Chapter Fourteen: Fanhuadu Square

Green mountains surround the Flower City, adding a natural barrier to this beautiful capital. The execution square is located in the center of the Flower City.

As early as the founding of the Heyun Kingdom, in order to ensure peace and prosperity for the country and the people, Ye Hanqing used all the treasury funds to collect complete Ziying breath stones for the construction of water conservancy projects.

Ziying Breathing Stone is different from ordinary breathing stones. This kind of breathing stone can absorb the Kun Qi in nature and transform and release the Kun Qi in nature through itself.

The Ziying Breathing Stone is very rare. Legend has it that you can only encounter it when you reach the northernmost black desert of Heyun Kingdom.

In order to avoid damaging the internal structure of Ziying Breathing Stone, the mining tools must be wrapped in Kun Qi. In other words, the mining workers must awaken and master Kun Qi.

Famous blacksmiths from all over the country come here just to see the legendary Ziying Breathing Stone.

The water conservancy hub forged with this kind of suction stone can work completely independently and does not require any human power.

Seven years after the founding of the Heyun Kingdom, all underground Ziying pipelines across the country have been laid. The Ziying inhaling stones transform the natural Kun Qi, allowing water to flow from low-lying areas to high places, and the drought in the north has been greatly improved.

The underground Ziying pipe network solves the water problem of Heyun State.

Pipes and pipes are criss-crossed and arranged in an orderly manner. Hundreds of pipes converge in Fanhuadu. In order to improve the entire water supply system, people used the remaining Ziying suction stones to build a regulating hub in Fanhuadu Square to speed up the transportation of water.

To celebrate the completion of this huge project, craftsmen built the regulating hub into a fountain.

Whenever it comes to the rainy season in the south, the amount of water transported by pipelines increases, and a large amount of water will gather at the base of the Ziying Fountain.

The mouth of the fountain is like a flying dragon with its mouth open.

When the amount of water exceeds the limit, the excess water will gush out from the dragon's mouth, forming a spectacular landscape with Yun Kingdom.

The fountain erupts once a year, and the eruption is as magnificent as the return of mountains and seas.

The talented people of Heyun Kingdom called this landscape——Longyong.

When the Renjiu coup occurred, the Holy Lord demolished the underground pipe network that people had painstakingly built in order to refine the purer Gu Pills. The original Longkou Fountain was also destroyed by the Holy Lord.

The Holy Lord refined the Ziying Breathing Stones in the pipes and fountains to form a huge and efficient gu pellet refining device to supply the stingers.

Today, the fountain in the center of Fanhuadu Square has long been replaced by a cold execution platform.

Eight snake heads are carved under the execution platform, and each snake head has a thumb-sized hole in its mouth.

Whenever an execution was carried out, blood would be splashed all over the table, flow into the snake's head along the ditch on the table, and then flow out from the holes.

People no longer dare to approach the square on weekdays, and the blood-spewing snake head also symbolizes the dark rule of the Holy Lord.

About a thousand steps east of the square is the Holy Lord's main hall. Except for the few capable generals under the Holy Lord, almost no one dares to approach.

The main hall is like a demon king monitoring the movements of the entire Heyun Kingdom, as if the slightest vibration can wake up the demon king.

The west side of the Flowery City is completely opposite to the dense scene of the castle.

Most of the people in Fanhua City live in the west, with rows of low-rise wooden buildings. People have to do small businesses in order to make a living. There are more and more business people, and Peach Blossom Street came into being.

To the north and south of the Flower Capital City were thousands of acres of fertile farmland. Because the Flowery City was wet all year round and had thousands of acres of farmland, the Flowery Capital was also called the Granary of Heyun.

Of course, the Holy Lord will not let go of this fertile wilderness. Since the Holy Lord entered the city, the fertile fields to the south of the flower city have disappeared in an instant, replaced by the smoke-filled Guwan Processing Factory.

The north of the capital has naturally become a stinging military camp. The flowers now are not what they used to be. The river is polluted by wastewater from factories. The peach blossoms on both sides have long since declined, leaving only bare branches.

The warehouse was destroyed, the beggar was rescued, and the flowers were under martial law.

The three parties controlled this last pure land, and most of Fanhuadu's troops were sent to the west of the city.

The already miserable life of the people has become even worse.

The four west gates of the capital have long been sealed, and the garrison guards are taking turns guarding them day and night.

Shops of all sizes on Taohua Street in Xicheng were forced to close and people were stung and searched door to door, but people remained tight-lipped and even pretended not to know about the matter.

Not only Xicheng, but also the jungles and mountains near the Flower Capital have become the focus of the security forces.

The stinger army expanded the search area, starting from the foot of the mountain and slowly radiating to the entire mountain.

The sky inside the bag is still dark and the bonfire is still bright.

"Hey? Brother Biao."

Sun Biao looked back with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Didn't you only use one knife before? Now one knife isn't enough for you to cut vegetables?" Lin Heng joked.

Sun Biao remained silent, taking a deep breath from the burned out cigarette and silently looking at the two ancient celadon-glazed knives on his right hand.

He murmured, "One of these was left by an old friend."

After speaking, Sun Biao stroked the two ancient knives with his calloused hands, his pupils reflecting the past.

Lin Heng didn't say much when he saw this. He was more concerned about Ye Lan's injury and hurried to Ye Lan's tent.

Before Lin Heng could reach the tent, an ethereal and childish voice sounded out of thin air.

"The young master is too seriously injured and is still in a coma. Don't disturb his rest."

Lin Heng paused for a moment, sat cross-legged, and said, "I will guard your highness here to see if there is anything I can do to help."

The childish voice sounded again.

"You can't help me much, just do whatever you have to do."

Lin Heng did not answer and still sat silently in front of the tent.

Sun Biao watched the farce from the side and mocked, "Don't worry about him, he is as stubborn as a cow."

"Let's go, apprentice! Don't worry about them, master will teach you something different!"

After saying that, the two of them stood up.

Xu Hao didn't say anything. He gathered Kun Qi with his hands and slowly opened the mouth of the bag.

An old man and a young man were talking and laughing in the forest. Sun Biao was holding a cigarette and talking about the key points of Kun Qi.

"You felt the flow of Kun Qi last time, and what you have to do today is to control the flow of Kun Qi." Sun Biao said seriously.

"When you can control Kun Qi and mobilize it, you are not far from awakening Kun Qi."

Zhang Zhendong listened to Sun Biao's words with a half-understood expression, thinking that just feeling the flow of Kun Qi had already taken him a whole day, and this feeling did not always exist.

After sitting in the mountains and meditating for a day, I didn't notice the subtle "breath" flowing in my blood vessels until dark. Controlling Kun Qi may be more difficult than climbing to the sky.

Sun Biao looked at the surprised expression on Zhang Zhendong's face and knew that the young man did not understand what he said.

"I only give you ten days. If you haven't controlled it within these ten days, then unfortunately you may never be able to awaken Kun Qi in this life."

Ten days! How is it possible? Zhang Zhendong felt like a huge stone was hanging in his heart. If he has not mastered Kun Qi after ten days, who will avenge his mother?

Zhang Zhendong secretly made up his mind.

For the sake of mother and Yun Guo, he would not hesitate to risk his own life!
