Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 947: The Rebellious Son and the Good Son
The largest mountain on Qingshui Lake was casually named Qingshui Mountain by Zhou Xu.

This Qingshui Mountain divides the Qingshui Lake into two parts to a large extent. Only by moving to the westernmost position can one follow the outer waterway, bypass this Qingshui Mountain, and reach the large lake outside their Black Moon City.

At the same time, it can be basically confirmed at this stage that when Zhou Xu set out on a hot air balloon to explore the lake in Black Moon City, the mountain that blocked his vision that he saw from afar in the air was the mountain in front of him at this moment.

At that time, due to problems with the hot air balloon fuel, they did not get close and turned back immediately.

Otherwise, this waterway could have been opened directly at that time, which would have saved a lot of trouble.

However, the limitations were there at the time, and it is useless to talk about it now after the fact.

Thinking of this, looking at Qingshui Mountain which was getting closer and closer to him, Zhou Xu couldn't help but show some emotion.

Following the route that had been determined long ago, the ship continued sailing in an orderly manner around Qingshui Mountain.

He remembered that he was in the hot air balloon and saw many traces of primitive tribal life on the shore of Qingshui Mountain.

Of course, it’s gone now.

Their Great Zhou's exploration team had already completed basic exploration of the mountains and islands on the Qingshui Lake. Basically, all the primitive tribes living in these places had been incorporated by them.

The number is not large, all together there are only two or three hundred people. For the current Great Zhou, it is easy to arrange them.

As for a more detailed and in-depth exploration, it depends on whether he has time later.

That's right, this matter really needs to be done by him personally.

Their current exploration work in the Great Zhou is divided into two parts: basic exploration and in-depth exploration.

The biggest difference between the two is that in-depth exploration requires the use of the "Eye of Secrets".

Currently, many relevant staff members in their Great Zhou possess the 'Eye of Insight', but only two people possess the 'Eye of Peering into Secrets'.

One is Zhou Xu himself, and the other is Ye Jinghong, who is now the director of the Inspection Department.

Compared with the 'Eye of Insight', the 'Eye of Secrets' is more powerful, so Zhou Xu naturally cannot give it to anyone at will.

The most important point in obtaining the 'Eye of Secrets' is to have enough loyalty. With this as a prerequisite, and if you meet the requirements of the spiritual star level, you can obtain it.

After all, compared to the 'Eye of Insight', the consumption of the 'Eye of Secrets' is much greater.

Without a three-star level spiritual attribute to back it up, one would not have the basic ability to use it to complete related work.

Loyalty and spirit star level, these two requirements seem simple, but it is not easy to find people who meet these two requirements.

Originally, he could have completely handed over this in-depth exploration work to Ye Jinghong.

However, this time his move back to Black Moon City had a relatively large impact.

When he was in charge of the imperial palace in Xianyang City, the New South District was naturally stable, but now that he has left, there is no guarantee that some guys will not have some ulterior motives.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, before leaving, Zhou Xu specifically instructed Ye Jinghong to keep a close eye on the situation here, and appointed the equally trustworthy Li Ce as the commander-in-chief of the New South District.

In this way, after all this process, doesn't this job fall on his shoulders?

However, Qingshui Mountain is the only big mountain on Qingshui Lake, and the others are small islands. Zhou Xu estimated that if he could find some time, he should be able to finish it in no more than a month.

As his thoughts raced, Xuan Yu, who had been wandering around in the sky for a while, flew back.

This time, the rebellious son did not land on his head, but landed on the deck in front of Zhou Xu.

During this time, Zhou Xu saw at a glance the branch about forty to fifty centimeters long that it was holding in its mouth.

[Why did he bring back a branch? What's wrong with this rebellious boy today?] Just as Zhou Xu was thinking this, Xuan Yu, who had landed on the deck, suddenly flapped his wings and took off at an astonishing speed.

At the same time, a burly figure pounced into the air with a thud, then looked up at Xuan Yu flying into the sky and let out a slightly annoyed growl.

It’s Qiansui!

This time when he went back, Zhou Xu brought Qiansui with him.

The main reason why Qiansui was brought here from the grassland was to capture the New South District and to gain more combat power.

There is not much to say about what happened later. He basically lived in the imperial palace in Xianyang City for a long time, while Qiansui lived quite comfortably in the mountains.

Before setting off this time, Zhou Xu went to the mountains to ask it if it wanted to go back to the grassland. If it did, it could just go with him on the boat.

Needless to say, Chitose said hello to the wind weasel in the mountains and left.

As an extraordinary creature, Qiansui has a strong ability to adapt. Although he is not uncomfortable living in these mountains, for Qiansui, the grassland is his home and he still wants to go back.

However, what it didn't expect was that when it turned around, it found a mixed-race bird appearing beside its old father, trying to shake its position as the crown prince!

Coupled with the natural hunting instinct of cats towards birds, every time they meet, Xuan Yu always stimulates Qiansui's appetite.

If it had not been afraid of smashing the deck, its attack would have been much more swift.

After dodging Qiansui's attack, Xuan Yu turned his head and flapped his wings to land on his head, causing Zhou Xu, who was watching the show, to turn pale.

"rebellious son"

During this process, Qiansui was also very angry.

In its opinion, the mixed-feathered bird was too cunning. It obviously knew that as long as it landed on Zhou Xu, it would be powerless to deal with it.

At this time, Zhou Xu naturally stood on the side of his eldest son.

He reached out and grabbed the rebellious son.

If you take action yourself, you will basically hit the target every time.

Of course, he knew what was going on, but this rebellious son just didn't hide.

"What the hell is this?"

Zhou Xu muttered as he took the branch out of Xuan Yu's mouth, then threw Xuan Yu aside and let it play by itself.

He is now considered a superb wizard, and his perception of certain energies has become more sensitive.

As soon as Zhou Xu picked up the branch, he immediately felt a hint of unusual breath from it.

There is actually energy contained in this branch. The energy is not strong, and can even be said to be subtle, but it is full of vitality.

This discovery made Zhou Xu instantly realize that the branch that Xuan Yu brought back was extraordinary.

Even when broken, the leaves still maintain their vibrant green color.

When such a branch was placed in front of him, he always felt that it looked familiar.

However, he did not indulge in random thoughts on his own, but simply used the truth on it.
