Chapter 8: Snowfield Ridge Nostalgia

"Childe, why did you return the Lingshan Wall to Nan Luotian? A person like Nan Luotian, we can kill eight hundred Qian'er with a single move of our fingers, and there is no need for that at all. ”

In the courtyard of the hundred flowers, Qingyi complained, squatting on the ground, holding his chin with both hands, and looking at Ye Qingtian with a puzzled expression.

Ziyi glanced at the green shirt indifferently, stood there straight, and said angrily: "Idiot, the spiritual mountain wall that Gongzi gave to Nanluo Tian is fake, I can't see it at all, I really don't know how you became a heavenly protector." ”

"Ah, fake?" Qingyi's eyes suddenly brightened, and he took a few steps forward to avoid his body, and continued to look at Ye Qingtian, wanting to confirm what Ziyi had just said.

Ye Qingtian sat on the rattan chair, gently stroked the guqin on his lap with his hand, raised his eyes slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and said to Qingshan: "Qingyi Tianhu, sometimes you should really learn from Ziyi, otherwise even if I continue to protect you as Tianhu, I don't think those old monsters will agree." ”

Ye Qingtian's words made Qingshan immediately pull off his head and grab his hair with his hands in embarrassment, but the puzzled expression on his face still let everyone present know that this guy still didn't understand.

Ziyi shook his head slightly, pulled the green shirt up from the ground, and said, "Don't forget, the fakes made by Gongzi are visible to a few people in this world. ”

After listening to Ziyi's explanation, Qingyi came to his senses, "So, the Lingshan Wall is still in our hands." ”

Everyone didn't answer the idiot-like question of the green shirt, Ye Qingtian also directly ignored this point, put the guqin away, and then took out a bag and handed it to the green shirt.

"This time, don't follow to Jianlai Peak, you go to the Lin family to find Lin Ziyu and tell him that their family's problem has been solved, and in the next few days, you just follow the contents of the bag. ”

Qingyi didn't let Ye Qingtian follow him this time, although he was dissatisfied in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey, and after taking the bag, he stood quietly aside.

"Ziyi, you take this jade pendant and immediately rush to Jianlai Peak, and hand it over to Gu Changhe, the sect leader of Jianlai Peak, remember, don't be reckless. ”

Ye Qingtian took out a white and flawless jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Ziyi.

"Yes, Childe. ”

After Ziyi took the jade pendant, he quickly put it away, said goodbye to Ye Qingtian, turned around and left the Hundred Flowers Garden, and rushed towards Jianlai Peak.

Ye Qingtian and Qianhe only left the Tianxing Restaurant the next day, and the way to Jianlai Peak was far away, and now that they had entered the area of human life, it was impossible for the gale to appear here easily.

In addition, Ye Qingtian's physique was weak, so it was impossible to fly in the air like other monks, so he could only rent a carriage to go.

Horse-drawn carriages are just a means of transportation used by ordinary people for transportation, and in the world of cultivators, such tools are not used.

Most powerful monks will find a way to tame a demon beast and use it for transportation, which not only makes them appear strong, but also makes them more stylish.

However, in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Ye Qingtian still chose to take a carriage.

Jianlai Peak is not within the territory of Northern Wilderness City, but far away from the border between the current Yuan Kingdom and the Taiyi Empire, the territory of Cloud Dou City.

Cloud Dou City belonged to one of the forty-eight cities in the two states of the Snow Plains in the northern part of the Yuan Kingdom, but now it has been divided into the Taiyi Empire.

Outside the Northern Wilderness City, it used to be a place where fierce beasts and birds of prey were rampant, but since the Northern Wilderness City was ceded by the Taiyi Empire, many fierce birds and beasts here have been expelled, and the former battlefield has now become a quiet and peaceful place.

Facing the morning sun, a carriage drove out of the Northern Wilderness City and headed in the direction of the Yuan Kingdom under the action of the coachman waving the horsewhip.

Three ups and downs, and in the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

Ye Qingtian sat in the carriage, his eyes slightly closed, and his body shook with the trembling of the carriage.

In less than a moment, the carriage suddenly stopped, Ye Qingtian slowly opened his eyes, and before he could speak, the loud voice of the coachman came from outside the carriage.

"Ye Gongzi, we have left the boundary of Yuanzhou, and if we continue to walk forward, we will be the boundary of Selangor, remember to add more clothes to keep out the cold. ”

"Thank you Uncle for your concern, Ye wrote it down. ”

The coachman is a middle-aged man, loyal and simple, who has been going back and forth between the two states for many years, and is unusually familiar with the terrain of this generation.

Although Ye Qingtian is weak, he has a gentle temperament, which makes him have a good impression of him.

"This Snow Field Ridge is the only mountain range between the two states, and the road is not easy to walk, so Ye Gongzi will have to sit firmly. ”

The coachman put on a heavy coat, tidied up, raised his whip, and went on.

Snow Plains Ridge, as the boundary between the two states of Snow Plains, Ye Qingtian is naturally very clear.

The Northern Wilderness City was the first pass for the Yuan Kingdom to resist the invasion of the Taiyi Empire, and this Snow Field Ridge was the last barrier.

If the Snow Field Ridge is broken, then the entire Yuan Kingdom is equivalent to a wide open door, and the iron cavalry of the Taiyi Empire can completely rampage through the vast Snow Plains and point directly at the Yuan Capital.

What is ridiculous is that when the Wuwang Mansion was destroyed, the four princes completely ceded the two states of Xueyuan to the Taiyi Empire, in exchange for a hundred years of peace on paper, which was extremely stupid.

As the night approached, the temperature became cooler and cooler, and after Qianhe put on a robe for Ye Qingtian, he lit a candle in the carriage.

However, at this time, the carriage did not stop, and continued to move forward with a bump.

"Ye Gongzi, there is a wicked ditch in front, I'm afraid I can't rest tonight, this wicked ditch is often infested by robbers, we have to pass here as soon as possible." ”

The coachman's voice sounded again, and Ye Qingtian could clearly feel that the speed of the carriage was speeding up, and his body was also shaking.

The night in the wicked ditch was unusually quiet, almost no sound could be heard around, and the vigilance of the coachman was raised to the extreme.

Perhaps because it was too quiet, the coachman who had been running between the two states all the year round was also a little frightened, and began to talk to Ye Qingtian.

"Ye Gongzi may not know that the robbers of this wicked ditch used to be the soldiers of the Wuwang Mansion of the Northern Wilderness City, and when the Wuwang Mansion of the Northern Wilderness was destroyed, some soldiers wandered here and became robbers. ”

Ahem, ahem...

Hearing this, Ye Qingtian's eyes suddenly froze, and then he began to cough violently.

Ye Qingtian covered his mouth with his hand, and after he recovered, there were some bloodshots in his eyes, and with a weak voice, he replied, "Didn't the Taiyi Empire send people to exterminate these robbers?"

"The Taiyi Empire has sent troops to encircle and suppress it several times, but the terrain of this Valley of the Wicked is complicated, and those soldiers of the Martial King's Mansion are all fierce and vicious, and they are extremely powerful, and after the encirclement and suppression failed a few times, no one cares. ”

"I think that back then, the Wuwang Mansion of the Northern Wilderness City resisted the invasion of the Taiyi Empire and made countless contributions to the Yuan Kingdom, but in the end, it was framed by the villain for rebellion, resulting in the destruction of the entire royal family, which is really unfair. ”

The coachman was originally a native of the Yuan Kingdom, and at this time he sighed even more, feeling uneven for the Wuwang Mansion.

Ye Qingtian clenched his fists tightly at this time, his eyes were red, and Qianhe on the side kept comforting, afraid that he would be too excited and cause physical discomfort.

"Uncle, how do you know that the Wuwang Mansion was framed by traitors, as far as I know, it was the Wuwang Mansion that the four princes of the Yuan Kingdom jointly suppressed back then, isn't the uncle afraid of getting angry?" Ye Qingtian asked out loud after calming down.

"Haha, Ye Gongzi is really funny, now this Snow Plains Two Prefectures is already the boundary of the Taiyi Empire, the four princes of the Yuan Kingdom, even if they know, what can they do with me. The coachman continued to drive the carriage and laughed loudly, as if he was extremely disdainful of the four princes of the Yuan Kingdom.

"Wuwangfu is the soul of the Yuan Kingdom, no one in the Yuan Kingdom knows, no one knows, the Wuwang Mansion is full of loyalty, how can it be a rebellion. It's nothing more than that the four princes are afraid of the Wuwang Mansion, so they made up a reason why this kid didn't believe it and got rid of the Wuwang Mansion. ”

Speaking of this, the coachman was also extremely angry, clenched the horsewhip in his hand, and continued: "Back then, there was the Wuwangfu to guard the Northern Wilderness City, and even if the Taiyi Empire was strong, it had never stepped into the territory of the Yuan Kingdom, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and they lived comfortably. ”

"Who the hell knows that the four princes of this turtle grandson will frame the martial king, and what's even more ridiculous is that in the end, they even ceded the two states of the Snow Plains directly to the Taiyi Empire, which is really a thing that is not enough to achieve and more than to lose, shame, it is simply a shame. ”

"We, the people of the Yuan Kingdom, were ceded to the Taiyi Empire, and now we are living better than before, and we are bullied by the people of the Taiyi Empire, so we are not wronged. ”

Speaking of this, the coachman's eyes were misty, and the words just now seemed to reveal all his grievances in the past twelve years.

"I really miss when the Martial King's Mansion was still there, hey..."

The coachman and Ye Qingtian have been talking for a few days, and through talking, they also know that Ye Qingtian and Qianhe are both from the Yuan Kingdom, so there is not much shredging to speak at this time.

"Uncle, don't worry, it won't be long before this piece of land will return to the Yuan Kingdom. ”

Ye Qingtian was grateful to the coachman, for so many years, he had been missing the Wuwang Mansion all the time, and now he knew from the coachman that the people of the Yuan Kingdom also missed the Wuwang Mansion, which made him more determined in his heart to revive the Wuwang Mansion.

"It's hard!"

The coachman looked up and sighed, then stopped talking, and drove the carriage with peace of mind through the wicked ditch.

There were no words all night, and there was no appearance of the old department of the Wuwang Mansion that Ye Qingtian expected on the way, and in the early morning of the second day, they had already passed through the Snow Field Ridge and entered the vast Selangor.

Selangor, named for its cold climate and perennial snow, is not yet very thick in the snow at this season, and horse-drawn carriages can easily pass through.
