Pingyang City, Yonghe City and Anding City are the three major cities in the north of the Great Qian Dynasty, located in the south of the Tiger Leaping Gorge, at the junction of the barbarians, and have borne the burden of resisting the barbarian invasion for thousands of years.
In order to kill Jiang Yuanshan and others, Emperor Dezong secretly invited Qihar, the master of the three barbarian tribes, and a group of masters, and the price paid was these three cities.
Seeing the majestic city wall of Pingyang City, there are traces of dark red blood on it, showing the tragedy of the war over the years, as well as the vicissitudes left by the years.
Jiang Sinan's expression was a little complicated, these three cities have often been the focus of barbarian raids since the founding of the Daqian Dynasty for more than 800 years, and even many times, the three cities were directly occupied by the barbarians.
Seven years ago, in order to recover these three cities, Jiang Sinan's third uncle Jiang Ziyong went to war, killed more than a dozen barbarian generals, and captured hundreds of thousands of troops.
His father, Jiang Zixuan, started from Pingyang City five years ago, led a million-strong army to break through the eighteen cities of the barbarians, penetrated thousands of miles into the prairie, and finally died in the barbarian capital of Baima City.
"These three cities are really related to my Jiang family!"
Jiang Sinan sighed lightly, his eyes flickered, and he said to the Red Flame Sparrow: "I'm going down to have a look, you can play by yourself!"
After speaking, Jiang Sinan jumped forward, like a golden meteor, from above the sky, falling rapidly towards Pingyang City, the red flame finch also chirped, turned around and flew happily towards the surrounding barren forest.
"This place is close to the barbarian steppe, so I should be able to find out some news. ”
Jiang Sinan's mind turned slightly, restrained the aura on his body, and entered Pingyang City like an ordinary person.
After breaking through to the Innate Realm and starting to cultivate the Hongmeng Creation Sutra, Jiang Sinan found that if he deliberately hid his aura, even the powerhouses of the True Heaven Realm would not be able to discover his own details.
Moreover, his divine soul is powerful, and the mysterious light emitted by the white jade pagoda can perfectly hide the fluctuations of his divine soul, these small means are much stronger than the Qinglongwei who is good at spying and assassinating under the old man.
People come and go in Pingyang City, lively and extraordinary, on both sides of the wide avenue, shops and wine shops are lined up, very lively, although the Great Qian and the barbarians are at war, but for the civilians below, there are still some commercial contacts between the two parties, so in Pingyang City, you can also see the barbarians wearing animal skins and burly bodies.
Zuixian Tower is the most famous restaurant in Pingyang City, with a total of three floors, covering a vast area, with three religions and nine streams, people coming and going, and business is very hot.
Xiao Eryi saw Jiang Sinan, his eyes suddenly lit up, although Jiang Sinan didn't seem to have a strong breath, but the clothes on his body were expensive and the materials were exquisite, and he looked like everyone's son, so he hurriedly stepped forward respectfully and led Jiang Sinan directly to the third floor.
Jiang Sinan chose a window seat and sat down, ordered a pot of wine, a few side dishes, and casually rewarded Xiao Er with a silver ingot of ten taels, which immediately made Xiao Er smile for a while, knowing that he had met a generous guest, and became more respectful.
On the third floor, there were hundreds of people, Jiang Sinan sat by the window, but it was a little inconspicuous, he glanced around, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
The people sitting at the table in the distance were a burly young man and a thin old man, although they were all dressed as big people, and their faces were also very similar, but in Jiang Sinan's soul perception, that fierce aura was exactly the same as that of the barbarians.
What surprised Jiang Sinan the most was the thin old man, who looked extremely ordinary, but he was exactly the same as Qihar, the barbarian Three Kingdoms Master who was killed by himself!
If it weren't for the fact that Qihar had been killed, and this old man looked even stronger than Qihar, Jiang Sinan would have thought that Qihar had come back from the dead.
Moreover, on this drunken immortal building, Jiang Sinan also found an acquaintance, in another box, Li Jinlong and a few big men, big fish and meat, a big bowl of wine was drinking, looking very happy.
Jiang Sinan was a little speechless, but he didn't expect this rammer to escape under his hands a few times, and finally he was encountered by himself again.
His divine soul was incomparably powerful, even if it was a powerhouse of the ordinary True Heaven Realm, it was not comparable to him, so he casually covered the entire Drunken Immortal Building, and some important information slowly came into his ears.
"Have you noticed that there are a lot more barbarians in Pingyang City in the past few days, and they have also exchanged their precious war horses, ores, cattle and sheep for a lot of food, elixirs and other materials?"
"What's this?" Another person said with a smile: "Since the barbarians beaten by General Baima were frightened, those barbarians have been honest, in the past, in the harsh winter, they were all arrogant and arrogant across the Tiger Leaping Gorge to plunder food in the three major cities, but now they can only buy it honestly, and they have to pay several times the price!"
"General White Horse is a megatron, but this time the barbarians came to Pingyang City, it is said that it is for a big event!"
"What's the big deal?" the others came up curiously.
"It is said that three days later, the barbarian tribe's triennial sacrifice to the heavens will be held in the White Horse City, and it is for this time that they prepare various materials for the worship of the heavens. ”
"It's actually a ritual to worship the heavens?!" exclaimed the people around him.
Jiang Sinan's eyes flashed, and when he heard the word "Sacrifice to the Heavens", he was also a little stunned, as far as he knew, the Sacrifice to the Heavens was the grandest ceremony of the barbarians, and all the tribes on the barbarian prairie would participate in it at that time.
The first is to worship the god of stars and the mother of the earth worshiped by the barbarians, and the second and most important point is that the people of the Hall of Stars will also be present, and they will select talented people from all the young people under the age of eighteen from the barbarians to join the Hall of Stars!
This is what makes the barbarian people the craziest, the Star Hall is one of the three major immortal gates, if you can join the Star Palace, then in the future, it will definitely be a strong person overlooking the entire Qianyuan Domain, so countless barbarian teenagers are full of expectations for the gift of worshipping the sky.
"Will the people from the Hall of Stars also go?"
The corners of Jiang Sinan's mouth raised slightly, and he had a plan in his heart.
He didn't know where Xingchen Mountain was, even Ye Xijun only knew that Xingchen Mountain was in the northernmost part of the barbarian grassland, in the endless snowy mountains, and it was said that it was the closest place to Xingchen.
The Star Palace's cultivation of the power of the stars is like the Seven Star Divine Fist, which is a divine martial art that has evolved based on Zhou Tian Xingchen.
If he had gone to Xingchen Mountain by himself, he didn't know when it would be, but now that there was such a gift to the sky, things would be much easier.
At this time, the burly young man beside the thin old man glanced around arrogantly, and said with a sneer: "What kind of bullshit White Horse General, it's just a waste of fame, not killed by the masters of the barbarians, but also involved a million troops, in my opinion, he is a sinner of Daqian, a sinner for the ages!"
The burly young man's words suddenly made the entire third floor of the Drunken Immortal Building boil.
They are all people in Pingyang City, deeply favored by General Baima, five years ago, General Baima's battle almost crushed the fighting spirit of the barbarians, so that they are all about to lose the country, completely beat the barbarians honestly, and the three cities can now avoid the suffering of war.
In their hearts, General Baima is the military god of Daqian, where can they tolerate other people's insults to the military god, and they all immediately glared at the burly young man, and their eyes breathed fire, and they scolded.
