At the end of the road, the city is faintly visible.
The criss-crossing waterways are integrated with the classical Chinese-style buildings.
Jingpu City was originally built in this lake.
There is some surprise. It is obviously a city, but there is no city wall or city gate. Could it be that this endless lake is a natural chasm? Obviously not.
When Liu Xiao saw a building with some Huizhou style moving in the waterway, he already knew the answer.
These buildings, courtyards and houses are actually boats. There is no land here, only boat spaces.
"Mr. Liu, the ladies, Mr. Yu, and Pu Pu have arrived."
The coachman, who had not spoken for a long time, said excitedly.
Only when we arrived at Jingpu Yi did we truly escape the war and enter a relatively safe area.
"Brother Liu, do you know the origin of this river?"
Yu Wenyi didn't want to show off. Liu Xiao listened to their chat and discovered that it was already a habit to start a new topic with questions like this.
"I don't know, can you tell me?"
Liu Xiao had a good impression of Yu Wenyi. This weak chess player was not boastful and sincere to others. Even among the four beauties of the Pang family, he did not deliberately show off or flatter himself.
Or clinging to him, these two points are very good, indicating that he is still an upright person.
"溺" refers to the gurgling sea, and "pu" refers to the foundation of this city, Pukou Lotus. Under this city, there is an Ortoic Xuanshui, which continuously rises outward. This vast gurgling sea is formed by
It was born on Xuanshui. At that time, huge waves were rolling over the sky here, and it was my lord Kunlun who planted a strange lotus on Xuanshui. From then on, there were no waves and no storms."
"This strange lotus is called Yuanzhi. Its lotus seeds are the essence of Xuanshui. Its lotus roots are the marrow of spiritual roots. Its flowers and leaves are also great tonic. Fish and beasts in the gurgling sea gather here every flowering season.
This, and this lotus leaf, became as solid and stable as solid soil, and from then on, there was this city on the sea."
"This is the origin of Jingpu Town."
Following Yu Wenyi's eloquent talk, the carriage also approached Shuicheng.
This road that crosses the gurgling sea in the main film actually only passes through the edge of the city. To officially enter the city, you need to pass a pontoon bridge.
And this floating bridge attached to the water is not made of rocks or wood at all, but just a large piece of cut green leaves...
When the carriage climbed onto the pontoon bridge, there was a slight feeling of collapse, but the entire bridge was as stable as a mountain.
Liu Xiao was observing his surroundings curiously while thinking about what Yu Wenyi had just said.
Although he didn't understand some words, he probably understood the meaning.
There should be an extremely pure water source core under the Jiupu City. The entire gurgling sea water originated from this source core. Later, in order to suppress the source core, the master Kunlun planted a tree that screamed Yuanzhi.
Lotus flowers, and the lotus seeds and lotus roots produced by lotus flowers seem to be extremely rare things, and therefore attract fish and beasts from the gurgling sea.
No matter how it sounds, it sounds like a fairy tale fabricated to promote the development of the tourism and cultural industry, but this is Sloan, so there is no need for that, and it does make sense logically.
A lotus flower that can suppress the water of Ordovician is definitely not an ordinary thing.
The fruits and roots produced by this kind of thing must be at the level of treasures. It cannot be touched by just anyone. There must be no shortage of troops to protect it.
As the saying goes, people who rely on mountains and mountains rely on water to drink water. The large amount of seafood attracted by the lotus is naturally a big fortune. The population siphon also attracts the inflow of talents.
It makes sense to finally have such a water city.
Yu Wenyi explained the origin of "溺Hepu". In fact, it is just a literal meaning. On a deeper level, it has another meaning. "溺" should refer to the soothing water flow, which is the warm and waveless murmuring sea. "Pu" means the source of water.
The confluence is the water source core.
Liu Xiao suddenly felt that he was awesome. Not only did he understand the whole story, but he also knew how to dig deeper.
However, the question that concerned him also came up.
These lotus seeds and lotus roots, including the lotus leaves, seem to be edible!
In other words, the green floating leaves under the carriage may be a great source of nourishment!
There were a lot of people around, so Liu Xiao temporarily suppressed the urge to jump out of the car and take a bite.
When the carriage crosses the "pontoon bridge", it is considered that it has truly entered the city.
It also made Liu Xiao understand what it means to have a city with one leaf. What supports rows of buildings and streets is not a solid layer of soil, but an extremely huge lotus leaf.
He couldn't wait to jump off the carriage and wanted to feel it with his feet.
The moment his toes touched the ground, the firm and hard touch immediately came back to him. Even if he stepped down hard, there was no dip at all.
"Brother Liu, what are you doing?"
Yu Wenyi walked out of the carriage, stretched his muscles vigorously, and asked with a smile when he saw Liu Xiao trampling on the ground.
"Is this the lotus leaf of Yuanzhilian?"
Liu Xiao pointed at his feet and asked.
Yu Wenyi nodded and jumped off the carriage. It was obvious that he had been sitting in the carriage for too long. When he landed, his feet were weak. He twisted a little and managed to stand still.
"Brother Yu, I suggest you do some exercise."
Liu Xiao made a suggestion from the bottom of his heart.
"It doesn't matter," Yu Wenyi rubbed her ankles and waved her hands, "I flew too high before and I was a little dizzy."
The four young ladies of the Pang family also got off the carriage one after another. The bumpy journey made each of them feel somewhat grateful to have escaped danger.
Speaking of which, the psychological quality of these four beauties is really strong. A total of forty carriages came out of the Pang family this time, and there must be at least eighty blood relatives. It is estimated that not many people can safely escape the pursuit of Chengtian Army recently.
There may even be no one at all. Whether they are alive or dead is unknown at the moment, but being in danger is inevitable.
But the four of them didn't seem to have much worry.
Perhaps because the family is too large, the relationship between some distant relatives is actually not very close.
"Master Liu, let's walk."
Pang Buzuo was also tired from sitting, straightened his clothes, and said softly.
"Is it far?"
"There are thirty-six leaves in total. The one under our feet is one of them. It is eight leaves away from the Pang family's house here, which is quite a distance."
Bu Zhuo replied.
"Okay, let's go."
Liu Xiao was not in a hurry and just took a closer look at the terrain along the road to see if there was a chance to try it first.
Five women and two men, followed by a carriage, walked slowly along the periphery of the lotus leaves.
There were not many pedestrians on the road, but quite a few people gathered together and talked about something.
Liu Xiao listened carefully, and they were all talking about the war between Tianyong and Chengtian. He could feel that the people living here were still very anxious about this, and they were also very conflicted in their hearts, because they seemed to be dissatisfied with Chengtian.
His senses are not bad, and he can even find reasons and excuses for Jiang Ci's rebellion.
At least, speech is quite free.
It can be seen that the lotus leaf is curved, and the overall shape should be a circle or ellipse. The planning of the buildings and streets above is also very distinctive. The main street is the edge of the leaf. The buildings along the street are mainly shops, and there are some
An alley just big enough for a carriage to enter can lead to the interior of the building complex, which should be people's residences.
Finally, after bypassing a fishing tackle shop, the view broadened.
You can also see the other end of the water, a few kilometers away, a group of buildings that seem to be attached to the water.
Good guy, one leaf of this lotus is almost equivalent to the area of the entire War Spirit Academy.
All I can say is, it's big enough.
In the sea, five or six teenagers were flying past. At first glance, one thought they were surfing, but in fact they were standing on the backs of some kind of fish and beast. They were naked from the waist up and carrying a bamboo basket on their backs.
Full of fish of all sizes.
Along the way, I didn't see a fishing spot, but from time to time I could see someone carrying a big, fresh fish from the beach back to the shop. This made Liu Xiao a little confused. He thought these people were very good at water.
, they all jumped down and grabbed them directly.
It wasn't until he witnessed the whole process with his own eyes that he knew the truth.
I saw a middle-aged woman walking to the beach and patting the water gently with her hands. After a while, a fish popped its head out. She grabbed it, lifted it into the air and took it away.
Liu Xiao looked confused.
Are these fish in the gurgling sea so stupid?
To verify, he also came to the edge of the lotus leaf, squatted down, and imitated the woman slapping the water.
There really are fish! And more than one!
I went, and Liu Xiao felt that his three views had been refreshed again.
He immediately asked Yu Wenyi, who was waiting for him, why these fish came up so easily.
As a result, Yu Wenyi didn't know. Obviously, this guy is an otaku and doesn't have enough social experience.
Fortunately, Ruhua knew that this kind of fish, commonly known as Daibao, likes to eat the leftovers that people pour into the water. Over time, it develops a habit. If there are people on the shore and there is movement on the water, they will float up to see if there is anything to eat.
, because he is very silly and is loved by the locals, so he got this name that has both praise and blame.
In Jingpu City, every household cooks a dish called Steamed Silly, and the main ingredient is this kind of fish.
Liu Xiao smiled and nodded, indeed, it was quite silly.
