Half of the cup of tea on the table was already cold, leaving only a residual aftertaste in the surrounding air.

Liu Bang left, returned to Huyao City to stick to the border, and Xiang Yu was the only one left in the lobby. He sat quietly on the wild and restrained tiger skin chair, thinking back to what Liu Bang had said on this trip.

"Ahh

Xiang Yu took a deep breath, raised his arms and exhaled, making a sound like a beast's roar, then he reached out and grabbed a piece of loose hair, and walked towards the outside of the hall with broad steps.

Xiang Yu left his garrison camp and walked along the military passage, through the heavy soldiers, until he walked to the west of the city.

On the western edge of Longshun Castle is a huge wall that can be called a wonder. The hundred-meter-high wall, which protrudes from the border, far exceeds the width of the city, and stretches outward along the mountains and plains, and it is difficult to see its end at a glance.

As far as the eye can see, it looks like a long black dragon winding over the mountain wasteland.

This majestic and majestic long wall spans a geographical distance of thousands of miles, leading to another border city, Huyao City, a few miles away. The two cities were then connected by this kilometer-long city wall, and were placed horizontally on the border line, becoming a thousand-meter wall facing the ancient land.

This wall was built to defend it.

As everyone knows, the Ancient Land is the most mysterious place in the Three Realms, which has never been reached by human beings, and the name of the Ancient means ancient origin, however, no one knows how long this place has existed, maybe a thousand years, maybe ten thousand years, maybe longer than these.

It is only known that this is the place where life first flourished, and countless wild monsters are inhabiting it, and no one has ever set foot in it to see the strange. No one wants to enter it, and humanity knows it by heart - the Ancient Land is a forbidden area for human nature.

Even though people don't set foot in the Ancient Land, the countless terrifying demonic beasts that live in the Ancient Land can invade the human world!

In the three hundred and fifty-eighth year of the Yunjing calendar, the first invasion of demonic beasts broke out in the land of desolation, tens of thousands of wild monsters and demonic beasts suddenly rioted, invading the territory of humans, and the war between humans and demonic beasts broke out, and the war only lasted for a month, but it caused hundreds of thousands of casualties and countless resource consumption to the Qin Chu Kingdom.

In the three hundred and ninety-ninth year of the Yunjing calendar, the second invasion of demonic beasts broke out in the ancient land, less than half a century after the first war, the terrifying wild monsters and monsters invaded again, and their number was dozens of times that of the first time, this time the war lasted for a year, the casualties of the people and the consumption of resources in Qin and Chu were unimaginably high, and after the first war, the entire country was almost destroyed.

Six hundred and twenty-five years after a gap of two hundred years, the third demonic beast invasion broke out again......

756 years of the Yunjing calendar, the fourth ......

……

Then, every hundred years, a large-scale Warcraft invasion war would almost break out, and every war would cause unimaginable damage and casualties to the Qin and Chu Kingdoms. But every time they experience a war, human beings are also constantly improving, after wars and casualties, after the destruction of casualties again and again, the Qin and Chu people continue to improve the defense system of the border, and constantly develop special weapons against wild monsters and monsters.

In thousands of years of history, a total of seven large-scale wars of demonic beast invasion broke out in the Ancient Lands. After these seven disastrous wars, Qin Chu finally built this border wall that spanned thousands of meters!

The 3,250-meter-long giant wall is completely made of the hardest obsidian ramparts, and within the city walls of Longshun City and Huyao City, thirteen original defense towers have been embedded and established, which not only strengthens the defensive force, but also establishes powerful attack facilities, which can be described as both offensive and defensive.

This huge black wall that stretches for thousands of meters is Qin Chu's first and most important line of defense against the Ancient Land, the so-called land of a thousand jun!

Xiang Yu was standing on top of this thousand-meter giant wall at this moment, sniffing the wilderness breath coming back from the ancient land. He knew very well that the place he was standing on was related to the harmony and tranquility of the entire Qin Chu, and he knew very well that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavy.

The weather was cool, and the wild wind also carried the fragrance of the stamens, but Xiang Yu was not at all leisurely.

He looked up, but his mind was like a cocoon. He has been thinking about it in his heart, thinking about the Worm Pattern Bat, worrying - yes, Xiang Yu is very concerned, very worried, he is actually more worried about this matter than Liu Bang, he has been wondering if the appearance of this Worm Pattern Bat means that something is wrong in the palace.

In fact, the answer is obvious, how could the Empress Dowager Miyue use the Miyue bat to make such a joke?

But Xiang Yu didn't want to admit it or believe it, this was not getting rid of responsibility, but he was too responsible-he knew better than anyone how dangerous this desolate land in front of him was, and how heavy the responsibility on his shoulders was as the protector of the king!

In fact, for many years, the wild monsters in the Ancient Lands have not come out to attack people, which makes everyone relaxed, even the soldiers guarding the border city have begun to slack off. But Xiang Yu knew that the silent and silent ancient place in front of him was actually far from being as simple as people imagined.

More than 100 years have passed since the last ancient war, and if history repeats itself, then the days of peace and tranquility will probably not be long......

So Xiang Yu didn't dare to slack off, he actually couldn't take a step, and Liu Bang was the same, so they could only choose to believe that all this was a misunderstanding, and the palace was actually fine...... But inevitably, they are still worried......

His thoughts were too chaotic, which made Xiang Yu's brows furrow, and he shook his head suddenly, trying to shake off all the annoying things in his mind.

At this moment, a melodious and quiet flute sound floated from far away from the endless world, like a drop of ice and clear rain and dew on Xiang Yu's heart, gently washing away the boredom and worries in his heart.

When he heard the unknown and familiar flute, Xiang Yu suddenly calmed down, his mood was calm for a moment, he gently raised his eyes and looked at the ancient land from afar, his eyes were extremely gentle.

Xiang Yu looked at it from a distance, and all the outer edges of the desolate land that could be reached by Xiang Yu's eyes were jagged and dead dry stone land, which was extremely desolate and cold. Therefore, the ancient place that people always desolate is such a sinister place, a place of death where human beings can never live.

But Xiang Yu didn't see it that way, he always felt that desolation and death were only the appearance of the desolate ancient land, and only existed in the outer edge, and in the deeper depths of the desolate ancient land, which human beings had never seen, it must be a thriving place for plants and trees.

Because, the ancient land is a place that human beings have never visited, Xiang Yu always believes that the greatest impact on the world has always been human beings, and where there is no human touch, nature will naturally nurture itself into beauty and harmony.

Xiang Yu looked at the ancient place so quietly, just to create a more three-dimensional artistic conception for the Qingyue flute sound floating in his ears. Let yourself be in reverie about the mysterious sound that wafts out from beyond the wilderness.

Yes, Xiang Yu knew that this flute sound came from the ancient land, in fact, many people also knew it.

Many people who live in Longshun City have heard this beautiful flute sound, but when they found out that this flute sound came from a terrifying ancient place, they were very disgusted with it, they did not feel that this flute sound was melodious and pleasant, but they all felt that this flute sound was strange and harsh, it was a magic sound in the world.

So people began to speculate about where the flute sound came from. At this time, the learned people began to express their opinions, and they said that it was the resentful spirits that had been sealed in the ancient land for thousands of years and were singing.

It is also said that it is the call of a strange bird called the three-headed kite in the ancient lands, which has three heads, each of which can produce a different rhythm and make various strange sounds when singing in unison.

Some people also say that what these people said is not right, the source of this sound is a demon flute in the ancient land, the demon flute is a monster formed by the aggregation and refining of the corpses of countless wild monsters after death, and can speak by itself and confuse sentient beings with sound.

But Xiang Yu didn't believe those nonsense at all. Xiang Yu only believed in his ears, he heard the most beautiful sound in the world. In fact, although Xiang Yu didn't know where this sound came from, he always had an illusion in his secrets, and always felt that this sound came from a woman who played the flute, and the woman was as clear and melodious as the flute, and the city was peerless.

But thinking about it carefully, Xiang Yu himself thought that this idea was too incredible, after all, this flute sound came from the ancient land. In that place where wild monsters and monsters are rampant, not to mention that no one can exist at all, even if there is, there will be no such Yaxing as a flute in that kind of place.

But deep in his consciousness, Xiang Yu still believed in his illusion, and he still felt that there was such a bright and light woman sitting quietly in the savage ancient land, playing the flute quietly for him.

It was as if the sound of this flute had spread an incomparably long distance, it was already very light and low, but Xiang Yu could still hear it clearly......

The flute is melodious and long.

The flowing water on the riverside resonates with the sound of the flute, the new leaves on the branches dance with the sound of the flute, and the breeze in the forest stops in front of the flute, but the melodious sound of the flute crosses the flowing water, the new leaves, and the breeze flutters away for the listener who is waiting in the distance.

The woman sat quietly under an old Tsubaki tree, holding a small piccolo in both hands, and singing the melodious sound of the flute.

The woman seems to be born with the breath of the forest, the dark green skirt is like a touch of new green in the forest, the long ochre hair is like the roots of an ancient tree, a pair of green pupils reflect the life of spring, and the sun falls on her fair skin and reveals the brightness of spring.

Yu Ji is simply a princess born of nature, a part of nature—the most beautiful part.

Beside her, a giant white beast was quietly lurking, guarding her.

It was a flying dragon, as white as snowflakes all over its body, as if it did not stir up dust. It was not big in size, but the aura around it was extremely strong, and with it lying beside Yu Ji, the surrounding desolate beasts did not dare to approach for half a minute. The white dragon gathered its snow-white wings and crouched quietly beside Yu Ji, staring slightly, as if it was also immersed in Yu Ji's melodious flute sound.

It wasn't until the last part of the flute came out that Yu Ji stopped playing, holding the piccolo in her hand, and looked at the world beyond the wilderness with a green gaze, knowing that there was always a listener waiting for her flute.

Every afternoon, Yu Ji would come to the forest under this big tree and play the piccolo for the listener who was far away.

Yu Ji hadn't actually seen that person, she had never been out of the forest in this desolate place, but she just persistently felt that every time she played the piccolo, there was the same person listening quietly from afar.

So she also plays piccolo for him every day.

Yu Ji also guessed what the person who had been listening to her flute was like, maybe it was an innocent child who was curious about the sound of the flute of unknown origin, maybe it was an old man who was dying and enjoying the beautiful sound of the flute in the last days of his life, or maybe it was a woman her age who also knew the rhythm of music and could understand the meaning of her flute.

Who knows, though?

"Let's go. White Nights. Yu Ji stood up from the grass, and her slender white legs were dazzling in the green forest.

Hearing Yu Ji's call, the white dragon moved its round and lovely head, opened its blue eyes and looked at Yu Ji with distinction, and then got up from the ground.

Yu Ji raised her long white legs and straddled the white dragon's back, and then the white dragon slowly stretched its snow-white wings, raised its head and let out a clear whistle, and then flapped its wings and flew up.

The huge white wings flapped, forming a whirling wind current, rolling up the leaves on the surrounding trees, leaving a strange and beautiful leaf dance in place.

But the white dragon carried Yu Ji and flew far deeper into the ancient land.
