Shushan.

An ancient force located among the mountains existed before the Qin destroyed Bashu. For thousands of years, the Shushan clan has lived here and reproduced.

The mountains are green and beautiful, and the mountains are stretching. Just deep in the mountains of Bazhong, there is an open valley.

The environment here is beautiful, with wooden houses built in groups. Mountain people can be seen everywhere, and there is still a smile on their faces. The sound of gurgling streams flows down from the mountains in the distance, and a girl in a foreign costume is washing by the river.

As the white fibers, as thin feet as amber swing slightly in the water, the girl's head, the unique silver ornaments of the alien race, made a tingling sound between them, making a pleasant sound.

The girl's face was painted with colorful patterns, with a wild beauty in her elegance. She looked at the fish in the water, and suddenly smiled, wondering what she was thinking?

"Xiao Yu, the elder calls you."

"I understand!" The woman named Xiao Yu gently put on the show shoes she bought from the foot of the mountain, replied to the person who came, and headed towards the mountains in the distance.

The stretching mountain road is winding and quiet. There is only one road up the mountain, but there are many forks. If you are not familiar with the terrain here, you may easily get lost in this vast mountain.

Xiao Yu familiarly walked through the curves one by one and walked step by step into the mountains. The girl was very physically strong, and this long road seemed a bit too long for a strong adult man.

However, when the girl walked towards her final destination, under a huge red-leaf ancient tree located above the peak, she didn't even have a breath.

Under the ancient tree, a group of people had gathered with an old man in white as the center. With Xiao Yu's arrival, all the people the old man was going to gather had arrived.

The crutches in his hand were slightly leaning on the ground, looking at the men and women of the tribes in front of him, and said, "Today, I will summon all your Yu Yuan guards because of one thing. The prince of Qin led a army of 50,000, and had already passed the Taurus Road and was about to enter the Bazhong territory."

"What are they here for?"

A strong man asked in front of Xiao Yu.

"The purpose is obvious, it is for Shushan."

At the forefront of the team, Xiao Yu's brother Yu Ziqi said.

"That's right." The elder nodded in agreement with Yu Ziqi's statement.

"Before, the Empire sent envoys to us several times, but we didn't get a satisfactory answer from us. It seems that Qin Huang's patience has finally disappeared."

"They are too domineering. We just didn't agree to their surrender. They sent troops to attack us!"

"What are you afraid of? When will our Yu Yuan guards in Shushan be afraid of others?"

...

In Yu Yuan's guard, he was either insulting or disdainful...

The elder looked at the crowd of people, shook his head and said, "It's meaningless to discuss these things at this moment. The Emperor of Qin has been coveting the holy objects of our clan for a long time. This time, my Shushan is probably in trouble." The elder's face showed sorrow. It seemed that he was not sure that he could let Shushan pass through this fierce Qin army.

After listening to the elder's words, the scene suddenly became cold. Yu Ziqi asked, "How much power can we use now?"

"There are about 3,000 guards in Shushan, and the nearby mountain people who are willing to assist us are estimated to be more than 20,000," said the elder.

"Enough!" Yu Ziqi said firmly.

Looking at Yu Ziqi who was full of confidence, the elder asked, "Ziqi, what are you doing?"

Yu Ziqi smiled: "The Qin army swept the world without any opponents, which is indeed powerful. However, the situation in Bazhong is different. The mountains are dangerous and the people are tough. In addition, the nearby terrain is complex, and there are many forks and small roads. Even the local people are not very clear about it. I assert here that mountain combat is not the leader of the Qin army. Therefore, we should give full play to our advantages, harass them, attack them, and detour on the side, and avoid fighting head-on. Forcing the Qin army to retreat is the law."

Although Yu Ziqi lived in Shushan since childhood, he was always interested in military strategists. He is indeed very talented in this regard. As a general under Xiang Yu's command, his military talents have begun to appear now.

After Yu Ziqi said this, the elder nodded and agreed.

"But there is still a problem." Xiao Yu's crisp voice sounded, and everyone's eyes were focused on her.

This is the first time Xiao Yu has made a formal speech on such an important occasion. She is still a little embarrassed and said, "Yin Yang Family."

Everyone's attention was on Qin Jun just now, and after Xiao Yu reminded him, everyone suddenly realized it.

Yes! In addition to the Qin army, there is also a Yin-Yang family.

The Yin-Yang Family is a nightmare that lies above all the forces in the world. Their methods are cruel and their tricks are weird, making people unable to defend themselves.

What’s important is that they have become stronger and stronger over the years with the help of the power of the empire.

Among the hundreds of schools of thought, only the Yin and Yang family is the most troublesome thing for Shushan people. In a sense, the inheritances of the two families are very similar, and they are both inherited from the ancient King Chiyou, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they are of the same origin.

To outsiders, Shushan's witchcraft is mysterious and weird. But to Yin and Yang's eyes, it is a trick that can be solved easily.

This is still unfavorable for Shushan.

"We don't know how many people the Yin-Yang family has dispatched this time. The Yin-Yang family's left and right guardians, the five elders, Shushan is not without the ability to deal with it."

The white-haired old man looked at the ten Yu Yuan guards in the front, and even Yu Ziqi was not among them.

"You are all strong people from our clan. I'll give it to you this time to resist the Yin-Yang family's mission."

"We will definitely not let down the elder's expectations." All ten people said with kneeling on one knee.

The red fallen leaves were dancing, and Xiao Yu looked at the strongest Yu Yuan guard among the ten people in longingly. Looking at the other party's tough and handsome face, the girl's eyes were full of confidence and expectation.

"Okay, you guys go down and prepare! Practice well, accumulate energy, and deal with possible emergencies in the future." The elder said to the ten Yu Yuan guards.

"Yes, elder."

"Ziqi."

"Here!" Yu Ziqi reported to the hand.

"I will hand over all the command of the 3,000 guards in Shushan and more than 20,000 nearby mountain people. I will hand over the Qin army this time to you."

"Yes, elder."

The elder ordered things one by one, and everything was fine. Yu Yuan's guards also walked away one by one, and in the end, only Xiao Yu was left.

"Xiao Yu." The elder looked at the girl, his eyes full of pity.

"Grandpa Elder." Xiao Yu stepped forward and supported the old man and said respectfully.

The old man turned around, looked at the huge Fusang sacred tree, and said, "Xiao Yu, I have something I need to do."

"Grandpa Elder, am I not capable enough?" Xiao Yu said with some concern before the old man finished speaking.

"I know, you failed the last time. However, this is not your fault. Listen, what I want to say next is very important, you must keep it in your heart."

"Yes!" Xiao Yu nodded respectfully.

A long chirping appeared in the sky, and a three-legged golden crow flew from a distance and landed on the divine tree.

The two of them gave a gift to the three-legged golden crow, and the old man continued, "Once things fall into the worst situation, Xiao Yu, I hope you can leave here. Take the last seeds of our Shushan Mountain and leave here."

"What? Can Brother Luo and the others not resist the Qin army?" Xiao Yu said in surprise. The girl said that Brother Luo was the leader of the ten most powerful Yu Yuan guards.

"No, it's not enough." The old man shook his head, and he just knew how to cheer up his morale. The old man did not express his true thoughts.

That is, with the power of Shushan, it is far from enough to fight against the empire. The old man's knowledge is not comparable to these Yu Yuan guards who have never left the mountain.

He knew how big the world was. The Qin army swept the world, and the enemies of the empire fell one by one. Among them, there were many masters who were more powerful than the Yu Yuan guards of Shushan, and there were also many forces that were more powerful than Shushan.

Although Yu Ziqi's suggestions were correct, they could only delay for a while. The old man still had a simple understanding of the Qin Emperor who had never been masked. This is a person who will never give up until he achieves his goal.

And Shushan was just an insignificant blocker in front of his huge empire. For the Qin Emperor, it was even worse than the mantis.

The old man sighed and said, "Xiao Yu, you have to remember. In this world, some things are more important than life and are worthy of our whole life to persevere and protect."

"What is that?" asked the girl, her eyes full of confusion.

"For us Shushan, guarding the seal of Yuyuan is the greatest meaning of our existence. But for yourself? What is it? Only you will search for it yourself in the future." The old man touched the girl's head and said with a smile.

"You go down!"

The old man looked at the girl's distant figure and said, "Xiao Yu, the last hope of Shushan may fall on you."

...

"I'll go, what are you writing about?" Ying Ziyi looked at the food in the lacquer box placed on his desk and looked at Xiaohe in surprise.

Cockroaches, scorpions, centipedes. Can my food be more terrifying?

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, didn't you ask our sisters to find some local specialties for you?" Xiaohe said aggrievedly.

"Okay!" Ying Ziyi vaguely remembered that he seemed to have said these words before him. However, looking at the food placed in front of him, isn't this the only place in Bazhong Shu?

"No! We asked the locals and they said there are many specialties here. However, these are the most distinctive."

Under Xiaohe's service, Ying Ziyi barely ate a centipede. "Hey! It's quite delicious."

"Did I just say? We have tasted it before, and the food tastes really good." Xiaohe said proudly.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the members of the Yin-Yang family have arrived." Just as Ying Ziyi was having dinner, the personal guard outside the tent reported.

"Let them wait for me for the account."

Ying Ziyi smiled and said.
