Chapter 36: The Lord of the Land of Mountains and Seas
The creatures of this continent have grown up in countless years of disasters, and the strength of all their cultivators is countless times stronger than in the primeval era, not to mention the explosive growth in the number of races. Knowing this, Fu Ling was secretly preparing forces to await their revolt, and he personally built the city of mountains and seas for the Terrans, surround this magnificent kingdom with endless mountains and seas that they could not cross.
After a battle of life and death, the survivors rushed in the direction of Shanhai City, desperately wanting to return to that safe place. On the way down, they met an army led by General Mountain.
Seeing his father, Shan Tai almost shed tears. General Shan said a few words of relief and searched the crowd for the whereabouts of the three princes. Bo Wuhai knew that he was ordered to bring Bo Wushuang back: "The general is tired of coming in person, and the third brother is willing to stay after the break, so it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time." ”
He also followed General Shan's gaze and looked at the rear: "Please also ask the general to escort me back to the city, and I will talk to my father in detail." ”
In the evening, everyone dragged their tired bodies back to the North Heavenly Gate of Shanhai City. General Shan sent heavy troops to patrol the north, and he himself took several royal families back to the imperial city in a carriage to return to the lord of the mountains and seas.
In the study of the Lord of Mountains and Seas, there were already a few people kneeling neatly, Bo Shuxian and Bo Wuxue, who had cut off their arms, and several ministers behind them who planned the rock bucket.
The Lord of Mountains and Seas raised his head slightly, his eyes still staring at the scroll in his hand: "Where is the frost?"
Bo Wuhai was about to reply when he finished saluting, but everyone heard a commotion outside, and a person broke in in the flickering firelight. He entered the study, and the landlord looked around, and his eyes met the only person sitting in the study, and he was sure that this person was the lord of the mountains and seas: "Minister, the minister greets the lord of the country of mountains and seas." ”
When they came out of the cave, the army in front had already led the monks back to the city, and among the four, only Ning Ran and Tian Wuchang still had the strength left. Considering the impermanence of the sky, Bo Wushuang could only choose to let Ning Ran enter the palace to report his safety, and gave him some etiquette.
However, Ning Ran flew out without hearing a word, and he blended into the group in front of him, following them all the way as they boarded the carriage until he broke into the study.
The Lord of Mountains and Seas pressed the scroll in his hand on the table: "You, the friend of Frostless?"
"Returning to the king, in the next Ning Ran. When we meet for the first time, please take care of it. Ning Ran raised his body and stood in the middle of the kneeling crowd.
"From the forbidden land?" he said, picking up the bowl of tea in his hand and taking a sip.
Ning Ran hated the statement of the forbidden land very much, and he immediately slammed back: "It's a floating island, not a forbidden place." ”
"Dragged out, chopped. The Lord of the Mountains and Seas didn't want to talk to him, so he motioned to General Shan. Ning Ran's anger surged up from his heart, and he jumped over Bo Shuxian's head, propping his hands on the desk of the Lord of Mountains and Seas.
"First of all, I'm just here to report safety, and Bo Wushuang asked me to give me a message. Secondly, you guys secretly let Fu Ling attack our floating island, this account hasn't been settled yet, if it weren't for the sake of Wushuang's face, I would have started fighting you a long time ago. ”
Everyone who was stunned by the words was stunned, and buried their heads lower, the blue tendons on the forehead of the Lord of Mountains and Seas burst out, and the atmosphere of the entire study was instantly depressed to the extreme. Bo Wuhai opened his mouth, but he still retracted the idea of speaking for Ning Ran.
Ning Ran saw that no one spoke, so he pinched the snack on the table and stuffed it into his mouth: "If you judge people to life and death indiscriminately, no matter how you think about it, you are a tyrant." If Wushuang did something king, he would definitely be 10,000 times better than you. ”
"On our floating island, as long as you have a reason, even the patriarch can be scared. Our patriarch stands at the highest point on the whole island, but he is diligent and loves the people, and everyone supports him. ”
"Also, the stone giant in that canyon must be Fu Ling's subordinates, and our guards saw it when you sent someone to assassinate Fu Ling. This time the rock bucket is obviously Fu Ling's revenge, and I am really flattered that you are not busy cutting off Fu Ling's head, but you are going to cut off my head. ”
Speaking all the words, the snacks on the plate were also eaten by Ning Ran.
This kid is a bunch of nonsense and doesn't pay attention to etiquette, but every sentence has a paragraph worth scrutinizing. The King of Mountains and Seas suppressed the anger in his heart and listened patiently to his nonsense.
"Come, give me a seat. Can Ning Gongzi tell me more about this king, how did you defeat that Fuling on your floating island?"
Ning Ran watched the servant bring him a chair and sat down: "It's hard to say." ”
"I'll tell you. Bo Wushuang's weak voice came from outside, and Tian Wuchang carried him into the study with his right arm. The moment Ning Ran flew out, Bo Wushuang immediately regretted it.
According to the personalities of their father and Ning Ran, they had to fight.
"See your father's father. Ning Ran hurriedly got up to greet him, and helped him sit down slowly with Tian Wuchang. "The demigod Fuling attacked the floating island, in fact, the retainers cooperated with the islanders to suppress the fire mountain clan in the floating island. ”
The Lord of Mountains and Seas frowned and looked at Bo Wuhai kneeling in front of him.
"Shanhai City has recently received a lot of floating island people, and my father must know it clearly. They worship the god of fire, the supreme god, and the guardian of the floating island is a god created by the god of fire himself, called Zhong Lijie, and even the Fuling is just a half-finished product without a soul. ”
The Lord of the Mountains and Seas was thoughtful, and the others also pricked up their ears and listened carefully, what the prince said contained too much information! He exhaled heavily, and ordered General Shan and these young men to stay, while the others went to wait outside the palace.
When Bo Shuxian turned around, he stared at Ning Ran fiercely, eager to execute this person for his father.
"Because Fu Ling has no soul in his body, he needs to absorb a large number of souls to step into the ranks of demigods. Bo Wushuang gently touched Ning Ran with his elbow, now is the critical moment, if Ning Ran can behave better, he will be able to smoothly propose the matter of peaceful coexistence with the floating island.
Ning Ran looked reluctant, but he still summoned the little Zhong Lijie in the imprint: "This is a trace of Zhong Lijie's soul, there is nothing else to introduce, go back." ”
The Lord of the Mountains and Seas stared at Xiao Zhong Li Jie, who was about to burrow back to his forehead, wondering if such a god had ever appeared in history. Suddenly, he had a splitting headache, and his skull felt like it was burning with invisible fire.
"Mortals have no right to look at the gods. ”
The Lord of Mountains and Seas slowed down for a long time before he came back to his senses, he rubbed the acupuncture points on his forehead, still thinking about this series of events.
"Even if Fu Ling was killed instantly, his strength was partially sealed, but General Hai and the others could not be Fu Ling's opponents. Erchen had seen some special traces of fighting on the way back from the floating island, combined with what Ning Ran said, it must have been the place where General Hai was killed. Bo Wushuang stood up, analyzing his opinion.
"First of all, the special feature of this rock bucket, the rock soldiers in it are far superior to the previous rock buckets in terms of wisdom and strength. In particular, the strength of that huge rock soldier was less than one-tenth of Fuling's, but it was not to be underestimated. ”
Ning Ran was tired of standing up, so he simply sat on the ground. "If you want me to say, Fu Ling was angry on our floating island, and he wants to give you a war letter when he recovers, Yan Dou is just his best choice, think about it, your descendants are buried in it and can never come out again, are you still in the mood to fight as the king of the country? Yan Zai directly entered Shanhai City from the north, even if there are many of your people, there will be no one to command. ”
"Ning Ran's words are reasonable, and Erchen thinks that the top priority is to gather the armies of the major passes and prepare for this war. For the first time, Bo Wushuang felt that Ning Ran was a little wise.
The Lord of Mountains and Seas got up and paced: "With that stone monster under his command?"
"If you only send rocks, you're not qualified. But he knows how to create things just like Fu Ling, who will create volcanic people with souls, and he will also create rock soldiers with different abilities. The black smoke that spews out can turn into smokers, and the magma can turn into worms, and in short, he is an army in itself, an infinite army. ”
"In this way, Fu Ling knows the news of the defeat of Yan, and will burn the flames of war to our Shanhai City?
Ning Ran looked at the conceited appearance of the King of Mountains and Seas, and muttered in his mouth: "Your Shanhai City is surrounded in the Fuling Mountains, and with this alone, a clear-eyed person can see something." ”
Without waiting for the King of Mountains and Seas to get angry again, Bo Wushuang hurriedly moved away from the conversation: "Yes, Father, you think that General Mountain has the power to move mountains, and that huge monster can transform the entire canyon, let alone Fuling." If we do fight, we may not even be able to leave a way back. ”
"Besides, every time that monster is controlling the mountain range in the rock bucket this time, even our soil cultivator can't borrow the power of the earth to escape, if Fu Ling controls the entire mountain range, then how can we fight him?"
"Tell us what you think. The King of Mountains and Seas looked at Bo Wushuang, and his face sank. Wushuang is not wrong at all, the years of peace are only because the human race of the mountain and sea country has bound two gods, and the prosperity of the human race is also exchanged for sacrifices.
Bo Wushuang sat up straight with a serious face, and he looked at Ning Ran on the ground: "Erchen thinks that the top priority is to make friends with the floating island. The floating islands are all fire cultivation, the flame method is unique, the subtlety is far superior to the fire cultivation in our country dozens of times, and the combat power can even match the entire Shanhai country. If our two countries have good relations, we can open up the mountains with our country and facilitate the flow of trade between us. Second, in the event of a war with Fuling, if the troops in the other passes cannot be quickly supported, the combat power of the floating islands can help us solve some urgent needs, and even stabilize Fuling from making a move. ”
Ning Ran rubbed his nose, he glanced at Bo Wushuang and lost a disdainful look: "But don't expect Zhong Lijie to help you, he is only responsible for guarding the floating island from foreign enemies, and he will not care about any wars and disputes." I can convince him that he knows your god of the sea, so he can let the god of the sea fight the god of the mountain, and be more energetic. ”
The Lord of Mountains and Seas remembered the personal warning of the Sea God, and looked at Ning Ran's eyes from anger at the beginning to appreciation now, if he wanted to talk about peace on the Mountains and Seas Continent, it was not a casual joke. Even within the Terrans, there was a constant struggle, and the ultimate goal of the monks was never to lead the nation, but to set foot on the higher mountains. Only by becoming an existence that is comparable to a demigod can you have more say in this world.
And this kid, although he is young, has a close relationship with the demigods, no wonder he has arrogant capital.
The eldest uncle Shuxian is a waste with no eyesight, and he never looks at him squarely; the second uncle Wuhai's comprehensive strength is very good, but he is dedicated to his younger brother and lacks foresight; the fourth uncle Wuxue is not his own, and he has no intention of interfering in this matter, turning a blind eye; As for the two princesses, there are not no empresses among the lords of the mountains and seas in the past dynasties, but they are still young and their personality and ability are not suitable.
Only the third uncle has no frost, and he pins too much hope on this prophesied emperor. Escaping from the palace, he has become better than before.
It's a pity that the heart is not ruthless enough.
