Chapter 197: Qinyue Beauty Pageant
I didn't rush to open the coffin, but checked other items, most of them were spirit stones, and there were some elixir gems. It's all hard currency, Mu Bai went back and called Xia Li's people and asked them all to move away and bring them back to Sword City.
It was not until the afternoon that the supplies were emptied, and Dongzi and I went to open nine coffins, which were all three-meter-tall giants, but the nine corpses found by Mu Bai had no scars, as if they had died of natural old age, and now they found terrible wounds on their chests, and they were the same, as if they had been killed by someone with one blow.
Dongzi looked through the corpse and found no burial items, and Mu Bai also shook his head after testing it with the Demon Gate: "They were killed, and they don't have that unique energy in their bodies." ”
Hearing this, I was a little disappointed, so I asked Dusty Wind to escort the soldiers of the Southern Expeditionary Army up, and asked that the nine coffins were from a mercenary group named Tenglong, and I remembered in my heart that although their mercenary station was destroyed, there were probably still people outside, and if I found it, I could ask where the coffins came from.
Dongzi was still looking at the ancient corpse, muttering: "There are nine people on the earth, and there are nine people here, very similar to the team on the mission, are they looking for something?" ”
It's really, it can't be so coincidental, but Mu Bai poked me with his hand, motioned to look behind him, and turned around to find that his daughter-in-law's sister was a little distracted, and she was out of the world, I shouted before she came back to her senses, glared at me and said angrily: "What a roar, it scared me!" ”
I didn't care about her little temper, remembering that she said that there were records of ancient corpses in the empire, and asked, "Did you remember something?" ”
"Yes!" She nodded, and I immediately pricked up my ears, and she said: "At the beginning of the empire, the Xuan Realm was very chaotic, there were many races, and there were many strange people, I remember that there were records about giants in ancient books. ”
"Wife, then you can help me check!" I was speechless.
My daughter-in-law's sister ignored me, pondered for a moment, and said, "According to the records, the giant died on a small island in the East China Sea. ”
Dongzi asked, "Could it be related to the Dragon Clan?" We want revenge! ”
I gave him a blank look, did the ancestors of the Su family not be able to confirm it, so they wanted to take revenge? What's more, the empire didn't dare to provoke the dragon clan, the current Sword City is a fart, if it weren't for the daughter-in-law's sister to deal with it, it would have been destroyed a long time ago.
Although I am not sure if it is an ancestor, I still found a place to dig a big pit and bury the coffin, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will find a good place for them to live.
My daughter-in-law's sister is still distracted, I don't know what to think, I pulled her into the demon gate, and after a few moves, I returned to the mercenary station, Xia Li They have already packed up, and the power of the ability is also great, everyone's weight is like a hill, the largest is a few wrapped in cloth, and it is estimated that more than a dozen people need to carry it.
Xia Li came over to say goodbye and said, "Little Comrade Su Yan, let's see you in Sword City, and talk about the changes in your hometown when the time comes." ”
I asked him what to do with the troops outside? Xia Li pointed to the top of his head mysteriously, I didn't react at first, but my daughter-in-law and sister remembered it and said in surprise: "Satellite? ”
Xia Li nodded slightly, sighed and said, "It's a pity that the funds are not enough, otherwise...... Okay, no more, goodbye! ”
The Southern Expeditionary Army has lost 20,000 people here, and it will definitely send people over to investigate, and it is indeed not appropriate to stay for a long time. They took a detour, believing that nothing would go wrong.
At the time of farewell, in the empty canyon, the young warrior took out the troop horn that had been worn out to the point of discoloration, held his head high, and some blackened red silk fluttered in the breeze, and then sounded a loud trumpet.
They were saying goodbye to their comrades-in-arms who had died in a foreign land, and all the soldiers straightened their waists at the moment when the trumpet sounded, sorted out their old military uniforms, and saluted the military to the mountain peak on the west side.
As everyone knows, I have won them over today, but I have achieved a period of glory, a few years later, there is a group of warriors on the Xuanjie Continent, they are wearing different clothes, but every time the military horn sounds, it will make the enemy fearful.
They are from Sword City, but they do not belong to Sword City, and they call themselves "Chinese people liberation, they are the people's soldiers."
Fifty years have passed, and the people may have forgotten them, but they have never forgotten the people.
After saying goodbye, we continued eastward, and on the way, my daughter-in-law's sister remembered something and said to me: "I remember that your father went to the East China Sea, and only after he came back did he agree to serve the empire, and he was secretly cultivating his own power, but unfortunately he was too closely watched, and there was no improvement. ”
My father went to the East China Sea, could it be because of the ancestors? I slowed down the big dogs, and they knew I had something to ask, so they didn't wait to move on.
Only then did we ask: "Wife, what is the matter with the strong enemy you are talking about?" Did my father let us marry to unite forces? And is my mother in the imperial capital? ”
The daughter-in-law's sister said with a twinkle in her eyes: "Fool, of course my mother is in the empire as a hostage." As for the strong enemy, it's useless if you know it, just develop the Sword City well, and have a place to stand in the future. ”
I still have a puzzle in my heart, the strength of the Xuan Realm is not comparable to the earth at all, why were she and her mother-in-law sent to the earth as hostages? Who is so capable?
It is a bit impossible to say that her stepfather wanted to usurp the throne and deliberately made this arrangement, after all, it was a shame for the empire that the princess and the mother of the country were forced to be hostages.
When I asked about it, my daughter-in-law's sister had some sadness in her eyes, I knew it was because she missed her father, but I really wanted to know. After a long time, tears suddenly rolled down her eyes, and after coming back to her senses, she hurriedly turned her back to wipe them away.
I grabbed her, turned her around, gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and whispered, "I'm sorry!" ”
"It's fine!" The daughter-in-law's sister shyly twisted it and whispered, "It's a shame to let this little ghost see me cry!" ”
She is a big feminist and never shows her weak side in front of me, but she didn't resist just now, otherwise it would be easy to avoid me.
I remember Bai Qinxue said that if a powerful woman is willing to cry in front of you, it means that in her heart, you are irreplaceable, and you will eventually become her dependence.
It's just that I can be her support now? If you want to get to that point, Sword City has to grow faster.
Seeing my daughter-in-law's sister crying, I didn't plan to ask, but after adjusting her emotions, she said: "The Xuan Realm can become so peaceful, because there is a person from the earth who helped repel a strong enemy, and my father took care of his kindness and reached an agreement with him, and before he died, let me and my mother go to your world and exchange hostages with each other." ”
I asked, "What happened to my mother's previous dead hostages?" ”
"She's not dead, it's ......" Speaking of this, she realized something, and suddenly changed the topic and told me: "There are many passages in the Xuan Realm that connect to the outside of the territory, my father and the strong people from your world paid a lot of money to close them, but there are always omissions, after the strong man left, the Xuan Realm was invaded again, and my father was seriously injured in that battle, and it was the Protoss who took action to quell the invasion." ”
In order to divert my attention, she even told all the powerful enemies that I didn't want to talk about just now, but I still stared at it and asked, "She's not dead, what happened?" Did my mother have an accident like her? Five years later, you asked me to come to the Xuan Realm, did you want me to be a new proton? ”
"Su Yan, sometimes it's not good to be too smart, listen to me, when you touch those things, I will naturally tell you!" My daughter-in-law's sister took my hand. But the more I concealed it, the more uneasy I became.
My father cultivated his own power, and it was impossible for him to protect me alone, maybe something happened to my mother. I kept asking, but my daughter-in-law's sister finally got angry and turned her back to ignore me: "If you ask in the east and the west, you will be disobedient." But if Sword City can have 100,000 elites, I will tell you in advance! ”
Even if I see my father now, he won't tell me, otherwise Jian Cheng won't lie to me, and my mother and him are fine.
The only hope is the request made by the daughter-in-law's sister, and I hurriedly hooked her and settled down, and then the big dog teleported to catch up with Dongzi and them, on the way I sorted out what I had to do now, the first is to recruit troops and horses, and strengthen Sword City. The second is to find out if the ancient corpse is my ancestor, if not, there is no need to continue.
And the strength of the sword city can also become the power of the daughter-in-law's sister to "rebel", killing two birds with one stone, thinking of the matter of the imperial capital, I am still a little worried, her spirit body is a ninth-order existence, but she is still tied, it can be seen that there are people in the imperial capital who can suppress her.
That person is most likely the lord. But the goal in front of you is what you have just set, and if you think too far, you will freak yourself out.
It took us ten days to finally arrive at the largest city on the coast: Dongcheng!
It is built along the coastline, stretching for dozens of kilometers, we arrive at the border city on the west side, from here we can see the vast sea, outside the city docks countless huge ships, like moving islands, but looking at the ocean, the huge ships are shaped like dead leaves, so small that they can be ignored.
Dongcheng is an open city, and Mu Bai and Dongzi quickly found out that there is a ferry to Mercenary City, but the price is expensive, and each person needs two thousand spirit stones.
My daughter-in-law's sister gave me a lot of spirit stones, but there were too many people, and only half of them were left in the total payment, and when I was hesitating, Mu Bai called us over, there was a notice there, which said that a large beauty contest would be held in the city, and the winner would get the opportunity to take the ferry for free.
I kicked Mu Bai and was about to go to Jiao Lingshi to buy a ferry voucher, but my daughter-in-law sister grabbed me and said, "I'll try it, anyway, Dongcheng is a free city, and my identity is not afraid of being exposed." ”
"No way!" I vetoed it, there is no free lunch in the world, and I have heard before that beauty pageants are all about finding beautiful women for the rich and providing them to others for fun. I don't want my daughter-in-law and sister to be contaminated with the miasma.
But she was surprisingly excited, like a little wild horse that broke free from the reins, and sent a voice to me: "Little husband, I can't see anyone on Earth or in the Empire, it's rare to have such an opportunity, let me have a good time, okay?" ”
Her words touched me, and I thought about it and nodded, no matter what happens, just keep an eye on it.
