Crossing the Continent of Kings: Under the Valkyrie Zhongli

Xishi looked a little sad. She knew she was from the Southern Wilderness, but she really didn't have any sense of belonging to the Southern Wilderness. Now that Ying Zheng was about to send troops to conquer the Southern Wilderness, she always felt sad, but not that sad.

It’s hard to describe how embarrassing it is, let’s use an analogy:

It's like suddenly knowing that Yue Fei's anti-gold resistance is from his own Heilongjiang people;

Feeling that Huo Qubing is nb, but suddenly finds that he is an Inner Mongolian from the Huns;

I was still scolding Wu Huan Hua on the front foot, but found out that I was a Xinjiang native from Xianbei who entered Han;

He has always regarded himself as a descendant of Yan and Huang, but found that Chi You is his ancestor from Shandong.

(The above is just for fun. After the national integration, most people have nothing to do with the history of the place before their residence, but it’s better to ask the family members. Don’t be embarrassed when you find out that the Nanman is actually me.)

Zhong Fei also saw Xi Shi's sadness, and patted her on the shoulder. Xi Shi also came back to his senses, and stole a 'reassuring' look at Zhong Fei.

Ying Zheng asked again: "Meng Tian, ​​have you ever found out the background of the woman who assassinated me a few days ago?"

Meng Tian bowed and confessed, "This minister is incompetent, I haven't found out yet."

Ying Zheng pondered for a while, then helped Meng Tian up, and said: "It's okay, I think it's just a remnant of the Six Kingdoms with little fame, don't blame yourself."

Afterwards, Ying Zheng looked at the remaining ten people in front of him, and said, "I plan to let you fresh faces go to the Southern Wilderness tomorrow to spy on the information about the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, what do you think?"

Jing looked at the others. She was originally a person of Xuanyong's sinister style. Spying on information and infiltrating assassinations was her job. Naturally, she would not refuse, so she only had to consider other people's opinions.

To Zhong Fei's surprise, Xi Shi was the first to agree.

Seeing Zhong Fei's surprised expression, Xi Shi whispered, "I'll explain to you after I go out later."

Seeing that Xishi and Jing agreed, the rest of the people also agreed one by one, and in the end only Zhao Huaizhen and Yunying were still hesitating.

No, it should be said that Zhao Huaizhen was still hesitating, and Yunying wanted to agree a long time ago, but unfortunately, Zhao Huaizhen held him back. Regardless of their status as Jixia students, the two of them were first and foremost subjects of Chang'an, and they helped Xuanyong so openly, even It is because the two countries have already formed an alliance, so it is inevitable that the empress will also have a grudge.

Zhong Fei has a reason to go to protect Xi Shi, but the two of them still need to weigh it carefully, after all, their parents are still officials in court.

Ying Zheng also saw Zhao Huaizhen's hesitation, and then took out Xuan Yong's letter of credence sent by the empress, handed it to Zhao Huaizhen, and said, "Don't worry about the Empress Chang'an, she has already known about this and asked the three of you to act freely, you just need to think about it." Your own opinions will do."

Zhao Huaizhen took the letter of credence with a sense of relief, and after reading it carefully, he let out a long sigh of relief, and agreed with Yunying's expectant eyes.

Afterwards, Ying Zheng laughed and said, "Okay, then you start early tomorrow, and the order to leave the customs has been issued to Bai Qi who is stationed at the frontier. After you arrive at the border, you can go to the army to find him, and he will arrange for you to go out." matter."

After everyone heard the words, they all bowed their hands and resigned. After they came out, Zhong Fei came to Xi Shi's side and asked curiously: "Why did you agree so decisively to inquire about the Southern Wilderness information for Ying Zheng?"

Xi Shi looked up at the sky, and she, who had always been lively and cheerful, sighed and said, "I remember you said before, you know my past, right?"

Zhong Fei hesitated for a moment, and nodded. He once said in the "Dream in the Ring" segment of Guixumeng that Xi Shi's psychological problems were the biggest among the members of the Star Team. From then on, Xi Shi knew that Zhong Fei Fei learns something about her past.

"Then do you know that I have taken care of a few children in Nanhuang?" Seeing him nodding, Xi Shi continued to ask.

Zhong Fei recalled Xi Shi's background story, and nodded again.

Xi Shi sighed, turned his gaze to Zhong Fei, and said: "In Nanhuang, there are many children without parents, but Nanhuang is a place that eats people but does not spit out bones, and these children cannot survive there. of."

"When I was living in Nanhuang, I always felt that this is the law of the jungle, a natural law set by God, and I even took it for granted. I can only help some children who really can't survive if I can."

"But it wasn't until I came to Jixia that I realized that life shouldn't be like that."

"Those children, they should be at the age of acting like a baby in the arms of their parents. They shouldn't be fighting with a group of unscrupulous businessmen on the street, or even fighting wild wolves for a bite to eat."

"I have always wanted to change Nanhuang, but my strength alone is too weak. Even if I get the power of 'Sha', it is not enough for me to cause a wave in the stagnant water of Nanhuang."

Zhong Fei didn't say anything, but just listened quietly, with a hint of distress for the girl in front of him flashing from time to time in his eyes.

"But it's different now," Xi Shi's tone suddenly became excited: "Xuanyong's monarch wants to take over Nanhuang, even if it is taken over by force, as long as it can bring a glimmer of light to the people of Nanhuang, I will not hesitate Do it, even if the final result may not be very good, but at least I tried my best, didn't I?"

"Besides, I don't think Ying Zheng is that kind of tyrant. If Nanhuang is really under his management, it will definitely become orderly!"

Xishi had heard people describe Xuanyong at Jixia College before. Before Yingzheng came to power, this place had always been synonymous with barrenness, desolation, and chaos. Xiaoguo jumped up, and he could even have an equal dialogue with the wealthy Chang'an, which shows his ability.

Although Xuan Yong is still poor and simple today, people's lives are already guaranteed, and they don't worry about whether they will starve to death every day like before.

Xi Shi longed for the people in the Southern Wilderness to live such a life, so she took the lead in accepting the task of spying on Ying Zheng.

Zhong Fei patted Xi Shi's head affectionately, and said, "It's okay, there will be a day when I will accompany you to change Nanhuang!"

Chapter 89

Early the next morning, the eight people were already fully dressed, only Zhong Fei and Xi Shi hadn't come yet.

Yao got a little impatient waiting, so he came to Zhong Fei's tent and shouted, "Zhong Fei, are you up yet! We're leaving!"

What Yao didn't expect was that Xi Shi walked out of Zhong Fei's camp slowly, yawning lazily, and said, "Good morning, Captain Shining!"

Yao stared at Xi Shi dumbfounded, pointed at her, and asked stammeringly, "You...you two...yesterday?"

Zhong Fei also walked out of the tent with his waist supported, and said, "It's nothing, just a long talk all night."

As he said that, Zhong Fei rubbed his sore waist. As for what he talked about, he couldn't mention it for the sake of passing the trial.

Anyway, now Zhong Fei suddenly felt a little sorry for Yao, and the power of the stars on his body also began to mix a touch of green in the golden color?

Ah, the colors of nature, how beautiful!

Yao didn't ask any more questions, he was just a little shocked just now, not that he had any affection for Xi Shi, the relationship between the two is just a pure teammate now, not even as good as other teammates, because Xi Shi used to He betrayed Yao in front of Lian Po.

It can only be said that Zhong Fei came early enough. If the dream of returning to the market is over, then the two of them will gradually develop a good impression according to the normal direction.

Then the two returned to the team with Yao, and after making some adjustments, they set off towards the border of Xuanyong.

Xuanyong City is located in the southwest of Jixia College, while Nanhuang is in the southeast of Jixia College.

To go from Xuanyong City to Nanhuang, apart from taking a detour through Jixia College, you can only go through Chidao, pass through the Dam City, exit from the border gate, and continue eastward to climb over the mountains before reaching the land of Nanhuang.

Naturally, everyone would not choose to return to Jixia College. Given Xuanyong's favorable location, Jixia College has many students from Xuanyong, so the people of Southern Wilderness have always maintained inexplicable vigilance and hostility towards those who came from Jixia College.

Everyone was driving the carriage on Xuanyong's wide road, Yunying looked outside, the sky was full of yellow sand, and could not help complaining: "Xuanyong's environment is so bad, I feel that the general's skin has deteriorated a lot."

Xi Shi heard this, touched her face, and nodded in agreement.

Zhao Huaizhen comforted Yunying in a low voice, and Zhong Fei also sat next to Xi Shi and chatted.

Yao is still trying to persuade Li Bai to take him on a tour around the mainland, holding his sword to the end of the world, while the mirror next to him is doubting Yao's orientation, secretly worried that his family is going to be extinct.

After all, Jing herself doesn't plan to get married and have children in this life, so all hope rests on Yao.

Master Lu Ban and Sun Bin were controlling the direction of the carriage outside, and Meng Ya asked Master Lu Ban some questions about mechanism techniques, and Master Lu Ban also answered casually.

In this way, they were all busy, and soon they came to another big city in Xuanyong - Bacheng!

Facing floods that broke out every year, Xuanyong's monarch, Ying Zheng, personally led the people of Xuanyong to plant large-scale afforestation, build canals and dams at the places where floods most frequently broke out, and finally eradicated floods. Convenience, the dam gradually developed into a complete county called 'Bacheng'.

Although the dam has been in operation for many years, its completion and maintenance work has continued. Yingzheng has even formulated a set of "compulsory warranty laws" for it - each section of the dam is inspected and maintained by specific craftsmen every year However, if there is any problem with the dam within this year, it is not impossible to recall it for reconstruction, or exile, or even be implicated.

Although this decree is a bit cruel, thanks to this decree, there have been no major problems in the dam for so many years.

After arriving at Bacheng, everyone got off the carriage and planned to take a rest.

Compared with Xuanyong, where there are almost no vendors, the atmosphere in Bacheng is obviously much more lively. Although the buildings are still mainly simple, at least you can already see a lot of small vendors hawking along the street.

Xuanyong City has never advocated trade, and there are few foreign businessmen staying there. There are only a few shops in the official market, and most of these shops are opened by foreign visitors.

After finding the official station in Bacheng, Master Lu Ban showed Yingzheng's warrant, and the stationed soldiers quickly replaced the horses on the carriage.

During this period of time, Xi Shi dragged Zhong Fei around Bacheng with some excitement, and proudly said: "Treasures are the easiest to find in this kind of place! Most rare treasures are low-key, and fancy appearances are always deceiving." people!"

Seeing Xi Shi passing through the various stalls and playing with all kinds of strange items from time to time, Zhong Fei shrugged helplessly and had no choice but to follow.

"I have studied treasure appraisal in Jixia College. After all, it is better to have eyes for treasures." Xi Shi also took the time to explain to Zhong Fei.

Needless to say, in the end Xi Shi really found several treasures with historical value, and happily brought them back to the carriage.

Starting again, everyone was still doing the same thing as before, only Xi Shi was carefully caring for the treasures that had just been scoured, for fear that the bumping of the carriage would damage them.

Finally, Zhong Fei, who couldn't stand it any longer, put them into the system backpack, which made Xi Shi heave a sigh of relief.

After changing horses, the speed was significantly improved compared to before, and everyone finally arrived at Xuanyong's border before dark.

"Stop! There is a customs clearance warrant!" The soldiers stationed at the gate of Border Town stopped the carriages of the crowd.

Master Lu Ban took out the warrant that Ying Zheng gave him before he set off, and said to several soldiers: "Please go and report to General Bai Qi that the people from Jixia are here to visit."

The soldiers checked the warrant carefully, nodded to everyone after confirming that it was correct, and then sent one person to report to Bai Qi with the warrant, while the rest continued to stare at Master Lu Ban and the others.

Soon, the messenger who went to report came back, and brought back Bai Qi's token: "Let's go!"

Hearing this, the soldiers guarding the gate immediately made way for everyone to pass through one by one.

Following the messengers, they soon came to the barracks. In the central big tent, Bai Qi, who was wearing a red armor named 'Hideous', was resting with his eyes closed, waiting for them.

Hearing them coming, Bai Qi suddenly opened his eyes, the flashing red light in his eyes made people shudder.

"I have already prepared your identities," Bai Qi's hoarse voice made people's scalp tingle: "From now on, you will be the family members of officials who were exiled by Xuan Yong to the Southern Wilderness. This is a detailed description. Yourselves Let's see."

Bai Qi said and handed over a stack of papers to everyone, on which everyone's behavior, behavior and personality traits were clearly marked one by one.

Everyone quickly finished the circulation, then looked at each other, and bid farewell to Bai Qi.

Let's go, Nanhuang!

Chapter 90

Coming out of Xuanyong Border Gate, you can see a vast desert, a few hungry vultures hovering in the air, staring at everyone with almost greedy eyes.

Xishi, Yunying, and Jing covered their faces with bamboo hats and light gauze, and wore loose clothes to completely cover their good figures. Keep the bag in your hand, so that everyone can avoid troubles in the Southern Wilderness.

Sun Bin's organ wings are covered with a wide cloak, although it looks a bit weird, but it will not be very conspicuous.

Although they are not very afraid of troublesome people based on the strength of the crowd, but after all, they are here to spy on information, so it is better to keep a low profile.

Xi Shi, who was more familiar with Nan Huang and Xuan Yong, looked at the position of the sun in the sky, estimated the current time in his heart, and soon knew the approximate position of everyone, and chose a direction to lead them forward.

Under Xi Shi's leadership, they soon saw a gathering place in the distance. At this time, Xi Shi turned her head and said to everyone: "The front is one of the several large black markets in the Southern Wilderness. Let's check there first."

Naturally, everyone had no objection, and walked towards the black market in silence, and soon reached the entrance.

There were a few masked mercenaries guarding the entrance, and when they saw everyone coming, they said in a frivolous tone: "Hey, make a face, do you know the rules here?"

Yao was a little puzzled, and just about to ask, Xi Shi stopped him, took out a small purse and threw it to several mercenaries.

"Hey, I'm still a regular customer! But this amount of money is not enough to keep my teeth between my teeth. The southern wilderness is not peaceful recently. If you don't want to expose the dead bodies in the wilderness, you'd better add more." The mercenary in charge shook his hands purse, said a little greedily.

Xi Shi no longer pulled Yao, but turned around and retreated behind Yao, pushing him.

Yao didn't expect that Xi Shi would push him, so he staggered a few steps forward. Seeing this situation, several mercenaries looked at each other and laughed: "Ha, there are really people who dare to provoke our 'Viper Gang' here People, brothers, let them see the blood, so that others will not forget the reputation of our 'Viper Gang'!"
