Chapter 079 The Elegy Song of Chu Tomb
The land of Yangyang has many and complicated scenes, including towering mountains, endless flowing water, muddy swamps, endless deserts, or dense ancient forests...
This is the land of the Great Qin Empire, which also created an era of legendary hegemony. It is thousands of miles long and thousands of miles wide, and its territory is measured in years.
Under its iron cavalry, no matter how talented you are, as long as you disobey the rule of the Qin Dynasty, you will be turned into the ashes of history, turned into insignificant dust, and trampled under the feet of countless people.
Colorful names disappeared one after another in this world, hatred rose up here, and helplessness made people feel sad again and again. Their country was ruined and their family was ruined. They all chose to endure hardships and gathered in one place invariably——
Canghai City.
Canghai City is close to a vast sea, with blue waves rippling as always, and waves of varying heights lapping at the jagged rocks, just like the people living on land. Their talents are different from those of the city, resulting in different forms of reactions.
.
The buildings are scattered and distinct, the traffic is everywhere, the chickens and dogs hear each other, it is a prosperous scene, the people work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and they have long been accustomed to this kind of life.
In recent days, some strangers have appeared in the city, more than ten times more than before, which made everyone more vigilant. Until the entire east area of the city fell into the hands of these strangers, they all smelled something unusual.
——Something big happened!
As people came and went, they were all talking about speculations about this matter, or breaking shocking news:
"Do you know that a large number of strangers have recently come to our Canghai City in the city? They are all very rich and powerful. The city owner did not dare to offend them and sold the east area of the city to them, probably to Beijing.
Sir, it seems that something big is going to happen in Canghai City recently."
"What's this? I also know that the Lord of the City worked for them, respectfully, like a slave, and invited their big shots to the City Lord's Mansion for a banquet. However, he was rejected mercilessly and had to leave with a smile on his face.
, this is really a great place!”
"Tch, the news you know is all out of date. One of my classmates is working as an errand in the city lord's mansion. I have got the latest news. The big shot got a pretty girl the night before yesterday and he is in love with her.
Do you know who this beautiful lady is?"
"Tell me quickly, who is it? Could it be your wife?"
"If you whet our appetites at this juncture, we are no longer good friends. If you continue to lie, I won't treat you to a drink today. You can just drink sea water while guarding the little news in your heart."
"Yes, happiness is commonplace. It is better to be happy alone than to be happy together. What's the use of knowing it yourself? If we don't know, it's better not to know in the first place. You shouldn't say it and make us feel itchy.
, we are still not good brothers."
"What you said is absolutely true. You can eat and drink this news by yourself. If you continue to keep it secret, we won't be surprised."
"We are all brothers. If you are so unkind, can we still have fun?"
Under the urging and threats of several people, the man named Liu Xiaoer still chose to cooperate, because this was his bargaining chip in exchange for a good meal and a good meal today. Even if they did not threaten, under the influence of several of them,
I would still say it despite being urged.
Liu Xiaoer suddenly looked worried and scared. He looked forward and backward, then took them to a place with relatively sparse traffic, and began to discuss the confidentiality agreement with several of his friends, and said solemnly:
"What happened today is inside information, and it is also very important. I might be arrested by the officials and suffer punishment. I am taking a big risk. You must ensure that the information you heard today cannot be told.
Otherwise, everyone will have to endure jail time, do you understand?"
We are all classmates, and if we can gather together, we are naturally the same kind of people, belonging to the ranks of smart people. Therefore, they all nodded in unison and said in unison: "Don't worry, we understand!"
Liu Xiaoer felt relieved and saw that it was time to meet again. He looked at them and then said the chips slowly: "I can tell you, but you also know that I
Money is tight these days, so everyone is treated to a treat for a day, do you have any objection?"
They had long been accustomed to Liu Xiaoer's temperament, so they were not surprised. What was expected was:
"We have known for a long time that you want to play with this kind of insider exchange chips, and of course we have no objection to this."
"You don't believe me when you say you are unkind. Now you have brought it upon yourself. It is expected that you should tell us quickly. It will make our curiosity uncomfortable."
"Well, that's all you have. Can you find a pleasant way to play? Even if it's a novel method, it will make us seem like outsiders."
"I think it's time for us to break up with you, a foodie, so that our money and food will not be lost, and our right minds will not be hurt. This is the last time. If there is a next time, do you think we will pay attention to you?
A smooth-talking, smooth-talking charlatan."
Being exposed in this way, Liu Xiaoer also felt a little embarrassed. What they told were all exaggerated, obvious and blatant facts. He couldn't refute it, so he could only scratch his head and smile awkwardly: "Haha, it's all an accident, I promise it won't happen."
There will be a next time.”
After getting their affirmative answer, Liu Xiaoer asked them to gather around him, leaned forward and whispered, "The inside information this time is guaranteed to surprise you, you will never expect it.
This person was Luang Yan, the fiancée of Chu Tomb, the most talented person in Canghai City. The entire Chu family was killed because of her.
It is said that there is another person in the Chu family outside who was not killed. He is also in the Chu tomb. The Qin army sent people to secretly search everywhere. As long as there is news about him, report it immediately and you can get a generous reward of 10,000 gold. It will definitely be an instant
From the mortal world to heaven.
Of course, there is only one fate for the Chu Tomb - death without a burial place!"
Liu Xiaoer was talking, and several people were also listening. They were thinking about it with gusto, and did not notice that at the other end of the narrow alley, a beggar in ragged clothes walked towards them slowly with a hunched body.
.
The beggar was holding a dark crutch that was half a man's height. It was full of the smell of earth, and was mixed with the smell of decay. Matching his unkempt and slovenly appearance, his look of inferiority, and his pitiful eyes,
Almost everyone would consider him a veritable beggar.
Little did they know, he was the Chu Tomb Liu Xiaoer said, the former number one talent in Canghai City, and the only surviving descendant of the Chu family.
Chu Xiao knew that the Second Emperor was not just here for his fiancée, but also for his family heirloom - the Soul Conferring Jade.
It is said that the Soul Conferring Jade is a fairy gift from Penglai Immortal Island to the Chu family. It has fairy charm. When worn on the body, it can nourish the body, stabilize the soul, enhance vitality, and prolong life. It also has the function of preserving the soul for thousands of years.
destroy.
Most people have speculated that the Immortal Soul Jade contains immortal skills. As long as you can break the hidden restrictions, you can obtain the cultivation techniques, seek immortality, shed your mortal body, achieve a true immortal body, and rank in the immortal class.
, ascend to the ninth level of heaven, immortal.
This is a legend about the Penglai Immortal Island, and also the legend of the Soul-Sealing Jade. After the king of the Qin Empire unified the seven kingdoms, he was even more eager to meet the immortal, get his guidance, and achieve the great cause of longevity. Therefore, he planned the eastward tour.
, starting from Xianyang and ending in Canghai, the second prince was just the person he sent to supervise the construction of the palace.
As the saying goes, you can't have your cake and eat it too, but the second prince did the opposite. He wanted to take possession of both, which shows that he is ambitious, has the heart of a wolf, a tiger, and a leopard, and his greed can be said to be rampant.
disaster.
At present, the second prince has not made Sima Zhao's intentions known to the public because his strength is limited, so he uses Chu Xiao's fiancée as a tool to hide his intentions. Whether he is sincere or not is not yet known.
Hundreds of years have passed, and I don’t know why the secret about the Chu family’s possession of the Soul Conferring Jade was suddenly leaked out and reached the ears of the second prince, causing the Chu family to perish, leaving him alone in this world.
In the world, Chu Xiao is also very confused, who is this person?
Only he knows about the current Fengshen Soul Jade. It is not as mysterious as people's rumors. It is just a palm-sized jade pendant. Except for the faint word "Peng Lai" appearing on it when blood is dripped on it, other places are different from ordinary ones.
There is no difference between Hetian jade.
The only person Chu Xiao can't worry about now is his fiancée. He doesn't want to go to the city lord's palace to rescue her all the time. However, there are thousands of Daqin cavalry who came to Canghai City with the second prince. They are heavily guarded, like a solid fortress.
It's like a barrier. If ordinary people approach it, it's like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth, and they will inevitably die.
As an ordinary person, Chu Xiao hated that he was not strong enough to protect his relatives, hated that he had the so-called Soul Conferring Jade, which was of no use at all, and hated the person who passed on the secret.
If given the chance, he would definitely kill this person and make a blood sacrifice to the deceased members of the Chu clan in order to mourn their souls in heaven.
Chu Xiao held his cane, hunched his body, and lowered his head as he slowly passed by Li Xiaoer and the others. Li Xiaoer and the others kept silent to avoid the news leaking out, and turned around and left with the others.
