The sky was gloomy, light rain fell on the river, and the air was filled with moist water, the smell before a midsummer storm. The mist was like smoke, covering the river.
A large boat passed through the fog, and the sound of water waves caused the fish in the water to scatter. A light red carp jumped out of the water to seek oxygen to relieve its suffocation before the wind and rain, but a white water bird flew across the water, grabbed the fish and flew away.
The tail struggled and could not move.
An arrow shadow penetrated the wing of the flying bird, and white feathers flew away. The white shadow fluttered twice and plunged into the water. The strength of this large bird in the predicament was not weak, but a thin transparent ribbon was tied to the tail of the arrow.
It cannot be separated.
On another section of the thin line, many people on the big ship cheered: "My Lord is good at archery."
Xiangzhou customs like elegance and admiration for ancient styles. This is a type of ancient Fargo archery. In order to improve the success rate of hunting and ensure freshness, the prey is hunted with the shooting method of wounding without death, and the arrow rope is used to retrieve it——
This kind of archery is no longer purely for hunting, but a form of customary entertainment.
Amid the lively praise, someone dragged the fish and bird back to the deck and handed it over to a middle-aged man with thick, straight eyebrows and a bit gloomy look. It was Zhang Weicun, the Marquis of Xiang on his way back.
He held the fish and bird thoughtfully, and finally handed the bird to the cook to cook, and threw the red-tailed carp back into the water, sighing: "I will not shoot for this fish or bird, or for people in the future."
"
Everyone looked at each other in shock and did not dare to answer. They thought that the Lord might have lost the battle with the Qing County King for a daughter, so they expressed their feelings.
At this moment, a flash of light flashed from the red carp that fell into the water, and a girl wearing red gauze stood in the water waves, wearing a veil, and bowed to her: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang.
"Fish demon? Huh...that's not right."
Zhang Weicun stared at the girl and scanned her body back and forth. He felt that she had some aura of water tribe blood and was shielded by a layer of mist. He judged that it was not a demonic aura but a divine power. His eyes suddenly became sharp: "You, water tribe, are here to tease me?"
"
"It's not for fun, it's just to test the Marquis of Xiang's attitude towards the Shui tribe."
The girl's eyes were full of tenderness: "I am the daughter of Uncle Shui of Xiangshui River. I met you in the palace just now and admired you so much that I came here to meet you."
"What is your surname?"
"Is this your intention or your father's intention?" Zhang Weicun frowned: "How will the Qing County King deal with it?"
The actual question is whether you are getting married with a matchmaker or eloping. The two are completely different.
"My name is Hongxiao."
The girl lowered her head slightly and spoke in a soft voice: "This is my father's wish. There is my sister in the Prince of Qing County. She has a gentle and suitable temperament..."
She knew that her father's request for a marriage between the two was very difficult. If the Marquis of Xiang was the only one, he could follow the example of the Taiping Lake sisters and marry together. Now she couldn't be biased...
It depends on who of the two of us will win?
Zhang Weicun fell silent. No wonder he didn't get a response in the palace. Thinking like this, he didn't say whether he believed in the girl's admiration or not. He only smiled and invited: "Well, from now on you and I will be together through thick and thin..."
"Bang" the cabin door was pushed open hard, and the messenger rushed out with a pale face: "Master Marquis, urgent news from Yingzhou"
There have been no heavy storms recently, and Yuanci has relatively little disturbance, making the communication good. Zhang Weicun was not surprised to receive news from the spies at this moment. The moment he received the message, he saw an announcement from the Marquis Mansion of the Han Dynasty, with a few bright red words.
The unexpected feeling was a bit ominous, but before it had time to ferment, his eyes widened: "A true immortal, becoming a true immortal... how is that possible?"
The girl in red gauze tilted her head, her gaze curiously fell on the paper, she was stunned and murmured: "The Marquis of Han, Ye Qing?"
No, maybe he should be called Xianhou now.
The atmosphere on the Xiang River was still warm and moist, but just this small piece of paper was like a cold wind blowing in advance from the far north. The environment on the ship suddenly changed from midsummer to cold winter, and everyone's hearts felt cold.
A dangerous neighbor has emerged in the north and has penetrated northern Hunan. Where will Xiangzhou go?
Yingzhou·Nanlian Cave Sky
On the top of a raised mountain, the mountain wind was fierce, revealing the distant blue sky. What was different from the ground was that gradually, two balls of light separated in the sky.
With a red light, the fire cloud cave sky arrived here. It was actually similar to the fairy garden. It was originally regarded as the sun, but now it gradually moved away.
A new ball of light gradually turns into a white star in the sky, which means it becomes bigger and bigger and becomes the sun.
As the light spreads, this world becomes more and more real. Even the eight pillars of heaven have disappeared and are almost invisible. This kind of thing may be related to the formation of the heart of the Five Virtues Fairy Garden.
Ye Qing was thinking, and when he heard the sound of footsteps behind him, he looked away without looking back, and asked: "The notices have been sent out."
The footsteps stopped, and then Zhuge Liang's solemn voice said: "It is widely reported that the ten states and one country in the lower reaches of the Qianjing River have even filed their declarations with the imperial court. We are waiting for the envoy from heaven to confirm.
"The higher ups are beating up the enemy ships, and they won't be able to take care of me for a while." Ye Qing thought for a while and said, "It's actually very simple to confirm. I went to Xiangbei, and Da Siming's clone is still there, and she is still an angel.
.”
"Then... congratulations to my lord." Everyone laughed and felt very relaxed. According to the military information from Sanqing, it seems that the enemy ships have been weakened to the extreme. The lord and Emperor Wa will go over and be able to make a final decision.
"Don't take it too easy, it's not that easy..."
Ye Qing laughed, but he was not worried about not being able to deal with Taoist Xuanguan. He stretched out his finger and pointed around: "Is this terrain familiar?"
When they came just now, some people realized that they hadn't paid much attention to it for a while. Now after hearing the reminder, more people looked at the scenery of this mountain and suddenly wondered: "This is...the Kunlun Mountain of the Earth?"
"Yes, but it's just a miniature version. This may be related to the simultaneous transformation of yin and yang."
"The lonely fairy garden is still being molded. Once it is achieved, it will be the sun in this cave."
"Nu Wa's fire clouds in the cave sky, or the second sun, but this will not last long. If it really condenses into a fairy garden, or a cave sky, stars, or the moon."
No one can take away the sun in the cave sky, which represents sovereignty.
There is no essential difference between the stars and the moon, it is just the degree of communication with the cave sky - if the communication is large, it is the moon; if the communication is small, it is the stars.
Ye Qing looked at the sky to observe the Qi, and became a True Immortal Queen. The Dayan Divine Technique automatically advanced to the fifth level. The first thing he saw was a faint green Qi.
"The Heavenly Family has been consumed so much that it has become somewhat shapeless."
While Ye Qing was thinking, he saw himself again. In his eyes, this body was flowing red, showing endless vitality, and outside it, there were thousands of entangled and complicated fates, and the overall color was light cyan.
, but at this time, changes have occurred, and traces of red energy are produced out of thin air and injected into the external air.
"It may have happened before, but it is very obvious when you achieve the Immortal Body. The Immortal Body itself has its own destiny and is not affected by the outside world."
"It's just that, judging from its nature, I'm afraid it's still fighting?"
Ye Qing looked up and saw that although they belonged to the same master, the red energy and the light green energy were fighting each other for sovereignty.
"That's right, although the leader is noble, he actually relies on the Qi of the people, and is also controlled by the Qi."
"The system is God."
"In the immortal way, the power is attributed to oneself."
"There is a confrontation and fighting here." In a flash of thought, Ye Qing realized it and couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Although the red energy level is lower, it is seen that there is an endless supply. Although the light green energy is expensive, it is composed of thousands of species, so it can be broken down individually. Gradually, its properties change.
"So that's the case. No wonder all the emperors except Taizu were unable to practice cultivation. They were frightened by the dragon's energy."
Ye Qing then looked at this side of the cave sky. Compared to a month ago, it had shrunk by about half, but the earth veins and subsoil were faintly letting out traces of red and yellow energy, replenishing it.
Moreover, the cave itself was also faintly breathing spiritual energy, but it took longer.
"As long as the lower earth continues, the replenishment and expansion of the cave sky will not stop. However, since the fairy garden has been separated, the fetus is born as a baby. Although it has ushered in a faster growth period, it can change from umbilical cord nutrition to breast milk nutrition. In the lower earth Yang
The benefits of transformation will be separated by one layer, and the conversion efficiency will be much lower."
"This natural law forces every new born immortal to seek more food, and I am no exception."
"I was still thinking about whether I could build a White Jade Capital and a residence for Sanqing... But don't worry, the shape of the cave is fixed, and it will only grow slowly. I can't spare many resources for the time being. Wait until they really make it.
It’s not too late to decide, now we must open source to maintain growth.”
Ye Qing turned his attention to the south. There were only three days left before the January deadline for Da Siming. It was time to finish off the Zhenjun Ship in Dongping County and get involved in central Hunan.
"I heard that Prince Qing went to Xiangzhou Water Mansion to request a marriage. What was the result?"
"The specific news has not been transmitted yet, but Xianghou Zhang Weicun is also competing. We analyze that it is difficult for the two of them to monopolize the support of Xiangzhou Water Palace." Zhuge Liang bowed and said.
"How is the situation in Shonan?"
"The Xiangyin Cave is still safe." Ji Caizhu bowed slightly: "My lord, are you going south now?"
"Ha... Who said that all the civil servants and generals in my house are heroes? Your room for growth is far more than it is now. I have to find a position and a fairy position for you as soon as possible, right?"
Everyone looked at each other, and their hearts couldn't help but feel excited. They were all excited and admired - when they were still looking forward to conquering the human world, the lord had already laid out a higher level, which hinted at the future of immortality.
"The expansion is still going ahead as planned, but recently there have been a lot of Outer Demon Immortals falling from the sky. We have to increase our speed... Next, let's see where the Outer Realm Immortal Ship is stronger. It is best to be the True King Ship that is invincible. We
Just enter in the name of supporting the suppression..."
Everyone smiled, knowing very well the nature of this so-called support. As long as it is inserted in, will it be withdrawn?
Things have priorities, and the continued expansion of Xiangzhou is currently the top priority, but Ye Qing has never forgotten to cultivate high-level combat capabilities.
After the ministers dispersed, he called Qianqian and Zhou Ling, and gave them each a fairy garden crystal ball on the spot: "A gift for you... I know you can't refine it yet, but you have all experienced the secret of being promoted to the fairy garden.
Take it back and slowly ponder the experiment, familiarize yourself with the characteristics of the fairy garden, and then use it as a blessed land."
"Using the fairy garden as a blessed land? This is too nouveau rich..."
Qianqian rolled her eyes at her husband, but put it away with a smile. Allocating the fairy garden was always a benefit, and it was a kind of reward for her. Taoist couples would not be too utilitarian, and what she valued more was that her husband would think about everything.
With her, we are in the same boat through thick and thin, sharing weal and woe.
Ye Qing and Qianqian's tacit understanding was already tacitly understood, and there was no need to say more. Seeing that Zhou Ling was a little hesitant to accept the gift, which was rare for her obedient nature, she couldn't help but ask: "What's the problem?"
"Sir, look at this Jinde Fairy Garden...it is the Sword Garden."
The swordsmanship girl turned over the crystal ball and stared at the golden sword light flowing inside: "The swordsmanship of the outside world, other people's swordsmanship... I am afraid that it will infect my sword heart."
