hu, I won't hide it with you. Your wood carving can absorb spiritual power, although I don't know what it is, but it's certainly not a simple thing. As a martial arts practitioner, I really wanted to figure out what it was. But I don't want to rob you of your things, I just hope that one day, when I feel that my spiritual power is enough to explore this wood carving, you can let me explore this wood carving, if you learn any martial arts, I will try to teach it to you and protect your descendants. What do you think?"
Hu Sheng nodded after listening to Lu Qi's words, and said, "Brother Lu, I'll give you the wood carving directly, and it's useless if I want that." If you hadn't discovered the secret, I would have been treated as a laughing stock by those people! As for martial arts or something, we wouldn't be that material! When I was a child, the master of the martial arts hall told me that it would be good for me to be an ordinary person in my life, and I had no qualifications to practice martial arts. ”
"No, Brother Hu, I do want your things, but I can't take them for nothing. If it's really a martial arts secret book, I'll write it down and give it to you, so that your ancestors can pass it on from generation to generation. Even if you can't practice, your son and grandson, sooner or later, someone will be able to practice. Don't refuse, or I won't be able to look at your wood carvings in vain. I passed on my martial arts to you, and I can be regarded as understanding people's feelings. Shall we just settle it like this?" Lu Qi said seriously.
"Okay, in fact, Brother Lu, you don't have to be like this, you saved my life and saved the entire caravan. It's just a wood carving, is it of any use to me. Just give it to you directly, you're still so polite. If you have to do this, then I won't stop you. My family lives in the east of the city, near the Jiangzhou wharf, if you come, you can find someone to ask. Saying that, Hu Sheng drew a map for Lu Qi on the carriage.
Lu Qi took two glances and remembered that it didn't take long for the caravan to enter the city. Lu Qi got out of the car with his two large bookcases, and it didn't take long for Yang Xing and Yan Ge to come over.
"Zhang Yuan followed the caravan back to report, he plans to resign from the position of the guard and follow you and be your general. The two of us also want to follow you, I don't know if you can accept us?" the two looked at Lu Qi a little nervously.
Although he knew that Lu Qi was a person who valued love and righteousness, the two of them were still a little apprehensive at the moment. After all, although several people have had a lifelong friendship, they don't know the rest of the information. Zhang Yuan is okay, he is a regular guard, but the two of them are still somewhat complicated.
Lu Qi looked at the two of them and smiled: "It's all friends or not, since you are willing to follow me, then I will accept it, but I can say okay, I used to be a bandit." If you don't know when, you still have to go up the mountain. ”
"Bandits? Are you serious? Then we have to hurry up and prepare for the Green Forest Conference in the middle of the lake on August 15. Yang Xing said with a serious face. Since he decided to follow Lu Qi, he didn't care about Lu Qi's identity for a long time. After all, he himself has been on the rivers and lakes for so many years, and he has never seen any kind of person. He was also tired after wandering for most of his life, and now he finally found a Maxima who values love. And it's still undetected. He also has fastidious ideas there.
Just thinking about hugging his thighs first, Yan Ge also thought so. Lu Qi looked at the two of them seriously considering his plans to be a bandit in the future, and he couldn't accept it for a while.
When did the bandit become such a righteous profession? The world is crazy. Lu Qi shook his head, picked up the bookcase, and followed the two towards the inn. As they walked, they listened to the two of them talk about some of the bandit industry.
After hearing this, I learned a lot of interesting things, it turns out that this bandit, tomb robber, thief or something also has a guild.
Because it was late, the two didn't talk in detail, sent Lu Qi back to the room, and went back to sleep. Several people agreed to take a good walk around Jiangzhou City the next day.
