Chapter 463: Lost Contact (1st Update)
"Master, then the emperor won't be angry and behead us with the sword of the Son of Heaven, right?"
"No, it won't. β
"Really?" Yuan Ziyan showed a frightened look: "What if we are scatteredββ!?"
Her coquettish voice echoed in her own mind, and she felt numb when she heard it, hoping that Li Chengkong would be soft-hearted.
Li Chengkong sat on the jasper lotus flower, and said expressionlessly: "You are a small character, how can you use the Son of Heaven Sword? His Son of Heaven Sword is reserved for Sect Master Ji, and it is not your turn yet!"
"Master, you won't let us consume the Emperor's Son of Heaven Sword in order to save Sect Master Ji, right?"
"Hugh is verbose!" Li Chengkong's face sank: "Do it!"
"Master, you can't ignore the old people when you have a new person, Sect Master Ji is not beautiful, he won't serve you, and he won't listen to you......"
"If you are verbose, you old man will be replaced!"
"Yes......" Yuan Ziyan showed a look of resentment.
Li Chengkong snorted: "Look at your greed for life and fear of death! Don't worry, even if you are cut by the sword of the Son of Heaven, your soul will not be dispersed, and you will be resurrected after a hundred years, provided that I have to live for a hundred years." β
"Yes, I'm greedy for life and afraid of death!" Yuan Ziyan's resentment turned into a coquettish smile.
But he pouted secretly in his heart.
I didn't learn it from you, who is greedy for life and afraid of death?
"Hmmββ?" Li Chengkong frowned at her.
I didn't see what she was thinking, but I faintly felt that she was slandering.
Yuan Ziyan hurriedly smiled: "Don't worry, master, we will definitely restrain the emperor and don't let him mess around!"
Li Chengkong said again: "Be optimistic about Xu Zhiyi, don't let her do stupid things!"
"Yes. Yuan Ziyan replied in a coquettish voice.
Li Chengkong slowly dissipated, but the jasper lotus flower was still there, quietly floating on the sea of spirit, like a small boat.
Li Chengkong opened his eyes and nodded with satisfaction, it would be good to have more helpers, and he would be completely at ease at this time.
There are only a few days left before the succession ceremony, and at this time, there must be no mistakes, especially to prevent Dugu Qian's move.
He has already calculated all kinds of possibilities, the biggest possibility is that Dugu Qian took the lead and led people into the main altar, making Ji Meng's smoke and soul scatter.
Originally, no outsider should know about the main altar, and it was the most mysterious, but now that there is a traitor, and maybe even one of the four Dharma kings, it is different.
Thinking of this, a jasper lotus floated out of his eyebrows, and he took a step forward to merge with the jasper lotus, and it had disappeared.
The next moment appeared at the main altar.
He shook his head, if the Jade Lotus could not only take him back to the main altar, but also return to the Blue Lotus Wonderland.
It's a pity that the Jasper Lotus can only allow herself to shuttle between the Wonderland and her original position, moving the void.
The air is fresh, the mountains are undulating, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.
It's a better world.
Every cell of Li Chengkong became active, which was caused by the proximity to the green lotus, and the body turned into a lotus, which was greatly affected by the green lotus.
He came to Qinglian Palace, his brows furrowed.
I didn't see Ji Mengyan.
Busy concentrating, she couldn't sense Ji Mengyan's existence, she didn't seem to be in the main altar anymore.
Is it out of the main altar?
Li Chengkong's face changed slightly.
Dugu Qian is eyeing her, once she is out of the main altar, she will never be let go!
He returned mentally and sensed the two elders of Qiankun through the Soul Suppression Tablet, knowing that the Sword of the Son of Heaven was still there, and he did not leave.
It made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Where did Ji Mengyan go?
He returned to his spirit again, concentrating on the first lotus flower, the root lotus flower of the Blue Lotus Sutra.
It can be sensed, it is empty and white, and the existence of Ji Mengyan cannot be sensed at all, and it is indeed not within the scope of the main altar.
He disappeared from Qinglian Palace in a flash, returned to the small pavilion in the back garden of Princess Qingming's mansion, and once again concentrated on it, but still couldn't sense Ji Mengyan's existence.
As if she did not exist in this heaven and earth.
How is this possible?
The Qinglian Resident World Sutra cultivator has his own sense, but he can't sense her, could it be that he has already fought with Dugu Qian and was killed by Dugu Qian?
The Sect Master's Succession Ceremony won't be destroyed, right?
He frowned in thought.
The footsteps sounded, and Dugu Shuming was dressed in white like snow, floating lightly, bringing a faint fragrance: "The imperial court has come to the will, let King Xian return to Beijing." β
Li Chengkong took a deep breath and put down Ji Mengyan's matter first.
Maybe she's sneaking somewhere to practice.
Since she can avoid herself and Dugu Qian, she should not trust anyone now, even herself.
She really shouldn't trust anyone now in order to truly protect herself.
Dugu Shuming sat down opposite him, frowned, and said, "Is this the imperial court going to do it?"
Li Chengkong groaned.
"Nine times out of ten, it's the abandonment of the South. Dugu Shuming shook his head lightly: "Thousands of holes, dilapidated, the southern border is more barren than imagined, maybe I feel that I have gotten rid of big trouble." β
She's been managing the South, and what she's learned is worse than she thought it might be, and it's in ruins.
The imperial court is really a good means.
This is to throw the pot at them, and once they can make the south prosperous, they will take it over.
Anyway, Li Chengkong, the king of Zhennan, and himself, the princess of Qingming, are not from Dayong, they are both outsiders, and no one will object to moving the two of them away when the time comes.
If you fail to cure the southern border, there will be an excuse to punish the crime.
A holy decree can be taken lightly, and when the two of them do not obey the order, I am afraid that the soldiers will be on the way.
So the first thing to do is to train elite soldiers in order to fight against the imperial court.
But no matter how strong the soldiers are, the number is limited, and the sparse population in the south is a hard wound, an irreparable wound.
Will it really be able to resist the army of the imperial court at that time?
Li Chengkong said: "Those mines have been mined?"
"The mines have already started to be released, they are all rich ores, and now we have to find a way to transport them out. β
"That's good,...... Go with King Xian. Li Chengkong shook his head and said, "It's also a trouble to stay here." β
"That's all there is to it. Dugu Shuming nodded lightly: "By the way, there has been progress on Dayue's side, and a few maritime merchants have been contacted." β
Li Chengkong smiled.
"We have a ship, we can directly transport ore over, and then purchase things back, in fact, it is more stable on the side of Dayun. β
She opened up a relationship between the two seaside docks in Otsuki, and could establish a trade, selling ore or cloth and purchasing others.
However, Dayue is strict with maritime trade, and it is far from being compared with the free entry and exit of Da Yun, and Dugu Gale will definitely make trouble when he receives the news.
Dayun is confident in his sea power, so the port is extremely free, and he doesn't ask about the origin of the ship, just entering and leaving to collect taxes.
Its trade environment is far from being comparable to that of Dayue Dayong.
"You still have to build a ship quickly. Li Chengkong said: "I'm afraid we don't have enough time." β
"If it doesn't work, just buy a boat. Dugu Shuming said lightly: "Isn't it good to be good friends with the Ninth Princess, it should be no problem to buy a few boats." β
β...... It's good. Li Chengkong nodded slowly.
He was sure to buy a few boats with Song Yuzheng, there was no shortage of boats in Dayun, others didn't dare to sell the boat to himself, but Song Yuzheng dared.
"The last time I left those ten people, there weren't any moths, right?"
The last batch of pirates seemed to have been killed cleanly, but in fact, there were still ten left.
These ten are considered good people, so they stayed to build the navy.
When a martial arts master goes to the sea, if he doesn't have enough experience, he doesn't know how to die.
These ten people have enough experience on the water to avoid many detours.
"Honestly, they're scared. Dugu Shuming shook his head and said, "And it also gave them great hope." β
"You still have to keep an eye on it, people's hearts are unpredictable. β
"It's nature. β
Footsteps sounded, and Xiao Meiying came lightly: "Princess, the angel is urging to leave as soon as possible." β
"Ten days later, we will leave. Li Chengkong said: "I will personally escort it." β
He is now lacking in skills, Yuan Ziyan and the others have all been instructed to go out, and there is no one around him to use.
After the succession ceremony, you can be idle.
"Lord Wang, I'm afraid they won't agree......" Xiao Meiying shook her head lightly: "I see that Princess Mei can't wait to leave, and the three Qincha also want to leave." β
