Two Great Silk Road Empires
During the period when the land of Shenzhou was divided into five dynasties and ten kingdoms, there were five empires on the four continents on the largest continental plate of the blue planet (the two continents connected by Europa and Asia), the Tang Empire in the land of Shenzhou, the Mundan Empire in the grassland land, the Guran Empire and the Oss Empire in the Ganges land, and the Zeus Roma Empire in the land of Europa.
The land of Shenzhou borders the Mengdan Empire on the Great Wall in the north and the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun; The land of Shenzhou is separated from the Guran Empire by a Himalayan mountain range, which is comparable to any moat, and can be traversed by ordinary people.
The Guran Empire and the Ostic Empire both bordered the Roman Empire.
The Montaine Empire was a long and narrow steppe area, bordering the Tang Empire of Shenzhou at one end and the Roman Empire of Europa at the other.
After the centennial prosperity of the Tang Dynasty was opened by Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, after more than 200 years, under the dim rule of Li Yu, the last Tang Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the land of Shenzhou was divided again, this time into five dynasties and ten kingdoms.
The five dynasties of this troubled era are:
The Later Jin Dynasty was built by Shi Jingfeng, with Youzhou as the capital and the court as the Showa Palace.
The Later Han Dynasty was built by Liu Huaiyin, with Haizhou as the capital and the court as the Zhaoming Palace.
The Later Tang Dynasty was built by Li Ketian, with Chang'an City as the capital and the court hall as the Taihe Palace.
The Later Zhou Dynasty was built by Zhou Zetian, with Luoyang City as the capital, and the court hall as the Taiji Palace.
The Later Han Dynasty was built by Zhu Yitian, with Tingzhou as the capital and the court as the Ziwei Palace.
The ten kingdoms of this troubled world are:
Wang Jianzhi, the general of the Tingce Army who guarded the Great Wall in the north, heard that Huang Chaoge rebelled, so he rebelled with the army, so the northern country turned away from the Tang Dynasty.
Due to the perverse behavior of the Prime Minister of the East and the Mainland, Nangong Chenyu migrated his people to the land of Jingchu in the south, so he broke away from the Tang Dynasty and founded the Jingchu State alone.
Nanyue State occupied Haizhou City due to Liu Huaiyin, and then annexed several states around Haizhou a year later, in order to cherish the memory of his younger brother Liu Zhiyuan, he posthumously crowned the lord of Nanyue.
After Liu Huaiyin became emperor in Haizhou, the island country in the South China Sea was worried that its materials would be blocked by Liu Huaiyin, so it broke away from the Tang Dynasty and established itself as a country.
The island country of the East China Sea was driven out of Chang'an City by Zhu Yitian and others because of the Oriental Journey, so the Oriental Island Country returned to the East China Sea Island Country and established itself as a country.
Xishan Kingdom is located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains, because the Tang Dynasty is about to be separated, so the city lord Ximen Rongshan violated the laws of the imperial court without authorization and privately concluded a military alliance.
The Four Wilderness Countries are located at the foot of the Kunlun Tianshan Mountain, because of the Ximen Rong Mountain, so Beishan Chenchuan followed the law of the Tang Dynasty vassal state and privately concluded a military alliance.
Shu Xiang Kingdom is located in the southwest of the Bashu Heavy Mountain, because Zhou Zetian in Luoyang City called the emperor, so it broke away from the Tang Dynasty, chose to merge into the territory of the Later Zhou.
The Eastern Wu Kingdom is located opposite the Nine Immortal Mountains, because the Five Dynasties were established, and they were afraid that the Later Tang Dynasty would not be able to protect themselves, so the city lord Ma Yinxu joined the nearest Later Han territory.
Bai Tuguo is located in Leizhou in the sixteen states of Youyun, because Shi Jingfeng wanted to give Leizhou City to Yelu Deguang of Mengdan, and then Bai Renyi established a country on his own.
At that time, the land of Shenzhou was in turmoil, and the originally unified Tang Empire of Shenzhou was also divided into five dynasties and ten kingdoms.
The land of Shenzhou to the land of the Ganges River has to pass through the South China Sea of the land of Shenzhou, and go south to the confluence of the Indian Ocean and the Ganges, one of the four oceans of the Blue Planet, and then come to the Ganges, the largest inland river on the southern planet.
In the sixth year, the first month of the foggy month.
Yun Chuchu, one of the five holy women, united the power of the three dynasties, Li Ketian mobilized all the high-grade silk in Chang'an City, handed it to Yun Chuchu, and sent his most powerful young general, Baili Xuance, to escort him.
Zhu Yitian sent a hundred Tingce Iron Horsemen from the Northern Border Country, all of them were selected from 10,000, and the horses used by everyone were all sweaty and bloody horses personally selected by Zhu Yitian from the Xishan Kingdom.
Yun Chu Chu is the supreme envoy, restores the former Tang Dynasty, and sends an envoy to the land of the Ganges River and the land of Europa every ten years to do cultural and trade exchanges, and in the sixth year, this day of the foggy moon officially set off.
Yun Chuchu and Baili Xuance and his entourage, starting from Chang'an City, went south into the territory of Nanyue, Liu Huaiyin knew the purpose of Yun Chuchu's trip, ordered all the cards to be released, provided supplies of daily necessities all the way, and ordered the capital city lord on Crescent Island to go far away from the east to provide the best sea ships.
So, Yun Chuchu and Baili Xuance and his entourage landed on Crescent Island from Nanyue, replenished supplies in Shangdu City, and then set off for the land of the Ganges River in a large sea boat, crossed the South China Sea of the land of Shenzhou, and entered the Indian Ocean.
In the middle of the fog of the sixth year, Yun Chuchu and Baili Xuance and his party got off the sea boat and came to the mouth of the Ganges River.
The largest inland river on the southern planet of the Ganges, everyone came to the mouth of the Ganges, and sure enough, the name is deserved, this time the river is as turbulent as the sea; The river is as wide as the sea, so endless that there is no end in sight.
Yun Chuchu and Baili Xuance and their entourage, after experiencing the maritime Silk Road, arrived at the mouth of the Ganges River, and when they arrived at the mouth of the Ganges, the empress of the Gulan Empire had already prepared several cloud ships and was waiting here.
The group boarded the cloud boat, entered the Ganges, and first came to the imperial capital of the Gulan Empire, where they met and talked with the empress of the Gulan Empire.
The empress of the Gulan Empire privately asked Yun Chuchu, an envoy representing the Tang Empire, to meet with Princess Goya alone.
The people who inherit the throne in the Gulan Empire are all princesses, and the princesses who will inherit the throne in the future need to go out for training when they are young, so the princess who inherits the throne is not allowed to let people know their true appearance, so as not to be attacked by people with ill intentions when they go out to practice.
Therefore, the meeting between Yun Chuchu and Princess "Princess Goya" was made in the basement of an imperial palace.
Then in the sixth year, in the second month of the foggy month, the empress of the Gulan Empire took Yun Chuchu and General Baili Xuance to the Ganges Gulan Academy together, so that people from the Tang Dynasty could take a look at the largest cultivation academy on the Blue Planet today.
In the middle of the two connected continents of Europa and Asia, the largest continent on the Blue Planet where the land of Shenzhou is located, there is a college called Ganges Guran College. This Ganges Quran College is a famous school of cultivation that has been known to everyone in the land of China, the grassland, and the Ganges for thousands of years.
After finishing the trip to the Ganges Quran Academy, the empress of the Gulan Empire held a banquet in the Loulan Restaurant to entertain Yun Chuchu and General Baili Xuance.
Until the sixth year, on the last day of the foggy month, Yun Chuchu and General Baili Xuance and his party arrived at a high mountain in the desert, went to the Gulan Buddhist Academy, and met their daughter Yun Yiyin and Baili Fusu and Jin Chan, two nine-star teenagers.
After seeing that his daughter Yun Yiyin was safe and sound, Yun Chuchu said goodbye to the dean of the Kuran Buddhist Academy, Dean Bodhidharma.
In the sixth year, at the beginning of the frost month, Yun Chuchu and General Baili Xuance entered the Ostic Empire in the land of the Ganges, where they had a brief exchange with the king of the Oss Empire for a few days.
In the sixth year, in the second month of the frost month, Yun Chuchu and General Baili Xuance entered the Roman Empire in the land of Europa, where they met the imperial head of the Roman Empire.
Then, in the sixth year, the entire month of Xueyue stayed in the land of Europa, and the head of the empire of the Romer Empire privately asked Yun Chuchu, the envoy representing the Tang Empire, to meet with the "Prince of Twilight" alone.
The people who inherit the head of the empire in the Roman Empire are all princes, and the princes who will inherit the head of state in the future need to go out for training when they are young, so the prince who inherits the head of state is not allowed to let people know his true appearance, so as not to be attacked by people with ill intentions when he goes out to practice.
Therefore, the meeting between Yun Chuchu and the "Prince of Twilight" was made on the rooftop of the highest building of the Roman Palace.
In the sixth year, in the last few days of the Snow Moon, Yun Chuchu and General Baili Xuance and his party from the Tang Dynasty were arranged to visit the cultivation academy in the land of Europa, the Romana Holy Sect Academy.
I remembered that when the land of Shenzhou was first divided into five dynasties and ten kingdoms, Bai Yulong, the son of the lord of the White Tu Kingdom, had been studying at the Romans Holy Sect Academy for more than two years, and he had been reading books for more than two years in the past two years, and he had not cultivated much.
The places where Bai Yulong reads books are all in the Twelve Constellations Temple, and the students who enter and leave here must be personally designated by Dean Athena.
In the snow moon of the sixth year, Bai Yulong walked into the door of the Twelve Constellation Temple, and the first floor was empty.
Bai Yulong glanced at the empty first floor, and then walked directly to the eighth floor of the Twelve Constellation Temple, after two years of reading, in the first eight floors of the Twelve Constellation Temple, all the cultivation books have been read by Bai Yulong.
There are a total of 12 floors in the Zodiac Constellation Temple, and the first eight floors can be freely entered and exited as long as the students designated by the dean. From the ninth to the twelfth floor, the entrance is guarded by a powerful barrier, and only Abbot Athena and the Vice Dean can enter, and the rest of the people who want to enter the ninth floor must be personally approved by Abbot Athena of the Sacred Cult of Rome.
In the space of nearly 10,000 square meters in the eighth floor of the Twelve Constellation Temple, there are only hundreds of books. However, Bai Yulong clearly knew that the value of any one of them was more precious than all the books he had read on the seven floors below.
The eighth floor of the Zodiac Constellation Temple is very quiet, and the entire space is clean and spotless.
In the eighth layer, Bai Yulong walked to the bookshelf, picked out a book about "Heart Refining", and then read it at the table, the content of this book was in conflict with all the books he had seen before, although Bai Yulong didn't know which was right and that wrong, but at least it could make his knowledge richer and more comprehensive.
Bai Yulong was very engaged in reading it, he was simply fascinated, the content of this book opened his eyes, as if he had completely seen something from another cultivation world, such as the sentence in the book, "Don't fight outward, but cultivate inward", these are things he hadn't thought of before.
Time flowed silently, Bai Yulong was reading in the eighth layer of the Twelve Constellations Temple, and he completely forgot the time, at this time, in the eighth layer, there was not only Bai Yulong, but also two more old men, and at a glance, he knew that he was a teacher at the elder level of the Dean of the Roman's Holy Teaching.
The two old men obviously didn't know Bai Yulong, and when they saw Bai Yulong for the first time, they all showed a look of surprise in their eyes, surprised that they were just a young man who could read the books of the eighth layer, but the two old men didn't bother him silently.
At this time, a middle-aged woman wearing a purple luxurious dress walked down from the ninth floor, looking like she was in her forties, with a solemn face, a pair of deep eyes, and a flash of essence from time to time.
After the middle-aged woman went straight downstairs, behind Bai Yulong, she stopped, with a smile on her face, and said, "Bai Yulong! ”
Hearing the sound, Bai Yulong woke up suddenly, and when he turned around and saw the middle-aged woman behind him, he was slightly stunned, then stood up and said very politely: "Dean Athena." ”
This middle-aged woman was none other than Dean Athena of the Sacred Church of Rome.
Dean Athena's voice woke up the other two old men who were reading books at the same time, and when the two old men saw that it was Dean Athena, they were shocked, and immediately put down the books in their hands, stood up from the chair, and bowed their hands slightly to Dean Athena, and said, "I've seen Dean Athena." The tone of the two men was heartfelt respect.
Abbot Athena of the Holy Church of Rome, a well-known figure in the entire land of Europa, because she is not only a highly respected dean, but also one of the top powerhouses in the Roman Empire.
Dean Athena glanced at the two old men lightly, waved her hand, and said, "Don't worry about me, it's okay, you can read your books." ”
"Yes, Abbot Athena." The two old men sat down again, but at this moment they could no longer devote their spirits and souls to the books in their hands.
Dean Athena looked at the books in Bai Yulong's hand, glanced at them, looked at them with a little relief, and said with a smile: "Bai Yulong, do you like to read these books?" ”
Bai Yulong nodded without hesitation and said, "Well, these books, the views told in many places, are inconsistent, although I don't know if they are helpful to me, but they can increase knowledge. ”
After hearing this, Dean Athena said appreciatively: "Okay, very good, Bai Yulong, it is really rare that you can realize such a truth, since you like to read different books, then I will help you once, follow me." With that, Abbot Athena turned and walked towards the entrance to the ninth floor.
Bai Yulong hurriedly put the book in his hand back in place, overjoyed in his heart, and followed behind Dean Athena, walking towards the ninth floor of the Twelve Constellations Temple.
Looking at the white jade dragon that disappeared at the top of the stairs, the two old men showed an extremely envious look in their eyes.
From the ninth to the twelfth floors of the Zodiac Temple, only Abbot Athena and the Vice Dean have the right to enter it, and if others want to enter, they must be approved by Abbot Athena himself.
As for the ninth to twelfth floors of the Twelve Constellation Temple, it is definitely the most desirable place in the minds of all the teachers in the Sacred Sect of Rome, because there are not only higher-level cultivation exercises there, but also almost all the spiritual treasures of the land of Europa.
It happened to be this day, when Dean Athena and Bai Yulong went up to the ninth layer, Yun Chuchu and General Baili Xuance and his party came to the Roma Holy Sect Academy.
So, Dean Athena took Bai Yulong and ceremoniously received the envoys of the Tang Dynasty who came from afar.
It was also at the Roma Holy Sect Academy that Yun Chuchu first met Bai Yulong, a young man who was one of the Nine Stars.
In the sixth year, at the beginning of the cold moon, Yun Chuchu and General Baili Xuance traveled through the entire grassland for a full month, and finally entered the Great Wall of the Northern Country.
The day Yun Chuchu and General Baili Xuance came back happened to be the last day of the cold moon of the sixth year.
Seven Words Summary:
Looking back at the five dynasties and ten kingdoms, the Han, Jin, Sui, Zhou, and Tang dynasties,
Yun Chuchu entered the Gulan first and saw his daughter Yun Yiyin,
Re-entered the Romana Holy Church, and met Bai Yulong for the first time,
The two Great Silk Roads and the Five Empires set off by sea and returned by land.
