Chapter 6 shook the state of Chu
"Life is so insignificant, sometimes, blessings and misfortunes are coming, and do it and cherish it!"
"At the same time, Jiangxia City of Chu State, inside the City Lord's Mansion, is not calm, outside Jiangxia City in Chu State, the news of the appearance of warlock fighting methods spread very quickly, which soon caused an uproar in Chu State, many great families were stunned, and even the royal family was shaken!"
"Almost all the people of the great family, the people in the royal family, are talking about it and have begun to send people to find out the truth!"
"Everyone in the world is talking about it, for ordinary people, the "magician" almost exists like a god, although there are magicians in the Chu State, but the dragon does not see the head and the tail, it is extremely rare! Even if people in the royal family or people from wealthy families do not see each other several times a year, let alone ordinary people, this is already a legend. β
"Now, there is a fight between the warlocks in the Xia City of the Chu State, which is very very vast, because of this fight, many nearby villages have been affected, and the fire is monstrous, overwhelming, and it burned for a day and a night before it was extinguished!
"This is also a catastrophe, several villages have been burned down, and many people have died!"
"Jiangxia City, with a long history, has existed for thousands of years, in the territory of Chu State, it is only a small city, less than the top, more than the bottom, the city is full of traffic, the street is bustling with people, the streets are lined with shops, the sound of selling is endless! There are all kinds of jugglers around the corner, and many adults and children are gathered. β
"But at the moment, the streets, the pubs, the inns, the teahouses, and so on! β
"That was three days ago night, there was a topic of warlock fighting, it was not uncommon for the warlock to fight in Jiangxia City, there was never an incident about the warlock fighting. β
"Wanbao Tea House, the building is seven floors high, on weekdays, the merchants who come in and go from the north to the south, the business is good, occasionally some children of the family, and even many big people live together, people like to talk about various things here, it is a good place to gather, the news is quite well-informed!"
"You have heard that fifty miles to the east outside the city, there was a battle of magicians three nights ago, and the fire was raging, and it was close at hand, and I heard that many people had died. β
"But isn't it? This news has already spread out, and the entire Chu country has been shaken, since a few days ago, the city lord personally led the guards to the scene to check, and there has been no result so far. β
"Speaking of which," the magician said, "For us, it is a god-like existence, how can it be clear to the ordinary people? There has not been a magician in Jiangxia City for a long time, and it seems that it was ten years ago since the last time. β
"Yes, ten years ago, there was indeed a time when the city lord held a banquet. The warlock is too far away from us, this time according to reliable information, the fight of the warlock alarmed the royal family, I heard, today the royal family sent someone to investigate, don't you know? β
"When the big men come, they are all here for the warlock to fight! β
"The sky is blue and blue, the scorching sun hangs high, at the gate of the city lord's mansion in Jiangxia City, it is very lively, and people continue to gather on the street, today, Jiangxia City is afraid that there are big people coming, breaking the calm of the past, the head of the famous family in the city, the children of the family, and the ordinary people, appear from all directions, gather here, this time the city lord's mansion, in addition to the famous families in the city, even the surrounding city lords, almost all have to gather together, and there are many other famous families around the city, and even some literati and scholars, reclusive predecessors have come, how many years have never happenedγ β
"In the City Lord's Mansion, Su Chen didn't know how long he had been asleep, in the past few days, he woke up several times, but he fell asleep again, until today, he was completely awake, and he couldn't believe it until now, it was like a nightmare, and he was unforgettable in his heart for a long time. β
"Grandpa is gone, and the people in the village are all dead!"
"From now the village has suffered a catastrophe, three days later, in the city lord's mansion, a wing room, a man in brocade walked in from outside the door, these days, although Su Chen is confused, someone faintly visits him, presumably it is the man in brocade in front of him. β
"Little brother, are you feeling better, I see that you are getting better today, and your spirit is recovering well,"
An extremely peaceful voice greeted the man in brocade who had been taking care of Su Chen for a few days. β
In fact, Su Chen couldn't wake up, not only that, but he was too sad, and the "sacrificial flag" absorbed essence and blood, and his blood and qi were much less, so he had been in a state of confusion and couldn't wake up for the past few days. β
"Big brother, thank you for taking care of you these days. Su Chen got down from the bed, stood up, looked up at the man in brocade, and said slowly. β
The man in brocade smiled with a slight smile and said, "Little brother, you are polite, you can sit down first." β
"The pain of losing a loved one, you can just look at everything, the man in brocade comforted. β
"Little brother, don't call me big brother, introduce yourself, in Xia Lu Shaoming, the son of the city lord of Jiangxia City. A few years older than you, if you don't mind, call out Brother Lu!"
Su Chen couldn't help but be taken aback, he didn't expect that he was actually in Jiangxia City, and the young man in front of him, who was not much older than himself, was actually the son of the city lord's mansion master. β
"Su Chen, after reading books for a few years, he naturally knows about the Grace Map. β
The man in brocade in front of him was spotless, unspeakably expensive, elegant and noble, and the whole person was smiling, which made people feel extremely intimate. β
"In the ancient barren continent, there are many strong people, the strength represents one, the martial arts are popular, the son of the city lord, this kind of identity, after ordinary people see it, they all want to bow down. β
The man in brocade in front of him has a very high status, and he is not arrogant, he is approachable, but he gives people an extremely inexplicable friendliness. β
Su Chen stayed for a while, and then, bowed and bowed, grass people, Su Chen, saw the young city lord. β
Lu Shaoming smiled and said, "Little brother, what are you doing, hurry up." β
"I was born but I was a little luckier than others, don't take it to heart, besides, the name of the young city lord, this title is really not suitable for me, Lu Shaoming took two steps forward, wanting to help Su Chen up. β
Su Chen didn't get up, shook his head, raised his head and looked at Lu Shaoming, thought about it in his mind, but he didn't hesitate, and then said solemnly: "Young City Lord, thank you for watching the drafted people, if you mind the Young City Lord being called like this, then I will boldly shout, Brother Lu." β
Su Chen said: "Brother Lu, thank you for taking care of me these days, thank you, I buried my grandfather, the people in the village, they are all my relatives, your great kindness is beyond retribution, please accept my worship, Su Chen was grateful in his heart, and his attitude was extremely sincere and kowtowed three times!"
"Little brother Su Chen, you shout big brother, okay, these things are all a gesture, get up quickly, the man has gold under his knees, hurry up. β
"Lu Shaoming's words and deeds made Su Chen feel more caring!"
Su Chen no longer hesitated and stood up! He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "In the world, there are really good people, there are many." β
In the room between the two, they exchanged ideas. β
"Lu Shaoming, an extremely beautiful name, the eldest son of the city lord of Jiangxia City, born extraordinary, unspeakably expensive, can be called the first person of the younger generation of Jiangxia City, with a very high status, on weekdays, every word and deed, every move, deeply loved by the people of Jiangxia City, anyone, feel that the next city lord is him, and the young generation in Chu State also has a very high reputation. β
Lu Shaoming assisted his father in investigating the warlock fight, Su Chen was the only survivor of this incident, and took special care of him, not only that, Lu Shaoming also carefully observed Su Chen in the past few days, and found that there were only eleven or twelve children in front of him, much stronger than he imagined, this son values love and righteousness, is grateful to Dade, and admires himself, unlike ordinary people, he will not be a thing in the pool in the future. β
After half a pillar of incense, Lu Shaoming glanced at you Su Chen and said, "Little brother Su Chen, after a while, I will introduce you to my father."
Su Chen glanced at Lu Shaoming, a little incomprehensible, a little surprised, and said, "Brother Lu, Lord City, you want to see me, this ......." β
Lu Shaoming recounted the cause and effect of the incident and said: "Little brother Su Chen, I don't know yet, the battle incident of the warlock outside Jiangxia City has shaken the Chu State, and now Your Majesty has personally ordered someone to investigate." As the lord of Jiangxia City, my father has the responsibility to find out the incident of the warlock fight. So little brother Su Chen, you don't have to worry too much, if you see anything about the fight between the warlocks in Caokeng Village, just answer truthfully, and it will be fine. I will always be there for you, too. β
Su Chen was a little surprised, he didn't expect the Warlock of Caokeng Village to fight and shake the Chu State, and alarm His Majesty the Chu State. Su Chen expressed his gratitude to Lu Shaoming, knowing that he didn't have much experience, he must have someone by his side to make him feel safe, thought about it and said: "Brother Lu, you have a life-saving grace for me, I know everything, I will do my best to help." β
"At the same time, Jiangxia City, on the streets, there are more and more people gathered, they are almost crowded, there are too many people, overcrowded, there is almost no place to stay, and finally the city lord personally ordered the guards in the city to maintain order, at the gate of the city lord's mansion, two rows of streets are lined up, and there are people everywhere in the eyes. β
"There are a lot of people on weekdays, but today, in addition to the local people in the city, there are also a lot of people nearby, and there are many people rushing to live here, from famous families to pawn dealers, all gathered here!"
"There were quite a few people in the crowd, and there was a lot of discussion here, and some people recognized a lot of big people. β
"Look, the person who just walked into the City Lord's Mansion, that senior seems to be the predecessor of the famous Confucian "Wu Daozi" in Jiangxia City. I don't know which family is very well-informed, I heard that Wu Daozi's predecessors had taught the prince of Chu when he was young, and now his majesty is Chu State. β
Someone sighed that it was indeed a big man. His Majesty's Teacher of the State of Chu today. One by one, he is a big man, he didn't expect this incident to alarm him, and the old man came. β
At this time, another big man appeared, and the king of Zhenbei appeared, which caused many people to get excited. β
"Who is the king of Zhenbei, the mighty Chu country, no one knows the big man, the second person in the Chu country today, holding a million military power, His Majesty the current Chu country worships brothers, and has won the trust of His Majesty the Chu State, an extremely important big man, according to rumors, His Majesty the Chu State can ascend the throne of the Ninety-Five Supreme Throne, and the King of Zhenbei is indispensable. β
After a while, someone appeared again, three big people, that was the top ten great families in the Chu State, and the three major families had arrived. β
"For a long time, many came, and when they arrived at the city lord's mansion, they were one big man after another. In addition, to be able to enter the city lord's mansion, it is definitely a first-class big man, for ordinary people, it is better to see it than to see it on weekdays, and even many people, today can see so many big people, they are very excited, they are in line in vain, and they wait all night before they pour into Jiangxia City, they can advocate for a lifetime, and they are almost a dream completed!"
"In the city lord's mansion, the hall is very large, very wide, there is a huge portrait hanging on the wall, several zhang high, the man in the portrait is tall, born with a unique temperament of the king of the world, it is the first generation of emperors of the founder of the Chu State three thousand years ago.
There are couplets on both sides of the portrait, "Emperor Chu of Qianqiu, sweeping the ancient wilderness." "A generation of Tianjiao, unifying the country has become a great cause!"
This is the evaluation of later generations, the first generation of emperors of Chu in the portrait, unprecedented in the past, his great achievements, too many, innumerable, indescribable. β
"Under the huge portrait, in the hall, there are ten golden sandalwood chairs on both sides, full of ten big people, two in the center, no one sits, behind the golden sandalwood chairs, there are some children of the family, there are dozens of people on both sides, there are men and women, all of them are only about seventeen or eighteen years old, the male is outstanding, outstanding, the female is beautiful and generous, slim and elegant, in the hall, there is no crowding, very broad!"
"Everyone in the hall is talking, the ten big people greet each other, as if they are talking about something, and some of the children of the family are also talking softly!"
In the first position on the far right of the hall, a middle-aged man got up, around forty years old, Lu Yongfeng, the city lord of Jiangxia City, took a step forward, and first said politely to the first man in the seat on the left: "Lord Wang, I have come all the way, and I have worked hard all the way!"
Then he said to the second old man sitting on the left: "I've seen Elder Wu." β
"His Majesty the Emperor of Chu today!"
"Finally, I would like to be polite to the others, ladies and gentlemen, it is really hard to come from afar. β
"Lu, if you don't recruit well, please bear with me and all the adults!"
"Everyone in the hall glanced at each other, Lord Lu, you are polite!"
Lu Tianfeng continued: "Ladies and gentlemen, the incident of the 'Fang Warlock Fight' outside Jiangxia City is unheard of. Jiangxia has never happened for thousands of years, this matter has shaken the state of Chu, the stakes are very high, Your Majesty sent the king of Zhenbei to investigate the case personally, in the next as the city lord of Jiangxia City, he should share his worries for His Majesty, and now the relevant situation, I have reported it one by one, and the prince already knows. β
"At present, there has been no progress in the investigation of the people involved in the fight incident of the "Fang Warlock" in Jiangxia City. In the village in the center of the fighting, there is only one survivor, a teenager, who is seriously injured and is recuperating in the house. β
"King Zhenbei, the No. 2 person in the State of Chu, this is a heroic and majestic person, and said: His Majesty the King of Chu attaches great importance to it, and I and the Lord of Lu City personally went to the scene to check, it is indeed a disaster. So far, several villages have suffered extremely serious losses, with thousands of dead and wounded, and His Majesty wants us to find out the truth and which forces entered the territory of Chu State. β
The old man Wu Daozi also spoke: "Jiangxia City, there is such a disaster, my old man, I want to ask, even a magician, he can't kill innocent people without fear!"
The others also opened their mouths to talk, and some said that the magician, it was better not to participate. β
Others said that the key is to investigate clearly. β
"Some people also said whether other forces would enter the territory of Chu State. β
............
After a while, the crowd was talking, and everyone was talking, as if they were talking about something. β
Lu Shaoming, who led Su Chen, came to the hall, pulled Su Chen to kneel down and said respectfully: "See, I've seen the prince, and all the adults." β
Su Chen also learned from Lu Shaoming and said: "I have seen the prince, and all the adults." β
Everyone looked at the two people kneeling on the ground, almost all of them looked at it carefully, Lu Shaoming was talented, polite, and naturally attracted everyone's attention, especially some children of the family in the back rows, and the young talents couldn't help but look at Lu Shaoming a few more times. β
"As for Su Chen, he was not so lucky, everyone glanced at it, and glanced at the young man, and the young man in front of him was the survivor who survived the warlock fight that day!"
King Zhenbei glanced at Lu Shaoming, yes! It is indeed a rare talent in the Chu State. β
Su Chen also glanced at everyone, although he lowered his head, he couldn't help but look at everyone. β
King Zhenbei stared at Su Chen and said, "You are that young man, did you see a warlock fighting three nights ago?"
Su Chen didn't want to think about it, but in order to find out clearly, he replied seriously: "Yes, if you go back to the prince, I saw the grass people, three days ago the night, there were two magicians fighting in the air in the grass people's village, but the distance was too far away, and they didn't see their figures clearly, they called each other's names." One of the sorcerers was named Zhu Tianyu, and the other was called Gu Mu, and the grass people didn't know about the rest. β
"Gu Mu, Zhu Tianyu, everyone looked at each other. The patriarch of the Zhenbei Wang Dashi family exchanged heads and ears, and he didn't come up with an impression after thinking about it, but he was afraid that he was not from Chu and not from Chu. β
King Zhenbei stared at Su Chen and said, "It seems that you know so much, but poor children, you all get up and go down!"
Then he said to the city lord Lu beside him: "This is a poor child, you treat it well." β
The city lord replied: "Yes, lord!"
After getting up, after turning to leave, Su Chen seemed to think of something and said: "Lord Wang, although the fire was raging at that time, although the grass people couldn't see the two of them clearly, but the ancient wood magician once roared and said a word, but he remembered it clearly. β
"Oh, what did you say, Zhenbei Wangdao. β
Su Chen thought about it, recalled Gu Mu's words that night in his memory, and muttered: "Sacrificial Banner, this is a vicious thing, devouring blood and taking away souls, absorbing the blood of living souls, killing living souls, and cutting off all vitality!"
The king of Zhenbei was just about to drink tea and was shocked when he heard this, and almost spit out the tea in his mouth, stood up and stared at Su Chen and said, "You just said" sacrifice the flag. β
Although the king of Zhenbei heard it very clearly, in order to be sure that the young man in front of him opened his mouth and said, "Sacrifice the flag". Again, convinced!
Su Chen nodded seriously, yes, I did hear a person named Gu Mu shouting "Sacrifice Banner".
King Zhenbei glanced at the young man in front of him, the young man couldn't lie, "sacrificial flags" even he was only once in a while, His Majesty said, "Sacrificial flags, but the legend is a forbidden thing, and it can drive the "sacrificial flags" must be big people. β
"Sacrificial Flag" must have been a certain big man, who came to the territory of Chu and thought of this. King Zhenbei was anxious all of a sudden, and said to the lobby: "You have taken your leave first, this matter is very important, I can't help but start Your Majesty as soon as possible." This matter ends here, and it cannot be traced, and today's events must not be spread to the outside world! Otherwise, there will be no forgiveness for killing, and the king of Zhenbei personally ordered it, and no one did not obey it. β
"Everyone in the entire hall looked at each other one by one, dumbfounded, for a while, the number two person in the dignified empire, obviously just behaved, scared, but everyone knows that this matter is too serious, everyone quieted down!"
When the matter was over, everyone got up and took their leave. β
