Chapter 8: Returning Home
Jibei grassland, the largest grassland in the Great Han Dynasty, spans thousands of miles, and is vast at a glance. Two great rivers come from the snow-capped mountains in the north and pour into the Tuotuo Lake in the south, nourishing the Quartet, forming the rich Jibei Plain.
Once the nomads in the north encountered a catastrophe, they would start to go south, break through the defense line, or guide the Jibei Plain in the south, or attack the hinterland of the Han Dynasty in the southeast, plundering and robbing people and grain.
For the Great Han Dynasty, the defense of the northern land was extremely important, and under the premise that there was no natural danger to defend and no large fortifications could be built, intelligence became particularly important. Once a situation is detected, it is more useful to be proactive than to defend.
In the vast snow, more than 100 cavalry escorted two carriages out of Tongling Pass, but instead of going north to explore, they went all the way south.
The guards of the city watched the group fade away, with admiration, envy, and jealousy in their eyes. There are ten moon wolves in that cavalry, and being escorted by moon wolves is worth it in this life.
The snow line in the northland is getting farther and farther away, and after entering the southern part of the grassland, it encounters a downpour. But the group did not stop, but continued to move south, without stopping.
The carriage in front was quite large, with six wheels and four horses to pull it.
In the carriage, Wei Guangxiong, who was sitting on the wolf skin, looked at Qin Shaofu who was sleeping on the bear skin behind him, with a solemn face.
For three days, the Divine Martial Spirit in the Black Tiger state actually stayed outside his body for three days before entering the dantian, which was a terrifying number.
The main responsibility of the Martial Arts Division is to find strangers in the world, and intelligence is particularly important. In the Great Han Dynasty, in addition to the destruction of the ten directions of the royal family, even the intelligence system of the other god generals family did not dare to say that it was better than Xun Wusi.
Wei Guangxiong, who is the master of the Martial Soul Seal, naturally knows most of the information of the Divine Martial Soul. Historically, the time that the Divine Martial Soul existed outside the body after condensation generally ranged from two to five hours.
The legendary strongest warrior of the god general family, the founding emperor of the Great Han Dynasty, the god martial soul of the true dragon emperor Fu Ming has been kept outside the body for twelve hours, shocking the world, and it will really live up to its reputation in the future, invincible for an era.
And this wild seed born to Qin Yao, that black tiger actually kept it outside the body for three days, what does it mean? It means that this wild seed has a more terrifying potential than the True Dragon Emperor Fu Ming.
For Wei Guangxiong, this is definitely a bad thing, and the enmity between the two sides is impossible to resolve.
"Can't let him live!"
Wei Guangxiong involuntarily clenched his fist, and a black-armored soldier next to him who was holding a knife and was closing his eyes immediately opened his eyes and looked over.
"Hands are a little cold!"
Wei Guangxiong hurriedly explained, and then said with a smile: "The appearance of the Divine Martial Soul disciple is a great joy for the Great Han Dynasty. If His Majesty the Emperor knew about it, there would definitely be a big reward......"
"The general's order!" the black-armored soldier interrupted: "Go directly to Huyang City, after arriving at Huyang City, it has nothing to do with us." ”
"I don't mean anything else, I'm just happy for the Great Han Dynasty!"
Wei Guangxiong smiled, looked away again, and scolded in his heart: Damn Geng Cunzhong.
This is a soldier of a moon wolf, a realm of the sea of qi, or a warrior killed from the sea of corpses and blood, and his strength is strong. Not to mention Wei Guangxiung, even if he brought a dozen guards with him this time, they might not be his opponents.
Geng Cunzhong sent ten moon wolves to accompany him, not so much to protect this group of people, but to prevent Wei Guangxiong from harming Qin Shaofu.
Even when he was sitting in this car, the Moon Wolf soldier would also sit between the two, so that Wei Guangxiong could not get close. He tried several times, trying to get the other party to change the destination, but unfortunately it was useless.
There's always a way...... Wei Guangxiong looked into the distance through the crack in the door, thinking in his heart.
Huge potential means endless future, if Qin Shaofu is a royal disciple, it doesn't matter, but he is only a disciple of the Tiger God General's family.
In the past, the True Dragon Emperor Fu Ming could replace the Great Xia Taikang, and it was not impossible to say that Qin Shaofu might take the Great Han Emperor Fu family in the future......
The family of the five gods is no longer as monolithic as once rumored, and no royal family will not be afraid of the courtiers being too strong. As long as you pass on this kind of information and render it to the maximum effect, then the royal family is your best backer.
......
Wei Guangxiong kept thinking about it, thinking about it, thinking about all the plans he wanted to make in the future in his heart, thinking about them in detail, and even a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth involuntarily.
The carriage and horse traveled south, and after more than ten days, they passed through Jinshan Pass and entered the area under the jurisdiction of the Tiger God General in the western part of the Great Han Dynasty, Qin Shaofu finally opened his eyes leisurely.
Looking at the roof of the carriage, motionless.
Seeing this scene, Wei Guangxiong immediately shouted in "surprise": "Oh, virtuous nephew, you can be regarded as waking up!"
I wanted to climb over, but I was stopped by the moon wolf soldier, and I could only say half a meter away: "You know, you have been asleep for more than 20 days......
I didn't eat or drink for more than 20 days, but I didn't die...... Wei Guangxiong was very sorry for this, but at this time he could only pretend to be concerned: "You didn't wake up after sleeping in Tongling Pass for four days, and General Geng was worried about an accident, so he asked the Moon Wolf to protect us and go directly to Huyang City...... One more day to go. ”
Seeing that Qin Shaofu didn't react, Wei Guangxiong continued: "That night was really scary, what happened to you, nephew, like crazy, kill people when you see them...... Fortunately, you have condensed the divine martial soul, otherwise let alone leaving Tongling Pass, your life would be gone. I was careless, I should have left you with me that day and waited to leave together, so that this would not have happened. ”
The soldiers of the Moon Wolf still closed their eyes and did not react, but Qin Shaofu turned his head sideways and smiled slightly: "There is Lord Lao Wei, I'm sorry, I don't have much strength now, it's inconvenient to get up." ”
"It's okay, it's okay!" Wei Guangxiong hurriedly said: "The virtuous nephew has really experienced life and death this time, but fortunately, with the blessing of Ayao's spirit in the sky, it can finally be regarded as turning evil into good fortune." ”
Qin Shaofu nodded, and then asked, "Lord Wei, there is a reluctant request...... I was born in Tongling Pass, and now this is the first time I have left. I've also heard about some things about the Qin family in Huyang City, but I really don't know much about it. I'm back, I don't know if there will be trouble, can you tell me about the situation of the Qin family in Huyang City?"
He was indeed "asleep" for more than twenty days, but he was not completely unconscious, he woke up ten days ago, but he was in a state of dissociation, he could feel the situation outside, but he couldn't wake up.
These days, he thinks about a lot of things, and after venting his anger, he also calms down. He now needs to know more information about the world outside Tongling Pass, and the only one who can help him at this time is the traitor in front of him.
Wei Guangxiong was thinking about how to alleviate the relationship between the two, and when he saw that the other party was asking for something, it was not too much, so he immediately said it.
The five gods established the Great Han Dynasty, the Qinglong God made the family a royal family, and the patriarchs of the other four clans also became kings one by one.
In order to avoid the chaos of the fiefdoms and the decentralization of power among the disciples in later generations, the True Dragon Emperor Fu Ming ordered that each generation of the royal family could establish one emperor and two kings, and the other four clans could only inherit one king, and the other disciples could only seek fame and wealth by their own abilities.
In other words, even if a certain god achieves the position of a prince by a disciple of the family, his son and grandson can only start from the white clothes. Although it can be greatly boosted because of family influence, it is also possible that it will decline halfway through after not being passed on for two generations.
Moreover, the patriarch of each clan, the holder of that throne, could nominally remove the other clansmen from their positions at any time.
Under such a system, the throne of the imperial family and the throne of the other four clans have a lot of power, so that each generation may have a huge internal struggle for power.
The last battle for power of the Qin family took place eighty years ago, and the backbone of that generation of the Qin family was the German generation, and there were three extremely outstanding disciples, all of whom possessed divine martial souls. And today's ancestor of the Qin family, Qin Tianen's father, and Qin Shaofu's maternal great-grandfather Qin Deyong, was not eye-catching at that time, just like his name, it was extremely mediocre.
That power struggle lasted for more than ten years, and in the end, what was surprising was that Qin Deyong actually became the final victor.
It wasn't until the last moment that everyone knew that he was not as mediocre as outsiders thought, but he was also a genius with a divine martial soul. The youngest of the five brothers, he condensed the Divine Martial Spirit when he was ten years old, and then used secret techniques to cover up his situation.
In the decades since, he has never used the power of the Divine Martial Spirit in public, hiding it from everyone. When the vitality of the three elder brothers was greatly damaged, he made a move, and ended this power struggle in a very short time with the momentum of thunder, became the controller of the Qin family, and inherited the name of the Tiger Lie King.
Now Qin Deyong is closed in Huyang City, and the nominal head of the Qin family is his eldest son Qin Tianye, who is officially named the Duke of Longxi and lives in Huyang City, the only owner of the Tiger Soul of this generation.
The second son, Qin Tianen, although he does not have a divine tiger soul, as the representative of the Qin family in Tianjing City, he is officially named Tai Lieutenant and is in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, which can be regarded as a high authority.
The third generation of the Qin family, the fourth generation of the Haizi generation, are now also serving as officials in various important positions. As for the fifth-generation elders, they are all just beginning to struggle.
"I thought of going directly to Tianjing City, but considering what happened to your grandfather Qin Taiwei and your mother, we were afraid of accidents, so we chose to come to Huyang City first. ”
Wei Guangxiong said with a slightly flattering smile: "Although King Tiger Lie has basically not asked anything over the years, everyone knows that the real ruler of the Qin family is still him, as long as the old man of King Tiger Lie lets you recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, even Taiwei Qin can't say anything." ”
Qin Shaofu nodded: "Thank you, Lord Wei, for your trouble." ”
"Virtuous nephew, you have returned this time, and the future is limitless. A-Yao belongs to the Xuanzi generation, but the gods will not name the women of the family by generation, and the children born must have a family name. The virtuous nephew is the Haizi generation, and now it is the generation that the Qin family will become the backbone, and it will inevitably be reused......"
Wei Guangxiong continued to speak, analyzing the situation that Qin Shaofu might encounter after returning from all aspects.
Qin Shaofu listened very seriously, and he couldn't help but say that it was really not by luck that this traitor could sit in this position with the realm of martial souls.
This person's analysis of the situation and his control of timing, not to mention that he is such a fledgling kid, there are probably few people in the entire Great Han Dynasty who can compare.
Wei Guangxiong saw that he liked to listen to it, and he spoke more energetically.
Unconsciously, a day passed, and a huge city with black as the background color and majestic and mighty appeared in front of me.
Huyang City, the clan of the Tiger God of the Great Han Dynasty, the center of power in the west, has arrived.
In the darkness of the night, the cavalry escorted the carriage into the city gates, crossed the streets, and stopped in front of a palace that looked like a palace.
Opening the car door, stepping out of the carriage, and stepping on the thick stone road, Qin Shaofu raised his head, looked at the three words "Qin Wangfu" on the gate, and took a deep breath.
It was a nervous heart, but at this moment, it suddenly calmed down strangely.
