Chapter Eleven Mirage
The realm of the four seas and the eight wilderness areas are monsters and humans, and all are ordinary beings.
The so-called "haishi" is a market where the demons and the two tribes of business are mixed.
Gong Liying was stunned.
The street scenes that show them in front of them are like ordinary markets, but the people who set up stalls here may not be the ones who open the store.
The two children followed Shu Ling in a daze, and from time to time, one or two small elf-looking animals slipped past their feet. Sometimes the strong man who passed by was dragging his furry tail, and the beast's ears were on the human-like head, or half-length, half-body, half-body...
The city is complicated and impermanent, and the eaves of the building are unique and have a bit of the Central Plains meaning, but it is not like the Zhuangsu of the Central Plains.
"This was built by the Marshal after conquering the Dongfang Gushe Kingdom. Originally, it was just a small street, not that lively."
The old emperor was the Emperor Wu. He reigned for forty-seven years and personally led his troops to fight south and north for 35 years. He went north to Tianhu and south to the barbarians. He conquered the 24 countries in the Western Regions, but suffered a lot of losses in the east.
There is Kun in Beiming as the head and the demon dragon in the East Sea gathers. Both are the heads of mortal monsters, and their strength is comparable to that of ancient ferocious beasts. Therefore, there are many demonic countries from the East Sea to Beiming, relying on the power in the sea.
Many demon countries led by Qingqiu and Gushu have connected to each other and cut off the mortals' face to the sea, and often invade the Central Plains. Even the immortal sect can do nothing.
When the old emperor was in his prime, he led the east expedition and brought the strongest Jinhuo Cavalry in Dali at that time. However, he was intercepted and killed by demon troops in the Duantouling area. He suffered heavy casualties and had to retreat to the ridge. He took advantage of the danger and retained his strength, but was trapped for three months.
Just as the late emperor was about to end his journey, Jun Han brought a light cavalry of only 100 people into the ridge to offer advice to the late emperor. The situation was in a difficult situation and the late emperor was desperate and temporarily appointed Jun Han as the head coach.
Jun Han then led the remaining soldiers to escape the siege of 100,000 demon troops and successfully rescued the troops back to Beijing.
After returning to the capital, the first emperor formally appointed Jun Han as marshal. Since then, Jun Han fought south and north, and the demon kingdom of the city conquered countless military achievements and made great achievements. In six years, he became the marshal of the world's military and horses.
When talking about Jun Han, Shu Ling seemed to have endless things to say.
"Did the uncle meet his adoptive father very early?"
"Yes." Shu Ling lowered his eyes and looked at him, "The Marshal is our benefactor."
Jun Han conquered countless demonic countries, and he also fulfilled what he promised to the previous emperor early in the morning - a hundred demons came to pay tribute.
Gushe Kingdom is also a great country in the east. It once joined forces with Qingqiu. All the monsters worshiped and paid tribute, and they were also the overlord of the East.
These two countries were repelled by Beishan Jun when they first committed the Central Plains. They dared not commit again for a hundred years. Later, Beishan Jun was attacked by the Immortal Sect, and the Beishan Monster Kingdom was destroyed. The Immortal Sect's vitality was greatly damaged. When the Central Plains were in decline, the two countries made a comeback and invaded the east border, which led to the shameful Eastern Expedition of the First Emperor.
Fifteen years ago, Jun Han took charge of the army to march eastward, breaking the coastal countries all the way, and rushing into the hinterlands of the two countries, kicking the capitals of both countries in one go. This powerful achievement even shocked the immortal gate that had been conquering the world for thousands of years.
After that, according to Jun Han's advice, the first emperor built Hai City in Lizhou and opened the door to welcome the demons from all over the world to the capital.
This imperial order scared the people at the beginning, and the hundreds of immortal schools were all sent to the court, so not only the ministers submitted their opinions, but even the immortal sects that had never interfered in the government and had always lived in seclusion in the wild could not sit still. They even sent several respected real elders to lobby.
In fact, the old emperor was also worried and discussed with Jun Han for a long time with doubts. He had hesitated several times. But in the end, under Jun Han's insistence, the Haishi was built without any danger. Jun Han personally managed the security of his Majesty. His Majesty was at ease.
After the first few months of history, ordinary businessmen did not dare to enter. Most of them were opera troupes or little goblins who were having fun.
When Canghe Gate was first opened, countless people in the city were crying. In just half a year, the Haishi became turbulent because the merchants found that doing business with the demon was not a bad thing.
The first people entering Haishi were all the little goblins who had just developed spiritual consciousness, had low cultivation and were bullied by other big monsters all year round. These little goblins often maintained the form of animals. When they entered Haishi, they followed the opera troupe to juggle around. Those who could speak were funny and cheerful. They were offered three meals a day, and they didn't have to dig holes to sleep in the grass cave. They thank Jun Han, the legendary ruthless marshal.
The sea city gradually became lively, and Jun Han set up a Guanhaisi under Canghe Gate to record monster books. If the demon clan wants to enter the sea city, he must go to the Guanhaisi Denghu to get the demon talisman. Those who obtain the demon talisman are all good people among the demons.
"After the first year of Haishi, the merchant groups of the two major powers, Qingqiu and Gushe, arrived. Since then, the monster merchants from all directions have been constantly communicating. Not only has the danger of threatening Dali for hundreds of years been eliminated, but the national treasury storage has increased by more than 50%. In addition, the demon kingdoms have also set up ports for Dali along the coast, and the demon clans in the sea have paid tribute to shipbuilding maps..."
Shu Ling talked to her two children vividly and went back and forth in this sea city for three rounds, but she still wanted to take them to the suburbs outside the city, but someone was in a bad mood.
Yi Chen followed Shu Ling, stretched his neck all the way and looked around. Unfortunately, he saw the person who was waving to them not far away. Seeing that the man was still wearing the black iron light armor of the Tielin Army, he hurriedly pulled Shu Ling.
"There are people over there."
Shu Ling quickly stopped talking and looked in the direction he pointed, and it became clear at a glance, "Old Xu?"
Lao Xu is a big and thick man with a skin color similar to bronze, with a beard on his face, and he stabbed it into the crowd, like a black tiger and became a spirit.
Old Xu raised his anger and yelled at Shu Ling after 180 steps: "What time is it going to be? It's still around! The marshal called you to go back and discuss something if you have something to do."
Shu Ling walked past him slowly and asked casually: "What's the matter?"
"What can I say on the street?" This man's voice was shocking enough.
"The Marshal is back so early today?"
"No! I'll look for you this time." Old Xu kept muttering, and glanced at the two children who were following him. He pressed Yi Chen's chasing Tianling Gai and rubbed it. The big hand, like a bear's paw, covered his entire head with his palm.
"It's a bit slight. The noble son of the marshal is still young now."
"I think this kid is quite strong."
Yi Chen finally recovered his life from the bear's paw and hurriedly touched his head.
Shu Ling sent the two children back to the courtyard of Shuai Mansion and rushed to the study room to see Jun Han.
After Jun Han went to the palace to report his work today, he handed over the draft he prepared during the Chinese New Year on the integration of the two tribes.
Of course, the little emperor couldn't understand anything. There were only verbal confrontations between Jun Han and the Prime Minister in the imperial study, and the little emperor just sat on the side and stared at him.
Jun Han sat in front of the desk and drank tea lightly, and announced to the two of them in an ordinary way that his plan was rejected by the Prime Minister again, but it didn't matter. Anyway, as long as the little emperor was fooled to write an edict and put a seal, the emperor ordered it, and Prime Minister Ren could not do anything.
"But if the Prime Minister refuses to cooperate, this matter..." Shu Ling said. Jun Han put down the teacup halfway through hearing this and looked at Lao Xu, "What did the little demons I caught outside Luozhou Gorge have searched from them?"
"The iron seal of the ghost market."
Jun Han casually stood up with his face, "Put it in a box and send it to the Prime Minister. Be polite, just say it was a gift I brought to him after a long time of training."
"yes."
"Send it now."
"Okay."
When Old Xu left, Shu Ling gave Jun Han a very puzzled look, "Is it the Prime Minister?"
Jun Han smiled faintly and withdrew his hand, "The court is full of people who are so anxious to send me back to heaven, who will be besides the Prime Minister?" As soon as he finished speaking, he gasped softly again, thought, and refused, "It may not be necessary, but the only ones who really have this courage are the Prime Minister or Lu Yanzhi beside him."
He spoke in an understatement, but Shu Ling was frightened while listening, but he could only suppress the spirit and not show the strange color.
"But he reminded me."
Shu Ling was confused.
Jun Han gently turned the ring around without raising his eyes, saying, "I have been busy attacking the demon country before, and in recent years I have been rushing to deal with the trouble of the Immortal Sect. I didn't think of the ghost market - you can count the household registration and species of monsters near the former sites of the Immortal Sect, and find out all the locations of the ghost market, and try not to have any extra leaks."
"yes."
“The faster the better.”
"clear."
The General's Mansion is only separated from the Prime Minister's Mansion by one street, and with Lao Xu's foot strength, he arrived in just a moment.
The butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion took the box sent by the marshal and hurried into the study room, putting the exquisitely painted box on the Prime Minister's desk.
"Who sent it?"
"It was sent by General Xu."
When he heard that it was Jun Han’s man, the Prime Minister’s face turned pale with a slight look, then waved his hand and asked the butler to retreat.
A small box was placed on the table. Situ Jing raised his hand several times, but he couldn't make up his mind to open it. So he waved Lu Yanzhi beside him in annoyance.
Lu Yanzhi is here.
"Come on." After that, Situ Jing leaned back and rubbed his eyebrows naturally.
As soon as he saw what Jun Han sent him, he had an old migraine problem.
Lu Yanzhi looked at Situ Jing and the box on the table. Finally, he picked up the box helplessly and shook it in his ear.
It looks like it's really not an empty box.
Lu Yanzhiyun had some courage before finally opening the cover. He glanced at him and was stunned for a pale face.
When the Prime Minister saw his expression, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly came to the table and asked, "What is it?"
Lu Yanzhi looked strange and inexplicably. He didn't say anything, but pushed the box that had been opened to Situ Jing, "Please look, sir."
Two black iron seal talismans like coins were lying in the box. Situ Jing didn't recognize it at first glance and asked, "What's this?"
"This is the token of the Assassin in the Ghost City."
The prime minister was stunned and fell back in a daze. His right hand couldn't help twisting his cuffs.
Token of the Ghost City Assassin!
The Prime Minister just had a migraine, but now that he knew the terrifying answer, the tendons in his mind almost furrowed!
"What do you mean by him?"
Lu Yanzhi also frowned and glanced at the things in the box, thinking for a long time.
"About the Marshal's plan today..." He said halfway, and the Prime Minister suddenly glared at him nervously.
"Don't interfere with the Marshal's plan today."
"..." The Prime Minister sighed in a grievance, rubbed his eyebrows in annoyance, "Fake a mistake!"
have no choice--
As soon as he went to court the next day, Jun Han handed in the court. Half of the civil and military officials stared at Situ Jing with thieves, and his heart was filled with tears in his eyes.
Situ Jing only glanced at Jun Han in a faint light, and just right the cold and smiling gaze.
