Chapter 215: A Letter from the Taizhou Empire
There are talents from generation to generation, and a generation of new people replaces old people.
Qin Feng, Chop Wuyan, Liu Qingtian and others rose strongly, and among the eight princes of the last session, the smash hit Sword Son, Ben Lei Son, Dao Gongzi, and Ghost Yu Son all fell off the list.
The twilight of heroes, the change of dynasties! It can often arouse people's deep feelings, especially when everyone sees Ben Lei Gongzi and Hu Yidao leaving the scene lonely, they are all sighing for a long time.
Of course, feeling the sadness of the autumn is a feeling, and worshipping the strong is the eternal main theme.
The earth dragon turned over, and there was a reincarnation in thirty years. On September 9, the Five Kingdoms Martial Artists were ranked in the Eight Heavens Sect. On November 11th, the battle between the Eight Divine Sects of the True Dragon Purple Qi and the Eight Gods Sect enjoying the world's luck was the focus of people's attention.
In particular, the battle of the Eight Gods Sect, also known as the battle of luck, the so-called luck is extremely blessed, and here you can understand it as an upgraded version of luck.
Anyway, those who get luck will have eternal luck and eternal luck, which is almost an immutable truth.
However, since the Ying Dynasty took control of the Great Qin Empire, it has participated in nine selections and experienced three Earth Dragon turnovers, but none of them have successfully squeezed into the ranks of the Eight Divine Sects, let alone enjoy the blessings of the world's luck.
This generation finally appeared to win the battle day, breaking through the Martial King at the age of eighteen, and reaching the middle level at the age of twenty, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time.
The selection of the Eight Gods Sect is carried out every ten years, and the last selection started when Ying Zhantian was sixteen years old, although he had already shown his edge at that time, but it was obviously not enough to participate in the ranking of the Eight Gods Sect.
And after a reincarnation of ten years, today's Winning Battle Day is twenty-six years old.
Childe, Tianzong, and Shenzong, which are all synonymous with the younger generation, almost lose their qualifications as soon as they are over twenty-five years old. Therefore, although Winning Zhantian is a genius, it is destined to not be able to enjoy the luck of the human race.
Seeing that people have gradually become accustomed to it, they are numb, but this session of the Eight Great Princes has given them hope.
In the past, there was the first place in the eight princes of the Three Realms, with a strong background and strong strength, and then there was Qin Feng, who was full of momentum and leapfrogged challenges like drinking water, and no one knew his bottom line so far.
I don't dare to say that I am firmly seated in the Eight Gods Sect, at least there is definitely a place for two people in the Eight Heavens Sect.
However, as time passed little by little, five days passed in a blink of an eye, and the messenger sent by the Taixuan Empire had arrived, and Qin Feng had not woken up yet, and people finally began to panic!
The winner king personally came to investigate twice, and Hu Yancuo has been waiting here day and night.
"Qin Gongzi, you've finally woken up!" In the hall of the Alchemist Guild, Hu Yan, who had been pacing up and down in a hurry, saw Qin Feng appear, and was overjoyed, and instantly greeted him.
Qin Feng understood it in his heart, but he still made a surprised expression and said, "Uncle Huyan, you are ......"
"Qin Gongzi is like this, that day, due to the malicious disturbance of the Red Blood Holy Sect, Qin Gongzi was seriously injured and comatose and could not continue to compete, but His Majesty Emperor Ying appreciated talents and made an exception to nominate Qin Gongzi as one of the Eight Great Princes.
Of course, with the strength of Qin Gongzi, he is one of the eight princes, which is also expected. And now the envoy of the Great Xuan Empire has been here for two days, and he has even brought the new Eight Great Princes of the Great Yue Empire.
According to the usual practice, the Great Qin Empire, as the host, was to prepare a banquet for Taixuan and the guests of Dayue, and invited the genius disciples of the two sides to meet first, but because Qin Gongzi was still in a coma, it has been deduced until now. ”
"Oh, then the Taixuan envoy has no complaints?"
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, after all, Great Qin belonged to a vassal empire, and it seemed that there was little suspicion of disrespect for neglecting the envoys, right?
Hu Yancuo smiled bitterly and said: "The Great Yue Empire has expressed its dissatisfaction with this many times, but the Taixuan Envoy originally wanted to take this opportunity to review the genius strength of the two sides, and for such a thing, they are naturally happy to see it come to fruition." ”
"That's right!" Qin Feng nodded knowingly.
Hu Yancuo arched his hand and said: "The old man has been waiting in the Alchemist Guild for the past few days, just to inform Qin Gongzi that tonight's banquet will be held in the mansion of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, I hope that Gongzi can understand that His Royal Highness has not obtained the consent of Qin Gongzi, and at the same time, I also hope that Qin Gongzi can go to the banquet on time." ”
"The Second Prince's Mansion...... Okay, you go back and tell Yingyi, I will go to the banquet on time. ”
After receiving Qin Feng's affirmative reply, Hu Yancuo nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then the old man will leave first!"
"Hmm. Qin Feng nodded, and then sent Hu Yancuo out of the alchemist guild hall, looking at Hu Yancuo's back, Qin Feng's eyes flickered a little: "Second Prince's Mansion!
Of course, Qin Feng really blamed Emperor Ying this time! This time, in addition to the envoys of the Taixuan Empire, the people who came from the Dayue Empire were mainly people of the younger generation, and the soldiers came to block the water and cover the earth.
And the last time, that is, three years ago, when the Great Qin Empire and the Taixuan envoy went to Dayue, they were set in the Prince's Mansion at that time.
Now that the eldest prince of the Great Qin Empire has not returned to the battle so far, it is natural that Ying Yi, the head of the eight princes and the second prince, will take over.
"Xue Yi, nothing major has happened in the house in the past few days, right?" looked at the sky, it was still noon, Qin Feng said hello to Shangguan Xinghe, seven days, what should be said to go home and take a look.
Xue Yi shook his head and said, "It's not a big deal, but it'...... Two days ago, Madknife sent a letter. ”
"Crazy Knife. ”
Qin Feng frowned, he clearly remembered that when the Crazy Knife left, he had said that he would come back in ten days at the earliest, and he would come back in January at the latest, but now that the January period has passed, the Crazy Knife has not come back, could it be that he has encountered some trouble?
He took the letter handed over by Xue Yi, which was printed with the official seal of the Taizhou Empire, and it was obvious that it was the hometown of the Crazy Knife.
The letterhead was opened, obviously Xue Yi avoided having something urgent to deal with, opened it in advance, and didn't think much about it Qin Feng took out the contents of the envelope, a piece of stationery, and a ring.
Take a closer look, that ring is exactly what Qin Feng gave to the mad knife before he left, and seeing this, Qin Feng couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart. Continue to open the letter, and you can see a short line of handwriting:
"Qin Gongzi, since you have seen this letter, it means that the mad knife has disappointed you again, this trip back to your hometown to visit relatives is very smooth, don't worry. ”
On the way, the mad knife also paid attention to the national conditions of the Great Qin Empire, and the three thousand soldiers of the blade wiped out the 50,000 army of the Japanese people without blood, and the mad knife believed that this was just the beginning, under the leadership of Qin Gongzi, the blade was destined to become a real sharp knife, and the myth of never being defeated on the battlefield. ”
However, my mother is over 60 years old, and her health is gradually declining. Everyone has their own ambitions, and the crazy knife has passed the age of letting go of dreams, and now I want to give my wife and children a safe home, so that the old mother can live for a long time. ”
"The golden crystal in the ring was given by the son, the crazy knife was embarrassed, and he lived up to the expectations of the son, so he was naturally not eligible to enjoy the gift of the son, and now he has returned it all, and I hope that the son will not blame him, no hanging!"
- Crazy Knife. ”
"Alas...... It's a pity that he is such a general!" Shaking his head, Qin Feng still put the letter into the ring with some regret, and continued to walk in the direction of the Yiyong Marquis Mansion.
To tell the truth, Qin Feng admires the character and personality of the Crazy Knife very much, the Blade only has three thousand commanders, even if the Three Eyes show a strong ability to dominate, Qin Feng has left the position of leader vacant, just hoping that the Crazy Knife will return as scheduled.
But filial piety comes first, and it is a matter of course for children to support the elderly, and Qin Feng had to silently bless him.
During the walk, it didn't take long for the two of them to return to the Yiyong Marquis Mansion, and seeing Fu Bo go out to greet him, Qin Feng asked casually: "By the way, Fu Bo, how long does it take for the Taizhou Empire to go back and forth from the Great Qin Empire?"
"Great Zhou Empire......" Fu Bo pinched his chin and thought for a moment: "If you hurry up, it will take about ten days." ”
"Oh. Qin Feng nodded, didn't think much about it, and continued to walk into the mansion, but after a while, he asked without giving up: "What if it's a letter?"
Fu Bo didn't know why Qin Feng cared about this, but he still replied honestly: "If it's an urgent item, the speed is about the same, but it will take about six or seven days because of the delay in transferring stations." ”
"Six or Seven Days ......"
Qin Feng muttered to himself, as if he had caught such a flaw in the dark, and then took out the letter and the ring of the mad knife, looked at it carefully for a long time, and suddenly changed his expression and said: "It's not good!
"What?" Fu Bo and Xue Yi both looked at Qin Feng in surprise.
Qin Feng took a deep breath and said: "When Crazy Dao left, he once said that he would come back in ten days at the earliest, and he would come back in a month at the latest.
First, I haven't been home for more than ten years since I joined the army, and my mother is probably gone, and my wife has even remarried. Second, the wife and the old man are there, and they spend 20 days with the family and settle them down. ”
"But didn't the mad knife say that the old mother needs to be taken care of in her old age?" Xue Yi wondered.
"That's right, I was misled by this statement at first. Qin Feng nodded, and handed the letter in his hand to Xue Yiyi: "How long has it been since you read the handwriting on this letter?"
After taking the letter and reading it, Xue Yi shook his head and said, "I can't see it." ”
"I'll take a look!" Fu Bo bowed slightly, then took the letter from Xue Yi's hand and put it on the tip of his nose to sniff, and then said: "It's hard to judge the specifics, but it should be about half a month." ”
Qin Feng nodded and said, "That's right, it was July 11 when the mad knife left, and the letter was delivered to the Yiyong Marquis Mansion two days ago, which means August 13, a difference of thirty-two days.
Earlier, Fu Bo said that the letter should be delivered in about seven days, which means that the letter was sent almost exactly twenty-five days after the Crazy Knife left here, and that time also happened to be the deadline for the Crazy Knife to rush back to the Great Qin Empire within the agreed time.
Why wait for a deadline when the letter has already been written in advance? Have you ever thought about it?"
"Crazy Knife has always wanted to come back!" a clear glint in Fauber's eyes.
Qin Feng nodded and said, "If my guess is correct, Crazy Knife should have sent the letter to the letter house in advance, and told the staff who told the letter house that if he didn't come to get the letter back when the deadline came, he would send it out."
The only possibility is that Madknife is going to do something extremely dangerous. And now we've received a letterhead stating that most of the time something has happened to the knife. ”
