Capítulo 55: Shocking News

Lu Kingdom, Liangqiu Province, Liyang City…

At the north side of the city, where the Li river met with the Liangqiu Mountains, the five miles wide Li river gave up its three thousand miles’ raging and surging journey, becoming calm and gentle and even carrying the slight shyness and delicateness of a naive teenage girl. This more gentle Li river had carved out a thirty-miles wide lake near the Liangqiu Mountains. Lying between the mountains and the lake was a land of paradise.

A castle, which was three times bigger than Liyang City, stood within the paradise. Liyang City had a fifty foot tall, thirty-feet wide city wall built entirely from stone slabs. This castle had a seventy-two foot tall, forty foot wide city wall built entirely from granite.

Each side of the castle’s wall was four miles long. Within the castle were vast hills and stream and parks, and countless buildings were hidden among the luxuriant foliage.
