Chapter 5: Hokuriku Ghost Side
The cherry trees are blinded and covered with snow. Hokuriku Onifang, Yachi Shrine.
In a solemn and quiet palace, Wei Zhongtang, known as the "First Wise Man of the Ghost Fang", stood in front of a huge map and gave a passionate speech.
I saw him feverishly pointing to a place on the map and saying loudly: "This land is the best gift from the heavens to our Ghost Fang Empire!" "At one end of his finger is the Eastern Wilderness.
"There is an old saying in the Great Wilderness that the building near the water gets the moon first! This is also the advantage of our Ghost Fang Empire! Wei Zhongtang preached ambitiously.
After finishing speaking, Wei Zhongtang picked up the teacup on his seat, took a sip, and continued to shout: "We need to send more warriors and ghosts to the Eastern Wilderness to probe for information and attack them, so that they will be even weaker. When the time comes, you can directly send troops to start a war. The Great Wilderness Untouchables don't deserve such a beautiful and rich land! ”
"Yes, the Great Wilderness Untouchables don't deserve to have such a rich land, kill them all." Someone in the audience yelled loudly.
"Report to the general, hundreds of ghosts under my plateau field have infiltrated the Great Wilderness Country half a year ago to carry out all kinds of destruction." Someone invited merit.
"The general is wise, the Eastern Wilderness Land should be the hunting ground of my Ghost Fang Empire." Many ghost ministers in the audience said in unison.
Wei Zhongtang saw that everyone in the audience supported him in unison, and his heart was also full of pride. Ever since he replaced Ning Chu Invincible as the master of this Eight Miscellaneous Divine Palace twelve years ago, he secretly vowed to do something great and live up to the expectations of everyone in the Ghost Fang.
For the lord of a country, there is no greater achievement in this world than opening up the territory and expanding the territory, not to mention that there is a lot of fat and fresh meat next to the Ghost Fang Empire. Therefore, after taking power, Wei Zhongtang immediately used the power in his hands to kick out all those who did not want to make progress from the Eight Miscellaneous Divine Palace.
The Ghost Fang Empire does not need to be satisfied with the status quo, it will only be a person who is greedy for pleasure. For this reason, Wei Zhongtang even did not hesitate to offend those former best friends.
"The Great Wilderness is a sleeping lion, and our Hokuriku Ghost Fang is just a relatively strong mouse, no matter how strong the mouse is, it is impossible to defeat the lion. One day in the future, when this male master wakes up, the ghost party is only afraid that he will suffer a catastrophe! I suggest reconciling with the Great Wilderness! Suddenly, a discordant voice rang out in the audience.
Wei Zhongtang's face darkened instantly, but he didn't expect that under his iron-blooded wrist, some little mice were still missing.
"Bastard! Coward! Suddenly, all kinds of insults sounded, which finally made Wei Zhongtang's face look a little better.
At this time, all the ministers of the Ghost Fang Country were like gamblers with red eyes, and they all looked at this person who had ruined their own interest by making a loud noise, and they were eager to drive this person out of the main hall.
In the face of this aggressive nation, the voice of peace and justice is so weak and powerless that no one even wants to listen to it.
At this time, Wei Zhongtang was full of spirit, ambitious, and his eyes were full of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.
It's just that he never thought that one day ten years later, when Wu Wulu led the army to raise his sword and leap into Yening City, the imperial capital of the Ghost Fang, the first wise man who controlled the Ghost Fang army, would say the classic saying: "The biggest misfortune of the Ghost Fang is that it is too far from heaven and too close to the Great Wilderness!" ”
After finishing speaking, General Wei, who was called the "King of Big Stomach" by later generations, hanged himself in this way.
This ambitious and world-dominating Hokuriku monarch finally ended up with a dead country and a ruined country, and the two famous sayings that once described the distance between the Hokuriku Ghost Fang and the Great Wilderness with two completely different attitudes have also become his only achievements left in history, allowing him to successfully mention the nickname of "King of Big Stomach".
This is how history punishes the defeated.
Later history books record as follows: In the twenty-first year of the new era, the military god Wu Lu from the Great Wilderness led the army to break through Yening City, the imperial capital of the Ghost Fang, and Wei Zhongtang, who was the general of the Ghost Fang at the time, committed suicide in the main hall of the Eight Strange Divine Palace. So far, the ghost country, which has been standing in the north of the Great Wilderness, has died.
The breeze is blowing and the sun is shining.
As an all-round talent of the hotel, in addition to helping to serve the dishes to the table every day, he will also wash the dishes and wash the dishes in his free time, and occasionally help the boss to reconcile, and even sometimes when the restaurant is short of manpower, he has to be responsible for the work of a part-time chef.
Suddenly, a burst of footsteps rang in my ears. When Wu Lu looked up, he saw a woman in her forties coming up.
This woman is a long-time worker who washes vegetables in the back kitchen of the hotel, and has always been known for her love of gossip and being well-informed.
"Wu Wulu, have you heard? The eldest lady may be going to the imperial capital in a few days. The woman suddenly said mysteriously.
"Huh? Aunt Hua, what's going on? Wu Lu was taken aback.
"I heard from Mrs. just now that after so many years of hard work, I finally got in touch with the imperial capital family recently. Today, Miss's own family even sent someone to the town from the imperial capital, saying that they wanted to marry the outstanding descendants of the family, and I heard that they were still studying in the imperial capital academy. Aunt Hua said gossipingly.
"Imperial Military Academy, do you know? It is one of the top ten schools in our Great Wilderness, and there are all real pride of the sky, dragons among people, and people who want to become big people in the future. I heard Madame say that the people in that kind of academy are not as good as the ones who show off their legs in our town, and the people there are flying beings, and breaking a mountain is a matter of one punch. Aunt Hua's expression became extremely excited, as if she was about to marry herself.
"And the imperial capital, do you know Wulu? The imperial capital is the largest city in our Great Wilderness Country, and I heard that one acre of land there is enough to buy our entire town. The more Aunt Hua spoke, the more excited she became, and then her hands even began to gesture.
Hearing this, for some reason, an indescribable fear suddenly welled up in Wu Lu's heart.
I used to naively think that as long as I could see her every day, I was already very satisfied, and listening to her was the greatest happiness, but I don't know why I am suffering from gains and losses at this moment.
"No, it won't. The eldest lady doesn't know him, how can she marry him?"
"Young man, inexperienced! Aunt Hua is also a woman, how can a woman not want to find a good home for herself. The other party is a nobleman in the imperial capital, or a big man like the capable. Aunt Hua sneered.
Wu Lu was dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Actually, it's good to recognize the facts earlier! You're still young, and your days are still long. Aunt Hua said faintly again.
"I didn't." The heart was told by others, like a cat that was stepped on its tail, and Wu Lu immediately defended himself.
Aunt Hua glanced at him with disdain, and then said, "Look at your stupid look, as long as it's a person, you can see it." ”
Wu Lu was silent for a moment.
At this moment, the sunlight overhead seemed to pierce through the leaves of the big tree in the backyard like a sword.
At this moment, a lively sound came from the direction of the Bai family at the other end of the hotel.
"Listening to this voice, it is estimated that someone from the imperial capital has arrived, right?" Aunt Hua listened attentively and spoke.
"Hmm. Listening to this voice, it should be a distinguished guest, most likely those from the imperial capital's own family. Wu Lu replied absentmindedly.
"Wulu, aren't you going to see those people from the imperial capital?" Aunt Hua continued to nag while quickly cleaning the bowl.
Wu Lu was silent for a while, and then said lightly: "The people of this imperial capital also have two eyes and one mouth, and besides, they are the distinguished guests of Boss Bai, what does it have to do with me?" Nothing to see. ”
It's just that this flower aunt doesn't seem to want to let him go, and she is still chattering there non-stop.
In the end, Wu Wu Lu had no choice but to run out.
At this time, outside the main gate of the Bai family, a convoy slowly came. It was a convoy of dozens of men, with a large number of uniformly dressed guards with knives, and the carriages were extremely luxurious, but the most striking thing was that all the carriages were equipped with white horses.
Although he only glanced at it from a distance, those white horses were all incomparably superb, and Wu Wu Lu knew that these horses were all hard-to-find BMWs. is worthy of being a person from the imperial capital, and he is really wealthy.
Immediately after, four or five men dressed in splendid clothes came out of the carriage, all of their ages. One of them attracted all the attention of Wu Wulu, he was handsome, richly dressed, holding a folding fan, and he looked calm and relaxed, so handsome and chic. On top of that, he was the only young man among them.
The moment he saw him, Wu Lu couldn't help but be depressed, just the folding fan inlaid with precious gems in the young man's hand was an existence that Wu Lu couldn't afford to work in a small town all his life.
