Everything starts with Datang Ssangyong

Chapter 90 Baling
Lanjiang Island is located in Dongting Lake. Xu Ziyi and Cheng Lingsu had been boating for a long time before landing. After walking for a while, they arrived at the entrance of Baling City.

Due to the great chaos in the world, compared with the wars raging all over the Central Plains, the current Baling City is still relatively stable.This is enough to be seen from the endless pedestrians at the gate of the city.

Baling City is an ancient city with thick walls, the city wall alone is about ten feet high. If it is placed in Jinlao's rivers and lakes, just relying on this towering and tall city wall is enough to make any enemy who tries to attack look away. Excited!

Xu Ziyi and Cheng Lingsu stood hand in hand, but Cheng Lingsu raised his head and looked at the city wall that was more than ten feet high, and still couldn't help shaking his head and said: "Brother Xu, this city wall is a bit too high!"

Cheng Lingsu had also been to Baling City before because he was out shopping.

But even if he had seen it with his own eyes before, when he came to the city of Baling again, he couldn't help but feel emotional.

As early as in the world of Flying Fox, Cheng Lingsu and Xu Ziyi traveled together almost all over the world.

At that time, Baling City had already been renamed Yueyang, and the city wall was no more than two feet high. When she and Xu Ziyi passed by the capital on the way, the highest point of the city wall was no more than three feet.

And here, the city wall of Baling City is more than ten feet high. Such a towering city wall, Cheng Lingsu had never seen such a tall city wall if he had not come here!
"Little sister, you don't know something! Baling City is not really a big city. Chang'an, Luoyang and Yangzhou are the most towering and strong cities in the world. The outer wall alone is as high as thirty feet away. !"

Surprised to see Cheng Lingsu, Xu Ziyi explained with a smile.

"Thirty feet away?"

After hearing Xu Ziyi say that the outer walls of the three cities in Chang'an were as high as [-] feet, Cheng Lingsu couldn't help but was surprised again, and he obviously couldn't believe it.

How high is thirty feet, a hundred meters high!
The wall of Baling City is about 30 meters high, which Cheng Lingsu regards as a towering city that is rare in the world. If it is as high as [-] meters, Cheng Lingsu naturally dare not imagine it.

Therefore, if such a huge project is to be completed, I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent!

Cheng Lingsu had doubts in his heart, but he thought of the evaluation about Sui Yang Emperor in history. When it was said that this person was so successful and squandered people's power wantonly, Cheng Lingsu's doubts in his heart were less.

"Young sister and I will walk together in the future and you will understand!"

Knowing why Cheng Lingsu was surprised, Xu Ziyi spoke up.

The architecture of the Great Tang World is indeed too exaggerated. Not to mention the three cities of Luoyang, Chang'an, and Yangzhou whose outer walls are as high as [-] feet away, just the big city with a wall of more than [-] feet. There were dozens of them under the rule of the Sui Dynasty. as much.

Such a project, even for future generations, can be counted as one of the big projects!

As for the three cities of Chang'an, Luoyang, and Yangzhou, they can be called super projects!

Xu Ziyi and Xu Ziyi sighed and stepped into Baling City.

Although the Baling Gang is not as good as Chang'an, Luoyang and other big cities, it can be regarded as the most prosperous big city in the hundred miles around here.

Unlike Huaibei, Jiangnan, Shandong and other places where there are rebels everywhere, the hundreds of miles around Baling are still under the rule of the Sui Dynasty, and the lives of the people nearby are relatively stable.

It's just that troubled times are approaching, and there are more homeless people in the city. It seems that they are more affected by the situation in the world.

Speaking of which, it was the second time for Xu Ziyi to step into Baling City. The last time Xu Ziyi came here was to uproot the forces of the Baling Gang.

After he occupied Lanjiang Island, he had a bad relationship with the Baling Gang. After being harassed several times by them, Xu Ziyi, who was a little bit annoyed, picked up the local stall of the Baling Gang by himself, and then solved Xiao Mian. After acquiring two masters under his command, the power of the local Baling Gang was greatly reduced.

Xu Ziyi already knew the importance of Baling to the Baling Gang!

Speaking of the importance of Baling, one has to mention the inside of the Baling Gang!

In the early years, the Baling Gang gained the support of Yang Guang through the Xiangjia, and their power expanded rapidly. The leader, Yangan Lu Kangshou, was also an ambitious person. He seemed to be cooperating with the Xiangjia, but in fact, they had secretly annexed them. The Xiang family is in business, so the two families have secretly been at odds for a long time.

It's just that Lu Kang's hands misjudged the power of the Xiang family. The Xiang family seems to be cooperating with Lu Kang's hands on the bright side.

It can even be said in other words, the person cultivated by the two factions of the Xiang Family and the Demon Sect through the joint efforts of the six sects, through him to hoard wealth for the Demon Sect and expand its power by all means.

However, the Xiang family's kidnapping of women seems to cater to Yang Guang's needs and cater to their preferences, hoping that Yang Guang's protection will strengthen and expand the power of the Xiang family; Brothels and casinos.

In fact, it is to use this to provide a new generation of disciples for the various factions of the Demon Sect, so that each faction will have successors.

Therefore, after Yang Guang was murdered, Lu Kangshou was assassinated by the Shadow Assassin.

As for Baling City, it was under the influence of Xiao Mian, who had just joined the Baling Gang.

Xiao Xian is a descendant of the royal family of Nanliang, with an extraordinary status, and is well-known in Baling area.

Now that the world is in chaos, not to mention Xiao Mian, even the four major clans have their own selfish motives, as evidenced by the Li clan's rise of troops in Jinyang not long ago!
The Xiang family had long been united with Xiao Mian in private, so the last time the business of the Xiang family suffered a setback, Xiao Mian, who was serving as Luo Chuan's order in other places, sent two of his masters to come to help overnight.

Baling is not only extremely important to the Xiang family, but also especially important to Xiao Mian.

When Xu Ziyi heard Cheng Lingsu say that the Baling Gang had made a comeback, Xu Ziyi was not surprised. Now that Li Yuan has raised his troops, Xiao Mian will inevitably feel a little ready to move under the encouragement.

Therefore, Xu Ziyi also wanted to take this opportunity to spy on the reality of Baling City by taking the opportunity of traveling with his younger sister today.

He frustrated the Xiang family's business, and beheaded Xiao Xian's two masters. Since the two sides had turned against each other, Xu Ziyi naturally did not want Xiao Xian to occupy this Baling as he wished.

Through today's observation, Xu Ziyi found that the high walls of Baling City, the archery towers at the gate, the bell tower and the drum tower confront each other, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Xu Ziyi and Cheng Lingsu were walking on the street. Looking from a distance, there are many arches and pavilions standing across the street. There are many shops on both sides. The long street is simple and simple, and the houses are row upon row. I completely forgot that the war outside is sinister.

As for the vagrants begging on the street, driven by groups of soldiers, they scattered and fled in all directions. Some people panicked and even rushed towards Xu Ziyi and the two of them.

Seeing these vagrants in a panic, Xu Ziyi and Cheng Lingsu avoided them on purpose.

But at this moment, someone bumped into Cheng Lingsu on purpose, and Cheng Lingsu frowned slightly to avoid it, but at this moment, he still reached out to touch her arms.

Seeing that this person was a thief, Xu Ziyi on the side smiled slightly, thinking that these people are really unlucky, they actually stole from the little girl, they are really unlucky!
As soon as the thief touched Cheng Lingsu's clothes with his right hand, he felt that his index finger was on fire, and he couldn't help jumping up all over his body while screaming in pain.

It wasn't until this time that the thief realized that there was a dense blister on his right hand at some point, which was very scary.

It turned out that after hearing what Xu Ziyi said, Cheng Lingsu realized that this world also had hidden dangers, so the red scorpion powder was naturally sprinkled on his clothes as usual.

This red scorpion powder is just a kind of brown powder, which is not extremely toxic. After a long time, the toxicity will disappear naturally, but the feeling of burning like fire after touching the body is unspeakably miserable.

"You hurt me!"

Feeling the burning pain in his right hand, the thief couldn't help crying.

Cheng Lingsu looked intently, and it turned out that in front of her was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy with delicate features, not like a gangster.

But when her eyes fell on the extremely fair neck of the young man, she couldn't help but feel strange.

But at this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from a restaurant on the long street not far away, and then a figure was seen rushing out from the second floor and jumping directly onto the long street.

This man was dressed in strong clothes, with a strong figure, holding a serrated broadsword in his right hand, he looked fierce, but at this moment he was frightened.

It seemed that there was some terrifying opponent in the restaurant, this well-dressed man didn't even have the slightest thought of resisting, and was ready to flee after landing.

But when he just took a step forward, he suddenly fell on his back, completely silent.

Seeing that the man suddenly fell down and was silent, Xu Ziyi frowned slightly and stepped forward to check, only to find a tiny red spot between the man's eyebrows.

Seeing this, Xu Ziyi understood the cause of the man's death. Such a small wound was clearly pierced by a silver needle into the brain, and there was only one person nearby who had this skill.

Thinking of this, Xu Ziyi looked up at the restaurant.

But at this time, there was another bang, and a man covered in blood crashed through the window and flew out several feet away. Seeing that he finally escaped from the sky, the man couldn't help showing a smile of the survivors after the catastrophe.

But before he was happy for a long time, he heard a "swoosh", and saw a flying needle flying out of the restaurant. Hearing the sound, the man's face changed drastically, and the long sword in his hand turned into a white light with enough internal force, trying to swing away the flying needle. one stitch.

However, when the two collided, it was the long sword in his hand that was the first to burst, and then he heard the man grunt and fell directly from the air.

It turned out that although his sword didn't stop the flying needle just now, it still changed the trajectory of the flying needle so that it didn't hit the vitals of his body, so he narrowly escaped death.

After narrowly escaping from the dead, the man didn't care about his excitement, he rushed towards Xu Ziyi in a panic as he was eager to escape.

"Step aside!"

Seeing Xu Ziyi who was standing in front of him, the man's eyes flashed coldly, and the long sword in his hand suddenly stabbed out of his chest.

It's just that he still found the wrong opponent this time. As soon as he stabbed out with the long sword, someone grabbed the right hand holding the sword. Internal energy leaks out.

In just a moment of effort, most of the internal energy in the man's body was sucked away by Xu Ziyi.

After realizing the abnormality in his body, the man was terrified, and his left hand turned into a palm to attack, but just as he made a move, Xu Ziyi grabbed the pulse door instead, and he couldn't move at all for a while.

I can only watch helplessly as all my internal energy is sucked away by the other party.

After a few breaths, feeling the reality of the emptiness in the dantian, the man who had been sucked out of his internal energy seemed to be ashamed, and after being let go by Xu Ziyi, he sat down directly.

"Brother Xu, you came just in time!"

At this time, there were two more figures on the long street. I saw that this person was less than 30 years old, wearing a maroon satin leather gown, with a burly figure and a bearded face. His appearance was extremely majestic and mighty.
And in his arms, there is a pink figure, this person is Dongfang Bubai!
I saw the two of them cuddling together, looking from a distance, they were so close!
