Chapter 52: Mobilization and Migration
Wuqing was summoned to the palace, and as he expected, the date of the wedding was set to inform him. However, to his surprise, he did not see the emperor when he entered the palace this time, but the chief manager Wu received him.
"Originally, the emperor summoned you, but unfortunately there was an urgent military report from the frontier, and I couldn't delay it, so I could only entrust the old man to talk to Wuqing Xiaoyou," After several contacts, Mr. Wu's expression and tone were quite friendly, "Your marriage with the princess is scheduled for the sixth day of the next month, and the emperor and Prince Rong discussed that the specifications of the wedding should not be too high, so they will marry with the gift of the county lord, but the emperor issued a decree and gave the nine states of Yong, Huai, Zheng, Qin, Bo, Qiang, Cao, Xu, and Tao to the princess as a dowry. Old man, congratulations to Wuqing Xiaoyou first!" said Mr. Wu, who arched his hand.
Wuqing looked at the smile on Manager Wu's face for a while, this person has been in the inner courtyard of the deep palace for hundreds of years, and his heart is unpredictable, and he doesn't know whether he is really happy or sarcastic, so he can only retreat indiscriminately and quickly evacuate under the pretext of returning the salute.
Manager Wu didn't stop him, he personally sent Wuqing out of the palace, and the two of them didn't say anything along the way, but after arriving at the gate of the palace, Manager Wu said lightly to Wuqing: "Take good care of the princess." And he returned.

When Wuqing returned home, he found that Xiaoba Feiqiu had returned, Luo Ling was taunting them, and Xuanshi was having fun on the side, Wuqing looked at the two of them with a disgraced face, and couldn't help but laugh: "You are both famous teachers, and you fought into Jin Wuwei's dungeon on the first side, and this time you can drink alcohol into the cell, I really admire you." ”
Xiaoba was drunk yesterday, and was tied up and still in the cold dungeon all night, at this time he was a little sluggish, and said in a muffled voice: "We are okay, when we came out just now, Dou Duwei was being whipped there!"
Hearing this, Wuqing hurriedly asked, "Why are you still whipped?"
Feiqiu replied: "Ten lashes for drunkenness during the duty period, ten lashes for indulgence in the streets, and twenty lashes for the crime of knowing the law and breaking the law, a total of forty lashes. After saying this, he and Xiaoba suddenly glanced at each other, and they seemed to remember some bad memories, and they shivered together.
"What's wrong with you two?" Wuqing knew that Dou Sandao should be fine, and he didn't take it to heart, and he was a little curious to see the two of them like this.
Xiaoba waved his hand and said, "Nothing, nothing." ”
Luo Ling seized the opportunity and mocked: "They should have thought of the soul whip in the underworld!"
As soon as the three words of the soul whip came out, Xiaoba and Feiqiu shivered for a while, and Wu Qingqi said: "I knew that the two of you were whipped for trespassing on the underworld, but I didn't know that I could whip the two of you like this." ”
Xiaoba cried and said with a sad face: "That whip is designed to draw the soul without hurting the body, and if the whip goes down, it hurts to the soul......"
Feiqiu covered his face and stopped Xiaoba very painfully: "Okay, okay, don't say it, I'm a little uncomfortable." ”
This time, Xiaoba was annoyed, and said angrily to Feiqiu: "It's up to you! If you didn't say that you want to see what the Hades Palace looks like, how could we be whipped by that day?"
Feiqiu said disdainfully: "If it weren't for your nonsense that you are the head of the tiger, and you should be cousins of the bull head and horse face, which made those two angry, how could we suffer from the whipping?"
"Oh my God!" Luo Ling covered her stomach and laughed when she heard this, she was not present when they were tortured, so she only thought that they were whipped because they trespassed into the underworld, and she didn't want this chapter to be there.
Xiaoba heard Feiqiu tell this secret thing, and he also lost his temper, touched his huge tiger head, and muttered in a low voice: "I'm just talking nonsense to those little ghosts, who knows that the main owner is standing behind......"
Wuqing also lost his temper when he heard this, and said with a smile: "It's still Xiaoba, you are amazing, you have recognized your relatives in the underworld, it's okay, I'll tell you a happy thing, on the sixth day of the next month, I'm going to get married!"
I thought that these people would say hello to me, but I didn't expect the reaction of a few people to be shocking.
Xiaoba's eyes widened and he was puzzled: "How much delay will it be to marry a mother-in-law?"
Feiqiu was also deeply puzzled: "Brother Dao is a child of immortals, how can he stick to the world?"
Xuanshi sang a Buddha name: "Women are like tigers, is the eldest brother going to feed the tiger with his body?"
Only Luo Ling flashed her big eyes and looked at everyone with a smile and didn't speak.
The three of them said in three sentences that the first Buddha who realized Qingqi was born, and the second Buddha ascended to heaven, and he stood up directly and said angrily: "One by one, I won't even say the sentence "Daoxi", and when the time comes, people can not come, and the ceremony will be given to me!"

It is rumored that there are thirty-six sacred mountains in the depths of the great wilderness, seventy-two fierce mountains, and countless other mountain ranges, and each of the sacred mountains has an ancient fierce god or peerless demon entrenched. In fact, the world still misses an important terrain, they only know how to look up, but they don't know how to look down, but the existence in the depths of the great wilderness knows this rule deeply: if you can go up the mountain, don't go down to the pool......
A demon beast roared and knelt down four front legs by a deep pool with a radius of thousands of feet, this demon beast is more than two zhang long, high and high, with two wings on its back, electricity on its left wing, and fire on its right wing, there are three on the neck, the left one spews smoke, the right one spits fog, and the middle one keeps roaring in a low voice, if Wuqing is here, he will definitely scream, this is the demon beast named "Qi Kuo" who chased and killed him for two days and two nights!
After a while, the calm pool water in front of the broad began to become turbid, there was a huge whirlpool formed in the center of the pool, the three heads of the broad skull hung lower, the middle head no longer roared, if you look closely, the four hind legs supporting the body are trembling slightly.
In just a few moments, a huge black head that looked like a dragon and a dragon poked out of the whirlpool, followed by the second and third...... When the ninth head poked out of the deep pool, the heavens and the earth were silent, and everything was silent, as if the world was afraid to make a sound.
The last head poked out slowly stretched out towards the broad, which made the four hind legs of the wide tremble even more. But in an instant, the head shrank back again, and said, "Did you find the rabbit?"
The broad middle head let out a low roar twice, and then buried his head lower, directly against the ground.
The nine heads in the pool didn't seem to have any feelings about Qi Kuo's answer, and after a while, the nine heads slowly sank again, leaving only one sentence: "Then forget it, this rabbit can't find anyone if it wants to hide, and being tricked by it can be regarded as my Xiangliu's catastrophe......"
It wasn't until the nine heads completely sank into the deep pool and the pool became calm again that Qi Kuo raised his front legs tremblingly, and the three of them showed a look of relief in unison, and fled here without looking back.
............
At the edge of the Great Wilderness, in the Tongque Village, Yan Zhongxi stood in the center of the ancestral hall, and the courtyard of the house was full of people in the village.
"Fellow villagers, there is a big demon who has taken action and killed our hunting team, our clan elders have discussed with the Ninth Uncle Ancestor and decided to move out of the Great Wilderness and return to the Central Plains!"
This was the first time he had convened a meeting of the whole clan to talk about the migration in front of everyone, and although the clansmen below had gotten the news, they still exploded with a buzz at this moment. The young man with flesh and blood shouted, "Patriarch, won't they take revenge?"
"Revenge?" Yan Zhongxi looked at the young man with burning eyes, "I don't even know which big demon did the evil thing, how can this revenge be avenged?"
The young man was stared at by the patriarch, and he said no more, but on the other side, there was a human: "Then we should find out first! Even if we can't take revenge now, we have to let the clansmen know who the enemy is, so that they can have a thought." ”
Yan Zhongxi looked around at the noisy crowd around him, and felt a burst of irritability and disappointment in his heart, it seemed that he had indeed been trapped in this great wilderness for too long, and his vision and mind were trapped. When did the people of the dignified Great Wei royal family become so indecisive?
"Ladies and gentlemen!" he accentuated, "I'm not talking to you, I'm just informing you that this is the decision of the Elders' Council!
"Revenge? As the patriarch, why don't I want to take revenge? Don't forget, my own nephew Shitong is also in the hunting team!" Speaking of this, his eyes were a little red, "It's just that you have all forgotten one thing, this is the Great Wilderness! It is a peerless fierce land that can make immortals fall! Don't let this natal wooden tablet protect your lives and cover your eyes at the same time!" He held his natal wooden tablet in his hand and looked around, and his voice was already a low roar:" Don't think it's great that you can live in this great wilderness, without the blessing of your ancestors, take off the wooden sign and leave the village for a day to try!"
After saying this, he felt that the depressed depression in his heart had evacuated a lot, but those villagers looked at him with some consternation, they didn't expect that the patriarch who usually treats people calmly would also be angry.
Yan Zhongxi sighed and said: "We are the Yan clan that has been handed down since ancient times, and we are the imperial family of the Great Wei! After living in this great wilderness for several generations, what do you think about every day? I estimate that eighty percent of them think about how to hunt for meat, how to make their land more productive, and who to marry their children...... And these are the things that a royal family should think? No? The original intention of our family to move into the Great Wilderness was not to compromise with the rebel party and the puppet dynasty, but to take advantage of the hardships of the Great Wilderness to sharpen the whole family, so that one day we can return to the Central Plains and rebuild the Great Wei! And now...... Your edges and corners have been smoothed out! Your sharpness has been extinguished! Not to mention whether you still have the ambition to change the sun and the moon with the sky!"
The patriarch's words made the whole clan silent, yes, everyone knows their identity and understands their mission, but in reality, who can fight for this mission?
Yan Zhongxi saw that his words had some effect, and hit the railway while it was hot: "Now I announce the resolution of the clan elders' association, give each family three days to clean up, and after three days, the family will be relocated!"
The patriarch spoke, and the final word was made!
