The night sky is slightly white, the lake is like a mirror, there is no noise of last night, it seems quiet and a little weird! The sky and water are connected, like the first birth of chaos, and they can't distinguish each other. Read the full text of the latest chapter.

A red halo suddenly appeared in the distant sky, separating the sky and water, and the originally pale sky seemed to be on fire, and even the air seemed to have a trace of heat.

The fire burned bigger and bigger, and a large part of the sky was burned red, and in the vast water like the sea, the flames danced, and it seemed that an irrepressible power was germinating upwards, burning everything and ruling the world!

The night sky also wanted to use darkness to suppress the beating flames, but unfortunately suddenly shot out of the water ten thousand golden lights, the sky and the earth suddenly brightened, the golden light was dazzling, and the flames that could not be suppressed struggled to fight in the water, the red glow instantly dyed most of the sky, and a round of red sun rose in the water, and the glow forced back the darkness, and the warmth replaced the cold.

The sundeck was full of people, but there was no sound. Even the most naughty Blue Leaf Santong is sitting on the stone platform at this moment, and at the moment when the sun rises, he closes his eyes, his mind is one, and he feels the red sun rising, the purest aura of heaven and earth!

If someone stands from a distance and looks at the sundeck, they will be surprised to find that everyone on it will glow!

Xiaobao's body exudes the same golden light as the red sun, and the concubines behind him are yellow or blue, green or orange, which is a sign of the beginning of Yuan Dan!

As the divine beasts roared to the sky, everyone opened their eyes, and the green bead still looked at the water in the sky stupidly, muttering: "It's so beautiful!

Wei'er hugged Luzhu's arm and said, "Sister, when I have time, I will take you back to Caixia Mountain to see the Caixia there day by day, it is as beautiful as here!"

Lu Zhu nodded and smiled at her: "Good!"

Lan Yue'er hugged Chixingzi in her arms and said to everyone, "Did you see just now, there seems to be something shining in the lake!"

Everyone nodded one after another, just when the sun was about to rise, ten thousand golden lights suddenly appeared in the lake, and everyone could see clearly, it was definitely not sunlight, because the sunlight at that time would not be so strong!

The ten thousand golden rays of light only existed for a moment, and when the sun jumped out of the lake, the golden light disappeared and was replaced by a red glow in the sky. [To see the latest chapter of this book, please go to $>>>cotton_._.flower_._.sugar_._.small_._.say_._

But what kind of thing it was, even Xiao Bao didn't see it clearly! Lian Xin groaned and said, "You say, does that thing have anything to do with the Fish Leaping Dragon Gate in the Stygian Lake last night?"

"Probably there is!" Xiao Bao gave the answer, turned his head to look at her and said, "Because when that thing appeared, I could feel the fluctuations of the aura, and suddenly it was very powerful, and when it disappeared, those auras disappeared!"

Tie Yi bit his fingers and pondered: "Otherwise, I will select some brothers with good water nature from the Kiss Army, and go down to see it today?

Xiaobao immediately shook his head and said to her with a smile: "No! If it is freezing today, it is really inconvenient to go to the lake! What's more, you don't know if that thing is a treasure or a disaster, so you don't have to force it, if it really belongs to us, when the time comes, it will appear by itself!"

Xiao Dou Sprouts hugged Xiao Bao's arm and said: "It doesn't matter whether you catch the baby or not, the important thing is that my brother promised us today that he would go to Xianji to catch up with the market, you can't forget it!"

Xiao Bao laughed and pinched the little face of the little bean sprouts: "I can't forget it! Go back to the camp for breakfast, and then I will accompany you to Xianji!"

Xianji is just a border town, with a small number of people and a small territory, originally just a scattered place for fishermen in the East China Sea, and later the Xianyang King led his troops to garrison the Styx Lake, and it gradually became lively and developed into a small town.

It is about ten miles from Xianji to the Styx Lake, and it will take no more than half an hour to get on the carriage. The city gate guards have been taken over by the Xuan army, which is also the first county town controlled by the Xuan army, and no one from the Styx Lake will be checked, but those who come from the direction of Kyoto will have to go through layers of checkpoints!

Three carriages drove into the county town, and Xianyang also accompanied Xiaobao and the others. At this time, the county was the commander of the city defense battalion of the Xuanwu Corps of the Xuanjun Army, and he heard the news from the guards at the city gate and came to greet him in person.

"See the emperor..."Before Gongliangwei finished speaking, Xianyang interrupted him and said, "Get up!" and then leaned into his ear and said: "Emperor Zun is playing in micro-clothes, don't reveal your identity, secretly send someone to protect it immediately!"

Gong Liangwei hurriedly bowed down and agreed: "Yes, please go to the town to rest for a while, and I will arrange manpower in the town and arrange it properly!"

Xiaobao smiled slightly, walked over and said to him: "You don't need to bother so much, I believe that Lord Gongliang's means of governing the city are too bothered but conspicuous, let's just come and go shopping, have a play, don't drag down the people!"

Gong Liangwei was moved in his heart, and hurriedly nodded yes. Xianyang patted him on the shoulder and said, "Your brother is not polite, you let your brother-in-law accompany the imperial concubines to go shopping, and let's accompany the emperor to the north gate to have a look!"

"Yes!" Gong Liangwei knew the purpose of the fairy sheep, and did not dare to slack off, so he immediately sent someone to call the insider, and took Que Wu and others to the main street in the town to catch the market.

Xiaobao and Xianyang also followed, led by Gongliangwei, and walked slowly on the streets of the town.

Today is the day of the county and town gathering, and residents from all over the world will come, most of these people make a living from fishing, and some rely on farming, but most of them are scattered and do not form villages.

However, as soon as you arrive at the market day, you can see that there are a lot of these scattered people, and the market is full of people, and the crowds are like water, and the goods can be bought and exchanged, which is very lively!

"How many households are registered in Xianji now?" Xiao Baotou asked without replying, looking at the businessmen on both sides, most of them were squatting on the side of the road with their goods, not like the residents of the town.

Gong Liangwei immediately stepped forward and said to Xiaobao: "The resident population is 2,500 people, 703 households! There are two pharmacies, one inn, and three wine stores, and the floating population is about 3,000 people every day.

Xiaobao nodded with satisfaction, turned his head to Xianyang and smiled and said, "Lord Gongliang has changed from a military general to a civil official, it seems that he is handy and shows his talents!"

Xianyang laughed, patted Gongliangwei on the shoulder and said: "My brother has been with me for eight years, and he has always been serious and meticulous in his work.

Gongliangwei arched his hands, looked at the fairy sheep gratefully and said: "Everything depends on the cultivation of the general, Wei doesn't dare to be greedy!"

Xiaobao pointed to a pavilion about six zhang high not far away, which is also the highest place in the county, and said to Gongliangwei: "Let's go up there and have a look!"

This is a wooden building, it has been dilapidated, even the stairs squeak when you step on it, Gongliangwei rushed to walk in front, for fear that if the stairs are broken, the emperor will fall down!

Xiaobao looked indifferent, strode on the wooden building, stood in front of the roof window, looked at the scenery in front of him, the high mountains and rivers were in full view, and the Styx Lake was faintly visible as far as the eye could see!

Seeing Xiaobao's eyes, Xianyang stood beside him and whispered: "Actually, the original purpose of this wooden building is the watchtower, which Yinhu used to monitor the Styx! He was afraid that I would rebel, so he set up such a wooden building here, and sent people to monitor the Styx Lake day and night.

Gong Liangwei continued on the side: "Since the emperor worshiped the general, this building has been useless, so it has been abandoned day by day, and I am ready to demolish it and leave the place for other uses!"

Xiaobao didn't speak, just looked at the scenery below, and after a while, he suddenly said to the two: "If we let go of the city gate and lead the people into the city, what will happen?"

Xianyang and Gongliangwei looked at each other, not understanding what Xiaobao meant for a while. Xiaobao didn't wait for them to ask, and then said: "The number of people who travel to and from the county every day is more than the total number of people in the county, why don't we open the city gate and let these people come in and live and become county citizens?"

Xianyang's face changed, and he looked at Xiaobao in surprise and said, "Does the emperor want to accept the exiles?"

Gong Liangwei also nodded and said: "Now that the war is imminent, if the Yin Dynasty spies enter the city and wreak havoc, our army will easily cause a catastrophe if the inside and the outside are combined, our army will undoubtedly be defeated, please think twice!"

A red bird flew in front of the attic, spread its wings and soared between heaven and earth, crossed a graceful arc, gradually rose into the sky, and disappeared.

Xiao Bao turned his head and smiled at them: "You guys come!" Waiting for Xian Yang and Gongliangwei to stand on his left and right, Xiao Bao pointed to the county town below and said: "Look at our county seat, the original scale of tens of thousands of people, but now there are only thousands, so many houses are vacant, so many fields are wasted, it is really heart-wrenching!"

Gong Liangwei arched his hand and said, "Emperor Yu, those are all left by the defenders of the previous Yin Dynasty!"

Xiao Bao nodded, sighed and said, "So we have to make use of it and bring this place back to life as soon as possible! What we inherited cannot be a dead city, otherwise we will not be able to fight the Yin army in the future, and we will not be able to take more and bigger cities in their hands!"

Xian Yang and Gong Liangwei's faces changed, and this sentence made them see Emperor Zun's ambition, which Emperor Zun had always hidden in his heart, which made the two of them excited.

Emperor Zun's ambition is the combat effectiveness and goal of the Xuan Army, and Emperor Zun is finally not forced, but takes the initiative to face this war!

Xiao Bao shook his head and said: "Take Xianji as our main battlefield, the existing scale is not enough, we still have to expand the city in the short term! Our 100,000 Xuan army alone cannot resist the 500,000 army of the Yin army, we must rely on the people." Therefore, we must not give up tens of thousands of people because of one or two possible spies, who are displaced all the year round and are not recognized by the Yin Dynasty, we must give them a home, recognize them as our people, so that they will be of the same heart and mind as us!"

"Emperor Zun is wise!" Xian Yang and Gong Liangwei knelt on the ground at the same time, their eyes showing sincere admiration.

Xianyang has already sensed that Xiaobao has matured! He has already revealed the grandeur of a natural emperor, and his scheming methods have begun to emerge!

And Xiaobao also feels that he is different from before, it seems that this period of time is not for nothing, although there is not much enhancement in cultivation, but the mind is much more mature than before, this is also an important basis for enhancing cultivation, only a mature mind, can dominate a powerful cultivation!
