"Hahaha, when I was young, I followed the caravans to the Cangyun Empire several times. Later, after I got Run'er and Jin'er, I settled down and became a fisherman. Although my life was not rich, at least I was able to be self-sufficient.
"
The bald man's face was already flushed. While talking about the happy time many years ago, he raised his head and poured the strong drink in his mouth into his mouth.
Opposite him, Li Mu also laughed, picked up the coarse porcelain sea bowl, and drank the wine in one gulp, letting the wine slip from his mouth and wet his clothes.
The woman sitting on her knees looked at the two of them with a smile, and from time to time she would pick up a warm wine flask and fill her husband and Li Mu with new wine.
Even the two little kids were pulling the little monkeys to eat the freshly baked red bean cakes. The fragrant smell permeated the entire fishing boat. It was really a peaceful scene.
But not long ago, Li Mu was still at a loss for his embarrassing situation. After all, anyone would think that Cangyun Empire and Penglai Immortal Kingdom are two incompatible countries, and there should be a deep hatred between the two peoples.
.
The earlier war of aggression shocked the entire Immortal World. In the end, the Cangyun Empire defeated the strong with the weak. Even with a large-scale civil war, the Penglai Fleet, known as the overlord of the East China Sea, was blocked in Qinglan City.
The disastrous defeat of the Penglai army soon triggered a chain reaction. Without the huge maritime fleet to guard it, the forces in the East China Sea that were originally afraid of or even surrendered to the Penglai Immortal Kingdom rebelled and joined forces to challenge the Immortal Kingdom's dominance in the East China Sea.
An ocean-going invasion war also consumed a large amount of Penglai's local wealth and resources. If they could successfully occupy the Cangyun Empire, which had a vast territory and abundant resources, it would be a profitable business, but who would have thought that Penglai's side would be defeated in the end.
This amounted to a huge amount of money spent. In the end, the planned land and materials were not obtained, and even the expensive battleship group was damaged in Qinglan City.
This level of loss is definitely a serious injury to the Penglai Immortal Kingdom. The defeat of the war also dragged the domestic economy, production, people's livelihood and other systems into the quagmire of collapse.
Therefore, even if Li Mu is insensitive to politics, it is impossible for him to think that the fishermen of Penglai Immortal Kingdom can look good on him, an enemy country. This is because they do not know that he is the "Cang Yun Hero" who turned the tide in Qinglan City.
situation.
But the fairy world is indeed a place where miracles occur frequently, and there is always this seemingly subtle but actually inevitable gap between imagination and reality.
The expected tense situation did not come at all. After confirming that Li Mu did not hate the ordinary people of Penglai Immortal Kingdom, the bald man's family behaved more enthusiastically than before.
"Brother, so according to your opinion, there are two Penglai Immortal Kingdoms now?"
Li Mu put a piece of tuna sushi into his mouth. The tender and juicy fish meat was chewy and chewy. Paired with the vinegared rice cooked by the woman and left to cool, the taste of the sea swept through his entire mouth in an instant.
After repeatedly cheering, Li Mucai put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked the bald man who was already drunk.
"This is indeed the case. Since the end of that terrible war, the Penglai Ten Guys have completely fallen out and split into two factions. The originally ruling war faction still occupies the eastern region headed by Penglai City."
"But the other five ten men were originally opposed to this aggressive war. After their defeat, they led their followers to establish another independent country, with their headquarters set up in Honda City in the west."
"Most of the nobles and established immortal cultivating sects in the Immortal Kingdom still chose to side with the main war faction, but ordinary people and those casual cultivators are basically supporting the newly established Immortal Kingdom, so the two sides are facing each other and are already fighting each other.
For a long time.”
As the bald man explained in depth, Li Mu became more and more surprised. Logically speaking, it was impossible for an ordinary fisherman to understand the country's situation so thoroughly.
"Our family, Taro, has a childhood friend who works in the Immortal Kingdom Historical Materials Pavilion. I heard all these things from him."
The woman who was warming the wine obviously noticed Li Mu's surprise. Seeing her husband talking endlessly, she couldn't stop talking, so she took advantage of the time of pouring the wine to explain in Li Mu's ear.
Li Mu had previously learned in detail about the Penglai Immortal Kingdom's unique historical data pavilion. This organization was completely independent of any ruler and was responsible for recording the most authentic history of the Penglai Immortal Kingdom.
It is rumored that the Historical Data Pavilion was established by the founder of the first Penglai Immortal Kingdom. The purpose is to record the development of the entire Immortal Kingdom fairly and objectively, ranging from the replacement of the members of the Ten Guys to the rise and fall of a family in a small town. All the Historical Materials Pavilion believes that there is
The necessary information will be copied on the jade slips and then stored in an independent small world.
Judging from the usual situation in the immortal world for tens of thousands of years, such simple historians should be completely obedient to the orders of the people in power at that time, and often only leave the historical records that the emperor wants to leave, but the historical records of Penglai Immortal Kingdom are
It's a special case.
It is said that the founder of the Immortal Kingdom left a gold medal for immunity from death to the master of the Historical Information Pavilion before breaking through the Ascension Realm and leaving the Immortal World. It was with this magical magic weapon that the members of the Historical Information Pavilion were not affected by those in power.
Volumes of magnificent and true historical pictures have been left behind.
"I didn't expect Penglai Immortal Kingdom to have such a system. I just don't know how that war of aggression will be left in the history scrolls."
Li Mu had no sympathy for the current split in the Penglai Immortal Kingdom. After all, he had never been a person with a holy mother's heart. Even if he had to do it over ten thousand times, he would still choose to defeat the invaders without hesitation.
"Brother, do you know where in Penglai Immortal Kingdom there is a route to the South China Sea? Or is it the kind of caravan that passes near the South China Sea?"
Unexpectedly being involved in the tide of vitality, and then being pushed into the deep sea whirlpool by the giant octopus siren, Li Mu has deviated from his original plan, but now he can only use tricks to find someone who can travel from Penglai Fairyland to the South China Sea.
way.
"The South China Sea? As far as I know, there doesn't seem to be a dedicated route there, but I'm not sure. You can go to the ports of big cities and look. Maybe there will be caravans setting out for the South China Sea to stop."
Finally, under the advice of the bald man, Li Mu decided to go to the nearest Honda City, which is the largest city in the west of Penglai Immortal Kingdom and has a large port second only to Penglai City.
Since the Civil War in the Fairyland began, Honda Port has become one of the few ports in the Fairyland that is still open to the outside world. If he wants to go to the South China Sea, Li Mu can only find a way there.
