"The steam is steaming over the Yunmengze, and the waves are shaking Yueyang City."
Liu Xing frowned and said: "Then the question is, this Yueshan City should not be a second-hand city, so this cannot be Yueyang City!"
"Yeah, I used to think that it would be difficult to set this kind of poems with names of people or places as ancient relics, because the starting conditions for this kind of poems are still a bit too difficult. They must be in a designated place or place.
The designated person must be within a certain range to use this ancient artifact normally."
Shi Zixuan shook his head and said: "If we insist on explaining it, then Yunmengze refers to a certain area at the beginning, but now Yunmengze can also refer to various larger lakes, so we can think that
The lake near Yueshan City is Yunmengze; as for Yueyang City, maybe hundreds or even thousands of years ago, a city named Yueyang City once appeared on this land where we are! After all,
In ancient times when productivity was still seriously insufficient, cities not only had obvious limitations in terms of scale, because such a piece of land certainly could not support so many people who were not engaged in production, but also the supplies transported from surrounding cities were relatively limited.
"
"The same is true for the location of the city, because if you want to build a city somewhere that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, you must first ensure that there is a relatively flat land here, and the geology should not be too soft to prevent the upper
The buildings will settle; in addition, there must be enough groundwater nearby, because the city water supply in ancient times relied on well water, but this is still a small matter in this martial arts module, after all
Perhaps one-third of the Xinlong Empire is water! So after solving the problem of water, we have to solve the problem of food, because people must eat."
"In ancient times, there must have been many villages and towns near a city, because the city needed these villages and towns to provide a variety of food, vegetables and fruits. After all, the available arable land in the city was almost zero, and it was possible to grow some onions and the like.
That's good; in addition, there is another very important requirement for the location of ancient cities, that is, after the city is built, it will either become a trade node, or it can become a fortress guarding an important road.
, or a production base like Philadelphia City. In short, this city is definitely not just a place of residence."
Having said this, Shi Zixuan paused for a moment before pointing at Yueshan City and said: "Although Yueshan City was built to please the Moon God, so the site selection only needs to meet one condition, that is, it can obtain the Moon God.
A place that I agree with! But when we passed by Luwei Village before, I found a nearby map to study it. I wanted to know where the Luwei Village could be moved. It turned out that the location of Yueshan City was
It's pretty good. First of all, the water source must be sufficient, and secondly, there is a lot of land that can be cultivated around it, so the carrying capacity of this land should be about 20,000 people, and the current Yueshan City may only have 10,000 people, right?
"
"Moreover, the geographical location of Yueshan City is quite good. It is located at the center of several cities. It is a good transfer station. It can definitely shine when Kowloon wins the throne. As long as the third prince is willing to send people to defend Yueshan City.
; Unfortunately, Yueshan City is unlikely to become a battlefield, but this also means that in the area where Yueshan City is located, there may have been a city that served as a defense node many years ago, right? It was just because of the destruction of the former dynasty.
This city was also burned to the ground and became an unknown piece of history... But more importantly, this place may really be comparable to Yueyang City in the real world!"
As soon as Shi Zixuan said this, Liu Xing suddenly remembered that the map of the martial arts module was almost exactly the same as the map in the real world, except that some waterways and lakes appeared out of thin air.
So this Yueshan City and Yueyang City in the real world should roughly correspond, right? In other words, they are no more than a hundred miles apart?
If this is the case, then this makes sense.
"The level of August Lake is too clear."
Liu Xing closed his eyes and recited a poem: "It happens to be August now, right? And there are no clouds in the sky, so this poem can be regarded as corresponding, right? As for the second poem, it is what we have seen so far, Yueshan City
Shrouded by the mist rising from the lake; and then there is no boat to help, and the shameful sage is clear. The meaning of this poem is that I feel ashamed of doing nothing, but there is no way to go further, so this poem
It should correspond to a certain person, and this person is probably Yueshen, because Yueshen's current situation is quite consistent with this poem. After all, he doesn't want to be trapped in Yueshen City as a mascot."
"Sitting and watching the anglers only envy the fish."
Dong Qing shook his head and said: "According to the alliance leader's thinking, this last line of the poem still corresponds to Yueshen. Because Yueshan City is a tourist city, Yueshen should have come into contact with many outsiders in normal times, so Yueshen also listened to them.
Having mentioned things outside and the various little stories his master told him, I think Yueshen would be envious of these people, right?"
"Ah? Does this all fit in?"
Xu Bin on the side said in surprise: "I originally thought that Qi Steam Yun Mengze was far-fetched, but I didn't expect that except Yueyang City, which still needs to be considered, it can be matched in other aspects, and this month is deep.
He is also the most important NPC in Yueshan City, so it is normal that the antiquities are related to him, but I still don’t understand what’s going on with that giant sword?”
"Do you want a gravitational acceleration?"
Liu Xing touched his chin and said: "Perhaps this ancient object is hidden somewhere, and a layer of iron shell needs to be broken to release this ancient object, so the Yue family tried other methods but could not open the iron shell.
So we simply came up with the idea of throwing objects from high altitude? After all, everyone knows that when defending a city, if you throw rocks below, they will hit you without making a sound! What’s more, a giant sword can also be used to break armor or shields."
"That should be it."
Master Zixuan nodded and said: "It seems that we really have a chance to take Yueshen out of Yueshan City, because since Yueshen can trigger this ancient artifact, it means that he really wants to leave Yueshan City, but he feels helpless.
, after all, he is the future head of the Yue family, running around now is not a problem."
"This is called envy for nothing."
When Liu Xing was about to say something more, he saw the fog in Yueshan City suddenly disappear, and then several fireworks exploded in the sky above Yueshan City.
This marks the beginning of the moonlit night celebrations!
Is it dark?
Unconsciously, Liu Xing realized that the sky had already turned dark without even realizing it.
It seemed that the attention of his group was attracted by the giant sword and the sudden mist, so they didn't even know when the sun was setting.
It's dark under the light.
"Walk?"
Master Zixuan stretched and said, "Since Yueshan City is open for business, we should go in and take a look around. So, Alliance Leader, have you arranged who will guard the camp?"
"I come!"
Before Liu Xing could speak, Dong Qing raised his hand and said: "Qing Sheng and I have already agreed that we will bring a few people to guard the motorcade today, because Qing Sheng has no interest in the moon night celebration at all. After all,
As a young Taoist priest, he cannot believe in the moon god, so he has no idea of entering Yueshan City! And I am now friends with Qing Sheng, so I have to accompany Qing Sheng to stay in the camp and chat, of course.
I'm not too interested in the so-called Moon God's blessing. After all, as players, we have a higher chance of getting the Moon God's blessing, but in the end only a few people can get this blessing, so my chance of winning is only
Less than one percent.”
"More importantly, the Moon God's blessing seems to be quite limited. It can either make people recover from long-term illnesses, regenerate broken limbs, or improve a person's abilities in certain aspects. In short, the Moon God's blessing is just that.
Well, for us players with sound limbs, it’s not a big deal. At most, it can only increase some values, so I won’t compete with you for blessings; but if any of you wins, treat me to a meal later.
Well, I heard that the charcoal-roasted piglets in Yueshan City are quite delicious, but they are quite expensive."
Since Dong Qing said so, Liu Xing naturally agreed to the matter, "Okay, I will take people to buy you a roast suckling pig, and then buy you some other dishes to go with the wine, let Dong
You and Qing Sheng have a good meal and drink! But you still have to pay attention to the situation in the camp. After all, this camp is a mixed bag of dragons and snakes. There may be some gentlemen who want to come to our place to make some money, so you just go ahead and do it.
Well, the security guards in the camp will come over and help if they hear the noise."
After arranging the candidates to guard the convoy, Liu Xing and others entered Yueshan City. What surprised Liu Xing was that Miao Fei, who had originally agreed to participate in the Moon Night celebration, suddenly changed his mind because he wanted to be with him.
My old friend Wu Ji reminisced about old times.
As for why Wu Ji didn't want to participate in the Moon Night Celebration, the main reason was that he already believed in the Water God, so it was difficult for him to accept the Moon God's blessing now. After all, Wu Ji was a dock owner, so he couldn't live without worshiping the Water God.
Yes, this time the martial arts module still has the God of Water, but the God of Water has not shown any miracles so far. Or it can be said that the lack of floods in the New Dragon Empire in recent years is due to the God of Water.
Therefore, whether it is the new Dragon Emperor or the dock owner who relies on the water to make a living, he will light three incense sticks for the Moon God at the beginning and end of each month.
So Wu Ji felt that he was already a member of the Water God, so it was a bit unreasonable to attend the Moon Night Celebration now. After all, most gods have a strong "jealousy" and would not allow someone to be half-hearted about him!
Therefore, more than ten years ago, a person first received the blessing of the moon god during the moon night celebration, and then was suddenly struck by lightning. The city lord of Yueshan City said that this person was multitasking and had taken refuge with other gods.
He dared to seek the blessings of the Moon God, so he received blessings and was punished by the Moon God at the same time!
Of course, if you don't receive the blessing of the moon god, then you will be fine even if you step on a hundred ships.
Therefore, after confirming that Miao Fei would stay and guard the convoy, Liu Xing led people into Yueshan City with more confidence, and then everyone started to act separately after entering the city. For example, Liu Xing acted with Xu Bin and Schiller, and
Yang De, who originally wanted to go for a walk, was sent by Liu Xing to buy roast suckling pig.
"This Yueshan City is similar to the ancient town I have been to before."
Xu Bin said with a smile: "I also like traveling in the real world, especially after entering the Cthulhu Run game lobby. I go to a new city every week because I am afraid that I will be in a new city."
If I stay in this place for a long time, if I make any friends, they will be involved in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, so it’s better for me to wander around the world.”
Just as Liu Xing was about to answer a question, he saw Yue Shao coming over. However, at this time, Yue Shao also brought a few people whom Liu Xing didn't know. It seemed that they were all local NPCs in Yueshan City, so Yue Shao at this moment
Shao has entered work mode?
So why don't you pretend you don't know me?
Just when Liu Xing was about to pass by Yue Shao, Yue Shao reached out and stopped Liu Xing.
"This friend, you look familiar? Have we met in Feihu City?"
Yue Shao turned around and said to his men: "You can continue patrolling. I will come find you after chatting with this friend for a while."
Several of Yue Shao's men nodded and continued patrolling.
After there were no outsiders around, Yue Shao continued: "What just happened was related to Yueshen, because the Moon God suddenly passed down an oracle, saying that there was something bound to Yueshen in a certain well.
Treasure, but ordinary means could not break through the bottom of the well, so someone thought of the magical operation of the giant sword falling from the sky, and it turned out to be really useful! As for the thing taken out from the bottom of the well, it looked pretty good
His sword, and Yueshen also happens to use a sword."
Sword?
Liu Xing nodded, having determined that the sword was an ancient relic and that the ancient poem on it was "A Presentation to Prime Minister Zhang at Dongting Lake".
There is a saying that this poem and the sword are quite compatible. After all, there is a saying that the sword is given to the hero, so it can be considered as similar to this poem.
Moreover, the "Prime Minister Zhang" mentioned in the title of this poem is most likely Zhang Jiuling. Of course, some people say it is Zhang Shuo, because both of them served as prime ministers and governors of Jingzhou, and were also demoted from the capital. More importantly,
What's more, they all had the kindness to meet Meng Haoran, and they exchanged poems with Meng Haoran. Meng Haoran also explicitly called them "Prime Minister Zhang" or "Mr. Zhang" in some poems, so now they call this "Prime Minister Zhang"
