Chapter 51: Life and Death Unknown

The Great Chu Kingdom, Mocheng, and the city wall were in ruins, and all within a radius of dozens of zhang became flat ground. Suddenly, a huge palm stretched out from the ground, and then, a large area of land erupted from the ground, and two figures jumped out, it was Xia Yi and the giant spirit! Xia Yi dusted off the dust on his body, and then stretched out his hand, and more than 4,000 people were released by Xia Yi from the map of the mountains and rivers. They looked at the flat ground dozens of feet wide under their feet and looked at Xia Yi with a shocked expression.

At that time, a huge wave of energy was pouring in the direction of Mocheng like a mountain and a sea, Xia Yi quickly included everyone in the Shanhe Sheji map, and then turned into a thunderous body, escaped into the ground, buried the Shanhe Sheji map deep underground, and then entered it himself. Just after Xia Yi completed this, the energy wave surged quickly, and all the places he passed were reduced to ruins, and the walls of Mocheng City and many buildings inside were devastated, and Xia Yi and the others escaped this storm!

Xia Yi looked around, there was no longer a figure of the black-robed man, and he must have been buried in the raging energy storm. At this time, Xia Lin stepped forward and said excitedly: "Father-in-law, you are finally back!" Xia Yi looked at his youngest son seriously, sighed in his heart, and said: "You three brothers, you didn't disappoint your father! It is worthy of being my son, hahahaha......" Immediately, he patted Xia Lin on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, go back to the house with my father!" Xia Lin nodded and followed behind Xia Yi.

At this time, Tao Yu and Qin Tianqian also came to Xia Yi's side, and the two of them said excitedly: "General, you are finally back!" Xia Yi looked at the two, nodded and said: "I have stepped down from the post of general, and I don't need to be called that in the future." The two nodded, and then Xia Yi said: "Tianqi, gather the army and go home!" Qin Tianqian obeyed the order and immediately went down to reorganize the army. Xia Yi took Tao Yu, Xia Lin and the others to the direction of Xia Mansion.

When the battle ended, everyone was full of emotion, and then excitedly followed Xia Yi back home. Suddenly, a blue light appeared in the void and shot towards Xia Lin, Xia Yi's divine sense instantly caught this movement, and his heart was furious, his hands thunder and lightning surged, and a palm-sized ball of thunder and lightning energy instantly appeared, hitting the blue light. The blue light seemed to be illusory, and it actually shot into Xia Lin's chest through the thunder and lightning energy.

Xia Yi was shocked in his heart, and quickly grabbed Xia Lin, only to see a layer of blue light floating around Xia Lin, he looked at Xia Yi, the panic between his eyebrows flashed, and then he was relieved, and was about to say something, but the whole figure became more and more illusory, and finally disappeared in place. Xia Yi was furious in his heart, his eyes were red, and he roared in a low voice: "Lin'er! Lin'er......"

The black-robed man appeared in the sky at some point, and he shouted wildly: "Xia Yi, your loved ones will disappear from you one by one! I won't stop there, quack......" Xia Yi was on the verge of anger at the moment, he looked like crazy, and quickly rushed forward, and the black-robed man took a small step back and disappeared into the void.

Seeing this, Xia Yi clenched his fists, looked up to the sky and roared angrily: "Shameless rats, return my child!! ah!!!!!"

Xia Yi was angry at the moment, he was covered in thunder and lightning, and countless thunder and lightning yuan forces frantically bombarded towards the place where the black-robed man disappeared, but to no avail. A huge coercion emanated from Xia Yi's body, and everyone felt Xia Yi's madness, and stood silent. After a long time, Xia Yi regained his composure, fell ahead of everyone, and said, "Go home!"

On the second day, Xia Fu.

Xia Yi's eyes were slightly closed, sitting high above, his right index finger rhythmically tapping on the armrest of the chair, in the hall, Xia Yu and Xia Xiu stood on the right side, their faces were heavy, obviously because of Xia Lin's unwillingness. Tao Yu, Qin Tianqi and the giant spirit stood on the left side, expressionless, looking at Xia Yi. After a long time, Xia Yi opened his eyes, took out two letters, looked at Tao Yu and said: "Tao Yu, I have a letter here, you take it to Jijing, hand him over to the former prime minister of the Great Chu State, Zou Yan, and secretly guard Zou Mansion." Tao Yu stepped forward to take the letterhead and nodded.

Xia Yi looked at Qin Tianqian and said, "Tianqi, you take this letter to Jijing, give it to Xiang Wuchu, the former general of the Great Chu State, and secretly protect it in Xiang's mansion!" Qin Tianqi stepped forward to take the letterhead, Xia Yi continued: "You two set off immediately, be sure to protect the safety of Zou Yan and Xiang Wuchu!" Tao Yu and the two of them responded to the order, and then retreated.

After the two of them retreated, Xia Yi handed a scroll on the table to Xia Xiu, and said: "Xiu'er, this is the name tree of Juxianzhuang's doormen, among which the key marks are all outstanding talents carefully selected by your third brother, who have been hidden in the Xia Mansion before, and you call these people now." Xia Xiu took the roster, looked at things and thought about people, and a trace of bitterness swelled in her heart.

Xia Yi saw what Xia Xiu was thinking, and he said in a deep voice: "Xiu'er, I promise you for my father, one day, I will find your third brother, and the black-robed man will be broken into thousands of pieces, and his bones will be scattered!" Xia Xiu listened, a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes, and then nodded to Xia Yi and withdrew from the hall.

At this moment, only Xia Yi and Xia Yu were left in the hall. Xia Yu opened his mouth and said: "Father-in-law, is the third brother alive or dead this time?" Xia Yi sighed, shook his head and said: "Your third brother's life and death are unknown this time, and the father can only start with the black-robed man!" Xia Yu nodded, and then said: "Father-in-law, this is the matter, the child wants to leave the Great Chu Kingdom and go out!" Xia Yi listened, his face tightened, waved his hand and said, "According to what you said!" Xia Yu immediately knelt down and said: "The child went out this time, I don't know what year and month he will return, and I hope that the father-in-law will take care of his body!" Xia Yi kowtowed three times in a row, then got up and exited the hall.

Xia Yi took a deep breath, his eyelids trembled slightly, and then his complexion returned to calm. At this time, Xia Xiu came to the hall with five people, and the five people saw Xia Yi sitting high with a majestic face, and immediately stepped forward respectfully, and a man in a green shirt on the far right said: "Cao Min Luo Shuzhu, I have seen Xia Shuai!" Xia Yi looked at this person, only to see that his face was ordinary, but a pair of eyes were extremely deep, standing in the hall like a proud bamboo.

Xia Yi looked at Luo Shuzhu and said, "Xia Shuai, hehe, this title has been useless for a long time. Luo Shuzhu continued: "I believe that it won't be long before the name of Xia Shuai will be popular in my Great Chu Country again!" Xia Yi looked at Luo Shuzhu with interest and asked:

"Why?"

"The time has come!"

"It's just my Great Chu Kingdom?"

"Exactly!"

"Why?"

"If you go outside, you must first settle inside!"

"Strengthening the city walls and storing up food is your suggestion?"

"It's the grass people!"

Luo Shuzhu stood respectfully in the hall, looking at Xia Yi, for a long time, Xia Yi laughed and said: "Okay! Luo Shuzhu, by the fall of a leaf, you know the autumn of the world, you are a talent!" Luo Shuzhu immediately bowed and replied: "Xia Shuai praises falsely! The grass people are just a scholar!" Xia Yi heard the meaning of the words, and immediately said: "From today on, Luo Shuzhu will be my Xia Mansion staff, and follow Ben Shuai around!" Luo Shuzhu immediately knelt down on one knee and said: "Xie Xia Shuai appreciates!" Xia Yi nodded, Luo Shuzhu walked to the left side of the hall and bowed down to stand there.

The remaining four people stepped forward one after another, but their performance was not as outstanding as Luo Shuzhu, Xia Yi named the four of them as Xiafu Keqing, gave them the house, and then dismissed. At this moment, there were only three people left in the hall, Xia Yi, Xia Xiu and Luo Shuzhu, Xia Yi looked at Luo Shuzhu and asked: "Luo Shuzhu, now that Ben Shuai has returned to Xia Mansion, in your opinion, what should I do next?"

Luo Shuzhu's eyes flashed, he hugged his fist to Xia Yi, and then said: "Although the first emperor is not a sage, he also sees that Zhu Tongwu is not a talent for governing the world, and the foundation of my Great Chu State for thousands of years, the first emperor will definitely not let him be buried here." Come to think of it, the emperor talked with you for a day and a night, and the things you talked about are relevant today, what do you say, your lord?"

Xia Xiu was confused when she heard this, and wondered in her heart, why did Luo Shuzhu suddenly call his father-in-law the prince! Prince, his father-in-law had already resigned as the prince! Why did this Luo Shuzhu bring up the old matter again?

Xia Yi looked at Luo Shuzhu, a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and then he sighed and said: "Back then, the emperor knew that I had no intention of making a name, so he discussed with me all night and drafted this edict!" After that, Xia Yi took down the painting hanging on the wall of the hall and took out an object from its mezzanine, which was a golden brocade silk, which was a holy decree! Xia Xiu was surprised in his heart, the holy decree of the first emperor had been hanging in the Xia Mansion Hall for so many years!!

Xia Yi spread out the holy decree, only to see that it was written in black letters: In order to protect the foundation of the Great Chu State for thousands of years, if one day, Wu'er Zhu Tongwu raised troops to attack Mocheng, then Xia Yi came back and stood side by side with the king and replaced his throne!

Xia Xiu and the others looked at it, and a surge of excitement surged in their hearts, Xia Yi put away the edict, and said in a cold voice: "I want to check carefully, who is the black-robed man behind Zhu Tongwu?" After a pause, Xia Yi said to Luo Shuzhu: "The next thing is up to you to arrange!" Luo Shuzhu was excited, and immediately said: "Thank you for your trust!" and then retreated.

Xia Yi took out a Qiankun bag, handed it to Xia Xiu and said, "This Qiankun bag contains 200,000 spirit stones, which you will distribute to the masters in the Yunyan Pavilion! Let them improve their cultivation as soon as possible!" Xia Xiu's face was shocked, and he carefully took the Qiankun bag, and said to Xia Yi: "Father-in-law, rest assured, with these 200,000 spirit stones, the overall strength of my Yunyan Pavilion will definitely have a leap!"

..................

At night, Xia Yu pushed open the door and walked out of the Xia Mansion quietly, not far away, a long sword fell from the sky, the blade of the sword was all submerged into the ground, and on the hilt of the sword, a Qiankun bag was tied. Xia Yu stepped forward and picked up the long sword, tied the Qiankun bag around his waist, kowtowed three times in the direction of Xia Yi, and then walked into the distance without looking back.

After Xia Yu left, Xia Yi's figure appeared here, he looked into the distance, his heart was mixed, he stood for a long time, and slowly disappeared into the night.
