The sky and the earth are dim, and everything is hazy, so it is called dusk. （19：00）

At night, the Batai looked down on the entire Yingdu like a giant beast, and the daunting seal inscriptions covered the entire appearance of the palace, isolating the sound of pain in the palace. Except for a gas lamp post emitting a pale yellow light, the rest of the palace fell into darkness, and in front of the gas lamp sat a bareback with a haircut, this person with a wide forehead, thin lips and slender eyes, and a pure red royal robe tied around his abdomen revealed his identity.

The sound of pain came from the mouth of the king of Chu Jiang, and his slightly white skin appeared densely covered with "black lines", which seemed to be chaotic, but if they were spread out into a flat surface, they would reveal a pattern of "surging rivers". These dense black lines are the "Chu River" map, and they are also the proof that they represent stepping into the first ladder of the "Chu River King" Xuan Jing.

The slender figure suddenly stepped out of the darkness into the range of the gas lamp, and she wore only a thin white veil, and the indescribable parts were clearly visible. She walked behind King Chu Jiang, her hands fell everywhere in the "black lines" like electricity, and thin needles of different depths pierced all over King Chu Jiang's upper body, and King Chu Jiang let out a low howl of pain again.

After about three incense sticks, the thin white gauze woman flicked her right hand, and an unknown number of fine needles jumped up from King Chujiang's body and gathered into her hand. The black lines on King Chu Jiang's body disappeared in an instant, and he let out a heavy sound of relief, "How is it?" A hoarse voice broke the silence in the palace.

"Three more times," the woman's voice was as sharp as a needle in her right hand.

King Chu Jiang slowly put on the pure red royal robe neatly, "three times", after King Chu Jiang said this sentence, he didn't know whether it was a question or a thoughtful word, and raised his hands upward, "Tom tom", dozens of hundreds of gas lamps were lit one after another, illuminating the entire Ba Palace without dead ends.

"Heavenly Immortal, is the Xuanmen really lost?"

"This question has been asked no less than a hundred times, and the answer of the heavenly immortals remains the same."

Just as those who climb to the ladder of "King of Chujiang" can be called "King of Chujiang", those who climb to the ladder of "Tianxian Niangniang" can be called "Tianxian". The two first-tier powerhouses did not do indescribable things in such an ambiguous environment, but talked about "Xuanmen", which will make many players complain.

"The way of heaven is still there, the saints also exist, and the relationship between the Xuan Realm and Kyushu is obviously still unimpeded, why did you lose the key to entering and exiting? Could it really be related to Ji Zhou Fengxuan? ”

"The immortals don't know".

No one knew the conversation in the palace, and there was no conflict between Hu Shandiao and Xia Xing and Tangtang, Xia Xing sent "Yipan too deep" out of the Yinggong Palace and returned, and Hu Shandiao returned to the main gate of the "Yunshui Palace" without saying a word.

Hu Shandiao was quite anxious in his heart, anxious about the matter of "tribute wine", he knew that he was powerless to stop many open guns and arrows against King Chu Jiang, he just wanted to complete the progress before King Chu Jiang died.

Liao Longji and Zhang Fen held the tribute wine list to compete, and Hu Shandiao suspected that the two of them were actually trapping him in the palace under the pretense of "cultivating"; If this is the case, it means that Liao and Zhang are suspicious of him. Pinning hope on others, this is a very depressing thing, Hu Shandiao thought about it and had no solution, he could only sigh for the night sky.

Xia Xing and Tang Tang took advantage of the gap in the adjustment of defense to discuss with Hu Shandiao, and Hu Shandiao transferred them to his side to facilitate their actions, and the three of them sat on the garrison tower and communicated in a low voice. It's impossible to be open and honest, it's more of a language trap, and it's easy for anyone to reveal some of their little secrets if they're not careful, and this kind of confrontation is really torturous for players.

Hu Shandiao doesn't like to fight wits very much, if possible, he prefers to use violence to solve everything, and now players who can't even enter the city use blood and tears to prove that violence can't solve everything. Especially in the matter of climbing the Xuanjing, violence is more likely to block one's own path, so that you have to change the path, and then fight wits and courage with grievances.

Eleven years ago, the Yan people cultivated a Yandi girl named "Feiyan" and let her step into the path of "Jiujiang Goddess"; The goddess of Jiujiang is the official position of the Shang Dynasty in charge of the nine great rivers to patrol the festival, and this official position is held by women, Jiujiang is the nine great rivers, and the Chu River is among them. The goddess of Jiujiang has the authority to restrain Jiujiang, so that you can understand the purpose of the Yan people to cultivate "Feiyan".

Players can climb to the seventh and sixth in just a few months, but the NPCs spend eleven years only allowing Feiyan to climb to the sixth ladder. Perhaps because of this, most of today's NPCs are about seven ladders of strength, which makes the real people who have just entered Kyushu suffer a lot.

Zhang Fen let Hu Shandiao see that there is a book called "Kyushu Senior Administration", which introduces the evolution of Kyushu's political form.

When Kyushu was not yet unified, it was "holy rule", that is, the sage controlled the government affairs of Kyushu. 5,619 years ago, "Qi" was supported by most of the saints to unify Kyushu, Kyushu entered the "Xuanzhi", the Xia Dynasty Guozuo 1,800 years ago, the Shang Dynasty Xia, the Shang Dynasty was also "Xuanzhi".

The Shang Dynasty was 1,700 years old, the Zhou Dynasty suddenly unified Kyushu, and the Zhou Dynasty was 1,500 years old, and Kyushu entered the era of the nations. The Zhou Dynasty cannot be said to have no support from the saints, but the saints who supported the Zhou Dynasty were very weak, and the Zhou Dynasty therefore adhered to the traditional "Xuanzhi" in the early five hundred years.

Xuanzhi is "Xuanxiu" to control the government affairs of a place, there is no centralized power or anything at all, and the Emperor of Kyushu is more like the leader of the tribal alliance. The Zhou Dynasty spent 500 years to complete the study of the "Three Thousand Xuanjing", and since then "Xuanxiu" has been subject to the Zhou Dynasty, and the Zhou Dynasty created the "Xuanshi Mansion", and the "Xuanxiu" was named "Xuanshi" and included in it, and Kyushu entered the "rule of man".

The Zhou Dynasty was a Kyushu dynasty in the true sense of the word, and the decrees of the Zhou Emperor could be implemented in Kyushu in a unified manner, unlike the Xia and Shang dynasties, where all states were autonomous. Therefore, the nations also inherited the political tradition of the Zhou Dynasty, and each country had a "Xuanshi Mansion", and ordinary people could hold official positions.

The reason why Hu Shandiao remembered the content of "Kyushu Senior Administration" was because of the "wrong path" between Xia Xing and Tang Tang, and the reason why Xia Xing and Tang Tang appeared in the Chu State Court Wei Mansion was because they found that their path had diverged. What does their divergence have to do with the political landscape of Kyushu?

Xuanjing is the official position, and the official position of the Xia and Shang dynasties is not "determined", who here refers to including the saints. The Xia and Shang dynasties were both "Xuanzhi", and Xuanxiu gained insights in the process of governing the government affairs of a place, so as to improve his strength and obtain official positions.

Most Xuan Xiu thought that this was the "Heavenly Dao", but after Hu Shandiao found that the Heavenly Dao was slapped in the face by Guanyin and the Silver Mist on the silver mist, he thought that the "Heavenly Dao" was also a saint, and he agreed with another statement - Xuan. Another way of saying it is that "Xuanxuan, Xuanji, Xuanmiao, and Xuantong" form "Xuan", which opened the heavens and split the earth to have Kyushu and dominate Kyushu.

"Heaven and earth have their own mysteries, everything has mysteries, broken machines are mysterious, and there are mysteries in hand."

Therefore, the political form of the Xia and Shang dynasties is in line with this sentence, but the "rule of man" after Ji Zhou Fengxuan ran counter to it, and Hu Shandiao could only think of one of the consequences, that is, "Guanyin" asked when he climbed the eight ladders, "Is it really Xuanmen?" That is, the sealing of the Zhou Dynasty, which made the "self-possessed Xuanxuan in hand" empty.

However, these are too far away, Xia Xing and Tang Tang entered the Tingwei Mansion to help "Feiyan" to correct their path, they wanted to seek the "Path Codex" of the Chu State through "Yan Concubine". According to outside rumors, the state of Chu has a complete "thirty mystical paths", but only the king of Chu Jiang is qualified to "see" or "take".

Hu Shandiao's plan for Xia Xing and Tangtang stopped at a high mountain, and these two people actually wanted to get their entire path at once, but it is estimated that they were also sick by the fork in the path. Hu Shandiao knew that the reason why Xia Xing and Tang Tang said these things half-truthfully was to use their identity as captains, which was also the reason why Hu Shandiao was unwilling to use the power of the two to help him get out of the palace too deeply.

If Hu Shandiao didn't reveal the player's identity, Xia and Tang would need to pay more benefits to curry favor with the captain, so that when they had to act, the captain would allow them to take a break or change shifts.

But after being exposed, Xia and Tang only needed to discuss with Hu Shandiao, and even more egregious, they could act directly without notifying Hu Shandiao, but Hu Shandiao still needed to cover for them. However, judging from the slightly frank actions of Xia and Tang, the two obviously still want to have a good relationship with Hu Shandiao.

Lu Yuanming came again, Hu Shandiao welcomed it very much, he was glad that he was on Lu Yuanming's line, otherwise, there would be no way to know about the tribute wine list. Lu Yuanming was planning the matter of "Coconut Yu Wine", and he must be extremely concerned about Zhang Fen and Liao Longji's actions, so Hu Shandiao could know the details.

If there is no "win hook" at the joint, Hu Shandiao believes that Lu Yuanming will definitely abandon him, but there are not so many ifs. According to Lu Yuanming, Zhang Fen has completed the preliminary process of the "Fude Wine" competition, and is now waiting for the "wine tasting" banquet on the ninth day of the first month of January, and the wine tasting banquet was tasted by King Chujiang alone.

In previous years, it was transported to the Ba Palace, and no one knew whether the King of Chujiang had tasted it, and there was no new tribute wine for decades, and it was rumored that the King of Chujiang had not tasted the wine at all. Perhaps to break this rumor, this year's wine tasting banquet was held in the "Qingyun Palace", and King Chu Jiang invited a large number of Chu ministers and foreign guests to participate, and Lu Yuanming was also on the invitation list.

There are still five days before the ninth day of the first month, and Hu Shan is thinking about visiting his boss's boss, Bai Shishi, and the reason why he wants to visit this captain Bai is to know the duty arrangement on the ninth day of the first month. If it weren't for the "Qingyun Palace", Hu Shandiao would have to find a way to transfer himself to the "Qingyun Palace" on duty.
