Chapter 111: The Secret Map
After Zhang Yu returned to Zhouzhong, he immediately took the leaders of the various factions and went straight to Hongshan and Miguang.
All of them were monks who had read the fourth chapter, so on this way, the light came through the sky, and the momentum was majestic, like a stream of fire flying into the sky, and many roving creatures in the continent avoided it after they noticed it, and those who saw this scene sent messages to the state and county and even the two prefectures.
Hongshan and Miguang now have no faction leaders, so it is naturally impossible to resist this force, but in one day, Zhang Yu took down these two factions, and all the disciples in the faction were merged into Xuanfu.
Although Zhong Lie and Mei Yizhi have not yet handed over the seal and secret method, this is just a trivial matter.
With the annexation of these last two factions, all the factions outside the territory have been merged into the Xuanfu, and the Qingyang Xuanfu is also in a substantive sense to reunite the forces that have been scattered outside for more than 50 years.
However, Zhang Yu also knew that such a result would definitely be something that some people did not want to see, and even the two prefectures, which had been getting along well, were afraid that their attitude towards them would change.
After all, in terms of etiquette, the Xuanfu is higher than the two mansions.
In the past, the Xuanfu only had such a status, but it couldn't interfere in the affairs of the continent at all, but now, the Xuanfu not only has the name, but also has the strength to intervene in these.
He knew that this was inevitable, after all, no one wanted another person on his head to press him, and the fragmented appearance of Xuanfu before was exactly what most people wanted to see.
But it doesn't matter, he believes that these people will adapt quickly.
After taking care of the affairs of the two factions and the affairs of the leaders of each faction, he returned to the residence of the school palace, where there were still many letters sent from various states waiting for his approval.
In addition, because of the threat of the Frost Continent and some other special reasons, the stations of the foreign factions could not be abandoned, so this time when he came back, he still left two elders of the Wanming Dao and the Chengchang faction to take care of the rear there.
The disciples there also need to take turns to arrange for them to come back and make a register, these things are definitely not something that can be completed in ten days and a half months, and now it is approaching the end of the year, so they can only be delayed after the year.
Zhang Yu's first Chinese New Year's Eve after returning to the Tianxia mainland was spent in the Kaiyang Academy Palace, although most of the teachers and students in the Academy Palace went back for the New Year, but those creators all took the Academy Palace as their home, and they hung joint lanterns in the Palace of Learning, and pasted red paper clippings full of joy everywhere, so it didn't look deserted.
He stood in front of the glazed wall of the golden platform, watching the fireworks flickering outside, while Miao Danjun spun around under his feet, and from time to time he would turn into dozens of himself, chasing and slapping each other.
Qing Xi walked in from outside at this time, saluted with great blessings, and said, "Sir, the New Year's banquet is ready." ”
Zhang Yu nodded and greeted Miao Danjun, and the little ocelot immediately followed, following him downstairs.
After Chinese New Year's Eve, he successively received many people who came to pay their respects to the New Year, and on the sixth day of the first year, he had time to go to Xuanfu.
Yun Chen also came back a year ago, although he was in the middle of the New Year's Festival, but he was still dealing with affairs, for Zhenxiu, a retreat is usually several years or even more than ten years, so he doesn't pay much attention to the New Year's Festival.
When he saw Zhang Yu coming, he immediately invited him into the palace, and said: "Xuanzheng came just in time, there is something to inform Xuanzheng, after the New Year, the two governments sent a letter, saying that the war in the north is tight, and there are some difficulties in the allocation and turnover of materials, so the things promised to be allocated to us may have to be reduced." ”
As soon as Zhang Yu heard this, he understood that this should be because some people in the two mansions saw that the strength of the Xuanfu had risen sharply this time, so they began to look for trouble in some places.
He was sure that if this matter was taken into account, it would only be involved back and forth, and nothing would come of it.
He said: "In the previous war, we harvested a lot of loot, and we should be able to send it to the two prefectures." ”
Yun Chen understood what he meant, and said, "Okay, I'll negotiate this matter with the two governments." ”
Zhang Yu asked at this time: "Yun Daoyou, Zhong Lie, and Mei Yizhi, do you have any explanation?"
Yun Chen shook his head and said: "These two people, like that Yu Jian, have made an oath in their hearts, so they haven't asked anything useful, but they just know that the true cultivator who walked with them is called Zhu Li, and he is indeed a monk of the Spiritual Mystery Realm." ”
Zhang Yu thought about it for a while, and it could be seen from Zhong Lie's words that there was someone behind it, although he didn't know the specific identity of this person now, but he could drive true cultivation, and he could also make the two Xuan Cultivation sect masters swear for it, which was actually a relatively obvious clue.
However, at this time, the talents of the Frost Continent need to be solved in the immediate future, not to mention that the Frost Continent may still find something related to the domain, and the rest can be put aside for the time being.
After discussing with Yun Chen for a few more things, he was going to go to Zhu Xuanshou for another trip, but Yun Chenyan said: "The teacher is in retreat these days, but he will be out of the customs at the end of the month, and the teacher also said that some words are about to be said to Xuan Zhengyan, and Xuan Zhengke will come again at that time." ”
Seeing this, Zhang Yu said goodbye to Yun Chen, left the Xuanfu, he did not go back to the school palace, but went to the boundary gap, and after a few days of drinking and feasting with Fan Lan, Qi Wu and a group of disciples from Dongting, he took some things from Wu Zena, and after coming out, he came to the Fangtai Dao station.
The location of this Dao sect is very important, if the people of Shuangzhou want to use a large number of troops to raid Qingyang, then this place must be taken, so Wan Ming Dao and Cao Fangding and others are now arranged here to take care of them.
Wan Ming Dao people saw him coming, and after seeing the ceremony, they said: "Xuan Zheng came just in time, and there is something to report to Xuan Zheng." ”
He gave an order, and immediately a disciple came up with a long jade box, he pointed and said: "This is someone sent to the sect on the first day of the new year, and the attached letter is clearly handed over to Xuanzheng, it seems that it is an important thing, and we did not dare to open it without authorization." ”
Zhang Yu felt that there was nothing wrong with this thing, so he took it and said, "But who sent this thing?"
Wan Mingdao said: "It's still difficult to know, this jade box was found outside the residence by a disciple who went out to inspect. ”
Zhang Yu thought for a while, then came out of the lobby with the jade box, came to the residence arranged for him by the station, put the long box on the desk, flicked his sleeves, and put the lid on the box, but a scroll of drawings was revealed inside.
As soon as his eyes fell, the scroll flew away on its own, and the backstage slowly opened, revealing a cloud of colorful patterns, which at first glance looked like it was confused after knocking over the colored materials.
This pattern is very chaotic, and you can't see anything at all, but if you look at it in depth, you can find that some of the graphics have an extremely weak response to the heartlight, which should be painted with special colored materials.
Zhang Yu stretched out his hand and pressed it on top of it, and in an instant, these figures turned into thin gold threads one by one, separated from the picture, and then joined and put together in the hall, and then presented in front of him, but it was a picture that was not too detailed.
He looked at the large picture hanging in the air outlined with gold threads, and it was not difficult to distinguish that there were two places drawn on it, just for the convenience of drawing, so they were pressed against each other.
Judging from the topographical outline, it is somewhat similar to the original lost Mizhou and Duzhou.
He waved his sleeves and took two steps forward, then took a closer look, and thought for a moment, if he didn't guess wrong, this was probably a picture of the frost continent!
His eyes moved slightly, Frost Island was the target he was going to target next, assuming that this map was true, then it would be convenient for him to act.
Before he had thought about how to deal with Shuangzhou, this place could never be equated with the ordinary prefectures and counties in Qingyang, before losing contact with Qingyang, Duzhou and Mizhou were directly under the jurisdiction of Yujing, in addition to the population, in fact, all aspects were not much worse than Qingyang Shangzhou, and in some places even because they could directly get the support of Yujing, they may be better than Qingyang.
And the current Frost Continent is very likely to be involved with some forces in the continent, and the hidden power cannot be underestimated.
This is also the reason why the two prefectures' request to the Xuan Mansion is only to contain the Frost Continent, not to exterminate it, because the two prefectures also know that it is impossible to do this.
In fact, although the Frost Continent is huge, it is not impossible to deal with.
For example, he can directly lead the cultivators to carry out a surprise attack with Xuan soldiers or magic weapons.
With such a huge area and military strength in Qingyang Upper Continent, he was still afraid that a small group of foreign troops would use such tactics against him, let alone Frost Continent, so even if he couldn't destroy this place, he could definitely cause great damage to it.
Of course, there are more and more complicated things to consider in addition to these, but the premise of all this is that you need to find the location of the Frost Continent first.
And this map shows him the way, but its authenticity is still to be determined.
If this picture is true, then the person who sent this map must know Shuangzhou very well, this person is undoubtedly more valuable than this picture, if he can find this person, then he believes that the current problem can be solved at least half.
So where to find this person?
This person had put things in front of the station before, obviously not wanting to reveal his identity.
But this man actually left a clue.
Zhang Yu turned back to the desk, his eyes stared at the colorful picture, the light in his eyes flickered, but in a moment, a hand appeared in his gaze, just like light and shadow smoke, but as these smoke spread outward, and gradually condensed a person's erratic figure.
As you can roughly tell, this is a monk of medium stature.
He thought about it for a while, and immediately took a pen from the case, and then brushed a few strokes, and sketched it, and it can be seen that although this person has no facial features, he shows a unique charm of behavior.
He gave an order to the outside world, and asked people to go and find Wan Mingdao and Cao Fangding, and after both of them arrived, he pointed to the picture and said, "Do you know this person?"
