Chapter 698 Heading to Sand Valley

The two accompanied Wu Zhongyuan to leave the brothel, and Wu Zhongyuan did not go anywhere else. He originally wanted to stay one night in Yinma River, but after pondering, he changed his mind. After bidding farewell to the two of them, he disappeared into the sky and headed for Daze.

Daze is not far from the Yinma River. By the time Wu Zhongyuan arrived at the city lord's residence, it was already midnight. Wu Qin was still waiting in the hall. When he sent someone to send Wu Qing back, he did not indicate when he would come. Worried that he would be rejected when he came, Wu Qin kept waiting in the main hall.

The relationship between Wu Zhongyuan and Wu Qin is relatively complicated. They are both son-in-law and emperor. When Wu Zhongyuan was in danger, Wu Qin took the risk to provide him with asylum. However, Wu Qin also persuaded Wu Zhongyuan to accept the reality and not try to compete for the throne of Wu. Bit.

When dealing with multiple identities, you cannot just choose one of them. The two are both son-in-law and emperor and minister. Wu Qin has both kindness and fault for him. Wu Zhongyuan determines the relationship between the two in this way, which is impartial, objective and fair.

Wu Zhongyuan accepted Wu Qin's courtesy as a monarch, but he did not sit in the main seat. After the two sat down, they talked about family affairs first and then state affairs. However, Wu Qin was not a minister of the Six Ministries, so Wu Zhongyuan did not talk too much about matters beyond the scope of his responsibilities. And, the focus of the discussion between the two was the details of the imperial edict to the eighteen warriors.

It is already the seventh day of September, and there are only more than three months left before the end of the year. This matter cannot be postponed any longer and must be put on the agenda as soon as possible. Although our side now has a large number of dark iron weapons, only ten can automatically replenish spiritual energy. Eight psychic weapons, seventeen to be exact, because the Leopard Dragon Ax has not yet been found.

The Psychic Divine Weapon was the weapon used by the eighteen half-human warriors who followed Fu Xi to pacify the Six Paths. It has a strong symbolic meaning. Re-consecrating the eighteen warriors is equivalent to announcing to the outside world that the situation has been established and destiny has been fulfilled.

There are a total of eighteen psychic weapons, nine each of yin and yang. Except for the leopard and dragon ax, yang weapons, five of the remaining eight have their owners. The ox-dragon mace is used by Wu Qin, the yin-dragon stick is used by Gao Zhan, and the turtle-dragon shield In Zhulang's hands, the Tiger-Dragon Pickaxe was rewarded to the Yi people, while the Horned Dragon Halberd was in the hands of Zhu Qianwei. In addition to these five psychic weapons that already had owners, there were also the Snake-Dragon Hammer and the Lion-Dragon Rake. , the three psychic weapons of Yulongcha have been found, but have not yet been sent out by Wu Zhongyuan.

All nine Yin magic weapons have been found. Except for the carved phoenix spear, the heron and phoenix hook, and the pheasant and phoenix claws, the remaining six have their own owners. The Phoenix Spear belongs to Jiang Dahua, the Pengfeng Whip belongs to Wu Di, the Yanfeng Bow belongs to Li Wanzi, and the Phoenix Suo belongs to Aluo.

Who should be rewarded for these six unowned psychic weapons? Wu Zhongyuan wanted to hear Wu Qin’s opinion, but Wu Qin did not express his opinion on this. He only suggested that Wu Zhongyuan must be cautious. The psychic weapons are no better than other things. , once it is given out, the identity of the recipient is solidified, and no matter what mistakes are made in the future, it cannot be taken back, otherwise the symbolic meaning of the psychic weapon will be lost.

Wu Zhongyuan strongly agrees with Wu Qin's statement. You must know that in addition to rewarding psychic weapons,

He also prepared eighteen sets of indestructible black iron armor. The black iron used to make the tortoise armor came from the sinkhole where Dasha lived. It came from the same piece of black iron as the Yin Yang sword he used. Man, the consequences are disastrous.

At the fourth watch, the two left the main hall. The final result of the discussion was that if necessary, these people who had obtained the psychic weapons could be consecrated first, and at the same time, it was announced to the outside world that the imperial court had obtained all the psychic weapons, but the owners had not yet been determined. , waiting for the remaining seven masters of the auxiliary Golden Dragon Divine Weapon to appear.

When Wu Zhongyuan arrived, Wu Qing had already gone to bed and shared the same room with his mother. After Wu Zhongyuan arrived, he did not notify her and slept in Wu Qing's own room after coming out of the main hall.

After being promoted to Tai Ling, Wu Zhongyuan no longer needs sleep. He can sleep when he wants to sleep, and he can't sleep if he doesn't want to sleep. The reason why people need sleep is because they need sleep to restore energy and physical strength, which is equivalent to recharging the battery. After being promoted to Tai Ling, he can By absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish your daily energy and physical strength, this process can be done anytime and anywhere.

The day after tomorrow was the ninth day of September, and Wu Zhongyuan was very worried that something would happen to Wang Xinran and Wu Di when they were looking for and snatching the demon-proofing musk. He had nothing important to do at the moment, so he could go to the rescue to ensure nothing went wrong.

But after thinking for a long time, I finally suppressed the idea of ​​​​going to Mobei. It is good for those who can work more, but you cannot just work for those who are capable. The most important thing is that after the five seals disappear, war will definitely spread on all sides. , even if he has great ability, he can't be distracted. He has to let go when it's time to let go.

In the early morning of the next day, Wu Zhongyuan attended the morning meeting in Daze. When the big leaders came, they always had to hold a meeting to meet with the people below. After the morning meeting, I walked around Daze in the company of Wu Qin. When leaders go to places, they always want to observe and investigate. This time we visited two places, one is the war preparation cave. I have to admit that Wu Laoer Due to his great achievements, the refuge cave in Daze was large enough to provide shelter for the entire city in the event of war.

There is also a grain field of 100-day rice. Daze is a city where 100-day rice was planted relatively early. It has accumulated enough experience and fertilized and watered. The 100-day rice grows well, and the security work is also very good. In addition to a large number of Guard, Osawa also adopted a mixed planting method. The first hundred steps are the hundred-day rice that is about to mature, and the last hundred steps are the hundred-day rice that has just headed. The sowing time is staggered to widen the time difference. There are two ways to do this. The advantage is that one can harvest one more time before it snows, and the other is that it can prevent the enemy from setting fire. Even if the enemy sets fire and destroys it, it can only burn a hundred steps of corn at most. The corn that is burned to the edge is in the growing stage. This The straw used to grow corn has a high water content and cannot be burned.

Wu Zhongyuan greatly appreciated Wu Qin's approach, and at the same time he issued an order to be widely promoted. Later emperors would bring many people with them when they went on tour. There were always people around the emperor to record the orders, but Wu Zhongyuan liked to follow the orders easily and simply. It was Wu Qin who recorded and used the letter bird to send it back to the court.

After lunch, Wu Zhongyuan chatted with Wu Qin for a while, talking about the full autonomy of Yinma River and Daze's withdrawal of guards at Yinma River. In the afternoon, Shen Shi decided to leave. Wu Qing had not returned to her parents' home since she got married, so she let him go. She stayed in Daze for a while longer.

After leaving Daze, Wu Zhongyuan wanted to go to Mobei again. The demon musk was of great importance. If Wang Xinran, Wu Di and others failed, there would be endless troubles.

But if he rushes there in person, it means that he does not believe in Wang Xinran and Wu Di's ability to do things.

After hesitation, he decided to go quietly, hide in the distance, and observe from a distance. If everyone on his side successfully obtained the demon-proof musk, they would not show up. If an accident occurs, we will deal with it.

I made up my mind and headed north.

Since I was not in a hurry, when I went north I took the opportunity to practice and try out the various superpowers that would be born after becoming a Tailing. The main thing I tried was flying in the clouds and riding on the mist. The gods in later generations can fly in the clouds and riding on the mist, and so can he. However, flying in the clouds and riding in the mist is a bit flashy, because the gods The clouds and mists they drive are all generated by the condensation of their own spiritual energy. They have no use except to look good. They have no supporting role and no acceleration effect. In fact, even if the clouds and mists are not generated, the gods can still control the air in the sky, but It's a bit mysterious, not as mysterious as flying in the clouds and riding in the mist.

Unless you experience some things personally, you will never understand the reasons for them. Finding that the Flying Clouds and the Mists have no use other than being beautiful, Wu Zhongyuan instinctively raised questions. Since the Flying Clouds and the Mists have no practical use, why do the gods of later generations like them?

There are two reasonable answers. One is that for the sake of sensationalism, it is hard to achieve immortality without shocking the world and being unconventional. How can one's vanity be satisfied? If you don't make people exclaim when you show up and don't worship, wouldn't it be a lot less fun to be a god?

There is another possibility that the gods of later generations did not soar in the clouds and ride the mist. The legend of soaring in the clouds and riding the mist is just a figment of the imagination of future generations. This possibility is relatively high. As the saying goes, the real person does not show his face, and the appearance is not the real person. The real god will not show his face easily. He doesn't care what the world thinks of him, and he won't easily communicate with the world. The reason is very simple. The higher his cultivation level and his knowledge, the more he is separated from the masses. It's not that gods take the initiative to keep a distance from mortals, but that mortals can't understand it. The thoughts and realms of gods cannot communicate and communicate.

Wu Zhongyuan did not take the old route this time, but moved several hundred miles westward. He has always had this habit. Although the Central Plains region is not as big as modern countries, it is still very vast. He has never set foot in most areas, and even He has never been to many Yuancheng cities. As long as he is on the road, he will take the opportunity to inspect more areas.

Not long after walking, I suddenly found a huge yellow sheep lying dead on the hill below. There was a simple thatched hut not far from the yellow sheep's body.

Because the yellow sheep was too big, about the size of a bull, Wu Zhongyuan stopped going north and landed to check.

Looking closely at the movement, his brows furrowed. The yellow sheep had obviously died unexpectedly. Its intestines had been disemboweled and blood flowed all over the floor. It looked like it had been dead for a long time. Since the temperature was relatively high in summer and autumn, the yellow sheep's body was Already stinky and infested with maggots.

Leaving the body and inspecting the thatched cottage, I found that there was no pot or stove in the thatched cottage, and there were no living utensils. There was only a sleeping place covered with hay and a clay pot filled with water. This yellow sheep should have been able to transform into a human form. The thatched hut is also a shelter built by it. There is a lot of hay drying around the thatched hut, which must be the winter fodder prepared by the yellow sheep for itself.

Here, far away from the crowd, this yellow sheep feeds on grass and is indifferent to the world. It is so innocent that it was killed and disemboweled.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and sighed. The disadvantages of the Hunyuan Cauldron had begun to appear. The killings had been going on, but he didn't notice it.

After sighing, Wu Zhongyuan extended his spiritual energy, broke the ground into a pit, buried the body of the yellow sheep, then lifted off the ground and continued northward.

In the evening, we left the border of the Central Plains and came to the old site of Yinma River. Since Black Widow and others had moved the city south, it had already become an empty city.

Just when Wu Zhongyuan was about to continue heading north towards Sha Valley, he suddenly heard the sound of a woman crying and begging for mercy coming from a house in the city...
