Chapter 28 Night trial Peng Peiao
On the way back, Zuo Qing asked Hou Liang suspiciously: "Brother Liang, how strong is the Iron Eagle Country?"
Hou Liang looked at Feng Yihui, Lu Qifeng, etc., who had just been frightened, and then looked at Zuo Qing, Mi Li, Lin Kaihan and others, who were still calm from beginning to end, and said with a smile: "Hehe, it's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers!"
"What do you mean by that?"
Hou Liang said: "The Iron Eagle Country should be the most powerful empire in the world today!"
"What? Isn't the most powerful empire in the world today the Heavenly Treasure Kingdom on the Eastern Continent?"
"It's not. Although the Tianbao Empire is extremely powerful, unifying the entire Eastern Continent, and is called the Celestial Empire by the world, it still cannot be compared in front of the Iron Eagle Country. The Iron Eagle Kingdom does not have a fixed territory, and it can be said that all the seas are their territory, and they are the rulers of this world. ”
Zuo Qing has always thought that the Tianbao Empire is the most powerful country in the world, and the Zou Jie Kingdom and Wanbei Xuejiang here are just small border countries, but he didn't expect that there was also a maritime empire.
Hou Liang continued: "I am afraid that the only country that can compete with the Iron Eagle Country is the Bear Man Country back then. ”
"No, there was also the former Black Dragon Empire, and the really powerful one was their common ancestor, the Dongsheng Empire. Lin Kaihan said solemnly.
Hou Liang nodded, "That's right! After the Bear Eagle War, both sides were defeated, and only the Black Dragon Empire was able to start a war with the Bear and the Eagle at the same time, and finally the Bear Man Kingdom perished, and the remnants of the Iron Eagle Country fled to the sea, and the Black Dragon Empire became a powerful dynasty that unified the entire continent again after the Dongsheng Empire, and Mingkong Zhenren ascended the throne, and she was also the first female emperor in history for hundreds of millions of years. ”
"It's a pity that the Black Dragon Empire failed to last for tens of thousands of years like the Dongsheng Empire, after the empress Mingkong Zhenren soared, corruption within the empire breeded, and the grand situation went down, and finally split again, one faction is called the Dragon Slayer faction, the other is called the Dragon Zun faction, and the two sides are in dispute. In the end, the Dragon Slayer Sect Master split the Shenfu River with a sword, the heavens and the earth were vast, the stars were dim, the continents were separated, and the land under our feet was forcibly split into a new continent. Lin Kaihan added.
"Xinmang Continent?!" Zuo Qingdao said.
Lin Kaihan nodded.
Hou Liang exclaimed: "Xiaolin, how do you know so much about history?"
Lin Kaihan smiled: "I read a lot!"
Hou Liang was speechless, Lin Kaihan continued: "Later, it was divided into the Eastern Continent and the Xinmang Continent, the Dragon Slayer faction won, changed the name of the country to the Tianbao Empire, and took the meaning of Hua Tianbao and outstanding people, some of the other opponents were killed, some fled overseas, and some went to the Xinmang Continent, including the ancestor of Feng Gongzi - Feng Wanxiang. ”
"This is all history, if no one records these histories, won't they be slowly lost, and how will future generations know about them?" Zuo Qing couldn't help but sigh.
Hou Liang looked at Zuo Qing and said with a smile: "Old brother, you really look like a historian, haha." ”
Feng Qiuyao said suddenly: "Yes, I think that when the situation is stabilized, I can let the old brother enter the court as an official and write the history of my Zou Jie country, what does my brother think?"
Feng Yihui smiled but did not speak.
That night, everything returned to calm, and everyone rested.
Zuo Qing and Mi Li Yamu returned to the room, but Zuo Qing refused to rest, Mi Li asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?"
Zuo Qing shook his head, "Madam, I'm going to talk to Peng Peiao." ”
Mi Li said: "What are you talking about?"
Zuo Qing looked at Mi Li, didn't speak, and walked out of the room directly.
Mi Li seemed to understand and followed behind Zuo Qing.
Peng Peiao was lying in the cage dying, at this moment he had lost all will, and the only thing waiting for him was death, but he didn't know when that moment would come.
Therefore, Peng Peiao doesn't care about anyone's arrival, or passing by. But Zuo Qing is an exception, this person who can expose his lies, see through his deception, and is not controlled by his illusions, is like a nail, directly nailing Peng Peiao's soul.
Seeing the arrival of Zuo Qing and his wife, Peng Peiao struggled to lift his front half of his body from the cage.
Zuo Qing looked at the panicked look of the big mouse and smiled, "I'm here to talk to you." "At the same time, he sat next to the cage.
Mi Li stood aside, playing with his braids with both hands, and looked at Zuo Qing with affection, tears in his eyes.
Peng Peiao didn't know if it was because of the serious injury or because of mental fear, he was a little timid, "Talk, what are you talking about?"
Zuo Qing stretched out an arm and tried to run his energy in his body, and when the energy was condensed, he saw that the black smoke on Zuo Qing's arm seemed to linger in the pores, Zuo Qing's face was already distorted in pain, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead.
Mi Li hurriedly helped him wipe the sweat from his face in distress, "It's okay, don't want it." ”
Zuo Qing stopped running his energy, his expression gradually returned to calm, and the black smoke looming between his pores disappeared without a trace.
Peng Peiao saw it in his eyes, and he was already frightened, "This, this, this, wilting smoke?"
Zuo Qing nodded, "That's right, I have long been poisoned by the wilting smoke, when I was in my hometown, I witnessed the rampant smoke chasing and killing the prince Feng Yihui, killing all the people in our entire village, and I was the only survivor." ”
"The poison of the wilting smoke in his body can still - immortal - " Peng Peiao's voice trembled obviously, as if he couldn't listen to what Zuo Qing said, and his mind was full of panic and fear.
Zuo Qing clenched his fists, "Let me ask you, where did this wilting smoke come from, and why can your demon clan use the wilting smoke?"
Peng Peiao was terrified, "I don't know, I don't know, I don't know......"
Mi Li's eyes were round, releasing the pressure of the Tianhai Realm, although Peng Peiao's realm was higher, but the exercises were broken, he was seriously injured, he had no power to resist, and it was difficult to breathe in shock.
Peng Peiao shouted with all his might: "Spare your life, spare your life, I say, I say-"
Mi Li withdrew the pressure, Peng Pei was proud for a long time, and said slowly: "I really don't know what's going on with the rampant smoke-"
"Dare to play slippery?" Mi Li had already formed a wind blade in his hand.
Peng Peiao hurriedly said: "I don't know the specifics, I only know some rumors-"
"Say!" Miri withdrew his wind blade.
Peng Pei said proudly: "This wilting smoke is a strange poison outside the sky, there is nothing in our world, there are things from the other world, needless to say that our ordinary demon clan monks, that is, the nine demon kings, and even the three saints of the demon clan back then, there may be no way to control it." ”
"Still talking nonsense?" Mili scolded.
Zuo Qing stopped Mi Li and said to Peng Peiao: "But I saw the spread of wilting smoke with my own eyes. And you are using the wilting smoke to hunt down Feng Yihui. ”
Peng Peiao said: "That's right, we are using the wilting smoke, but we can't control it, we-" Peng Peiao hesitated a little, but looked at Zuo Qing and Mi Li's expressions, as long as he continued, "We found that the ice eggplant fragrance and the wilting smoke have a mutual attraction characteristic, so we just use the ice eggplant fragrance to control the wilting smoke, so that the wilting smoke can spread according to our wishes......"
"Ice eggplant?" Miri exclaimed.
Peng Peiao said: "However, we can only guide the direction like this, as for where the wilting smoke came from, we don't know, maybe only the Nine Great Demon Kings know." ”
"Wilting Smoke came from another world, how did you bring it from the other world?" asked Mili sternly.
"I really don't know this, maybe—maybe the Nine Demon Kings know, after all, people are leaders. Peng Pei said proudly.
Zuo Qing asked, "Poisonous Mother, is it one of them?"
Peng Pei said proudly: "Yes, but the Poison Mother King is not in charge of the rampant smoke. ”
"I know, we've already met face-to-face. Zuo Qingdao.
"What?" Peng Peiao said in surprise, "Have you ever seen the Poison Mother?"
"Yes. Zuo Qing nodded, "And we also seriously injured her, do you know where she has gone now? Won't she also go to the Pure Mountain Sect?" Zuo Qing asked tentatively.
Peng Peiao said: "No, the Heaven Sacrifice Conference will start immediately, and she won't go to any meeting of your human race." ”
"What kind of heaven worship conference?" Zuo Qing suddenly became alert.
Peng Peiao felt like he had said something, but he couldn't take it back, and he was hesitant for a while, and under the oppression of Zuo Qing and Mi Li, he had to continue: "It's not a secret that the Heaven Sacrifice Conference is about to be held, and when the time is approaching, the border towns of Zou Jie Country should also receive the news." ”
"Tell me, what the hell is going on?" Miri scolded.
Peng Peiao said: "As we all know, the current Emperor Zou Jieguo is mediocre and incompetent, and my mother and the prime minister are responsible for major affairs in the court, so the emperor also has the intention of giving up the throne to Niangniang through the sacrifice to the heavens, is that the case?"
"When is the Celestial Festival held?" asked Miri.
Peng Peiao said: "The sixth day of the sixth month of June. ”
