Chapter 278: It doesn't matter
Shaoguo's treasure ship returned from the overseas immortal island, but it did not bring the incense artifact they wanted, but a spiritual pond was also found in the White Emperor Pool, and at this moment, the rumors about the ruins and incense artifact had fallen into their hands.
A treasure ship that looked more like a warship was docked at a port in the south of Shaoguo, and the treasure light on the ship was circulating, and the entire dock was blocked by Shaoguo's Long Wuwei, and no one was allowed to approach.
Zhou Yang stood on the big ship, although his cultivation is not high, but his status in the present world is noble, this time for the incense artifact is to personally go down to the mountain and sea realm, it is enough to see the importance of this mission.
Of course, there is another reason in it, the Shao Kingdom has been founded for hundreds of years, although the current world has continuously strengthened its control over the Shao Kingdom, there is also a huge conflict of interest between the practitioners of the current world and the natives of the mountain and sea realm.
What's more, Shaoguo's own office also seems to have a tendency to get out of control.
This made Zhou Yang extremely cautious, because the time flow speed of the Mountain and Sea Realm and the current world is different, the outside may have been in the past ten and a half days, and the Mountain and Sea Realm has already changed the sky, this time his other purpose of entering the Mountain and Sea Realm is to see what problems have arisen in their control of the Mountain and Sea Realm Shaoguo, and how big the problem is.
But as soon as he entered the realm of mountains and seas, he found that the problem was even more serious than he imagined, not only the Shaoguo Office, but even the Qin Tianjian and the mountain gods and water masters of the Shaoguo were gradually out of their control.
Zhou Yang was worried, but the most important thing was to find the incense artifact, Shaoguo was just their layout in the mountain and sea realm, but the incense artifact was related to the stability of the present world, which was more important, Zhou Yang was very clear.
It's just that Zhou Yang's search for the incense artifact was unsuccessful, and when he came back, he received heavy news again, which suddenly made Zhou Yang's already worried heart even more severe.
"What? Lu Zhou is dead?"
As soon as Zhou Yang stepped off the warship, he confronted the Lingtailang of Qin Tianjian who sent the news to him, "What's the matter? Didn't we say that everything is for stability, how could Lu Zhou die?"
Lin Shu and Lu Wu, who were holding the Dongyuan Sword, also had heavy faces at the moment, Lu Zhou himself was an important member of them, not to mention that he was one of the few masters in the world who were proficient in refining weapons and alchemy, and the death of such a figure was a heavy blow to them.
The monks around him recounted everything that happened before, and the ruins suddenly appeared, and the secret news about the corner of the heavenly realm that fell thousands of years ago made Lu Zhou attach great importance to it, because most of the power went to the overseas immortal island, and Lu Zhou personally led people to the 100,000 Great Mountain.
More than a dozen third-order monks gathered in the 100,000 mountains, and the sky fell apart, and Lu Zhou died in the ruins, and finally Lu Zhou's disciple Kong Huai obtained the incense artifact, but in the end he couldn't come out, and with the ruins closed, he also stayed in it.
A series of blockbuster news one after another, Zhou Yang, Lu Wu, and Lin Shu were dumbfounded, and their group went overseas, worked hard, made all preparations, and died a large number of monks, and finally opened the White Emperor Pool, and the harvest was huge, but they did not find the incense artifact they wanted.
And when they were away, the relics of gods and demons that fell from the heavenly realm were found in the 100,000 mountains, and Lu Zhou even found the incense artifact they were looking for.
Lin Shu held the Dongyuan Sword, and her face also showed a trace of sadness, she had been in the mountain and sea realm for so long, she was also used to seeing life and death, but the death of a familiar person like Lu Zhou also made it difficult for people to let go: "Lu Zhou's qualifications are not enough, and he is also old, I'm afraid he himself knows that he can't seek immortality, so he is desperate to fight to the death!"
Lu Wu shook his head, he was taken care of by Lu Zhou a lot on weekdays: "Old man Lu! Alas, it's a pity, I thought I could fight for a good position in the Divine Dao for him!"
"Now I don't even know if he can be reincarnated, and if he dies in the hands of a third-order monk, I'm afraid it will be difficult for his soul to escape. ”
"But his apprentice can be regarded as helping him avenge him, otherwise, forget it, I really can't beat that armor. ”
"This old monster has pressed our Shao Kingdom to bow down to Dahuan for many years, and I didn't think that he was still dead!"
"Kong Huai?"
Zhou Yang was shocked, and immediately called up the information about Kong Huai from his mind, the identity of every living person in the mountain and sea realm was deeply remembered by him, each of these people was an important chess piece in the mountain and sea realm, and it was also the key factor for them to maintain control of the situation in the mountain and sea realm.
"So, this Kong Huai is still in the ruins?"
"Immediately collect all the clues and information, and judge what the chances of this Kong Huai are surviving!"
"Then at all costs, try your best to enter the ruins again and bring out Kong Huai and the incense fire artifact!"
Zhou Yang immediately made a judgment based on the information he already knew, although the incense artifact was not found in the White Emperor Pool, but because of Lu Zhou, they did not miss the 100,000 mountain ruins this time.
At present, it seems that his side has a very big advantage and has taken the lead.
And Zhou Yang didn't know that at this moment, a large number of soldiers and horses of the five countries, as well as their own generals and monks, gathered near the ruins of the 100,000 mountains, cleaning up the mess after the war, the fire burned the nearby mountains into a bare piece, the corpses and traces of the monks' battles were everywhere, the corpses floating up and down the Li River came down one after another, and the corpses of soldiers and monks in different costumes could be seen downstream from time to time.
However, after the other four countries joined forces to exterminate the Yi people, they quickly united and launched an attack on Shaoguo, and forced Shaoguo's army back to the Li River.
The army of Shao Kingdom only welcomed back a few people who escaped from the ruins, and a large number of low-level warriors and ordinary soldiers forcibly stepped on the pontoon bridge or swam directly across the river, and were chased and killed by the monks and warriors of the four countries, and the blood stained the river red.
The losses were heavy, and the army was almost completely annihilated.
The four kingdoms of Pan, Bai, Zheng and Li built a city near the ruins, excluding Shaoguo and jointly excavating this ruin.
Everyone knew that the people of Shaoguo had obtained the incense artifact, and thinking of the power of that arrow, the fourth-order armor was shot to death like an ant, and his soul was scattered.
If Shaoguo gets this incense artifact and shoots an arrow at the capitals of various countries, the thought of this scene will make all countries frightened.
"You must not let Shao Guo get this incense artifact, even if you can't get it, you can't let Shao Guo get it!" This is the idea of the other four countries, and even the high countries far away in the sky.
————————————————-
Shaoguo, lower reaches of the Li River.
Fang Xiu walked on the bank of the Li River with a dragon horse with hair like flames, and from time to time he could see corpses flowing down from the upstream, and in some villages along the river, many Shaoguo people pointed at the river, many of them were Shaoguo's soldiers, and they knew it by looking at their clothes.
The boats passing by on the river, and the boatmen and merchants who put on them, also looked at the upper reaches of the Li River in amazement, not knowing what was going on there.
But when they reached this point, they saw a whirlpool in the water, and the corpse sank and disappeared without a trace.
The rivers in this area of Shaoguo have water owners, and there is order, so only the villages can be seen in this area, if there is no owner of the river, the demons in it are chaotic, and no one dares to live within dozens of miles of the river.
"Law ~ Law ~ " The horse snorted, as if he was reluctant to repair, but he was unwilling to leave himself, he had been the master of this water for decades, and he was worshiped and believed in for a long time, and he was reluctant to leave his own water house.
"Why don't you go back to the secluded capital with me?" Fang Xiu looked at this dragon horse, this horse seemed to be a little scared, and a pair of big smart eyes were swaying on the left side of the purr.
Fang Xiu didn't care either, and laughed: "It looks like you're quite moisturizing with this Dragon King, and you don't want to go back." ”
"Well, then you can stay in this Dongzhou!"
Fang Xiu pondered for a while and said: "You have been with me for a short time, driving me all over the Eastern Continent and crossing the Northern Continent is also considered hard, if someone summons you with a preaching jade slip in the future, you can go with him, if you can really use the luck merit of the Fulong Court, once you succeed, maybe you will be able to incarnate this Lijiang River God." ”
Fang Xiu looked at the Li River, which was wide and vast, like the blood of the earth: "This Li Jiang River God runs through the north and south, stretching for thousands of miles, although it is not as good as the big river, but it can be regarded as worthy of the person of the righteous god of the party." ”
However, this dragon horse didn't know at all, if it returned to the secluded capital with Fang Xiu, not to mention this Fang Lijiang River God in the future, it was the Four Seas Dragon God, and it would do it.
However, at this moment, it only remembered what its master Xudu said about the god of Lijiang River, and was full of joy that he did not have to go back to the dark and dayless capital, and that it was possible to dominate the entire Lijiang.
This dragon horse turned into a red dragon for the last time, carrying Fang Xiu happily and heading towards the sea.
At this moment, a heavy immortal ship like a mountain came from among the clouds, broke through the clouds, and arrived in front of Fang Xiu, who landed on it.
The dragon circled around the fairy ship again and again, as if knocking goodbye, and let out a few dragon roars before leaving.
Fang Xiu didn't look back at it again, the immortal officials and demon officials who came to pick him up changed again, prostrate in front of Fang Xiu, the mountains roared and the tsunami, but Fang Xiu only felt a little bored.
just said: "No need to be polite, the Hundred Bone Spirit Ruins ship turns around and returns to the hidden capital!"
The chess pieces that should be laid are all laid out, and there is no need for Fang Xiu to stay in this Dongzhou anymore, even if it is in the hidden capital, it is enough to control it, it is enough to pay attention to it from time to time.
Who became the True Dragon, who could become the next Saint, didn't matter to Fang Xiu.
The important thing is that the true dragon will definitely come out, as for which of the nine people is, who will create a new dynasty in the end, it is the same for Fang Xiu.
Even if Tang Li did not become the fifth saint, then someone would replace him as the fifth saint, and the seeds of righteousness would inevitably be planted, and as for any other accidents and mistakes, just let them develop.
The big ship was hidden in the stratus clouds like a mountain, Fang Xiu climbed all the way to the top, looked back, and looked at the entire Dongzhou.
No matter who succeeds or who fails, as long as everyone is moving, they will become a son in his chess game, and it doesn't matter if they win or lose, because on both sides of the board, he is the only one who sits.
