Chapter 102: Friendship
I am a sinner.
This is the beginning of the letter left by the Founding Emperor.
He went on to write that he was the most unfaithful and unrighteous man in the world.
... Jing Yu's fingertips pinching the letter paper were slightly white, and while reading the letter, it seemed that he was experiencing a harsh whipping, and a huge pain swept over, making him almost powerless.
It turns out that the taste of the truth is so bitter and astringent.
......
Before the unification of the Zhou Dynasty, the human race was a plate of scattered sand.
The vassal states were divided into one side, and the countries continued to fight each other for many years, and the people were miserable.
Although the gods favored and divided all the seven continents into human races, mankind has never made good use of this vast and rich land, and instead of uniting as one, they have become more and more fighting and leading wars over the land.
The founding emperor of the Zhou Dynasty ascended the throne at a young age, and he was also full of ambition to unify the human race and end the division and war. But he is only the king of a small country, and neither the country's financial nor military strength is enough to support him to unify the entire human race.
After a few years of such a mess, just when he was gradually abandoned by his ideals and planned to get by, a strange person appeared.
This strange man first appeared in his dreams, and they talked together in their dreams, talking freely to each other, and the conversation was very speculative.
After a few days of chatting, the man suddenly asked him if he was worried about the unification of the human race.
After all, it was in a dream, and he immediately told his thoughts and thoughts without concealment.
The man was silent for a long time, and said he was willing to help him. But there is a request, that is, after unifying the human race, ask him to return the land of the two continents that originally belonged to the demon race to the demon race.
He was in a dream at the time, and he only felt that he was thinking about it day and night, so he agreed without thinking about it.
So the man promised to come to him the next day.
He thought it was just a dream, but to his surprise, when he woke up the next day, he opened his eyes and found that the other party was actually sitting in front of his bed, smiling at him.
What's even more amazing is that none of the palace guards noticed him breaking in.
The emperor thought that this was a god and immediately bent down to worship, but the man hurriedly stopped him, explaining that he was not a god, but a demon, and that he was the king of the demon clan.
In this way, the founding emperor, with the help of the demon king, began the great cause of unifying the human race. His army is also like a divine help, invincible in war, invincible, invincible.
And as time progressed, the relationship between the two became better and better, and finally they even swore to the sky, and since then they have become brothers with different surnames, sharing life and death, and never abandoning.
On the same day after they became brothers, the Demon King took a drop of blood from the Founding Emperor and pointed him to the place where the jade veins outside Kyoto City were located. Later, he tried his best to help him build the capital in Xuanzhou.
The demon king told him that with the protection of that drop of blood and jade veins, the imperial city would inevitably be inviolable from all demons, and the heirs of the royal family and the human race would be safe from all ages.
Not long afterward, the Founding Emperor completely ended the war and officially unified the human race. Coupled with the blood of the demon king and the blessing of the jade vein, the national strength is also becoming stronger day by day.
However, after having the power, the founding emperor's mentality is no longer like the simple boy back then, in order not to return the two continents that he had promised to the demon king, he avoided meeting him several times, and arranged countless immortal cultivators around him to escort him.
He was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so he preemptively claimed that it was because of the help of a god that he unified the human race, and then built a temple and set up a project to worship the gods on the winter solstice, covering everything up perfectly.
He was waiting for the day when the Demon King would come to settle accounts with him, and he always hid a knife under his pillow.
It's just that the demon king didn't come again.
Just like it was silent back then, and now it has disappeared without a trace.
It's just that as time passed, the founding emperor gradually felt lonely.
Remembering that the two had a good conversation about wine back then, he began to regret that he had not fulfilled his promise to return the two continents in the end.
So he built an underground palace and buried his secrets here. I hope that in the future, the descendants who have the courage to open the sarcophagus can redeem this mistake for him and reveal the truth to the world.
......
After reading the letter, Jing Yu closed his eyes and his body trembled.
So, is he the one who should tell the truth?
But three hundred years have passed.
Whether it is a human race or a demon race, it is no longer what it used to be.
Not to mention whether the demon clan after taking refuge in the demon clan now can still be satisfied with the human race returning the two continents, let's just say that the people living on the land of those two continents have lived in that land for hundreds of years and have long been accustomed to their homeland, do you want him to give those people to the demon clan together?
What's more, now the blood of the demon king has been taken away by them.
The royal family has lost its protection......
Jing Yu looked down at the Spring and Autumn Jade on his waist, now it had lost its previous luster and had completely turned into an ordinary jade.
Jing Yu gritted his teeth and made a decision, "Go back to the city first, protect, emperor." ”
......
When the three of them walked out of the underground palace with Jinghong, it was already bright outside.
Outside the door stood a group of well-equipped Imperial Guards, and when they saw them coming out, they raised their spears and pointed their spears at several people.
The eyes of the Imperial Forest Army led by him were red, "You killed General Meng!"
Jing Yu wanted to explain, but the other party didn't intend to listen, so he directly ordered in a deep voice, "Take people." ”
"Who dare?"
With an angry roar, I saw another team of Royal Forest Army hurrying behind them, led by the same group of men and horses who had escorted them more than a month ago.
The man at the head knelt down and said, "Lord Wang, the minister is late." After speaking, he turned back with a calm face and ordered, "Wang Changshi, tell your people to retreat." ”
The latter refused to compromise and said angrily, "They killed General Meng!"
"Stand down!"
"You don't have the right to interfere with us!"
"Yes, you don't have the right. ”
The soldiers behind Wang Changshi protested one after another.
"The Northern and Southern Imperial Forest Army belong to two formations!"
"You don't have the right!"
Listening to their shouting, the Imperial Guards on the other side also followed closely and ridiculed each other.
"King Jin can't be a murderer!"
"Whoever gives you the right to take people at will!"
“......”
Seeing the confrontation between the two teams, the atmosphere became more and more tense, and Jing Yu, who had not made a sound, came out and stopped between the two teams.
His back was straight, his face sank into the water, and his temperament was cold and gentle, "People, I didn't kill them." ”
Wang Changshi was obviously unconvinced, "The underground palace is a forbidden place, even if the person is not killed by you, it is a big crime to trespass on the forbidden land!"
Jing Yu said, "I'll explain this later." Now, the emperor has, in danger. Come with me to the palace first. ”
Wang Changshi looked suspicious, "Your Majesty has your own true dragon body protector......"
"Shut up. Jing Yu shouted, faintly showing signs of anger.
He didn't know who had said it or for what purpose, but he didn't want to hear it anymore.
"I'm willing to go to the palace with the prince to escort you!" said the general of the Imperial Forest Army on the other side.
The soldiers behind him also shouted, "I'm willing to go to the palace with the prince!"
The momentum is earth-shattering.
Wang Changshi looked at the Southern Imperial Forest Army behind Jing Yu, hesitated, gritted his teeth, and then ordered, "Go!"
