Chapter 726 Thousands of cities and thousands of faces
Li Luo paused for a moment, a flash of panic flashed in his eyes. I'm afraid even Li Luo didn't notice it. He didn't expect that an unintentional remark would cause such a big reaction from Tang Tang, and Tang Tang's look was definitely not false.
I've already made up my mind.
Li Luo was quite upset because he shouldn't have said this.
In the crowd, don Juan kept paying attention to Li Luo and Tang Tang. When he saw the strange expressions on their faces, he frowned slightly. It seemed that he had to worry about the little girl Tang Tang again.
Chonglou Mansion Wanlou City.
Named after Wanlou, Li Luo had expectations in his heart before entering the city. Wanlou City is famous among the prefectural cities in Dagan. It is as famous as Yangnan City in Yuzhou and Zhuocheng in Zhuozhou. They are both prosperous and prosperous in Dagan.
place.
Li Luo met merchants from Zhuocheng who came from Wanlou City. When asked about the city, they all praised it and praised Wanlou City.
The city wall of Wanlou City is very high, about the same height as Zhuo City, but thinner than that of Zhuo City. There are mottled marks on many places on the city wall. It looks like it is very old. According to records, it was still there when Wanlou City was built.
Hundreds of years older than Bizhuo City, it can be regarded as one of the leading ancient cities among the thirty-three prefectures of Dagan.
The city wall is so tall. When you get closer and look up, you feel a little depressed.
When everyone passed through the city gate, their eyes suddenly opened up. Li Luo took a heavy breath and stopped involuntarily. When he looked at Le Shang again, he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.
The scenery in the city is very different from other places. If he had to use one word to describe the scenery he saw in front of him, Li Luo only wanted to use the word "immortality".
Wanlou City is very big. Standing on this side of the city gate, you can't see the other side at a glance.
There are rows of pavilions in the city, including wooden towers, bamboo towers, and stone towers. They are of different heights, sizes, distances, and colors. It should have a chaotic feeling. I don’t know why, but at this moment, there is a mysterious feeling in my eyes.
of peace and tranquility.
It was only at this time that Li Luo truly realized why it was named after Wan Lou. The buildings located in this city were probably ten thousand farther away.
The taller ones, the shorter ones, the small and exquisite ones, the magnificent ones, all have different appearances, different light and shade, and are well-proportioned. There are trees between the buildings and flowers under the trees. Every place has its own grand scene, even if
It is a simple and plain small building mixed in, but it also has an intriguing artistic conception.
There is no deliberate distinction between the pavilions, just like the path under the feet of an interested tourist. Wherever you stroll, you will find an alley, with buildings on both sides of the alley.
The wine flags are leaning, the brocades are carefree, and there are many people walking among the flowers and under the trees, some are relaxing, some are laughing, and there are also children walking among the crowds, bustling with people.
There is water in the city, an island in the water, and a pavilion on the island. Li Luo heard someone say that there are three connected lakes in Wanlou City, with unique pavilions on the shore, small bridges, flowing water, green trees, and lively places.
There are also quiet places.
Along both sides of the lake, there is stillness amidst movement, and movement amidst stillness, just like a fairyland.
The most wonderful part is the plank road in Wanlou City, which stretches around the pavilions, high or low, forming bridges when meeting water, and forming arches when meeting roads. Just like these buildings in the city, they are made of wood and bamboo, as well as earth and stone.
There were waterways lingering in the city. Li Luo took a cursory look and found that these waterways were built with great care. There were many buildings in the city, so if a fire broke out, it would be a serious hazard. However, these waterways could separate the fire and allow people to get water nearby to prevent the fire from spreading.
It's just spring now, the water is very clear, and you can see swimming fish. When you paddle on it, it seems like there is an upside-down city quietly hidden under the water, which is particularly fascinating.
There are lanes for people and horses on the streets, which are unrelated. Although there are many people and pedestrians, there is no sign of congestion at all.
Along the street, there are many pavilions with five floors or more, and there are also low-rise residences with one storey on the ground floor. They don't look shabby and out of place, and they are decorated like a painting.
There are several plank roads that extend from the shorter roofs and disappear into the canopy of trees nearby.
Walking on the plank road feels like walking on the clouds, and the feeling is even stronger as if you are above the water. Looking down, you can seem to see the tourists in the underwater city waving to the pedestrians on the water.
It was the first time for Li Luo to see such a breathtaking scenery. He couldn't help but slow down and look at the pavilions with different styles.
Suddenly, Li Luo suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the cities in Shuzhou were said to have a thousand cities and a thousand faces. It turned out that the buildings in those cities all originated from the Wanlou City.
Here you can see the architectural scenery that you have seen since entering Shuzhou along the way, but the pavilions here are more ancient. Even a piece of square stone under your feet seems to have recorded the rise and fall of Wanlou City for thousands of years.
Seeing Li Luo's eye-opening look, Tang Tang couldn't help but smile and explain some of the allusions and records in Wanlou City to Li Luo.
Li Luo listened to Tang Tang's eloquent talk with great interest. He didn't know whether it was the intoxicating scenery or Tang Tang's voice like an oriole coming out of the valley. Anyway, he was a little crazy.
The Tang family has a very high reputation in Shuzhou. Within a few miles of entering the city, dozens of people bowed to Tang Wang and saluted. Some people who recognized the Tang family but were not familiar with them also stood by the road and nodded.
present.
People in the Tang family rarely looked arrogant, and they all returned the greetings with friendly expressions.
However, Tang Tang was the one who watched the most. Not only young people, women, elders, but also the children of the general manager also stopped to look at each other. They were amazed. The difference was that most of these people were just amazed by Tang Tang's beauty, and these young people also stopped to look at her.
The man also secretly guessed about Li Luo's origins. He was so close to Tang Tang. Although he didn't feel any hostility, he still didn't look good in envy.
Finally, we arrived at Tangmen, Shuzhou, which is famous all over the world.
The Tang family is located in the southwest corner of Wanlou City, avoiding the most prosperous areas in the city. It has the intention of keeping a low profile and not competing with the Dagan government.
Almost all the land in Wanlou City was occupied by the Tang Family Mansion Garden. Li Luo took a look from a distance on the plank road.
You can see less than half of the front mansion. If the back mansion is symmetrical to all the places, it should be in the shape of a hexagon.
What made Li Luo stunned was that the Tang Mansion seemed to be no smaller than Prince Chun's Mansion in Zhuo City, covering an extremely large area.
A palace wall is close to the west gate of Wanlou City. There are many pavilions in the courtyard wall. When entering the main entrance, there is a main hall, which is three stories high. It is at the highest point of the terrain, overlooking the entire front palace.
There is a square in front of the temple, paved with white stone, which looks reflective in the bright sunlight. It cannot be said to be jade. Based on this alone, it looks like it is the richest in the world.
There are green trees on both sides of the hall, and pavilions appear and disappear in the woods. When the breeze blows and lifts the branches, you can see the beautiful buildings and pavilions behind the trees.
