Chapter 285: Skywalker City
It has been a month since everyone walked out of the territory of Suiguo.
At the border with Suiguo is Zheng Guo, the weaker of the nine eastern kingdoms, and this country borders with at least four large countries, each of which is eyeing him, so Zheng Guo has to rely on the snort of others, and everyone above and below lives in fear.
"Zheng Guo is sparsely populated, and his strength is not strong, although Zheng Guo's Guiling Sect is also known as one of the nine major factions, its strength is inferior to Longmen Mountain. Every hundred years, the Nine Nations Alliance is presented by the sect behind the nine major powers, which is essentially a competition of the strength of the nine factions, and the strength of the sect is strong, it can support the whole country, and there will be no other countries watching, and the strength is not good, the situation is dangerous, and you can only choose stronger allies, sacrificing many interests of your own faction, in exchange for the safety of the country. Elder Li Ya introduced as he walked.
"The last time the alliance was met, Zheng Guo was the last among the nine countries, so he was attached to the neighboring Chen State for a hundred years, Chen Guoxuan's original faction has been inherited for thousands of years, and Longmen Mountain is on par, but there is a natural danger between Zheng Guo and Sui Guo, and the Sui State army wants to attack Zheng Guo, it takes a lot of effort, and between Chen Guo and Chen Guo is a flat river, as long as Chen Guo is interested, it will be able to enter Zheng Guo's capital in more than ten days, so Zheng Guo and Chen Guo are allied, it is a matter of course ......"
"Now we have stepped into the territory of Zheng Guo, this mountain is the dividing line between the two countries, if it weren't for the strength of our party, I'm afraid it would take several days to cross the mountain range......" Li Ya walked a few steps quickly, came to Yang Cong's side, and said, "Senior nephew, find a city in front of you to rest for a day and then go, you have been on the road for a month, everyone is very tired." ”
Yang Cong nodded and discussed the arrangement with Yang Yi.
Before leaving, Yang Shuo had instructed that the team of the Nine Nations Alliance this time was mainly composed of Yang Cong and Yang Yi, accompanied by Elder Li Ya and Elder Qiuhe.
"Uncle Shi, there is another five-day trip ahead, which is Yangcheng, the second largest city in Zheng State, let's get there and rest. Not long after, Yang Cong sent a junior disciple to inform.
"Good. Li Ya nodded.
A group of fast horses, the most elite mounts of Longmen Mountain, walked like flying on the avenue, and it was a hundred miles in an instant.
Among these mounts, there are only a few horses, most of which are beasts of different shapes, which were personally caught by the disciples of Longmen Mountain when they were training, and they were similar to the coming-of-age ceremony of the Snow Clan.
Among them, Yang Cong and Yang Yi's mounts are the most eye-catching, which are two huge tigers with a body length of four or five meters, one white and one yellow, like a pair. The two tigers were so awe-inspiring that they often glanced at the other mounts, and the mounts would be frightened into taking a few steps back, and the horses would never dare to come closer, but could only follow them from a distance.
However, there are exceptions to everything, and the Wind Beast is not afraid of the pair of kings of the mountains, and whenever the tiger threatens the other mounts, the Wind Beast will erect its mane and hiss in a low voice, as if in defiance. Of course, maybe the two tigers are really psychic, and they know that the wind beast is not easy to mess with, so they never pay attention to it, and only care about their own prestige.
After two or three times, the wind beast found it boring, so it died down.
Five days later, the team entered Zheng Guo's Yangcheng.
"Zheng Guoguiling Sect is near Yangcheng, calculate the time, they should also set off, Chunguo is far to the east, adjacent to the sea, if you go late, you will miss the day of the Nine Nations Alliance. Li Ya has become the guide of the song list, and since this time, as long as there is any customs, he will explain the song list, which has opened the eyes of the song list.
Xiao Luoyan, who has been following along, has also gained knowledge, and when she left Qingyuan City for the first time, she saw everything novel, and let out various exclamations from time to time, which made Qu Shan immune to her voice.
"Look, there's a disciple of the Guiling Sect in front!" Suddenly, someone in the team shouted.
Qu Shan looked up, sure enough, several well-dressed young people were coming out of a restaurant on the street, several people were talking loudly, laughing unscrupulously, and the second child of a restaurant followed closely behind a few people, and shouted repeatedly: "A few masters, you haven't paid for the meal yet......!
"Get out, uncles still have to give money for a meal? In Zheng Guo, our Guiling Sect is the boss, and the uncle eats here to look up to you, don't be embarrassed!" A disciple scolded and kicked the little two away, and left with a snort.
The shopkeeper got up with a bitter face, and he didn't dare to chase it, Gui Lingzong was the emperor in Zheng Guo, and he was a restaurant guy, and he couldn't afford to mess with him.
Qu Danxing shook his head when he saw it, the Guiling Sect had already declined, and the disciples under his disciples were still so proud, how to grow stronger, and it was a blessing that he was not overturned! On the other hand, in Longmen Mountain, except for Yang Cong, the two of them have been cultivated as inheritors since they were children, and they are superior to others, and they have developed a proud temper of command, and among the others, Qu Shan has not yet found that kind of particularly arrogant disciple.
The group had dinner in the restaurant, rested in Yangcheng for a whole day, and then continued on the road.
"There's a group of people following us, do you want to see who it is?"
At this time, Elder Qiuhe charmingly stroked his curly wavy hair, and said with a smile: "It's better for Uncle Shi and I'll go and see it myself." ”
Seeing this half-old MILF twisting her ass and turning away, many disciples secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, this kind of mature woman's style, few young people can resist.
After a while, Qiu He came back: "It's the team of the Guiling Sect, there are a lot of people, and they should also participate in the Nine Nations Alliance." ”
Several people got together to discuss for a while, and Elder Li Ya said: "The relationship between Zheng Guo and my Suiguo has always been flat, the Guiling Sect has been attached to the Xuanyuan Sect a hundred years ago, and I Longmen Mountain is not diligent, but there is no need to care about them, anyway, with the strength of the Guiling Sect, I don't dare to provoke our ......."
Everyone nodded together, thinking, "Go your own way, let the Guiling Sect follow behind." "But no one took the initiative to cause trouble.
Suddenly, for more than ten days, the team left Zheng Guo and entered the territory of Lu State.
In fact, Zheng Guo and Chen Guo have more borders, but there is a longer detour to Chun Guo in that direction, so everyone first enters Lu State, crosses a section of Lu State's border, and then enters Chen State from another direction, and finally arrives at the land of Chun State.
The team of the Returning Spirit Sect left again. "When they arrived here, everyone found that the people of the Guiling Sect had changed their direction and went straight to Chen Guo.
"It should be a convergence with the people of the Xuanyuan faction, the alliance of the nine nations, without the support of the Xuanyuan faction, the Guiling Sect basically has no place to speak, they must find a backer before they dare to go to Tianxing City. ”
"Go ahead, our team is full of Grandmasters above the Awakened Realm, and the young master of the Tianxing Sect is here, no one dares not to open their eyes, and at the same time provoke the two of the nine major sects, and they are also the two most powerful!"
Continue on and head east.
Along the way, Qu Shan has seen enough of various scenery, and inadvertently, he found two surprising places - Nuwa Temple.
It seems that not only in Suiguo, but also in the whole East, there are traces of Nuwa, whether it is in the deep mountains and forests, or in densely populated places, there are traces of Nuwa Temple, Nuwa is like a god in the lower realm, wandering among the crowd, spreading sermons everywhere, making countless people believe in her.
Qu Shan asked Li Ya about Nuwa, and Elder Li Ya replied that Nuwa was a god who was promoted 10,000 years ago, and I heard that she was also a member of the Holy Clan before becoming a god, but she was born with a snake tail and was mistaken for a monster, and her parents abandoned her in the mountains. However, she does not hate humans, on the contrary, she also shows kindness, which makes countless people grateful, and this time, she has become the object of everyone's admiration, but she has destroyed her original monster image.
"In addition to the Holy Clan's holy beast Qinglong, Nuwa Niangniang is the god that people love the most, but these are all legends, no one has ever seen them, who knows if there really is a god in the world? Perhaps, even the realm of the gods is also a legend, in Longmen Mountain for 10,000 years, there are hundreds of predecessors who have entered the retreat tower, but they have never heard of anyone reaching this ......realm," Elder Li Ya said with a sigh.
The song list is silent, maybe it really is. Just like what he used to think of as the path of cultivation, the root, the Dao, and the fruit, the three realms of legends, but what he has really seen is the highest that is, the master of the Dao realm, as for the last level, the immortal trail is ethereal.
Of course, this kind of view no longer exists, knowing the ancient gods, and even seeing the incarnation of Nuwa twice, he believes that there must be characters in this world at a higher level than the Dao realm and the realm of awakening, and the realm of cultivation and the realm of the gods are not illusory, but they do exist! It's just that now his strength has not yet arrived, and he can't get in touch with the characters of that level.
Sunrise and sunset, out of Lu country, into Chen country, and then into Chun country, the land of the first powerful country in the East was finally trampled under everyone's feet.
As soon as he entered the country, there were disciples of the Tianxing Sect who greeted him, and when he saw the young master, he naturally bowed, and then led everyone straight to the Tianxing City, the location of the Tianxing Sect.
Unlike other large countries in the East, Chunguo faces the sea for more than half of its borders, and is a real seaside country, so the development of Chunguo is more advantageous than other countries.
For thousands of years, Chunguo has been the most powerful country in the East, and there have been many changes in the other eight countries, but Chunguo has been steadily advancing under the leadership of Tianxingzong, and has always been entrenched in the position of the largest country in the East, as firmly as Mount Tai. And the Tianxing Sect has the strong national strength support of the Chun Kingdom, and all kinds of cultivation resources have gathered, which has also promoted the long-term prosperity of the Tianxing Sect, it can be said that among the nine major factions of the Holy Clan, the Tianxing Sect is the well-deserved boss!
This year's Nine Nations Alliance is the turn of the Tianxing Sect, as soon as they enter the Chunguo region, everyone feels the bearing of the first major faction of the Holy Clan, not only have disciples waiting at the major intersections of the Chunguo border to guide the disciples who come to participate in the alliance, but on the way to the Tianxing Sect, all kinds of accommodation arrangements are even more comprehensive, and everyone does not need to bother a little at all.
When he arrived in Tianxing City, Qu Dan saw a city based on sects, which was a hundred times larger than the Worship Fire City under the volcano, and it was not much better than the Qingyuan City of Suiguo!
The countless disciples of the Tianxing Sect in the city are doing their own things in an orderly manner, there are many shops, and the three sects and nine streams are all gathered here, which is clearly a small society with a clear division of labor and independent existence.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the General Assembly of the Nine Nations Alliance will be held next month, and you have come from afar to rest here. "The disciple who led the way took everyone to a large courtyard in the city, and only left after they had settled down.
Months of travel, hundreds of thousands of miles of travel, even if everyone is a master, but also feel a little tired, the first two days of staying, all shrunk in the room to rest, until the third day before going out, ready to walk around, to visit the terroir of Chunguo.
"Brother Qu, I have practiced these two spells, can you teach me new spells?" Xiao Luoyan pushed open the door of Qu Dan's room and asked excitedly.
The longer they got along, the more unkind the woman became, and now she could break into Qu List's room without the consent of the song list.
Speaking of which, Xiao Luoyan's cultivation qualifications are indeed good, and in just a few months, she has practiced the spells that Qu Shan taught her, not to the extent that she can just get started, but to the point that she is so proficient that she can easily come to her mind as soon as her mind moves.
Thinking about Qu Dan's cultivation of these spells at the beginning, which one of them didn't have to practice for several years to achieve later achievements, and compared with each other, he was depressed to find that his qualifications in his previous life were really mediocre. But fortunately, because of the corrections made in advance in this life, it is much better than Xiao Luoyan.
In order to get rid of this haunting spirit, Qu Shan had to teach another water spell, let her go back to the house and practice it slowly by herself, and then, Youzai went out and walked around the street.
Next month is the Nine Nations Alliance, at this time, there are already several sects in the Tianxing City, there are also many cultivators from other sects who are watching the excitement, as well as countless scattered people without doors and no sects, making the Tianxing City crowded with the same as the original Demon Tyrannosaurus City, ordinary people come here, and it is extremely difficult to even find a place to live - the Tianxing City is the territory of the Tianxing Sect, the first faction of the Holy Clan, no one dares to force trouble, many people can't find a place to live, so they have to run outside the city to build a temporary residence.
For a time, there were many tents outside the city, which was spectacular.
It took most of the day for Qu Shan to take a rough tour of Skywalker, which is still his extremely fast speed, if he walks slowly, he can't finish it in a few days and nights.
I was about to return when I suddenly found that there were many people in front of me, pointing inside, as if something had happened.
Qu Shan walked a few steps quickly, and looked inside, a sloppy old man holding a wine gourd was lying on the ground chirping, in pain, and another middle-aged man was talking loudly to a person angrily, as if arguing about something.
"Alas, this shop is really dark, it actually sells fake wine, and now people have come to the door, and they are so domineering, it seems that retribution is coming! Selling fake wine is a harmful act!"
"Yes, yes, the first time I came to Skywalker, I didn't expect to encounter such a thing. ”
"Hmph, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, this shop is a century-old brand, I have lived nearby since I was a child, and I have never heard of fake wine being sold here, and most of the old man is pretending to be ......"
"Hey, you're nearby? Isn't this shop related to you? and help him talk, don't take us for fools......"
The onlookers said a word, and the song list quickly understood the situation.
However, after looking at it for a while, he understood that the old man and the middle-aged man should be liars, because although the old man rolled badly and seemed to be in pain, his heartbeat did not change at all, and there were no sweat stains on his body, which did not look like alcohol poisoning.
"What are you glaring at, I ask you, did we just buy wine from you?" the middle-aged man shouted to the innkeeper.
"Yes. The tavernkeeper replied.
"Did my dad drink the wine in your tavern and suddenly have a stomachache and now can't even stand up?"
"Yes," said the tavernkeeper with a bitter face, "but ......"
"No, but! Since we don't have a problem, that is, there is a problem with your wine, and I won't trouble you, quickly pay me ten taels of silver, so that I can take my father to see a doctor, otherwise, if my father dies here, I want you to pay for your life!" The middle-aged man spoke aggressively.
The tavern owner is just an ordinary person, and he has defended several times in a row, but he has been pushed back, and when he saw the fierce face of the middle-aged man, his eyes were like copper bells, and he had no choice but to take out ten taels of silver and hand it to the other party with a bitter face.
The middle-aged man checked it, nodded with satisfaction, and kicked the old man: "Get it, pull it!"
After saying that, he ran away with a smoke. The old man on the ground also grabbed the wine gourd, turned over with great dexterity, and even crossed the tall crowd, a few vertical leaps, and disappeared at the end of the street, that speed, how to look like a person with alcohol poisoning, saying that he is a master but some people believe it!
"Alas, there are so many liars these days, I just said that you still don't believe it, look!" The spectator who had loudly reprimanded the tavern before turned his gun and began to bombard the two liars.
"Cut, hindsight! Did you just say that?"
"Why didn't I say it, you didn't hear it......"
"Yes, you ask around, this big brother, did you hear him?"
............
The song list was no longer in place, and he followed the two liars.
Tianxing City is really a good place, there are three religions and nine streams, so old and still come out to cheat, cheat wine and cheat money, such a character, it's really rare!
The two crooks ran so fast that Qu Shan chased a few streets and almost lost them, until the other party entered a compound guarded by two people, and he stopped.
"That's ......" Qu Shan recognized the outfits of the two gatekeepers, and he had seen them once when he went to the city a few days ago, and they were the disciples of the Great Sect of Chu Burning Valley. The two liars swaggered into the door, while the disciples guarding the door saluted respectfully, it seems that the two of them should be people with the highest status in the Burning Valley!
This world is really crazy, the master of the dignified faction actually ran out to cheat the ordinary tavern owner for ten taels of silver, if the disciple of the gate knew about it, would he still salute so respectfully?
The Nine Nations Alliance has not yet begun, and the song list is already a little expected, there are so many masters here, when those two escaped just now, he almost couldn't catch up, then the awakened grandmasters of various other skills will definitely appear one by one on the alliance, and when the time comes, he will be able to see those countless masters. Perhaps, even cultivators can see it!
