Chapter 7: The First Time and Space Encounter

Quartet City. The Long Family.

A seven-year-old child was squatting by a lotus pond with a wide area in a daze.

This child is carrying the memories of another time and space to the dragon legend in the time and space where the person in the mirror was born. Along with the consciousness of the dragon, there is also the very spiritual green vine.

The difficulty of helping another person cross time and space with memories far exceeds the estimation of the person in the mirror. In order to help Long Chuan carry the memory and Qingteng successfully cross, the people in the mirror tried their best to exhaust all the remaining immortal yuan, and finally let Long Chuan successfully reincarnate in this time and space without danger.

According to the original plan of the person in the mirror, after the dragon legend successfully crossed with the memory, the person in the mirror will let Qingteng absorb all the immortal yuan contained in all the divine weapons and various magic weapons on his body, store them first, and then slowly feed them back to the dragon legend, so that the dragon legend can go more smoothly on the road of cultivating immortals in this time and space. But in the process of leapfrogging, in addition to exhausting all the remaining immortal yuan of himself, the person in the mirror also consumed all the items on his body, so as to ensure that the consciousness of Long Chuan was not damaged in the slightest.

In the past seven years, Dragon Legend has already had a general understanding of this time and space.

I don't know if it's a deliberate arrangement by the people in the mirror, the master family of the dragon who was born in this time and space is also the Long family. As soon as Long Chuan was born, the name given to Long Chuan by the family was also called Long Chuan.

The place where the Long family is located is called Sifang City. As the name suggests, the city is boxy.

The name of the city is one city, but in fact it consists of five cities.

There is a city in each of the four directions, southeast, northwest, and north, which are called the East City, the South City, the West City, and the North City. These four cities were surrounded by a high and square wall. The four cities themselves are also boxy, and each is surrounded by a tall boxy wall.

In the center of these four cities, there was a ring of even taller walls that protected the other city. This city within a city is called the city of Fu. The eastern, southern, western, and northern cities are known as the Acropolis.

The eastern, southern, western, and northern cities each have a city lord, called the acropolis lord, who is responsible for the affairs of the city's soldiers, agriculture, industry, and commerce. In the central city of the city, there is also a city lord, called the city lord, who is the top boss of the four acropolis lords of the east, south, west, and north.

The Acropolis Lord of Dongcheng, named Long Zheng, is the father of Long Chuan in this time and space, and he is also the current head of the Long family. The lord of the southern city, named Xia Yuqiu. The city lord of Xicheng is named Huang Yihao. The city lord of Beicheng is named Cheng Liming. Among these four people, only Xia Yufeng, the city lord of Nancheng, is a woman.

As for the lord of the mansion in the main city, Long Chuan only knew that his surname was Tangtai, but his specific name was not clear.

This information was all heard by Long Chuan from the idle chatter of the Long family.

As a seven-year-old child, Long Chuan has never been out of Dongcheng. Even in Dongcheng, Long Chuan has only been to a few places with the elders of the family. After going around Dongcheng for a while with the elders of the family for the first time, the first thing that Long Chuan thought of was Xi'an, the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties in another time and space. It's just that this city is not known how many times larger than the ancient city in Xi'an City in another time and space.

In fact, according to the Dragon's estimates, this eastern city is not far behind any of the great cities that the Dragon's Legend, both in terms of size and population, has been in another time and space.

When he first came to this plane, Long Chuan didn't see much that surprised him.

The people here are no different from the people Long Chuan has seen in another time and space, they all carry two shoulders and one head. Most of the people in Dongcheng also have yellow skin and black eyes, so the moment Long Chuan opened his eyes in this time and space, they were a little suspicious that he was still in the original time and space. However, seeing this, Long Chuan faintly felt that this might be one of the reasons why the person in the mirror crossed countless time and space, and after finding Long Chuan, he no longer continued to cross.

In addition to the yellow-skinned and black-eyed people, there were also some people in Dongcheng who looked a little different, similar to the foreigners that Long Chuan had seen in another time and space.

So far, apart from these people, Ryuden has not seen any other different beings in the picture he saw through the eyes of the man in the mirror before he crossed over.

The starry sky here is no different from the other time and space where the Dragon Legend is located.

In the morning, the sun rises. At night, the stars and the moon appear. It's just that Long Chuan understands in his heart that the sun in the sky is no longer the sun he has seen for decades.

As for the stars, Long Chuan was not sure how many of them he had once looked at in another time and space.

The moon, like the sun, is certainly not. Because, in the night sky here, there are three moons.

In the same place as another time and space, there are also the changing seasons here, and there are also sunny and rainy weather. There are also mountains and rivers here, and there are birds and animals here. It's just that the mountains and rivers here are bigger, the rivers are clearer, there are more birds, and there are more animals.

The method of timing here, although slightly different from the other time and space before the Dragon Legend crossed, is also much the same.

Here, there are also concepts of years, months, and days, but there are no such terms as weeks, hours, minutes, and seconds. In addition to the year, month, and day, there are also timekeeping methods such as ten, hour, incense, carving, and rest. Ten days is ten days, one day is twelve hours, one hour is two incense sticks, one incense stick is four quarters, and one quarter is two hundred breaths.

The dragon legend was converted according to the general timekeeping method in another time and space, and one hour in this time and space is equivalent to two hours in another time and space. A stick of incense in this time and space is equivalent to an hour in another time and space. One moment in one time is equivalent to fifteen minutes in another time and space. One breath in one plane is equivalent to four to five seconds in another space-time.

If there is any difference in the feeling of the dragon in this time and space, it is three.

For one, the air in this plane is much cleaner than in another plane where Dragon Legend was originally located.

In another time and space, Long Chuan has been working in that southern city since he graduated. As soon as you go out every day, you can feel the thick air of car exhaust, industrial exhaust fumes and the dust kicked up by construction sites and vehicles everywhere. When you look up, the sky is often gray.

Even back in the small town where you are home, the air is a little fresher, but there is still something in common. Only when he returns to the countryside will Long Chuan feel that there are no things in the air that make people's noses and throats feel uncomfortable.

The air in this time and space is much cleaner than in the countryside in another time and space, and even in the health resorts that claim to have a high content of negative ions. This may be one of the reasons why the average person in this time and space can live up to two hundred years.

Another difference is that, according to the judgment of the Dragon Chuan, there are indeed immortal cultivators in this time and space. There are two reasons for this.

First, it is said that among the Long family, there are several immortal cultivators. It's just that these people are not the children of the Long family, but outsiders who are worshiped by the Long family. None of these people have ever been seen in Long Chuan. The people in the family rarely talk about these immortal cultivators. Even when these immortal cultivators are occasionally mentioned, the people in the family are secretive.

Long Chuan only knew that in the huge Long Family Mansion, there was an extremely mysterious courtyard. This courtyard is listed as a forbidden place among the Long family. Without Long Zheng's permission and accompaniment, anyone who stepped into this forbidden place would end up in a different place.

Second, when Long Chuan went to some places in the East City with the elders of his family, he found that some of the big shops in the city traded some strange medicinal herbs, stones, materials and other items that were obviously not used by ordinary people. According to the judgment of the Dragon Chuan, these items that ordinary people can't use are likely to be things used by immortal cultivators.

The third difference is that in this plane, there doesn't seem to be any of the festivals that dragons have in another plane. Since being born on this plane to the present, Dragon Legend has not had a festival. If there are really any days with a festive atmosphere, what Long Chuan has experienced or seen is all kinds of birthdays and marriages. What's more, after Long Chuan was born, the Long family once held a 100-day banquet on the 100 days after he was born. Long Chuan heard that when he turned ten years old, the Long family would hold a bigger wedding banquet.

Well, if there was anything else, it was that in the seven years that Dragon Legend had lived in the East City, he hadn't seen any advanced electronic devices and vehicles in another time and space. The overall state here is more like the appearance of ancient China described in various documents and films in another time and space. Ordinary people here basically rely on walking to travel, and basic communication relies on roaring.

In the past seven years, Long Chuan has learned some other things about this Sifang City from his own observations and the discussions of his family.

The Eastern City, where the Long family is located, has to deliver some items every month to the Fucheng located in the center of the Sifang City. On the first day of each month, the dragon family can be seen escorting many carts to the capital city. These carts are filled with the common currency of the place, gold coins.

In addition to the large number of gold coins being escorted to Fucheng every month, every six months, other things from the Long family are transported to Fucheng. Most of these items are some strange medicinal herbs, stones, and materials.

And every time he escorted these items, Long Zheng had to go with him personally. In addition to Long Zheng, there will be several extremely mysterious carts accompanying the escort team. These carts are so closed that you can't see who or what is in them. According to the news that Long Chuan heard, among these carts, it is very likely that they are the immortal cultivators worshiped by the Long family.

In addition to these, in the past seven years, Dragon Legend has also obtained some news related to several other cities in Sifang City.

First of all, according to the news that Long Chuan heard, not only the Long family has immortal cultivators, but also the Nancheng Xia family, the Xicheng Huang family, and the Beicheng Cheng family, all of which have immortal cultivators. Even the city lord of the Sifang City Mansion, the Tai family, also has people who cultivate immortals. It's just that among the remaining families, it is unknown whether those immortal cultivators are from their own family or outsiders who worship the same as the Long family.

Secondly, in addition to the eastern city, the three acropolises of the southern city, the western city, and the northern city also need to regularly deliver goods to the capital city in the center of the square city. As for whether it is like Dongcheng, which has to be transported every month, what kind of items are transported, and what is the number of items, so far, Long Chuan has not heard anyone mention it.

Third, the four acropolises in the east, south, west, and north, although they are all led by the governor of the central part of the four square cities, and there is nothing to do with each other, but there will also be some competition. So far, Long Chuan has only heard of it, and for the Long family and Dongcheng, this kind of competition is related to the gold coins and items that the Long family needs to regularly transport to the capital city. What kind of law is it, no one in the Long family has ever talked about it in front of Long Chuan.

Fourth, the acropolis lords of the four acropolises in the east, south, west, and north have different relationships in private. According to Long Chuan's observations and what he heard, the relationship between the eastern city and the southern city was better, and the relationship between the western city and the northern city was better.

In the seven years since Long Chuan was born in this time and space, people from the Xia family in Nancheng have often walked around the Long family. Even Xia Yuqiu, the acropolis lord of Nancheng, occasionally came to the Long family. Every time Xia Yuqiu comes, he must pinch on the left side of Long Chuan's face, pinch it on the right side, and rub it back and forth, and kiss Long Chuan's face by the way.

And the people of the two acropolis lords of Xicheng and Beicheng rarely came to the Long family. As for Huang Yihao, the lord of the Acropolis of the West City, and Cheng Liming, the lord of the Acropolis of the North City, in the impression of Long Chuan, he had never seen them.
