Chapter 362 [Great Flame in History] [Wedding Day]
There is no doubt about it.
This is an extremely spectacular and vivid city.
Busty pedestrians walk through the streets.
On both sides of the road, the shops were decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and the vendors gave out enthusiastic and unique shouts.
There are also mechanical devices that look like steam carriages to carry people.
And further away.
There are strange, steeple-shaped houses.
Metal pipes snake around the exterior walls of the houses, wrapping around the buildings like snakes.
Pipes extending in all directions convert the fire power into steam and transport it to every corner of the house.
It is used both for heating and for powering various mechanical steam devices.
The clothes that people wear and the style of architecture are different from any country that Sean has ever seen, and they are very unique.
Here, Xia En can also see a large number of flame-like signs and patterns.
Some are like runes containing secret power;
Some are like primitive and ancient hieroglyphics;
Others are simply some kind of decorative fire pattern.
This bustling and lively scene immediately gave Xia En a big impact.
Especially when one second it was a dark and closed cabin, and the next second we walked into a city like this.
Even if he didn’t start asking for information, Xia En was sure——
This situation and scene happened to be the [Great Yan Kingdom] that existed in the past!
Of course, this is different from the previous times when Shane traveled back in time.
This scene is just a scene in [Dayan]’s memory.
However, because it is integrated into the memory of all the people of [Great Yan Kingdom], this scene appears extremely realistic.
It was as if Xia En had really returned to the [Great Yan Kingdom].
Pedestrians nearby did not feel anything strange about Xia En's appearance. They just looked at him strangely and quickly looked away.
This is of course not because Xia En and the owner of the diary have become undead.
But because...
The combat uniform he wears, which is modified from the [Black Flame Robe], has the function of hiding his aura and reducing his own presence.
Coupled with the lively scene in the city at this time.
Naturally not many people will pay too much attention to him.
This is undoubtedly a good thing for Xia En's next actions.
After observing secretly for a moment, Xia En discovered that the city in front of him seemed to be in some kind of festive atmosphere.
Most people have smiles on their faces and are beaming with joy.
It seems like something good happened.
Vendors and residents even put up decorative ribbons, lights and flowers, adding a festive touch to the city.
Xia En even saw many passers-by looking around in the city like himself.
Looking at their clothes, they are probably people from other towns in [Dayan Kingdom], and they feel like country people coming to the city.
This made Xia En more sure of his guess.
Some kind of event worthy of celebration must have happened in this city, just like the [Congress of All Nations] in [City of Giant Woods].
This has attracted so many tourists.
"Newspapers are being sold! Newspapers are being sold!"
An eleven or twelve-year-old red-haired newsboy shouted on the street carrying two bundles of newspapers.
“Today’s headlines!”
“Our salary king will get married to the princess of [People of Ice and Snow] tomorrow, and the wedding will be held at Chegbosa Square!”
“At that time, the square will be open to most tourists, but please pay attention to maintaining order and etiquette and not to insult our [Dayan Kingdom]’s reputation.
Hearing this, Xia En couldn't help but have a look of astonishment on his face.
Not to mention, there were actually newspapers circulating in Dayan's era.
The more important thing is...
Marrying the princess of [People of Ice and Snow]?
Then, isn’t the time node presented by this memory exactly...
The eve of the wedding day of An Bing and Xin Wang! ?
Thinking of this, Xia En immediately understood where the festive atmosphere with lights and colorful decorations in the city came from.
For the people of [Dayan Kingdom], King Xin is not only the founder of this country, but also the leader who leads them to the path of prosperity and strength without having to endure hunger and cold.
They naturally have extraordinary respect, love and admiration for King Xin.
At this time, King Xin’s wedding naturally became a happy event for all the people.
Of course there should be a good celebration.
The conversations of several passers-by nearby also proved Xia En’s guess.
“Alas, in a blink of an eye, it’s time for the king to get married.”
An uncle with a beard and several scars on his face said with emotion to the people around him .
“You may not believe it when I tell you, but I was one of the first people to follow the king back then!”
"The king at that time was just a young man, shy and timid."
"I was suddenly exiled to this cold and barren land. I was panicked at first. , I don’t know what to do.”
“Who would have thought that he would later found [Dayan Kingdom] and achieve such a great cause?”
“That’s not it! How else to say that the king is the king? ”
Someone else immediately responded.
"There is only one person in history who can do this kind of thing, Wang."
"And, under the leadership of Wang, our life will only get better and better in the future."
< br>The weathered uncle nodded: "Yes, definitely!"
Soon, he showed another mysterious smile.
"I tell you, Wang was so handsome when he was young, even prettier than a little girl!"
"I wonder what the princess of [People of Ice and Snow] is like? Does she look good?"
"Is she worthy of our king?"
Talking about such gossip topics , everyone also became excited and talked a lot.
“I heard she is a great beauty!”
“If she wasn’t pretty, the king wouldn’t marry her, right?”
The uncle shook his head: "That's not necessarily the case."
"The king is good at everything, but he is too soft-hearted. He always keeps some things in his heart and does not tell others."
"Once again..."
When talking about his past with King Xin, the uncle was full of pride and was obviously proud of it.
Other passers-by also cast envious glances at him.
This shows how popular King Xin is in the eyes of the people of [Dayan Kingdom].
Soon, an aunt came out of the room and without saying a word, slapped the uncle on the back of the head.
"Stop bragging, are you following King Xin?"
"Isn't it just that when you were a cook, you helped King Xin cook two meals?"
"I was deceived by your words when I was young. I am still bragging at such an old age, and I am not ashamed!"
The uncle was a little hesitant and muttered in a low voice.
"What's wrong, cooking doesn't count as following? You bitch..."
"Huh?"
The aunt glanced away coldly.
The uncle trembled and said again: "You are so beautiful today, you are worthy of being my wife."
Everyone nearby laughed, and the air was filled with joy.
Listen to the conversations of these people and watch their lively and vivid expressions.
Xia En's mood was a bit complicated. If he hadn't known it beforehand, he probably would never have thought that the people he was talking to were just afterimages of the past.
The extent of their reality really surprised Xia En.
Moreover, Xia En also realized that these people were not images without interaction. I can even communicate and communicate with them.
Like a real living person.
This is because...
[Dayan] integrates not only memories, but also the souls of every citizen of [Dayan Kingdom], allowing the people in these memories to retain Past personality and behavioral patterns.
It can be said that [Dayan] at this time is a virtual world with a high degree of fidelity.
What may have happened in [Great Yan Country] in the past can also happen here.
Didi!
Suddenly at this moment, the communicator on Xia En's body responded.
"Shasha...is...Shasha...Captain Xia En?"
After connecting to the communicator, a familiar female voice immediately rang out.
Although the signal of the communicator seemed to be affected by some kind of force, it was still barely usable.
Hearing this voice, Xia En's expression suddenly became strange.
Because the person speaking is none other than [Princess Dayan] An Bing!
And since communication can be achieved, it means that Anbing may not want to be located at a distance from him, or he may even be in this city!
Xia En quickly replied: "It's me."
"An Bing, where are you now?"
An Bing's voice paused.
"Fanyan City, I am in Fanyan City now."
Xia En asked doubtfully: "Fanyan City...that is?"
"Fanyan City It is the royal capital of the [Dayan Kingdom] and the most prosperous and lively city in the entire [Dayan Kingdom].”
An Bing explained: "If I guessed correctly, you should already know it, right?"
"——This scene in my memory is exactly the day before my wedding."
Xia En responded: "That's right."
"Are you... okay?"
"Thank you for your concern, but I am not that fragile."
>
An Bing replied: "I have already realized in my heart... Shasha..."
"...There seems to be some problem with the signal of the communicator. We will meet at the Violet Cafe at No. 32 Belot Street."< br>
“Please ask for directions. People should be able to know the location of this cafe.”
“In this era, the people of [Dayan Kingdom] are extremely friendly to strangers.”
“Okay. I will, see you later.”
Soon, Shane hung up the communicator and asked the uncle from before about the location of the cafe.
Just as An Bing said, these people of [Great Yan Kingdom] seem to have some kind of hospitality characteristics.
The uncle not only pointed out the way for Xia En very enthusiastically, but also said.
“Young man, when I look at you, you look like you have just arrived in Fanyan City.”
“Don’t be afraid of strangers, just ask, how kind-hearted we Dayan people are.”
He thought quietly.
"Hey, little brother, I see you are not old. Do you have a wife?"
"If you want to find a wife, I can introduce you to..."
< br>Seeing that the topic has turned to a blind date for Xia En.
He couldn't bear this enthusiasm, so he had to run away.
However, before leaving, Xia En looked at the door he came from.
On the surface, it was just the front entrance of an ordinary hut, and there was nothing surprising about it.
When you pull the door outward, you can even walk into the interior of the cabin.
It is also a very ordinary room.
But if you hold the door handle and push it in, you will see a dark and strange cabin!
And for some reason, everyone else around him didn't seem to see this door.
Sure enough, just as recorded in the diary.
You can return to the previous cabin through this door.
Xia En silently remembered the location of the door, and then walked towards the agreed place.
All the way.
Xia En felt more and more the prosperous and vigorous atmosphere in Fanyan City.
Almost everyone has light in their eyes and good expectations for the future.
This may not be the most powerful period of [Great Yan Kingdom], but it is the most energetic period, like the sun at seven or eight o'clock in the morning.
Even the shabby hawkers on the roadside will puff up their chests proudly when mentioning the name [Dayan].
Xia En actually felt a little familiar with this scene.
In the original [City of Giant Trees], there was also a similar atmosphere.
It’s just that the endings for both of them don’t seem to be good.
If I have to say, there is something that makes Xia En feel strange.
That is, he did not see any religious-related buildings or things in this city.
Whether it is the [Hui Sect] which was the orthodox religion in the old times, or the [Deep Sea Church] which was widely spread in later generations.
Even the most likely [Steam Church] has not left any trace in this city.
This is actually quite rare.
After all, there are always people who hope to gain some kind of sustenance and relief from religion.
Not to mention, in this world, gods are actually real things.
The reason why [Great Yan Kingdom] is in this situation.
Shane can only think of one explanation -
People here don't believe in gods, they only believe in themselves and the flames in their hands.
Of course, there is also the salary king who leads them forward.
Not long after.
Xia En came to the Violet Cafe.
For [Dayan Kingdom] at this time, coffee shops seemed to be a new thing.
People seem to prefer spirits to coffee.
So there are not many customers in the cafe and it seems a bit deserted.
However, the environment of the entire cafe is very good, quiet and stylish, and not outdated at all from a modern perspective.
Xia En quickly found the dark ice in a corner.
There was a cup of coffee on the table in front of An Bing, exuding a fragrant aroma.
Looking at An Bing at this time, Xia En had a strange feeling inexplicably.
Although this woman now wears a hood and veil, her whole person perfectly blends in with the atmosphere of this cafe.
Elegant and calm.
As if...she should be sitting there.
In other words, this position belongs to her?
“Are you here?”
Seeing Xia En walking in front of him, An Bing came back to his senses belatedly, as if he had just been withdrawn from some memory. It's normal to leave.
Noticing Xia En's gaze, An Bing's smile was a little bitter.
“Sorry, I made you laugh.”
She explained: "Actually...I was a frequent visitor to this cafe a long time ago."
"Even after I got married, I would come here to order a cup of coffee and enjoy a quiet afternoon. "
"I didn't expect that after so many years, I could still taste the coffee here."
"And the taste is really the same as before..."
< br>An Bing's tone was extremely complicated.
There is joy, relief, and irresolvable melancholy.
