Yaowang Valley is located in Jingzhou, nearly 1,500 miles away from Luojing. It is basically located in the southwest corner of the Zhou Dynasty and borders the "Ancient Chongqing" country.
The ancient country of Chongqing was a basin surrounded by mountains and was very closed. Although it was a human country, it was very closed and exclusive. There was basically no foreign exchange, let alone intermarriage and trade.
Because it is surrounded by high mountains and primeval forests, the ancient country of Chongqing has a history of tens of thousands of years, and they are self-sufficient in everything.
Coming from Jingzhou, the mountains are high and the road is long. Even if a first-grade grandmaster goes all out, it will take three days and two nights.
A first-grade grandmaster has never left the category of "human". He also needs to eat and rest, so these times must be included in the calculation.
Of course, if you don’t want to eat or drink, or if you run as hard as you can, it’s still okay.
It depends on whether the cost is worth it.
The Saint of Yaowang Valley and the Great Elder are both important figures. To put it bluntly, the Saint is the spokesperson promoted by Yaowang Valley and a persona created by her.
It is used to attract more young talents to join Yaowang Valley and increase the power of Yaowang Valley.
Of course, saints are also powerful and beautiful, and every generation of saints has the strength to be ranked among the most prodigies of the time.
Therefore, every generation of saints who come out of the mountain will have quite a few followers and admirers, and then one of them will be chosen to join the Yaowang Valley.
Therefore, Yaowang Valley grew in this way, and because the children of the Saint Maiden had extremely good genes from their fathers, their inheritance would naturally be good, and many families would naturally be born.
Yaowang Valley is actually a small independent kingdom.
However, they do not rest on their laurels. Instead, they continue to absorb fresh blood from the outside world and develop and grow. This is the foundation of Yaowang Valley that has been passed down to this day.
Yaowang Valley has a history of thousands of years and has seven surnames, namely Sun, Tang, Li, Zhang, Ge, Huangfu and Xue.
It's basically hereditary.
Among the seven surnames in Yaowang Valley, the owner of the valley usually comes from the Li family, because the Li family is the founder of Yaowang Valley. The first generation of the owner of the valley, the first elder is basically from the Sun family, and then one elder from each family, and then six to eight are selected.
Elders who do not belong to these seven surnames form the group of elders of Yaowang Valley.
This formed the highest authority of Yaowang Valley, which is similar to the authority of Ghost City. However, the Ghost Market has the final say of the Five Holy Spirits. Other first-grade sects can only participate in the distribution of interests and have the right to make suggestions but not any decision-making power.
The most famous thing in Yaowang Valley is naturally the saint who can walk outside. Every generation of saint is extremely graceful and can cause great disturbances in the world.
The previous generation of saints gets married and has children, and the next generation of saints will pass their selection system and be selected.
The saint does not necessarily have to be a girl from a family with these seven surnames, and can also be from other surnames. However, if women with other surnames do not have the resources and support behind them, they will not be able to compete with the women with these seven surnames.
Therefore, in the past two hundred years, the saints of Yaowang Valley basically came from these seven surnames. Women with other surnames can only be reduced to foils even if they have outstanding qualifications.
The saint of this generation was named Xue and Shangxiang. She was a concubine of the Xue family. It is said that when she was born, her whole body was filled with a strange medicinal fragrance. When ordinary people smell it, it can relieve fatigue and pain, which is called miraculous.
But legends are just legends and cannot be taken seriously. People in the world just spread rumors.
He was extremely talented in medicine. He knew herbs since he was a child, and he started treating people at the age of seven. He was known as the "little miracle doctor".
Now that she is only seventeen years old, she has defeated all the saint girl candidates in the valley and became the new generation of saint girl in Yaowang Valley. If she had not been under eighteen years old and Yaowang Valley had not allowed her to go out and walk, I am afraid that there would have been rumors about her in the world. .
This time, I am afraid that the price offered by the Shen family was too high for the saint to come out of the valley and come to Luojing.
Anyway, the power is coming out, what's the difference if it's earlier or later?
On the way from Jingzhou to Luojing, we have to pass through two prefectures, namely Jinzhou and Shuozhou. In fact, including Jingzhou, there are three prefectures.
The territory of Jingzhou is hilly, and the mountain roads are not easy to walk on. We need a short-legged horse that can walk on such roads. This horse can walk on the mountain roads very steadily, but it cannot go fast.
When we arrived in Jinzhou, half of the state was made up of mountains and half was water, and it was famous for its golden sands. There were many lakes and rivers in the state, so it was convenient to take a boat, but the speed was not very fast.
Unless you use Qinggong to travel directly.
Then Shuozhou is much better. With seven points of plains and a fast horse galloping, you can travel through most of Shuozhou in half a day. The problem is that it is a long winter and the roads are blocked by heavy snow. Even if there are people on the official roads to clear the snow and maintain the roads, There are many factors that can delay your trip.
The estimated time Sun Wei gave Shen Zhuang was based on the best situation. In fact, the time he mentioned was too late at all.
Shen Zhuang had his own judgment, so he decisively lowered his dignity and asked Luo Xing to extend Liu Zhimei's life.
Compared with Liu Zhimei's life, his little face is nothing.
There is plenty of time, which is also good news for the Holy Maiden of the Medicine King Valley, the Great Elder and his party who have come all the way. After all, they don't need to rush so hard.
Entering Shuozhou, Grand Elder Sun Donglin received a letter from Elder Sun Wei (Elder Deacon) in Luojing and learned about the relevant situation.
Immediately ordered to slow down.
After all, traveling for the past two days was a bit too much for him given his experience and age, not to mention that the saint, who was only seventeen or eighteen years old, had just left the Medicine King Valley and had insufficient cultivation and experience, so she was already gritting her teeth and persisting.
The Saint of Yaowang Valley has a special status. In the position of Saint, walking in the outside world is almost equivalent to that of the Valley Master. However, once the Saint gets married, she loses all her aura.
In fact, it is not good to have a few glorious years in life, not to mention that becoming a saint can give you a lot of resources. Even after getting married, you will have energy that ordinary people cannot have. If the person you marry is very powerful, you can get a high position in Yaowang Valley. If so, the future will be good.
This time when I went out, in addition to the saint and the great elder, I also brought with me a small team of elites from the valley, each of whom had a cultivation level above the third level.
No one in the world would dare to mess with such a team, let alone a first-grade grandmaster like the Great Elder.
The saint herself is also a second-level martial arts practitioner. She has twelve elite escorts, two second-level martial arts, and a large and small group arranged by the Xue family to serve the saint. There are a total of sixteen people in the group.
The journey was smooth, but the further north we went, the thicker the snow became, the harder it became, and the speed couldn't be increased.
"Huitong" cabinet shop has branches all over the country, some are under its own direct control, and some cooperate with local ones. In short, as long as there is access to the post in Dazhou, the influence of "Huitong" cabinet shop is there.
Everywhere the Yaowang Valley group went, they received the best supplies and arrangements, not to mention the resting accommodation, which must have the best local conditions.
"Great Elder, there may be a snowstorm tonight and we won't be able to leave. The map shows that there is a small town twenty miles ahead called Anle Town. We can stay in the town for one night and leave early tomorrow morning!" Liang Shun, the leader of the guard, raised his head.
After looking at the dark clouds in the sky, he concluded that there would be a snowstorm tonight based on his many years of experience in observing the sky, and it would be unrealistic to travel all night.
"Okay, listen to Liang Shun, let's stay in Anle Town tonight!" Grand Elder Sun Donglin nodded. He was rushing in the snowstorm. Not only was everyone's safety not guaranteed, but it would be even more troublesome if they got lost.
…
"Wei Gong, this snowstorm can only delay them for one night at most. They will be on the road early tomorrow morning." Just after the Yaowang Valley group left, a team of black knights appeared at the place where they stopped. These people
They were all dressed in black clothes and armor, and the leader was a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard, with raised orchid fingers, which made him look a little feminine.
Wei Gong, the head of the Imperial City Division.
"Where is Liexuan?"
"It's still half a day's journey."
"Take care of Yaowang Valley first. Remember, our mission is not to kill people, but the 'Nine Turns of Resurrection Pill'." Wei Gong waved his hand and gave an order, and the team galloped forward with a rumble.
"yes!"
The team of dozens of people rushed away.
…
Lie Xuan was not slow either, but he set off later than Yaowang Valley, and he had to constantly change directions based on information. After all, the people in Yaowang Valley didn't know in advance which way they would take.
In addition, the road out of Luojing is the most difficult to travel at the moment, so it will inevitably be a bit slower, but it is still many times faster than an ordinary business trip.
They all ride the best snow horses, which can withstand severe cold and have long stamina, and other people simply cannot afford to support them.
Lie Xuan is a first-grade grandmaster, plus four second-grade martial arts masters. With such a lineup, unless there are three or more grandmasters, no one can stop it.
"Sir, look!"
Lie Xuan reined in the reins, stopped on his horse, and looked far into the distance. The place they were on was a high and low place, and they could see the sky in the distance.
"Grand Master of the Spiritual Dao, someone is interfering with the celestial phenomena!" Lie Xuan has touched the edge of the extraordinary, and his natural sense of touch is much sharper than that of ordinary people.
Although it was hundreds of miles away, he could feel that the phenomenon was not formed naturally, but was guided by someone.
People in the spiritual realm can call for wind and rain, but they must meet certain conditions. Even if they step into the spiritual realm, they must follow certain conditions, and it is impossible to create something out of nothing.
However, spiritual masters can interfere with celestial phenomena. For example, light rain can turn into heavy rain, or even heavy rain, or rain can be moved from one place to another. This is all possible.
What Lie Xuan saw at this moment was that someone had guided what was originally just an ordinary heavy snow into a localized blizzard.
Under heavy snowfall, in addition to causing snow disasters, the roads will also be completely covered...
"No, hurry up!" Lie Xuan had a strong premonition that this small-scale snowstorm was most likely heading towards their target.
Because the direction is too coincidental.
A dark red figure wearing a black fang mask descended from the sky and immediately blocked the path of Lie Xuan and the five others.
A powerful aura enveloped the entire place, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
Massive bloodshed!
Xue Sha, the person in charge of Qixing Pavilion in Luojing Ghost City, actually appeared here.
Lie Xuan's face darkened, the problem was troublesome, Xue Sha Mitian was a first-level Grand Master like him, and Xue Sha focused on killing, so he would be even better in a fight.
Although the four second-grade martial arts masters he led were all senior martial arts masters, since the other party had sent the Blood Killing Mitian, they might have made arrangements to accept these four martial arts masters.
As expected, eight more men in black appeared behind Xue Sha, all dressed like the Seven Star Pavilion killers. They also wore masks, so their true faces could not be seen.
"Blood kill, you dare to be an enemy of my father-in-law?"
"I don't dare, but someone paid me to stop you here. I have no choice but to earn the money!" A rebellious voice sounded from the bloody massacre.
"Aren't you afraid that my father-in-law will take revenge on your Qixing Pavilion?"
"If Qixing Pavilion was afraid of revenge, it would have been destroyed many times." Xue Sha Mi Tian Jie Jie smiled, "Lie Xuan, you and I are equally powerful. As long as you stay where you are, I will not take the initiative.
