Xiaoxiang Palace.

Wei Shuang was tied to the stone platform, surrounded by darkness, and his fingers could not be seen.

Wow!

Suddenly, dark green torches lit up the palace.

Da Da Da ......

The sound of footsteps came, and Wu Ji walked slowly holding a black jar the size of a human head.

Coming to Wei Shuang, a centipede crawled out of the black altar, Wu Ji pried open his mouth, and the centipede entered his mouth.

After a long time, Wei Shuang Huo Ran opened his eyes, and a terrifying black light flashed in his eyes, and then returned to normal.

After that, the return of the monarch of Jing State happened to stabilize the situation.

To the north, a little further north is Chongguo.

Chongguo is a large country in the west, responsible for monitoring the countries in the west and southwest, and was granted the right of a priest by the king of Shang to monitor the four directions for the emperor of heaven to defeat the unsubordinate.

There is a small city in the south of Chongguo, the whole body of the city is made of wood, the body is covered with moss, the tree people with flowers live here, the city is full of flowers, and there are flower fairies incarnated by flowers, flowers are clothes, bright colors are makeup, full of exotic customs.

Back garden, babbling water.

A young man with a golden crown and a velvet white robe, barefoot, soaking in a hot spring, accompanied by seven maids.

The man was two meters tall, with beautiful muscles, sword eyebrows, and a facial contour like a knife and an axe.

A woman knelt by the hot springs and whispered something in his ear.

This man's name is Zishou, the youngest son of the Shang King, the most talented royal family for thousands of years, and it is said that he can communicate with God and lead the ancient gods and men to come down to assist, that is, the emperor's minister.

When I came to Chongguo today, I also acted on my father to inspect the territory of the princes, explore the situation of the princes, and prepare for his future accession to the throne.

Zishou has great ambitions and will not be satisfied with the small territory of Heluo.

Since ancient times, the three regions of Heluo, Jianghan and Haidai have been incompatible with each other, and Zishou's dream is to unify them all, not necessarily to be incorporated into the country, as long as they admire the culture of Shang, believe in the gods of Shang, and abide by the system of Shang.

Then there will be no more strife in the world.

"Chu State...... After leaving Gaoyang, he believed in Zhu Rong Xuanniao, and the underground master of the witch ghost ...... "After listening to the story of the maid, Zishou was quite interested.

The speed of the rise of this country is not fast, and it is also a six or seven hundred years old country, but every step is steady and steady, and the foundation is very solid.

Generally don't do it, but once you do, you will get a lot of benefits.

From the point of view of sacrificial culture and customs, it has nothing to do with the big merchants.

"It's dangerous, it's dangerous."

This is the first impression that comes to the mind of the child.

If he is the king, he must let the priests of all parties join forces to strangle him as soon as possible.

But now it is not good, in terms of the degree of threat, Dongyi is much greater than Chu, and compared with Dongyi, Chu is insignificant.

"You go to report to Chongbo, I want to see the King of Chu."

Zishou's first thought is to recruit An, if the Chu State is submitted, it will be the best. If you are unwilling to submit, you can only raise an army to fight.

……

Mojiang.

The river is calm and sunny.

"Woo!"

The captain sang a ballad, and the waterfowl flew around him, and sometimes rushed under the water, bringing out a fat fish.

Underwater, there is a pale palace.

The palace is not large, with a three-story stilted building style, and its skeleton, wall panels, and pillars are made of a pale bone, which is the keel.

The palace made of keel, this is the keel cave house.

There is no water flow in the cave house, and it is isolated by a mysterious power, and it looks like an upside-down jade bowl under the water.

There are two women sitting on the stone seat outside the cave, one of them is more mature, with a plump posture and a phoenix bird pattern in the center of her eyebrows. The other girl is younger and has a thin build.

There was the crackling sound of flames burning in the main hall.

The cave did not open the door, and through the door, a man could be seen alchemizing with the jade tripod.

I don't know how long it took to practice, and bird-like smoke came out of the Danding.

Bang!

The lid opened, and three Purple Xuandans flew out, Tang Ping's eyes were quick, and he used a jade bottle to incorporate them into it.

The two sisters were very surprised when they saw it, and Xiao Ming said: "The alchemy attainments are so high, could it be that they have inherited the secret method of Huozheng under their father's hands?" ”

The most basic feature of the alchemists used by the Emperor of Heaven is to refine pills without side effects, representing the purity and exquisiteness of the craftsmanship. Alchemists with side effects are not qualified to join the Huozheng Organization at all.

Otherwise, if you eat a strange-shaped Heavenly Emperor, wouldn't it be majestic and sweep the ground.

Tang Ping put away the utensils and walked out slowly.

Zi Xuandan can still use up this realm.

When you reach the next realm, you need a new elixir.

"When are we going to get out?" Candlelight couldn't help but ask.

During this time, they have been locked up in the cave and will not be allowed to go out.

Tang Ping glared at her and said, "Let's talk about you first, how many people have you harmed by instigating Wei Shuang over the years, do you feel guilty in your heart?" ”

Xiaoming stood up, turned sideways, faced Tang Ping, and said a little puzzled: "Are you deliberately making things difficult, or is it intentional?" For the sake of mere mortals, you want to lock us up? ”

It's an incredible thing.

Tang Ping was also a little speechless, he didn't know what to say about them, this kind of person's bloodline is indeed powerful, and he was born with supernatural powers, which is not the same as the person who cultivates the day after tomorrow, and the acquired cultivation can also be refuted by whether you were a mortal before.

A little fairy like this is indeed more difficult to convince.

"All things have spirits, and no one has the right to take their lives, not even you. You feel strong enough to take the lives of others at will; In the same way, can I do with you casually? ”

"It's kind of heads-up! What kind of skills are these witchcrafts! Candlelight was not convinced.

Tang Ping glanced at this guy lightly: "I'm not interested, and besides, the detention time will be added for another ten years." ”

"You!"

"Twenty years!"

"There's a ......"

"Forty years!"

Candlelight wanted to say something, Xiaoming directly stopped his sister, told her to shut up first, and then said to Tang Ping: "I hope you don't regret it." ”

"Don't worry, even if Shun cheats the corpse, you will obediently serve a hundred years in prison. Also, this seat is a man who does what he says, and after he gets out, he will plan to get candles for you. ”

After that, Tang Ping saw that the two girls were about to quarrel with him again, so he swooped back to the cave mansion, closed the door, and no matter how the candlelight shouted, he didn't respond.

Back in the cave, he opened the notice and carefully read the information on it.

Most of the exercises of the Underworld Pact have not been moved, perhaps because the accumulation is not enough to open a new Pact.

Or maybe the underground master realm is not too high, so he can't comprehend a higher mastery. All in all, Tang Ping felt that in addition to the new Immortal Contract, it should take a long time for the other exercises to awaken the new exercises.

It's also very easy to learn new exercises, looking for them from the Sword Gorge Ghost Market, spending money to buy Haidai's secret method, and I've been very busy before, so I haven't had the opportunity to learn new things. There is another more convenient, that is, to ask the two sisters for it.

But Tang Ping thought about it or forgot it, he didn't dare to ask for it at all, in case these two people were vicious and deliberately gave themselves the wrong exercises, it didn't matter if they were wrong, they couldn't practice it. The most afraid thing is to get a fake one for you in the key place, which is a bit of an end.

"I'll examine you for a hundred years." Tang Ping thought to himself.

If you can't transform it, you can only kill it.

A hundred years is enough time for the water snake in the Xiangshui Cave Mansion to spit out more water holes, and even control the entire Xiangshui.

There is also the Bright Candle Divine Palace, Tang Ping always feels that he is going to come out.

Tang Ping returned to the Bright Candle Shrine, there were a lot more people here, and it seemed that some of the clan's masters had been absorbed.

Nanluhua commanded the major deacons.

"The rent of the merchants and stalls in the ghost city must be collected, don't bother after collecting it, so as not to cause trouble, of course, the most important thing is not to miss the rent, if someone comes to make trouble, stop it as soon as possible, and then report it."

"Yes!"

Nanlu Hua managed the ghost market in an orderly manner, as the most valued descendant of the king of Nanlu, and also the descendant who was about to break through to qi refining, he also participated in the management early.

Seeing Tang Ping coming, Nan Luhua smiled and said, "Senior, have you gone to help the Chu Kingdom?" ”

"No, how can I have this ability, it's just a retreat for alchemy." Tang Ping handed the bottle containing the side effect Zi Xuandan to this person.

The two exchanged pleasantries, and Tang Ping returned to Qunyu Mountain.

Tang Ping's current attitude towards the two of them is not to provoke, one is dying, thinking about breaking through quickly before he dies, it is estimated that this mentality will not be good, in case this old thing jumps off the wall in a hurry, it will not be good.

From the Wei Shuang incident, it can be seen that this person is vicious and ruthless in his heart, and whoever provokes will suffer.

It's better to go back and concentrate on cultivation, and it is the right thing to realize the mastery as soon as possible.

Half a year later.

Xiangshui Cave House.

The water snake at the top of the cave suddenly glowed white.

Tang Ping's land policy automatically flew out, and an extra line of information appeared on it.

【Xiangshui Contract: Broken Ni Mantra】Turning Water into a Dragon (1/800)

There is another spell, this method can transform the water flow essence into all kinds of dragons, a bit like the spell used by the two sisters last time, it is equivalent to a spell that summons temporary Taoist soldiers, and it is also useful.

Moreover, as a spell born from the Underworld, it can increase its lifespan after the cultivation is completed, which is generally fifty years.

Whether it's useful or not, it's refined.

The Jade Mountains fell silent again.

The state of Chu under the mountain has also entered a new round of repair.

Hundreds of years of development have already made the population of Chu exceed 60 million.

This time, I suddenly gained such a large territory, and I had to digest it carefully.

At the same time, the envoys of the Great Shang rode the Xuanniao to Danyang.

The envoy was dressed in black, wearing a strange crown, with a blue face and shining eyes.

The moment he landed, the Xuanniao turned into a swallow jade pendant hanging from the messenger's waist.

The guard of Danyang saw that this was the totem of the big businessman, and hurriedly stopped the subordinates who drew their knives to defend themselves, and stepped forward and asked, "May I ask who your Excellency is?" ”

"The envoy of the prince of Shang has come to Danyang to ask to see the leader of Chu."

The envoy only said that the leader did not say the king's name, which made the guard angry, but when he thought that the other party was a messenger, he was relieved, and let the king deal with the name matter.

"Wait a minute!"

The guards let them go in to give a report, and after a while, the soldiers came on fast horses.

"The palace is please."

Under the leadership of the palace attendants, the envoy entered the city of Danyang.

This big city of one million people is more prosperous than he imagined, and the crowds of people can be seen everywhere, sweating like rain.

Not only are there a lot of people, but the clothes are relatively neat, and you should have the habit of cleaning yourself up often.

The envoy came from Chaoge, naturally he would not be shocked by these prosperity for long, what really shocked him was that this place did not look like a barbarian.

If it was really a country with a unique civilization like Haidai and Western Zhou, then he could turn around and go back now.

There is no need to make peace, just let the king send troops to kill.

"No, there are still barbarian elephants." The messenger asked the attendants beside him, "What about your slaves?" ”

"We don't have slaves anymore, we all belong to our countrymen and have our own fields."

"And ...... you guys before?"

"We were savages before, slaves before ......"

Hearing the attendant's words, the envoy subconsciously moved away.

Barbaric, really barbaric.

There were words on the shops on both sides of the road, and when the messenger inquired, he learned that this place was quite easy to obtain.

In addition to nobles and wizards, other ordinary people can also learn at their own expense through apprenticeship.

"Barbarism, too barbarism, knowledge can be revealed casually."

The envoy immediately had a bad impression of the country, vulgar and uncultured.

Soon, they came to the royal palace.

The envoy's face suddenly turned ugly, and he said, "This is your courtesy?" What about Ding? What about human sacrifice? ”

It stands to reason that when the angels of the dynasty come, they must not hold a grand ceremony, kill a few people at will, and offer the best parts for their own enjoyment?

At this time, Yuan Chi came out from the side, with a flattering smile on his face, and said: "I'm really sorry, the small country and the widows don't understand the etiquette of Shangbang, and they only have good wine and delicacies." ”

"You are?"

"Yuan Chi, the secretary of the Chu State!"

Under Yuan Chi's three-inch tongue, the envoy's face softened slightly, and he followed the attendant into the hall.

Sitting on the main seat is Xiong Ba, the king of Chu, and there is an old man next to Xiong Ba.

This is Xiong Ba's son Xiong Ban, and he is also the son of the world today.

Xiong Ba lived too long, even if he chose his youngest son as his heir, even the youngest son became an old man.

When Xiong Yong's son died, the son was replaced by the youngest son Xiong Ban, and Xiong Ban has been working until now, stabilizing the rear when he was in battle.

The personality is not as strong as his brother Xiong Yong, and he is relatively honest.

"Meet the Chief!"

"You may be seated!"

Needless to say, the next conversation was naturally followed by bargaining, and the messenger brought the idea of canonizing the baron, and the king of Chu felt that the baron was small, and the lowest earl.

Under the last nonsense, both sides took a step back, canonized the country of the viscount, and incorporated it into the Dayi merchant system, which was not subject to arbitrary attacks by other countries, and could take action at will against the barbarians.

Of course, more importantly, they will sign a contract, as long as Chu Guoan guards himself, they will not conquer Chu in the next southern expedition, but will only teach a lesson to those countries that collude with the Yu people.

"The canonization ceremony is in Chongguo Yincheng, the prince is waiting here, and it will not take effect until Chu Zi goes."

After the envoy left, Xiong Ba was excited.

's own ability has finally reached a higher level and gained mainstream attention.

Of course, he did not turn to them, but wanted to gain more benefits.

"Yuan Chi, if I want to be the southern uncle, how much can I do? No, it's not low, it's okay for pastors. ”

"There is a lot of success, the south is an untouchable place for Dayi merchants, and it is more cost-effective to exchange an illusory name for the nominal allegiance of a medium power. However, the chief is a little difficult, and the priest can fight for it. ”

"Okay, King Ming Japan will set off in person!"
