The world of "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", Yangzhou City.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Yangzhou City was extremely prosperous. It was the intersection of the canal and the Yangtze River. Shipments from Japan, Ryukyu, and Southeast Asian countries, as well as important daily necessities, salt, were transported on ships here and sent to various parts of the Sui Empire.
Although the world is in chaos, at least Yangzhou City is still peaceful, prosperous and busy at this moment.
Cheng Peng walked around Yangzhou City. Looking at this city that was far more dynamic than Luoyang City in the Three Kingdoms era, he felt that everything was fresh.
When he was a student, he studied history, and he always dreamed of going back to ancient times, to see with his own eyes what the ancient times were like, and to see if it could match the picture he had conceived in his mind.
Luoyang in the world of "Three Kingdoms Warriors" and Yangzhou in the world of "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" are two completely different cities. They are also famous cities that have been passed down through the ages, and they are also the goals he has always longed for.
"It's not bad to play games. I actually have the opportunity to see Luoyang in the Han Dynasty and Yangzhou in the Sui and Tang Dynasties..." He found a small shop on the roadside and sat down. He ordered a bowl of fried noodles and oil tea cooked with sesame oil, and then another.
Long steamed buns, enjoy the street view while eating happily.
The design of the game system is still very user-friendly. When he arrived in the world of "Tang Dynasty Warriors" from the world of "Dynasty Warriors", the Han Dynasty coins he originally carried were automatically exchanged for Sui Dynasty coins. There was not much money.
, just some scattered silver coins and a few strings of copper coins, but he was not originally a person who pursued luxury. As long as he had enough to eat and drink, and a place to sleep, the money was enough for him to use for a while.
"But... we still have to find a way to make some money."
The average force in the world of "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" is much higher than that of the world of "Three Kingdoms Warriors". After entering from the resurrection point of the Martial Temple, he has seen at least five or six people with strong bodies and sculpture-like muscles under their thin clothes.
Han, and judging from the reactions of street residents, such people are commonplace.
"Those people are estimated to have close to one-star strength, but they can only be regarded as minions. I wonder what level two-star is in this world? Is it the level of ordinary Jianghu people? Or is it slightly higher?
?" He stared at the crowds coming and going in the nearby Nanmen Market, and from time to time evaluated the strength of the rangers wearing swords. His hands were not idle, and the buns were put into his mouth one after another.
After a while, the basket of steamed buns was completely eaten.
Touching his belly, he felt that instead of being full, the steamed buns only made him hungry.
"Yangzhou's food is famous all over the world... I bet these buns are definitely not the Sui Dynasty style... they are clearly the famous Fuchun buns! - Boss, come to Sanlong again!"
Before the buns were delivered, he saw two young men who were not only sallow and skinny, but also had their noses and faces bruised and swollen from being beaten, walking over cautiously, as if they were wary of something.
The slightly taller one approached the bun stall and seemed to want to buy a few buns, but he searched for a long time in his arms and failed to find a single copper coin. A helpless smile appeared on his face that was bruised and bruised.
"Eight vegetable and meat buns, hello, Sister-in-law Zhen!"
If you look carefully, you can see that this young man is actually quite handsome. If not for his ragged clothes and being beaten until he almost turned into a pig's head, he seems to be a handsome guy. However, he seems to have a stomachache and can't even straighten his waist, so he can only stoop.
Speaking, he doesn't look handsome at all, just ridiculous and pitiful.
The woman selling buns was extremely beautiful, and she was no less beautiful than movie stars. This beautiful woman seemed to be very familiar with the boy. Seeing his embarrassed appearance, she shook her head pitifully and sighed: "Why are you being beaten again?"
With things like this...it's just money, a few buns are nothing."
As she spoke, she skillfully picked up a few buns, wrapped them in oil paper, and handed them to the boy.
Naturally, the young man thanked him profusely, but among the diners around him, someone said in a strange way: "Hey, maybe Baozi Xishi has taken a liking to this pretty boy? But be careful, he will even steal your money~"
Everyone burst into laughter for a moment, and the woman's pretty face turned red with anger, but she couldn't answer it--when a woman from a good family encounters such a thing, she will suffer nothing but losses.
The young man was so angry that he stood up straight and glared at the mean-mouthed diners.
Only then did Cheng Peng realize that he was quite tall, but too skinny and looked a bit like a bamboo pole.
But how could the diners pay for a poor little beggar? Everyone was still laughing.
The young man was trembling all over, his eyes were rounded, and his fists were clenched tightly, and he was about to have an attack. If a fight broke out, with his thin body, he would obviously only receive another punch.
Seeing the miserable appearance of the young man and the ugly faces of the diners around him, Cheng Peng frowned, pulled out his five-hook gun, and stacked it on the ground.
There was a crisp sound. The green bricks under the feet could not withstand the impact and cracked like tofu. They had been soaked with blood in previous battles and turned into dark red gun barrels. They actually sank half a foot into the ground!
"I advise you not to deceive young people into being poor, and keep your mouth clean!" He looked at the startled diners and said with a cold face, "God has given people thirty-six teeth, but only one tongue.
Everyone, please eat more, talk less, and especially don’t mess around! Talk!”
He is a hero who has come out of the battlefield, and his own strength is quite high. This anger suddenly gave rise to an evil spirit, forcing all the diners to dare not say anything.
"Although the scenery of Yangzhou City is beautiful, the scenery of this man is really disgusting." Seeing that the diners were timid, Cheng Peng lost his temper and put the uneaten buns into the inventory and took out a dozen
After paying the bill with copper coins, he pulled out his five-hook gun and left the bun shop.
Just as they walked around the corner, there was a sudden shout from behind. The tall and thin boy and another boy who was a little shorter but a little stronger caught up with them and thanked them repeatedly.
"It's a small effort, nothing worth mentioning." Cheng Peng said with a smile, "In life, everyone will be in trouble. Today I will help you, and maybe others will also help me in the future. The word '人' is just a misspelling."
We can only stand by supporting each other, so what's there to be thankful for?"
Since entering this two-star world, he has discovered several NPCs with high intelligence levels, especially these two teenagers. Looking at their expressions and movements, they are exactly the same as real people!
[It should be a more important plot NPC...but who could it be?]
"This eldest brother is really generous!" The short boy was obviously an acquaintance, and he quickly got close to him with just a few words, "Little brother Kou Zhong, this is my good friend Xu Ziling, the two of us are in Yangzhou City.
He is considered a local snake, this big brother - what do you call him?"
"Cheng Peng, I came from Luoyang and planned to live in a prosperous place famous all over the world for a while." Cheng Peng replied with a smile, but his heart was filled with ups and downs.
Kou Zhong! Xu Ziling!
Aren't these the two protagonists of "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty"!
Unexpectedly, I would meet the protagonists of the story as soon as I entered this world, and I would meet them when they were not yet prosperous and were down and out... There is no doubt that because of the role I took for Xu Ziling just now, I have initially gained the respect of these two protagonists.
Such a good feeling...it's really pie in the sky!
It's just...according to the plot, these two people should have obtained the secret book "Secret of Immortality"... Now it seems that it doesn't look like it... His thoughts were racing in his mind, but he was not rude in his words. After a few polite words, he asked
Where to find cheap hotels.
"To be honest, Mr. Cheng has limited money, and the food and drinks in this world are more expensive than I expected. So I originally wanted to find a cheap and good-quality hotel, but now I can only find a cheap, high-quality hotel.
It’s okay not to mention it.” He smiled calmly and was not ashamed of poverty at all, “The two little brothers must be very familiar with Yangzhou City, but do you know which hotel is the cheapest?”
"If you just want to be cheap, where can you stay in a hotel?" Kou Zhong answered before Xu Ziling, "The place where we brothers live is quite spacious. If we tidy it up carefully, we can make another room. The eldest brother only needs to prepare a
Just put on the bedding and you can stay there for as long as you want!”
Cheng Peng was slightly startled. He didn't expect that things would go so smoothly. Without being pretentious, he agreed. Then, under the leadership of two local gangsters, he went to an old shop and bought bedding - three sets in total.
With their shabby appearance, these two boys obviously couldn't afford bedding. Since they still had some money on hand, they might as well do all the favors.
A few hours later, a relatively spacious and clean room was built in the dilapidated garden where Kou and Xu lived in the east of Yangzhou City. Even if Cheng Peng settled here, he finally had a place to stay.
To celebrate settling in, he went to buy wine and food, and the three of them ate and drank in the overgrown yard.
During the chat, Kou Zhong asked Cheng Peng eagerly if he knew martial arts. After learning that he knew some military formation tricks, he proposed to learn from his master.
How could Cheng Peng let the future Shuanglong of the Tang Dynasty be buried with a half-baked "master" like himself? He immediately proposed that it was okay to teach Kung Fu, but there was no need to become a master.
"In military formation martial arts, there has never been such a thing as "teacher-to-teacher". Brother Yu had never been a teacher back then, so how could he possibly accept a disciple?" He said with a smile to the two young men who were already a bit drunk, "
As long as the two brothers appreciate my skill in fighting on the battlefield, Brother Yu will definitely give me everything he has to teach me!"
Cheng Peng kept his word, and from the next day he taught Kou and Xu the extremely simple basic marksmanship skills from "Dynasty Warriors" one by one.
I have to admit that the protagonist's learning ability is amazing! In just three days, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling learned all the basic marksmanship skills that took Cheng Peng more than half a month to master. They originally knew nothing about martial arts. At this time, they took action.
There are already some rules and regulations.
However, their martial arts skills are also different. Xu Ziling is calm by nature and pays attention to the accuracy of his shots. He never uses up his spear style and always retains three points of strength. Kou Zhong has a fierce and courageous spirit in his bones. He never returns his spear and is full of momentum.
, there is a faint aura of fierce battle on the battlefield.
In the past few days, Yan Kuan, the gangster leader who was originally in charge of the two thieves Kou and Xu, also came here. However, this idiot just got a look from Cheng Peng and ran away in despair... without even a harsh word.
Dare to put it down.
"Brother Cheng, Boss Yan is a ruthless character, why can you scare him away with just one look?" Xu Ziling asked curiously.
"There are two kinds of cruelty, one is cruelty to others, and the other is cruelty to oneself. Compared with the latter, the former is just an empty shell." Cheng Peng looked at Yan Kuan running for his life and said with a sneer.
, "Look at those guys who are as ferocious as wolves and tigers when they are in power, they are just wimps at heart. To deal with such a thing, as long as you are more ruthless than him, he will not be able to show off his power in front of you!"
He didn't know that because of these words, the entire history of Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty had a slight deviation.
