Volume 3 Qi Guo Chapter 23 Beauty is only the surface
The news of the surrender of the Qi State spread among the six countries, and the people of the Yan State finally ushered in the long-lost joy. It was a feeling that had been suppressed for a long time and was finally released. People come out of the house, no longer repressed, and let their emotions unleash to their heart's content. King Jiang, who was in the palace of the king of Wangcheng, repeatedly confirmed to Ma Shuheng, Ma Shuheng nodded very affirmatively every time, and the old face of King Jiang, who was nearly seventy years old, was also filled with tears. Jiang Mengsheng and Fu Qinggu hugged each other, and asked Yan Che about his safety together as soon as possible, and when the two spoke in unison, they looked at each other embarrassedly. The soldiers of the Yan Kingdom who were still on the battlefield at that time still didn't believe it, they hadn't made contact with the other party at all, and the horn of victory had already sounded. And Qi Guo is not in despair, it seems to be a relief for them. Years of war haunted them like nightmares, and now they can finally wake up from nightmares. The ministers of Qi did not elect another king to fight, after all, millions of lions were defeated, and the original royal family had almost been killed by Jin Shijie, even though Jin Shijie had concubines, but none of them had heirs. The son of Mrs. Jin, who is far away in Yancheng, is considered a distant relative, and Jin Zhen is considered to be Jin Shijie's uncle, and the throne should be inherited by his son, but Mrs. Jin gave up the fight for the throne after Xiaojia Village, and she wants to compensate for her son's childhood. No one wants to give the country to a seven-year-old child. Therefore, the Qi State, which has no leader, can only wait for the king of the Yan State to come over and rule and declare the Qi State to become their territory.
King Qi was not given death, Princess Mengsheng was still kind-hearted, she demoted King Qi to a commoner, so that he could truly understand the hardships of the people's livelihood and know that no one has a winner in the war. When King Qi was expelled from the city, thousands of people in Pei'an City were empty, and they gathered around the intersection and threw vegetable leaves at him. Jin Shijie knew that even if Mengsheng didn't want his life, there were still many people in this world who wanted to kill him. What kind of life will he spend next, he even laughed when he thought about it. The Golden Six Saints were also released, and the first thing they did when they left the city was to find King Qi, even though the seven of them had not yet made arrangements for the future, but they were all people who could no longer integrate into society.
When Yan Che came to the Pei'an Royal City, all the ministers of the Qi Kingdom were already waiting there, and the soldiers on the steps all knelt down and surrendered. Yan Che and his retinue slowly walked up to the palace, and Yan Che sat on the throne. All the people knelt in submission. Maybe it's not because of surrender, it's because of fear, so afraid that the demons walk in front of their eyes, and many people don't dare to raise their heads to take a look.
After watching Yan Che enter the city, people's expressions became solemn.
They are not human. Strange bodies, bloody eyes, and a look of contempt for humans, as if the eyes of a human being would be snatched away at the first glance. It turned out that it was not the former Jiang Country's Slashing Iron Yan Qinghou who defeated them, but the legendary demon. The people of the city all knelt down to welcome the arrival of the Demon King, and a child raised his head, and he saw that the young man led by him did not seem to be very scary. His mother saw his child raise her head and immediately pressed the child's head down for fear that the demon would see it.
After the demon entered the palace, some of the soldiers who had returned home chatted in the restaurant in the city. When the people in the restaurant heard what they were talking about on the battlefield, they gathered around, and even the shopkeeper gave the soldiers free drinks because they were curious about the demon man they had never met in a hundred years. Of course, I don't dare to collect money, after all, everyone is a Jiang Guo who was once bullied by Qi Guo, and now they have been changed by the demon clan and turned over to become the master, maybe they will start killing if they lose their temper.
Soldier A said: "I was the survivor of the Vanguard Force, which had 50,000 people at that time, and suddenly half of them were killed by a meteorite that fell from the sky. Hearing the sighs of this crowd, I couldn't imagine that the demon man was so terrifying, even something outside the sky could be summoned. The soldier continued: "At that time, the drunken of the Golden Six Saints and the Dharma Ci of the Great Compassion Temple summoned the golden Buddha statue, and I hid under the Buddha statue with some surviving people. At that time, two female dolls came over, they seemed weak, but they couldn't judge people by their appearance. One of the two witches transforms into a giant tree man, as tall as the Buddha statue. Then branches and vines grew on the tree man's body and entangled the Buddha statue, and the Buddha statue could not move. The abbot smashed the vines with the Buddha's light, and then countless palms slapped towards the tree man. The Treant also blocked the attack with countless growing branches. The drunken jumped down from the Buddha statue and tried to attack the lower body of the tree man. At that time, there was a demon who could gush out the sea, and the ground was full of seawater. When he jumped into the water drunk, a demon emerged from the water and entangled with him. The Majin resembled a sea beast, with a sharp beak and fangs, and skin like a fish, like a shark in the sea. The drunk held a long stick in his hand and played a set of stick techniques, but the stick was directly bitten off by the demon. Drunk and seeing that the weapon was destroyed, he turned to hand-to-hand combat, he used the golden body of the Arhat to confront the demon, and did not want his defense to do nothing in front of the demon, and the demon smashed his golden body with a punch, and he sank into the sea without floating. Although the sea water was only half a body deep, it was extremely strange, and some soldiers who were immersed in the sea water said that they felt as if they had fallen into a bottomless abyss, unable to break free from the water, and finally drowned in the sea. ”
"Indeed," said Soldier B, "I was in the shallow part of the water, and it took a great deal of effort to get out of the water. The water is like a man-eating swamp that makes people fall into it. I crawled out of the water, it was like picking up a life. Looking up, in the distance behind him was the Red Fang of the Golden Six Saints, and he was also riding an ancient murderer gluttony. ”
"Isn't Tao Tao the mount of the orcs, why does the Qi army also have it?" the crowd asked.
"Don't forget, the Red Tooth of the Golden Six Saints has the blood of an orc, and it is not surprising that he can obtain gluttony from the Hundred Beast Country. It is rumored that one gluttony can eat 100 people a day, and it is an insatiable and brutal beast. I thought that after gluttony, our army would be greatly strengthened, and I didn't want the other party to have a demonic beast. The monster was originally in the form of a demon, and suddenly transformed into a wolf bigger than gluttony, with blue pupils and lush hair. Warcraft and gluttony are torn together, like a wolf biting a dog, and gluttony is at a disadvantage. No matter how hoarse the gluttony is, it can't hurt the monster a single point. The weakness of the gluttony was the eyes on the arm, and the monster grabbed one of the eyes with one claw, and the gluttony suddenly lost his strength. In the end, it was dismantled by Warcraft. ”
Everyone was amazed, and they didn't know which demon the beast was, and Soldier B continued, "It's not over yet. After Gluttony fell, Red Fang continued to fight the beast. The monster turned into a human form again, and when the monster turned into a human form, Red Fang ran to eat a mouthful of gluttonous meat! The gluttonous meat was untouchable to mortals, and the blood was thick and green and emitted a foul smell. Red Tooth ate gluttony, gained the power of gluttony, and became like gluttony himself. However, the demon was so fast in his human form that I couldn't even see him with my naked eyes and knocked Red Fang to the ground with one punch. Red Fang didn't even have a chance to make a move, and was defeated by a move. “
"What is even more spectacular should be the duel between the head of the Yin-Yang Sect and an old man of the Demon Realm. Soldier A then added that the group had not yet detached themselves from the other person's description and were drawn to the soldier's words.
"The Yin-Yang Sect is also a great cultivation faction, and there is a disciple under the sect, Huang Qiying, who is the head of the Golden Six Sages. At that time, the soul master used the fallen soldiers to summon tens of thousands of undead zombies, and the old man of the demon world summoned tens of thousands of skeletons from the ground, and the battle situation was simply a ghost crying wolf. The undead armies on both sides thought they were in a state of anxiety, but the old man demon actually put armor on the skeleton army. The Soul Master's zombie legion did no damage to the armored skeletons, and the zombies couldn't move after being cut to pieces. Seeing that the situation was not good, the soul master jumped on top of the umbrella full of skeletons and stood on one foot. Then he cast a spell, and although he couldn't see any changes on the field, it was obvious that something was gathering and couldn't be seen with the naked eye. In the middle of the battlefield, there seemed to be a huge person standing, and a dark wind suddenly blew on the sand, and the sound of ghosts crying everywhere. And the demon seemed to have summoned some invisible spirit, and the battle broke out between the two spirits in the middle of the battlefield. The last gust of wind whipped up, the sand and dust flew, and the Soul Master's zombie army all fell, and the Soul Master also fell from the umbrella, spitting blood from his mouth and dying. “
"Alas, these demons are simply strong and terrifying, the strongest people in a country can't resist a few moves, how do you say the previous human race defeated the demon race?"
"You don't want to die, if the demons hear it, we won't even have a corpse. “
When it came to this, everyone was silent. When I think of being in the company of demons in the future, life and death are unknown. The soldier had no choice but to play a round and said: "Okay, don't talk about it, it's a blessing that the demons didn't want our lives, all the soldiers have been disarmed and returned to the field, and they can get some pensions after retirement, which is good." The other soldiers also left the tavern one after another, they knew that they didn't have to go to the soup for one person in the future, the entire country's army was taken over by the Yan State, and the lifeblood of the country was also in the hands of the demons. When people take up arms, they are afraid that they will die in battle, and after losing their weapons, there is no room for resistance, and even though everyone is completely home, no one has a smile on their faces.
The Golden Six Saints were all captured, but Yan Che did not imprison them. He said that if you want to leave, you can leave at any time, and if you want to stay, you must obey the management. None of the six people remained, and all left. It is estimated that they have gone to find the exiled King Qi.
Yan Che was in the royal palace of Pei'an City, sitting on the throne, and saw everyone bow their heads in fear. He's used to that kind of look, and sometimes it's not unpleasant to be misunderstood. The current situation in this country has been bought back at the cost of tens of thousands of lives, and their mood is by no means relaxed, or sad, or angry, or confused. But life doesn't stop playing because of any vignette. Yan Che wanted to understand the country, and he asked the people on his knees, except for King Qi, who knew the country best.
No one dared to answer.
Yan Che pointed to one of the officials and asked him to answer the question, and the official said tremblingly: "Originally, Prime Minister He knew the national situation best, but after the defeat of the Qi State, he hanged himself in the mansion. We only know one or two. ”
"It's a pity, this Prime Minister He is a brave person, but it's a pity that he doesn't even have the courage to live. Yan Che sighed that although this country is brutal, there are still people who are loyal to the country, but they are in the wrong direction, and their efforts are in vain. Yan Che handed over all state affairs to Meng Sheng, and those officials found it even more difficult to accept a woman to guide the country, but no one dared to say it. Everyone knew from Princess Mengsheng's respectful attitude that the Jiang Kingdom in the past had completely surrendered to the control of the demons.
Everyone thought that after this demon took over the country, he would have to cultivate for a while, after all, the war had just ended. But I never expected that before leaving, Yan Che's words made everyone fall into the abyss again: the next thing is to attack other countries.
The world is always chaotic, no matter whether it is a change of people or demons, they can't get rid of the fate of cannibalism.
Yan Che came to King Qi's study in the past, and the palace maids did not dare to come in to serve. After Yan Che sat down, he didn't rest, and summoned Yan Qinghou non-stop. Zhao Yige also recovered from the march and followed Yan Qinghou to the study.
Yan Che asked: "General Yan, time waits for no one, do you think which country we attack next?"
Yan Qinghou himself hadn't come back to his senses yet, the Great Demon King in front of him had plundered a country almost without a single soldier, if he really continued, who else could stop him. He had two soldiers carry a map and hang it on the wall. The map is very detailed, and the geographical location of the six countries is very well described.
Yan Qinghou stood in front of the map and introduced him to the location of various countries, including Lu in the north, Li and Yun in the south. Yan Che asked what was the matter, and Yan Qinghou said: "In fact, there is a territory of Lai Guo in the territory of Qi State, and it was given to Lai Guo by Qi State in order to marry Lai State at that time. At that time, Lai Guo discharged a prince to marry the princess of Qi State, but King Qi actually had a premeditated plan, he actually wanted to control the prince of Lai Kingdom in order to blackmail Lai Kingdom. But he didn't want the prince of Laiguo to be extraordinary, he sat alone in an attic in the territory, and the Qi army attacked dozens of times and ended in a fiasco. Even the fire attack and the various Warlock cultivators failed to damage the attic. King Qi finally surrounded the attic and cut down all the woods outside the attic, wanting to wait for the people inside to lack food and water before going in to kill them. But it is said that none of the people who entered the attic came out alive, and the attic stood here for two years. ”
Yan Che was attracted by Yan Qinghou's description, and he asked Yan Qinghou if he knew who this prince of Lai was. Yan Qinghou thought about it, he didn't want to say it, but finally said it.
"I know, he's also my best friend, he's one of the Seven Swords' Heart Sword, Yanagi. “
Is it one of the Seven Swords again? After hearing this, Yan Che immediately lost interest in this person, because the flower foil and wind sword he encountered along the way had already given him a general understanding of the strength of the seven swords. This person is not very important. Yan Che said, "This person is not of any use to us to conquer the world, is it?"
"He's actually very important. Yan Qinghou said righteously, "The reason why King Qi wants to control the prince of Laiguo is because Laiguo is an island country, and no one in the mainland knows where they are. Every time, it is the people of Lai who come and go on the sea alone, and we know almost nothing about Lai Guo. Once King Qi also sent a navy to the country of Lai, but every time it was in vain. If the king wants to subdue the kingdom of Lai, this prince is indispensable. “
Yan Che, who was sincere, didn't find it difficult to go to the Lai Kingdom, but he saw that Yan Qinghou wanted to save his friend. It just so happened that Zhao Yige was also recovering from his injury, and it was time to see his strength after transformation. But Yan Qinghou actually asked Yan Che to let him go to deal with the Heart Sword Liu Sheng, Yan Che felt that it was not good, and the young man should be given a chance. He still insisted on letting Zhao Yige go. Yan Qinghou was naturally relieved, saying that this Liu Sheng's swordsmanship attainment was above him, and if Zhao Yige went, he would only be sent to death. Yan Che had no choice but to say that he would go in person. Yan Qinghou couldn't talk about it anymore, so he could only give up.
Yan Che walked out of the study alone with Zhao Yige, and he asked Yan Tiege to discuss future plans with everyone.
Yan Che took Zhao Yige to a rockery in a courtyard and said to Zhao Yige: "Let me see if your fate has been rewritten." At this moment, Zhao Yige saw the murderous aura in Yan Che's eyes! Yan Che was taken by surprise and punched him with his right hand......
