Chapter 315 The Crown Jewel

It snowed heavily for two whole days, and the sky was always gloomy; the highways extending in all directions before the Qixia Kingdom were also deserted.

Ever since the great voyage came to an abrupt end, Qixia Kingdom's flimsy industry and commerce, which had just started, suffered a huge blow. Especially because of the death of the crown prince of the Zhongshan Kingdom, the surrounding countries took the opportunity to blockade the Qixia Kingdom together.

Although the Qixia Kingdom helped the Zhoushan Kingdom to keep the country, and although the Qixia Kingdom helped the Danyang Kingdom to consolidate its rule, but when it was time to turn their faces...these two countries did not hesitate.

The reason is simple: threats, interests!

Between countries, there are only interests, no friendship!

The country of Qixia is too strange, and it exudes a dangerous atmosphere everywhere, and the country of Danyang and the country of Zhoushan are the first to bear the brunt. On the other hand, if the country of Qixia can be overthrown, then the countries of Zhoushan and Danyang, which are the closest to the country of Qixia, will definitely benefit a lot!

This is a simple political account, so the countries came to a conclusion and jointly blocked the country of Qixia. Even if you just bought a lot of cheap pills from Qixia Kingdom. But now, they used these pills in the army to threaten Qixia Kingdom.

Not long after, even more infuriating news came: Danyang Kingdom leaked gunpowder, artillery and other information to Jinyang Kingdom, in exchange for two counties.

After the news spread, Qixia Kingdom was filled with anger. However... to no avail!

In such an atmosphere, Zhang Hao came to the imperial capital again to discuss the situation with Liu Xinyu.

"The two battleships are ready, the battleship Zhiyuan has been repaired, refitted and upgraded appropriately; the sailors of the Iron Duke are all ready.

After five days of preparation, we set off late at night. Set off quietly without letting anyone know.

At that time, His Majesty can say that we will attack the country of Yanyun, or the country of Zhoushan, or the country of Danyang, or counterattack the East, etc. according to the situation.

In short, His Majesty needs to buy time for this ocean exploration. We expect it will take at least four months, or even half a year. During this period, His Majesty may be under tremendous pressure. "

Liu Xinyu was a little silent after hearing Zhang Hao's words. Going south to explore, or crossing the green sea of ​​death, this is a road that no one has ever traveled - the end of the road is also unknown, whether you can come back is two things.

If it was the past, Liu Xinyu might have hesitated; but the blockade of the east has left Liu Xinyu and the entire country of Qixia with no choice. Now there is only one way—one way to darkness!

And when the warship departs, Qixia Country needs to maintain the stability of the country. Don't wait for the ship to come back, but suddenly find that the Qixia Kingdom has perished—and judging from the current situation, it is possible that this is not the case.

Also, during this period, the Zhang family and Dayang Group need to completely focus on the great voyage, even including the construction of new warships and so on. This requires the consumption of a large amount of resources, as well as manpower, material and financial resources. Without the leadership of the Dayang Group and the Zhang family, the Qixia Kingdom will be even more difficult for the time being, and foreign countries should not let go of this opportunity!

Finally, Zhang Hao said, "Once the countries confirm that our warships may go south and open up new routes, they will be even more frightened. At this time, the Qixia Kingdom is at its most vulnerable.

Until the ship does not return, the morale of our country will always remain low! "

"I understand!" Liu Xinyu nodded, "Are you going to go with the boat this time?"

"Yeah!" Zhang Hao also nodded slowly, "Since I'm going all out to explore, I have no reason not to follow the boat. At this time, I must set an example. The entire Dayang Group and businessmen across the country are watching me!"

"What about Daoist Master Mingxu?"

"No!" Zhang Hao's tone was a little low, "Master has returned to Xuanzhen Sect, I ask Master to go back and see if there is any way to help the Qixia Kingdom through this crisis.

I think, as long as we can get through this crisis, we will have a brighter future! We will control our own flight line, and no longer need to connect with others!

But to get through this crisis...it's not easy...my master may need to sit in the Green Bamboo Peak Dojo. "

Liu Xinyu got up slowly and looked at the map on the wall, which increased the navigation line; however, the map was only used for more than two months, and it temporarily lost its effectiveness. Just looking at such a map, Liu Xinyu was not reconciled, and held it tightly with both hands.

After a while, Liu Xinyu asked with an almost cold calmness: "Although we belong to the scope of Xuanzhen Sect, Xuanzhen Sect, and even the Holy Land, never directly intervene in the country's issues. Then, please Xuanzhen Sect to come forward, what are your preparations?" price?"

"I haven't said this yet. But I have prepared all the technologies of the Zhang family." Zhang Hao looked unhappy. But people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Although he is a disciple of Xuanzhen Sect, Taoist Master Mingxu has confirmed his status as an inner disciple. But after all, he is only a disciple of the foundation establishment period.

Liu Xinyu glanced at Zhang Hao, the map, and the crown. Shaking his head suddenly: "Technology must be in your own hands and must not be leaked! The country of Danyang is the best example.

Because we are good friends, friends, not only the country of Jinyang has obtained detailed information such as artillery, but also the country of Yanyun, and even the distant country of Qingyun. Future technology will inevitably diffuse completely.

And the Kingdom of Zhongshan had to declare that we assassinated the prince in order to fire up paper and technology, coupled with domestic pressure, etc.!

Well, sooner or later all their countries will regret it! "

After a short pause, Liu Xinyu continued, "Leave the negotiation with Xuanzhen Sect to me. The country still has something, which should satisfy Xuanzhen Sect."

Zhang Hao followed Liu Xinyu's gaze and saw the crown. To be exact, it is the orb the size of a pigeon egg on the crown!

"Your Majesty, you don't mean to..."

Liu Xinyu picked up the crown and gently stroked the orb. The orb was crystal clear, with a little bit of luster and a little bit of color flickering: "This is an innate spirit bead. It is said that the ancestors got it from Liuli Island in the north. It was in a fairyland. The location of spiritual energy was found.

There is a powerful energy in it, and even my grandfather dare not arouse it casually.

My grandpa said, this could be a...fairy stone! "

"Fairy Spirit Stone!" Zhang Hao was shocked.

"It's just possible! No one has ever seen a real fairy stone." Liu Xinyu gently stroked the orb, "The moment I put on the crown, I got the message in the crown. This is the first generation ancestor of Qixia Kingdom. Yes. At that time, there was no Qixia Kingdom as it is now, and that was more than three thousand years ago.

But as long as you wear the crown, you can slowly accept the nourishment of this orb, making it easier for people to break through the stage of transformation. This is the secret of the Qixia Kingdom's long-standing God Transformation period. "

"This is too precious! Can't use it!"

"No, it's because it's precious, so I'm using it now! I think the value of this orb...it's time to use it. Those technologies of the Zhang family are the real treasures.

A Heaven-Sealing and Land-Sealing Formation built with steel technology can kill two Transformation God Stages.

A battleship built with steel technology can bring back medicines that the Qixia Kingdom can't use up for several years.

Zhang Hao, you can't let the Zhang family pay for this country all the time! "

Zhang Hao frowned slightly. He heard the last sentence...Warning! Your Zhang family has always been so enthusiastic, I am not at ease!

Well, since we have talked about this, Zhang Hao doesn't say anything. As long as you are happy, empress, if you can use my Zhang family's technology, of course I am happy.

I don't want the queen to turn her head and say: "Zhang Hao, in the future, the steel battleship will penetrate the open sea, and you should find a better orb, right?"

"Yes, definitely will!" This is the only answer at this time. Of course, Zhang Hao also believed that he would find it.

Liu Xinyu smiled faintly, full of self-confidence and endless yearning. Zhang Hao was a little surprised by this smile. Liu Xinyu said calmly: "If I can find such an orb in the future, I will buy it at the price of Ninghe County.

Of course, before that..."

Liu Xinyu's eyes suddenly turned cold, "I want to unify the West!"

To unify the West, one Ninghe County is not enough. But of course Zhang Hao would not say such a 'truth', he just cheered Liu Xinyu up - we will definitely do it. As long as this voyage is successful!

Zhang Hao waited for three days in the new imperial capital Jianwu City, the branch of Dayang Group, and Daoist Mingxu finally returned. But this time, there was another person beside Daoist Master Ming Xu, an expert who looked calm and simple, but possessed a spirit of immortality.

Daoist Mingxu pulled Zhang Hao over to pay a visit: "This is my master, that is, your ancestor, Hong Yunzi. Come and meet me."

Master? Zhang Hao was taken aback, thinking that Master would bring a big person, but he didn't expect such a big person. Hurry up to meet her, and skillfully take out a gift from her bosom—a beautifully wrapped box.

The gifts Zhang Hao prepared this time were: 10 kg of black iron with a purity of 99.9%, 10 kg of red copper with a purity of 99.9%, 0.5 kg each of fine gold with a purity of 99.95%, and mithril. Also, a Shengshenghuadan.

Among them, black iron and red copper were independently refined by Huang Mingshan and others. The fine gold and mithril were refined by Zhou Xueyao using new chemical knowledge. The power of chemistry has been initially revealed. Of course, all of this is kept secret.

Hong Yunzi burst out laughing when he saw Zhang Hao take out the gift. "Ming Xu just said that you are a little cunning, that's true! However, since you have been apprenticed to the teacher, you haven't been to the Xuanzhen Sect's residence or Lingyin Mountain. You should go home when you have time!"

Zhang Hao said yes again and again.

After Hong Yunzi received the gift box, it was inconvenient to open it face to face, so he could only put it in the storage space temporarily, and then said to Zhang Hao: "Let's go, let's meet this queen. Ha, within the scope of Xuanzhen Sect, the first in history Empress, there are legends about her even within Xuanzhen Sect!

Really curious! "

Zhang Hao asked Liu Xinyu to be notified first, and he took Hong Yunzi and Daoist Mingxu with him, and the three walked towards the palace talking and laughing. Along the way, Zhang Hao introduced the brand new Jianwu City to Hong Yunzi.

Jianwu City is a city without walls, not the city it used to be. Compared with the past cities, such cities are more open and free. Even if Qixia Country's business is in depression, it can't cover up the prosperity of this new city.

The roads are wider than those in ordinary cities; simple overpasses have even appeared in some areas. The brackets of the overpass are mostly supported by I-beams. Of course, they are the ordinary "black steel" made of black iron, not the "black steel" made of black iron. Not afraid to steal.

There are new, multi-storey buildings everywhere. Some small buildings are even supported by I-beams. Although in Zhang Hao's eyes, it was still a bit crude, but in the eyes of Hong Yunzi and Daoist Ming Xu, they felt very shocked.

Liu Xinyu led the team and walked slowly along the street, and finally met Zhang Hao and the other three at a distance of one kilometer outside the palace. Liu Xinyu hurriedly got out of the car to greet them, and invited Hong Yunzi and Ming Xuzi to the luxurious carriage that followed.

Today, Liu Xinyu is dressed up, and the crown on her head is extraordinarily gorgeous.

As for Zhang Hao... he could only walk by himself.

When they arrived in the palace, Hong Yunzi went straight to the point: "Zhang Hao, Liu Xinyu, Ming Xu has already explained your requirements to me.

Zhang Hao, as your ancestor, we are also a family, so I will just say it straight. "

To speak frankly, but only in the stage of transforming gods have the confidence. Hong Yunzi gave Liu Xinyu and Zhang Hao time to think one by one before continuing:

"Actually, what Dongfang blocked this time is not only the Qixia Kingdom, but also the entire Xuanzhen Sect. This is a battle between the Free and Unfettered Sect and the Xuanzhen Sect, and the Qixia Kingdom is just involved. One of the first to bear the brunt.

Ordinarily, we should assist Qixia Country to open up the sea route. However, the internal situation of Xuanzhen Sect is also very complicated.

For example, Ming Xu came from Qixia Country, so his dojo was also in Qixia Country. And the rest of the countries also have representatives in Xuanzhen Sect, such as deacons and even elders of each Nascent Soul stage. And the more powerful the country, the more people there will be in Xuanzhen Sect.

This is a muddled account. Therefore, in the past, Xuanzhen Sect didn't care about the countries, because it couldn't control them at all. Such a way of not caring is beneficial to small countries. "

Liu Xinyu nodded, this is indeed the case.

Hong Yunzi continued: "But in the long run, the Xuanzhen Sect, and even almost all the holy places, have created a state of not interfering with other countries, and this state is very difficult to break.

Of course it is wrong to abide by the stereotypes, but once the stereotypes are broken, no one knows what the consequences will be.

As far as the current Qixia Country is concerned, I personally, even the head teacher, agree with it. But the sect's interior is intricate and complicated, and one trigger can affect the whole body. And there are indeed many people in the sect who agree with the proposal of Yanyun Kingdom.

Oh, there are also people in Yanyun Kingdom who walk around in the sect, they are much more active than you! "

Liu Xinyu and Zhang Hao's expressions darkened again. The enemy really is omnipotent!

After finishing speaking, Hong Yunzi looked at Liu Xinyu: "Your Majesty, the head teacher and I agree to protect the country of Qixia, but we cannot intervene casually due to outdated rules.

Therefore, Qixia Kingdom needs to give us a reason. This reason must be strong enough! It is enough for me, the head teacher and others to temporarily convince other opponents. "

Liu Xinyu took a deep breath, slowly took off the crown, and gently stroked the orb on it. "Master Dao, what do you think of this orb?

It is the jewel in the crown.

Most importantly, this... could be a fairy stone! A currently discovered, the only fairy stone that we know of! "
