Over time, the Jade Rabbit jumped and jumped to carry Cao Shen and Yang Shang back to the future.

But just when the Jade Rabbit stepped on a wave with its forefoot, the inexplicable force tore the two back into the long river of time.

Plop –

Before they could take any precautions, Cao Yang and the others fell from the sky again, and involved the young man who was drinking with his head bowed by the water's edge.

Cao Ling, 18 years old.

This year, he went to Dongtu with his godfather Huo to go to the east with his illness, and was stationed in Taiming Mountain halfway, and was ordered to go out to do tasks. But when he was drinking water by the river, he ran into his future descendant and life-saving benefactor, and was thrown into the river by the two.

After struggling in the water for a while, Cao Ling took the lead in climbing to the shore, and then took a rope to rescue Cao Shen and Yang Ling ashore.

The three of them looked at each other and were speechless for a moment.

Cao Ling was already seriously injured and unconscious when the two crossed last year, and he didn't communicate much, he lit a bonfire and looked at the two quietly.

After all, Yang Shang is not a descendant of Cao Ling, and his expression is still a little calm. But Cao Shen is different, the first time he traveled back to the past and smashed his own ancestors. Now I crossed again, but I ran into my ancestors again, and I got them into the river. It's simply an unfilial descendant!

But since it was my own ancestor, it should mean that how long time has passed?

Yang Shang looked at Cao Shen, then at Cao Ling, and took the initiative to ask: "Cao Ling's ...... First...... Pavilion ......"

After hesitating for a long time, Yang Shang didn't know how to call Cao Ling.

Mr. Senior?

As the ancestor of his own table, it is really difficult to call it.

"Call me Cao Ling. Cao Ling said generously: "Your matter, I heard my father-in-law and Wu Anjun mention it afterwards. You're from the future, but I'm about the same age as you at this age, so it's more appropriate to call me by a name for the time being. ”

"What time is it?"

"The New Year's Festival has passed, and when spring ploughing is underway, only a few dozen days have passed since you returned to the future. ”

The two said in unison: "It's only been a few dozen days?"

Cao Yang and the others were very surprised. In the long river of time, although they can't feel the passage of time, but the jade rabbit has been jumping for so long, and only dozens of days have passed in the outside world?

Cao Ling has some understanding of his father-in-law's Jade Rabbit plan: "Let's bake the clothes first, and when I finish the task, I'll take you to find your father-in-law." ”

"By the way, where is that? You...... The old ancestor is on a mission again?" asked Cao Shen with a concerned face.

The ancestor must not have an accident, he has an accident, and he indirectly involves his own family.

"This is Mount Taiming, in your time, I don't know if there is. ”

"Dongyue Taishan?" Yang Shang blurted out: "Taishan Bixia Temple!"

Cao Shen also subconsciously looked at his companions. After all, the mother family at the same table is from Mount Tai, and she is the witch goddess official in front of the throne of Bixia Yuan.

"You know a lot, it seems. Cao Ling took a branch to stir up a bonfire: "At present, our group is stationed in Taiming Mountain. Because there are traces of demon activities around, our father-in-law asked us to come out and explore the surroundings, and set up the sun stone by the way. ”

"Sunstone?"

"Why, don't you know? Didn't you say that there were also demons in your time? The Sun Stone is to attract the divine power of the Great Ming Zun to protect the divine domain, which can expel the demons within a mile. ”

The divinity of the sun god and the goddess of darkness are mutually reinforcing. Since the demons are from the underworld and from the darkness, they are naturally restrained by the power of light.

The sun god creates the "Sun Stone" with divine power, and as long as the sun stone is stored, it can automatically reflect the sunlight and dispel the surrounding demons.

Cao Ling said as he took out a few golden gravels the size of a fingernail from his pocket: "Look, this is it. As long as you place these stones near Mount Taemin and build an altar, you can expel the demons. ”

Yang Shang and Cao Shen took the stone and looked at it for a while, their eyes showing different colors.

In their time, there was no Great Ming Zun, and there were no Sun Stones.

"Since it is the spring planting season, presumably the trade and peace talks of the eastern countries have been completed?"

"We're on our way there. Cao Ling explained slowly to the two.

Originally, Huo Qubing and Zhao Gao did not plan to raise Mount Tai on the way to the Eastern Kingdoms. However, there are demons wandering near Taiming Mountain, and they dare not slack off, fearing that the demons will occupy Taiming Mountain first, so they can only launch it first.

"You two...... What are your plans next?meet my father-in-law with me, and then return to the Spirit Palace, or ......?"

"Naturally, I stayed and helped. Cao Shen said without hesitation: "We will stay and help establish Taiyue." Taiyue is the first of the five mountains, and the place where the emperors of our country sealed Zen. ”

Yang Shang: "That's right, the two of us are also subordinates approved by Wu Anjun, since we encounter this kind of thing, how can we sit idly by?"

Of course, they don't know. The reason why they returned to this era was the result of Bai Qi's secret promotion.

In order to prevent Sun Boyu from being ordered to support Taiming Mountain, then the relevant matters must be completed as soon as possible, and the real composition of Mount Tai must be completed first.

After the three rested, Cao Ling took the two to inspect the mountain road.

On the way, they encountered a large number of demons. These demons inhabit Taiming Mountain, and everywhere they pass through are eroded by poisonous mist, and their vitality is extinguished.

In a short time, they passed through a valley. The cliffs are covered with upside-down night-blood demon bats, and there are no less than 10,000 demon bats in a rough count.

Yang Shangxiao's face turned pale: "There are so many monsters in Taiming Mountain?"

"It should have come recently. Cao Ling's face was also very bad, they came to Taiming Mountain yesterday morning. Unexpectedly, in just one day, the number of demons actually increased several times. You know, the number of demon bats yesterday was only 5,000!

"These monsters are aware of the small world aura in Taiming Mountain, and they plan to attack Taoyuan Village. ”

Ji Le runs the world with the Qinghua god and completes the integration of the world and Mount Taiming, resulting in Mount Taiming being covered with Qinghua Daoqi, which has a fatal attraction to undead monsters.

Noting down the number of demon bats in the valley, Cao Ling and the others found a secluded place.

"That's it!" Cao Ling: "It's very simple to build an altar, mainly prepare three square stones to build a platform. That's what you're going to do, right?"

"Of course, we are not living in vain in this era. Cao Yang and the others rolled up their sleeves and helped Cao Ling build a square platform on the side. Then Cao Ling placed the sun stone on the square platform.

In an instant, golden light fell from the sky, and five-colored millilight rose from the square platform, forming a ring of solar corona, forcing the surrounding demons to leave one after another.

Not only Cao Ling, but other soldiers who went out to do tasks also used the sun stone to decorate the altar, and hundreds of small altars were raised throughout Taiming Mountain, wrapping the entire foothills in sunlight.

"Huh?" In the sky, the sun god who was in charge of driving the golden car sensed it and looked in the direction of Mount Taiming.

As far as his eyes could see, he saw a majestic mountain standing in the future.

"This is the so-called Dongyue in Great Xia?"

Dongyue, also known as the Mountain of the Sunrise, is the first of the mountains in the East.

"Interesting, this peak is not very high, but it is just right on the path of my survey. Moreover, the mountains connect the heavens and the earth, leading the light of the sun and the moon upwards, and the nine gloomy weather below. Perhaps, this is also the special concept of these famous mountains and rivers in the Xia Kingdom, right?"

The famous mountain built by the Xia Kingdom, if it can't reach the divine realm and the nine shadows, it will be embarrassed to be a famous mountain.

"But this kid is surrounded by the power of the sun, as if he is my descendant?"

The sun god looked at Yang Shang with a different color.

As a descendant of Yang Ke, Yang Shang inherited the blood of the sun god. But in the eyes of the sun god, the boy was like his own descendant.

But he clearly remembered that he did not leave a descendant in the Xia Kingdom.

"Looks like we're going to look it up. Could it be that one of my descendants has merged into Great Xia?"

......

When Cao Ling's group returned to the camp, they saw Zhao Gao, Huo Quai, and Yu Yuan discussing and researching about Taiming Mountain.

Zhao Gao: "Our first task is to send an envoy to the East, although Taiming Mountain is very important, but this is not our mission. It is not worth delaying the main task for this reason. And at present, the demons are blocked by the power of the sun, and Taiming Mountain is worry-free for the time being. ”

Huo Quzhi touched his chin and groaned, "It's not that simple. The demons got the news too quickly, we all knew Taiyue after Ji Le's instructions, why did the demons act so quickly?"

"Maybe it's a coincidence? After all, Tai Mingshan is very angry, and they mistakenly think that there are creatures here, and it is not impossible to come and look for food. ”

"But we came yesterday and spent a day expelling, why didn't we see the demons retreat?"

Yu Yuan had a torch erected beside her, and she asked softly, "The general suspects that when the demons learned of our plan, they deliberately sent people over to prevent us from establishing Dongyue?"

"Possibly. ”

"So, does the general want to stay and defend?" Zhao Gao said sharply: "The task of the general and I is not here. We have already strengthened the power of the sun god, so we can ask Your Highness to send someone over. Our priority was to buy slaves from the countries of the East. ”

Yu Yu also felt that Zhao Gao's words were reasonable: "I think, it's better to send a message to ask His Highness to send someone." I remember that Sun Boyu is fine at the moment, and the cave world in Taiming Mountain is his clansman, and it is impossible for him not to be unreasonable. In this way, the general can rest assured, right?"

"Sun Boyu?" Huo Quzhi thought of this man who preferred to drill camps and had a utilitarian temperament, with a little hesitation on his face.

But Yu Yuan was right, if Sun Boyu was there, he couldn't be unwilling.

"Father-" Cao Ling suddenly opened the curtain and came in: "Here, we still have a force, and we don't necessarily need domestic reinforcements." ”

Huo Quzhi was about to kick him out, when he suddenly saw the two people following behind him, and asked in shock, "Why are you here?"

"This ......" Cao Shen scratched his head and said that the two accidentally fell into the water and hit Cao Ling.

"What a coincidence. Zhao Gao looked at the three of them and said slowly: "You just said that there are still our people here?"

"In the attached cave in Taiming Mountain, there is still Lord Cai Ji, isn't there?"

"Cai Ji?" Yu Yuan's heart moved: "Yes, we can't do it alone, if we can contact the inside of the world, communicate with Cai Ji, and with the help of the Earth Mother Artifact in her hand, we can expel those demons around us." ”

Zhao Gao: "It's that simple. His Royal Highness personally took action to integrate the big world where Taoyuan Village is located into Taiming Mountain and form a subsidiary cave. However, at present, Dongtian is closed to the dragon vein, and it is impossible to communicate at all. That's why Sun Boyu needs to come forward, after all, his family members are all there, so it is convenient to resonate with the bloodline spirit technique. ”

That's right, this is also a scene that happened in Bai Qi's memory.

It was Sun Boyu and Cai Ji who joined forces to open the passage between the cave world and the outside world.

"It doesn't necessarily need Sun Boyu and them to come over. Huo Quzhi stared at Yang Shang and Cao Shen with a little understanding.

Bai Qi deliberately asked me to bring Cao Ling here, didn't he guess that these two boys would appear here? Could it be that they are helpful for us to garrison Taiming Mountain?

"Yu Yuan, help me check on the two of them. ”

Yu Yu waved her hand and shrouded Cao Shen and Yang Shang with red light, her eyes gradually brightened, and she pointed at Yang Shang and said, "You follow me to learn the spell of the Spirit Palace and try to contact Cai Ji." ”

In her perception, the blood in Yang Shang's body vaguely resonated with Taiming Mountain, which was obviously related to the future Dongyue.

Cao Ling said again: "Except for the clansmen inside Taiming Mountain, this place is very close to Kalo City, and you can go there to borrow some troops temporarily. ”

Because of Yang Luan's cultivation in Caro City, the royal court specially stationed an army to protect the princess.

"Yang Luan?" Yu Yuan was the first to refuse: "Yang Luan's girl needs the protection of that army, and she can't use it casually." ”

"Not necessarily. Huo Quzhi retorted: "There is nothing else to do over there for the time being, and Nangong himself is there, so you can borrow part of the army first." After we build Dongyue, we can not only return the army. Moreover, with Dongyue Town guarding here, only one checkpoint is needed to block all the eastern countries outside the battle line of Mount Tai and Kalo City. ”

It can be said that Dongyue Taishan is a position of great strategic significance. In the future, as long as the Xia Kingdom jammed Caro City and Mount Tai, it would be able to guard against the invasion of the Eastern Kingdoms.

"Then I'll go!" Yu Yu was still about to speak, but Cao Shen was eager to try: "I am familiar with Kalo City, as long as the general gives me a token, I will definitely be able to borrow the royal court guards." ”

Huo Quzhi did not immediately agree, but asked Zhao Gao: "What do you say?"

Zhao Gao and low secretly thought: We have something to do, and it is inconvenient to stay here for a long time. But if Mount Tai can be truly established, and there is an army to defend it, it can be regarded as a backing, so that we can continue to negotiate with the eastern countries, which can be said to be a basis for advance and retreat. Even if the slaves are brought out later, they can be sent to Taiyue to live, instead of being directly transported back to China.

"Well, then please stay here. But I'm going to take someone to the first step and rush to the negotiations. ”

"Yes. ”

......

Huo Qubing and others actively launched an operation, trying to mobilize the army of Carlo City to defend Taiming Mountain.

However, these people are not clear. At present, the country is also facing a big change.

"Yuan Xi is missing?" Ji Le suddenly got up and looked down at Mu Yan: "Is the news accurate?"

"It is news from Her Highness's Sanctuary, it is said that the goddess did not return to the Sanctuary, and the sacred fire left in the temple was suddenly extinguished. ”

Ji Le paced in front of the case: "Wasn't she still in China a few days ago?"

"It seems that because of something, I suddenly went abroad. ”

According to the results of Mu Yan's inquiry, a few days ago, Japan Xi was helping the people to cultivate the land in China. Suddenly received a message, and then left in a hurry, and then lost contact.

Su Yu walked in from the door, saw Ji Le's gloomy face, and approached cautiously: "I went to the temple to ask, and several witches couldn't sense the trace of the Xisheng." ”

"Hmph! Can't sense their own chief priest? What are they doing on weekdays? Are they sleepy and lazy!"

Su Yu didn't dare to answer the question, and stood obediently in the hall.

"Forget it, Su Yu, you go and try, go to the Chengtian Temple to sacrifice in person, and sense Yuan Xi's traces. ”

"Me?" Su Yu looked confused, her main sacrifice god was not Yuan Xi at all, and it was more difficult to communicate with the gods with witchcraft than those witches in the harvest temple.

"Forget it, unreliable guy. Seeing Su Yu's expression, Ji Le looked disgusted: "Go and find Yu-Cui Jing and let her try to communicate with Xisheng." ”

Yu Yuan went abroad, and the Nangong family was busy taking care of her daughter, and she is currently living temporarily in Caro City. Of the three great witches of the Ling Palace's generation, only Cui Jing could be relied on.

But although Cui Jing wants to show her strength in front of Ji Le and show her talent that is not inferior to Yu Yuan, she is not Yuan Xi's witch and has no way to find Yuan Xi's whereabouts.

Not long after, she and Shen Zongbu came to ask for sin.

"Your Highness, the concubine is incompetent, and she can't perceive the existence of the Western Sage at the moment. It seems that there is a layer of fog shrouding fate, which makes people unreal. ”

Seeing Zongbu Shen, Ji Le didn't want to give Cui Jing a face, and said lightly: "Forget it, it has nothing to do with you, I'll go and ask someone else." ”

He had a vague premonition that Yuan Xi's disappearance was not simple, especially when he was preparing to be busy building Dongyue Taishan, which was a bit too much of a coincidence.

"Forget it, ascend to the palace, and call everyone over!"

Ji Le ordered Cui Jing to ring the bell outside, and found a group of people such as Nu Hao and Shi Huang to discuss this matter together.

"Yuan Xi is missing?" The woman was also surprised: "With the strength of this goddess, who can hurt her on the earth?"

Shi Huang and Yi Zhi nodded one after another.

That's right, it's the earth. Under the protection of Shui Huan, Yuan Xi's defensive power is comparable to that of a superior god, and as a god of wind, his escape methods are first-class. Not to mention that she still has the talisman left by the sun god on her body. No matter how bad it is, you can also return to the Xia Kingdom through the temple induction and space shuttle.

"Is there a misunderstanding? Except that the flame in the temple is extinguished, there doesn't seem to be any other indication that she's missing, right?"

"The sacred fire of the temple is a symbol of the gods marking the sacred area of the temple. The extinguishing of the flame of Moto-hee itself means that it is unusual. Ji Le said: "Something must have happened to her, Cui Jing can't even perceive her existence at the moment, and is blocked by a special force." I suspect that someone took the initiative to harm her. ”

"So, is Your Highness going to save people?" Seeing Ji Le's expression, Bai Qi suddenly asked, "Does Your Highness plan to go in person?"

"Go in person?" Without thinking, Emperor Shi sternly refused: "No! As the god of the country, Ji Le must stay in the country." ”

"That's right, that's right!" Yi Zhi: "This kind of thing, we will send someone to find it, and we don't need to come forward in person." ”

Ji Le looked around, everyone's attitude was the same, obviously unwilling to let Ji Le take the risk.

So, he took a step back: "Then Li Jing and Sister A will personally lead the troops-"

"Your Highness. News came from the royal court. A witch hurriedly came in and reported: "The demon clan has been found near the border platform of our country, and the monarch has asked the lady of the Yongle Palace to provide support. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, another witch ran in: "Your Highness, Lord Taibu has observed the heavenly machine and noticed that there are demonic disasters and catastrophes in the three kingdoms of Wenlan, Yushuang, and Baihe, which are subject to Great Xia, and you need to take precautions as soon as possible." ”
