Chapter 178 The Peculiarity of the Wall of Bizhou Prefecture
"Grandpa, is that Bizhou Prefecture?" Liu Xiaoxiao looked at the high stone wall in front of her, her mouth almost pouting.
Zhufu also looked at the strange wall and replied, "Yes, that's Bizhou Prefecture. I've heard people say before that the walls of Bizhou Prefecture are like this, all made of stone."
"But how could they have such a high and large stone wall to build a wall? This must be fake! How could anyone lift such a heavy stone, let alone use it to build a city wall?" Liu Xiaoxiao asked doubtfully.
Zhufu had also thought about this doubt, and later a local businessman in Bizhou Prefecture answered his question.
"Actually, the stone wall area at the city gate was originally a natural stone wall. Later, the first prefect here ordered people to carve it into the shape of a city wall. This is how the stone wall you see today became what it is today."
Liu Xiaoxiao was surprised and said, "Carving out a city wall from a piece of stone? That's too difficult! How long will it take to complete?"
Zhufu said, "It took quite a while. I heard from a local businessman that it took about five years to perfect the basic cone shape."
Liu Xiaoxiao sighed, "It took five years just to build a city wall. That prefect really has a lot of patience!"
Zhufu said, "Isn't it? I heard that the wall behind it played a big role!"
Liu Xiaoxiao asked, "Did a major battle take place here?
But this isn't the border! How could a war break out?!"
Zhufu explained: "It wasn't a war, it was a tsunami."
When Liu Xiaoxiao heard that it was a tsunami, she asked excitedly, "Grandpa, if there is a tsunami, then this place must be very close to the sea! But why didn't I see it?"
Zhufu smiled and said, "We should be on the back of the sea right now, so you can't see us."
Liu Xiaoxiao wondered, "If there can be a tsunami on the other side of the ocean, how huge must the waves have been?"
Zhufu shook his head and said, "I don't know about that. I just heard that the death toll from the tsunami was over 100,000. Many towns and villages below Bizhou Prefecture were submerged."
"Then the city wall must have been flooded as well, right?" Liu Xiaoxiao asked nervously.
"Not really. It is said that the city wall blocked most of the sea water back then, and the casualties in Bizhou Prefecture were not great." Zhufu recalled.
"Wow, this city wall is so powerful!" Liu Xiaoxiao exclaimed, "What happened to the people in the city later?"
"I heard that after the tsunami, the people in the city rebuilt their homes together. And because of the protection of this city wall, Bizhou Prefecture has slowly developed into a prosperous big city." A hint of envy flashed in Zhufu's eyes.
"I really want to go in and take a look." Liu Xiaoxiao looked at the city gate expectantly.
"Let's go into the city." Zhufu took Liu Xiaoxiao's hand and walked towards the city gate with Liu Yingcai and others.
"Stop, what are you all doing? What are you doing in the city?"
As soon as they reached the city gate, they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the city.
Seeing this, Liu Yingxiong knew it was his turn, so he immediately leaned on his crutch, which didn't look like a crutch, and took two steps closer.
He explained with a smile, "Sir, we are originally from Camellia Town. We relocated due to the drought there. Unfortunately, things don't always go as planned. We've been in such a difficult situation, yet there are still those heartless bandits who want to rob us. In the end, they were injured in the leg by our homemade bows and arrows, and they couldn't escape. So, we came into the city to hand them over to the authorities."
