When Fan Wu and others entered the imperial city of the Shangwu Dynasty, for the first time, they did not choose to enter through the city gate, but chose to go up the escalators built on the city wall.
The city wall is not vertical, which is why houses can be built on it and escalators can be built on it.
It seems to be because the city wall is too high. If the walls of the city wall are made vertical, the craftsmanship required... is simply not at the level that this world's craftsmanship can achieve.
After walking for a long time, I walked from the base of the city wall to the top of the city wall. At this moment, I was already at an altitude of three hundred feet.
How high is three hundred feet?
Anyway...
When standing in this position, I feel that the wind blowing in my face is very cold, as if I am in a world of ice and snow.
The strong wind blowing from all directions is even stronger. If a thin person stands in this position and does not hold on to the handrail next to him, he may be blown directly to the ground by the wind.
Standing at this position and looking down, I couldn't even see the scene below because it was covered by a layer of clouds.
This is not climbing a city wall, this is clearly climbing a mountain!
"Huh...huh..." Even Yun Jiuqing felt a little unbearable after climbing to such a high place in such a short time. She supported Lao Qingniu's belly with one hand to take a rest.
: "Hey...why is this place so high and steep? I think...we should go through the city gate."
Speaking of this, Yun Jiuqing looked at Lao Qingniu and then at Tianji Coffin. She really couldn't figure out where Lao Qingniu got the brute force to pull up a coffin?
What makes her even more confused is...
The old green ox's own weight is so heavy, and now it has to drag a coffin up.
After doing such a thing, Lao Qingniu was only a little out of breath, but other than that, he didn't seem to be excessively tired.
"Master Yun, I'm afraid you need to practice more, otherwise if you continue like this, you won't even be able to compare with this green bull." Xing Fengzi's truth was like a ball inserted into Yun Jiuqing's body at this moment.
A knife.
Hearing Yun Jiuqing's scream, he gritted his teeth and said, "It sounds like you, a Taoist priest, are not tired."
Xing Fengzi looked a little confused. He didn't know why his truth had angered Yun Jiuqing. However, he continued to tell the truth he wanted to say: "Although I am a little tired, I still want to talk to Yun Jiuqing."
Compared with you, layman, it is obviously much better."
Yun Jiuqing: "..."
Resisting the urge to beat Xing Fengzi violently, Yun Jiuqing could only change the topic awkwardly: "No wonder there are enemies who must use the escalators on this city wall to climb up. We ascetics climb up
We are already so exhausted when we come up. If some ordinary soldiers climbed up, they would even have to hold heavy weapons in their hands and wear heavy armor."
"By the time they climbed up, not only were the day lilies cold, but they themselves were probably going to vomit from exhaustion. In that case, they would not have any soldiers to fight with, and they would probably be defeated by the Shangwu Dynasty's defenders.
Soldiers, a dozen or so can be easily repulsed."
Bai Sheng nodded, agreeing with Yun Jiuqing's statement, and heard him say: "That's true. Unless all the enemy troops are monks, but the monks have to be very tired if they want to come up. Since the imperial court dares to
There are so many escalators built on the city wall, so it is natural that the imperial court had its own ideas."
As a group of them walked along the escalator to the top of the city wall, they naturally attracted the attention of many people.
Because usually very few people would choose not to go through the city gate, but to climb up the escalator. After all, if you climb up, you have to climb down, which is a very arduous journey!
Of course, the most important thing is that Yan Dalong and Yan Dahu, two people with a height of nearly three meters, are too eye-catching.
A group of defenders on the city wall saw these two people at a glance.
Then they felt that these two big men seemed very familiar.
A defender holding a spear not far away could not help but poke the person next to him, and then asked in a low voice: "Boss, have you noticed that those two big guys look familiar! Eh...Boss, you
Why didn't you reply? What's your expression?"
Then the defender noticed that the people next to him had a dumbfounded expression, as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
The person next to him swallowed secretly and opened his mouth in shock: "If I remember correctly, one of the two big men is named Yan Dalong, and the other is named Yan Dahu."
"Yan Dalong and Yan Dahu?" The defender holding a spear thought about these two names. He felt that these two names seemed very familiar. He seemed to have heard them somewhere, but he couldn't remember them for a while.
The person next to him quickly explained to him: "You are young and have just been guarding the army for a short time. I don't know that these two people are relatively normal. They were influential figures in the imperial city many years ago, or it can be said that they are
A notorious figure."
"The one named Yan Dalong is the elder brother, and the one named Yan Dahu is the younger brother. These two are two brothers. They were two people from the Imperial City before. But because they committed some things in the Imperial City, they were imprisoned.
They are wanted by the imperial court, and the reward for both of them combined is several thousand taels of silver!"
"Hiss!" The defender holding a long gun couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, with a very shocked expression on his face: "In other words, these two big men are both wanted criminals by the court? What if we
If we could capture them both, wouldn't it be..."
"F*ck! You're crazy!" The person next to him was startled, and quickly pulled him back, gritting his teeth and said: "Do you know what the two of them committed to deserve such a large reward?
The most famous thing they have ever done is the attempted assassination of the Imperial Master!"
"Damn you... can you take down these two extremely fierce people with just the two of us? Did your brains get eaten by a dog? Or kicked by a donkey? I think you've been beaten by thousands of people
I'm so dizzy with two silver coins, I need to calm down!"
The defenders holding spears were also frightened, and they attempted to assassinate the Imperial Master... Good guy, these two brothers have actually done such an appalling thing!
No wonder he was offered a reward of several thousand taels of silver.
If such a vicious criminal hadn't offered such a huge reward...
I'm afraid it's a bit unjustifiable.
"Then... what if we light the beacon quickly and call more people over? After all, no matter how powerful they are, they are just two people! If we have dozens, hundreds or even thousands of people,
Can these two big guys still be a match for thousands of our brothers? If that doesn't work, we can still call the monks over. With the help of the monks, can they still run away?"
The young defender holding a long gun was talking about some unrealistic ideas.
Then the back of his head was severely slapped by another defender next to him. The man next to him gritted his teeth and said: "You want to die, don't get me involved, I still want to live for a few more years."
!Anyway... I don’t want to die in the hands of these two brothers, Yan Dalong and Yan Dahu.”
"See, you are not only too young, but you are not even interested in hearing some rumors. It is said that in order to kill the two brothers Yan Dalong and Yan Dahu, the imperial court sent tens of thousands of troops to set up an ambush and surround these two people. As a result, this
Both of them were able to fight through their severely injured bodies."
When he said this, the man's face was also full of horror. He was full of disbelief, but he had to believe: "That was an early siege by tens of thousands of troops, and they killed them all."
Yes. There are thousands of us, but we are useless?"
"Have you ever thought about what if they remember the two of us after they kill them and want to cause trouble for us? I heard that these two brothers are very vicious. What if they not only want to
If he wants to cause trouble for the two of us, and even wants to cause trouble for our two families, what should we do?"
These words came out one after another, which made the young defender holding a spear stunned for a while, and also frightened the young defender.
When the young defender heard this, he felt a little numb, and suddenly became a little panicked: "Then...over there, what should we do? Just let them leave like this?"
"As a defender of the imperial city wall, it would be too frustrating to watch two wanted criminals leave in front of your eyes!"
"What? Did you see any criminals wanted by the court? Where are the criminals wanted by the court? Here? Or there? I didn't see it!" The defender next to him said he was confused and didn't see anything.
Very old-fashioned.
The young defender holding the spear was a little naive, but he was not a fool. He immediately understood: "Ahem! Ah... Boss, you are right, I was wrong. I actually... actually don't know anything."
did not see it."
Although the conversation between the two defenders sounded a little timid, there was nothing that could be done about it. They were just two ordinary defenders.
He has neither the ability to practice Taoism nor any big background.
When you encounter someone who cannot be provoked, you must avoid provoking him if you can, lest you accidentally get yourself involved and get into trouble.
When Fan Wu and others disappeared from their sight, they dared to rush to inform others.
Because they really didn't dare to go and inform people in front of Yan Dalong and Yan Dahu.
Then the defenders in this area immediately panicked, because no one expected that the two brothers Yan Dalong and Yan Dahu would actually come back. Weren't they already driven out of the imperial city many years ago?
Why do they dare to come back?
And during the period when they were driven out of the imperial city, why were the people in the court so useless that they didn't capture the two of them?
Fan Wu and others did not care what kind of commotion was caused at the top of the city wall.
Because after they continued walking for a period of time, they had arrived at the base of the city wall with the top of the 300-foot-high city wall. Of course, the base here was within the imperial city, not outside the imperial city.
In fact, it is only when you have not completely reached the foot of the city wall that you can see most of the bustling street scenes inside the Shangwu Dynasty Imperial City.
By the time we reached the foot of the city wall, we had already merged into the bustling street scene, and everything we could see was densely packed with human heads.
The prosperity of the imperial city of the Shangwu Dynasty has exceeded many people's imagination. Looking at it, even the beggars on the roadside are wearing very good clothes and they don't look like beggars at all.
If it weren't for the broken bowl placed in front of them, it would be impossible to tell that they were beggars.
But he was dressed like this, and he was considered a good beggar. When a group of people saw him, he shook his head and called them pitiful, and then put a lot of copper plates on their broken bowls.
This scene made Yun Jiuqing stunned. In her eyes, those beggars on the road in the Zhou Dynasty were at best poor people whose families had little money and whose clothes needed to be mended all year round.
But in the Shang and Wu dynasties, such poor people became beggars, and some people really sympathized with such beggars who could be well fed and clothed at first sight.
Ah, this...are all the people in the Shangwu Dynasty so rich?
Yun Jiuqing felt very incredible.
If this is the case, wouldn't any small aristocratic family group in the Shangwu Dynasty be equivalent to the top aristocratic family in the Great Zhou Dynasty?
Yun Jiuqing didn't know whether his guess and conversion were accurate. If it was accurate... my dear, that was simply outrageous!
No wonder the owner of Huo's Haihang, who brought them from the Great Yan Dynasty, wanted to settle in the Shangwu Dynasty.
Dare the EQ Dynasty to surpass the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Great Yan Dynasty, it is really not just a tiny bit, it is really a tenfold or a hundredfold difference.
Just when Yun Jiuqing wanted to go to the street vendors to see what the Shangwu Dynasty's stall was selling, she suddenly noticed the passers-by nearby. When she saw them, she felt like she was seeing evil spirits.
Like a star, his face changed drastically with fright.
Then a series of panicked shouts rang out across the street.
"Yes...yes...it's the two brothers Yan Dalong and Yan Dahu. They are back after so many years!"
What first caused a huge commotion was someone suddenly shouting such a sentence.
When countless people cast their eyes on Fan Wu and a group of others, they were immediately attracted by the tall bodies of the two brothers Yan Dalong and Yan Dahu, and then they panicked.
Ordinary people on the street hurriedly scurried away, trying to run back to their homes.
The street vendors hurriedly packed up their stalls and ran further away without stopping.
Their speed made Yun Jiuqing stunned.
In less than a hundred breaths, the entire street except Fan Wu and others...
