A knife in love

Chapter 2953

When Li Qiufeng spoke, the big shirtless man had already pushed his wheelbarrow to the top of the slope, then turned to the west and disappeared in an instant.Murong Danyan frowned and said, "I hope the leader of the Songtian family won't be as greedy as Liusheng Zongyan. Otherwise, the Songtian family will go crazy after seizing the throne of Fusang Kingdom and want to provoke Daming again. It is even more difficult to deal with than Yanagi Zongyan."

Li Qiufeng nodded, and said in his mouth: "Let's go to the depths of the island and see how the Songtian family stationed troops on the island. Maybe we can guess whether they have a conspiracy to invade Daming."

Murong Danyan had no objection, the two walked up the slope hand in hand, along the stone steps in the middle of the slope.After reaching the top of the slope, the two couldn't help being surprised when they saw the situation in front of them, and they stopped in unison.It turned out that after the stone path reached the top of the slope, it was blocked by a stone wall about Zhang Xu high, and could not move forward, but could only turn to the left.And tens of feet away from the left, there is a house with white walls and black tiles.This piece of houses is stacked on top of each other, and I don't know how many hundreds or thousands of rooms there are.From a distance, you can see the endless stream of pedestrians on the street, which is a bit more lively than Dong'an City.

Li Qiufeng looked at it for a while, and said in his mouth: "Looking at the appearance of people coming and going in front of us, the slope we walked just now is not the only way to the island. There must be other roads leading from the pier to the island. The pier Many tall houses were built on the island, although there are so many merchants and bandits who come to Songtianyan Island to trade, but according to Li, these houses separate the pier from the island, like a high wall. Someone who wanted to sneak attack the soldiers of the Matsuda family stationed on the island, or spy on the reality of the island, would have to spend a lot of time. If Li's guess is correct, there is no doubt that there is an eyeliner of the Matsuda family on the pier, and Behind these houses with white walls and black tiles behind the houses on the docks, there must be a huge murderous intent hidden."

After hearing Li Qiufeng's words, Murong Danyan felt uneasy.The two looked up for a while, and then walked forward hand in hand.After walking seven or eight zhang, the stone wall on the right came to an end, and the sight suddenly opened up, and then I could see the situation on the island clearly.It turned out that when Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan took a boat to Songtianyan Island, they did not distinguish between east, west, north, south, and they all relied on Ding Guan and the boss of the boat to guide them.The two of them once heard from Ding Guan that Songtian Rock Island faced south from the north, and the east, north, and west sides were surrounded by extremely steep cliffs, which even apes could not climb. Only the south side had an open beach. A wharf was built on the south side of the island, and a city was built inside the island.After hearing what Ding Guan said, Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan thought that the wharf was built on the shore, the terrain was flat, and the city was built on the island, so it must be located on a high place. Therefore, the terrain from the wharf to the city on the island should be from low to high Extending high, roughly like a hillside.But at this time, seeing the situation in the island with my own eyes, I realized that the land extending from the pier to the island for about three or four miles turned out to be a flat land, and only at the end of the flat land did the terrain suddenly rise.The city was built on a high platform, overlooking the large flat land from the pier to the platform.The flat land is full of houses with white walls and black tiles, and there are probably no less than a thousand houses at a glance.

Just now, Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan were walking on the pier, their eyes were blocked by the houses on the pier, and they couldn't see the situation on the island.Seeing so many houses lined up on top of each other at this moment, the two of them were so surprised that they forgot to speak for a while, and just stared blankly at those houses in a daze.After a long while, Murong Danyan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The Songtian family is really willing to spend their money to build so many houses on the island. If all the houses are filled with people, wouldn't this island live on the island?" Thousands of people?"

When Murong Danyan said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "The high platform is seven or eight feet higher than the flat ground, and the city is built on the high platform, taking advantage of the terrain. If the enemy comes to attack the island , even if the pier is breached, the Matsuda family can recall the remnants of the defeated soldiers to the city, and hold the city from a high position. If the enemy army wants to attack the high platform, it will be more difficult than ascending to the sky."

Li Qiufeng nodded after hearing what Murong Danyan said, and said: "Ding Guan said that the Songtian family has stationed thousands of elite soldiers on the island. The terrain here is so dangerous that only a thousand soldiers and horses are needed to guard the high platform. Even if tens of thousands of enemy troops came to attack, it would be difficult to capture the city. The leader of the Matsuda family sent so many troops to station on the island, definitely not only for defending the city, but also when they planned to turn against the court of Fusang Kingdom and other daimyos , using the soldiers and horses stationed on the island as a surprise army to attack the enemy from behind. At that time, the army of Dewa Kingdom will go south, and the surprise soldiers on Matsudayan Island will enter the Fusang Kingdom by boat and then go north, and then attack the enemy from north to south. Big win."

The two walked west side by side while talking.From time to time on the way, some people either carried a load or pushed a cart to catch up with them from behind.Seeing this situation, Murong Danyan whispered to Li Qiufeng: "The Songtian family's business is booming, and there are already many houses on the pier, so they can't put all the goods brought by merchants and robbers in them, so they can only be sent to the island. stored inside."

The two approached the houses with white walls and black tiles, only to find that the roads on the island are flat and the houses are neat.There are signboards hanging in front of many houses on both sides of the street. There are cloth shops, silk shops, grain shops and medicine shops, as well as many taverns and tea shops.There are people coming and going on the street, even lively.

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan walked into the street side by side, the aroma of wine and food wafted by from time to time, and the surrounding people were noisy and lively.Most of the passers-by who walked up and down the street talking and laughing were Han Chinese. Among them were rich businessmen with high crowns, silk shirts and big bellies, as well as powerful Jianghu figures with swords hanging from their waists.The two of them walked not far away, and from time to time, foreigners with high noses and deep eyes and strange clothes walked by.Murong Danyan saw that these barbarians had weird looks, totally different from the Han people and Fusang people, so he was curious and couldn't help staring at the barbarians in a daze.

At this time, four barbarian people came over shoulder to shoulder, and walked face to face with Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan.One of the tall Yi people saw that Murong Danyan was so beautiful, he looked at him in a daze, and thought that this little girl was a prostitute who leaned on the door, and he was overjoyed, and said a few words in his mouth He said, stretched out his furry right hand, and touched Murong Danyan's chest.

Murong Danyan was originally curious about the appearance of the barbarians and the clothes on their bodies, so he looked at them carefully. He didn't expect the barbarians to be so rude and dare to belittle himself on the street. When she reached her chest, without even thinking about it, she stretched out her right hand, and it was clasping the pulse gate of that barbarian.Although the barbarian was quite strong, Murong Danyan grabbed the pulse gate, and his whole body was numb immediately, he couldn't exert any more strength, he let out a scream, his knees went limp, and he fell on the ground immediately on the ground.
