(089) The earthly world is like a tide, and people are like water

Yonghui City, a city that has been undefeated after all the catastrophes, is now afraid that it has become a wonder of the underworld.

Looking at the scene of lights and joy everywhere in this Yonghui City, there is an illusion that it is like a world away.

In order to celebrate the victory of the Yonghui War and congratulate the new emperor of the Ruoye tribe on his accession to the throne, Yonghui City is now filled with a joyful and peaceful atmosphere.

The children who laughed and ran past with a cigarette, the old man who staggered but smiled, the vendors who shouted and sold assorted fruits and all kinds of food, and the young women who dressed up in groups and wanted to go to the vicinity of the Naroya palace to join in the fun, this prosperous scene seems to be hard to believe, what kind of life and death catastrophe this city has experienced a few days ago, and how many hot-blooded Ruoye sons and daughters have even paid for their lives to save this city.

This battle of Yonghui ended with a complete victory for the Ruoye clan, but in fact, the battle was over before Long Yu went underground.

Under the cover of the space-time array of the Ink Wizard, the Kongming Clan packed up the remnants of the army and barely got out of trouble, but it also paid an extremely heavy price, those top Kongming Clan wizards were almost all wiped out, and the more than 300,000 dark knights brought by Yan Zhu were only more than 100,000 when they finally got out of trouble.

Moreover, for the Kongming clan, the bigger bad news is still to come, half a day later, news came from their old nest Mingsha City, the general of the Zhuguo country, one of the twin walls of the Ruoye Empire, personally led an expeditionary army, attacked for three days, and took Mingsha City, and the nest of the Kongming clan fell!

Yan Zhu could only pack up the remnants of the army and leave the city, barely gaining a foothold in the city, but the situation at this time was even worse, because Mingsha City had fallen, and Yonghui City was still in the hands of the Ruoye tribe.

However, the news that came a few days later turned around again, which made Yan Zhu breathe a sigh of relief, it seems that there is no endless road, because the old emperor of the Ruoye Empire has died!

Yan Zhu knows that the Ruoye tribe has an unwritten rule, their kings must personally guard the Nanhai Imperial City for generations, and the prevention is naturally the suppressed demon clan under the imperial city, and after the death of the old emperor, it is natural that the new emperor will ascend the throne.

As soon as he thought that the damned evil star Long Yu of the Ruoye clan would be trapped in the South China Sea from now on, unable to move an inch, Yan Zhu felt joy descend from the sky, allowing him to find the last bit of spark in the ashes.

Although the current situation is worrying, as long as the Ruoye clan does not press forward step by step, given time, their Kongming clan will not have a chance to make a comeback. And once Long Yu, the evil star, returns to the South China Sea, if the Ruoye clan wants to raise troops on a large scale, I am afraid that it will not be so easy, even if someone else leads the troops to come, Yan Zhu is not afraid.

As long as it wasn't Long Yu who personally led the troops, Yan Zhu felt fearless, in this battle of Yonghui, he really lost convincingly, he thought that he was not missing, but after all, he still fell into someone else's game and became a turtle in the urn, but he only admitted that he lost to Long Yu, not to the entire Ruoye clan.

Of course, the people in Yonghui City didn't pay attention to Yan Zhu's feelings, and at this moment, they were happily celebrating the ascension of the new emperor of the Ruoye tribe. Five hundred years after Yonghui City fell into the hands of the Ruoye people, the citizens of Yonghui City finally accepted this reality from the bottom of their hearts, Yonghui City has become the most important part of the territory of the Ruoye Empire, and they accepted from the bottom of their hearts the fact that the Ruoye army is the natural protector of this city, after all, this city is defended by them with blood and flesh and blood.

Ordinary people are so realistic, whoever can bring them peace, who can let them live and work in peace and contentment, who can protect them in troubled times, and give them a place to live, is their king, the real king.

Today's Ruoye Army, in the hearts of ordinary people in Yonghui City, is comparable to a divine general, with a small number of poor troops, not only defended Yonghui City, without hurting a single ordinary person, but also defeated the invading Kongming Clan, and even the ill-intentioned Shamo Wizard was also beaten away, this is like a miracle!

In particular, the new emperor Long Yu of the Ruoye Empire, who had just inherited the unification of the Ruoye Empire, has now become a new legend of Yonghui City through word of mouth.

In the streets and alleys, everyone is chanting this new emperor of the Ruoye tribe who is as handsome as a god, but brave and invincible! The scene when he stood on the east gate of Yonghui City and brazenly faced the thousands of troops and horses of the Kongming clan outside the city was always mentioned by people and compared with Zhuo Ao of that day, and some people even said that today's Long Yu is even more than Zhuo Ao of the year, because their Ruoye clan has a thousand years of immortal life, and this Long Yu is still very young!

At least in the eyes of these ordinary people of Yonghui City, this invincible new emperor of the Ruoye clan can still shelter them for countless generations, as long as he is there, no one, no race, will dare to step on the iron hooves here. In such a chaotic underworld where the law of the jungle eats the jungle and wars, how is it not a thing to be happy about?

It's just that few people know what the new emperor of the Ruoye clan has lost and paid in this battle of Yonghui, the subordinates who are worth relying on, the crown princess who treats him deeply, and countless good sons of the Ruoye clan.

No one knows how many bones and blood and tears are buried under his throne, and no one knows what kind of sorrow is buried in his heart.

In fact, no one is a winner in this war.

Moreover, it is even more impossible for those ordinary people to know that the new emperor is about to leave for the South China Sea Imperial City, and from now on, he may never set foot in the Void Underworld again, devote his life to it, or he will stay there to guard and suppress the demons under the South China Sea Imperial City, and complete his fate as the king of the Ruoye tribe.

They don't know, but Poppy does.

She also knew that in fact, Long Yu had already handed over this Yonghui City and all the Ruoye army in the Void Underworld Continent to his imperial sister, Long Xin, the commander of the Xuanwu Army, that is, Wei Xingying's mother.

Speaking of the eldest princess of the Ruoye clan back then, it is also a legend.

can fight well, women don't let the eyebrows, that is really a heroic woman, and her personality is also extremely bold, and she is like a poppy at first sight. Coupled with the love that Yao Ji had for her and Wei Shucheng back then, Long Xin was as enthusiastic about Poppy as his own sister.

Even in and out of the words, it is the meaning of matching Poppy and Long Yu, at this point, Long Xin and Wei Xingying really deserve to be mother and son, both of them actually have a kind of idea of fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, and want to leave the jade of Poppy Li in their Ruoye clan.

Fortunately, Long Yu himself was not enthusiastic about this, and even made it clear that he wanted to leave his posterior position empty for the rest of his life, so he barely dispelled the enthusiasm of the two mothers and sons, otherwise Poppy really didn't know how to deal with it.

However, for Long Yu to return to the imperial city in the South China Sea, Poppy Lili is still quite sentimental.

She knows that this parting is really a world apart, and it will be difficult to see each other again. Not to mention that Poppy doesn't know where the Nanhai Imperial City is at all, and even if he does, it's not so easy to get to. Moreover, she also has her own fate, and she has already decided that after the battle of Yonghui is over, she will go to Chamo City.

The most important thing is that there is a secret hidden in the bottom of Poppy's heart that has never been told to anyone, a secret that only she and Mo Yi know. She doesn't belong to this Void Underworld, she comes from another world, and her original intention of returning to the Void Realm is just to remove the Vermilion Bird Seal on her body, and if the curse is lifted, she still has to return to that present world that belongs to her.

All the old people and all the beautiful things here, in the end, can only be hidden deep in the bottom of the heart and turned into memories.

How can this not make her sentimental?

However, no matter how sentimental he is, he can only hide it in his heart, and no matter how reluctant he is, he still has to leave, so Poppy Lili chose to leave before Long Yu returned to the South China Sea.

The battle of Yonghui has ended, and the Shamo wizards helped the Kongming clan escape under the leadership of Wusu, naturally there is no reason to stay in Yonghui City, they have long since retreated to the border line between the Ruoye tribe and the Chamo tribe after the end of the Yonghui War, but they have not returned to Chamo City, the intention is obvious, they are waiting for the poppy, or rather, they are waiting for their new chief wizard of the Chamo clan.

And Poppy is indeed planning to go back to Brake City.

After all, Chamo City is the real destination for Poppy to return to the Void Netherworld, although Kamai Yi has been sealed, but Yao Ji's problem is still a mystery, and the 'Vermilion Bird's Curse' has not yet found a way to solve the curse, Kamai Yi somehow refused to tell her, she also asked Suzaku before, thinking that this Vermilion Bird spell may have something to do with her, but I didn't expect Suzaku to just shake his head, it seems that those mysteries are still hidden in Chamo City, this trip to Chamo is a must.

It's just that she didn't plan to join the army of the Chamo clan, after all, she had also heard about the rebellion of the Chamo clan before the formation, for Wusu, Poppy really didn't have much confidence, no matter how affectionate he was to Yaoji in his previous life, this person was still a stranger to Poppy, and Poppy subconsciously felt that Wusu was very dangerous, different from Long Yu and Mo Yi, Poppy could feel that the person Wusu cared about was just Yaoji, from beginning to end, it didn't have much to do with him.

Therefore, she did not plan to meet with Wusu, but planned to sneak back to Chamo City quietly, of course, it would never be alone, Mo Yi did not mention it, but Yan Zheng and Qi Qian also had to go together.

Today, Poppy Lili and the others are about to leave for Brake City.

But I don't like those cumbersome pomp and miserable farewell scenes, so only Long Yu came to see him off today, and, at the request of Poppy, everyone abandoned all the means of transportation, made a slight disguise, and walked slowly from the palace of the Ruoye tribe to the east gate.

Poppy Lili has an extremely deep affection for Yonghui City, this city has witnessed too many of her good memories, so today, she just wants to walk the bluestone road in this city for the last time, and then take a look at the prosperity of this thousand-year-old city, so that these bits and pieces can be vividly treasured in her memory, so that she can remember this city and these people for the rest of her life

Poppy and Long Yu walked side by side at the front, Mo Yi was very empathetic and left a little last space for the two of them to get along, he and Yan Zheng both dragged back slightly, keeping a certain distance from the two.

But from beginning to end, the two men did not say a word, just walked in silence and with their own thoughts, as if they were looking at the scenery along the road, but no one looked at those scenery in their eyes. In fact, it's not that there is nothing to say, but I just feel that the friendship between each other has reached this point, and there is no need for more words, what to say and what should be said have already been said. Moreover, they are afraid that as soon as they open their mouths, they will reveal their stuffing.

After today, one to the north and the other to the south.

Thinking like this, there was a sudden sorrow in his heart, and his shoulders trembled slightly.

Xu noticed the sudden sentimentality of Poppy, and the one beside her who was still the same as when she first met, Long Yu, who was dressed in a crescent-colored robe, hesitated for a long time, and finally stretched out his hand lightly, gently rubbed it on the top of her head, and then ignored Mo Yi's slashing gaze behind him, and hugged her into his arms, and a deep and pure voice sounded leisurely above Poppy's head: "There is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed, don't be sad, if you miss me in the future, you are welcome to come to the South China Sea at any time, and the door of my Ruoye clan will be open for you at any time." ”

"Long Yu, I..." Poppy finally rolled out of his throat, but he choked up and couldn't say it anymore.

This is the best friend who once lived and died together, never abandoned, this is the old man who entrusted his life, this is a confidant who can understand everything without words, but now, it is finally goodbye.

This farewell, maybe we will never meet in this life, never see each other again!
