The city of the Day Clan stands on the bank of Bachuan River. Zhan Changfeng once painted a prosperous scene for it with a hundred schools of thought contending. However, as time has passed, it has always been wrapped in ice and fog, not showing a corner, as if it had never been built.
Behind the ice and fog in the sky, the city wall stood tall. Hua Jianci looked up at the top of the city wall hidden in the mist, his quiet gaze slowly downwards, falling on the old man's back.
The old man was calmly carving runes on the city wall, tirelessly, regardless of time, forgetting things. What he was doing was no longer defense, but a dialogue with Tao.
Shuo Yu's tall body was half-hidden in the mist. His eyes followed the old man's movement, his eyes were firm and rough, "We saved it once, and we can definitely do it this time."
"I hope so." Hua Jianci looked away. The "it" they wanted to protect was not only the city, but also Ling Weichu's way.
Originally, the new city was completely completed fifty-five years ago, and it was only for Ling Weichu to deploy rune defenses. At that time, the Day Clan actually did not intend to hide from the world, but wanted to use the new city to expand their power and consolidate the Day Clan's power in the wasteland.
status.
However, Ling Weichu entered the realm of asking while carving the talisman. "Asking" is the initial stage of enlightenment and a key part of the supernatural power and spiritual mirror. No one can tell in what way he will ask.
It took a long time, so in order to protect him, the Day Clan hid the new city and did not disturb him.
At that time, the Day Clan only had one True Lord, Ling Weichu. In this way, he was equivalent to having no fighting power. Moreover, the news of Zhan Changfeng's death had spread back to the Shanhai Realm. Some forces had no idea what the Day Clan was thinking.
Unable to suppress it any longer, frictions occurred frequently, and the Day Clan relied entirely on the relatively powerful life and death realms of Lian Wei, Yu Sheng, Wu Fei, Yu Huajian, Ci Shuo, Prison, and Zuo Zhuzhi.
It wasn't until the battle in front of the new city in the 43rd year that the Day people fought against Jingyao Liangqiu's Xuangu sect Fu Linmen and other combined forces on their own, and fought to the death of both sides. Only then did they get a brief period of peace. Yu Sheng took advantage of the quiet time
, quickly hid the Day Clan in the darkness, pretending to be indifferent to the world, and exchanged for decades of peace.
But this kind of peace gained by giving in can easily collapse.
Hua Jianci was worried that there would be another dispute and missed Ling Weichu's question. He was also worried that Ling Weichu's success in promotion to Lingjian would attract Tianjun to join the war.
"Let Zuo Zhuzhi stay here while you and I go back to Wangjun Mountain and discuss with Yu Sheng the specific preparations for the war."
"Wait a minute." Shuo Yu relaxed his expression and brought out a little smile in his words, "I met Jiang Jinjiu some time ago and invited him to come and live in the wilderness for a while. Today should be here soon."
"Jiang Jinjiu." Hua Jianci thought for a moment. In Datian World and her group, Jiang Jinjiu and her Shuo Jing often act together. They are quite in tune with each other and have become good friends. Therefore, even if they are not in the same world these years, they can still keep in touch.
Never stopped.
Jiang Jinjiu was no more ambitious than them. He had gained some fame in the big world, and with the help of his companions from the Exploration Group, he quickly made a name for himself and attracted the attention of Guangping Celestial Dynasty, who abandoned him.
With an olive branch, he accepted the position of school captain awarded by the Guangping Celestial Empire.
When things came to this point, it was really a matter of success. However, perhaps because of the great achievements of the Guangping Tianchao family, Jiang Jinjiu did not receive the attention he expected. After a few years of leisure, he resigned and left.
He returned to the Fengyun Realm, and the Nagasawa Dynasty, one of the three overlords of the Fengyun Realm, came to invite him again and again to worship him as the chief commander and to be in charge of a hundred thousand soldiers. He actually made some achievements, but when he became the true king of supernatural power
Later, he was suspected of being a highly accomplished person. After getting angry several times, he walked away again.
In the past few years, he has returned to his old profession and has been busy wandering around in secret places and dangerous places.
If Zhan Changfeng was still there and the country had been established, Hua Jianci would be sure to persuade him to come over, but now he is just an ordinary member of the Sun Clan, which has no attraction for him.
"A friend has come from afar. Let's entertain him well. Don't mention the trouble we are encountering now to him."
"nature."
The two waited for a while and then welcomed Jiang Jinjiu. Jiang Jinjiu's appearance remained unchanged. He was dressed in black and carried a long spear, looking wild and unruly.
When Jinjiu revisited his old place, he could not help but sigh. He looked at the place shrouded in ice and fog, "I remember she wanted to build a city here, right?"
"The city has been built, but for some reasons it cannot be seen. Let's go to Wangjun Mountain. I buried several jars of wine in the snow, and I just happened to take them out to taste today." Shuo Yu led the way.
Jiang Jin accepted the wine happily, but his heart was a little complicated. He had been in the Shanhai Realm for some time. Due to the fall of Zhan Changfeng, he didn't really want to come to this place again, but he didn't expect that Shuo Yu Hua Jian Ci
These people still stick to this place.
Especially for Hua Jianci, she made a great contribution by defeating the evil spirit king's conspiracy to seize luck in the King of Slaying Tournament. The Tiandao Alliance invited her to join the Zhiming Palace to supervise the war. Her future was bright, but she refused.
Jiang Jinjiu has no intention of exploring why she made this choice, but he just wonders why they stick to a young tribe that is difficult to support.
He considered it carefully and said, "Fellow Taoists, have you ever visited the outside world in recent years?"
"No, I haven't heard anything about the world for a while."
"How can I go out and train with my soldiers all day long?"
When Jiang was drinking, he heard the two people's replies, and a hint of worry surfaced, "I am waiting to be at the forefront of this generation of talents. If we don't go out and try our best, wouldn't we be living up to our talents? The past is over, so don't rest on your laurels."
Although he was saddened by Zhan Changfeng's unexpected death, as a Taoist, he had to go through mountains and rivers and look down on life and death.
"Fellow Taoist, you think we are being held back by the Day Clan?" Hua Jianci pointed out the meaning of his words straightforwardly, with an elegant expression, but without a hint of perfunctory.
What a difference."
She answered frankly and frankly, and her smile appeared again when she was about to drink. Yes, these are smart people who know what they are doing and what they want. He was abrupt.
Shuo Yu and Hua Jianci looked at each other. They knew why Jiang Jinjiu said this. They were never with the Zhou people, but Zhan Changfeng who had the potential to become a king and emperor. Their "Tao" required
Under the guidance and protection of the emperor, if Zhan Changfeng dies, they will not stay.
Shuo Yu will fulfill his second wish and find his hometown.
Huajian Ci will continue to live in seclusion, or find another prince or emperor who is pleasing to his eyes, enjoy the protection of the country's destiny, and understand the secrets of heaven.
Yu Sheng will let go and practice what he has in mind.
Lianwei will continue to accumulate power and open up his own financial path.
Wu Feiyu would hide and study her witchcraft quietly (no difference from now).
There is also Qin Shan in China, he will find the next emperor who can give him a glimpse of the fate of the heavens.
The Tao was originally a lonely road, but due to various reasons it collided with other Taos and merged together. This gave rise to a common belief, and then only the courage to exert the last effort for this common belief.
They gathered around Zhan Changfeng, perhaps because of their talent and character, but this only allowed them to become friends, and it was far from being able to make a group of talented and powerful people with their own ideas listen to her orders.
Unless I add three more words, loyal to the Tao.
They believed that Zhan Changfeng fit their ideal image of a prince and emperor, so they were willing to grow up with her.
When any emotion fades, the Tao pursued in the heart will not change easily. The Tao and its support are worth the harshest swords, winds and frosts in the world.
Similarly, once the Tao is different, even if they have been dependent on each other in life and death, they will not hesitate to use swords against each other.
