Chapter 2 The Lion King's Living Coffin is in doubt
"Smoked lamb!" The voice of an old servant who has been familiar for more than 20 years and can no longer be familiar with it, mixed with the fragrance of smoked mutton, wafted into the study of the Lion King's Mansion in Xiyang City, and Xiyang City was still sleeping in the morning at this time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Xiyang City is located in the westernmost section of the Great Wall in the north, connecting the Great Wall in the east, relying on the Snow Goose Mountain in the west, and building according to the Snow Goose Mountain. Seven years ago, the Lion King led 10,000 elite soldiers to defend here. Later, the imperial court made the Lion King concurrently serve as the protector of the Northwest Capital to maintain the safety and smoothness of the Northwest Silk Crystal Road, but there were no more soldiers and horses allocated. The Lion King could only divide 7,000 troops to patrol the eastern section of the Silk Crystal Road in the territory of the Crystal Country. The remaining 3,000 soldiers and horses were obviously not enough to hold Xiyang City, which gave the Lion King a headache. What's even more troublesome is that a large number of refugees from Beili Country continue to pour in, and even many uncommon wild animals will migrate from Beili Country over Snow Goose Mountain to the Crystal Country, and there are even mountain people who have seen ice field snow wolves that are only available in Snow Cloud Country, and Snow Cloud Country is located in the far northeast of North Li Country!
Shi Dongjun, the lion king, looked at the old servant bringing in the hot smoked mutton, and couldn't help but think of the years when he abandoned his pen and joined Rong, and recruited troops with his three students to help the imperial court move to the north and south of the Crystal Kingdom, so that he became the mainstay and quelled the rebellion. At that time, he and this servant were both under forty years old, and his three students Hu Yanchang, She Dongxing, Kong Runsheng, and the exorcist Xilong he met later were only in their early twenties, and they were still at the age of strong blood. At that time, in the face of the invasion of the Northern Liberty Kingdom, the army was united in hatred of the enemy, and it was often possible to win more with less. Every time they defeated the enemy, they would reward the three armies, drink wine, and eat smoked mutton...... Thirteen years later, the war has subsided, but he and his students have been crowned kings! However, Xilong has become a rare pillar of the imperial court, and has prepared a full-time team for exorcism-Xijia Village.
Looking back at the eventful years when he and his subordinates responded to the court and went to the national disaster together, the lion king always felt a lot of emotion. How many times have I dreamed of a bonfire, rice wine, smoked mutton, and the heroic singing that floated in the night sky in my sleep......
Twenty years ago, the southern princes rebelled, and then the northern steppe power, the Northern Li Kingdom, took advantage of the chaos to break through the Great Wall in the north. The main force of the Crystal Kingdom, which was quelling the rebellion of the princes in the south, had to divide its forces to block it. In Qinglongyuan, the upstream city of the Qinglong River (now the capital), the main force of the Crystal Kingdom united with the local armed forces and waited for the main force of the Beili Kingdom, but the Beili Kingdom bypassed the back of the Qinglongyuan and suddenly attacked the Qinglongyuan, and the main force of the Qinglongyuan of the Crystal Kingdom was almost wiped out. Subsequently, the soldiers of the Beili Kingdom approached Crystal City, the national capital at that time, and the court was in a panic. At the suggestion of Empress Zhou Lan, the emperor ordered all localities to organize their own volunteer armies to assist the imperial court, and promised that if there were those who defeated the main force of the Northern Li Kingdom and quelled the rebellion, they could be crowned kings! Shi Dongjun, who is the emperor's teacher and is teaching in the Royal Academy, with the encouragement of the queen, and his three protégés, Hu Yanchang, She Dongxing, and Kong Runsheng, each returned to their hometowns to recruit troops. In the next three years, in the midst of repeated defeats and battles, they forged themselves from weak scholars to generals with troops. Shi Dongjun's army gradually grew, and the army of the three students also made a good impression. In order to facilitate the battle, the armies of the three students were merged together and placed under the command of their teacher, Shi Dongjun. It took them five years to go north to defeat the main force of the Northern Kingdom, and then another five years to the south to quell the rebellion of the princes. In the process of going south to quell the rebellion, they were attacked by some witchcraft and Gu magic, and they were almost helpless, and later they were able to successfully quell the rebellion with the help of Qishi Xilong. In this way, after thirteen years of fighting in the south and the north, the Crystal Kingdom finally turned the corner.
The war is over, the emperor fulfilled his promise, according to the surnames of the four: Shi, Huyan, She, Kong, they were named the lion king, the tiger king, the snake king, and the peacock king. Twenty years ago, they were just teachers and students at the Royal Academy, and thirteen years later, seven years ago, they have achieved something that they would never even dream of!
After quelling the rebellion of the Crystal Kingdom, the lion king Shi Dongjun reached an agreement with the three students to reduce the court's suspicion of their self-respecting army, and asked to dismiss his army. The original 300,000 soldiers, including his three students, were reduced to less than 100,000. Except for 50,000 under the command of the imperial court to defend the Great Wall in the north, the four kings only left more than 10,000 people each. As soon as this proposal came out, the imperial court was overjoyed, immediately approved it, and promised all the conditions for the dismissal of the four kings. Although he was opposed and dissatisfied by many of his generals, the lion king painstakingly explained to them the truth of "lackeys cook, good bows hidden". After much setback, the dismissal was finally carried out smoothly after the soldiers were given a sufficient amount of dismissal pay, the land was allocated to the retrenched soldiers for cultivation, and the generals under him were promised to be appointed magistrates. Knowing that the retrenchment was going smoothly and the court was overjoyed, the Lion King took the opportunity to propose the establishment of Xijia Village, so that the wandering and fugitive strange people from all over the country (many kingdoms in the Far Western Regions expelled and slaughtered the so-called "dissidents" for religious reasons) lived and communicated together, dealt with the increasing number of strange things, dealt with some strange events that were difficult for the army to handle, and tried his best to explain that this was conducive to maintaining the rule of the imperial court. And Xijia Village was directly in charge of Xilong, and the imperial court immediately allowed it.
The war has subsided until now, and it has been seven years since he enjoyed peace, but the lion king Shi Dongjun still feels a little uneasy in his heart. The emperor died in the spring of last year, and before his death, he ordered the lion king to return to Beijing, and gave the lion king the highest honor to enter the imperial mausoleum - Wanguo Mountain - to admire his appearance - you know, unless it is the prince and grandson, no one, including the queen, can enter Wandong Mountain! The emperor then passed the throne to Empress Zhou Lan's son, who was less than five years old, and entrusted five cabinet ministers to assist him.
After the emperor's death, the Lion King then returned to Xiyang City, as he was tired of the life of the court. And the queen and the ministers of the cabinet are harmonious on the surface, but in fact they are secretly competing.
At this time, the vitality of the northern country also began to recover, and its ambition to go south continued to expand. And in recent nights, he has been dreaming of his dead men and soldiers on the battlefield.
"Could it be that I'm getting old?" The lion king thought to himself, "Or is something really going to happen?" ”
From time to time, the imperial court asked him to go to the capital to discuss the state affairs, sometimes Empress Zhou Lan, sometimes the chief minister of the Cabinet Wang Rong, but it was only for consultation, and he was not given real power to deal with it. But the Lion King was willing to go anyway because it would allow him to meet his students.
The Tiger King Hu Yanchang was stationed in Dongyang City, the easternmost part of the Great Wall, but the 50,000 elite soldiers stationed on the Great Wall were directly under the imperial court. Both the Tiger King and the Lion King knew very well in their hearts that these 50,000 elite soldiers were not so much guarding the Great Wall as guarding them. She Dongxing, the king of snakes, led his 10,000 sailors to garrison Haifucheng, an important town on the southeast coast, to watch over the southeast island country - Lvsen Country, and also divided troops to patrol the southeast coast to maintain the smooth flow of the "Silk Crystal Road on the Sea". The imperial court also stationed 30,000 sailors in Haicheng, the largest city on the coast, and in less than two days, these sailors could go directly to Haifu City along the sea route, and the heart of prevention could not be more obvious. And the Peacock King Kong Runsheng led 10,000 of his men to garrison Nanyang, an important town in the southwest. The southwest is an uncivilized land, where tribes are scattered and often at war over land. The Peacock King was in a mess just by mediating the contradictions between various ethnic groups. The 10,000 soldiers and horses he had on hand were not enough to maintain order, so the imperial court was most at ease with him and did not take any more targeted precautions.
However, the Lion King knew very well that this calm was temporary, and the recent looting of the caravans on the Silk Crystal Road had made him even more anxious. Not to mention the lack of numbers in the army, many of the attacks were very strange: the blue hearts of merchants were dug up one after another! (People in this world have two hearts, one of which is a blue heart, which is born but doesn't start beating until adulthood.) This is something that his army can't solve, and it must be dealt with by the exorcism team, and although Xilong had left several experienced exorcists with him, these exorcists had no choice but to wait for Xilong to arrive.
"Sir! The gray dove brought a letter from Xijia Village! Before the lion king had finished eating the hot smoked mutton, the servant, who kept carrier pigeons, ran in and said to the lion king.
"Give it to me!" The lion king's eyes lit up, "Let's see if there are any other pigeons in the loft!" ”
"Yes, sir", the servant who kept the pigeons, trotted again and went back to the pigeon loft to wait.
"Sure enough, it's a letter from Yulong! It's finally here! The Lion King hurriedly opened the letter, and quickly walked to the oil lamp at the dining table, eager to know Xilong's reply.
It turned out that after dividing his troops to patrol the Silk Crystal Road, the Lion King suffered from not having enough manpower to defend Xiyang City, and many strange things happened frequently, which was beyond the ability of his subordinates, after all, the army was only used to fight, and there was nothing to be done when it encountered some evil demons, and the court did not regard these strange things as important things, thinking that this was just an excuse for the Lion King to expand his army. So, the lion king thought of Xilong.
The lion king sent a letter to the imperial court, hoping to transfer some strange people from Xijia Village to supplement the shortage of troops. In his letter to the imperial court, the Lion King highlighted the recent possible expansion of the Northern Kingdom. After all, after the defeat of the Beili Kingdom, it was not reconciled, the imperial court had already felt the pain of the invasion of the Northern Li Kingdom, and in the face of the threat of the northern power, the imperial court had to allow it, besides, the number of people in Xijia Village was not large, and there were not many people.
In fact, the news of the Northern Li Kingdom seems to have been suddenly interrupted recently, so his two sons Shi Cheng and Shi Jie took a few soldiers to disguise themselves as caravans and infiltrated the southern capital of the Northern Li Kingdom-the Southern Royal Court-There is no news so far, which makes the Lion King very worried. There are many strange people in Xilong's team, and they may be able to infiltrate the country of Beili to better understand the situation.
From Xilong's letter, the Lion King learned that Xilong had gathered capable forces to rush here overnight, knowing that Xiyang City lacked silver taels, and Xilong had ordered to terminate the construction of the island castle in Xijia Village, and gave all the silver taels to build the castle to fund the defense of Xiyang City! The lion king couldn't help but burst into tears when he saw this.
"Those who know me, Yuryu also!" The Lion King couldn't help but sigh.
"The prince ?—— not good—" Before the lion king could finish reading the letter, a herald in a green official uniform almost stumbled into the study.
"What's going on? Don't panic, speak slowly! The Lion King instructed his servants to hurry up and help the herald, who was already out of breath, to the chair in the study.
"Last night, the guard tower in the northeast was emitting wolf smoke, and as soon as I saw the fire, I came again to inform you! There are people from the Northern Kingdom who take advantage of the night to move to this side of the Great Wall! "The herald was so tired that he collapsed in his chair after spitting out these words, his eyes were bloodshot, and it seemed that he hadn't slept for a long time." But we went down to inspect and found nothing, like a ghost! ”
"Quick, all strict, help him to the inner room to rest, even bring the mutton in, let him eat something!"
"The Lion King doesn't care about me! Quickly order more troops to patrol it! The army on the Great Wall didn't take this news seriously at all, they only knew to hide in the city walls. The herald said with an indignant expression. This is the third time, obviously on the watchtower I saw a crowd of people moving towards us, but as soon as we got off the watchtower, we couldn't see any figures, it was really strange! ”
"This king has a number, you better rest first, I still need your place, you have to recover your strength as soon as possible!"
The herald was about to say something, but the lion king just looked at him with trust, and the herald swallowed the words back. Then, with the support of Du Yan, he left the study......
In the early morning of the next day, the lion king personally sent troops to inspect the area around the northeast guard tower several times, except for the dead grass on the grassland, bird droppings, horse manure, nothing else was abnormal. As soon as several soldiers on the watchtower saw the lion king, they surrounded him and muttered, "What are the more than ten eyes that we saw together...... I didn't drink again, didn't I really meet a ghost! ”
"General Chang Quyu!" The Lion King ordered one of the generals beside him, "Remove the watchtower and return to the city to defend!" From now on, requisitioned laborers will dig two trenches nine feet deep and nine feet wide outside the city wall, one full of bamboo sticks and the other full of water! Note that it is only done during the day, and at night everyone goes back to the city and all the gates are closed. Before the trench is dug, all levels must be closed! ”
"Order!" Chang Quyu left in a hurry after receiving the order.
"I can only wait, wait for the ...... of the dragon", the lion king stood on the side of the watchtower and looked at the south, and then looked at the white sky in the east, he took out the letter from his sleeve, and felt that the letter weighed a thousand pounds, which made his heart feel more steady.
In fact, it takes three days and three nights for the pigeons to fly back. As soon as Xilong received the letter from the lion king and the order of the imperial court, he rushed non-stop, day and night.
"More than ten days of travel, three days and three nights have passed, Xilong has at least finished the waterway!" Thinking of this, the lion king hopes to see the dragon as soon as possible.
**********************************
Waiting for the arrival of reinforcements from the dragon, there are still at least two days and two nights away, the lion king has been restless, thinking of the strange things around the watchtower, he is even more like a pins and needles, even if the trench outside the city has been basically dug, his heart is still a little worried. In order to make himself more at ease and transfer his nervousness by the way, the Lion King decided to inspect the entire Xiyang City.
Xiyang City is the largest border city at the western end of the Great Wall, built on the Snow Goose Mountain. On the top of the hill in the west, a watchtower and a beacon tower are built, and the Great Wall that goes to the east echoes across Xiyang City, and the buildings of Xiyang City are lined up like fish scales along the east foot of the snow goose, and there are strong city walls around it, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. At the foot of the mountain, a large road passes through the Snow Goose Mountain Canyon from north to south, and on the west side of the canyon is a small hill with a beacon tower built on it, and after this mountain bag is the main part of the Great Wall. The customs clearance post of Xiyang City is on top of this canyon, and the city wall more than 30 meters high blocks the way of the main road like a zigzag, blocking the canyon. All four gates were closed. In the south of the city, a large number of pedestrians, merchants and various carriages gathered, they were supposed to go to the northern country, but the city gate was suddenly closed, they could only wait and gather at the city gate, and the soldiers guarding the city gate only heard the sound of scolding their father and mother......
Several generals and heralds followed the lion king Shi Dongjun along the city wall, wearing black leather boots, gray woolen pants, heavy armor, a glazed helmet, and holding the silver snake sword that hung from his waist and followed him for many years—a greeting gift from Xilong when he first met him. On both sides of the city wall were lined up with the battle-hardened soldiers who followed the lion king, who looked at them cordially, talked with the soldiers from time to time, met a few veterans, and recalled: which battle, who was the bravest, and who among the enemies was scared to the bottom...... Bursts of laughter erupted from time to time.
Walking to the city walls, he saw the crowd gathered under the walls. The double trenches at the entrance had been dug and the people had to wait outside the trenches until the soldiers had laid planks on the two trenches before they could enter the city. In the outer trench, there are several migrant workers inserting sharp bamboo sticks and some discarded broken arrows, and the arrows of the broken arrows are polished and very sharp. The inner trenches have not yet been filled with water. On the edge of the ditch there were people preparing to enter the city pointing and talking, and in the crowd were mixed with carts carrying various goods, among which the large carriage carrying a few crystal coffins caught the attention of the lion king.
"Someone else sent a "living coffin" to the North Li Kingdom? The Lion King asked curiously.
"Report to the prince, not only there is, but there is a trend of increasing, it seems that Beili Kingdom has recently lowered the price of ice coffin sealing!" A sentinel standing beside the lion king and in charge of the sentry post said.
The so-called living coffin means that the person is lying in the coffin before he dies. After the defeat in the war, the country retreated north of the Great Wall, but its medical skills suddenly developed by leaps and bounds, and in the past few years its medical skills have attracted many patients from all over the world. Among its developed medical skills, the most famous is the frozen medical technique. This kind of medical technique can freeze the terminally ill person in a coffin, and after a few years, it can be opened again, and the terminally ill person will be resurrected, and perhaps when he is resurrected again, there may be a way to solve the terminally ill disease. Therefore, every year, many people who are dying in the Crystal Kingdom carry "living coffins" across the Great Wall to Beili Kingdom, and pay a lot of money to Beili Kingdom to freeze themselves. The growing national strength of the country has a lot to do with the developed medical skills. But how to perform the ice sealing technique, only the imperial doctors around the Emperor of Beili Kingdom knew.
"Where is the coffin hidden after it is frozen?" The Lion King asked thoughtfully.
"I heard that they were all transported to the cave of Ice Wolf Mountain!" Which sentry replied.
Soon, a discerning intelligence officer immediately unfolded a map of the Northern Kingdom and placed it on the city wall, explaining the location of Ice Wolf Mountain to the lion king and the generals. Ice Wolf Mountain is located in the far north hinterland of the Beili Kingdom, which is not famous, and it is the first time that the Lion King has heard of this mountain.
"According to reliable information, the Beili Kingdom is moving its capital to the north, and the new capital is not far from the Ice Wolf Mountain, but recently the Beili Kingdom has suddenly blocked the news, for fear that there will be some conspiracy, the two little princes have assumed the names of Meng Sa, Meng Ying and his subordinates to infiltrate the Beili Kingdom in disguise!" The intelligence officer added as if he wanted to take credit.
The Lion King nodded, and then fell into deep thought. After some careful consideration, the Lion King gave an order to these subordinates as usual in an orderly manner: "Open the city gates, check closely, and count all those who go to Beili to deliver live coffins, ask about their families, where they live, pay special attention to and record the situation of those who return from sending live coffins, and inquire from these people about what they have seen and heard in Beili Kingdom, and of course, the whereabouts of the living coffins!" These have to be sent to me on a regular basis! The Lion King paused for a moment and then asked, "Is there a specific number of living coffins sent to Beili Kingdom before?" ”
"This ......" The surrounding officials looked at each other, all shook their heads, and avoided the dissatisfied, sharp eyes of the lion king, it was obvious that these officials were beginning to languid, after all, peace had been coming for seven years.
"There were more than 10,000 live coffins in the first year, and only a lot more in the next two years; It's only autumn this year, and there are already more than 10,000 of them! By now, no less than 30,000 living coffins have been sent out of the city gates! As if they had met a savior, the officials looked at General Chang Quyu, a handsome and heroic middle-aged man, who was answering the Lion King's question.
The Lion King looked at General Chang Quyu with satisfaction, and said solemnly: "If there are two generals like Chang Quyu, Xiyang City will be completely impregnable!" After speaking, the lion king shook off and left.
The eyes of the officials begging for help immediately turned into complaining eyes, and they collectively shot towards General Chang Quyu. Chang Quyu was not in a hurry, shrugged his shoulders, held the handle of his frighteningly big knife hanging on his waist, and swaggered to order the city gate to be opened and the planks to be laid.
Not long after the city gate was opened, Shi Cheng and Shi Jie's followers brought back the news that the two brothers had infiltrated the prince under pseudonyms and became mercenaries, and went with the prince to the new capital of Beili Kingdom-Beiwangting.
The Lion King began to regret letting his two sons go north to find out the news. I thought that the situation in the Northern Kingdom should be easy to grasp, but various information showed that there was an undercurrent surging within the Northern Kingdom, otherwise, the brothers would not have gone to the side of the crown prince of the distant Northern Court to find out the news. The Lion King began to feel a faint uneasiness in his heart.
After checking the sentry, the lion king felt exhausted, and then returned to the lion king's mansion. He asked the old servant to go to the study and light a stick of incense, the fragrance of which calmed him down. After the servant left, he lay down on the Taishi chair next to the desk in the study, quietly thinking about the current form. On his desk was a map of the country of North Liberia that he had just read.
"This map of the kingdom of Northern Liberia is outdated, because some of the people of the kingdom have migrated northward; We don't know anything about the northern hinterland of the Northern Liberty Kingdom, and perhaps even they themselves are not familiar with it. Thinking of this, the lion king began to realize that his two sons had gone to the north because of this, "It seems that they are prepared, and I don't need to worry too much, after all, their brothers have been trained rigorously since childhood." Thinking of this, the Lion King slowly exhaled.
"The phantom I saw on the watchtower should not be the nonsense of the sentinels, I seem to have seen this situation and this scene, I seem to have seen ......", the lion king probed from the depths of his memory, hoping to find the answer.
"Yes, it was eight years ago, the Northern Li Kingdom had been defeated, indicating reconciliation, and the rebellion in the south gradually subsided, but in the process of quelling the rebellion in the south, many soldiers began to hallucinate to varying degrees. Thinking of this, the lion king suddenly opened his eyes,
"We have to wait, I hope Xilong can arrive soon!" The lion king felt his heart be as anxious as fire.
"Beili Kingdom suddenly blocked the news, something big must have happened!" The Lion King suddenly trembled, "The old king of Beili has not shown up for a long time, has he died?" No, it won't, if you die, the message shouldn't be so good as it should be! - What happens then? …… Hey, forget it, don't think about it for now...... "The lion king felt a little pain in his head, and suddenly felt tired like never before, so he began to fall asleep deeply......
The next day, the lion king received a flying pigeon message from Xilong: Xilong's team is rushing to Xiyang City in the starry night, and it only takes one day and one night to arrive! In order to prevent accidents, the lion king once again ordered the city gates to be closed at night and increase patrols.
"Don't act rashly until the dragon arrives!" The Lion King called General Chang Quyu again and instructed again.
Another uneasy thing for the Lion King was the defense line of the Great Wall, but the 50,000 soldiers there—formerly all of his own and three students—had come under the control of the imperial court. Of course, even if something happens to the Great Wall, he will not be held accountable for it, but after all, he has a hot patriotic heart. In recent years, the open and secret struggle between the queen and the cabinet within the imperial court has continued, the corruption of officials at all levels has also increased, and the power of the city-states of Crystal City and Sea City has been expanding, and there is a tendency to gradually lose control and tend to be independent. Despite the difficulties, the Lion King and his three students did their best to maintain the stability of the Crystal Nation. After all, although the rights of the four are limited, they are widely loved by the people of the Crystal Country and have become the four pillars of stability in the Crystal Country.
For the lion king, the biggest headache is that his financial resources are not enough, and banning the trade of live coffins will make his financial situation worse, so he knows that there may be a conspiracy with the living coffin trade in Beili, and the lion king does not prohibit it.
"It is feasible to increase the tax amount to send live coffins to Beili Kingdom, as long as the prevention is increased!" The lion king stroked his gray and sparse beard and said to himself. At this time, another messenger sent a new letter brought by the carrier pigeon, which was an urgent letter from Xie Chunji, another general of the Lion King from the Western Regions. The letter was sloppy and appeared to have been written in a hurry. The gist of the letter was:
"Recently, a rancher who has never died has reported that more than 1,000 werewolves have ransacked the rancher's territory. The rancher's tens of thousands of sheep were eaten, and he, his family, and his servants were saved from being poisoned because they hid in the underground tunnels of their homes in time.
These werewolves are generally about two meters in size and have humanoid bodies. Its body color is dark brownish-gray, its abdomen is white, and its back is coppery with black streaks in the middle of its back, making it a clear junglewolf.
Timberwolves are generally hidden in the deep mountains and old forests, but it is rare for so many junglewolves to appear on the grassland.
The letter particularly emphasized that a werewolf can fight against ten with one, so the combat power of more than a thousand werewolves can exceed 10,000 soldiers, and Xie Chunji himself only commanded 7,000 troops, and he was short of food and medicine, so it was difficult to deal with so many werewolves! Reinforcements must be sent urgently! I hope that the Lion King will write to the court as soon as possible, and send a few more reinforcements and more supplies!
The letter also said: At present, we are recruiting some new soldiers around the Silk Road, about 3,000 recruits, although it violates the military order that troops cannot be recruited at will, but in order to maintain the safety of the Silk Road, we have to do this, I hope the prince can explain to the imperial court. Once the recruitment is complete, we are ready to assemble in Sand City. After all, the safety of Shacheng is related to the smooth flow of the entire Silk Road! ”
After reading the letter, the lion king's face was full of solemnity. The Lion King once heard Xilong say that werewolves have a strong sense of territory, and they will not leave the territory of the forest casually until they have to, and go to the grassland that is not suitable for their survival. Unless there's a major change in their territory!
"The most important thing now is to do everything possible to concentrate financial, material and human resources!" The lion king knew in his heart that he couldn't count on the mediocre court now, so he could only figure out his own way.
As a result, the order to raise the tariff on the country of North Li was soon issued. The number of living coffins has not decreased at all, but the income has increased considerably.
The day and night passed quickly, but the lion king still spent it in anxiety. Autumn passed quickly, and the plants in Xiyang City had gradually lost their luster before they knew it, exuding only a cold dampness.
The Lion King thought that twenty years ago he hadn't even heard of werewolves, thinking it was just a legend, but with the war of nearly twenty years, he felt that those legends, things that he thought did not exist, became more and more numerous. I don't know what to do if I didn't have Yuryu. This is thinking of his two sons again.
"It's already snowing in Beili's North Royal Court, are Shi Cheng and Shi Jie okay? And, of course, will she, their mother, ever come back? "The scent of sandalwood brings the lion king into his sleep, into his green and prosperous years......
