Chapter 2004 A Bit Philosophical

Weng Lan listened very seriously, at least he seemed more serious than Qin An.

Qin An kept looking around while walking. He didn't even look at the nagging old man, and he didn't know if he listened to him.

The old man didn't mind. When he found that Weng Lan was listening carefully, he took the initiative to watch Weng Lan speak, which made Weng Lan even more embarrassed not to listen carefully.

So after walking out of the city, Weng Lan understood a lot of things. This story was a bit like the Eastern version of The Princess in Tragedy. No, it should be the Emperor in Tragedy.

This is a world similar to ancient times, but maybe the continent is bigger and there are more people.

It is said that twenty years ago, the Yun Empire unified almost all the territory of this continent and established the most unified and huge country in history.

But the good times did not last long. The emperor of the Yun Empire, Long Tianchen, died of illness and passed the throne to his second son, Long Junfeng.

Although Long Junfeng was young, he was still capable. However, he could not win over people's hearts because people's hearts were originally very scattered. His father conquered the country and passed away without waiting for treatment.

As a result, the Yun Empire split. If he hadn't escaped quickly, he might have died in the capital.

After escaping, Long Junfeng began to gather his loyal father's old subordinates to counterattack, but the enemy was too strong. After years of fighting, Long Junfeng didn't even understand who he was fighting, and was eventually forced to the most dangerous place in the continent. Cape City in the south.

The Cape of the Sea is a huge terrain extending like the sea. The highest part of the mountain is more than 10,000 meters, and the lowest is more than 1,000 meters.

It can be said that this place is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but behind it is also a desperate situation with no way out. There are all kinds of monsters in the deep sea, making it impossible to sail.

The emperor has actually been guarding this city for more than a year, and now it is the most difficult time.

"Hey, so you came at the wrong time. Now all the roads outside are blocked. Now that you've come in, you can't get out at all."

Weng Lan still respected the old and loved the young, and felt that the old man was kind, so he said: "Don't worry, old man, since we are here, we can naturally find ways to protect ourselves, right, Qin An?"

Weng Lan felt that it was a lie to say that he could protect himself, but it still depends on Qin An's intentions.

When asked by Weng Lan, Qin An looked back at her, smiled and nodded.

Qin An was not deaf, so of course he heard what the old man said.

Now it seems that this city may not only be Long Junfeng's desperate situation, but also an eternal arrangement for him. The previous zombie siege in the Altar City was just a precursor, and here is the real battle.

Hey, it seems that I can't deal with the huge stone territory. I just hope that my daughters Qin Yue and Qi Hao will be safe.

Qin An has tried, but at least so far he has not been able to break through the barrier and leave this place. This shows that the barrier form of this space is very complex and the energy is huge.

While following the old man, Qin An observed the terrain here, which was very mysterious.

Sloping down from the city wall, you can see a basin city. Houses are piled up one after another in the city, and the streets and alleys look very backward.

However, there are many people here, and the city is quite large. Qin An cannot see the boundaries of the city at a glance from a high place.

This side of the city wall is even more unique. The cliff suddenly rises up to the zenith. Such a natural wall is already considered a miraculous workmanship. It cannot be built by human engineering. Even modern construction technology is versatile.

Now Qin An is wearing short-sleeved clothes, and Weng Lan is also wearing jeans, which shows off his figure.

This kind of clothing made the people nearby cast shocked and contemptuous looks. If it weren't for the old man and the young man beside him, they would probably come over with pickaxes and kill him and Weng Lan.

Qin An was walking and saw a clothes store in front of him, so he took Qin Yue in to buy clothes.

The clothes here are all made of coarse cloth. They look more ancient than ancient times and are hard to the touch. They could be made into armor. After asking Qin An, he found out that these clothes were actually cut from tree bark.

There is a kind of tree here. The bark can be peeled off, soaked in water and cut, and can be made into clothes. The material is similar to hard cloth, but it is really hard.

Hey, it seems that I can only continue to wear fancy clothes, but I can't walk around in bark, right?

After coming out of the clothing store, Weng Lan ran to Qin An and whispered:

"What do we do next?"

"Well, I don't have any plans. Just settle down and live here and wait for Eternity to come find me."

"What? You want to wait for him to come to you?"

"Well, I don't know who he is yet. I have the intention to kill him, but I don't have that much hatred for her. And he is full of hatred for me and will definitely come to me. In this case, I will do it Why don't you go find him, just wait."

Weng Lan finally felt relieved when he saw Qin An being so calm.

It was Qin An who brought her in, and the more contact she had with Qin An, the more Weng Lan trusted this man.

If they were really as close as written in the book...of course he would protect himself.

No, no, I must find time to read the book The City in Danger at the End of the World, so that I can know everything about myself and him, Weng Lan had this thought in his mind.

"Ah? There is an inn over there, old man with a white beard. My wife and I are staying here. Thank you for escorting us all the way. Since we can't be separated from each other, we will stay here first. You can come and have a drink when you have time."

Weng Lan frowned, but she didn't expect Qin An to be so thick-skinned and directly said that they were husband and wife.

Okay, okay, no one here knows them anyway, so Qin An can just say this, as long as he doesn't admit it in his heart.

The old man with white beard said politely:

"Since the general wants to stay in the hotel, I won't bother you for now. Why don't I send you a guard, so that you don't have to pay for anything you do in the city."

"Oh, that's fine, thank you, old man."

Qin An was very rude.

The old man with a white beard smiled and looked at the young general beside him and said:

"Hua Jun, I think you should follow this general."

"I?"

Shanggu Huajun was dumbfounded at the time. He didn't expect that he would be assigned this job. After being stunned for a while, his head shook like a rattle.

"Master National Preceptor, I have to go to war. How can I protect this person here? You underestimated me!"

"Hey, Mr. Hua, it's not that Mu Nanxiang underestimates you. I know that you are a young hero, and your Shanggu family is also a loyal minister of our Yun Empire. However, in the past few years of war, all twenty-three men of the Shanggu family died in the battle. Now, You are the only one in the family, and it is already difficult for the old woman to ask you to be a city guard, so don’t even think about moving forward."

"Hmph, what kind of city guard general is he? He's just a young general who maintains the mobilization of supplies in the rear. He can't even touch the enemy's hair."

"Don't underestimate this position. You must know that what we have been fighting is a city defense war. The deployment of supplies is much more important than being on the front line. If the city defense supplies cannot keep up, then we will not be able to continue the fight. .”

"But there are thousands of city guards behind us who are responsible for managing supplies!"

Shanggu Huajun looked annoyed, obviously still unconvinced.

Qin An and Weng Lan looked at each other. They really didn't expect that this ancient Hua Jun was the only child of the Yang family. All the men in the family died, did they also leave behind a widow?

This was of course Qin An's idea, and he left a number in his mind.

At this time, a fast horse arrived and asked the national counselor Munan Xiang to go to the front line. The enemy retreated and it was not known whether there were other conspiracies.

Mu Nanxiang frowned and said: "They should have really retreated, but we are afraid of the worst. Mr. Hua, I will leave these two distinguished guests to you. I will go back to the city wall to have a look."

After Mu Nanxiang finished speaking, Dama left together with the person who came to report the news.

Gu Huajun's mouth was pouted, and he obviously still had the personality of a child.

?

Qin An smiled and said: "Boy, come on, your Imperial Master just said that all my expenses are free. Let me ask you, do you have wine here?"

"Wine? Huh! We have a lot of wine here, and it's all strong liquor. I'm afraid you won't be able to get up after one sip!"

"Ah ah ah, boy, I have lived for so many years, old man, and I have never seen you so arrogant. If you don't accept it, let's have a drinking fight. Let's make a bet. If I get drunk by you, I will listen to you in this place from now on. , let you be the boss, if you get knocked down by me, then you will listen to me from now on and let me be your boss, how about that?"

"Okay! Just come, I've never been afraid of anyone while drinking in this city."

In ancient times, Huajun was actually a playboy. He was still doted on by the women at home. He was depressed because he was not allowed to go to the front line. When he heard that he was going to fight for wine, he became energetic.

Qin An looked at the surrounding environment, pointed to the hillside not far away and said: "It's near the cliff. I think the environment is good, why is there no one living there?"

"It's too close to the city wall, so of course no one will live there."

"But there are obviously no people running around on the hillside, and the city over there is evenly divided. Why is there no one living there?"

Shanggu Huajun was stunned for a moment, and then said depressedly: "You are such a messed up person, I told you, because you were too close to the city wall, so you couldn't hold it back! That's why."

Qin An smiled and finally understood the reason.

"Okay, Shanggu Huajun, you go buy wine and groceries, and help me buy some tools for building a house. I'm going to get some wood, and I plan to go up there and settle down."

"What, you're going to build a house?"

"Well, that's it. I forgot what your Imperial Master said and asked you to help me spend money."

As Qin An spoke, he took Weng Lan's hand and walked up.

Weng Lan also couldn't figure out why Qin An wasn't looking for the eternal one, but he wanted to settle down here. He was really convinced!

Being pulled up by Qin An, Weng Lan couldn't help but said: "Qin An, tell me, why is it that no one lives there when it is close to the city wall?"

"Haha, haven't you thought about this question too?"

"Um."

"In fact, the truth is very simple, but we think it is complicated."

"What's the point?"

“A gentleman never builds a dangerous wall.”

"What?"

"A gentleman would not stand under a dangerous wall. Because it is too close to the city wall, everyone thinks it is unsafe, so no one goes there to settle down. That's why."

Weng Lan felt a little stupid. Thinking about it carefully, this was indeed the case.

Alas, it is really complicated.

Weng Lan couldn't help but laugh as she walked. This Qin An was quite interesting and had a bit of a philosophical temperament.
