I practiced magic in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 28 I Will Raise Your Wife and Mother
Yingchuan Yangdi, Shuijing Villa.

The Bronze Crow moved without wind. Sima Zheng, who was meditating in silence, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the Jiuzhou Fengshui Map hanging behind him.

Looking at a small burnt spot on the map, Sima Zheng looked solemn. He took out a communication talisman and sent out a divine thought.

Soon, the communication talisman ignited without fire and sent back a divine thought, which was Tiansi.

"What's the matter?"

"Something happened in Chenggao."

"Chenggao? Could it be that something went wrong with Xiang Yu's strategy before Hulao Pass?"

"The inheritance of Jiufeng has been taken away."

"This is impossible. Yaoguang Pojun has not yet responded to the call. Who can take the inheritance that Xiang Yu left behind?"

"Wang Jing."

"..."

After a long silence, Tian Si couldn't help cursing: "This brat is really causing trouble for me!"

Tian Si and Sima Zheng both knew the inside story of this inheritance.

In the fourth year of the Han Dynasty, Xiang Yu captured Xingyang and executed its defenders Zhou Ke and Cong Gong.

Afterwards, they chased Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang all the way and captured Chenggao. Although the Han army was defeated in this battle, Liu Bang fled to Gong County in a panic.

But in the end, Xiang Yu was still blocked by the heavy troops coming to his rescue from the Han State and could no longer advance.

At that time, Xiang Yu already had a vague premonition that the destiny was with Han and not with Chu, so at the instigation of Jiufeng, he deliberately left nine sword inheritances in front of Hulao Pass.

As proud as the Overlord was, he left his moves on the wall, not to find a successor or to make a comeback in the future, but simply to prove that he had been there, and had dominated the world without any rivals.

What many people don’t know is that in addition to the Overlord’s unparalleled sword intent, what was left in the sword mark was also a trace of Jiufeng’s divine consciousness.

The Nine Phoenixes are the guardian beasts worshipped by the State of Chu. Even among the many immortal birds, they are at the top of the list. Not to mention that the people of Chu have supported the Nine Phoenixes with the luck of their country for more than 800 years. Even a wisp of their divine thoughts has immeasurable value, and it can be called a heaven-defying opportunity.

But this opportunity has an owner, and the owner is naturally Jiufeng hidden behind the scenes.

For a being of Jiufeng's high rank, most of the rare treasures in the world are worthless. The only thing worthy of his attention is the fortune of the dynasty.

Therefore, the opportunity left in front of Hulao Pass was reserved by Jiufeng specifically for the genius of the human race that he favored. As a loser who was one step away from victory in the Chu-Han contention, he was obviously unwilling to accept this and wanted to find another hero like Xiang Yu who was qualified to compete for the Central Plains.

At worst, at least you can establish your own regime and become the king.

As a result, before the battle for supremacy even began, the inheritance was taken away by someone...

Sima Zheng was quite worried about this: "You should know Jiufeng's temper. She has been setting up the situation for nearly four hundred years, and the opportunity she deliberately left was taken by someone without asking..."

Tian Si held his forehead with his hand and said, "Stop talking. I'll just go to Nanjun."

Nanjun of Jingzhou, the territory of Jiangling.

This place was once the capital of the Chu State, Yingdu. Because it is located in the south of Ji Mountain, it was named Jinan after the Han Dynasty.

There is a mountain outside Jinan City.

The mountains are majestic, magnificent, steep and beautiful.

At the northwest corner of the mountain city, there is a canyon with a mountain stream that winds for about ten miles. On both sides are green pines and cliffs, with waves of forest waves, mountains and waters complementing each other, and the scenery is picturesque.

Tiansi used the method of spiritual travel, and his spiritual mind traveled thousands of miles across mountains and rivers. In just a few hours, he arrived here and stopped at the entrance of the canyon.

"An old friend is coming to visit, please do not turn him away, Lord."

It took only a moment for Si Neng to transmit the message before the birds in the valley flew away in fright. Then an overbearing and arrogant divine thought swept over, stirring up a murderous aura, and a clear and distant female voice was heard.

"It's you!"

"You helped that thief Liu to attack Chu in the past and ruined my plan. How dare you appear before me today? You are so brave!"

The female voice is beautiful and soaring, with nine sounds coming out one after another, like the sound of nature.

Tian Si heard the voice and felt the overwhelming anger in it, but he did not panic at all. Instead, he sneered and said, "There were some grudges in the past, but now the years have passed, and hundreds of years have passed in a hurry. I believe that the Holy Lord is magnanimous and will not be petty about this."

"Humph, you don't need to remind me, I can afford to lose!"

With a clear shout, the mountain protection formation began to flow layer by layer, and the jade trees and fragrant grasses bloomed one after another.

"Come in if you dare."

Tian Si smiled and stepped straight in.

The valley is quite different from the outside world. Everywhere you look, it is filled with spiritual energy and abundant vital energy. It is truly a blessed place.

Rare and exotic animals can be seen everywhere, chasing and playing in the mountains and forests. The beauty of the scenery is hard to find in the world.

In the center of the valley, on a huge phoenix tree, a gigantic phoenix lies coiled on it. Its pair of golden eyes look down upon the world. Its body is covered in clouds and it controls colorful divine light. It has nine souls in one body. It is none other than the Nine Phoenix, the guardian beast of the Chu State worshipped in the past.

In ancient times, Jiufeng once stood beside the Black Emperor. Until now, no one knows how many years he has gone through.

Since the destruction of the State of Chu and Xiang Yu's suicide at the Wujiang River, Jiufeng has been staying in seclusion in the Qixia Palace, waiting for the right opportunity, and called himself the Holy Lord of Jiuling.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Jiufeng did not give Tiansi a good look.

Tian Si didn't really care: "Holy Lord, it's not a big deal..."

Just as Tian Si was about to explain his intentions, Jiu Feng suddenly sensed something and flew into a rage: "How dare you take my inheritance without asking? You are so brave!"

Suddenly, there was thunder and lightning in Qixia Palace.

When the emperor was angry, blood flowed everywhere and millions of corpses were killed.

When the gods are angry, the sky will change suddenly and all things will be frightened.

When Jiufeng was about to spread his wings and fly high across a thousand miles to kill the thief and retrieve the inheritance of divine thoughts, he saw Tiansi blocking his way.

"Please Lord, calm down your wrath for now. This situation may not be hopeless."

Jiufeng already disliked Tiansi, and after hearing this, she felt even more unhappy: "Humph, so this little thief is your man?"

As for Tian Si, he obviously didn't want to explain too much, so he just replied with an ambiguous repetitive answer: "Not yet."

Jiu Feng looked disdainful: "You want to protect him?"

"I'm just trying my best."

"Hmph, can your meager strength stop me?"

The Nine Phoenix flapped its wings, and suddenly a strong wind and waves of fire were stirred up. Its power was so great that it seemed like a punishment from heaven.

He boasted of his noble status and powerful strength, so he always acted in a domineering manner. If it weren't for the extraordinary origin of the Tiangong organization, he would have already sent a beam of divine light to scare away the divine thought sent by Tiansi.

It was only the clones that came, so Tian Si was naturally not afraid of Jiufeng, so when he responded, he was neither humble nor arrogant: "I am just a humble person, so I can't defeat the Saint Lord's overwhelming power. But the person who took away the inheritance is not without background. The skill he practiced is "Nine Refinements of True Yang". This skill has a great origin, it was bestowed by the Phoenix Lord, and it has a deep connection with the Feather Clan."

"Don't even think about using Feng Jun to scare me!"

Jiufeng's golden eyes were filled with anger, but her body was very honest and she no longer shouted for war and killing like she did just now.

Tian Si did not continue to provoke the other party, but made the relationship clear: "The battle for supremacy has not yet begun, so why should the Holy Lord fight against his own family? The Phoenix Lord established the Zhou Dynasty for 800 years after his death in Mount Qishan, and then he did not make any moves. As for the Wang family of Taiyuan, I think it is just because of a little friendship that they..."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense."

Obviously, Jiufeng is quite wary of Feng Jun. After all, the other party was the Phoenix Ming of Mount Qishan, set up a plan for the ages, defeated King Zhou and destroyed the Shang Dynasty, and changed the world.

In comparison, I can only live in Chu. No matter the pattern, courage or ability, I am far from him, so it is naturally difficult for me to be tough.

In the end, Jiu Feng finally gave in, but she was still very stubborn: "My things are not so easy to take."

"Don't worry, Holy Lord. The Heavenly Palace is not unreasonable. We are willing to make compensation."

First threats, then bribery. Before coming, Tian Si had already thought about how to settle the matter. Therefore, when facing Jiu Feng, he was never panicked because everything was under control.

He slowly said, "The Xihuang Festival will be held again soon. The Holy Lord can send someone to participate. He will definitely be able to occupy one of the four finalists."

Jiu Feng was silent at first, weighing the pros and cons in her mind, and finally chose to accept, but she put forward another condition: "For the final reward, I want a thousand-thread white lotus root." "Yes"

Tian Si was too lazy to bargain and agreed directly.

At this time, Wang Jing, who didn't know that he had escaped a disaster, was drinking in the city with a depressed look on his face.

In the tavern, Guo Jia looked out the window: "It's almost sunset, what does Yuan Xu feel?"

"Feng Xiao, you are bringing up something irrelevant!"

Wang Jing seemed a little exasperated. He originally thought that the sword intent left by the Overlord in front of Hulao Pass was a bargain he had picked up for free. But after picking it up, he realized that there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world!

Every gift from fate has already been secretly marked with a price.

And this adventure may very well cost him his life.

Seeing Wang Jing's gloomy face, Shi A laughed heartily: "I have learned swordsmanship for ten years and have seen countless swordsmen, but all of them combined are not even one-tenth as good as you, Yuan Xu. You have broken through the Nine-foot Sword Intention in one day. It won't be long before you become famous all over the world, and you can die without regrets."

Even Shan Fu, who had been wearing a bamboo hat, gently patted Wang Jing on the shoulder and showed him an empathetic expression: "I thought it was miserable enough that I killed someone and was wanted by the government, but I didn't expect that you, Yuan Xu, are even more miserable than me."

Guo Jia coughed twice, then smiled and said, "That's right. It's not easy to escape the pursuit of the imperial court, let alone avoid the pursuit of a god."

The more Wang Jing listened, the more upset he felt: "Stop talking, it makes me sick."

After saying that, he grabbed the wine jug, poured it directly into his mouth, and began to drown his sorrows in wine.

However, although Wang Jing is a weakling, he will not give up resistance and wait for death.

He placed his hand on the hilt of the knife and cursed fiercely, "What if it's a god? At most, blood will splatter five steps! I really want to see if gods can bleed!"

Upon hearing this, Guo Jia, Shan Fu and Shi A cheered for Wang Jing in unison, "That's great!"

"Yuan Xu is so courageous!"

"Haha, you dare to be the enemy of the gods. You are worthy of being the one who can inherit the Overlord Sword Intent. I have never been convinced by anyone in my life, but I am convinced by your mouth. You are so tough."

Shi Azhen praised Wang Jing sincerely, saying that he was chivalrous and righteous, and he always acted frivolously and fearlessly.

But if Shi Aru and Wang Jing were asked to dare to look down upon the gods, he would definitely not be able to do it.

After all, the legends of gods and the study of prophecies and divinations had already penetrated into every aspect of the Han Dynasty. Moreover, the Nine Phoenix was not some small god in the mountains, but a guardian bird of the Chu State that once dominated the Central Plains.

In the tavern, Wang Jing waited all night, just waiting for dawn.

But until the sun rose, nothing happened.

Shi A, Guo Jia, Shan Fu and the people from the Wang family of Taiyuan, who had been on high alert, all breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as they passed Hulao Pass and entered the Sili area, even a powerful god like Jiufeng would not dare to risk the world's condemnation and come to Luoyang in person to take Wang Jing's life.

There is no other reason. Luoyang is the capital of the Han Dynasty. Any ghosts and gods in the world who dare to come and make trouble will be suppressed by the dragon energy and have no choice but to die.

"Jing, thank you all for your help."

Wang Jing bowed to Guo Jia, Shan Fu and Shi A. Although these three had mocked and teased him a lot when he was drinking the "beheading wine" last night, at that time, they were willing to stay and drink with him, which was already a friendship of life and death.

Guo Jia sneered: "Yuan Xu comes from a famous family, is extremely talented, and has extraordinary courage. Such heroes are rare in the world. How can I not make friends with him?"

At this time, Guo Jia had just turned 19 years old and had not yet had his coming-of-age ceremony, but he already had great ambitions.

He had been studying secretly at home in his early years. Now, when he heard that the emperor had passed away, he left Yingchuan and wanted to come to Luoyang to take a look, and by the way, secretly make friends with heroes and accumulate connections.

As for Shi A, he also took a fancy to the reputation of Taiyuan Wang family and wanted to follow Wang Jing and make a career for himself.

Shan Fu had killed someone and was currently being wanted by the government. Everywhere he went, there was chaos and he had not even had time to change his name to Xu Shu.

In order to escape death, Wang Jing also wanted to recruit Shan Fu. After all, he was a top strategist who was highly valued by Zhuge Liang.

"Yuanzhi, do you have a place to go?"

Shan Fu shook his head and sighed, "The name Shan Fu is no longer acceptable. I plan to change my name to Xu Shu. As for the future, I'll just go with the flow."

Wang Jing was waiting for this sentence, and immediately invited him: "Yuanzhi has the talent to help the world, how can he die in the hands of the jailer? I think it would be better if I introduce you to a famous teacher. With your talent, there is no need to worry that you can't become a pillar of society."

After hearing this, Xu Shu was moved.

He acted on impulse this time to avenge his friend, but after killing someone, he thought of his mother at home who had been crying all day because of him and was so worried that she couldn't sleep. Xu Shu felt extremely regretful.

If possible, he only wants to go out to study, and never wield a sword again, and just fight with others every day.

"Who is the famous teacher Yuan Xu recommended?"

"Yuanzhi, have you ever heard of Mr. Shuijing's name?"

Xu Shu was stunned. He never expected that Wang Jing was so powerful that he could even invite Sima Zheng. Therefore, he looked excited: "The name of Xuanzong Wuxiang is well-known! Does Yuanxu know Mr. Decao?"

Wang Jing shook his head: "I don't know him."

Xu Shu: “…”

"Haha~"

Wang Jing stopped teasing Xu Shu and said seriously, "Don't worry, Yuanzhi. I will ask my father to write a letter to recommend you. I believe Mr. Shuijing will still be willing to give me some face as the Wang family of Taiyuan."

Upon hearing this, Xu Shu immediately bowed to Wang Jing and said, "I will be deeply grateful for your kindness and will never forget it."

Wang Jing quickly helped him up and said, "Why should we be so formal with each other? As for your mother's matter, Yuanzhi can rest assured. Jing will invite her to our home to take care of her and treat her with respect like an elder."

Since Wang Jing already knew that Xu Shu was very filial to his mother, he naturally played the emotional card and took the opportunity to win people's hearts.

As expected, after hearing this, Xu Shu became even more grateful to Wang Jing. The strong young man, who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, burst into tears in front of everyone.

"Well, they say men don't cry easily, Yuanzhi, stop being such a little girl. Yesterday we just met by chance, but you were very loyal and didn't abandon me, right? This shows that this is fate. Come, I will use this wine to practice for you. A bright future is waiting for you in the future."

"Okay, I appreciate your words."

Xu Shu took the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.

Shi A and Guo Jia also saw Wang Jing's move to win over Xu Shu. They both nodded secretly, knowing that Xu Shu would probably remember this favor for the rest of his life.

After dealing with Xu Shu, Wang Jing did not forget to win over Shi A and Guo Jia.

It is not difficult to deal with Shi A, but it is difficult to deal with Guo Jia.

Wang Jing knew how resourceful and talented this seemingly lazy young man was. When Cao Cao first started his army, it was thanks to his planning and strategy that he was able to gain a foothold successfully.

It’s a pity that Guo Jia is not someone who can be moved by emotions.

He was very opinionated and would choose a wise leader for himself. Otherwise, he would not have abandoned Yuan Shao and chosen Cao Cao in history.

However, since Guo Jia cannot be defeated for the time being, it is still necessary to maintain a good relationship with him. Wang Jing even hopes that he can be included in Guo Jia's list of candidates for selection as a wise leader.

"The world is about to be in chaos, does Fengxiao have any plans for the future?"

Guo Jia could tell that Wang Jing was plotting against him, but at this moment, he had not yet decided who to pledge allegiance to, so he politely declined, "Don't worry, no matter how chaotic the situation is, we must not lose our footing. I want to walk a little further and see."

"That's fine."

Wang Jing heard Guo Jia's polite refusal and knew that there was really no chance at this time, so he did not continue to do useless work. Instead, he had nothing better to do, so he discussed the general situation of the world with Guo Jia.

Afterwards, Wang Jing became curious about the technique that Guo Jia was practicing: "The sword intent left by the Overlord is usually only useful for swordsmen and swordsmen, but I didn't see any swords on Feng Xiao."

Guo Jia coughed twice, then took out a few black and white chess pieces from his arms, and said with a smile: "Jia was fortunate enough to see the fragments of the "Star God Canon". This book was written during the Qin Dynasty, under the order of the First Emperor. The content is all-encompassing, and there are many star formations, which contain military tactics and formations. I occasionally realized something, and just now I created a technique, named "Yitian Sword Art"."

Get it, realize the skill by yourself!

Another unreasonable genius!

Wang Jing couldn't help but sigh, this guy is really an amazing person who is born with plug-ins. Compared with Guo Jia, he has to make his own plug-ins manually. Bad review!

"Holding chess like a sword, Yi Tian fights for victory. Feng Xiao is indeed very courageous and brave."

"Yuan Xu, you are too kind. You have inherited the Overlord Sword Intent. When you perfect the Divine Feather Sword Scripture, there will be very few people in the world who can rival you."
