Chapter 725 Jingpu
At the end of the road, the city is vaguely visible.
The crisscrossing waterways merge with the classical Chinese-style building complex,
Chanpu City was originally built in this lake.
Somewhat unexpectedly, it was clearly a city, but there were no city walls or gates. Could it be that this endless lake was a natural barrier? Obviously not.
When Liu Xiao saw a Hui-style building moving in the waterway, he already knew the answer.
These buildings, courtyards, houses and houses are actually boats. There is no land here, only boat seats.
"Mr. Liu, several ladies, Mr. Yu, Chanpu is here."
The coachman who had not spoken for a long time said excitedly.
Only when you arrive in Chanpuyi, you truly escape from the war and enter a relatively safe area.
"Brother Liu, can you tell the origin of this Chanpu?"
Yu Wenyi didn't want to show off anything. Liu Xiao also discovered that he listened to their chats. Using questions like this as the beginning of a new topic is already a habit of talking.
"I don't know, you'll tell me?"
Liu Xiao had a good impression of Yu Wenyi. This chess player with no power is not exaggerated, and is also more sincere to others. Even among the four beauties of the Pang family, he did not deliberately show off anything, nor did he blindly flatter or cling to himself. These two points are very good, which shows that he is quite right.
"Cang refers to this gurgling sea, and Pu, which is the foundation of this city. Pukou lotus, under this city, there is an Ordovician Xuan Water, which continuously rises outward. This vast gurgling sea is born from the mysterious water. At that time, huge waves were surging here, and it was my master Kunlun who planted a strange lotus on the mysterious water. From then on, the water waves did not rise, and there was no wind or waves."
"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 even more of a great replenishment. Its fish and beasts gather here every time it is flowering. The lotus leaves are as solid as solid and stable as solid soil. After that, there will be this city on the sea."
"This is the origin of Chanpuyi."
As Yu Wenyi told the story, the carriage also approached the Shuicheng.
This road across the main sea actually only passes through the edge of the city. To officially enter the city, you also need to pass a pontoon bridge.
And this floating bridge attached to the water is not made of rock or wood at all, but just a large piece of cut green leaves...
The carriage got on the floating bridge and felt a soft and soft collapse, but the entire bridge was as stable as Mount Tai.
Liu Xiao observed the surroundings curiously while thinking about what Yu Wenyi had just said.
Although he didn't understand some words, the general meaning was almost the same.
There should be a very high purity water source core under the city of Chanpu. This entire sea water of the Chanpu Sea rose because of this source core. Later, in order to suppress the source core, the owner Kunlun planted a lotus that was singing. The lotus seeds and lotus roots produced by the lotus seem to be extremely rare, which also attracted fish and beasts in the Chanpu Sea.
No matter how you hear it, it is like a myth made up to promote the development of the tourism and cultural industry, but this is Shilong, there is no need, and it makes sense logically.
The lotus that can suppress Ordovician water is definitely not an ordinary product.
The fruits and rhizomes produced by this kind of thing must be at the level of treasure. You can't just touch and touch them at any time. The army that protects it must not be missing.
As the saying goes, relying on the mountains and rivers to eat water, the large amount of seafood attracted by lotus is naturally a considerable wealth, and the population siphon has attracted the influx of talents.
In the end, it is reasonable to have such a water city.
Yu Wenyi explained the origin of Chan and Pu. In fact, it is just literally, a deeper layer, and another meaning. Chan should refer to the soothing water flow, which refers to the warm and waveless gurglades. Pu is the confluence of water sources, that is, the water source core.
Liu Xiao suddenly felt that he was awesome. He not only understood the whole story, but also knew how to dig deeper.
However, the questions he was concerned about came.
This lotus seed, this lotus root, and lotus leaves seem to be edible!
In other words, the green floating leaves under the carriage may be a great supplement!
There were a lot of people around him, and Liu Xiao temporarily suppressed the urge to jump out of the car and take a bite.
After the carriage crossed the "floor bridge", he was truly entering the city.
It also allowed Liu Xiao to appreciate what a leaf and a city is, supporting rows of buildings, and the streets and alleys are not solid soil layers, but an extremely huge lotus leaf.
He couldn't wait to jump out of the carriage, trying to actually feel it with his feet.
The moment his toes hit the ground, the strong and hard touch immediately came back. Even if he stepped down hard, there was no slight sag.
"Brother Liu, are you?"
Yu Wenyi walked out of the carriage and stretched his muscles hard. Seeing Liu Xiao trampling on the ground, he asked with a smile.
"Is this the lotus leaf of the lotus that comes from the lotus?"
Liu Xiao pointed at his feet and asked.
Yu Wenyi nodded and jumped out of the carriage. It was obvious that he had been riding in the car for too long. When he landed, he had lost strength and twisted for a while and barely stopped.
"Brother Yu, I suggest you exercise."
Liu Xiao made a suggestion from the bottom of his heart.
"It's okay," Yu Wenyi waved his hand while rubbing his ankles, "It's flying too high before, and it's a little dizzy."
The four ladies of the Pang family also got off the carriage one after another. The turmoil along the way made each of them feel somewhat lucky after escape.
Speaking of which, the psychological qualities of these four beauties are really strong. The Pang family has a total of forty carriages this time, and at least eighty blood relatives are there. There are probably not many who can escape the pursuit of Chengtian Army safely recently, and there may not even be none of them. Whether they are dead or alive is unknown, but it is inevitable to be in danger.
But the four of them didn't seem to be worried much.
Perhaps it is because the family is too large, and the relationship between some distant relatives is actually not very close.
"Young Master Liu, let's walk."
Pang Buzhuo was also tired of sitting, so he tidied up his clothes and said softly.
"Far away?"
"There are thirty-six leaves in total. At our feet, we are one of them. It is a bit far from the Pang family's house.
He replied without turbidity.
"Okay, let's go."
Liu Xiao was not in a hurry, and just watched the terrain carefully along the road to see if there was any chance to try it out first.
Five women and two men followed a carriage, and walked slowly along the outer periphery of the lotus leaves.
There were not many pedestrians on the road, but many people gathered together to talk about something.
After listening carefully, Liu Xiao was talking about the war between Tianyong and Chengtian. He could feel that the people living here were still very anxious about it and were also very conflicted in their hearts, because they seemed to have a good sense of Chengtian and even made excuses for Jiang Ci's rebellion.
At least, the speech is quite free.
It can be seen that the lotus leaves have curves and should be round or oval in general. The buildings and street planning above are also very distinctive. The main street is the edge of the leaves. The buildings along the street are mainly shops. Some alleys that have just reached a carriage to enter can enter the interior of the building complex, and it should be people's residences inside.
Finally, after passing by a fishing gear shop, my vision became wider.
You can also see a building complex that seems to be stuck to the water at the other end of the water surface a few kilometers away.
Good guy, this leaf that reaches the lotus is almost equivalent to the entire War Spirit Academy.
All I can say is, it's big enough.
In the sea, five or six teenagers rushed by. At first glance, they thought they were playing surfing, but in fact they were standing on the back of some kind of fish beast. They were naked and carrying a bamboo basket on their backs, and the basket was full of fish catches of all sizes.
Along the way, I didn't see a fishing place, but from time to time I could see someone walking back to the shop with a lively big fish. This made Liu Xiao a little confused. He thought that these people were very good at water and jumped down and caught them directly.
It was not 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 gently patting the water with her hands. After a while, a fish show appeared, and she grabbed it, directly raised it into the air, and took it away.
Liu Xiao was confused when he saw it.
Is this fish in the sea so stupid?
In order to verify, he also came to the edge of the lotus leaf, squatted down, imitating the woman slapped the water surface.
There are indeed fish! And more than one!
When I go, Liu Xiao feels that his views on his three views have been refreshed again.
I 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 has insufficient social experience.
Fortunately, Ruhua knew that this kind of fish is commonly known as Daibao. It likes to eat leftovers that people pour into the water. Over time, it becomes a habit. There are people on the shore and there is movement on the water surface. They will float up to see if there is anything to eat. Because they are very stupid and are loved by locals, they get this name that has praise and criticism.
In Chanpu City, every household will cook a dish called Steamed Silly, and the main ingredient is this kind of fish.
Liu Xiao nodded with a smile, indeed, it was really stupid.
However, it is quite harmonious.
