On the outskirts of Donghua Castle, the capital of the Shire Kingdom, 12 people are approaching Nanyang Mountain to the south of the city from different directions in the sky.

"Nine-Tails, have you arrived?" A burly man, wearing a mask, shouted to the transfiguration bracelet in his hand.

"It's been there a long time ago, Kirin, you're so slow!" A slightly more elegant woman's voice came from the bracelet.

"I ran into a few thieves on the way, and it took me a while to deal with them," said the burly man.

"Hurry up, Qinglong and they're all here. ”

"Well, it's coming soon. ”

When the burly man flew to the top of Nanyang Mountain, the woman who had spoken to him earlier was standing in the distance and waving to him.

Not far behind the woman there was a large manor, very quiet and chic. At this time, its chimney was emitting green smoke.

"Hurry up, the king has been waiting for a long time," the woman said softly.

"What about the others?"

"It's almost there"

"Has Xuanwu arrived?"

"It's here. ”

"Oh my God, he was the slowest in previous years. ”

"This year, they were the first to arrive. ”

"Could it be a salary increase this year, he was the first to arrive!"

"It is true that the wages will be raised, and it is said that the kingdom has found a gold mine in the south. ”

"Haha, great, I've been looking forward to this day!"

"Look at the beauty that gives you beauty, and you want money to die!"

"Nine-tails, I can't compare with you, you are the second generation of rich, and I am a farmer. ”

"Alright, alright, let's go in, the king is in a hurry. ”

In the hall of the manor, a group of people were sitting at this time.

"The king, the Nine-Tails and the Kirin have arrived," said a beautiful woman in a long scarlet dress as she stood up to the middle-aged man on the throne.

(This woman's name is Suzaku, and she is a rich girl.) )

"Well, who's missing?" The middle-aged man on the throne smiled and nodded.

(The middle-aged man on the throne is Xuanyuan Qingyu, the contemporary king of the Shire.) )

"It's still a wolf and a yaksha. ”

Xuanyuan Qingyu shook his head, "It's the two of them who are the slowest." ”

"I'll go out and see where they're going. ”

"No need, open the hologram of Nanyang Mountain!"

"Ah, is the hologram finished?"

"Well, it was done the other day. ”

At this time, Count Zhenchen Wei Chi Xueli placed a small square box on the ground in the middle of the crowd and pressed a small white button.

Zi-z-z-

After a slight disturbing sound, there was a buzz, and a hologram with a rather spatial structure suddenly popped out of the small square box. The entire topography of Nanyang Mountain is shown here.

Everyone stood up and looked at this thing in amazement.

(Holographic map, the latest technology of the Shire Kingdom, uses the three-dimensional simulation technology of the spatial system of the mysterious architecture to completely reveal the space area.) )

"Look, those two little dots that are approaching quickly should be them," Xuanyuan Qingyu said, pointing to the two little dots in the hologram that shone with white light.

Everyone looked at the three-person hologram in amazement, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

"Is this a hologram, a cutting-edge technological equipment that uses the spatial system of the Divine Structure?" Suzaku said in surprise.

"Yes, the latest technology in the country!" Xuanyuan Qingyu replied.

After a while, Xuanyuan Qingyu turned off the hologram.

"This thing is very energy-intensive, so it can't be turned on all the time!"

Everyone present was still in amazement, and after a long while, Suzaku asked again.

"Xuanyuan, did you say that your salary will be raised this year?"

"Yes. ”

"That's great, I've been waiting for this day for a long time. ”

"Suzaku, you're still short of money, your father is a viscount!"

"Yo, Wang, who is not short of money these days, since I was selected for the Star Soul Knights, my father has not given me any more money. ”

"Why didn't I give you the money?"

"I don't know, maybe it's an order from an elder!" After saying this, Suzaku crooked his mouth.

"Hahaha, then be self-reliant, anyway, you have been in contact with a lot of people since you were a child, and you know a lot, and this making money is a trivial matter for you. ”

"Well, king, that's true, but I'm too busy right now. ”

"Hahaha, it's you who are lazy. ”

At this moment, a waiter walked in through the door.

"King, the wolf and the yaksha have arrived. ”

"Let them in. ”

After a while, two men walked in through the door. One of them was thin and wore a wolf's head mask on his head. The other person is more normal, but he is more stout.

"Xuanyuan, here we come. ”

"Well, sit down. ”

The people who came were none other than the ghost wolf and the yaksha, and when they were seated, Xuanyuan Qingyu, a middle-aged man sitting on the main seat, stood up.

"Okay, this year's Star Soul Seminar is now underway, first of all, I want to announce one thing, since the empire is developing well now, I will give you a salary increase. ”

"Yay!"

"Great!"

"Finally a salary increase!"

The twelve Star Soul Knights sitting in the lobby immediately cheered.

"I know, you've always wanted to raise your salary, but because of the relatively large expenses of the empire a few years ago, this matter has not been put on the agenda, and now it has doubled for you as you wish. ”

"Yay, I've been waiting for this day for a long time!" Suzaku raised his hands up excitedly. Others also exchanged heads.

Xuanyuan Qingyu clasped his hands together and patted it.

"Alright, now I'm going to announce the second thing. ”

He looked at the group, and then said with a somewhat serious expression.

"There are still three years left before the Frost Disaster once in fifty years, how are your preparations?"

There was silence all around...

"Hmm, why don't you speak?" Qinglong, you talk about it first!"

Immediately, a middle-aged man in a blue-blue half-concealed armor stood up.

"Wang, my town is in the northeast, and the 3,000-strong special operations regiment you handed over to me has been trained and ready to fight. ”

"Suzaku?"

"The latest flame cannon truck has been developed!"

"Kirin?"

"3,000 heavy infantry on standby!"

......

......

......

"Very good, everyone did a good job and lived up to my expectations," Xuanyuan Qingyu was very happy, walked over and patted Qinglong on the shoulder, "Bring all your troops to the imperial capital at the beginning of next month, and I want others to see your strength." ”

"Qing Yu, is it too early to expose them now?" A beautiful middle-aged woman behind Xuanyuan Qingyu walked up quickly and said.

"Shu Ran, it's not too early, let the people see our strength, and by the way, also shock the surrounding Xiaoxiao. ”

"It's okay, let those Ulans be honest. ”

"I received news that those Ulans are also forming a special army, and it seems that they are learning from our model!"

"Oh~ Those guys on horseback in Ulan are also doing this, can they do it?"

"They've built a city to the east, and it's already on a scale. ”

"This is not good, the nomads are starting to build cities, which will be a great threat to us. ”

"It's up to their city to survive this frost disaster. ”

The Shire Kingdom is a country located in the east of the Shanlan Continent, and the current king Xuanyuan Qingyu has worked hard to govern the country, and the national power has become stronger and stronger.

The Ulan tribe in the north always invaded the south, burning, killing and looting, and was extremely ferocious.

In addition, the bandits at sea are also Jianyin captive and do all kinds of evil.

So, there's the story after that...

......

"Today's dishes are all grown in this manor in Nanyang Mountain, I believe that you usually eat better than this, so let's make it simpler today," Xuanyuan Qingyu raised the cup in his hand, "Come on, come on, this is the rice wine brewed by my wife Shu Ran, let's have a drink." ”

"I wish the Charr prosperity!"

"I wish the Charr prosperity!"

"I wish the Charr prosperity!"

The others raised their glasses as well.

After everyone drank this glass of wine, Queen Shu Ran looked at Suzaku.

"Suzaku, what is the factory you are going to open?"

"Queen, I want to build a factory that produces strong, hard-wearing garments. ”

"It's good, I've made it and sent me a few. ”

"Every time they marched, the sergeants' costumes were sharpened out a lot, and they all gave their opinions many times. ”

"Very well, there should be a little more of this, to strengthen the construction of equipment. ”

At this time, Kirin stood up.

"King, I have something to report here. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Some time ago, the Sea Clan on Black Rock Island was attacked and many people died!"

"Huh, what's going on?"

"Now I have information that a high-ranking nobleman has offered a reward for a water girl, and then a merchant has summoned mercenaries to go to Black Rock Island to kidnap people. ”

"How can this be reasonable, what about the loss of the sea tribe on Black Rock Island?"

"They died more than thirty people. ”

"So much!"

"Yes, those merchants have gathered a lot of masters. ”

"What is the end result of this matter?"

"Fortunately, the leader of the Sea Clan handled it properly, and the captive Sea Clan woman was successfully rescued. ”

"Can you find out who did it?"

"I haven't found the mastermind behind it, only the few businessmen who went to Black Rock Island have been caught. ”

"Strictly handle! We must find out who is behind the scenes!"

"Okay, please rest assured, I will definitely find out. ”

"How can this be justified, these bastards do all these things that hurt heaven and reason. ”

"Could it be Kui Shinto?" At this time, Wang Shuran said.

"It's hard to say, what Kui Shendao does usually causes chaos in the world, and this thing looks like some immoral thing done by some rich kids. ”

"Shall we express that then?"

"Yes. ”

Xuanyuan Qingyu thought for a while.

"Kirin, wait for you to go to the royal family's warehouse to allocate some supplies to compensate for the losses of the Sea Clan, and show them our attitude. ”

"Don't worry, King, I will definitely convey your attitude to the Sea Clan of Black Rock Island," Kirin clenched his fist in one hand to his chest.

Xuanyuan Qingyu sighed softly, the corners of his mouth furrowed slightly, and he seemed to be a little helpless.

......

At night, in the open space outside the Nanyang Peak Manor, everyone who had finished dinner was walking.

Xuanyuan Qingyu walked in the middle, and Wang Shuran was on his left. Behind him were the twelve members of the Star Soul Knights, as well as Count Zhenchen Lieutenant Chi Xueli.

"The moon is very round tonight, what do you think of this Nanyang Mountain?" Xuanyuan Qingyu looked at the round bright moon and seemed to have some thoughts.

"The mountains are beautiful, the moonlight is warm, it's a good place," Wei Chi Xueli said.

"The flowers and plants here are all flourishing, and there are springs, birds, and rabbits, and they are full of life," Suzaku immediately followed.

"If you build a castle here, it's easy to defend and difficult to attack!" The white tiger, who rarely spoke, said angrily at this time.

"You can form a flight academy here!" Kirin said.

"You can grow some herbs here," Qinglong said softly.

"Hahaha, you can do all of this, but it's a pity that this mountain top is a bit small and can't do so much," Xuanyuan Qingyu laughed loudly.

After a while, Xuanyuan Qingyu stopped.

"Do you still remember Dongfang Shuo!"

"But the heroes at the beginning of the founding of the country, the twelve immortals?" Suzaku asked.

"It's him. ”

"Of course, who doesn't remember this most outstanding figure in our country 200 years ago, his story was written in books when he was a child. ”

"Now I'm going to tell you a secret about Dongfang Shuo. ”

When they heard Dongfang Shuo's secret, everyone raised their attention, and everyone suddenly came to their senses, and opened their ears wide one by one.

"Actually, Dongfang Shuo is still alive!"
