Chapter 77 The First Night
"Hello, fourth brother."
Qin Jun nodded indifferently. As for Qin Yu, he ignored him. He saluted to Grand Tutor Jia Xun and said, "Hello, Grand Tutor Jia. Sorry to have kept you waiting."
Although he had a limited liking for Jia Xun, he had to say that Jia Xun's ability to govern the world was indeed powerful. Otherwise, the Qianyue Kingdom would not have been able to withstand Emperor Qian's decades-long war plan.
If a kingdom wants to conquer the four directions, the domestic food, resources, etc. must keep up with the pace, and these must rely on the people as coolies, so peace and prosperity are the foundation of a strong country.
"King Yue is polite. Since everyone is here, we should set off. Get in the car."
Jia Xun bowed and smiled. There were four luxurious carriages next to them. As the royal family of the kingdom, they naturally could not walk there. Jia Xun was also a Grand Tutor, so the four of them each had a carriage.
Qin Jun directly picked the last carriage, took Daji's hand and walked over, and Xiaotian Dog followed behind happily.
"Hmph! Bringing a woman to the Qianlong Martial Arts Contest is like a useless piece of shit!"
Qin Yu snorted coldly, while Qin Yun beside him was staring at Daji infatuatedly. His soul was distracted by her peerless beauty that brought disaster to the country and the people.
Although Qin Yu had heard some rumors about Daji, he did not believe that Daji was really that powerful. In his opinion, the person who killed Xiahou En must be Guan Yu, and the humiliation at Luoya Inn was also deliberately arranged by Qin Jun.
The more he thought about it, the more he hated it. He brushed his sleeves and walked towards the front carriage, and the Blood Knife King followed closely behind him.
Jia Xun couldn't help but frown. Logically, he should sit in the front carriage. After all, he was highly respected in the kingdom, so when he saw Qin Yu occupy the first carriage first, he was immediately displeased.
Qin Jun didn't care about the strange looks of the guards at all, and pulled Daji into the carriage, while Xiaotian Dog lay on the wooden board outside the carriage. As a demon king, it was also lazy.
The team began to move forward. A total of fifty guards protected the four carriages and drove towards the East Gate in a mighty manner, causing the people along the way to talk about it.
"The palace guards, there must be important people in the four carriages!"
"It seems that they are going to participate in some kind of Qianlong martial arts competition..."
"I have heard that it is said that it is a martial arts competition held by the Nanzhuo Dynasty, which is specifically for selecting talents."
"Nanzhuo Dynasty? Is it also an ally of our kingdom?"
"You think too much. We, the Qianyue Kingdom, can't even be dogs for them!"
The reputation of the Nanzhuo Dynasty gradually began to spread. The royal family has not participated in the Qianlong martial arts competition held every three years for twenty years, because Emperor Qian had a son in middle age, and the older generation of royal family members pursued fame and fortune and did not participate.
The three major sects and other family forces will also send people to participate, but very few, because rashly participating in the Qianlong martial arts competition will kill people!
The news that the King of Yue, the Fourth Prince, and the Fifth Prince were going to the Nanzhuo Dynasty to participate in the Qianlong Martial Arts Competition spread like wildfire. The news was getting bigger and bigger. It was obvious that someone was pushing it. If the three Qin Jun failed, it would be a loud slap in the face of the royal family.
Imperial Palace, Qianzhen Hall.
"Have they set out?" Emperor Qian asked casually while examining the twists and turns.
Standing in front of him was Shen Yan, the general manager of the palace. He bent down and smiled, "I guess they have already left the city gate."
"Do you think it would be too cruel for me to do this?" Emperor Qian asked helplessly after changing his tone.
Shen Yan couldn't help but narrow his eyes and chuckled, "Your Majesty, you are choosing the lord of the kingdom, so you naturally can't be soft-hearted. Taizu didn't have a soft heart at the beginning."
When Taizu was mentioned, Emperor Qian couldn't help but fall silent.
After a long time, he waved his hand and said, "Go down, and continue to spread the news about the Qianlong Martial Arts Competition. I hope that the right person can be selected for this competition."
"Yes." Shen Yan bowed respectfully and then retreated quietly.
…
The sun sets in the west.
Qin Jun and his companions have entered the mountains. Seeing that it is getting darker and it is not suitable to travel, the team stopped and some guards began to build firewood.
Qin Jun, sitting on the step of the carriage, couldn't help but sigh. Although there is no immortal cultivation on Earth, the technology is just as powerful. At least the scene like now is not so boring.
Since it is boring, let's practice with the gun!
After thinking about it, Qin Jun suddenly stood up, walked to an empty space with no one, took out the Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Gun and danced, attracting the attention of Qin Yu and others.
"Does that gun really weigh five thousand pounds?" Qin Yun asked with a smack of his tongue. Just by listening to the sound of Qin Jun swinging the gun, he could feel the terrifying weight.
Qin Yu snorted coldly, but did not speak. He still knew himself. If he confronted Qin Jun now, Qin Jun would let him try his hand later, which would be a tragedy!
Jia Xun also stared at Qin Jun in surprise. He didn't expect Qin Jun to have such a mighty side.
As the night gradually fell, the team split into three groups. Qin Jun and Jia Xun gathered around a bonfire, while Qin Yu and Qin Yun separated. The guards sat at the outermost edge, always alert to the surrounding environment.
Qin Jun ate barbecue by himself, without any intention of chatting with Jia Xun.
It was the first day out of the capital, so there shouldn't be any danger.
With this thought in mind, Qin Jun acted very calm.
On the contrary, Qin Yu and Qin Yun were a little nervous. It was the first time for them to leave the capital, and they were sleeping outdoors, so they were naturally nervous.
Most of the territory of Qianyue Kingdom has not been occupied by humans, and the existence of monsters is common. This is also the case in other kingdoms, and sometimes there are even incidents of beasts attacking cities.
The night was quiet. After a simple dinner, everyone began to rest. Qin Jun asked Daji to go back to the carriage to sleep, while he and Xiaotian Dog leaned outside the carriage.
"Why don't you talk nonsense tonight?" Daji asked jokingly.
Qin Jun shrugged and smiled, "Now is an extraordinary period. We must not only guard against monsters, but also against people."
Having said that, Daji was still very moved. Where is the example of a prince letting his men sleep in the carriage and guarding outside?
But Qin Jun was very persistent, and Daji was no longer reserved.
Time passed quietly.
The stars in the night sky became brighter and brighter.
"Awoo--"
I don't know when, a wolf howl suddenly sounded, scaring everyone awake from their sleep.
Qin Jun stood on the pedal and looked around. The wolf howl just now was extremely oppressive. Even though he was at the eighth level of the foundation building realm, he was a little nervous.
Damn it!
Encountered a powerful monster right after coming out?
Qin Jun was furious, but he was not nervous at all. The Roaring Sky Dog at his feet was still crawling on the ground, half-closed his eyes, and obviously didn't care.
Daji in the carriage did not come out, but made Qin Jun more relieved. With two super bodyguards next to him, gods come to kill gods and monsters come to kill monsters!
Qin Yu and others were different. They drew their weapons one by one and were extremely nervous.
The guards surrounded them to prevent danger from coming suddenly.
"Awoo--"
The wolf howl sounded again, louder than before, and it was obviously approaching them.
"All guards, prepare for battle."
The captain of the guards shouted in a deep voice. He has the cultivation of the fifth level of the foundation building realm and is considered an upper-class existence among the guards.
The third update!!!
