Chapter 41: Changes in the City Lord's Mansion
At this moment, I saw that on the banks of the lava river, there were blacksmith shops.
The sturdy man was shirtless, tempering the reddened iron.
When the iron is a little cold, it is heated directly in the lava.
This row of buildings stretches to the end, and there are at least 100 blacksmith shops.
"With so many blacksmith shops, who do they sell the things they produce?" Yang Yiyun asked with some puzzlement.
"The things they build don't sell, they're the exclusive blacksmith shop that belongs to the City Lord's Mansion!" said the foolish old man with a smile.
"It turned out to be the exclusive blacksmith shop of the City Lord's Mansion, what are they trying to build so much?" Ning Yun was also a little curious.
"Take a closer look at the finished product behind them!" said the foolish old man as he looked at Ning Yun and Yang Yiyun, and then pointed to the open space behind the blacksmith shop.
Following the direction of the foolish old man's finger, Yang Yiyun saw the dark iron pillar, but there were joints on the iron pillar.
The black pillar is about a foot high, the thickness of the wellhead, and the tip has a thin iron sheet that looks like a fingernail.
At this moment, Yang Yiyun seemed to understand, this is a finger, a steel finger.
A finger is a zhang long, so how big should this ironclad man be!
Yang Yiyun didn't dare to imagine it for a while!
The boat continued to move forward, and soon reached a huge platform, on which Yang Yiyun parked the boat.
Ning Yun and Yu Lao walked ashore, and Yang Yiyun went ashore and put the boat into a black cloth bag.
Then they walked towards the northern city, and through the wide gates, the sight before them was unusually spectacular.
In front of it is a smooth bluestone pavement, more than ten zhang wide, with a huge road surface of three or four miles long.
Merchants set up stalls on both sides of the road, as well as some permanent shops.
This prosperous scene is in great contrast to the atmosphere in the village.
And at the end of the wide road, there was a tall iron armor.
On the wide street, Yang Yiyun and the three of them walked a little empty.
When he approached the ironclad giant, Yang Yiyun was still shocked!
The ironclad giant was more than twenty feet tall, and Yang Yiyun looked insignificant in front of him at this moment.
"Such a big ironclad giant, is it just for display in the city, this is too much of a waste of manpower and financial resources. Looking up at the huge ironclad giant, Yang Yiyun said with some puzzlement.
"This is no ordinary ironclad giant, see those rusty cracks on his body, those are the military medals of this giant. The foolish old man looked at Yang Yiyun and shook his head and said.
"What! This ironclad giant has experienced a battle?" Ning Yun was also a little surprised at the moment.
"They're our hope of survival!" the foolish old man looked at the ironclad giant, his heart full of contemplation.
It turns out that these ironclad giants are the hope of survival in the Cursed Lands, and this is also the property of everyone in the Cursed Lands.
The Iron Giants are operated by five men who work together to guard the ten important passes in the Mist Lands.
They guard the depths of different areas, preventing overly powerful beasts from rushing into the human living area.
If these beasts reach the interior of the Cursed Lands, they will destroy countless villages.
There will be no room for human beings, and the cursed land will only become a paradise for fierce beasts.
Even though the blacksmith shop outside kept making it, it had only made twenty of these ironclad giants so far.
The ironclad giant in the city was damaged in a time to block the beast, and the scars on his body could not be repaired.
In order to prevent the beast from breaking through the pass, four of the five people died, and the lord of the city placed it here as a symbol to inspire the people of the Cursed Land.
I also want to warn everyone that your current peace is guarded by someone.
These ironclad giants, known as the Ironclad Blackguards, are the guardians of the Cursed Lands.
And when the foolish old man came to Vientiane City this time, he also came to hand over the village's tribute to Yujing once every three years.
Although there are not many jade crystals donated by each village, it can be regarded as their modest efforts.
After listening to the introduction of the foolish old man, Yang Yiyun immediately admired those who were guarding the pass, they were real warriors.
These ironclad giants should be the most powerful force of humanity in the entire Cursed Lands.
"It's hard to find someone who manipulates the Iron Giant, and every one of them is a brave man with strong mental power. Only in this way can you withstand the pressure of manipulating the ironclad giants. The foolish old man also reminded at this time.
Then the group of three continued to walk forward, and not far from them was a huge courtyard.
When they approached, they found that the plaque on the gate had the words "City Lord's Mansion" written on it, which was also their destination this time.
They walked towards the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and as soon as they reached the gate, they were stopped by the guards guarding them.
"There is an accident in the City Lord's Mansion, so we will not accept guests for the time being!" the guard said!
"We are the village that paid tribute this time, can't we?" asked Yang Yiyun with some puzzlement.
"Go back and wait for the time being, and when you can enter the city lord's mansion, you will be notified of the cloth!" The guards heard that they were paying tribute, and their tones suddenly softened a lot.
"In previous years, no matter what happened, the City Lord's Mansion would open the door for those who paid tribute to enter. This year is so strange, it seems that the City Lord's Mansion has suffered a big change. The foolish old man turned and walked out as he spoke.
It seems that the three of them can only find a place to stay overnight.
Yang Yiyun and Ning Yun also kept up with the pace of the foolish old man!
At this moment, an old man in gray hurriedly walked towards him, and accidentally bumped into Yang Yiyun.
"Grandpa didn't hit it, did you?" Yang Yiyun hurriedly picked up the arm of the gray-clothed old man, and then asked with concern.
"It's the old man who is too anxious, I'm really embarrassed to bump into the young man!" the old man looked up and wanted to apologize, but he was stunned for a moment.
"Foolish old man!"
"Xiao Liang!"
Two voices rang out at the same time!
Yang Yiyun and Ning Yun looked at the two old men and looked at each other, especially this "Xiao Liang", which was a little confusing.
Forehead!
Looking at the foolish old man calling this gray-clothed old man Xiao Liang, Yang Yiyun always felt weird.
"I haven't seen you for thirty years, but you're fine!" said Liang Lao respectfully, seeing that the two of them were not of the same generation.
"Xiao Liang said goodbye that day, and thirty years have passed, and the years are really unforgiving!"
"It's thanks to the teachings of the foolish old man that I have the current me!" said Liang Lao's face was sincere.
"During that time, I just did it casually, and it was fortunate that I would share one or two of what I had gained in my life, and it would be helpful to you!" the foolish old man waved his hand.
"Grandpa Liang, did something happen to you walking to the City Lord's Mansion in such a hurry?"
"This matter should not be publicized, and I also invite the foolish old man and the two young men to the city lord's mansion to talk about it, I believe that the foolish old man will definitely have a solution!" said Liang Lao with some excitement.
When the four of them walked to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, the guards just now saluted respectfully and said a word Master!
Liang Lao turned out to be the master of the City Lord's Mansion, and this was the most powerful person under the City Lord of the entire Vientiane City.
Yang Yiyun was a little surprised in his heart!
