Crossing, strategy, picking up morals

Chapter 40

Beidi country.

It is located in a wild frontier town, bordering the most prosperous Beizhao Kingdom.In the sky full of yellow sand, there stands a tavern. It is said to be a tavern, but it is not necessarily true. It is just a straw broom, and a white flag is hung outside the house. People who do business from afar will tie their horses to rest after a long journey. Let's go for a while.Those are wandering businessmen, they go to many places on weekdays, and naturally know more, and they will inevitably show off their knowledge in front of good people.

A jug of wine, a plate of cooked beef, and a few small dishes of side dishes to go with the wine.

Here, even the secrets of the royal family can be heard a thing or two.

The smell of scalded wine was so strong that it was almost choking. The strong man picked up the earthenware bowl and drank it in one gulp. He was not afraid of getting red in the face, and when he wiped the oil on his mouth, even the emperor's old man would dare to shake out.

"I heard that the concubine of Nanhuang Kingdom committed adultery with her cousin, and the emperor wore a green hat, but he dared not speak out. Who would let that powerful minister control the government?" The purple-skinned, broad-breasted man dropped his wine glass , "The emperor was fooled... Tsk tsk, if my mother-in-law is like this, see if I don't beat her to death!"

"What's this?" The man in the blue double-breasted face was also hot from drinking, and he glanced at him, "The major event in the world today is all about Bei Zhao." He burped, and the hot smell of alcohol came out of his mouth He tossed and said, "The King Chu of Beizhao is a truly charming and romantic character!"

"King Chu? Wasn't that King Chu kicked out of the throne and sent away to Liguo?" The man was dizzy from drinking, and the chopsticks in his hand were tapped on the plate, but he didn't pick up the peanuts on the plate for a long time. "I heard that The current emperor of Beizhao did this because he was afraid that such an obscene person would mess up the court."

"Hey, this is the old almanac from 800 years ago!"

"How do you say that?" The chopsticks in his hand were thrown down.

The person who brought up this topic held the wine glass unhurriedly, squinted his eyes and took a sip, "The King of Chu was sent away for half a year, and Bei Zhao sent troops."

"What's so strange about that?"

"You don't know that, do you?" He pulled the bench under his buttocks and sat back a little, "The prince of Liguo has usurped the throne for the sake of the king of Chu, and he doesn't even want his new concubine. Take the King of Chu alone in the harem. King Beizhao regretted it, and wanted to take King Chu back, but the crown prince refused, so wouldn't it be a fight?"

The man looked suspicious, "According to what you said, it was all provoked by the King of Chu?"

"That's right. Although Li Guo is in decline, the land is small and the people are sparse. Bei Zhao mobilized troops to attack, and if he wins, he may not be able to gain any benefits."

The observer became interested and urged him to continue.

"I don't know what the king of Chu looked like when he was born. He is a good man, but he caused trouble like that." Those who knew sighed.

Someone sighed, "Then Bei Zhao fought Li Guo, what was the result?"

"What else can I do? Naturally, Bei Zhao won."

"Then the King of Chu returned to Beizhao?" one person asked.

"No and no." The man deliberately paused in the middle of the sentence, and then said, "The King of Chu is also a tough character. martyred..."

"Hey!" A person interrupted him, "How did I hear that he was forced by the Beizhao army to jump into the city and commit suicide?"

He jumped at the table, "You... Who are you talking about!"

"Of course I heard from someone who knows." The person who interjected was also a heroic person, which made the person who had just taken the case a little timid, "Emperor Beizhao wanted to take him back, and those generals knelt down under the city. He was forced by fate, saying that he would execute that evildoer, and King Beizhao had no choice but to force him to jump out of the city."

"I heard that Bei Zhao vomited blood after returning to the court, and issued an order saying that the king of Chu should be buried in the imperial tomb."

"Imperial Mausoleum? Isn't he afraid that those ancestors will come back to life seeing the popularity of the King of Chu?" He stared with contempt on his face, "Such an idiot! As a man, but he serves the emperor with sex, I'm sorry!"

"If you say this in Beizhao, your head will be beheaded." He glanced over coldly.

The man was frightened for a moment, remembering that he was in this unintentional land, he immediately stiffened again, shouted a few times but no one listened again.

"In the end, the king of Chu was not buried in the imperial tomb." The man said with a dark voice, "I heard that when the tomb was sealed, a white thing ran out, and when I went in, the king of Chu in the coffin was gone. gone."

The person listening next to him stared, "What is that white thing?"

"It's probably a thousand-year-old vixen, and the king of Chu is what he turned into..." The man only spoke halfway, when the tightly sealed door was suddenly pushed open, and the gust of wind mixed with yellow sand suddenly Scraped in.

The person who walked in was a man in white clothes and white hair. His face was rare for a businessman who had been in business for many years. It was as white as ice and snow, and only his lips were still a little bloody.

The entire lobby was suddenly silent.

He hardly saw any movement, and he had already appeared in front of the shopkeeper who was lying on the counter to settle the accounts.

"Ten catties of cooked beef, is there any?"

His voice was as cold as he was.

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, looking at the man's silver pupils, panicking in his heart, he pulled the waiter and said, "Hurry up and cut ten catties of cooked beef for the guest officer!" Then he smiled obsequiously at the man, looked at the man With a cold look on his face, he couldn't laugh anymore, "Guest officer, wait a moment—"

The man who had cut the meat came over.

The man stretched out his hand, and the man handed over the wrapped beef tremblingly.

The man put down a silver coin, turned and left.

The wind was blowing gravel outside, and the entire sky was a dull khaki.That person disappeared into the chaotic sky just like when he came...

It took a long time for the person sitting in the lobby to say with a pale face, "Monster... a monster!"

The one who is called a monster is naturally Chu Qinghuang. He left Beizhao after he jumped out of the imperial mausoleum. The cheating peerless master suit that the system gave him has a dyeing function. Go against the sky, okay? If it wasn't for Chu Qinghuang's face, I would have thrown the mirror and said that the system had done plastic surgery without permission!

Ever since he left Beizhao all the way and came to this place that is a hundred times poorer than Liguo, he didn't even eat the green peel fruit. Although it was cool to be blessed with amazing martial arts, but after a few meals, he couldn't feel happy at all. .It's okay to eat black horses for nothing, this is life, okay? Compared with the days when I stretched out my hands to eat and opened my mouth in the palace clothes, the current life is almost full of tears.

A bonfire had already been lit behind the sheltered stone wall, Chu Qinghuang opened the still warm oiled paper bag, and began to gnaw on the cooked beef in a very bitter way.

The place he is going to is Beidi Kingdom.

The people of Beidi believe in witches and gods, and there are Miaojiang sacrifices to confuse the people, so some imperial power has been lost, and a cult called Huanxi Sect has become rampant.

This Huanxi Cult advocates the love of men and women, and the congregants understand all kinds of poisons. There are countless congregants. A few months ago, the Huanxi Cult's congregation abducted many women from the martial arts. Some grew up in martial arts families, and some came out to practice The daughter of the aristocratic family, now being taken captive by such a notorious sect as the Huanxi Cult, naturally aroused public indignation in the world.

Chu Qinghuang is here to eradicate evil and promote good!The premise of eliminating evil and promoting good is that the leader of the martial arts alliance is—Chi!ink!

When Chu Qinghuang heard the news, he was in Sparta. How could he attack the characters who became so cool?

So with blood on his face, he prepared to break the Huanxi Cult, rescue those girls who had stumbled, and then get the appreciation of the martial arts leader, promote justice and go to the pinnacle of life.

Just thinking about it makes me feel so sad.

Is it possible to live a good life just after crawling out of the grave?Non-stop running to Beidi country as far away as that to eliminate evil and promote good.

Just to brush up the remaining 40% favorability.

The dark clouds in the sky gathered and scattered, Chu Qinghuang looked up and sighed when he saw the heavy sky.

Damn it's going to storm again.

Covering the bonfire with sand, and throwing the leftover cooked beef aside, Chu Qinghuang got up to determine the direction of the journey, tiptoed, and the whole person broke through the wind like an arrow, and headed towards the direction of Beidi...

It was already dark when they arrived at the imperial city of Beidi Kingdom, and the city gate was closed tightly covered by a layer of wind and sand. Chu Qinghuang looked up and saw the lights on above, but there were no patrolling soldiers.

Beidi Kingdom is half the size of Li Kingdom, and it is naturally impossible to be too heavily guarded because it is located in such a windy and sand-ravaged desert.

The dark walls stood tall, surrounded by the boundless yellow sand of the vast sea.

Chu Qinghuang naturally doesn't worry about these things now. Although the appearance of this 'Peerless Master' suit comes with a bit of cheating, it is very easy to use. Just jumping casually will give you the feeling of flying into the sky. Don't be too carefree.It's just that the system also gave him a friendly reminder: Fly too high and you will fall to your death!

So Chu Qinghuang, who was about to challenge the atmosphere with his lightness kung fu, gave up his thoughts, but it was still easy to jump over the city gate.

The dozing man on the tower suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing by, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a white shadow swaying past him, and when he wiped his eyes again, there was nothing left.

The folk houses in Beidi are all low adobe brick houses, only a huge building stands in the center.Chu Qinghuang was jumping over the city wall at that time, at first glance she thought it was a mountain, but when she got closer, she realized that it was a palace built against the mountain wall, there were altars at the four corners of the palace, and people were tied to the altars. Dry bones.Chu Qinghuang shuddered, and took advantage of the night to grope inside.

Because half of this palace is made up of hollowed-out mountain walls, it looks too majestic to climb, but Chu Qinghuang walks easily.He was dressed in white lying on the gray stone wall, looking inconspicuous.

The lights were dim, and there was a faintly lit piano sound on the top of Chu Qinghuang. He stepped on a stone and leaned towards that place.

The place where Chu Qinghuang was staying was already very high, she could see the stars when she raised her eyes, and she could overlook the entire imperial city when she lowered her head.

In the room built by hollowing out the mountain wall, only a curtain made of pebbles was hung, and when Chu Qinghuang looked inside, he could see the dim candlelight flickering.

Vaguely separated by a layer of veil, it seems that a person is playing the piano.

"Master." A voice came from outside the door.

As soon as the piano sounded, the people outside the door got permission and walked in with their heads down.

A woman in Miao Jiang costume came in, with silver rings on her arms jingling.

"Master, those people in the martial arts forest are imprisoned in the forest of no return." The Miao Jiang woman said.

The sound of the piano stopped suddenly, and it took a long time before the answer came, "Is the person I'm looking for here?"

Wow, this voice is too fairy!What about the evil, charming, wild, cold, and unscrupulous leader of the Huanxi Cult?

The Miao Jiang woman knelt down, "This subordinate is incompetent..."

"Kill it. Find it again."

The Miaojiang woman said "yes" and withdrew.

Chu Qinghuang was tickled by the voice that contrasted with her identity. She wanted to see what the leader of the Huanxi Cult looked like, but because of a layer of veil, she could only faintly see that the man was also dressed in white, with his head bowed. He stroked the strings in front of him with his head.

The wind outside was very strong, Chu Qinghuang was lying on the stone wall and her body was frozen, and she didn't have the mood to look any further, so she turned around and jumped down.

Now it is serious to go to the one who does not return to the forest to save talents. As for the leader of the Huanxi Cult?If you can't mess with it, don't mess with it.

The author has something to say: some friends asked for a list of favorability points, so I will list them out.

Chu Feng: 100%

Lie Lingxi: 100%

Pool ink: 60%
