Chapter Twenty-Eight: This Is What I Should Do
Between the woodlands, the peasants had already surrounded Shengqi and Shock.
It's just that the people in the farmer's family have no intention of doing it.
Katsuchi's rough face flashed with a puzzled expression. For the first time, he found that the movements of the farmhouse were so elusive.
A gust of wind blew, stirring the branches and shasles. At the edge of the woodland, there is no shortage of figures that make Katsuchi feel familiar. In a trance, Katsuchi realized that he and the farmer might be about to part ways at this moment.
When ambition and friendship are intertwined, but you have to make a choice. The seemingly rough Katsuchi's heart is definitely not as calm as he seems on the surface now.
The face of the Zhu family, the master of Shennong Hall, was constantly changing, cloudy and uncertain. He let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to get an answer from the other party: "Katsuchi, why you?" ”
Juque pulled out from behind him, and Sheng Qiyi's sword pointed at the Zhu family, "Why?" As long as Tian Guang is still the leader of the farmer's family, then it will be difficult for me to have a way out in the farmhouse. ”
"Is that so? Xia Kui trusts you so much, but you finally threw yourself into Yingziyi. The facts are unpredictable, and the Zhu family has to sigh like this.
"Among the six halls of the farmhouse, the owners of the four halls are all from the Tian family. Tian Guang acted like this, as if he had regarded this farmhouse as his Tian family's belongings. How can this convince others? ”
Liu Ji smiled, and he who had been beside the Zhu family said at this moment: "All betrayers need a plausible reason. Shengqi, I didn't expect you to be the same. ”
In Shengqi's eyes, a fierce color flashed. Liu Ji is an undercover agent in a farmer's house for Ying Ziyi, and his identity is mysterious, and even the killer holding the eight swords of King Yue in the net does not know. All the liaison work is communicated with Ying Ziyi personally. Therefore, looking at Sheng Qi, whose identity was exposed at this moment, Liu Ji still had the leisure to laugh at him.
Liu Ji's words seemed to speak to Shengqi's heart. No matter what kind of traitor he is, he always has to find a reason for himself to cover up his actions, even Shengqi is no exception.
Shengqi turned Juque to the farmer's family, "If you want to do it, hurry up!" ”
Shocked Hawk pressed the long sword in Katsuchi's hand and sneered, "Let it go!" Shengqi, the people of the peasant family are not so bold as to dare to attack the people in the net. At least, in broad daylight, they didn't dare. ”
"That's true." The Zhu family's face was red with a monotonous smile, he bowed slightly, and said, "Please leave, two of you!" My farmhouse will not stop me. ”
The Zhu family waved their hand, and everyone in the peasant family gave way to a road.
"I don't dare." Laughing in shock, he turned back to Shengshengqi and said, "Let's go!" ”
Katsuchi didn't hesitate and followed the shocker out of here
Shushan.
"Shengqi has a very high status among the farmers. I've put a lot of effort into trying to force him out. ”
"In this way, Shengqi will not be able to stay in the farmhouse in the future."
Ying Ziyi listened to Tian Yan's words and said with a smile......
Tian Yan looked at Ying Ziyi, and the expression on his face didn't seem to be fake at the moment. In other words, when Shengqi left the farmhouse, the prince of the Qin State was not angry at all, or even cared at all.
Why? lost such an important eyeliner as Katsuchi. It also means that for the farmers, the movements of the No. 1 gang in the rivers and lakes, Prince Qin, is no longer able to grasp it. Why is he still so relaxed?
Could it be that, as he said just now, among the peasants, he has more than one eyeliner.
Whenever Tian Yan thought about it, her brows would furrow slightly.
Ying Ziyi inadvertently glanced at her and said, "You are not in good health, and you are thinking too much, it is really not a long-term way!" ”
Did that sentence just now concern me?
Tian Yan had a peculiar feeling in his heart. Tian Yan didn't know what this fleeting feeling was? Because Tian Yan has never had this feeling in his heart in his life for more than ten years.
Tian Yan wanted to catch it, but it disappeared in a flash. Even Tian Yan himself can't fathom its trajectory.
The sound of the horn interrupted Tian Yan's thoughts. Ying Ziyi raised his head, and outside of Shu Mountain, the Qin army finally began to act.
"Wherever the Imperial army goes, it always sends twenty waves of crossbow arrows first. Splitting mountains and breaking seas, invincible. However, this time for Shushan, this is an exception. ”
"Then I should really thank you." The elder of Shushan sneered. In his arms, Xiao Yu was coughing uncontrollably.
"You're welcome, this king has always been anxious."
The defense of Shushan was extremely weak, of course, it was equivalent to the offensive of the Qin army.
When the five horses broke through the earth and smashed through the gate set up between the two peaks in Shushan, the Qin soldiers rushed forward like a tide.
"I have already instructed that wherever the army goes, it must not hurt the people of Shushan in the slightest."
"What exactly do you want to do?" The elder didn't believe that Ying Ziyi would be so kind. The Qin army slaughtered the city, and the reputation of cruelty was known all over the world. He didn't believe that there was no conspiracy behind Prince Qin's kindness.
"I heard that the people of Shushan are good at raising silkworms and weaving brocade. It is said that you people in Shushan weave brocade cloth, and even the Jinguan City cannot be compared. This king is eager to see it. ”
"That's it?" The elder of Shushan was very surprised, in his opinion, there were too many things in Shushan that were worthy of Prince Qin's coveting. But what he didn't expect was that Prince Qin's greatest concern was not the Fusang Shenmu or the three-legged golden crow. It is actually a brocade of materials that the mountain people of Shushan trade with the villages and towns under the mountain every day. This is really nothing in the eyes of the elders of Shushan.
Tian Yan is different, she pays attention to Ying Ziyi, and also pays attention to everything under Ying Ziyi's jurisdiction. She naturally knew how prosperous the jade road of the past was now after Ying Ziyi attacked and destroyed the Yue Clan and dominated the Western Regions. On that road, caravans came and went. Now, for the people in Xianyang City, it is not surprising that when they wander around the city, they see merchants in the strange West Land. And the most valuable item on this road is silk. This trade route is now also known as the Silk Road. Tian Yan even heard that in the Western Regions, a foot of good Shu brocade can even be exchanged for a fine military horse. The Qin Emperor and the Qin Crown Prince relied on this trade route and grabbed huge profits. A large part of the construction of the various projects proposed by Guanzhong Xindu and Yingziyi to the Qin Emperor was sustained by the profits brought by this trade route.
Tian Yan suddenly realized in his heart, no wonder Ying Ziyi wanted to attack Shushan. For Prince Qin, any three-legged golden crow and any Fusang god horse are empty. Only real profits are real.
When Prince Qin held Shushan in his hands, he held the largest source of supply of Shu brocade. Then, Prince Qin undoubtedly grasped the most reliable source of wealth on this Silk Road.
For Ying Ziyi, the biggest significance of attacking Shushan is to be able to get a large number of exquisite Shu brocade. Whether it is now or in the future, the Silk Road is of great significance to the Qin State. Relying on this trade route for blood transfusion, that is, in the future, the six countries of the Kanto region will rise again, and they will come with a million troops, and Yingziyi will be sure to survive it.
The Qin army under the mountain, as Ying Ziyi said, did not disturb the people of Shushan in the slightest in the place of marching. Even killings rarely happen.
The Qin army occupied the transportation hub, the main road, and forced the mountain people of Shushan into their houses. A few people who dared to resist were also caught by the Qin army, whipped a few times, and honestly shrank aside.
"You want to enslave us." It was Xiao Yu who spoke, and as soon as her injuries recovered, she stood up and looked at Ying Ziyi, her eyes full of anger.
"Slavery or freedom! It's just two extremes in a substantive sense. Ying Ziyi casually plagiarized the content of a book she read in the villain space a few days ago.
Oh, my God! What did my brother say? Even my brother himself didn't understand.
Of course, even our protagonist doesn't understand what he's talking about, and the rest of the room can't either.
"What are you talking about?" Xiao Yu asked questioningly.
"You don't understand this?" Ying Ziyi spread her hands, looking like she couldn't communicate with you.
Ying Ziyi looked at the elders of Shushan and said, "As you said, Shushan will not give in. But so what, including Shushan, there are seventy or eighty thousand ordinary mountain people nearby. Women and children make up the majority. Could it be that the people of Shushan are all hard-hearted, and they would rather watch their wives and children being slaughtered, but also protect the glory and dignity of the nothing? ”
"I see." The elder of Shushan finally nodded weakly, it seems that Shushan has escaped the clutches of Prince Buqin.
"Whether it's Fusang Shenmu or three-legged golden crow! I have no interest in taking it away. Of course, this is also somewhere in between. ”
Ying Ziyi nodded and turned to leave. For the huge Fuso sacred tree, and the three-legged golden crow on it. Ying Ziyi has no interest in paying attention. Soon after, Tian Yan also left.
Watching outsiders enter and leave the holy land of Shushan freely like this. The elder sighed and walked under the Fuso Divine Tree. Looking at the three-legged divine bird, he said to Xiao Yu behind him: "I originally thought that the Qin army would attack the world and burn cities and destroy the walls wherever they went. In ten years, the six countries of Kanto were destroyed, and they were already very formidable opponents. But today, when I met Prince Qin, I understood what it meant to be truly terrifying. This demon wants to use the holy relics of my Shu Mountain as bait to enslave us. ”
"What should we do?" Xiao Yu asked.
"You, as well as your brother who is outcast, is the last hope of my Shushan. In any case, you have to live, from the hands of Prince Qin. The elder looked at Xiao Yu with a little meaning.
"Elder." Xiao Yu couldn't understand the meaning behind the elder's vicissitudes. But in the end, the girl nodded her head.
"We, Shushan, guard the ancient seal, this is our mission and duty. In the first war of that year, the Taoists slaughtered all of us, the inheritors of the ancient bloodline, by despicable means. At that time, only a few weak bloodlines were able to escape. For thousands of years, I know that only our Shushan lineage has finally continued. However, what the Taoists don't know is the heroic spirit of the great Chiyou King that our clan has been guarding. The ancient King of Chiyou, I have been looking for his inheritor. But now, I can't do it. Xiao Yu, find him and bring him back here, this is your duty and your brother's duty. ”
"What kind of person is he?" Xiao Yu asked. In the vast sea of people, the world is so big. It is really difficult for her to find a person with no characteristics.
"Maybe it's the same as described in the ancient books. Tall and mighty, handsome, and powerful, he was a natural warrior and leader. Like King Chiyou, he will lead the people to sweep away evil and bring life to the earth. ”
Violent Qin, this haze that is difficult to get rid of on the heads of many people. On this land, for people like Elder Shushan, it may be the greatest evil.
"Does such a person really exist?" Xiao Yu said with no certainty.
"There must be one." The elder nodded affirmatively, "Whether it is the ancient scriptures or the revelations handed down by the saints of our race, they all prophesy the existence of such a great soul. He has already been born, maybe under the oppression of Tyrant Qin, he can only hide now, but one day, he will be like a hero, standing tall in the eyes of the people of the world, bringing light to the world. ”
"I see."
"That's good." The elder smiled and continued to take a few steps forward, coming to the edge of the cliff behind the Fuso Divine Tree.
I don't know how many years it has been growing, and its huge root system is entrenched in this land, and some of it has been exposed to the soil.
The elder continued to walk at the roots of the trees, which were large, and the elder's thin figure was very small.
"Grandpa Elder, what are you going to do?" Xiao Yu ignored the injuries on his body,
"Shushan fell, although the treasure is there, it is no different from loss. The old and shameless can only die to comfort the ancestors. The old decay wanted to seal Yu Yuan with the blood spirit, so that the Qin people would not find out. Xiao Yu, tell your brother about the news of the heir. After the elder finished speaking, he jumped down and jumped into the bottomless cliff under the Fuso Divine Tree.
"Grandpa Elder, no"
Xiao Yu ran over quickly, wanting to stop it, but he couldn't stop it. She half-knelt on the root, stretched out one hand to the bottom of the cliff, and tears welled up on her face
Shushan, originally a land with continuous houses, has now been replaced by pieces of Qin army tents.
Ying Ziyi's tent is located in the center of the tent on this side.
There was not a trace of luster in the big black tent. Ying Ziyi sat upright in the tent, her eyes closed.
"Wall knock! Congratulations to the landlord, the first step of the decent protagonist training plan has been completed. Again, the system reminds that there is too much variability in the plan, and the system will not be able to predict the exact outcome in the end. If this plan is successful, they will be the biggest obstacle for the landlord to become the ultimate villain. ”
In the dark, Ying Ziyi smiled slightly, and her slender fingers gently tapped the tabletop. In the silence of the tent, there was a thumping sound.
It's already like this, what are you coercing. The decent gods are to play with them, ravage them, and finally destroy them, this is what every villain should do! (To be continued.) )
