Chapter 182 The water in southern Xinjiang is too deep
After flying for a day and a half, the Zhuiyun Pirate Ship finally arrived at Yongjiang River and headed for the camp on the bank of the river.
The area along the river in Lizhou Prefecture has been heavily guarded. The army has set up more than 200 water forts, and there are many soldiers and horses. When they arrived here, a fierce battle was coming to an end. There were ships running rampant on the river, and some ships had been broken. , there was a fire on the mast and deck, and thick smoke billowed out.
Bodies were floating on the river.
There were soldiers on the boat casting fishing nets to salvage the bodies, hooking them with hooks and hanging them on the stern of the boat, preparing to drag them ashore for burial.
Qin Mu opened his blue sky eyes and looked across the river. There was a dilapidated city on the other side, and there were sporadic battles, because there were still various kinds of rays of light emitted by supernatural powers in the city.
However, the scale of the battle is already very small. It should be that Yankang's army is annihilating the enemies in the city.
Fan Yunxiao suddenly got off the boat and landed slowly towards the military camp. Some soldiers flew up to the boat to inquire. When he learned that he was a scholar from the Taiyuan Academy, he immediately waved a flag and asked the archers below to put down their bows and arrows.
The building ship landed in the military camp. Fan Yunxiao's eyes turned black and white, looking at the sporadic fighting on the other side. He glanced at Shen Wanyun, Yun Que and others, shook his head and said: "Brother Qin, these soldiers can only drag you down." My back legs can't help. In a large-scale battle, you scholars will not be able to be used at all, and it will be difficult to save your life. I'm leaving. I'll come find you when I get enough black iron and treasure ship blueprints! "After that, let the bandits on the boat activate the alchemy furnace and fly away.
Yun Que and others were shocked. Shen Wanyun sneered: "This person's strength is not bad, but his vision is very problematic."
A general came up and asked, "Are you a scholar from Taiyuan College?"
Qin Mu nodded and said: "Is Lizhou Prefecture Shaoyin Yu Yuan Chuyu on the front line? Please let me know and tell Qin Mu from Dijiang County to see you."
The general was surprised and did not dare to neglect, so he hurried away.
Not long after, the sound of armor clashing was heard. Everyone looked around and saw a female general wearing armor walking towards him with a helmet under her arm. She was handsome and extremely beautiful, with pink and red lips. Unforgettable.
She must have just come off the battlefield, and there were still blood stains on her body.
"It turns out to be Brother Qin Mu."
At the beginning of Yu Yuan's life, his eyes fell on Qin Mu, and his eyes lit up: "That little brother who walked out of Dijiang County a few months ago has become famous today. I heard my brother talk about you, you Now you can be considered successful, and I am happy for you in my heart."
"Sister is joking."
Qin Mu was stunned and said: "I didn't tell my sister that I was from Daxu before."
Yu Yuan Chuyu said: "After you left, I was still thinking about when there was a Qin family in Dijiang County who could teach such an outstanding disciple. Later, my brother sent a message and told me about you. It turns out that you are from Daxu."
Yun Que, Yue Qinghong and others were shocked. Lizhou Prefecture was the destination for all the imperial scholars who went out for training. They didn't expect Qin Mu to be familiar with Lizhou Prefecture Shaoyin!
These high-ranking local officials were themselves feudal officials. In addition, Yu Yuan Chuyu had an extraordinary background. She was the princess of Yu Yuan Kingdom at that time, and another prince of Yu Yuan Kingdom was Yu Yuan Izumo, who became a general in the capital. .
Qin Mu was obviously just an abandoned citizen from Daxu, how could he be related to Yu Yuan Chuyu?
"Sister Chuyu, how is the Corpse Immortal Sect?" Qin Mu asked.
"I have defeated the Corpse Immortal Sect, but there are still some remnants who have escaped and gone to southern Xinjiang."
Yu Yuan Chuyu led them to the city wall and said: "Rebels from all walks of life have gathered in southern Xinjiang, as well as various rebellious sects, and the forces are mixed. All the cities along the river have stationed troops to guard against death. They will be invaded soon. We have reached southern Xinjiang, but the water is too deep and the current situation is still unclear."
"The water is too deep?" Everyone was startled.
Yu Yuan Chuyu smiled: "In today's world, do you know who is loyal and who is traitorous? Take me for example. I am the subjugated princess of Yu Yuan Kingdom. How do you know that I will not rebel in the next moment?"
Shen Wanyun and others had cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads, worried that this heroic female general would turn her back and kill someone the next moment, declaring rebellion.
Yu Yuan Chuyu said calmly: "The imperial court is too closely connected with the previous era. The Imperial Master wants to create a new era on this basis, but the forces he can use are often the forces of the old era. His new era cannot It is completely free from the influence of the old era, so who knows which sect or powerful official will be the next to rebel?"
Monk Yun Que trembled and said, "But Master Shaoyin won't rebel, right?"
Yu Yuan Chuyu looked at him, with a chilling smile on his face, and said softly: "Guess. If you guess it right, you won't die."
Yun Que's face was as pale as dirt, and he was pissing heavily.
A high-ranking official like Yu Yuan Chuyu has a good aura. Although she is a woman, her cold face can scare people to pieces.
Yu Yuan Chuyu chuckled lightly, and in exchange for a general, he gave an order, and the general immediately mobilized his troops, and a large army of more than a thousand people came.
Yu Yuan Chuyu walked down the tower and walked on the river. Behind him, more than a thousand soldiers also stepped forward, stepping on the river and walking towards the other side.
Qin Mu followed her, his footsteps landed on the river, and the vitality burst out from the soles of his feet. He held him up steadily and said with a smile: "Sister, don't scare him."
Shen Wanyun and others also quickly followed up, each mobilizing their vitality to prevent themselves from sinking into the water.
They can run on water, but walking leisurely on water is a bit difficult. In addition to controlling water, they also need strong vitality cultivation.
Yu Yuan Chuyu said with great interest: "Brother, don't you think I will rebel against the imperial court?"
Qin Mu shook his head: "Because this rebellion is itself a plan for the Imperial Guard to purge the government and the opposition. My sister is a smart person and sees things accurately. If my sister had been stupid, she would have rebelled long ago and would not have waited until today."
Yu Yuan Chuyu smiled and said: "You are right or wrong. The reason why I don't rebel is not simply because I am smart enough. There are many people who come to persuade me to rebel, and they all come with full confidence, thinking that they can definitely make me rebel. However, They all got it wrong. My Yu Yuan family values not the throne, but the people of Yu Yuan. When the Yu Yuan Kingdom was still there, the Yankang Kingdom had become powerful and could attack at any time. My father knew that if a war broke out, the country would be destroyed and the family would be destroyed. After the death of the emperor, the imperial master entered Yuyuan to discuss Taoism with my father. At that time, all civil and military officials were there, and the discussion was about the governance of the country and people's livelihood. My brother and I were also in the court. Then, we were defeated."
She looked calm and said: "Both the way of governing the country and the way of people's livelihood have failed completely, I am convinced. My father resigned from the throne and let my brother succeed him. My brother refused and passed the throne to me. I..."
She showed a smile, whether it was self-deprecating or a real smile: "I told Yankang Imperial Master that I am not as good as you in running the country and the people's livelihood is not as good as you, so I will leave the Yuyuan Kingdom to you. If you can't satisfy me in running the country and people's livelihood, in the future I will So I turned against you. The imperial master agreed and let me govern Yuyuan, which is now Lizhou."
"That's it." Everyone suddenly realized.
Hu Ling'er said in surprise: "Sister, it turns out you are still a female emperor!"
Yu Yuan Chuyu said with a smile: "I have been a female emperor for a day, but it is not much fun. If you want to be an emperor, just find a place and make yourself the emperor. It is just a matter of the number of people under your jurisdiction and the number of people under your jurisdiction."
She looked at the billowing smoke and fire on the river, looked away, smiled at Shen Wanyun and others: "You are really lucky to be able to follow my brother. His ability is very extraordinary."
Yue Qinghong and Yun Que looked at each other, wondering where the female general could see Qin Mu's extraordinary ability.
Yu Yuan Chuyu thought of the red corpse crickets that he found all over the mountains and plains in the north of Huyang County. In addition to the red corpse crickets, there was also a skeleton. The flesh and blood on the corpse had melted away, leaving only bones and clothes. He could tell the difference from the clothes. He turned out to be a master of the Corpse Immortal Cult.
Although this master of the Corpse Immortal Sect can no longer be identified, judging from the methods and number of zombies he controls, his level of cultivation has probably reached the seven-star realm.
The Corpse Immortal Cult specializes in corpses and poisons, and their cultivation level is not very high. However, if they fight against the Corpse Immortal Cult, even if their cultivation level and combat power are higher than them, it will be difficult to defeat them.
This master of the Corpse Immortal Cult died of poisoning, and the person who poisoned him was probably the honest-looking and honest brother next to him.
This brother even deceived himself at that time, and even wrote him a customs clearance guide to introduce him to the capital.
In Yu Yuan Chuyu's heart, Shen Wanyun and others were lucky to be able to follow such a cunning guy to practice, which was even safer than following the Imperial Academy. That's why Shen Wanyun and others were lucky.
When we arrived at the other side, the city across the river had been beaten to the point where its towers had collapsed. I don’t know how many people had been killed or injured.
Yu Yuan Chuyu led his army into the city and said: "I just said that the water is deep. In addition to that reason, there is another reason. You see, it was not difficult for me to conquer Lu County. I captured it easily. The rebels were too weak. Bar?"
Qin Mu was slightly startled: "Luring the enemy deeper?"
"Not only did it lure the enemy deeper, but the old fox didn't even move."
Yu Yuan Chuyu's eyes flashed: "The three old monsters who injured the Imperial Master have not appeared yet. I am afraid there are more than three old monsters from the old era. The Lord of Liqing Palace, Qiu Dieyi, and the three Lords of Sanqi Castle, rebelled. The Daxingtai Shangshu, the Dragon King who controls the Dragon Gate, and other powerful leaders at the leader level, none of them showed up. The other leaders, sect masters, and sect leaders, large and small, were all very quiet. And..."
She whispered: "Who knows if there are still gods alive in the old times?"
Qin Mu fought several cold wars.
Shen Wanyun and others were also horrified.
Yu Yuan Chuyu obviously knew a lot about the old times, but he did not talk about it in depth. He said: "Don't worry, these old monsters will not deal with you juniors easily. Their target is the national preceptor, a first-class official in the court. They are entrenched in Lu County. It’s a sect not much bigger than the Corpse Immortal Sect, called Jiuyou Sect. Lu County has just been pacified, and there are still some remaining members of the Jiuyou Sect who are on the run. I’ll give you an easy job to wipe out the remaining members.”
Her bright eyes fell on Qin Mu and others, and said: "Jiuyoumen is good at pretending to be gods and ghosts. It is said that it can invite ghosts and gods to help fight. You should prepare in advance. When other scholars arrive, you can go and destroy them."
