Chapter 1316 Sanctuary Reappears

"Crack!" A whip lashed Ji Sheng's back fiercely, a bloodstain was revealed, and the clothes on his back were already torn. If it weren't for the strong physique of the practitioner, Ji Sheng would have been beaten to death. But at this time, life is worse than death!

In the past, Ji Sheng was Ling Yin of the Guzhu Kingdom, equivalent to a prime minister, with a man under one person and over ten thousand people, but now, he is just a prisoner of the Shang Kingdom.

Ji Sheng is still good, but the emperor and prince of Guzhu Kingdom are even more miserable, how miserable is the word.

Two pipa hooks pierced the shoulders of the emperor and prince of the Guzhu Kingdom. The soldiers of the Shang Kingdom in front led the two of them forward like walking dogs.

The cultivation base was sealed, and the ability to commit suicide was also sealed. The emperor of the Guzhu Kingdom regretted it now, why didn't he commit suicide in the first place. However, it was too late!

Next to the emperor of Guzhu Kingdom was the empress, but at this time the empress had dull eyes and her clothes were covered with dirt. Along the way, all the women in the Lone Bamboo Kingdom have not escaped the abuse of the soldiers of the Shang Kingdom, and the Queen is no exception.

When the Emperor of the Guzhu Kingdom ordered those things to be done, he did not deserve any kindness from the Shang Kingdom.

As night fell slowly, the Emperor of the Guzhu Kingdom watched indifferently as the soldiers of the Shang Kingdom dragged away his queen. His dry and miserable cry, like a ghost, was particularly ear-piercing at night. Blood and tears oozed from the corners of the Guzhu Emperor's eyes, but he was helpless. The emperor of the Lone Bamboo Kingdom is constantly 'reviewing' the treatment the citizens of the Shang Kingdom received, as well as their helplessness and anger.

The miserable night ended, and the next morning, there was an exclamation from people, but it was discovered that the Queen of Guzhu Kingdom had committed suicide; taking advantage of the opportunity of being spoiled last night, the Queen of Guzhu Kingdom inserted the soldier's saber into her chest.

But the state of Shang did not end there. The spirit summoner acted immediately, and after a while, a soul was captured from the ground. It was indeed the queen's soul, and it was full of resentment.

After seeing it, the spiritual wizard of Shang Kingdom shook his head and sighed: "I have too much grievance. In order to save you from harming others, I can only do justice for the heavens."

After speaking a spell, the queen of the Lone Bamboo Kingdom was completely dismayed, leaving only a mournful and resentful howl, but it also dispersed with the wind. From then on, the Queen of the Guzhu Kingdom completely disappeared in the world, without even the chance to go to the underworld.

The team continued to move forward. At noon, there was a sudden, shrill and childish cry. The Emperor of the Guzhu Kingdom looked right, but saw his youngest daughter, a girl under ten years old, being dragged out and dragged to the ground next to her. A soldier from a merchant country began to undress happily.

"Beast! Beast!" the emperor of the Lone Bamboo Kingdom roared at the top of his lungs.

Suddenly, an officer from the Shang Kingdom came out, frowning: "What are you doing?"

Several soldiers who were taking off their clothes immediately jumped up: "General, this... that... Isn't it said in the book, repay grievances with straightness, and repay virtue with kindness."

"Oh... Then explain to me, what does it mean to repay a grudge directly?"

"It's direct. We treat others as others treat us."

"Nonsense, let this little girl go. We can't do this."

"General, what you said is wrong, why can't we do it, what the enemy does, we can do it too! It is to tell the enemy, what they do to us, we do to them!

Those beasts in Lone Bamboo Country didn't even spare a three-year-old girl, and even the younger ones fell to the ground and died! What kindness to these beasts! "

The general frowned, finally sighed, turned and left. But after walking a few steps, he finally returned, "Send the little girl back, we will give everyone in Guzhu Kingdom a fair trial according to the law."

Several soldiers finally had to send the little girl back.

Walking in front of the general, the little princess looked up at the general with a miserable face, and said softly, "Thank you."

The general looked down, and finally shook his head and left. Judgments by the laws of the Shang Kingdom are not necessarily light, and the Guzhu Kingdom has gone too far this time.

After a short rest, the team continued to move forward. The nobles of the Guzhu Kingdom were constantly being ravaged and fell down one by one, but the Shang Kingdom still would not let go. Go to Anyang, which is 100,000 miles away; of course, it is impossible to do this all the way, Shang Guo does not have so much time to waste.

In fact, they are occasionally transported by means of teleportation arrays, and only when passing through towns will these people be pulled out to "perform".

However, the misery of the senior officials of the Guzhu country also made the senior officials of other countries feel sorry for them. Some countries that were still planning to abuse the citizens of the Shang country finally had to let go carefully, and only expelled the people of the Shang country.

This is the true meaning of the Shang country's brutal means.

…………

At this time, the people of the four major sects had already started a new action, and had already sent people to quietly contact the holy king of the sanctuary.

Zhuge Qi, the high-ranking elder of Yunxiao Sect, had come to the sanctuary a long time ago and lurked in secret. Ever since the army he led was knocked down by the spiritual energy interference bomb last time, Zhuge Qi hadn't led the army again, but considering Zhuge Qi's ability and so on, he was sent to the Sanctuary, Fertility Shenzhou.

Now, Zhuge Qi received the communication from the headquarters, and immediately got up and headed for the holy capital of the sanctuary.

Zhuge Qi did not go straight to the interior of the holy capital, but walked in through the city gate and observed all the way. During the war between the Holy Land and the Shang Kingdom, the Holy Capital was attacked by sky fire bombs, and even an aerospace aircraft carrier crashed around the Holy Capital.

Now that several years have passed, the holy capital has been rebuilt, but traces of the original battle can still be seen around the holy capital, especially in the east.

An inscription was erected at the location where the aerospace aircraft carrier crashed; there are also two round lakes around it, and there is no grass around them, which are the traces left by the sky fire bombs back then.

The walls in the east of the Holy Capital are obviously newly built, but there are still traces of scorched black on many stones.

However, the holy capital is prosperous. After all, it is the seat of the holy domain. Although the holy domain is now torn apart, the holy capital is still the holy capital. Locomotives, speeding cars, etc. come in and out, and there is no shortage of merchants from the Shang Dynasty here.

"Businessmen from Shang Kingdom!" Zhuge Qi looked at these merchants and sighed. A considerable part of the prosperity of the Shang country is based on commerce.

While walking and watching, Zhuge Qi keenly discovered that most of the products here in Sanctuary are actually from Shang Kingdom! Even some second-hand products from Shangguo are more popular than other products.

Zhuge Qi walked to a second-hand shop by the way, where there were all kinds of magic weapons and computers. Zhuge Qi observed carefully and found that although most of the magic weapons had traces of use, there were almost no problems. The words 95 new, 90 new, and 85 new are also standard on different magic weapons.

"Excuse me, what do you need?" The shopkeeper came over and introduced enthusiastically: "It is the most cost-effective to buy second-hand magic weapons from Shangguo. The products of Shangguo are of excellent quality. No problem at all.

In addition, the industry of Shang country is developed, and the magic weapons are updated so fast that many magic weapons are not even used much.

Look at this flying sword, Binghuo No. 12, 95 new, produced by Jiuchongtian Group, Binghuo series flying sword, this is a product from the beginning of this year, very new, hardly used much.

In the country of Shang, the price of this flying sword is 50 taels of gold, and a brand new flying sword sent to the sanctuary needs more than 80 taels of gold. But here, as long as 23 taels of gold is enough, if you want to change it in the future, we can still recycle it here. "

Zhuge Qi's eyes flashed brightly, "The quality is really good. This flying sword is still very new. Why was it abandoned? Cultivators need to accumulate magic weapons. Even if the Shang country's magic weapons are updated too quickly, as a cultivator, you should not use them too often." Replace the talisman."

"Ah, you are really asking the right person. I have been to Shang country, you don't know, Shang country is now practicing the inner alchemy of the Lingtai, and people pay attention to themselves, and the magic weapon is just a support. For Shang country It is said that a magic weapon is a tool, a tool that can be discarded at any time.

But the most important thing among them should be the price of the magic weapon. The large-scale industrial production of Shangguo has made the price of the magic weapon extremely low.

In addition, guns, not magic weapons, are used most in Shang countries. "

Just as he was talking, someone suddenly came over, and this person smelled like blood all over his body. Zhuge Qi frowned slightly, this man looked like a battle-hardened man, and his position was not low.

Sure enough, the owner of the shop immediately greeted him: "It turns out to be Head Gao, what does Head Gao want this time?"

"Ninety percent new protective gear and flying swords. There are a lot of them. I'll go to the warehouse to pick them out. There are also armor-piercing bullets. Give me five tons."

"Okay!" The store owner cheered excitedly, and took the head Gao to the back, and when he passed by Zhuge Qi, he apologized and said he would come out soon.

After a while, the store owner came back and continued talking to Zhuge Qi.

Of course, Zhuge Qi would not let go of such a source of information, asking about the head of the Gao just now, and also inquiring about the situation of merchants from the Shang Kingdom here and in the holy capital of the holy area.

"Captain Gao is the head of the Black Iron Mercenary Group. They mainly participate in wars between countries and accept war missions. However, there is a saying that these mercenary groups that accept war missions are actually in the sanctuary. The elites cultivated, as long as they are gathered together, they can become a powerful force."

"Oh... are you leaking secrets?"

"It's no secret. Well, what do you need?"

Zhuge Qi looked around and said: "Give me three sets of magic weapons.

The first set must be more than 90% new, and the best quality should be selected.

The second set, all half-worn, of medium quality, but practical enough.

The third set is the cheapest and the cheapest, but it must also be practical enough. "

It's a weird request, but it's okay, the store doesn't care about it, maybe this person has a quirk. Soon three sets of magic weapons were selected, and each set included helmet, armor, skirt, gauntlets, leggings, bracelets, and boots. In addition, some have shields, some have swords, and some have spears, but all have very good practicality.

"A total of 6500 taels of gold. The cost of the first set is as high as 4000 taels, the second set is as high as 1800 taels, and the third set is only 700 taels of gold. Are you satisfied?"

"Very good!" Zhuge Qi handed over the gold, stuffed three sets of magic weapons into the storage ring, and left. Afterwards, Zhuge Qi went straight to the palace to meet the Holy King.

Only a moment later, Zhuge Qi saw the Holy King. Zhuge Qi narrowed his eyes the first time he saw the Holy King. This holy king is domineering and calm, definitely not the attitude of a defeated man.

It's a hero! That's right, only such a holy king can affect the battle situation!

Zhuge Qi tidied up his clothes and lowered his head slightly: "The elder of Haozhou Yunxiao Sect, Zhuge Qi, has met the Holy King."

The Holy King bowed his head slightly: "It belongs to the four major sects, so if you have anything to say, just say it."

Zhuge Qi smiled slightly, and changed the subject: "Holy King, I found a good place in the Holy City, and bought three gifts by the way, and I want to present it to the Holy King."

The Holy King narrowed his eyes: "What is it?"

Zhuge Qi opened the storage ring and released three boxes; the vigilant guards next to him came to open the boxes, but saw three sets of magic weapons.

The holy king looked at the three sets of magic weapons, but he didn't understand what Zhuge Qi meant. The three sets of magic weapons were very ordinary, especially one of them was dusty, as if it had been pulled out from a certain corner.

It's not like a gift, it's more like a mockery. The holy king showed displeasure: "Zhuge Qi, what do you mean?"

Zhuge Qi sighed: "Your Majesty the Holy King, I bought this from a small shop in the Holy Capital..."

As he said that, Zhuge Qi described the situation he encountered just now, and finally concluded: "The rubbish that is not even needed by the Shang Kingdom can sell so well, what does the Holy King think?"

The Holy King understood Zhuge Qi's meaning, "Shang Kingdom is really scary right now."

Then what? Zhuge Qi looked at the holy king, but found that the holy king didn't have a second sentence; that won't work, what I want is the second sentence. Zhuge Qi guided carefully: "Your Majesty, the terror of the Shang country comes from the continuous development of the Shang country. If we can curb the development of the Shang country, then we can wear down the Shang country little by little and win the final victory."

Speaking of this, the Holy King must also express his opinion. After a moment of hesitation, the Holy King finally said: "It is not easy to curb the development of the Shang country. After so many years, if you can curb the development of the Shang country, why wait until now!"

"Your Majesty, in fact, it is very simple to curb the development of the Shang country. The Shang country is based on commerce. As long as the business of the Shang country is cut off, so that the products of the Shang country cannot be sold, everything will be easy."

"Really? But why did my king hear that the Cultivation Alliance is in a financial crisis recently, and it seems that all countries are facing the danger of military mutiny and national disintegration?"

"Cough..." Zhuge Qi was a little embarrassed. This matter was indeed due to the lack of consideration of the Cultivation Alliance. I didn't expect Shang Guo to have such a method; however, Zhuge Qi also had an argument. "Holy King, I admit that we made mistakes in our operations, but we didn't gain nothing at all. A large number of merchants in the Shang Kingdom were driven away, and the commercial system of the Shang Kingdom was severely damaged.

If the country of Shang is a towering tree, then the merchants and the commercial system are the roots of the tree covering the country of Shang; now that we have cut off these roots, even if the country of Shang can still prosper, how long can it last? ! "

The Holy King didn't answer immediately, but after pondering for a long time, he asked again: "The business network of the Shang Kingdom, through teleporters, etc., is almost all over the fairyland, and it is still wishful thinking to want to cut off the business system of the Shang Kingdom.

Besides, the Shang Kingdom also has the Ancient Sacred Realm and the Phantom Spirit Realm. Especially the Phantom Spirit Realm, which is a big world, even if the Shang Kingdom only leaves the business channel of the Phantom Spirit Realm, it is enough to support the operation of the Shang Kingdom. "

"But the development time of the Phantom Spirit World is too short after all, and the Shang country will not have a strong foundation. Also, if the interests of a large number of merchants in the Shang country are damaged, it will inevitably lead to internal chaos in the Shang country!

Emphasis on merchants and commerce is the characteristic and strength of a Shang country, but it is also precisely its weakness. Merchants value profits, and if the merchant country cannot guarantee the interests of the merchants, it must be alienated from morality!

The merchants of the Shang Kingdom have too much power, ability, and influence. Once these merchants are unstable, the Shang Kingdom will also fall apart! "

When the Holy King heard this, contempt flashed deep in his eyes—this is the strategy of your Cultivation Alliance. It is really empty, and a little irrational and too idealistic. But the Holy King thought about it and made a decision:

"How about this, because the sky above the sanctuary is full of sky fire bombs and sky punishment bombs, we dare not act rashly, we can only join your war by the method of 'employment'.

Previously, quite a few experts from the sanctuary had joined the Cultivation Alliance in this way. But this time, I am going to open up the Earth Immortal and Sanxian masters.

You can go to the mercenary guild in the sanctuary to issue war missions; the price of cooperation between us will be paid in the form of mission rewards. "

"Okay!" Zhuge Qi agreed straight away, this was already the best result. In fact, Zhuge Qi and the Cultivation Alliance never thought that Sanctuary would be able to support them openly and aboveboard. Without him, only Shang Guo would know how many sky fire bombs and sky punishment bombs there are above the sanctuary.

Zhuge Qi resigned and immediately went to the mercenary guild in Sanctuary; unlike the "Adventure and Mercenary Association" in Shang Kingdom, the mercenary guild in Sanctuary has many characteristics of its own.

First of all, the Sanctuary's mercenary guild was established when the Sanctuary was dismembered and facing destruction. It was the roar of the folk masters in the Sanctuary, and of course the support of the upper echelons of the Sanctuary.

Secondly, in the Shang Dynasty, there are "associations", which are more free; while in the sanctuary, there are "guilds", which have become an informal government organization that is neither officially recognized nor denied.

Thirdly, the mercenary guild also has another important duty, which is to train soldiers and train masters. This is already an alternative military organization.

Fourth, and most importantly, the Mercenary Association was established in accordance with the rules of the game in the Shang Kingdom.

After Zhuge Qi entered the headquarters of the Holy Capital Mercenary Guild, he immediately received countless salutations. Here, there are even merchants from the Shang Kingdom, etc. The mercenary guild is open after all, and it is quite normal that there are people from the Shang Kingdom here.

Under the attention of thousands of eyes, Zhuge Qi came to the task release window and handed in a task entrustment.

After a while, the mercenary guild became lively, because a brand new, unlimited task appeared: destroy all the transportation facilities of the merchant country, including teleportation arrays, airports, planes, etc. The remuneration is very generous, even including allotment of land for the king!
