Chapter 23: Antecedents and Consequences

A hundred years before Qiang Zheng defeated Qi Mu, Qi Mu had not yet unified the five major powers.

At that time, Qimu was only a small country.

Because, at that time, Hanyan was the overlord of all countries.

However, due to Han Yanguo's excessive suppression and enslavement of the Linggong Country, the people of the Linggong Country complained.

It wasn't until more than ten years later that an immortal genius was born in the Linggong Kingdom.

His presence was a headache for the royal families at that time, and everyone wanted to pull him under their command.

But no one succeeded.

Because he never worked for any group.

He relied on the power of one person to free the Linggong Kingdom from the history of being enslaved.

Some people say that he is the savior of the Linggong country, and some people say that he is a madman with no humanity and feelings.

However, he only exists as a legend.

No matter what kind of person he is, whether he is good or bad, he has single-handedly freed the Linggong Kingdom from the history of being enslaved by Hanyan

However, it is precisely because of this that countries have become more wary and jealous of him.

In order to prevent the further strengthening of the Linggong Kingdom, Han Yan and the Wuzhiguo Qiang Zheng began the campaign against the Linggong Kingdom.

At that time, Qiang Zhengguo was almost not a country, but more of a concept of a place name.

There, there are all kinds of powerful masters of the world, and nations and individuals can hire them to do anything as long as they can afford it.

However, at this time, another man named Shao Wang stood up.

He said that countries should not watch Hanyan and Qiang Zheng join forces, otherwise any region and country will become the next spiritual country one day in the near future.

Thus, the melee of the countries began.

One side is led by Han Yan and unites the strong army of Qiang mercenaries.

On the other side are the righteous divisions of the coalition armies of the small states.

At the end of this battle, I never thought that it would be Qi Mu who ruled the world.

In the history that Mu Weiyang has learned and all the books that can be bought in the book market, the truth ends here.

None of the books records the real reason for Qi Mu's domination of the world.

You know, at that time, Hanyan had the most powerful armed forces in the world.

What's more, wars between countries ultimately rely on force.

Although the Linggong Kingdom has a strong Karakuri, because there are not many Karakuri who can use it skillfully, it is okay for these Karakuri to defend the city, but if it is used for attacking, it is almost impossible.

Therefore, if Qi Mu did not use some unconventional means, he would not be able to turn the tide of the war at all.

At that time, when the chaos of various countries entered the white-hot war, Qi Mu used a method that no one could have imagined.

That is: to use the great thieves and the thieves and push them into the battlefield.

Even the most powerful armed groups need information to exchange, and getting this information has become a very important part, and the big thieves are the best at this.

In addition, in the deployment of troops, a variety of orders are needed, and with the orders can command the thousands of troops under him. If the amulet reaches the enemy's hands, it will become extremely terrifying.

At that time, Qi Mu took advantage of the special abilities of these thieves and the thieves to send them to travel around various countries, provide espionage and complete various operations, and finally turned the tide of the entire war.

However, after the victory, in order to prevent the uncontrolled development of the thieves of the Qi Mu Kingdom and maintain the status of the ruling state of the Qi Mu Kingdom, the Gongsun clan of the Qi Mu royal family issued a "ban on theft".

The main content of this "ban on theft" can be summed up in one sentence: "The sin of a thief is the same as that of a murderer." ”

Whether it is a thief, a thief, a thief, a famous thief, a thief, a thief, a thief, a thief, a thief, etc., as long as all those involved in the "thief" or "thief" are punished with the same crime as the "murderer" - the death penalty.

After that, the thieves who were once famous in the melee lost their news one by one.

said that he had lost the news, but in fact, he was wiped out by the Qi Mu royal family, especially the heads of the thieves who originally contributed the most.

In this way, Qi Mu relied on the "ban on theft" to sit firmly in the position of the lord of the five major countries for decades.

However, the "ban on theft" only bans those who have been exposed to fame, or thieves and thieves who have been discovered at a low level.

Most of the members of the "thief family" and the unknown thieves survived the catastrophe.

Among them, the successor head of the most prosperous "Five Great Thief Clans" also began to take revenge on the Qimu royal family after they matured.

However, due to the different characteristics and patterns of each of the "Five Great Thief Families", each family is mutually restrictive, and no one is convinced. For a long time, they only used their own methods and acted alone, so that the revenge against the Qimu royal family had little effect.

At this time, a woman appeared out of thin air, unifying the five great thief clans in a way that no one could have imagined, making them complement each other and enter a new era of thieves together.

This woman has since been known as the "King of Thieves".

"If it is said that the wind candle heart of the Linggong Country, it was the genius who came out of nowhere to save the entire Linggong Country. That thief king is a ghost sent by heaven to save the entire thief family. Grandpa Fei commented.

Grandpa Fei's eyes became filled with a certain indescribable brilliance, and he said, "Although your mother is not the biological child of the King of Thieves, she is also the only survivor who is related to her by blood. What's more, your mother was raised by the king of thieves since she was three or four years old. Until she disappeared, she entrusted your mother to Sun Rinpo, the soon-to-be-succeeded prince of Qimu. However, the personalities of your mother and the king of thieves are so similar, after staying in the city of Qimu for a few years, she gave up her status as a princess and eloped with the boy of the water family, and later, I heard that Gongsun Rinpo was looking for someone to take you back. ”

Mu Weiyang was puzzled: "The five great thief clans, don't they have enmity with the Qi Mu royal family?" ”

"The enmity of the previous generation was resolved when it came to Gongsun Rinpo. He was a good king, perhaps because he was so good, that his descendants did not keep Qi Mu's dominance, and as a ruler, sometimes he had to be ruthless enough. When Grandpa Fei said this, he suddenly laughed, "Do you know that Gongsun Rinpo almost gave up the throne and eloped with the king of thieves before he ascended the throne, but unfortunately she didn't choose anyone." ”

Hearing this, Mu Weiyang's mouth opened wide: "What? ”

"She's such a strange woman." Grandpa Fei seemed to have thought of something particularly funny, and suddenly burst out laughing.

However, what Mu Weiyang thought in her heart was that she didn't expect that her uncle and grandfather, who were so majestic in her childhood heart, would have the idea of giving up the throne and eloping.

It's really amazing.
