Next Chapter

Waxers, hunters, Yantian hunted birds and beasts to worship their ancestors.

The wax moon is the last month of the year, and it is also a node of the alternation of the old and the new, and hunting and worshipping ancestors is a major event in this season, especially for the royal family, and it involves the luck of the country in the upcoming new year.

This year is a special year, Bei, Zhao, Shu, Chu, Yan, Qi, Hu, Chen, Wu nine kingdoms gathered, put down each other's mustard, decided to hunt together in the largest hunting ground on the mainland, Liaoqi hunting grounds.

The Liaoqi Hunting Ground is located on the border of Chen and Wu, part of it is located in the Liaocheng of the Chen State, and some of it is located in the Qicheng of the Wu State, so it is named the Liaoqi Hunting Ground.

The hunting grounds are rich in natural resources, and all kinds of rare birds and beasts on the continent can be found in it, and even some rare birds that have been confirmed to be extinct can be found occasionally, and there is also a chance to hunt mythical alien species, which are said to be the spirit of the gods and goddesses who have sprinkled the world.

The joint hunt is set on the eighth day of the lunar month, which is a good day to worship ancestors and gods and pray for a good year and auspiciousness.

But this time, it seems that it is not the ancestors and gods who are sacrificed, but the so-called peace.

Because of the joint hunting, Liaocheng and Qicheng were already under martial law in the middle of the year, and most of the locals left to join distant relatives in the middle of the year, because they really couldn't stand the militarized management.

But there are also many people who stayed, just to see the demeanor of the kings of the nine kingdoms, you must know that this is the only chance to see the nine supreme rulers who rule this continent at one time! How can the kings of the nine kingdoms gather together in normal times, and it is already a great event to be able to have four of them gather together and appear at the same time.

In this regard, people also speculated, and had a premonition that something big would happen, but the secrecy measures on the part of the Nine Royal Families were very good, and no one knew what would happen.

It is rumored that King Qin discovered the secret of becoming an immortal, and this time he wanted to share the secret of becoming an immortal with the other kings of the eight kingdoms, and ascended together on the eighth day of the lunar month.

It is also rumored that there will be a mythical Rui beast in the Liaoqi hunting grounds, and the kings of the Nine Kingdoms are ready to join forces to capture the Rui beast.

There are also people who say that there is a peerless beauty in the Liaoqi hunting ground, which is transformed by a goblin, and the kings of the nine kingdoms are all confused, and this time they are here to search for the peerless beauty.

In short, all kinds of speculation and gossip are flying all over the world, but none of them have been proven to be correct and reliable, so the matter of the joint hunt of the nine countries has become more and more mysterious.

Many people from other regions specially rushed to Liaocheng and Qicheng to join in the fun, so although a large number of locals left, more floating people from other places poured in, and Liaocheng and Qicheng became more lively than before, and for a time became a place of meeting on the mainland.

Liaocheng's one-legged post station is the largest post station, about three kilometers away from the center of Liaocheng City, because a one-legged soldier passed on a battle report information that subverted the results of the battle and got its name, now this one-legged soldier has become the owner of this post station, with the subsidence of the war, there is more commercial atmosphere here, from the post station to the post house, there are many travelers.

"I really can't stand it, although I am willing to suffer from the militarized management in order to see the demeanor of the kings of the nine countries, but it is too torturous, I have been in the army before, and I am not so strict in the army!

At this time, in the post house, a lot of people gathered, gathered together to chat, most of them came out of the center of Liaocheng City, and they were depressed by the militarized management, so they came out to breathe and chat.

"Needless to say, when the curfew was about to be held, I fell off my heel, squatted down to get my shoes off, and was almost caught and beaten up!" another person complained.

"It's not to blame them, tomorrow is Laba, tonight the kings of the nine kingdoms will arrive one after another, Hu, Zhao, Shu and our King Chen An will all settle in Liaocheng for one night, so they can't help but be vigilant." "Well-informed people already know which kings will settle in Liaocheng.

"Did the kings of Chu, Yan, Qi, Bei, and Wu all settle in Qicheng?" someone asked.

"Of course, after all, the five countries are relatively close, and it is the most convenient to settle in Qicheng. The well-informed man replied.

But in fact, Qi and Bei are far away from Wu, and Chen is separated by it, but the relationship between these two countries and Wu is better.

"Wouldn't there be no chance to meet the kings of the nine kingdoms at the same time?" someone sighed regretfully.

"Before the hunt begins tomorrow morning, the kings of the nine kingdoms will gather briefly at the entrance of the Liaoqi hunting grounds, and at that time they will receive the worship of the people. Hey, I think it's probably deliberately arranged, it looks like it's catering to the demands of our people, but it's not really a show of prestige. The well-informed man said.

"Be careful!" Someone hurriedly covered the well-informed man's mouth with his hand, which was obviously disrespectful to the kings of the Nine Kingdoms.

"Hmm...... What is that!" The well-informed man cried out a few times as he covered his mouth, his eyes widened instantly, and he pulled away the hand that was covering his mouth, pointing into the distance and shouting.

Everyone looked in the direction pointed by the well-informed man's hand, and saw smoke and dust in the distance, accompanied by a rumbling sound, it was the sound of iron hooves stomping on the ground!

"An army! How could there be an army galloping at this time, could it be that the king of which country arrived first?" someone wondered.

"No way! The kings will arrive in the evening! And if it is to escort the king, it is impossible to gallop!" the well-informed man vetoed at once.

"That flag ......" Someone pointed to a large flag in the smoke and dust, speechless in surprise.

"That's the banner of the Liu family! It's the iron horse of the Liu family of my Chen country!" As the distance got closer, someone finally saw the words on the banner clearly, and it was the word "Liu".

"It's the Flying Dragon Battalion! It must be the Flying Dragon General Liu Feilong of the Flying Dragon Battalion!" someone shouted excitedly, and there was a soaring green dragon on the big banner.

In the era of confrontation between the nine kingdoms and the division of various forces, the dragon was not the exclusive symbol of the royal family.

"The Flying Dragon Battalion is the most brave and skilled army in the Liujia Army! They haven't appeared in the public eye for a year, but they didn't expect to be dispatched for this joint hunt!" Some people speculated that the Flying Dragon Battalion was dispatched to ensure the safety of this joint hunt.

There were also people who frowned slightly, and when the Wyvern General galloped past, he caught a trace of something wrong on his face, as if there was a sense of anger.

"No! The red military flag, the flagpole with the tip of the spear, that's the battle flag! Where are they going to attack?" someone said what he had noticed wrong, and it immediately caused a lot of discussion.

In peacetime, there will be a round cap on the top of the flagpole, and only in wartime, the tip of the flagpole will be a spear tip.

"Let's go, let's see!" Men immediately mounted their horses and rode away in pursuit of them, while some of them, who had no horses, ran as fast as they could in the direction the army had left.

Fortunately, the smoke and dust left by the army were very conspicuous, and it did not disperse for a long time, and many people followed to their destination.

The more people followed, the more they realized that something was wrong, because this direction was the direction of going to Liaocheng, could it be that the Flying Dragon Battalion was going to attack Liaocheng?

When the crowd arrived one after another, they found that Liu Feilong had already led his troops to battle under the gate of Liaocheng, and the gate of Liaocheng had been closed, and it was covered with archers and city defense equipment.

Everyone hid far behind, and did not dare to come out, waiting to see how the situation would develop.

"General Wyvern, what do you mean by that?" a general at the city gate clenched his spear and shouted downward.

"Yuan Hong, you know what I'm doing, a city wall can't stop me, I don't want your god ape army to accompany the burial, so open the city gate!" Liu Feilong raised the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand, pointed at the general who defended the city, and all the soldiers of the army followed with a shout, the heavens and the earth seemed to be shaken, and the momentum of the Feilong Camp could be seen!

The war horse under Liu Feilong also snorted twice, and two white gases erupted from his nose, which seemed to be echoing his master.

Yuan Hong's brows were twisted, how strong the combat power of the Feilong Battalion was, the whole world knew that with his Divine Ape Army, he couldn't stop it at all, this city wall was even more useless for Liu Feilong, there was no city in this world that Liu Feilong couldn't break!

The number of people in the Feilong battalion is one hundred, and any one of them is at the rank of captain, everyone is proficient in riding and archery shield spears, and they are all all-round soldiers, and they are definitely the elite of the elite in the Liu family's army. What's even more terrifying is that the physical fitness of each of them is above the fifth rank of martial arts! Twenty military commanders have even reached the ninth rank of martial arts!

"The order is here, and the battle will not retreat!" Yuan Hong replied in a loud voice.

Yuan Hong's words fell, and everyone only felt that a meteor flashed in front of them, and then they heard a sonorous sound, and the Fang Tian painting halberd in Liu Feilong's hand had been inserted into the city, Liu Feilong kicked on the saddle at his feet, jumped on the city, and pulled out the heavenly painting halberd on the way, and the tip of the halberd was close to Yuan Hong's throat.

This series of actions was completed in one go, and it ended in the blink of an eye, so fast that people couldn't react, so when Yuan Hong made a move, the tip of the halberd had pierced Yuan Hong's epidermis, and a drop of red blood slid down the tip of the halberd, and the tip of the halberd would kill Yuan Hong a few centimeters down.

At this moment, the crowd of onlookers felt that they were about to suffocate, and they held their breath and did not even dare to breathe.

"Huashen! you have come this far?" Yuan Hong's eyes widened, but he didn't dare to move, he had reason to believe that if he had a trace of resistance, Liu Feilong would definitely end his life, the Liu family had always done things unscrupulously, this seemed to be acquiesced by King Chen.

"The general can't die!" Liu Feilong didn't respond to Yuan Hong's words, but just said indifferently.

Yuan Hong's face struggled, and finally with a wave of his hand, he ordered the city gate to be opened. After reaching the god, this city gate is more like an ornament for Liu Feilong, it doesn't make much sense to stop it or not, even if Yuan Hong doesn't think about himself, he has to think about the entire god ape army, and it's a big deal to get punished afterwards.

did not break out as everyone imagined a siege battle, the Flying Dragon Battalion successfully entered the city gate, and those spectators hurriedly followed, but at the city gate, they were still stopped by Yuan Hong's Divine Ape Army and carefully checked before being released, these spectators did not have the same treatment as the Flying Dragon Battalion.

In the city, in a tavern, a man in the prime of his thirties was dressed in a shabby robe, with some inconspicuous scars on his face, and his complexion was dark, looking full of traces of the vicissitudes of time.

"What's it called?" the man picked up the bowl until it was eye level, paused for a few seconds, then whispered to himself and tilted his head to drink it down.

"Damn, naming is a technical job!" the man sighed as he put the bowl down with a frown.

No one would have thought that Liu Zhanguo, the world-famous general of Chen Guo, who commanded the Nine Kingdoms, would be stumped by the name.

A cold wind blew, Liu Zhan Guo unconsciously sneezed, rubbed his index finger under his nostrils, and said to himself: "Sure enough, it's old? I sneeze when I get a little cold wind, but it's really cold this day, tomorrow is Laba, right? Laba is over, it's a small year, and after a small year, it's a new year......

"By the way, just call him, Xiao Nian. Liu Zhanguo stopped rubbing his nose and slammed his right hand into a fist in his left palm, as if he had finalized a major life event.

"No!" Liu Zhanguo suddenly heard a voice in the void beside him, but he didn't find anyone when he looked around.
