Chapter 381: Peacock Country
The Peacock Kingdom is an ancient kingdom with a monarchy.
Just as Su Mu once knew about it, this place was originally one of the five ancient empires, but under the disturbance of the dark veins of the empire, it was finally split into what it is now.
"And the biggest difference between the Mauryan Kingdom and the rest of the kingdoms is...... The royal power here is not the supreme thing, but there is an organization called the Sacrificial Society, which is completely above the royal power of the Peacock Kingdom. ”
Now the three of Su Mu had already crossed the border of the Peacock Country a few days ago, and they were walking in a medium-sized city in the territory of the Peacock Country at the moment.
After all, the Peacock Kingdom is not a subsidiary of Longtuo, and they used to be one of the five empires, but in fact, they don't think that the Longtuo Empire is more noble in their hearts.
Therefore, even if the Imperial Dragoon was in person, it was impossible to send the Peacock Kingdom to hunt down Qin Invincible.
However, even so, Su Mu and the others were still cautious enough, they did not choose to meet immediately near the border, but instead set this city in the depths of the Peacock Country as the meeting point.
Now Su Mu has already put away the dress of the dark bard, and even the huge scythe blade that he once held was directly returned to Teyi Ao through some secret channels.
At this moment, Su Mu and the three of them were each dressed in plain cotton robes of the Peacock Country, and then wrapped a thick cold-proof hat on their heads, completely pretending to be the native of the Peacock Country.
And with Su Tong's previous words, Su Mu was still slightly interested in the so-called sacrificial meeting after all.
His eyes were also slightly expectant, waiting for Su Tong to continue the topic.
But I don't know if it's because Su Mu's heart was completely open, or because of Su Mu's safe return, Su Tong is obviously in a very good mood so far, and even a little naughty because of this.
Facing Su Mu's expectant eyes, Su Tong did not immediately continue the topic just now.
On the contrary, it was eccentric, and suddenly asked Su Mu rhetorically:
"So do you know that the so-called Five Ancient Empires...... What did they all rise to, and what did they do?"
......
Regarding the fall of the other four empires, Su Mu undoubtedly already knew something.
But as for the empires other than Long Tuo, what kind of factors did they rise through, this is indeed a question that even Su Mu has never understood.
Seeing that Su Mu was puzzled, Su Tong finally said with a little seriousness:
"Among the five empires in ancient times, Longtuo naturally rose because of the founding emperor, and his military concepts and governing policies were all things that surpassed that era, so it allowed the Longtuo empire to continue to this day. ”
Of the other four empires, the Frans Empire and the Rakshasa Empire, which had been marrying frequently since their establishment, had developed solely by supporting each other. As for the former Ingillia Empire, which is the predecessor of the current Papal States, they have always relied on faith to maintain their rule. ”
Su Tong's words were concise, and he immediately finished talking about all the reasons for the establishment except for the Peacock Empire. But it deliberately did not point out the real reason for the establishment of the Peacock Empire.
Therefore, the method of establishing the Peacock Kingdom will naturally be a completely different method from the previous four.
Sure enough, after Su Tong paused slightly, he immediately continued:
"The existence of the Peacock Empire is fundamentally different from the other four empires. Or to exaggerate a little, other empires are built under systems and policies, but the Peacock Empire, which is also one of the five ancient empires, is completely based on the existence of a certain individual. ”
"I don't know if you've heard of it, above the strongest big-character realm in the world today, there is actually an even more terrifying realm, the pinnacle of this world...... Word Study!"
"And the foundation of the establishment of the Peacock Empire is precisely because of the royal family of this empire, they once enshrined a researcher-level sacrifice. It was completely under the protection of this person that the Peacock Empire was able to evolve step by step from an extremely weak tribe to an extremely large empire. ”
When Su Tong said this, he already looked at the current Peacock Country city with some emotion.
And then even more strikingly, he added:
"And in the entire history of the continent, the only research-level powerhouse who has been confirmed and made public is actually the only one who sacrificed to him in the Peacock Country. ”
"So even now, the national strength of the Peacock Kingdom is even weaker than among the three kingdoms of Tianzhu, but the other two countries still dare not annex it at will. ”
"After all, the only organization that holds the legacy of a research-level powerhouse is also the sacrificial society that has enjoyed a transcendent status to this day. Therefore, as long as it is the sacrificial meeting itself, they still have not given up on the current Peacock Royal Family, and the Peacock Royal Family will always live in ...... Under the shadow and shelter of the sacrificial meeting!"
......
While Su Mu and the three of them were talking, the three of them had already come to the square in the center of the city.
Compared with those gorgeous and bright squares in the Federation, the Peacock Kingdom is obviously not able to achieve such an orderly order because of the weakness of the national power.
Therefore, countless small merchants and vendors are now crowded in relatively open squares.
And the bustling flow of people made the square almost blocked.
However, such a chaotic scene is undoubtedly what Su Mu is really looking forward to. Su Mu and the others didn't believe that Yang Zimu and the cavalry general Sun Lan would give up so easily.
Therefore, the more chaotic and noisy it is, the more difficult it is for Su Mu and his party who want to meet secretly.
Sure enough, while Su Mu and the three of them pretended to be residents to pick up groceries everywhere, a tall man dressed as a porter accidentally bumped into Su Mu.
Su Mu didn't say anything when he saw this, just scolded and shouted a few words.
It was only after this person crossed the square and disappeared into an alley that Su Mu and the two girls beside him also silently disappeared into the same alley after making sure that no one was following.
The alley is a dead end, and you can't go anywhere at all.
But after Su Mu and the three entered the alley, they did not feel the slightest confusion and confusion. Because somewhere at the bottom of the alley, it's obviously cleverly marked.
Therefore, whether it was Su Mu, who gently picked up Su Tong, or Qin Wupian, who was already an official knight, they had already easily crossed that wall.
Behind the wall, Qin Wushu himself, who was pretending to be a porter, was already there waiting for the arrival of Su Mu and the others.
Seeing that the three of them landed one after another, Qin Wu immediately did not look back, and continued to continue along the tortuous roadway. led Su Mu and the others to walk towards a deeper place again.
I don't know how many bends I have bypassed, Qin Wushu finally pushed open a dilapidated wooden door, and behind that wooden door, it was naturally a temporary stronghold that Qin Wushu had purchased in this city.
And Lu Xi, the mentor who had been separated from Su Mu for a long time, is now waiting for everyone to arrive in the courtyard.
So far, Su Mu and his party have successfully converged with each other in the Peacock Country, and the only thing that needs to be considered next is ...... The only way to return to the territory of the Federation as soon as possible!
