In the closed secret room, the oil fire shone brightly on the whole room, and in the room, suddenly a portal phantom appeared out of thin air, and then from the illusory to the real, it was a portal about two people's height, just more than the height of the top of the secret room, only to see the portal slightly adjusted, shrinking by itself, and then completely revealed.
"Empty!" There was a sound of the door opening, and a moment later, a young man walked out of the portal with a long wooden box in one hand and a large bag on his back, and this person was Wang Li.
Only then did he come out of the portal, and Wang Lichao touched the portal that had been opened from the inside. "Sure enough, it's an invisible barrier." With a slight gesture of his hand, he waved his hand, and the pitch-black portal vanished as abruptly as he had come.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a change when I went back this time, and in this case, many plans would have to be adjusted relatively in the future."
Wang Li thought so, walked directly to a table in the secret room and sat down, and put the wooden box on the table, the wooden box seemed to be quite heavy, and he gently put it down and pressed the whole table to tremble.
Immediately afterward, he put down his backpack himself.
Unloading a dry item on his body, Wang Li sat aside, sat in a cross-legged posture and sat quietly, not to practice, but to run the method of guarding the heart and forgetting the feelings, to eliminate all external interference, and to meditate on the future.
At this time, it was already three highs in the sun, and on the open space next to the straight road of about 400 miles north of the Great Liang of the Wei State, the camp tents counting hundreds were slowly being dismantled, and together with other luggage, they were sorted and packed and carried onto the carriage, and then drove onto the straight road.
In a slightly higher place in the clearing, an old man with a crown looked at the sky with his hands, extremely engrossed, suddenly unaware of everything around him, and the noise of people and horses when he started the camp could not affect him at all.
"Sir, since the beginning of the beam, Mr. has been looking at the sky like this every day, regardless of day, what is going on. So much so that Mr. Jean can't wait to keep checking the stars? ”
Clear voice. Jingling like a silver bell blown by the wind, the old man withdrew his gaze from the sky, and looked condescendingly at the seemingly chaotic but orderly camp scene below.
This Ji Yanran has been friends with him for many years, and worships him as his father-in-law, although the two are not bloody, but the relationship is not hidden, and he has also discussed astrological signs with him on weekdays. At this time, looking at him during the day, he will not wonder how he can observe the stars during the day like ordinary people?
"I'm watching the fire." A smile appeared on the old man's face: "It's really a big fire, it is the red nova that fell into the heavenly dome of Zhao Kingdom a few months ago, and in a few months, the little bit of flame in the past began to show the trend of burning the prairies, and at this time, it will vaguely burn through the entire Kyushu." ”
"This fire is truly wonderful. The original starry sky, the virtue of the main fire of the Great Zhou, and the appearance of black water virtue, and there has gradually been a great potential to replace the only one in the Western Qin State, with the original momentum, less than 20 years from today, the Qin State will go out of the customs and sweep Liuhe. ”
"But now, the momentum of water virtue has not yet been extended. But I don't know where such a spark came. Before March, the flames of Mars were almost insignificant, but they were more peculiar. But more than twenty days ago, this flame almost instantly filled the Zhao Realm. ”
"And in the last half month, the astrological signs have changed again." The old man looked up at the sky, and one hand was dotted in the air: "The flames faintly burned out of the Zhao realm, penetrating through Korea, Wei, Chu, and Yan. ”
"And now, Yanran, do you know what the situation of Lu Dao is?"
Without waiting for the beautiful woman on the side to answer, the old man waved his hand: "Up to now, the entire Zhao Kingdom can hardly see any more different colors, the light of Mars almost illuminates the Zhao Kingdom, and all other stars and generals have begun to circulate around him." ”
"And the country of Wei where we are and the surrounding South Korea, although they are not as good as Zhao Di, but now they are also in flames, and the stars representing the main strength of Han and Wei have begun to faintly surround the new star of Zhao State, and these three Jin lands have a vague tendency to be unified. And the states of Chu, Yan, and Qi are now also beginning to be affected by it. ”
"The confrontation between fire and water, between heaven and earth, great changes are imminent, and at this great change, I am more and more unable to see the direction of Kyushu in the future."
"Mr. Yi's five virtues are always said, the five elements rotate endlessly, water can overcome fire, how can you not see the future direction?" Ji Yanran asked suspiciously.
"Yanran, water can overcome fire, but if the fire is too strong, it can also evaporate the water to the end, now that the Qin State itself is insufficient, and there is even more internal friction in it, what if it encounters an unprecedented fire at this time?"
"If it was decades ago, when I was young and shallow, I still couldn't see this star clearly, but now it has been more in-depth, and some of the changes in the starry sky are very similar to those before I entered Yan decades ago."
"Now I can already be sure that in the next year or two, there will be a merger, this merger is aimed at the Qin State, and it is this merger that determines the general trend of heaven and earth.
"If the Hezong can break the Qin State this time, then the general trend of heaven and earth can be determined, once the Qin State declines, the fire will be unstoppable, if the Hezong can not break the Qin, then the future is not easy to say."
"Mr. Zou, Mr. Ji, Mr. Wenhe asked me to inform you that you can prepare to go." At this moment, a tall warrior followed by the guards to the bottom of Dexiaopo, and said hello to Zou Yan and Ji Yanran from afar.
"Mr. Lao Zhu has come to inform us, and we will start to prepare." Zou Yan bowed with the warrior in the distance and thanked him.
After watching the warriors leave in the distance, Ji Yanran on the side suddenly said: "What Mr. said about the new star that descended in Handan, I don't know if it is the prince of the Great Liang now?" ”
Zou Yan nodded slightly: "I talked to Mr. Wenhe last night, and I was sure when I learned the news of the recent Handan incident. ”
"Returning from outside the territory of Kyushu, just entering Handan, the king of Zhao will be valued, and want to worship the prime minister, the former powerful Julu Hou in the Zhao State fell in an instant, in a short period of time, there is a hidden trend to dominate the Zhao court, there is no one for a while, the new star is not this prince or who."
Speaking of this, Zou Yan glanced up at the sky again, and then sighed: "Let's go, Yanran, let's go to Handan to sit and watch the changes in the future, and see who will dominate the ups and downs of Kyushu in the future." ”
"I went to Handan, even if I can't spread the doctrine widely, but I can personally experience such great changes in the world, and it will live up to what I have learned, and I should have no regrets in life and death."
"Sir, Mr. Zou and Mr. Ji have been informed." On the side of the straight, the warrior from earlier walked up to a carriage and bowed slightly to a scribe.
"If Mr. Zou has been informed, let's start now." The scribe glanced behind him, then stepped into the carriage, and the warrior followed him to the chariot and left and right.
At that moment, the samurai leaped out of the carriage and shouted loudly in the surroundings. "The samurai stay on guard."
Under his order, the surrounding warriors reacted quickly, and each of them got down from their horses and gathered to the periphery of the camp that had just been demolished, and after a while, there was a slight tremor from the earth, and the tremor was felt, and the warriors hurriedly changed their formation.
I saw that these warriors were dressed differently and held different equipment, and the ones in the front were all holding a big shield in one hand and a short sword in the other, squatting down slightly, and arranging them in a dense row to block the direction of the vibration with a large shield.
Behind this column of samurai was a group of three rows of crossbowmen, the crossbowmen in the front row had their well-wounded crossbows on the shields of their leading samurai, ready to fire, and the crossbowmen in the rear were ready to take over.
There were not many people in the back, all of them were dressed in blue leather armor, the vital parts of the armor were inlaid with iron plates, one hand held a bronze sword, and the other hand had an arm shield hanging on the crook of the arm.
This group of samurai is not ordinary samurai at first glance, but more like people in the army.
In fact, the elite warriors in the Xinling Monarch's Mansion are all selected from the army according to the criteria of selecting "elite Wei warriors", and then carefully trained, each of them has their own combat skills are not bad, and they are proficient in battle formations, which is indeed not comparable to the ordinary so-called elite warriors.
A moment later, a group of more than sixty knights stopped at the place where the warriors were in front of the array, and then a handsome man dressed in white rode out of the crowd.
"Ahead is Mr. Zou and Ji and his party."
"Long Yang-kun?" Wei Wenhe and Zhu Hai glanced at each other, their eyes staring at the same time.
The man shouted, and then his eyes fell on the carriage behind the warriors: "I have long heard that Mr. Wei and Mr. Zhu escorted Mr. Zou to Zhao Guo on behalf of Xinlingjun. ”
Wei Wenhe looked at the man opposite, and suddenly said to Zhu Hai: "Zhu Hai, disperse the guards, be careful." ”
In the words, both to disperse the guards, but also to be careful and vigilant, the words seemed to be a little contradictory, Zhu Hai nodded, walked to the guards and whispered a few words, and the guards immediately scattered everywhere, just around the carriage.
At this time, as long as those who understand the art of war come to see it, they will definitely be able to see that although these people have dispersed in a large formation, they can form a small formation at any time in a group of several people.
After the guards dispersed, Wei Wenhe walked alone to the place where the guards were lined up before, and bowed to Long Yangjun: "Wenhe greeted the king, but he didn't know that the king had arrived, Wenhe missed the distance, and asked you to Haihan?" ”
"Mr. Wenhe, how do you say this, the greeting ceremony just now is very good, I can see that Mr. is so elite, this gentleman is very satisfied, sir, Long Yang is going to Handan to walk with Mr. and Ji all the way, and the safety along the way is please."
Listening to Long Yangjun's please, Wei Wenhe's face trembled slightly, and then he regained his peace: "It is Wenhe's honor to be able to escort you to Handan, but I don't know what is the matter with Jun's trip to Handan, what can Wenhe do to help?" ”
"Yanran, I'm afraid our journey won't be very peaceful." Only then did he get into the carriage, listening to Wei Wenhe and Long Yangjun's words and answers, Zou Yanhu and Ji Yanran said. (To be continued.) )
