It is different from the four or five feet tall city walls that Taipan saw along the way, and it is completely different from what Taipan imagined.
In Taipan's imagination, the capital of the Han Empire should be a majestic city with a wall of more than ten feet high. However, when Taipan arrived at the foot of Chang'an, the wall of Chang'an City, the imperial capital, was only more than ten feet high. Not only was it not as good as the county towns in the empire, but even the small countries around the Han Empire were not as good as those of the small countries.
Just looking at the height of the city wall, no one can believe that this would be the capital of the Han Empire, Chang'an.
When you get closer, the magnificent pressure lingers like rain and fog, lingers around Tai Pan's body, invisible and invisible and unstoppable.
The heaven and earth energy in the meridians all over Taipan's body was silent like stagnant water under this magnificent pressure.
I couldn't help but feel that Taipan was the huge pressure from the ninja, mobilizing the energy of heaven and earth between the meridians all over my body, gathering between my eyebrows and eyes.
So there was a cool feeling lingering in Taipan's eyebrows, as if the wind was blowing through Taipan's limbs and bones.
If someone looked at Taipan's face up close, he could see that there was a faint rune standing on Taipan's eyebrows, like an open eye.
In the Tianmu, Chang'an City in front of Taipan suddenly changed.
On the low city wall, golden bricks and stones spread up layer by layer, endlessly into the sky.
After walking dozens of steps forward, he walked to the foot of Chang'an City. Only after Taipan realized that the edges and corners of the golden bricks and stones were all intertwined by golden chains.
The golden chains were shaking, and there seemed to be a crisp sound, spreading to the depths of Tai Pan's mind, entangling the meridians, vitality, and even the three souls and seven spirits all around him.
His eyes penetrated the golden bricks and stones, and saw the interior of Chang'an City. At first glance, there were all interlaced golden chains.
"Hmm?" In the dark, there seemed to be a vast and heavy gaze as deep as a mountain. From the interlaced chains, it fell on Tai Pan's body. In front of Tai Pan's eyes, it felt dizzy, as if it was hit hard.
The stars in front of Tai Pan were flashing, and his body shook. Then his right hand couldn't help but cover his eyes and forehead. He bent down and coughed violently.
"Senior Brother!" Hu Weiyi, who was following Taipan, also took two steps forward and supported Taipan, with a nervous look on his face.
As for the pedestrian vendors coming and going, they all looked at the young scholar who suddenly came forward and then covered his forehead and coughed.
The guards holding hands at the city gate also came forward with iron swords, stopped in front of Taipan, with vigilance.
"I first arrived in Chang'an, and I was surprised and I was disobedient. I hope you don't want to be surprised." After coughing a few times, I calmed my breath and stood up straight, bowed my hand with a graceful look, showing my pale face, and then took out my own road quotation from my waist and handed it to the guards in front of me for inspection.
While the guards were checking the documents, Taipan also looked at the "low" Chang'an City in front of him again.
Under the city wall are five city gates parallel, the largest in the middle, almost rubbing the top of the city wall, and reducing to the two sides in turn. The city gate on the left is for leaving the city, and the city gate on the right is for entering the city.
There were soldiers on duty under the city gate and on the city walls. Each soldier, the cape on his head, the armor on his body, and even the cloak behind him, and the long tassels on the spears were all bright red, like fire and blood.
The soldiers were like balls of beating flames.
What surprised Taipan the most was the aura of these soldiers - the aura of each soldier was not as good as a beast of disaster. In other words, these soldiers were all heroes selected from thousands of human beings, and each of them could fight against ten or even dozens of people with one.
As for the strongest person among them, the aura on his body was extremely fierce, and his blood and energy were almost rising. This was a master!
In the small border countries in all directions, such existence is enough to suppress a prefecture and county, and to protect a family's prosperity for a hundred years. The master suppresses the existence of a country. An ordinary word is enough to determine the fate of the prime minister and general. However, these heroes can only be used as ordinary soldiers in the Chang'an City of the Han Empire, and the master can only serve as a small city gate order, the most humble existence among officials.
His eyes moved away from the soldiers and swept over the ordinary people under the city wall.
The faces of these people were filled with a sense of pride, a kind of inexplicable self-confidence.
At the entrance to the city, the former were cattle, horses and other livestock, ordinary people carrying loads and goods, and the nobles who were sitting in horses, ox and carriages, stepped into the city gates in an orderly manner, and the soldiers on duty were watching every documentary and road guide in an orderly manner. Whether it was a nobleman or an ordinary person, it was no exception.
"What a Chang'an City!"
"What a Han Empire!" Tai Pan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The prosperity of the Han Empire can be seen from this. However, in the hundreds or thousands of years of war, the Hun Empire, which had been suppressing the Han Empire, was so powerful? Tai Pan's mind couldn't help but fly.
"Sir, please." At this time, the soldier also checked Taipan's documentary guide. After confirming that it was correct, the soldier looked at Taipan with a little more awe.
In the documentary, Tai Pan's identity is a study abroad scholar.
In the Han Empire, scholars and soldiers had relatively high status, and among scholars, there was no doubt that the existence of scholars who could study alone was the best among these scholars. In addition, many scholars who went to the Western Regions in the past few years, the soldiers looked at Tai Pan with a little awe, but that was all.
Although there was awe, there was no slight flattery.
