Chapter 330: Immortal Country

"Someone has already sent it. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xue Ying stopped her, "It's been a day of running, aren't you tired?" ”

"Mr. Gu is more tired than me, and he hasn't rested. Miss, can I still go out with Mr. Gu tomorrow? ”

Xue Ying stared at Qiao Ya with a strange face and didn't say a word, Qiao Ya pulled her sleeve and coquettishly: "You just let me go, it's really boring to stay in this house all day." I met a lot of people today, and some blue-eyed and green-eyed ones, but it was fun-I finally came to Uncle Xin, you let me have enough fun, and I promise not to cause trouble for Mr. Gu. ”

"If you want to go, go there." Xue Ying sighed, "Did Mr. Gu give you ecstasy, are you so clingy to him?" ”

"Not really!" Qiaoya puffed up, "How can Miss talk nonsense?" ”

"Okay, okay, I was wrong." Xue Ying raised her hand in surrender, boredly picking up the newly bought codex and looking at it.

As the choke point connecting Dagu and the countries of the Western Regions, Uncle Xin is a place where cultural information collides and blends, so the bookbook and codex bought here are particularly interesting, but unfortunately Xue Ying doesn't understand foreign languages, so he can only pick up what he can understand.

"What's the use of reading more books when you're locked up in the house all day? It's not as interesting as what I listen to when I go out. Qiao Ya muttered.

"Didn't you say that you couldn't understand what the people outside were saying?"

"There are also people who use Dagu's official language. I heard a very interesting story today. ”

Xue Ying put down the book and put on a deaf look: "What story?" ”

"On the other side of the Western Regions is a powerful nomadic country called Columbia, you know?"

"Hmm." There is a narrow corridor from Dagu to the Western Regions, Xinshu is at the throat of this corridor, beyond Xinshu is a large Gobi and desert, scattered with dozens of small countries and tribes, the vast Gobi and desert isolate Dagu from another big country, Columbia, so the two big countries have been at peace for many years.

"There is a mountain range called Xu Ran in the territory of the Columbia country, and in the deepest part of this mountain range, there is a country called China, called Xianzi. This immortal kingdom does not have strong military strength, no jewelry wealth, and no outstanding talents, but it has been stretching for thousands of years, and its history is older than that of Columbia and the dynasties before Columbia. The dynasties that surrounded it, strong or weak, fell one after another, but it has always existed, do you know why? ”

Xue Ying finally became interested from the bottom of her heart: "Why? ”

"Beauty."

"Huh?"

"Every five years, the Immortal Kingdom pays tribute to a beautiful woman to the dynasty that surrounds it, because this beauty is so beautiful, so as long as she says a word, no one will fight the idea of the Immortal Kingdom."

Xue Ying smiled dumbly: "That's it? ”

Qiao Ya was anxious: "You don't believe it? ”

"Of course I can't believe this kind of thing, if the Immortal Country is really rich in beautiful women, shouldn't more people fight its idea?"

"The country of immortals is not rich in beauties, the kind of beauties who can captivate the country and the city only come out every five years, and they are not born good-looking, they are eaten by taking medicine."

Xue Ying's heart was shocked: "Oh? ”

"Legend has it that there is a tree growing in the palace of the Immortal Country, which only blooms and bears fruit once every five years, and the fruit is called 'Xianrong', and the king of the Immortal Kingdom has passed down a secret method from generation to generation, which can refine the 'Xianrong' into an elixir, this elixir can make people special, special and beautiful, no matter who it is, when they see this person who eats the pill, they will fall in love with her, and no one can escape."

The corners of Xue Ying's lips froze, and she looked at Qiaoya blankly.

Qiao Ya didn't notice that something was wrong with her, and said straight down: "It's a pity that this medicine is too rebellious, so the beauties who take this medicine can't live long, I heard that no one can live for five years for thousands of years - so the Immortal Kingdom needs to pay tribute every five years, and they dare not cut it off." ”

The blood on Xue Ying's face faded little by little.

Qiaoya was startled: "Miss, what's wrong with you?" Where is it uncomfortable? ”

"......What do you say," Xue Ying asked tremblingly, "People who take that medicine won't live for five years?" ”

"That's right, so I think this medicine is a poison at all, not an elixir. Miss, I'll help you go to rest, your face is not good. ”

Xue Ying ignored her words, and followed Qiaoya a few steps forward in a daze, and suddenly stopped and asked, "Where is Mr. Gu?" ”

Gu Yizhi and Xi Xi were discussing in the room, and when they saw Xue Ying suddenly push the door in, they looked up at her together.

"What are you talking about? I'll listen to it too. Xue Ying walked over expressionlessly.

"Aren't you the least happy to hear such nerve-wracking things?" It's weird.

"I'm interested now." Xue Ying sat down, "There is no news from Xiang Buzhi yet, is it because there is a traitor within the 'trick'?" ”

"Yes."

Xue Ying stared at the map they spread out on the table: "Where are traitors from?" The finger pointed, and the word "Columbia" was marked on the vast territory.

Gu Yizhi's eyes, who had been silent, flashed: "How did the county lord know?" ”

"Guess." Xue Ying didn't raise her head, "The 'treacherous' people were rebelled by Columbia, seeking to seize the new uncle, after the new uncle was taken, under the attack from both ends, none of these scattered small countries and tribes in the middle would fall into the territory of Columbia." "Draw a large circle on the map with your finger," at that time, Columbia will directly border Dagu, and press northwest to south. ”

She withdrew her hand and exchanged a tacit look with Xi Xi: No wonder Murong Jing was able to ascend to the crown prince by winning the new uncle, it turned out that there was such a reason behind this. If he can successfully thwart the conspiracy of Columbia, it will be a meritorious achievement for Dagu.

Xi Xi said in a deep voice: "Now that the various factions within Uncle Xin are fighting, they are actually making wedding dresses for others, as for who wears this wedding dress in the end, it depends on whether they can come back in time." "Rush back, take down the traitor, the new uncle is still "tricky", he can't come back, the new uncle really falls into the hands of the brother, and the trouble will be big.

Xue Ying bit her lip lightly and asked Gu Yizhi, "Are there any people from the Northern Plains Country in Source City?" ”

Gu Yizhi's eyes became brighter and brighter: "Yes." ”

"Uncle Xin is rich, and the Northern Plains Kingdom definitely wants a piece of the pie. It is imperative that the country of the northern plains and the University of Columbia come to an agreement. If the two countries reach an agreement to divide up Uncle Xin, then the next target of encroachment will definitely be Dagu. ”

"But if Kitahara and Columbia want to negotiate, we can't be sure where they will negotiate, who will participate in them, and what will be the result. ”

"The place of negotiation must be Uncle Xin. Kitahara and Columbia are both big countries, and the two countries share a border, and the border conflict has hardly been interrupted over the years, and with the sudden turmoil of Uncle Xin, it is impossible for them to reach an agreement in advance. Now that the situation of Uncle Xin is changing rapidly, in order to cut through the chaos quickly, they will definitely choose the most convenient and fastest place to negotiate, that is, to complete the negotiation with Uncle Xin, and then directly start to divide the cake. ”

"Divide the cake?" Xi Xi and Gu Yizhi asked questions at the same time.

Xue Ying was helpless: "This is not important. Looking at Gu Yizhi, "Mr. Gu, is there a way to inquire where the people from the Northern Plains are?" ”
