Chapter 236 Departure
Although Ye Chen didn't understand who made this rule, the war between the two countries must be resolved in the forbidden area, but since the forbidden area has existed for tens of thousands of years, there is a certain reason . www.{dyzww.{net{m{
Nie Qingyun, who was in the royal courtyard, and the old man transformed by the sky-shrouding fire bird rushed over immediately after receiving Ye Chen's summons.
After some preparations, the group set off together.
On the bank of the Heihe River, there is a royal wharf. A huge boat is docked by the river. All those who are going to the forbidden area gather here and start boarding the boat.
In addition to Ye Chen, Emperor Mingwu, Xiaoyi, etc., those who went to the forbidden area on this trip, the twelve earthly masters under Emperor Mingwu were also impressively listed. The masters of the entire Xiwu Empire, almost was evacuated. Under the command of Ye Chen's mind, the golden yangdiao has been hovering in the sky, following Ye Chen and others.
Emperor Mingwu specially disguised himself so that others could not recognize him. Otherwise, if those courtiers knew that Emperor Mingwu had gone to the forbidden area and took away all the masters of the earth, I am afraid that the entire Xiwu Empire would immediately fall into civil strife. middle.
Before leaving, Emperor Mingwu entrusted all matters to Sylphy Yaozun. Presumably, with the status of Sylphy Yaozun, he could still stabilize people's hearts.
If this battle can be triumphant, the Xiwu Empire can still survive. If this battle is lost, the empire that has lasted for thousands of years will soon be wiped out.
The boat slowly left the pier, went down the river, and headed for the North Sea.
Nanman Kingdom, a small town in Border County.
There is a big river here, and along this river, you can reach the North Sea after passing through the borders of two small countries, and those two small countries are also subject to the Nanman Kingdom.
Tuoba Hongye, the lord of the Nanman Kingdom, suddenly appeared in the city, accompanied by a large number of generals and courtiers from the Nanman Kingdom, hundreds of them.
Surrounded by the crowd, Tuoba Hongye in a Chinese robe was particularly eye-catching. But the most noticeable thing is a thin elder beside Tuoba Hongye. This old man is wearing a shabby gray robe. He is too thin. His cheeks are almost sunken and his eyes are extremely protruding. This old man is bald and his head There are only a few scattered hairs on his body, and bamboo poles are the most appropriate description for this old man. Looking at his hands, his hands are as thin as sticks, like a pair of iron hooks, but his arms are extremely long. A little stooped, and the arms almost reached the knees when they dropped.
This appearance really made people laugh, but none of the nearby generals and courtiers dared to laugh, instead they all looked very respectful.
Even Tuoba Hongye respected this old man very much.
"Uncle, this time I can only let you take a trip. The latest news I got is that several masters suddenly appeared in the Xiwu Empire. Both Dongmen Yingyang and Sikou Fengyan were killed in battle. It is too late to dispatch too many people." , and even if I send experts from the peak of Tianzun to go, I am worried that they will not be able to handle it." Tuoba Hongye said respectfully and authentically in front of the old man.
This old man is actually Tuoba Hongye's uncle?
Whether it is the Xiwu Empire or the people of the Nanman Kingdom, I am afraid that few people know the existence of such an old man.
"Contributing to our Nanman Kingdom is also part of my job in Tuobayan. I have been in the Central Empire for decades. I never thought that under the leadership of my nephew, the Nanman Kingdom has grown to such a great extent. In 2010, it was not difficult for the Tuoba family to enter the Central Empire in one fell swoop. I should also do my part for the Tuoba family. The Mingwu child of the Xiwu Empire wants to compete with our Tuoba family. It is really beyond our capabilities." Tuobayan's voice was hoarse and thin, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
A group of courtiers and generals bowed down respectfully, and they secretly wondered in their hearts just how strong this old man was.
"When my uncle returns to the Central Empire, my nephew will definitely prepare a generous gift to thank my uncle." Tuoba Hongye said humbly.
Tuobayan frowned, but remained calm. Although he had reached the junior level of Xuanzun, but the junior level of Xuanzun was on the side of the Central Empire, it was really nothing. He was an outer elder in a sect, but The monthly salary was not much. Although the Nanman Kingdom was only a small country, Tuoba Hongye was the ruler of a country after all, so the things he brought out should not be too bad.
"Nephew, you're being polite, just do your best for my uncle." Tuobayan said with a chuckle, showing his yellow teeth.
"When my uncle returns triumphantly, my nephew will definitely take over for my uncle!" Tuoba Hongye laughed loudly.
Surrounded by a crowd of courtiers, Tuobayan stepped onto the warship by the river, accompanied by nineteen masters, including two Heavenly Venerates and seventeen Earthly Venerables.
In terms of national power, the Nanman Kingdom surpassed the Xiwu Empire by a lot.
Watching the warship sail away slowly from the pier, Tuoba Hongye stood on the bank, his vigorous body like a gun straightened, the wind whistling, and the emperor's robes hunting, watching the warship disappear far away at the end of the river.
"In at most three years, we will be able to conquer the Xiwu Empire and the Eastern Plains kingdoms, and become proud! In another ten years, we will be able to enter the Central Empire!" Tuoba Hongye said indifferently, but his eyes were extraordinarily bright. To achieve this goal, he has expended countless efforts.
Standing next to Tuoba Hongye was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy who was also dressed in royal robes. He was Tuoba Yue, the prince of the Nanman Kingdom.
"Father, all the countries in the Eastern Plains have been conquered by us. Why do we want to enter the Central Empire? The Central Empire is full of experts. If we go there, we may have to bow down again and manage carefully. Isn't it good to be the supreme emperor here?" Tuoba Yue looked at Tuoba Hongye and asked in puzzlement.
"Yue'er, why do you think our Nanman Kingdom won, and why did the Xiwu Empire lose?" Tuoba Hongye smiled, looked at Tuoba Yue and asked.
"The Xiwu Empire has had zero talents in the past few hundred years, and our Nanman Kingdom has been in full swing, annexing other countries one after another, and the national strength has become stronger." Tuoba Yue said in a deep voice, "One is strong and the other is weak, and the Xiwu Empire will undoubtedly be defeated."
Tuoba Hongye shook his head, and said: "Wrong, a huge empire that has stood for thousands of years, can it be said to fall down?"
"Then why?" Tuoba became more puzzled.
"You only see the surface, but you don't see the deeper reasons. Since you are a prince, you should know some things." Tuoba Hongye pondered for a moment, and said with emotion, "Actually, Nanman Kingdom is not our Tuoba family. Take control."
Hearing Tuoba Hongye's words, Tuoba Yue was startled, and lost his voice: "It's so possible. The Tuoba family is the royal family of the Nanman Kingdom, and his father is the lord of the country. Who dares to take power and control the Nanman Kingdom?"
Tuoba Hongye touched Tuoba Yue's head, looked far into the distance, and said: "The one who controls Tuoba's family is a behemoth far away in the Central Empire, which is the sect your uncle belongs to." Three More than a hundred years ago, the sect that the Xiwu Empire relied on gradually declined and became a second-rate sect. However, our barbarian country happened to join the sect that your uncle belonged to, gained the support of that sect, and began to annex other countries. Three hundred years later, the Xiwu Empire fell to Sri Lanka, while the Nanman Kingdom gradually became stronger. Otherwise, why would there be so many sects in the Central Empire, and any one of them could easily destroy us, but they didn't come to usurp our land? Because we are nothing more than their pawns. As long as that behemoth does not fall, our Nanman Kingdom can sit back and relax, but once they fall, we will perish at any time. "
Tuoba Yue was shocked, he gradually understood why his father insisted on entering the Central Empire.
"Father often teaches children to rely on nephews and nephews, rely on everyone, and rely on themselves in everything!" Tuoba Yue clenched his fists and said solemnly.
"That's right, that's the reason." Tuoba Hongye narrowed his eyes slightly, wanting to play around with me, Tuoba Hongye, as a pawn. That would underestimate me, Tuoba Hongye. Nephew, it has been managed by several or even dozens of generations, sooner or later, the Tuoba family will be under your control, and at that time, you will lead the Tuoba family to become strong."
"My son will live up to my father's entrustment. Father, if we conquer the Xiwu Empire and make sufficient preparations to enter the Central Empire. There are many sects in the Central Empire, how can we gain a foothold in the Central Empire?" Tuoba said. Yue asked, among the Eastern Plains kingdoms, the Tuoba family was indeed very strong, but when they went to the Central Empire, they were ants that could be trampled to death by any sect.
"Well, I told you, I'm afraid you don't understand. The Central Empire has the rules of the Central Empire. In the world, there is a mysterious organization called the Hall of Law Enforcement. After entering the Central Empire, you will come into contact with it." , It’s too early to think about this now.” Tuoba Hongye hesitated to speak, and did not continue.
"The Hall of Law Enforcement? What kind of organization is that? What kind of rules are the rules of the Central Empire?" Tuoba Yue looked up at Tuoba Hongye suspiciously, but Tuoba Hongye remained silent.
The river ahead is rushing and rolling away.
The large boats of the Xiwu Empire went down the river, and after a day, they finally entered a vast and boundless sea area. Looking into the distance, the sea and the sky meet, endless.
The sea water is a pure and clean blue, and the sea breeze blows, which makes people feel refreshed.
As soon as it entered the sea, the little squid was very excited and danced.
"Little squid, do you want to play in the sea?" Xiaoyi asked when she saw the squid's appearance.
The little squid smiled and squinted its eyes, and kept nodding its head. The eight tentacles kept dancing, in the shape of a bogo.
"Little squid, will you not come back once you go?" Xiaoyi asked worriedly, with deep reluctance in her eyes.
The little squid thought for a while, then shook his head, followed Ye Chen, and took Soul Gathering Pill and Soul Condensation Pill every day, if it entered the sea, he would have to hunt by himself.
"Brother Ye Chen, tell them to drive the boat more slowly, and let the squid play in the sea." Seeing the squid shaking his head, Xiao Wing smiled happily and said to Ye Chen.
