Chapter 104: Sunrise Division
On the street, a few people who had settled down were touring Sunrise City under the introduction of Brother Huo'er.
Speaking of which, Lu Yu is also visiting these ancient style big cities for the first time, but obviously the big cities in this world are really big.
"The length of the city is about 900 steps, the width of the city is about 640 steps, and the height of the city is 125 feet, and no one knows how many years it is, but I heard that it has a history of more than 3,000 years. Brother Huo'er introduced as he walked.
For more than three thousand years, when they heard this scale again, Lin Yifan and Ye Yuncheng were both a little frightened.
Lu Yu asked when he heard it: "I heard, isn't there any record?" ”
"Anyway, I've heard it for as long as I can remember, and it is said that the world was still in turmoil at that time, who knows, maybe some big families will have a record. "Brother Huo'er is also a spreader.
"Well, I see, but I heard that the organizers of the martial arts meetings in previous years were born between the Gongsun family and the Huyan family, why is this year the Ouyang family with no show of force. Lu Yu asked again.
"Most people only think that the people of the Ouyang family are good at tricks, but they ignore the fact that they can rely on the tricks to develop the family to a point where they can really rely on the other two families. "Although Brother Huo'er is just a small Si, he knows a lot of characters because of his personality, and he has a lot of knowledge.
"Oh~, I want to hear about it!"
"The rise of this Ouyang family is also a miracle, which of the big families in various places today has not developed to the point where it is today with hundreds of years of accumulation, but the rise of this Ouyang family is only less than a hundred years.
Probably when my grandfather's generation was young, there was also a turmoil between the Gongsun family and the Huyan family in the north, but no one knows the reason, all the forces in the north participated in it, and the current pattern was also the cards that were shuffled at that time.
This Ouyang family also suddenly rose at that time, and with lightning speed to eat away at the various forces that had suffered a great loss in strength, and finally when the two major forces that were fighting finally discovered this new force that was rising, the two major forces that were greatly injured at the same time found that the Ouyang family that relied on the mechanism was still not something they could handle at will.
And in my opinion, the most powerful thing about the Ouyang family is still resourcefulness, just like this martial arts meeting, there was originally a slight gap between the Ouyang family and the other two major families in terms of their heritage and prestige.
It's just that the Ouyang family didn't know how to first win over some other forces in the north to get their support, and finally didn't know how to get the support of the Kyushu Business Alliance.
This made this martial arts meeting fall on the head of the Ouyang family without any suspense. ”
Although it didn't talk about the ingenuity of the people of the Ouyang family, Lu Yu could also see what Brother Huo'er wanted to express from the side of the matter.
"Tricks, it's amazing, is there here, can you take me to see it. She didn't care about these twists and turns, but it was the tricks that attracted her interest.
"Madame, this Rising Sun City belongs to the Ouyang family, and naturally it also has the mechanism designed by the Ouyang family, and the people of the previous city guard are equipped with hidden crossbows and ropes, and not far ahead is the branch of the Ouyang family in this place, which has all kinds of magical objects, I believe that a few people who have an invitation to the Kyushu Business Alliance can definitely go to visit. ”
Lu Yu also had an interest in the ancient tricks, and the group came to the Ouyang family.
At that moment, two people stopped a few people who wanted to enter, "Come and stop, where the Ouyang family is, idlers are not allowed to enter." ”
"The two eldest brothers, these are the distinguished guests of the Kyushu Business Alliance, and I heard about the Ouyang family's stunts, so I specially wanted to come and visit. As soon as Brother Huo'er said, the two people guarding the door really hesitated.
At this time, perhaps he noticed the movement outside the door, and a man walked to the door and asked, "What's going on outside!"
"Steward Liu, these people said that they were from the Kyushu Business Alliance, and they wanted to come in and have a visit. ”
This Steward Liu was also embarrassed when he heard it, but seeing that this invitation did not seem to be a fraud, now their Ouyang family and the Kyushu Business Alliance are in a cooperative relationship, and it is unwise to rashly offend the other party's distinguished guests.
After muttering for a while, he saw that he summoned another person, and after whispering a few words in his ear, he officially walked in front of Lu Yu and the others.
"A few people, although this is only a branch, please don't enter some places. Yang Mingle, you take a few people to go shopping, remember not to neglect a few people. ”
Small families have their own private places, not to mention the Ouyang family, Lu Yu can understand.
"Come with me, ladies and gentlemen. ”
Lu Yu and the others also followed behind this person.
"In front of it is the place where the Ouyang family draws water every day. ”
Just after a few people walked along the corridor for dozens of steps, Yang Mingle led everyone to stop here.
I could only hear the murmuring of water, and above a huge clearing, a deep pit made of stones was full of clear spring water, and a few bamboo pipes hanging above it were dripping from time to time.
The walls of the cistern also have several pipes leading to other places, but although they were rare in ancient times, they are not very rare.
"Wow, it's amazing, how did this work, where did the water come from?" Qin Ningshuang was naturally very curious about this novel thing.
"It should be a windmill, a waterwheel, and a bamboo pipe placed high and low. Lin Yifan had also seen it, and immediately guessed.
Yang Mingle also nodded and said, "Your Excellency is right, it's actually not a big deal. A few of you, please come with me, I'll take a few of you to the model warehouse to take a look, where most of the mechanism objects that are now used by the Ouyang family are placed. ”
Following all the way again, several people came to a clearing again, but this clearing was much larger than the previous reservoir, and several towering siege equipment immediately came into everyone's eyes.
"These are all siege equipment made by my Ouyang family, and they have been modified many times before they become what they see now, as for these wooden boxes inlaid with wheels, they are used for transportation, but they are quite troublesome to manufacture but cannot be promoted. ”
Ye Yifan and Ye Yuncheng had only heard of it, but they had never seen the real thing, and several people were fascinated by it, but Lu Yu just looked at these things casually, and instead focused his eyes on the outside of the wall of this huge open space.
For he clearly heard a slight rumbling sound, but it was too soft, and it quickly disappeared, so that he thought for a moment that it was just an auditory hallucination.
'Discover the true secret of the Ouyang family's trick - the reward has disappeared without a trace.
However, he asked casually: "I heard that the crossbow and rope used by the people of the city guard are also provided by the Ouyang family, are they in that room?" ”
Yang Mingle didn't know why the other party suddenly mentioned these standard accessories, and his expression became a little cautious, but these were not secrets, and he didn't hide them.
"Although the Ouyang family is one of the three major forces in the north today, it is only accumulated, and there are many people in the clan who are not good at martial arts, and they often have some personal objects with them, but they are useless in the face of real masters, these objects are in the front room, but they are not allowed to enter and exit at will. ”
When Lu Yu heard this, he thought that the other party would prohibit them from entering, but he didn't want the other party to say again: "But a few of them are distinguished guests who are ordered by the host, and it is necessary to enter, but please don't touch other things easily." ”
Lu Yu and the others assured themselves, and then Yang Mingle opened the room where these crossbow arrows and other things were placed.
"The green water crossbow has a range of 150 paces, and it can penetrate ordinary wooden planks. ”
"A chain crossbow with a range of 50 steps, it can shoot 5 crossbow arrows at a time, but it is troublesome to reload and has a shorter range. ”
"The Red Bee Arm Crossbow is powerful and penetrating, and within twenty steps, a third-rate master will be pierced through the heart if he doesn't pay attention. ”
"Climbing Lock。。。。。。。。。 ”
Under a series of introductions, Lu Yu was really a little frightened, this is an ordinary warehouse, it is simply an arsenal, if these things are equipped in large quantities for ordinary people, it is estimated that the second-rate and below are just targets.
And if the attack is intensive. Lu Yu asked himself that even if he was not careful, he could only defend passively, and in the end, he would inevitably die of exhausting his internal strength.
It's just that what really makes him strange is not that the other party would agree to let them visit such a confidential and important place, but that there is no one guarding such a place.
And the strangest thing is that the tone used by the other party to introduce these things along the way is surprisingly flat, and there is no pride in it.
In addition, the tasks that the system had issued to him on the road had not been completed, and it was obvious that these things were not the core skills of the Ouyang family at all, and these weapons that seemed to be able to be used to support the army and self-respect were just a cover to deal with others.
Thinking about it, since Lu Yu himself had reached the first-class, he could clearly judge that as long as he knew that the other party had these things, it would be difficult for others to deal with a martial artist like him under guard.
What's more, he knew that he was not the top group of people in the first-class, and now he was only relying on the cultivation of the seventh layer of internal strength to reach the standard of just entering the first-class, not to mention those above him, and those who surpassed the first-class, they simply ignored these things.
Therefore, if the Ouyang family only relies on these things, although it can also reach the level of the great family, but these things will inevitably encounter peeping, but it will make the family face the catastrophe of annihilation, let alone let it reach the point where it can be compared with a big family like Gongsun Huyan with hundreds of years of history.
Lu Yu felt that there must be a reason for this, and it seemed that he had to do something stealing chickens and dogs tonight.
