After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 51 Coiling Dragon City in Another Time and Space

At this time, the Chipa Plateau is extremely rich in water sources. Relying on the natural height difference, a few waterwheels can realize automatic water supply around the clock.

It can also be understood that the Panlong Wasteland has always been the main traffic route connecting the Xiluo Kingdom to foreign lands. The key to the location of the Panlong City is far more than that of the Heishui City in later generations.

And if the products here are not rich, how can Panlong City persist for more than 30 years under the watchful eyes of powerful enemies?
Of course, walking in such a famous historical city, He Lingchuan felt vigilance in addition to sighing.

These two guys have looked for the temple and the Temple of the Red General, why didn't they look for Zhong Shengguang's former residence together, but waited for him to go with them?

There's probably something wrong with that place.

He Lingchuan was secretly worried, but on the surface he wanted to ask Sun Fuping for advice: "National teacher, do those resentful souls live here year after year, and only go out every September?"

"I'm afraid so."

"Since they can live and work here in peace, what are they doing outside?"

"Then we won't know until we get the Dafang pot."

He Lingchuan thought in his heart that he really deserved to be a national teacher, and he could express the three words "I don't know" so eloquently.

When assigning tasks before, Nian Songyu went to the Zhongfu, and now she is familiar with it.

But after reaching the place, Nian Songyu stopped in her tracks.

In front of me is a gray brick house with a black roof and a high lintel, with neat fronts and a few clumps of green bamboo protruding from the high wall. It really has the demeanor of a wealthy family.Two large characters on the door:
Run garden.

"Just here?"

Nian Songyu obviously hesitated, before saying: "The place is right, the house is right, but I went in and looked for it, and the family name of the person who lives here is Chen!"

He Lingchuan Daqi: "What?"

Walking into Runyuan, this is a large house with four entrances. The materials used for construction and furniture are very sophisticated. He Lingchuan even found that the screen wall is made of brick carvings from Tongzhou. There are more than 300 bricks. There are figures, landscapes and even plots. It's a beautiful story like a comic strip.This kind of brick carving is still very popular now, and it takes more than four months to transport it from Tongzhou to Heishui City.

The reason why He Lingchuan knew so clearly was because the He mansion in Heishui City also used this thing to decorate their appearance.

Of course, there is a garden in such an exquisite Runyuan. Rockery and flowing water are standard configurations. The garden is also planted with tall red maples, and there are exotic flowers and plants hidden in the corners under the maple trees.

The dozen or so plants in the front can barely recognize their shapes, but they don't know what species they are; the ones in the back are half hidden in the dark shadow of the trees, and He Lingchuan can't even see them clearly.

Nian Songyu pointed to this garden and said: "In the He Mansion in the deserted city, here is a stock wooden house, full of cabinets, and the floor is in a mess; in addition, I saw a few greeting cards in the side hall, indicating that the owner's surname is Chen, styled Huisheng."

He Lingchuan was stunned: "What period is Panlong City?" The water and soil are abundant, people live in peace, the city is rich, there is no shadow of war, and celebrities like Zhong Shengguang don't live where he should be.

He suspected that he had entered Panlong City in another time and space.

Sun Fuping answered: "If Zhong Shengguang doesn't live here, there should be another place to live. Mr. He, can you think of it?"

"Me?" He Lingchuan pointed to his nose, "How would I know?"

Nian Songyu said: "Think, think about it!"

Sun Fuping made a point: "The legend of the Panlong Desert has been circulating in Qiansong County for decades. You grew up listening to it. You should know a lot of anecdotes other than official history, even wild ones. For example, the commander Zhong Shengguang always Let's get up step by step. Where did he live before he was promoted?"

He Lingchuan was stunned: "The national teacher suspects that we have come to Panlong City before Zhong Shengguang became the commander?"

"Very likely." Sun Fuping nodded, "Looking for clues in such a big city is like looking for a needle in a haystack. The best variable to look for right now is Zhong Shengguang himself."

Although he had done his homework beforehand, his understanding was limited after all, and he couldn't grasp everything in detail, so he had to ask He Lingchuan, a local.

He Lingchuan thought for a while again, then shook his head: "No, I have no impression."

He knows no more about Panlong City than ordinary Heishui City people.Trivial things like how many times Zhong Shengguang moved, how many times he got sick, and how many women he had before he became famous are obviously beyond the outline.

"You have been in Heishui City for more than ten years, patronizing to make a wine bag and rice bag?" Nian Songyu said coldly, "It's better to ask He Chunhua to come down."

"You..." He Lingchuan was furious.

Nian Songyu clenched his fists, ready to give this guy some color when he breathed out the fragrance, but He Lingchuan changed the subject, "That's right, we should go back and find someone." He turned to Sun Fuping, "National teacher , how do we go back?"

This kid judges the situation, is he timid or clever?Before Sun Fu could speak, Sand Bandit Mao Tao rushed over from the corridor, excitedly saying: "I found something, I have something!"

Only then did the three of them remember that the boy had separated at some point: "What is it?"

"Dead! There are bones in the cellar."

Nian Songyu said unhappily: "What's wrong with dead people..." What's so strange?There are bones everywhere in the deserted city, and they can see all the way they walk, which is also the blood evidence of the slaughter of the city by the Xianba coalition forces.

But he immediately reacted and swallowed the following: "Go and see."

This is not the outside world, this is Panlong City where time stops.Any violations are valuable clues.

Everyone rushed to the cellar, lit candles, and found some corpses.

Panlong City is hot in summer and cold in winter. A big family like the Chen family digs more than one cellar to store meat, fruits and vegetables, pickles and ice.

Yes, hide solid ice in winter, eat snow and drink in summer.The hard ice stored in the cellar can also be used to make ice fruit and ice wine, and to cool the couch during the dog days, which is the exclusive enjoyment of rich families.

What Mao Tao found was the ice cellar. It is probably early summer in Panlong City, and the cellar is extremely cold.But as soon as everyone walked down, they saw bones scattered in the corner, and counting the skulls revealed that there were three dead.

Sun Fuping picked up the skull and observed it carefully, then said in a deep voice, "Really."

This is very unusual.Why do real human bones appear in the fantasy world?
The four of them had a flash of inspiration, and Nian Songyu lost his voice: "The expedition team from the Baling Kingdom! They have also entered the illusion."

That's right, the entrance to the illusion was the first to be found by the expedition team from the Baling Kingdom. Of course, they have the opportunity to enter this Panlong City.

Here comes the crux of the problem, how do people die?

"Look at their posture, they have been moved after death." Mao Tao squatted down to look closely, and suddenly gasped, "No, the bones are all messed up, if it wasn't disturbed by someone later, it would be, it would be..."

"After death, they were dismembered." Nian Songyu held up a radius bone, then found a shoulder blade, and looked at each other, "There are sharp scratches on each bone, so it shouldn't be an injury in life. "
