【1052】Armament (I)

The busy Yuque City is still so lively at night. In the streets and alleys, there are many bright lights, like daylight.

In the night markets of several cities, the sound of selling and bargaining, fist slashing and shouting resounded in the night sky.

In the night, those flying troops and air cavalry hovering over Yuque City monitored the sky over the entire city. It also overlooks the streets of the town below, and together with the patrolling ghosts and ghosts on the ground, they maintain the law and order of the entire city.

Therefore, the capital of the Nine Shadows Kingdom dares to have no curfew at night, and the city gate is also open, but it is just a card on the city gate. Business travelers can go to the city to do business anytime and anywhere, after passing the check of the key card.

A few nightingales were tired of flying in the air, so they fell down and landed on the jade tree under the rockery in the pavilion, looking left and right curiously at everything around them.

Fox Shidou, who was standing straight in the room, moved his ears slightly, heard the sound of the nightingale falling, and smelled the ghostly aura emanating from the nightingale, so he didn't care.

After pondering for a while, the Qingqiu Fox King, who was sitting on the couch in the room, no longer had any doubts about Changqin, so he said to Hu Lan: "In this case, on the day of this king's return, you and Hu Qingyun will go together and return with me." It just so happens that my mother's health has not been very good recently, and I think about you every day, so you should go back to see her old man. ”。

Since Changqin is so credible, the Qingqiu Fox King plans to hand over all the information of the Nine Shadows Kingdom to Changqin to transmit. His brother Hu Lan has no need to stay in the Nine Shadows Country anymore.

Moreover, this Jade Que City belongs to the Nine Shadows Country, and it is not a safe place for Hu Lan, the Hades brother of the Qingqiu Fox Country, and under the calm, there must be a dark tide.

The Qingqiu Fox King decided not to let his brother take any more risks.

As for the restoration of Changqin, these things have nothing to do with the Qingqiu Fox King.

He just wanted to use this to make Changqin willingly work for him and the Fox Kingdom, and to make the Nine Shadows civil unrest, whether it succeeded or not, the Qingqiu Fox King didn't care.

Hu Lan naturally figured it out a little, and knew the purpose of his brother Qingqiu Fox King's move, but he didn't break it, but asked eagerly: "Brother Wang, what's wrong with my mother lately?"

Hu Lan just wants to be in front of his brother Wang, he just wants to be a filial son, even if he pretends to be a dutiful son, he has to pretend that he has no desire for power, and he has no doubts about the orders of the Qingqiu Fox King.

Otherwise, Hu Lan would not have lived to this day, let alone be entrusted with a heavy task and sent to the Nine Shadows Kingdom as an envoy.

Now Hu Lan immediately looked anxious on his face, and his eyes were full of anxiety. Even the Qingqiu Fox King believed that his younger brother was really worried about his old mother, and he was a wholehearted filial son.

"I always say that I have a headache, but if I ask the ghost doctor to see it, it's all fine. Once you have a headache and dizziness, I will always talk about you. The Qingqiu Fox King picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea, and suddenly there was a sweet taste between his teeth and tongue.

The Nine Shadows Kingdom gave him, a distinguished guest who came from afar, and prepared all the best tea.

Naturally, it doesn't get sluggish, and it tastes great.

With just a sip of tea, the Qingqiu Fox King already liked the taste.

"I'm in the Nine Shadows Country, but I know a few ghost doctors with great medical skills. At this time, Hu Lan said again: "Brother Wang, look, when we return to China, do we bring these ghost doctors with us, so that we can see A-Niang's illness." ”。

"When my mother sees you, this disease can be improved, it's not a disease that can be cured by the ghost doctors' medical skills, it's just that I miss you and miss you. The Qingqiu Fox King, who put down the teacup, refused without thinking: "If you go back, it is the best medicine to treat your mother." ”。

The Qingqiu Fox King must take Hu Lan away, after all, Hu Lan already has a deep understanding of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and he needs such an advisor who is familiar with many things in the Nine Shadows Kingdom to stay by his side.

Hu Lan didn't say anything anymore, and responded happily.

Although he is reluctant to give up the prosperity of this place in the Nine Hidden Kingdom, Hu Lan is as ambitious as the Qingqiu Fox King, and he would rather not want this kind of prosperity that is not his own, but also return to the Qingqiu Fox Country with Brother Wang to create prosperity on the other side.

The two ghosts chatted a little more, and after three watches, Hu Lan got up to say goodbye, left the post house, and went straight back to his mansion.

After Hu Lan left, the Qingqiu Fox King did not rest. He is still not haphazard, just because of the freshness in front of him.

What he saw today, the grandeur and domineering of the Yuque Palace, and the prosperity and liveliness of the Yuque City, all dazzled him.

The wide streets, the lively and dazzling market squares, the business travelers who come and go, and those deep mansions, buildings and street pavilions, lead the river into the city and form rivers and canals all over the city, such a prosperous scene requires strong national and financial resources to create.

Not only that, the garrison in the city was well-equipped, which also made the Qingqiu Fox King look greedy.

These ancient ghost kingdoms of the Netherworld are still fighting with old-fashioned firearms and swords and guns, but the Nine Shadows Kingdom is already equipped with new-style firearms.

They are still relying on the magic of gods and ghosts to strengthen their army, and the Nine Shadows Kingdom has already made firearms have the power of magic and ghosts.

He Qingqiu Fox King had only been in Yuque City for a day, and he had already seen how powerful this nascent ghost country was.

This did not scare the Qingqiu Fox King, in addition to making him have to look up at the behemoth of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, it also aroused his fighting spirit and competitiveness.

In the heart of the Qingqiu Fox King, it has been determined that as long as he can defeat the behemoth of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom will be able to become famous and famous all over the world.

Just like back then, Xiao Shizhu's southern and northern wars were also unknown. Once defeated the army of the Northern Yin Dynasty on Shuoyue Island, it was immediately known to the world.

"Uncle Shidou. The Qingqiu Fox King leaned over, hovered his hands on the ground in front of him, the upper half of the bronze brazier, baked his palms and the back of his hands, and said slowly, "What does this Nine Shadows Kingdom give you a feeling?"

The heat rising from the brazier smoked the palms and backs of the Qingqiu Fox King's hands warm.

"Prosperous, powerful. Fox Shidou, who was still waiting in the house, answered the question of the Qingqiu Fox King concisely and clearly.

"Yes, the capital city alone is not enough to be staggering and amazing. The Qingqiu Fox King retracted his hand and leaned on the table on the couch, and sighed: "But along the way, the towns we see are so lively and prosperous. This may be inseparable from those fertile fields outside the city, even hundreds or even thousands of miles of cultivated land. ”。

The farming area of the Nine Shadows Kingdom is large enough to deal with any wars and natural disasters, all of which are in the eyes of the Qingqiu Fox King.

It is precisely because of this foundation that the Nine Shadows Kingdom is so powerful.

"Lao Chen has something that he thinks is strange, isn't there a ghost who escaped from the field in this Nine Secluded Country?" Referring to this, Fox Shidou couldn't help but be a little confused.

Since ancient times, in various ghost countries, even under the rule of the Northern Yin Dynasty, there will be farmers who flee their hometowns and waste their fields because of poor harvests or lazy eating.

Although all countries have severely punished the land escapees, they have not been able to completely eliminate the land defectors.

This makes it impossible to see the cultivated fields of various ghost countries everywhere. Except for the Nine Shadows Country, if there are no villages, it is difficult to see cultivated fields. Even a lot of land is deserted, and most of them are uncultivated.

Unlike the Nine Shadows, villages and towns are connected to each other, such as farmland, orchards, and workshops.

All this made Fox Shidou suspect that there were no ghosts who fled from the fields in the Nine Hidden Countries.

"Maybe yes, I'll ask Xiao Shizhu about this matter tomorrow, maybe I will know everything. The Qingqiu Fox King pointed to the stool not far away and motioned for the fox Shidou to sit down and speak.

Fox Shidou bowed, thanked him, and walked to the stool and sat down.

"Since the Nine Shadows Kingdom is so powerful and prosperous, do you think that before you leave, let the prince do it secretly?"

The fox Shidou, who was holding his long beard, squinted his eyes, and said thoughtfully: "Before I came, the old minister was also worried about this matter. But after that, Lao Chen is not worried. The king looked at the prosperity outside the courtyard, drunk and golden. It is this kind of prosperity and drunkenness that gives Xiao Shizhu a kind of comfort. ”。

Fox Shidou spoke very slowly, and his voice was very soft, but the Qingqiu Fox King could hear it clearly.

"Comfort, it will make the King of the Nine Shadows sluggish, he is afraid that he will never think that the King will let the prince secretly instigate other ghost countries in Dongyingzhou to send troops together to attack and occupy the land of the Nine Shadows Kingdom in Dongyingzhou. Fox Shidou's face was calm, and his tone was also very calm: "Those ghost countries have acted as the first birds of our country, and we are all watching the fire from the other side. This kind of thing, Xiao Shizhu in the past may not be unexpected, but Xiao Shizhu today may not be imaginable. It's too comfortable, it's not good. Prosperity is also a kind of decline and decline. Just as on a cloudy day, noon is at its highest, and after it is over, all that remains is sunset and desolation. ”。

Fox Shidou's words made it clear that prosperity must decline, so that the Qingqiu Fox King firmly believed that he could fight the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and he was quite proud in his heart.

It's just that there is still a calm on this face.

In terms of camouflage emotions, Qingqiu Fox King and Xiao Shizhu are really comparable.

Fox Shidou glanced at it, and only saw the calmness of the Qingqiu Fox King.

Fox Shidou paused and continued: "Looking at him today, dancing with the dancing girl, drinking wine with the musician, and drinking like his life, it really doesn't look like he is pretending; The King of the Nine Shadows, it's time for him to enjoy his comfort. ”。

The Qingqiu Fox King was very patient and listened without saying a word.

"Since he enjoys comfort so much, even if the battle report of Dongyingzhou comes, Xiao Shizhu, the king of the Nine Shadows, will not suspect us, but the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom in the East Yingzhou will definitely fight with those ghost country alliances, and they will already lose both. Speaking of this, a little smug appeared in Fox Shidou's eyes.

In the past, I heard that Xiao Shizhu was the ghost talent who could calculate with Emperor Xudu, but today, the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom easily calculated the Nine Shadows Kingdom.

At this point, pay attention to make Fox Shidou proud and proud.

It's just that soon, a trace of regret flashed in Fox Shidou's eyes, and then he regained his calm.

He still feels pity for Xiao Shizhu.

In Fox Shidou's opinion, Xiao Shizhu may obviously be the Holy Lord Mingjun, but this comfort has already made the other party fall, and it is precisely because of this that Fox Shidou feels sorry.

However, after all, the fox ten buckets are the fox ten buckets of the Qingqiu Fox Country, not the Nine Shadows Country, so there is nothing else except regret.

If he is the fox and ten buckets of the Nine Shadows Country, he will definitely speak out and admonish, and he will also change Xiao Shizhu's mistakes, and he can make amends.

"Well, this king also thinks so, the prosperity and decline of the Nine Shadows Kingdom have appeared, and it is the time for us to show our ambitions, dominate Dongyingzhou, and shock the six seas. The Qingqiu Fox King straightened up, took out a rolled-up drawing from his arms, and handed it to Fox Shidou: "This is what Changqin gave me privately in the car when he left the palace tonight, saying that it was the Dongyingzhou defense map." I've already seen it, it's indeed a map of all parts of Dongying Continent, and it also clearly marks the deployment of the Nine Shadows Kingdom in various parts of Dongying Continent. ”。

Fox Shidou got up, walked to the Qingqiu Fox King to take the drawings, and unfolded it to take a look, the mountains and rivers on it, and the annotated arming situation were presented in front of his eyes.

"Uncle Shidou, you immediately choose a few credible people, take this technique away, and return to the country to hand it over to the prince yourself. The Qingqiu Fox King, who paused, then said: "Let the prince immediately prepare for war according to the mark on the map." ”。

The Qingqiu Fox King has already made up his mind that he must fight a war with the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and fight the land of Dongying Continent alone for himself.

It is also to let his great name and the prestige of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom resound in the Netherworld and the universe.

However, a letter should be affixed to the diagram to cover the contents of the diagram. The letter was addressed to the crown prince, informing him that Gu had arrived safely in the Nine Shadows Kingdom. Then, when the fox ten buckets rolled up the drawings in response, the Qingqiu Fox King hurriedly advised: "Tell the ghost who sent the drawings that if you encounter the inspection of the Nine Shadows Kingdom on the road, say that you sent a letter to me to send a letter to my family." ”。

"No. Fox Shidou held the drawings in his hand and responded in the bows.
