Chapter 149: The Oracle of Jiayi
Shi Jinyan didn't bother to bother with her, and turned her face to the side to ignore her. Sima Hongyan patted Xiao Hongying on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Your sister Shi is not referring to someone, she is sad about her attitude towards this matter!" ”
"Huh? What do you mean? Xiao Hongying didn't understand at all, and asked in confusion.
Sima Hongyan smiled and said: "This truth is too deep, I can't explain it for a while, I'll tell you slowly when I go back today." ”
As soon as she heard that she was going to teach herself a lesson, Xiao Hongying immediately shook her head again and again, and said hurriedly: "No, no, no, I understand, Sister Hongyan, you don't have to go back and talk to me again." Sister Shi, I'm sorry, I didn't hear it clearly just now, don't be angry. Keep talking, I'm going to watch the game! As he spoke, he turned around and went back to shouting and shouting with the others.
Looking at the simple and funny Xiao Hongying, Shi Jinyan's originally tense face couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Sima Hongyan whispered to Shi Jinyan: "Jinyan Sometimes you don't take it too seriously, life is like a gambling game, we are actually in gambling." Life is still like this, let alone a game? The Five Nations Tournament is a bet, the women's army is a bet, and you and I are also betting. ”
Suddenly, Sima Hongyan said such profound words, which surprised Shi Jinyan, she stared at Sima Hongyan's face with a deep thought in her eyes. Sima Hongyan just smiled lightly and patted her shoulder.
When Li Siyu heard the presiding officer announce that the gamble had been recognized, he arched his hand in the direction of the presiding officer, and then waved his right hand and shouted arrogantly: "Burn incense!" "With this momentum, it's really a bit of a preemption.
After a noisy shout, the school martial arts field fell silent again. Everyone stared at Li Siyu who was in high spirits in the field.
Lan Shuang gambled this time, betting on everything, and she had already made plans in her heart, even if she was eliminated, she would pull Li Siyu down together. She would rather let Xiyue or Beiling win this game than let Yanling win.
Her plans were much deeper than the others' thoughts. Among these five countries, in terms of the ten competitions, in terms of comprehensive strength, Yanling is actually the strongest. Because from the time, location, people and all aspects, Yanling has an absolute advantage. Compared with several other countries, I am afraid that only Dongning can compete with Yanling.
From Lan Shuang's point of view, Beiling and Yanling have resource transactions all year round, although it is not an alliance, but Yanling's resource support over the years is difficult to say that it will not allow Beiling to secretly be partial.
Xiyue and Yanling had a great grudge back then, but Xiyue was barbaric, most of the human nature was irritable and reckless, and the humanities were not as profound as Yanling, so it was difficult to pose a fatal threat to Yanling.
And the most inscrutable Nanyi, who has been closed to the country for so many years, and has not had a deep relationship with anyone, it is difficult to say that their ability can beat the long-standing Yanling.
Only Dongning has developed the fastest in recent years, and has the strength to compete with Yanling in terms of military, economy, and culture. Militarily alone, the other four countries are already not as strong as the current Dongning.
But after all, the competition is not a war, it is a real talent. And Lan Shuang didn't take the western, southern, and northern kingdoms to heart at all, she thought that the only thing that needed to be suppressed was Yanling. As long as they can defeat Yanling, the other three countries will be easy to deal with.
If Dongning wins the Five Nations Competition, Yanling will obediently send ten cities, which will greatly promote the development of Dongning. If Yanling repented of not handing over the city, Dongning just used this as an excuse to send troops to Yanling. It wasn't as simple as ten cities. Therefore, in any case, for this five-nation competition, Dongning is bound to win.
Over the years, many people in Dongning have coveted the fertile land, rich minerals and resources of Yanling for a long time. But I don't know why Emperor Dongning has always done nothing to Yan Lingqiu. No matter how the ministers played, how they appealed, Emperor Dongning just didn't allow it. Even when King Hong mentioned this, Emperor Dongning did not agree.
There must be some secret in this, but none of these can stop the blue double's goal. Lan Shuang is an ambitious person, although he is a woman, he has great ambitions, and in this regard, he is quite similar to Sima Hongyan.
And if Yan Ling wins in the end, the four countries will sign an alliance and will not have any encroachment on Yan Ling for ten years.
As a matter of fact, over the years, the five countries have been in a relationship of mutual restraint, and they have often tried back and forth with each other, and there have been many frictions. It was like four hungry wolves surrounding a fat sheep, and the four wolves wanted to swallow the fat sheep alone, but any one wolf alone could not handle the sheep, and the other three wolves were not willing to divide it equally, so the four wolves also became a mutually restrictive relationship.
You won't let me eat it, and I won't let you eat it. If any wolf dares to speak first, he must first weigh whether he can deal with the other three wolves.
It was such a wonderful relationship that had tied the five countries for many years.
But once Yanling is given a peaceful and relaxed decade, let it focus on development, and it will be difficult to say who will be strong and who will be weak. Especially the Yanling people are too good at fighting, don't come back and the wolf can't eat the sheep, but let the sheep become a tiger, and the wolf will become food.
Besides, there are many ambitious people in various countries, and there are many people in any country who vainly try to encroach on Yanling, and they will always find various opportunities to create some trouble for Yanling and provoke a fight. Yanling's development has been slow for so many years, because the main focus is on border relations with various countries. Skirmishes are perennial, and there are always casualties. As soon as there is a war, there will be peace talks, and after the talks, there will be no end to the fighting.
Don't blame these people for being greedy, it's true that all the resources in the world are gathered in the Yanling Kingdom, and people can't help but covet it. Perennial provocation and fighting, is to control Yanling to limit its growth, I can't eat you, and I can't let you become strong and bite me in turn.
At the beginning, Sima Hongyan was also speechless about the geographical location of Yanling. If it weren't for the protection of the famous generals of the Yanling Dynasty, Yanling would have ceased to exist many years ago.
Therefore, the four countries are eyeing Yanling openly or covertly, but no one dares to despise Yanling. After all, there are abundant resources as a solid foundation, and no one is afraid to go it alone. The almost annihilation of the country in Xiyue is the best example!
Back to the arena. After Li Siyu and other assistants announced that the incense had been lit, they put their hands behind their backs, shook their heads and began to recite the "Quotations of Heaven and Man". When he opened his mouth, the audience was stunned, and everyone was stunned.
Xiao Hongying listened for a moment, then suddenly turned her head and asked Sima Hongyan very differently: "Sister Hongyan, this Li Siyu, what did he and he say?" Why can't I understand a word? ”
Sima Hongyan was also shocked at this time, and replied, "You ask me?" Who do I ask? Is he endorsing it? Why do I sound like I'm speaking a foreign language? ”
Ban Lingruo said: "Foreign words? What's that saying? ”
Only Shi Jinyan was surprised, but she seemed to know something, so she whispered: "He seems to be speaking in Jiayi!" Could it be that "Quotations from Heaven and Man" was written in the Jiayi language? How can Li Siyu speak Jiayi? ”
Sima Hongyan and the others looked at Shi Jinyan at the same time, and asked in unison, "What is Jiayi language?" ”
Shi Jinyan hesitated for a moment and said, "This is even more of a legend!" I only know a few words. According to legend, more than 1,000 years ago, the people who ruled the Central Plains Continent were called the Jialu people, and their language was Jiayi. The people of Jialu were strong and brave, and they defeated all enemies outside the Central Plains Continent and lived in this land for a long time. ”
At this time, Zhong Liying asked very curiously, "People from outside the Central Plains Continent?" Is there any other country in the world besides our five countries? ”
Sima Hongyan stopped: "Little Si, don't interrupt, let Jin Yan finish speaking!" ”
The sentence "Little Four" stunned the girls, and after waiting for a while, they reacted and said that it was Zhong Liying, and several people couldn't help but laugh.
Shi Jinyan laughed twice, and suddenly felt a little out of place, so she smiled and continued: "Later, I don't know what they went through, the Jialou people were almost wiped out overnight, and only a very few people survived. Some people also say that we are actually the descendants of the Garu people, and some people say that we only came to this land after the Garu people were wiped out. ”
After hearing what she said, Sima Hongyan felt that she had more questions, so she asked, "This is not right!" Now that the people of Garu are extinct, how did you know of their existence? How did you know the Kayi language? Also, why do you say that Li Siyu is speaking the Jiayi language now? ”
