Chapter 220: Nanzhao
The teleportation array of Nanzhao Kingdom was built in a small town, this town is not big, but the city wall is extremely high, almost seven or eight zhang.
The towering city walls, the quaint and majestic eroded by the years, the neat battlements, the deep city gates, and the countless dents of the streets trodden by the horses' hooves all indicate that this small city has experienced countless battles.
It was such a small city that could be called an important military town, and it was actually empty except for the ten monks outside the teleportation array!
The empty small city, only the big flag with the word Mu fluttering on the city wall, the lonely hunting sound in the wind, looks extremely weird.
"This was originally a war city, but it was later given to our Mu family by the Nanzhao royal family, and no one in the whole Nanzhao dared to fight the idea of this small city. ”
Mu Ling looked at the big banner on the city wall and explained to Bai Yi: "Nanzhao is a little special, there is no Xiuzhen sect here, and there is no Xiuzhen family, the Nanzhao royal family rules the mortals and cultivators of the entire country, you can see the entire Nanzhao as a huge sect, and the royal family is the suzerain of this sect."
The lord of Nanzhao is called Nangong Leng, and his cultivation has reached the terrifying level of the late Yuan Infant, and the battle of the spiritual veins of Qingzhou in the last session is that Nanzhao Kingdom won, and the strength of Nanzhao Kingdom's cultivation realm is second to none in the entire Qingzhou, and even our Mu family is slightly inferior. ”
Mu Ling seemed to be very familiar with Nanzhao, but the more Bai Yi listened, the more confused he became, and he couldn't help asking: "The prince of Nanzhao, isn't he a family with the lord of the country?"
Bai Yi has this question because Mu Ling said that Ni Qiuyu is the lord of Puyang in Nanzhao, but the lord of Nanzhao has his surname Nangong, and since Ni Qiuyu's grandfather is the king of Puyang, he should have the same surname as the lord of the country, and he should not have the surname Ni.
"My grandfather is a king with a different surname. ”
Ni Qiuyu frowned slightly, and said quietly: "There are many kings with different surnames in Nanzhao, but anyone who reaches the realm of Jindan will be divided by the lord of the country, and more than ten years ago, there were no less than 100 kings with different surnames in Nanzhao, and now I don't know how many more." ”
Returning to her hometown, Ni Qiuyu became more and more worried, and she continued: "Every king with a different surname not only has his own fief and subjects, but also has his own army, and the people of Nanzhao are fierce, and the army of all princes is composed of monks and mortals under the foundation, and they have to fight endlessly every year......
As if remembering the past of his childhood, Ni Qiuyu's body was actually a little trembling, and his beautiful big eyes were full of fear.
Mu Ling gently hugged his friend and replaced Ni Qiuyu to tell about the cruelty of Nanzhao.
Nanzhao is very special, more than 100 princes have to fight once a year, and the purpose of the conquest is to obtain the cultivation resources rewarded by the lord of Nanzhao.
The spiritual veins of Nanzhao Kingdom are all under the control of the lord of the country, without the order of the lord of the country, no prince has the qualifications to touch the spiritual veins, and the reward once a year has become the only opportunity for those princes to obtain the resources of cultivation.
The reward of the lord of the country is extremely good, and the huge spirit stone resources are enough for those princes to squander for a year, but this reward is not available to every prince, but only one of every two princes can get it, that is to say, half of the princes of the entire Nanzhao Kingdom cannot get any cultivation resources within a year.
This kind of strange rule is not that the cultivation resources of the Nanzhao Kingdom are insufficient, on the contrary, the spiritual veins of the entire Nanzhao Kingdom are more than that of Dapu and Wuyue combined, and the reason why the country lord Nangong Leng did this is to hone the cultivators of the Nanzhao Kingdom.
Even if this kind of tempering is accompanied by cruelty and death, over the years, the lord of Nanzhao has not changed the slightest, not only that, in the past ten years, the army of princes and princes fighting each other has gradually expanded, more than ten years ago it was only a cultivator and a small number of mortals participated, and now in the war, mortal soldiers are becoming more and more numerous.
The Imperial City of Nanzhao was established in the center of Nanzhao, surrounded outside the Imperial City, there is a kind of giant city called 'Battle City', the number of Battle Cities, will always remain in half of the number of Nanzhao Princes, every year of the war, the Nanzhao Princes will be divided into two groups of two, can win a battle city, only the winner, will be rewarded by the lord, and can not win the battle city, can only participate in the competition again in the next year.
There are more than fifty battle cities, and every year there will be a fierce battle at the same time, and the two princes will launch a fierce attack at any cost in order to compete for a war city, even if all the troops under their command are killed in battle.
Cultivation resources are the lifeblood of cultivators, if you want to get cultivation resources in Nanzhao Kingdom, there is only one way to attack the city, and siege is a bloody battle, a cruel war.
Turning the acquisition of cultivation resources into such a cruel battle between the two armies, Bai Yi immediately raised his eyebrows after hearing this.
If the people who participated in the war were cultivators, it would be good to say, after all, in other countries, it would be life and death when the monks competed for cultivation resources, but when he heard that Nangong Leng had begun to use more and more mortal soldiers to participate in the siege battle more than ten years ago, Bai Yi's expression became gloomy.
Cultivators cannot control mortal conquests, this is a well-recognized rule in the Qingkong Realm cultivation realm.
Even if the mortals of the two countries are at war, even if the corpses are monstrous, as long as it is not the cultivator's intention to promote, no one will be held accountable, after all, the rise and fall of the kingdom is a natural law, but once the cultivator uses mortals as pawns to carry out large-scale conquest and slaughter, he will inevitably be unanimously attacked by the cultivation realm.
This kind of rule, no one dared to change it sixteen years ago, let alone anyone dared to touch it, because at that time, the Immortal Monarch was still there, but with the fall of the Lord of the Blue Sky, the entire Blue Sky Domain became impetuous, not only did Dapu have traces of the ancient witch clan, but even the Lord of Nanzhao was no longer afraid of the rules of the cultivation realm, and actually dared to use a large number of mortal armies to fight each other.
Bai Yi sighed helplessly in his heart, with his current strength, he couldn't change the decision of the Lord of Nanzhao at all, but once he cultivated enough, in his eyes, there was no need for Nanzhao Kingdom to exist.
Dare to use countless mortals to fight each other without authorization, this alone, Nangong Leng is a capital crime!
Dissipating the murderous intent in his heart, Bai Yi finally understood what Ni Qiuyu was afraid of, seeing with his own eyes that his relatives were fighting year after year, and the bloodshed year after year, it was definitely not a blow that a gentle girl could withstand.
But any war, there will inevitably be corpses all over the field, Ni Qiuyu was only a teenager when she left Nanzhao, with her kind heart, if she continued to stay in Nanzhao, I am afraid she would not be able to cultivate at all to the current realm.
Ni Qiuyu struggled to stand up, she looked worriedly at the dead leaves on the trees that were about to fall, and said, "Every autumn is the time to fight for the battle city, I want to hurry to the Puyang Palace." ”
Mu Ling nodded, sacrificed an extremely light and thin flying boat magic weapon, carried Bai Yi and Ni Qiuyu, and the three of them flew quickly towards the north.
The fief of the king of Puyang was in the north of the Nanzhao Kingdom.
When the three of them left the small city, Mu Wu pursed his lips and stood up.
A child of the Mu family came over and said with a smile: "Young Master, which prince do we help this time, last time we came to Nanzhao, we got a lot of benefits, this time there is Mu Shisan, we must do a big job." ”
The children of the Mu family who followed Mu Wu to Nanzhao are all warlike people, and the great war between the princes of Nanzhao is exactly what they want, and the Mu family has a great friendship with the lord of Nanzhao, not only allowing the Mu family to wear armor and go into battle to assist a certain prince, even if they are defeated, they will not have to worry about their lives.
Not only can you kill on a large scale, but you can also get a lot of benefits, why not, in the eyes of these Mu families, the war of Nanzhao is just a game of killing for them.
Mu Wu laughed fiercely, his two big hands were clenched loudly, and he shouted: "Since Mu Ling went to assist King Puyang, then we will go and help King Puyang's opponent!"
