A person came up to the main hall, a young man dressed as a scholar and elegant. This person was Zhou Shuyu, who was also the guide who accompanied Chu Bai to danger.
He was very polite. He first said hello to the emperor Xia Jingsheng, then to the elders of the Seventh Pavilion, and finally greeted Chu Bai with a smile.
The first impression this person gave people was that of a very kind, polite, and civilized gentleman. However, ever since he entered the hall, Chu Bai had a strange feeling.
That feeling was very strong. This Zhou Shuyu was obviously a polite young man and looked like a scholar, but Chu Bai just felt uncomfortable and even lurking in danger.
Chu Bai secretly became wary, but on the surface he still chatted with Zhou Shuyu for a few words.
After the banquet, according to Xia Jingsheng's order, the two of them were to leave for the Crescent Empire immediately, and someone would pick them up after arriving at the Crescent Empire.
"Master, I am waiting for your good news." Xia Jingsheng did a good job of saving face. He personally took Chu Bai to the outside of the palace with the elders of the Seven Pavilions, and watched Chu Bai and Zhou Shuyu go away.
Just after Chu Bai and Zhou Shuyu left, Xia Jingsheng returned to the main hall with the seven elders, three commanders and four generals, and continued to close the door.
"What do you think of this person?" Xia Jingsheng asked after everyone sat down.
The elder who was sitting at the head of the cabinet sneered and said: "He is just an outsider with unknown origins. If he can survive the crescent moon's rescue of Meng Gong and return safely..." When he said this,
The chief minister shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Forget it, he can't come back safely!"
Another pavilion elder also sighed: "Yes, the Crescent Moon Kingdom has pulled out the bait and is waiting for us to drill it. He also knows that we will definitely send people to drill it, so if we go there, we really can't come back."
"Then what if he really comes back? What should we do? Do we really want him to be one of the elders of our empire? Are you kidding me?" Someone else sneered.
"If he can really come back alive, then do we dare to keep him?" the chief minister asked rhetorically.
"Yes, if he can really return safely, it means that this person is unfathomable and will cause endless troubles in the future, so he must be eliminated."
"Forget it, let's not mention him. I'm afraid he also thought that we wanted him to submit a petition, but he didn't expect that this petition would not only cost other people's heads, but also his own." Xia Jingsheng said impatiently.
He waved his hand and said.
At the same time, Chu Bai and Zhou Shuyu left the capital and flew all the way north. The Crescent Empire was in the north, occupying half of the entire planet, with the Xia Dong River as the boundary in the middle.
The reason why it is called the Summer-Dong River is because this river is very peculiar. To the south of the river bank, it is like summer all year round, while to the north of the river bank, it is like winter all year round and is covered with ice for thousands of miles.
Zhou Shuyu is not a person who likes to chat. The two of them hardly talked along the way. Of course, Chu Bai flew with him because he didn't know the way.
However, just after the two of them flew for about an hour, suddenly, he and Zhou Shuyu frowned at the same time, because there was a person standing on the top of a mountain in front of them.
A person with two eyes, and the direction in which this person looks is also the direction in which the two of them are flying.
Zhou Shuyu and Chu Bai slowly stopped. They saw that the man was waiting for them, but they didn't know who he was or who he belonged to.
"Master Lin, I was entrusted by someone to give you this."
With a "whoosh" sound, as soon as the man in black robe finished speaking, a jade slip flew over and was caught by Chu Bai.
"Farewell, escape." When the man in black robe saw Chu Bai catching the jade slip, he suddenly escaped with his feet, and the whole person disappeared out of thin air, and escaped through the earth.
Chu Bai raised his eyebrows slightly. He did not expect that there was a master of earth escape in this outer world, but who was this person? Who was he entrusted by, and what news did he bring to him.
Zhou Shuyu never said a word from beginning to end, nor did he stop the contact between Chu Bai and the man in black robe. He just watched the scene indifferently.
Chu Bai played with the jade slip for a while, and after confirming that the jade slip did not prohibit the formation, he input his spiritual consciousness into it.
"Senior, I am Xia Tian. I'm sorry. Please leave here and don't get involved in the empire's disputes anymore. It was me who was abrupt and ill-considered about what happened to the elder before. Leave as soon as possible, otherwise your life will be in danger. Be careful with Zhou Shuyu. If you leave,
He stays away, my regards, Xia Tian."
"Xia Tian?" Chu Bai frowned slightly. He never expected that the prince of the Xia Dynasty would secretly send him a message. It seemed that he was sincere in thinking that he would join the cabinet before. Now he knows that he was betrayed by Xia Jingsheng and others.
He took advantage of it, so he came to tell him to leave, stop participating, and remind him to stay away from Zhou Shuyu?
"It seems that you and your father are completely two different people!" Chu Bai couldn't help but smile. In fact, the bullshit Xia Tian Empire and the bullshit Ge Lao are really not even bullshit in his eyes.
If he wants to destroy it, he can destroy it easily.
But after seeing the true face of Xia Jingsheng and others, he had new ideas. Didn't Li Pan just want to build an empire? Then weren't the two empires of Xinyue and Xia Tian already ready? As long as these two empires were destroyed,
After an empire united the Summer Star, Chu Lipan's Chu Dynasty would also take shape. Moreover, this planet was still extremely remote. No matter how big a movement it made, no one would necessarily pay attention. So, we took advantage of this opportunity to find out more about it.
After everything is done with the Crescent Empire and the Summer Empire, you can start to eliminate them.
Only now, the prince of the Summer Empire doesn’t seem so bad!
"Mr. Ge, let's keep going." When Zhou Shuyu saw that Chu Bai hadn't moved for a long time, he reminded him lightly.
"Oh, let's go." Chu Bai shrugged his shoulders and continued on his way.
At the same time, in the Black Pearl Tianji Star, Chu Lipan, Yang Zhen, Jin Juhua, Ji Mei, Yiyue, Zhou Ju, Mr. Chu, etc. were all analyzing the jade slip given to Chu Bai by the chief minister.
, a jade slip containing all the information about the Crescent Empire.
"There are only three on the ninth level and six on the eighth level. The others are all minions. After a few of us get out, we can destroy them. But the aftermath work will probably be very troublesome. We are outsiders after all.
If the Crescent Empire is destroyed at once and cannot be effectively integrated, the soldiers, civil servants, etc. will not listen to us. By then, the Crescent Empire will be destroyed, but there will only be civil strife." Yang Zhen said this.
When I was there, I turned to Mr. Chu. Although Mr. Chu had the lowest level of cultivation, he had managed the country and been a leader, so he was very experienced in these aspects.
When Mr. Chu saw the questioning looks from everyone, he smiled lightly and said: "I don't know how to govern a country, I only know how to fight, but it is okay to support puppets. This prince named Huo Su is a very good puppet.
"Mr. Chu Bai pointed to a prince mentioned in the jade slip. He is also the second son of the current Crescent Empire. He is not the prince or the direct heir.
"Our country has experienced many dynasties, so we have a lot of valuable experience to learn from. So what I mean is to first kill some people in the Crescent Empire in the name of the elder of the Summer Empire, and then support this Huosu Empire."
Once you ascend the throne, you can study the specific details."
"Haha, grandpa, you and I want to go together!" Chu Lipan laughed and said: "Yes, I also think that Huo Su is cute, uneducated and ignorant, he spends his time in debauchery, and wastes his time. He must be unwilling to do so.
But as long as we give him hope, the hope of becoming emperor, he will definitely go crazy. Then, according to what grandpa said, we will pretend to be the elders of the Summer Empire and assassinate the emperor, the prince, and some elders of the Crescent Empire.
Wait, there will be civil strife in the Crescent Empire, and we have surrendered to Huo Su, so we will quickly pacify the Crescent Empire in the name of Huo Su, and then Huosu will come to power and let him be the emperor for a few years before deposing him.
That’s it.”
"Well, let's just wait for Xiaobai's notification. This planet is not of much interest." Yang Zhen glanced at his mouth. To be honest, this planet is too small and there are no experts, so he doesn't have much fighting spirit.
.
Three hours later, Chu Bai and Zhou Shuyu have entered the realm of the Crescent Empire. This place is completely different from the south. There is white snow everywhere and the ground is frozen. Although it is not that extreme cold, it is still 30 or 40 degrees below zero.
Look.
"It's all ice and snow here, so what do ordinary people here eat? Isn't there no land to farm?" Chu Bai finally couldn't help but asked out of curiosity.
After Zhou Shuyu heard Chu Bai's words, he remained the same and replied calmly: "The south has the south's way of living, and the north has the north's way of living. Maybe you don't know, but here we have a strange kind of grain called
Snow rice, the cultivation of this kind of snow rice, must be as low as possible. In the past, we could still eat the sweet snow rice in the north, but after these years of war, the south can no longer eat it. Only the royal family occasionally eats it.
If you get enough, Xuemei can enhance your physique and strengthen your soul’s bloodline!”
"Is there such a kind of rice in the world? Food that grows in the snow?" Chu Bai smacked his lips. This time he had really learned a lot. The world of cultivation outside the world is really strange and different.
"Okay, let's wait until dark before leaving. We'll reach the Crescent City not far away. It's easier to enter after dark. We'll kill Duke Meng overnight!" Zhou Shuyu fell to the ground, and then sat cross-legged in the ice and snow.
.
And Chu Bai also stayed far away from him. He felt that Zhou Shuyu was very weird this time. Although there was no need to be afraid of him, he still felt an indescribable sense of danger, so it was better to stay away from him.
Of course, he also took advantage of this time to communicate with Yang Zhenlipan and others to study specific action plans.
Soon, darkness comes.
"Let's go, there is someone waiting for us in the capital. Meng Gong does not need to be saved, but only needs to be killed. Of course, he must hand over the secret information before killing."
"Wait a minute." Chu Bai did not stand up, but smiled and said: "You know that we will die if you go to New Moon, why do you still go?"
"Huh?" After hearing Chu Bai's words, Zhou Shuyu's eyebrows raised sharply, and at the same time he immediately narrowed his eyes, with a strong murderous intent exuding from his body.
"Who said we will die?" Zhou Shuyu said coldly.
"Isn't it?" Chu Bai asked back.
"You are thinking too much. The reason why His Majesty and the Elders chose you this time is because they don't know your details. But as long as you complete this task, you will gain the trust of His Majesty and the Elders. This is a good thing."
Every member who joins the Council of Elders must have this kind of certificate, so don’t think too much about it.”
"Oh, maybe I'm overthinking it? Let's go then." Chu Bai shrugged his shoulders indifferently and flew forward first.
The murderous intent in Zhou Shuyu's eyes flashed again, and then he all restrained himself and followed Chu Bai.
