Beacon Tower
Early the next morning, Chen Yang was pulled out of the bed by Huang Yong and Li Hua.
The two were arranged by Gong Chao to take Chen Yang to the city.
I haven't drunk like this for a long time. When I first got up, my mind was confused. Chen Yang used his skills to recover.
At the beginning, Chen Yang was indifferent. If he hadn't waited for Liu Wei and the bearded man, Chen Yang wanted to rush back to the sect to watch the game.
Until, the gate of the mercenary group came out...
"Chen Yang, look, this Panlong City is very different from other places, right?"
As soon as you go out of the gate, you will see the golden streets.
When I entered the city, the genius was a little brighter and I couldn't see the scene in the city clearly.
No matter how big or small the buildings, the walls and doors on the street are painted golden.
Moreover, buildings are mostly made of stone structures, unlike other places that are mostly made of wood.
"Panlong City? Is it the "Panlong" I can think of?" The point Chen Yang paid attention to was not the golden streets, but the name of the city.
If you buy elixirs and get the simple map, there is no mark on it. It seems that you have to spend time and spend money to buy a better one.
"Yes, it's the legendary one - you have to wrap it with me even if it's a dragon, that one." Li Hua replied with a smile.
"Then is the origin of the name of 'Panlong City'?" Generally, there are some legends or allusions for such unpopular names, Chen Yang asked specifically.
"Hi, there is no serious record, who knows how it came about?"
Li Hua paused for a moment, remembered something, and continued: "Among those people who have lived here for generations, there is such a legend that is treacherous."
"What legend? Come and listen to it quickly." Huang Yong has lived here for many years, but he has never heard of such a legend.
Li Hua was one of the few people in charge of intelligence collection in the group, so he naturally knew more about these gossip than Huang Yong.
"It is said that this place used to be a place with frequent droughts, and it was a kind of severe drought.
Sometimes I can’t wait for a little rain all year round.
There was almost no harvest in the crops in the field, and even drinking water became difficult..."
"Is it so exaggerated? I have been here for several years. I haven't seen it for a long time. It rains every now and then. The crops outside the city are watching every year
They all look good." Huang Yong interrupted.
"Hey, you've finished listening to it, it's no good for me to lie to you!"
"Okay, you say, you continue." Huang Yong signaled.
“At that time, people in this area could find other ways out, all moved out.
Later, the people who stayed were advised by the passers-by, saying that as long as an altar was built in this city, as long as everyone worshiped sincerely on the fifth day of the fifth month, there would be a turning point."
"Who are they worshiping?" Chen Yang asked.
The city now doesn’t look like a dry place. You don’t have to think about it. It must be a turning point among the high population.
"Longjun." Li Hua replied simply.
"Longjun?" What the hell? It made Chen Yang confused.
"Yes, who is the Dragon Lord? I have heard of the legend of the Dragon Clan, the legend of the Dragon King, who is this Dragon Lord?" Huang Yong also asked curiously.
"I didn't find out who Long Jun is either!" Li Hua said helplessly.
Li Hua also went around to inquire about this issue out of curiosity, but the indigenous people kept silent about this issue.
Li Hua continued: "I just vaguely learned from their words that a phantom of a true dragon appeared. It not only brought rain to this side, but also brought good harvests.
I have also observed that the land here is not fertile, but the harvest does not require the fertile land difference.
As for whether this legend is true, I don’t know. Anyway, some indigenous people still maintain the custom of sacrificial sacrifice on the second day of the second month.”
"Didn't you just talk about the fifth day of the fifth month?" Huang Yong felt that he should have heard it right.
"The first sacrifice was on the fifth day of the fifth month. Now the time for those people to sacrifice is indeed the second day of the second month of each year."
Looking at Huang Yong's puzzled look, Li Hua continued: "Don't ask me why, I don't know either.
Look, the tall beacon tower-like building in front is the original altar.”
Chen Yang looked in the direction Li Hua pointed at, and there was indeed a building built with large stones.
Huang Yong also knew about that building. Not only did he know it, but he was also very familiar with it. "Isn't this the beacon tower?
Last time the city lord's enemy led people to attack the city, I saw the people from the city lord's mansion let the wolf smoke go here!"
Li Hua shrugged and spread his hands out, saying, "That's what the aborigines told me, and I can't verify the authenticity. Just listen to it as a story, why take it so seriously?"
"Then where are they sacrificing now? Have you ever seen it?" Chen Yang asked Li Hua.
"I have never seen it before, but there is a wealthy indigenous people. The servants of his family said that that night, they saw the master and his family secretly leaving in the middle of the night with sacrifices, and did not come back until dawn the next morning."
"That doesn't mean anything! Maybe they just go out to worship their deceased ancestors?" Li Hua retorted.
"This really doesn't mean anything, but I've also gone to the city to inquire about the news.
During that time, there were thieves in the city. The guards and patrols at night were very strict, and the patrolers had never seen that family."
"What's so strange about this? Maybe it's just staggered with those people?" Huang Yong felt that Li Hua's evidence was very far-fetched.
"Haha, I say it's something that is really a divine thing, you told me..."
"Yes, yes, yes, I have to say it. Then where are we going now?" Huang Yong had already dispelled his curiosity about this and asked the two of them.
"Can you go up that altar? Go there and take a look." Chen Yang has seen many altars. This is the first time he has seen this shape. I want to see what's special.
"No! Chen Yang, do you really believe what he brags about?"
"What did I brag?" Li Hua stopped following Huang Yong's words.
"I have never seen such an altar, I just want to go and see it." Chen Yang said.
"I'm too lazy to see you!" Li Hua gave Huang Yong a blank look.
"Chen Yang, let's go, I'll take you up and have a look." Li Hua pulled Chen Yang and left first.
"Hey~! You guys can't question a few words! Hello, wait for me..."
Huang Yong complained and chased after the two people in front.
The altar is located at a large three-way intersection in the city, with relatively prosperous streets around it.
They are all stores that look good, and the traffic is not small.
The streets around the altar are extremely wide, like a small square.
When he approached the altar, Chen Yang discovered that this rectangular building was larger than he thought.
