The ocean divides the continent into nine pieces. The eight continents on the northwest and south sides are covered by ice, snow, yellow sand, and poisonous swamps. Only some animals and the indigenous people who lived here for their ancestors live.
These aboriginal people are very few in number and have not formed a national political system. They live together in the form of tribes. They are far away from human civilization, and some of them still live a life of eating hair and drinking blood.
The largest of the nine continents is located in the east, called the Sun Continent. It has abundant sunshine, abundant rain, and four seasons throughout the year. The good natural conditions allow humans and orcs here to live a prosperous life, and human civilization can be born and developed here.
Compared with the earth, this place is still stuck in the feudal era. Seven kingdoms have been established on the mainland, named "Qin", "Qi", "Chu", "Yan", "Han", "Zhao", and "Wei". ".
The seven kingdoms stood side by side and ruled the roost, constantly killing each other. Three hundred years ago, the general of the State of Zhao, Jin Yuan, rebelled with his troops, changed the country's name to Jin, and annexed the neighboring Han and Wei Dynasties, temporarily ruling the mainland.
One hundred and fifty years ago, the Qi army sent troops northward to destroy Yan. Later, they fought with Jin and were destroyed by Jin.
The people of Qin in the West were ruthless, and they used multiple orc generals. Their combat power was unparalleled. A hundred years ago, they raised hundreds of thousands of troops to destroy Chu. From that day on, the two heroes of Jin and Qin stood side by side on the mainland.
Among them, Jin was wealthy, Qin's army was fierce, and each was good at winning. The two countries had been at war for hundreds of years, winning and losing each other, but they could never annex each other.
Fifty years ago, the current kings of the two countries felt that the people's lives were suffering due to continuous wars, so they made an alliance in Suicheng, agreeing that the two countries would always be reconciled and there would be no war.
Since then, the Sun Continent has finally ushered in decades of peace.
The fighting ceased and the culture was revived.
Calligraphy, painting, poetry, singing, dancing, drama, etc., have all developed greatly during this period. Looking at the northern and southern borders, there are more elegant and singing people, but there are fewer heroic heroes with generous and tragic songs.
It¡¯s so hot in August.
The scorching sunshine hits the earth unreservedly, and the fields are covered with cracks. From a distance, they look like pieces of tortoise shells. When people walk on the loess, they bring up streaks of smoke and dust, which mix with sweat and immediately turn into a With clumps of mud and water, it doesn't take long for a person to turn into a mud monkey.
The white woods on both sides of the official road could not withstand such a scorching sun. Rays of sunlight filtered through the trees and walked to the side of Zhu's father and son, hugging Zhu Ying's fists.
"This old hero doesn't need to blame the noble master. What does my sister do?? That one is very vulgar. No wonder the noble master laughs. Hehe, I am just a down-and-out person, and I am not a dragon or a tiger. Ah."
Zhu Ying was shocked. His table was probably not more than two meters away from the boy's table. Just now, he had only whispered a lesson to his son, but he heard what he said clearly. Only with this hearing ability , no longer inferior to the first-class players in the world.
He was an old man in the world of martial arts. Although he was shocked, he did not show any emotion at all. He stood up with a smile and said, "This young master is here to invite you. The young master is hiding his secrets. I guess he is a famous master in the martial arts world? Little old man." My surname is Zhu Mingying, haven¡¯t you asked me about your surname?¡±
As he spoke, he secretly looked at the young man in front of him.
Who would have thought that with Zhu Ying's knowledge and experience, he would not be able to tell the origin of the other party at all, and he couldn't help but be even more surprised, thinking to himself: "This young man's temples are average, and there is no light flowing in his eyes. Could it be that he has actually reached the highest level of the divine ritual?" No? But he is so young, when did such a young master appear in the world? Not to mention the underworld, even among the white sects, there seems to be no such young hero."
The young man in front of him smiled and said: "You old heroes are joking. I am just a young man who is in trouble in the world. What kind of young man is he? The boy's surname is Ren Ming Xiaosheng. He was born in the countryside. He has only learned a few country fists and kicks, which he hides. That describes a master in the arena, and a kid really doesn¡¯t dare to be one.¡±
Zhu Ying secretly laughed in his heart: "Have you only learned country boxing? I'm afraid you may not be able to do that?"
However, he did not feel dissatisfied when people in the world only spoke a few words when they met; what's more, judging from his many years of experience in the world, although the young man in front of him seemed to be cunning, there was a hint of uprightness and calmness between his eyebrows. He's angry, he's definitely not a gangster.
With a calculation in his mind, Zhu Ying smiled and said: "It turns out that Ren Shaoxia has a family background, so it's no wonder. Otherwise, at such a young age, how could he have such cultivation? Young Master, please sit down quickly."
The student chuckled to himself: "You have good eyesight, but you were wrong when you said I was young. Speaking of my age, I can be your grandfather."
He was sneering in his belly, but his face was filled with respect.After sitting down, Yan Yan added: "I just heard the owner of the tea shop call senior the chief escort. Could it be that senior is the escort this time?"
Since Zhu Ying was sure that he would not be a good friend on the road, he naturally became a little wary. Hearing this, he smiled and nodded and said, "Isn't that true? The little old man eats knife-edge food. Since there is business coming to the door, there is nothing to say. I have to walk on this hot day."
The young student asked again: "I wonder where the senior will take this escort?"
Zhu Ying smiled and said: "It is Lujing, the capital of our Jin Kingdom."
Xiaosheng's eyes lit up: "That would be great. My little sister and I are also determined to go to the capital to broaden our horizons, but we are not familiar with the road to the capital. I wonder if we can go with the seniors? Haha, yes, yes With the old hero and the young hero together, I don¡¯t have to worry about meeting thieves.¡±
Zhu Ying just smiled at such compliments, but Zhu Wen felt happy when he heard it. This was the first time since he was born that he was praised as a "young hero". He immediately felt very fond of Xiao Sheng, and the more he looked at him, the more he looked at him. The more pleasing to the eye.
??????????????????????????????????????????"What's not right? We can all go together. My father often said that we are all brothers in the world, and loyalty to friends in the world should come first."
Zhu Ying was cautious, and this escort trip was very important. He was still a little hesitant, but Zhu Wen agreed first, so he couldn't refuse.
"Forget it, since Mr. Ren won't give up, let's go on the road together. Mr. Ren, we are companions now, please invite your sister to come and eat at the same table. How old is the little old man like you? This meal will be served by How about I be the host?¡±
Xiaosheng was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Lu Ying and invited Lu Ying to come over and eat at the same table with the father and son.
It turns out that after he and Lu Ying arrived in the Nine Gods Realm, they never heard any news about Xie Wufeng's actions.
"It is impossible for Xie Wufeng to do such a big thing silently. They don't have any clues. There is only one explanation, that is, Xie Wufeng has not taken action yet."
Although the Patriarch of Wanxiang has drawn up a plan, everything must be moved according to the movement of the evil wind.
Xiaosheng had already known from the Patriarch of Wanxiang that with Xie Wufeng's nature, he would inevitably choose the Jin Kingdom, the richest and most powerful country in the Nine Gods Realm, to take action. However, at this time, Xie Wufeng was dormant and could not make a move. Therefore, this For a while, I could only wander around the Jin Kingdom and get news.
He was about to go to the capital of Jin State, but by chance he met Zhu Ying and his son in this small tea shed.
In order to search for the map key, Xiaosheng traveled almost across most of the universe. He had seen so many civilizations and worlds, so he was no stranger to the escort bureau. He knew that the escorts were knowledgeable and well-informed, so he took action. In order to travel with Zhu Ying, I might be able to get some useful news from Zhu Ying and his son.
The three of them were drinking and talking. How experienced is Xiaosheng? Compared to him, Zhu Ying was just a primary school student. The young student casually recounted a few strange things he had encountered in the universe, and Zhu Ying was impressed by them.
As for Zhu Wen, who has a romantic nature, and Xiao Sheng, who was once known as the number one dog boy in the Paradise Continent, they met very late. The two danced in a romantic way, and Xiao Sheng casually picked up a few sentences: "Don't you see me, the Yellow River is here." The water comes up from the sky", "Do you know? Do you know? It should be green, fat, red and thin" and other good sentences learned from the earth, which made Zhu Wen fall to the ground in admiration.
¡°If I hadn¡¯t been worried about my father being around, I would have long ago said that I would light incense and candles with Xiaosheng and sworn sworn brothers as brothers of life and death.
Compared to the three people who were talking loudly, Lu Ying was extremely quiet, just lowering her head and fighting for her life with the steamed bun sauce on the table.
"It's strange to say that her skills are getting higher and higher now. Normally she doesn't need fireworks food, but as long as she sees pasta and meat, she can't control herself and eats them endlessly.
Seeing that the sun had moved from the sky and the weather was much cooler, Zhu Ying and others set off and gave up a horse for Xiaosheng and Lu Ying to ride. The group did not enter Liuhe Town, but turned all the way north. Go and head straight towards Lucheng, the capital.
It was only time for a cup of tea, and before we rounded Liuhe Town, we suddenly saw several horses rushing towards us from behind. The knights on the horses seemed to be in a hurry, and without even looking at the escort, they started to mount up. The whip passed over the people in the escort office and went straight to the north.
Zhu Wen was choked by the dust they brought up and coughed. He couldn't help but cursed: "Vulgar things, vulgar things, what a rude person! How unreasonable."
Xiaosheng just smiled after hearing this and thought to himself: "This third young master has no real ability, but he has a very bad temper. If he walks alone in the world, won't he be beaten into a pig's head?"
Zhu Ying glared at Zhu Wen and said: "How many times have I told you, the most important thing for us escorts is to make more friends and fewer enemies, otherwise you will be the best in the world in martial arts and you will not be able to move forward. If you keep talking like this, Block it, just for fear ofIf I can't get to the capital, I'll be in a lot of trouble. "
Zhu Wen was dissatisfied and argued: "They are the ones who are rude??" Halfway through, he suddenly stopped talking and saw the knights turning around on their horses and turning towards him.
Zhu Ying was stunned for a moment, feeling angry in his heart.
¡°I just used the topic to teach my son a lesson. In fact, it turned out that these knights didn¡¯t understand the rules and were too rude. Unexpectedly, they turned around and came, apparently intent on launching an attack.
Zhu Ying couldn't help but sneer, he was patient and tolerant when things happened, but he wasn't really afraid of anyone. If these people push too hard, they will have no choice but to fight.
Those knights saw a middle-aged man in gray clothes and purple face approaching, and he laughed loudly and said: "May I ask, the chief bodyguard of your bureau, are Zhu Ying and brothers here? "
Zhu Ying saw that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before. He couldn't help but hesitated and asked: "I am Zhu Ying, who is your Excellency?"
The middle-aged man chuckled and said, "Have you forgotten your little brother after not seeing each other for more than 20 years? Have you forgotten your old friend who fought alongside you during the Battle of Lushui?"
Zhu Ying was reminded by his words and suddenly realized. He slapped his forehead and said: "Oh my, I am so old and confused. I forgot about Pei Yuan. Haha, you were only a young man in his twenties back then, but now you are too old." ¡±
"Aren't you getting old?" Pei Yuan said with a smile: "It's a coincidence that I met my old brother here. Now that my old brother is here, I don't have to run hundreds of miles to ask for help. .¡±
"Please help?" Zhu Ying was stunned and said, "What? Could it be that Brother Pei can encounter some kind of trouble in this little Liuhe Town?"
Pei Yuan was originally a tycoon in the underworld, and he was also a well-known figure in the gang. When Li Kiln was established in Xishan, it was a piece of the local sky.
More than 20 years ago, Zhu Ying escorted his escort to the Lushui River 300 miles away from Xishan. He was stopped by the three brothers of the Ni family, who were famous water thieves in Lushui. Not following the rules of the world, no matter how humbly Zhu Ying discussed it, he was still determined to rob the escort.
Zhu Ying had no choice but to take action, but in the end he lost his hand because he was outnumbered.
Zhu Ying was well-known in the world and had met Pei Yuan for a while, so he immediately found Xishan Village. Pei Yuan was furious when he heard this. Firstly, he wanted to teach the Ni brothers that they should not reach out to the land to ask for food. Secondly, he could not disgrace Zhu Ying, so he immediately led his troops and Zhu Ying to seek out the bad luck of the Ni brothers.
After the first battle, he killed Boss Ni and his second son and destroyed their water stronghold. Speaking of which, Zhu Ying actually owed him a favor.
"It's just that Zhu Ying couldn't figure it out for a moment. With Pei Yuan's status in the world, what role could he have in Liuhe Town that would make him so nervous that he would go hundreds of miles away to ask for reinforcements? That's why he asked.
Pei Yuan smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know something. It's not that I'm in any trouble myself. I'm just standing up for someone else this time. Unfortunately, the enemy is a difficult one."
Zhu Ying frowned and said, "Who could that be? How could he be so difficult to deal with?" The person who can give Pei Yuan a headache must be a top-notch player in the world, and Zhu Ying couldn't help but feel moved.
"In the middle of the night, passers-by cry under the cold lights, and for hundreds of miles there are graves everywhere."
Pei Yuan shook his head and slowly chanted a song: "This is the master."
"Isn't it him?" Pei Yuan said with a sad smile: "Now I should know why I traveled hundreds of miles to ask for help?"
"For decades, Gudeng Jian Doucheng has been an undefeated legend in the world." Zhu Ying took a breath: "I heard that this man was taught by a stranger and was good at the art of refining Qi. He could fly with a sword for hundreds of years. You can kill people with flying swords from anywhere, dozens of miles away. Such a person is no longer invincible to mortal bodies like you and me. Brother, who is that friend of yours? How did you get into trouble with him?"
Pei Yuan sighed: "It's a long story, brother, how about we go to my friend's house to talk about it?"
Zhu Ying couldn't help but hesitate. People in the escort agency were most afraid of getting involved in feuds. If he agreed to Pei Yuan and went to his friend's house, it would be difficult to stay out of it. But if he didn't agree, wouldn't he lose Pei Yuan's face? I was in a dilemma for a while and kept silent.
While he was hesitating, the eldest young masters Zhu Wen and Zhu were the first to say, "Dad, what else do you have in mind? Since Uncle Pei is in trouble, loyalty comes first among us in the world, so we naturally have to step forward."
His martial arts skills are not worth mentioning, but he is a good person. He has been feeling depressed along the way. Now that he has seen the excitement, how can he let it go?
Pei Yuan laughed loudly when he heard this, raised his thumb and said: "Brothers, this is your son, he is indeed a young hero, he is so good. Brother, let's set off now, haha, This time, with the help of my elder brother, our chances of winning are even better."
When Zhu Wen was praised, he had a proud expression on his face and whispered: "Dad, I didn't embarrass you this time? You taught me that loyalty comes first among friends in the world, and you have taught me to go out of your way to protect your friends."
Zhu Ying sighed secretly and didn't bother to pay attention to him. He turned around and said to Xiaosheng: "Young Master Ren, I'm afraid you have heard it. Now my friend is in trouble. I have no choice but to draw my sword to help. I'm afraid I can't accompany the young hero brother and sister to Lu." It¡¯s Beijing, let¡¯s just say goodbye.¡±
Xiaosheng smiled and said: "What did the old hero say? Since you and I are already companions, your friends are also my friends. Since we are friends and there is trouble, there is no reason to just leave. Hehe, this The dirty boy is dripping."
Zhu Ying hurriedly said: "Young hero, please don't be impulsive. That Gudeng Jian Doucheng is a Qi refiner. He is good at killing people with flying swords. He has never suffered a defeat since his debut. Young hero?"
Xiao Sheng sneered: "Is he a Qi Refiner? Then he needs to be experienced."
As he said this, Xiaosheng thought in his heart: "If you can kill someone dozens of miles away with a sword, does that count you as a Qi-refining person? Has the Nine Gods back then really become so bad?
If that old coquettish Fucha was here, I really don¡¯t know what to think.
"Forget it, I know this Gudengjian. If I can contact the Nine Gods back then, I might be able to get some news about Xie Wufeng from them."
Zhu Ying couldn't help but feel secretly happy when he heard what he said.
He had long seen that Xiaosheng was extraordinary, but he still couldn't figure out what Xiaosheng's skills and cultivation were. Now that he saw that he had no fear of the famous Gudeng Jian Doucheng, he thought he was definitely not mediocre. With the help of such a master, he could It's a good thing that can't be wished for.
Zhu Ying immediately introduced Xiaosheng¡¯s ¡°brother and sister¡± to Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan didn't look very excited. He just said a few words of gratitude and led everyone to turn their horses and head towards Liuhe Town.
It was nearly noon, and the sun was high in the sky.
Waves of heat waves fell from the sky and swept across the earth.
In such a high temperature, people can sweat all over even if they sit still. God really doesn¡¯t want people to live.
A four-wheeled carriage swayed up the official road under the scorching sun and gradually approached the west gate of Liuhe Town.
The driver was a young man about twenty years old, with handsome features and a thin figure.
In such a hot day, he was actually wearing a royal blue gown and a blue turban on his head, but there was not a drop of sweat on his face, and he did not look like an authentic driver.
The young man looked up at the official road ahead, and suddenly stopped his horse, with a trace of doubt on his face.
A clear and melodious voice with a hint of laziness came from the carriage: "Little bandit, why don't you leave? Are you chasing me?"
The bamboo curtain was lifted, and a young man poked his head out of the carriage.
Good talents.
No one would have imagined that the young man in the car was such a handsome man.
She has bright eyes and white teeth, and black hair like lacquer. The shiny black hair is neatly combed and covered under a crown with gold wire and countless pearls embedded in it. A green jade hairpin passes through the crown. The waves flowed, making his jade face even more shiny and beautiful.
He was wearing a bright yellow silk shirt. Although the clothes were light and breathable, there was still sweat on his forehead in this hot day. It was not as calm as the little bandit driving the car.
At this time, while gently fanning the wind with the folding fan in his hand, he said with some doubts: "Is it true that I have lost you?"
??The little Kouzi blushed, turned around and replied: "Sir, the horseshoe prints of SF Escort have been broken since then, I'm afraid they entered Liuhe Town??"
The young man turned his head and looked in the direction of Liuhe Town. Although Liuhe Town is not big, it is very prosperous. The roads in the town are all paved with bluestones. Even a hundred meters outside the town gate are also paved with bluestones.
A horse walking on such a road will naturally leave no hoof prints.
After thinking for a while, he nodded and said: "It seems to be right. My mother, the old man named Zhu has gone crazy. What is he doing in the town if he doesn't leave a good escort?"
"Little bandit, could it be that I, the young master, entrusted me with a wrongdoing and misjudged this old guy?"
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out out ofName, based on a small estimate, he abandoned the serious escort route and suddenly turned to the town, probably for other reasons. How about we summon the people from Jinning Iron Spy to ask? "
The young man thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, you can immediately send a message three hundred miles away to summon the masters of Jinning's iron spies to gather here. I and you will go into the town first to investigate.
"Hehe, I've long heard people say that there are many beauties in the south. I think this Liuhe Town is pretty. I guess there are a lot of beauties. I need to see them first."
"Little Kouzi laughed dryly with him, but his heart was beating secretly.
"This young master is good at everything, but his obsession with beauty is bad. God bless him, please don't cause any trouble this time. It would be better if he misses something important."
