Chapter 10: The Empire's Frontiers
Su Gan and the others came to the outside of the city and found Feng Yan's body, his body had been refined to be very powerful, and even if he died, there was still residual power, which made the surrounding beasts dare not approach for a while.
The two stopped in front of his corpse, and Su Gan gritted his teeth and flipped his corpse over. It was the first time he had touched a dead body, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared in his heart. But he realized that if he really went to the Purple Qi Sect to save Aya, he didn't know how many dead corpses he would have to face in the future, and he would even kill people with his own hands. Having such a lofty ambition, but still being afraid of corpses, can't help but make people laugh a little.
Su Gan suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and saw that in Feng Yan's chest, there was a twisted fire dragon entrenched.
This fire dragon was originally embroidered on his clothes, but now that Feng Yan has died, the residual aura in his body has been absorbed by the fire dragon, and the fire dragon swells up like an inflated, as if it has grown flesh and blood, and is about to be detached from his clothes!
"This is woven from the tendons of the Golden Scale Volcanic Jiao!" Su Wu exclaimed.
"The Golden Scale Volcanic Jiao lives in magma, their flesh and blood have a miraculous effect on those who practice fire attribute exercises, their tendons, skins, and horns are all treasures, which can be used to forge spirit soldiers, and can also be used to refine elixir!"
"This powerhouse uses the tendons of the Golden Scale Volcanic Jiao to weave clothes, and his daily practice can allow this fire dragon to help him absorb the aura of heaven and earth and increase his cultivation speed. But after a long time, the fire dragon has developed spirituality, and now that the master is dead, the residual aura in his body feeds back to the fire dragon, and it is about to turn into a demon!"
Su Gan leaned down, grabbed the fire dragon, and forcefully ripped it off the corpse's clothes.
Su Wu was shocked in his heart, only to see that the fire dragon was grabbed by Su Gan in his hand, and his body was a little swollen, but he didn't move, obviously unconscious.
"Looks like it's still a long way off. Su Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
The two put away the fire dragon, and Su Gan continued to rummage through the corpse's clothes, and found a bronze mirror on the corpse's chest.
I don't know what material the bronze mirror is made of, it is not gold or jade, and it is surprisingly heavy.
"Spirit soldier!" his eyes lit up. Although Su Gan's cultivation is not high, he has the strength of several hundred catties in one arm, and now he can't even pick up this bronze mirror!
"This is a heart goggle, it can be worn by a strong person in the spiritual aperture realm, it must be a very powerful spirit soldier!"
Su Wu is a powerhouse in the Blood Explosion Middle Realm, and his physical strength does not know how much he will surpass Su Qianfan, but it is not easy to hold this heart guard, so he put the heart guard goggles away. But seeing Su Gan shaking his head and sighing: "He has a lot of treasures on his body, but all of them have been devoured by Ayan, and now only this heart shield is left." It's a pity that the sword, if you can bring it back, it will definitely be a treasure. ”
He remembered the long sword like a phoenix feather that Feng Yan was carrying behind him, and Su Beibei stood in the courtyard to observe that day, and praised it very much, and liked it very much.
"His clothes are also treasures!" Suddenly, Su Gan's eyes lit up: "His clothes are also made of good materials, and he will definitely be able to sell them for a lot of money in the city!"
"Yes!"
Su Wu nodded and said: "This seems to be heavenly silk, tough and dust-free, it can be self-cleaned, and it won't get dirty for a long time when you wear it!"
"Take it back, take it back, these cuts can be mixed with other fabrics to make a beautiful set of clothes!" Su Wu's eyes brightened.
"But I don't know how to wear it, this fabric is not coming from the right way, and it is sold on the black market, so no one can find out about us!"
The two brothers cleaned up the body of this Wind Dragon Hall powerhouse, and then found the scaly horse tied to the distance and walked away.
The two disposed of the stolen goods, and it was late at night when they returned home.
Su Beibei sat in Su Qian's house, lighting the lamp and waiting for him to come home. Seeing that Su Qian came back safe and sound, Su Beibei breathed a sigh of relief and threw herself into his arms and cried.
In the past, Su Gan rarely left home, let alone went to such a dangerous place alone. Now that his father is in retreat, Su Gan is taking risks alone, which makes Su Beibei always fearful. Su Gan patted her on the back and comforted her, and then took out a money bag from her body.
The money in the money bag was obtained by Su Gan and Su Wu who went to the black market in the city to dispose of the stolen goods, and the two stayed in the black market for a while in order to sell it at a suitable price, which is why they came back so late.
Seeing that Su Beibei was counting the big dragon coins one by one, Su Gan smiled proudly.
Among the things they scavenged from Feng Yan's body, in addition to the bronze mirror, the most valuable thing was the fire dragon. Because it has been psychic, if it is bought back by the big family and soaked in spiritual liquid or magma every day, it is very likely to really turn into a demon dragon.
So for that dragon alone, Su Gan and the two of them sold more than eighty big dragon coins, plus those pieces of clothes woven from silkworm silk, the two of them were divided into five or five, and each of them got nearly fifty big dragon coins.
As for the bronze mirror, Su and the others did not sell it. It was too big and too precious, and the two of them didn't dare to take it out, for fear of causing death.
Besides, Su Gan was reluctant to sell it, after all, it was a spiritual soldier, and if he wore it on his body in the future, he might save his life at a critical moment.
Su Gan took out an imperial coin from his money bag and looked at it carefully, it was a gold coin, but it was not made of ordinary gold, but spiritual gold.
The obverse of the coin depicts a dragon with two wings, representing the Wind Dragon Empire. Beside the dragon, there are three objects around it.
The first object is a book, which represents the "Shengtian Canon", the canon of the empire's governance, and also represents the great emperor who ruled the empire.
The other is a winged dragon soaring through the sky, riding a hurricane. It represents the "Ling Feng Tianlong Gong", one of the three supreme exercises of the empire, and also represents the family of relatives of one of the three royal families of the empire, the Long family.
The third is the sun, moon and stars, the sun and the moon are intertwined and turned into Taiji, and the stars surround Taiji. It represents the "Yin and Yang Phase Heavenly Xuangong", one of the three supreme exercises of the empire, and also represents the "White Night Family", one of the three royal families of the empire.
There are only three royal families in the empire, namely the Zhao family, which rules the empire, the Long family, a family of relatives, and Bai Ye, a military family. It also corresponds to the three supreme exercises of the empire, Sheng Tiandian, Ling Feng Tianlong Gong and Yin and Yang Phase Heavenly Xuangong.
The Wind Dragon Empire was divided into nine states, and the ruler of each state was called the "Emperor", and the Emperor was canonized by the Emperor and was the ruler of a state. Manage all affairs in each state. Except for Yujing Prefecture, where the Emperor lived, the remaining eight prefectures were all ruled by the emperors of each state, such as Nanzezhou, which was ruled by Emperor Ze.
In the empire, the eight emperors were coordinated and supervised by the seven departments established according to the Sheng Tian Canon. They are the Rite Division, the Collation Division, the Courage Division, the Prison Division, the Lingwu Division, the Wuyi Division, and the Medicine Valley Division. Manage the Empire's ceremonies, laws, military, prisons, martial arts, commerce, and agriculture.
The strong man of the Wind Dragon Hall that Su Gan saw today was from the Warden Division. The Wind Dragon Hall is a subordinate department of the Warden Division, responsible for investigating the evil and strange things in the empire, and the Wind Dragon Hall is paired with the Wind God Catch, which is responsible for arresting the most vicious thieves and evil monks.
There are also many departments under the Department of Prisons, which are used to supervise the implementation of the Imperial Criminal Law and punish those who commit adultery and break the law. His administrator is the empire's feared Lord Jin, Jin Ruhai, known as the prison lock Qiankun.
The Eight Emperors ruled the world, and then supervised by the Seven Divisions of Shengtian, the empire was stable for millions of miles, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
The advantages of the Imperial Law can be seen from the landing of the Blackfall, and when the disaster comes, the Imperial officials and the major families do not stand by and stand alone. They actively rescued and loved the people like children.
On the back of the Imperial Coin is the map of the entire Wind Dragon Empire.
The empire's borders stretch for millions of miles, resembling a dragon with its wings outstretched. The empire is divided into Kyushu, each of which has a land area of more than 100,000 miles, and although many people have never been to other large states in their lives, even a child with a runny nose can say the name of the imperial Kyushu.
Yujing, Luqiu, Yunyi, Changqing, Huajin, Donghai, Ximo, Beiyuan, Nanze.
Imperial coins, also known as dragon coins, are extremely valuable. For the average warrior family, a hundred large dragon coins are enough to support their expenses for a year.
According to rumors, the reason why the value of the Great Dragon Coin is so high is that each Great Dragon Coin hides a very small fragment of the Empire's Three Supreme Exercises. Therefore, there are many great cultivation families and sects that are collecting the Great Dragon Coins, eager to piece together the fragments of the three supreme exercises of the empire.
Su Beibei returned the money bag to Su Gan, bit her lip and said, "Speaking of treasure hunting, there are many people in the family who have gone out to hunt for treasures, even the second uncle and they have gone. ”
"This natural disaster has almost destroyed all the family's industries, but it is also a blessing in disguise, in the past few days, the family has recruited a lot of strong people in the county, and there are even two monks from the Open Pulse Realm!"
"The family has recruited a monk from the Open Pulse Realm?" Su Gan showed a shocked expression, although the Su family was once one of the three major families in Dongshi County, its background was not strong enough to allow the monks of the Open Pulse Realm to take refuge casually. Moreover, most of the folk powerhouses in the Open Pulse Realm have their own families, and they rarely go to other families.
Su Beibei said: "Yes, they are a pair of brothers, named Qin Yuyan and Qin Guanshan, who used to be the guardians of Qinjiazhai. Although Qinjiazhai survived the catastrophe, it was broken by the Dize League. The two brothers, Qin Yuyan and Qin Guanshan, led a few clansmen to escape, and were rescued by the family's Open Pulse Realm powerhouse on the way. Grandpa Tai promised the two of them to take in the remnants of Qinjiazhai, and the two of them were very grateful, so they joined our family!"
Su Gan listened to Su Beibei's words in one breath, and the expression on his face also changed slightly, according to Su Beibei's words, now there are some more members of the Su family, which are those survivors in the Qin family village. When any force perishes, it must first escort the juniors of the family away. Because compared to a strong person whose cultivation has been fixed and it is difficult to make progress, a child with unlimited potential is obviously more important. Only by preserving the younger generations of the clan can the family have hope, and there will be the possibility of revival and even revenge.
Therefore, Su Qian speculated that most of these Qin family children who joined the Su family must be juniors, so he asked, "How many juniors are there in the Qin family village?"
Sure enough, as he expected, Su Beibei replied: "There are indeed many juniors among those people, about twenty or so, but their cultivation is not too high. I heard that the strongest of them is no more than the Spirit Bone Realm, and his name seems to be Qin Yang. ”
"Oh. As soon as Su Gan heard about the Spirit Bone Realm, he lost interest, and the Su family had a few more members of the Spirit Bone Realm, which would not have much impact on the power structure of the juniors in the family.
The brother and sister talked for a while, and Su Beibei was a little tired, so she was sent back to her room by Su Qian to rest.
Su Gan leaned back in his chair, thinking back to today's encounter. His experience today can be described as bizarre, not only did he unexpectedly obtain the inheritance of gluttony and become the host of Aya, but he also saw so many strong people, and even witnessed the battle between the two strongest men of the empire.
Most importantly, today's experience has given him the motivation to fight for it, and rescuing Aya has become his primary goal.
