Guo Shenglin's more than 100 villagers and elders were quickly assembled.

After all, they all fled, and those guys threw away a lot of things along the way, and there really aren't many things that can really be brought on the road.

Seeing that those fathers and villagers had already picked up properly, Guo Shenglin hugged his fist at Huang Siyu and said, "In this way, Miss Huang has worked hard." ”

"Brother Guo is polite. Huang Siyu smiled softly and said that he didn't ride a horse anymore, so he led the fleeing people with Nalan Zixuan, Li Xiaoxi and Guo Shenglin towards Qizhou City, which is not far from the east.

When people are disappointed or even desperate, they may feel that time flies quite slowly, and every moment has a sense of torment that life is worse than death, and when people rekindle hope, they will burst out with powerful spiritual power, and time will become quite rapid for them, and they will pass before they know it.

In this way, it took more than an hour, and Huang Siyu arrived in Qizhou City with Nalan Zixuan, Li Xiaoxi, Guo Shenglin and others.

It was only a mile away, and everyone felt that in the originally flat field of vision, a continuous black wall suddenly appeared.

And at this distance, on the wide official road, there is already a dense flow of people, and the crowds are crowded. People of different statuses from all over the world gathered from all directions, along the avenue wide enough for dozens of horses to run in parallel, and marched towards Qizhou City not far ahead.

Among these pedestrians, there are rich and noble people riding tall horses and luxurious carriages, there are scholars who carry book baskets and study and seek officials, there are knights with swords and knives, there are peasants in simple clothes, hoes and sickles, and of course, there are also many refugees in ragged clothes with children and daughters like Guo Shenglin and other fathers and villagers.

In short, Qizhou City, which is still a mile away, is like an open and inclusive pocket, no matter what kind of people or things can be accepted into it.

"There are so many people!" Even Nalan Zixuan, who had traveled south and north to many large state capital cities, couldn't help but sigh at this moment.

Huang Siyu touched Nalan Zixuan's head with a smile and petted it, and laughed softly: "Sister Zixuan, this is only outside the city, if you enter the city for a while, you will know how prosperous this Qizhou City is." ”

Hearing Huang Siyu's words, Guo Shenglin on the side also sighed with heartfelt emotion: "People say that the world is prosperous in Dongzhou, and Dongzhou is prosperous in Qizhou. I didn't believe it, but now I have to. ”

Huang Siyu still only smiled softly, and then turned his head to the villagers behind Guo Shenglin and said, "Uncles, aunts, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, let's go a little harder, and we can go to Qizhou City." ”

"Okay!!" The crowd behind them all felt that they were full of energy because they saw hope, and many young and strong young men even shouted out directly to express their gradually overflowing excitement.

After walking like this for a while, when they came to a gate in Qizhou City, everyone looked up at the ten-zhang high city wall, except for Huang Siyu, everyone else couldn't help but exclaim.

"How many bricks do you have to build up such a high wall?!"I damn it!!Who can climb up this high?!"You are stupid!!You still climb this wall as if this wall is the courtyard wall of your house?!!You really don't think about it!!"......

Listening to the noise of Wuyang Wuyang like a swarm of flies behind him, although Guo Shenglin was also shocked by the city wall of Qizhou City, he felt that his face was red, and an inexplicable embarrassment hit his heart.

Fortunately, Huang Siyu saw it clearly, and didn't laugh at anything, just smiled softly: "Speaking of the city walls of Qizhou City, it has been some years. I remember when I first came to Qizhou with my father when I was a child, the walls of Qizhou City were already so tall. ”

"Huh?!Sister Siyu, talk about it quickly!!" Huang Siyu's words really succeeded in attracting the attention of others, and Nalan Zixuan, who was closest to her, couldn't wait to shake Huang Siyu's jade hand and coquettishly.

"Okay, good, good, Sister Zixuan, my sister's hands have been broken by you!" Huang Siyu touched Nalan Zixuan's head very helplessly, and then he told the story.

"The history of Qizhou City, if I'm not mistaken, is almost more than a thousand years old......"

In fact, the history of Qizhou City is really related to the family history of the Qizhou Wang family.

More than 1,300 years ago, when the ancestors of the Wang family were named hereditary kings of Qi by the then dynasty, they built the original Qizhou City on the boundary of today's Qizhou City.

At that time, the city of Qizhou was only two miles from east to west, only one and a half miles from north to south, the city wall was only one and a half zhang high, and the population was only a few thousand.

After the establishment of the contemporary dynasty, although it took away the hereditary respect of the Qizhou Wang, it could not completely suppress the Qizhou Wang.

A hundred years later, after the contemporary dynasty lost control of Dongzhou, the Qizhou Wang clan, who had regained the actual control of the ancient Qilu land in Dongzhou, began to build a new city in the south of the old Qizhou city out of strategic needs.

This huge project lasted for ten years, so it has the scale of today's Qizhou City. More than eighteen miles from east to west, fifteen miles from north to south, the city wall is as high as ten zhang, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, the thickness at the bottom of the city wall reaches ten zhang, and the top of the city wall is also two and a half zhang wide, enough to accommodate several horses in parallel. The whole city has eight city gates, two in the east and west, two in the north and south, two and two correspond, the city gate is five zhang high, ten zhang wide, one zhang thick, the use of Qizhou Wang family independent research and development of mechanical power to open and close the city gate.

As for the city, there are 11 north-south streets and 9 east-west streets in the whole city, the streets are wide, and there are neat ditches on both sides of the streets, making the whole city form a chessboard layout.

The whole city can be described as a huge layout, looking at the world, except for Chang'an City, the capital of the Sui and Tang dynasties in history, which can surpass the scale of Qizhou City, there is no one who can stand out. Even the imperial capital of the current dynasty pales in comparison to this thousand-year-old city.

Of course, this is only the main city of Qizhou City, and does not include the old city of Qizhou City, which is opposite the main city of Qizhou City across the Yellow River, and the Qiwang Fort that forms a triangle with the current main city and the old city.

If those two places are also counted, then the north and south of Qizhou City will be more than twenty miles away.

After listening to Huang Siyu's story, the others couldn't close their mouths for a long time.

They were all stunned.
