Chapter 51: The Storm (Part II)

At this time, the Venerable Lord of Yunling has put the doubts about the matter of the Sun and Moon Army on Qingcheng's head, and Qingcheng is not wronged.

At this time, Qingcheng's Venerable Lord Qing Zheng was also thinking about the same situation as Wanfu, the Venerable Lord of Yunling.

His face was solemn and heavy, and the irrepressible fear and confusion enveloped his mind like a black cloud before the rain.

Qingcheng, which is in the north of early spring, the temperature in the air has dropped to zero at this moment, and it seems that an unprecedented avalanche is brewing in history.

The same wisdom, the same thoughts, but Qingcheng Venerable Lord Qing Zheng will never doubt his head.

Therefore, Qingcheng set his sights on the Western Regions and the Ding Realm.

The Western Regions is located on the border of Yunling, and there is a distance from Qingcheng. It has a vast area and a different landscape.

Mountains, grasslands, deserts, river valleys, basins, glaciers, the terrain is dangerous, the seasons are very different, and the floods and droughts are uneven.

This makes the living customs and climatic characteristics of the Western Regions very unsuitable for outsiders to station, so it seems more mysterious there, and it has always been known that the Western Regions are good at witchcraft, backward but special, so this powerful power may come from the Western Regions.

However, the Dingjie, the reason why Qing Zheng will include the Dingjie into his circle of suspicion is because over the years, the business and trade of the Dingjie in Qingcheng has simply become the lifeblood of the people in Qingcheng.

With so much gold, but still weak and weak, unwilling to attach to any side of Wanling or Qingcheng, where did they get the confidence from, aren't Dingjie afraid that one day, Qingcheng and Wanling will expel his business, and then end the rich land of Dingjie?

Such an act is also quite suspicious.

Moreover, Qing Zheng knew better than the Wanfu Venerable Lord of Yunling about the tragic death on the banks of the Qinshui River, and knew that that kind of power could not be man-made, but more like a weapon.

This reminded him of a strange thing many years ago, that incident is not harmful to say important, but there is still some fear in addition to harm.

That is the mysterious disappearance of Duan Liu, the lord of the previous generation of Yunling, in Qingcheng.

Qingcheng imprisoned Duan Liu for a year, his face was completely destroyed in the fire of Yunling, and he endured the ugliness of the outside every day, and at the same time endured the unrelieved and painful feeling of Qingzhi's death in his heart.

And the people of Qingcheng, whether they were nobles or commoners, spit on and humiliated him, and the torment he suffered in the middle of that year made him miserable.

But just when Qingcheng thought that Duan Liu would one day commit suicide due to public humiliation, or die of hunger and cold, Duan Liu suddenly disappeared, without a trace, and evaporated from the world, neither the living nor the corpse were found.

And the little attendant who had been with him since Yunling was also gone, so Qingcheng Venerable Lord Qing Zheng concluded that this flow must have been waiting for an opportunity to escape, killing Qing Zhi, and being humiliated so much, he can still plot to escape, how ruthless this person's heart is, and how ruthless his plan is, you can imagine.

When his father was in his father's generation, the old lord of Qingcheng was willing to marry his sister Qingzhi to Duan Liu, and what he valued was his forbearance mentality and his enthusiasm and talent for weapon manufacturing beyond mortals, thinking that this person would be able to become a great material, but who knew that he had only been a lord for forty-three days, and then fled back with his sister's corpse.

However, Duan Liu did have extraordinary ability and foresight in weapon manufacturing, and the long-handled assassination weapons he made for Yunling, such as Ge, spear, and halberd, had a great connection with the invincibility and brilliant achievements of the Banzai Army.

Ge is used for local duels in hook and peck combat, spears are used for collective advancement of infantry camps, halberds can be slashed, stabbed and hooked, and used in individual hand-to-hand combat.

In the later period, Duan Liu also made crossbow arrows that could be fired automatically for Yunling, and the Banzai Army fought in battles, and the first three rows of soldiers in the infantry used that kind of crossbow arrows.

In the face of the oncoming enemy, the first row of infantry fired crossbow arrows, followed by the second row of soldiers to shoot, and then retreated, replacing the third row of soldiers to take the lead in the battle.

Such tacit cooperation and well-trained shooting in turns greatly increased the long-range lethality of the Banzai Army's most dense infantry.

In the face of the advanced weapons made by Duan Liu, in the sharp and sharp courage of ten thousand arrows, the enemy on the opposite side turned on his back amid the wail.

Qingcheng relied on the weapons that were found in Yunling, and then spent two or three years studying them to make weapons with similar functions, but the combat power was still far behind those made by Duan Liu.

It was also with these merits that Duan Liu was named the seventh warrior on the list of Lingxiao Pavilion by the old lord.

Although the nobles at that time strongly opposed it, believing that the invincibility of the Banzai Army was mostly due to Wanfu's operational command and battle layout, and Duan Liu only provided the most primitive weapons, but justice was at ease in the hearts of the people, and such weapons beyond today's level could be created by no one except Duan Liu, and his merits were indelible.

And now the weapon that has eliminated the three thousand iron horsemen of the Sun and Moon Army is by no means those long and short cold weapons back then, this is a large weapon that can destroy human beings, is it also from the hands of that mysterious and sympathetic weapon god?

After all, it has been more than ten years since he disappeared, and no one knows where he is hiding now, so it is likely that where he is now is the source of this mysterious and powerful power.

Qingcheng Venerable Lord Qing Zheng was scared, and he trembled a little involuntarily.

If Duan Liu's resentment towards Yunling is certainly there, because he was forced to retreat by the aristocratic forces of Wanling, he burned himself in the fire, his appearance was completely ruined, and he became the target of Qingcheng's bullying.

Moreover, it is said that the first time Qingzhi went to the banquet in Yunling, this Duan Liu fell in love with his sister at first sight, and approached him regardless of the difference between men and women.

Seeing that when he came back with his sister's corpse at that time, he didn't care about his own pain at all, only cared about the heavens and the earth, and was so painful about Qingzhi's death, presumably he also had true feelings for his sister.

But what about Qingcheng?

Although Qingcheng said that he was taken in, it was better not to take him in, and the attitude of the people of Qingcheng towards him that year was unacceptable to any normal person, not to mention that he was still a former lord.

Now he is in seclusion, but he can still have such power to shock the world.

If he wants to come back to take revenge, then whether it is Wanling or Qingcheng, they will be his enemies for life.

Is the tragic death of the Sun and Moon Army his small punishment and big admonition to Yunling? Is this just the beginning?

Qing Zheng straightened up his somewhat distorted body, this matter is very important, it is not something that Qingcheng can do by himself, but how can he mention it to Lord Yunling?

Not to mention the tense situation between Qingcheng and Wanling in the past fifteen years, let's just say that the venerable Wanfu wanted to welcome the humiliated Duan Liu back to Wanling, and Qingcheng gave the statement at that time that Duan Liu had committed suicide, and even his bones did not agree to send back.

At that time, it was just an excuse for Duan Liu's mysterious disappearance, but I didn't expect it to become a lie that was difficult to recover at this moment.
