Chapter 735 Today in Bashu(1/2)
Early the next morning, Zhao Changhe took Wu Zui with him, said goodbye to Yue Hongling and went north to Bashu.
Sisi did not send her far, she only reached the north of Erhai Lake and then stopped moving forward.
Because this time he was followed by Dali officials and honor guards, who were sending him off in the official name of sending off King Zhao of the Han Dynasty. Zhao Changhe turned around and looked at the seaside grassland, where everyone was solemn, and everyone still kept the gesture of bowing their hands and saying goodbye.
, only Sisi stood quietly and looked at him steadily, so she stood out among the crowd of people who were bending and bowing.
Thousands of horses and troops, and the vast sea have become the background. Only the girl's eyes, slightly tearful, are as affectionate as the sea.
No one can connect the solemn farewell now with the charm last night.
This is the first woman who takes the initiative to serve her with others. It is said that Miao girls are not as reserved as Han people, but it actually reflects the deep-rooted lovesickness. Because everyone's reunion is always in a hurry, and the last time we parted, it took half a year.
We just met again. The so-called stay was quite long, but in fact the total length of the stay was less than seven days. During these seven days, she was very busy and didn't see each other very often. The so-called absurdity plus last night was only two nights.
Gods and demons appear in the world, and the world is in strife. We say goodbye this time. I don’t know when we will meet again. It is not impossible to say farewell forever.
When will we know each other when we miss each other? It’s embarrassing at this time and this night.
Hong Ling also understood and indulged him for a while.
Zhao Changhe rode Wu Zui, turned around three times with one step, finally gave his hand, and galloped away ruthlessly.
The spirit clan's flesh and blood supplement is not only the most suitable place for Zhao Changhe's blood asura body, but also the most suitable place for raising Wu Zui. It is obvious that Wu Zui has grown more than his master in the past few days, with his strength and speed increasing significantly.
Improvement. If you look closely, you can see that there is still a faint dragon-shaped texture on the body. It used to carry Zhao Changhe and Yue Hongling on a flight, which would have been a bit hard, but now it is as light as empty and disappears in an instant.
Sisi stared at the direction in which the two men disappeared, and whispered: "Send the order, gather the troops and horses, and conduct drills in the north. The louder the better."
"If you make a big noise, won't it be known to Bashu?"
"What's important is that they know."
"King Zhao wants to intimidate Bashu?...Then if Bashu is not intimidated, will he really want to fight?"
"Then fight." Sisi said calmly: "Our strength may not be just for self-protection. In a world of chaos between gods and demons, wouldn't there be a place for us?"
Pan Wan tried to ask: "The king also wants to strive for hegemony?"
"How can I?" Sisi smiled brilliantly: "Now is the time to recuperate and recuperate. If I insist on fighting, you will definitely complain."
Pan Wan smiled awkwardly: "The king's intention is..."
"Because he will need it, not now, but also in the near future."
…………
Wu Zhui flew to Emei, and Zhao Changhe watched from a high position for a while. There were still many people in the mountain practicing martial arts and iron in full swing. It can be seen that the Shenhuang Sect has not moved to Chengdu collectively, and there are still many disciples staying at the mountain gate.
Judging from this performance alone, the Shenhuang Sect does not seem to be competing for hegemony. Even if these are just low-level disciples of the Shenhuang Sect with low combat power, they are absolutely elite soldiers. These days, other sects are eager to go to Shihao Village to recruit old men into the army. How can this be true?
Can a group of elite men who are beating iron be left unorganized in the mountains?
"There should be their secret realm within the Shenhuang Sect, and they cannot give up their old nest easily." Yue Hongling observed for a while and said: "It is difficult to judge based on this alone. It is better to look around."
"Um."
Zhao Changhe did not let Wu Zui fly away anymore, and walked slowly to watch.
It is said that Li Shentong is not good at governance, and there are no nobles to help. After thinking about the past, it is not as good as before, and it looks like a mess. In fact, it is not bad.
After the initial period of chaos, Bashu now looks quite peaceful and tranquil. The bandits that were once seen seem to have disappeared. At first glance, it looks more dilapidated and depressed than before, mainly because many wealthy gentry were slaughtered.
Zhuangzi was burned down, and ruins could be seen everywhere. Moreover, the population was also reduced, because Li Shentong killed too many people, and even the King of the West was killed.
But there is smoke from the cooking pots in various villages. Although the villagers are sallow and thin, their clothes are warm. I feel that Li Shentong should have beaten the local tycoons to share the money and grain, and the fields should have been divided, but now there is no farming scene in winter. And although the villagers are thin and thin
, and there is no such shrinking and frightened feeling as before, and my energy is much better.
With such a foundation, we can actually manage it. There are scholars everywhere, and there are not many people who are willing to join the team to help. Three-legged toads are hard to find, and are you afraid that you can’t find people who are officials?
Passing by the county town, you can also see the government offices and offices, which are in good order.
Li Shentong said he couldn't do this, but as long as he was willing to take care of it, he would be better than Xia Longyuan... Lao Xia really didn't have the right to joke that everyone was the same.
This is a good thing. But the goal of Zhao Changhe's trip may not be so good.
If Bashu is still in chaos, let alone convincing Li Shentong to cooperate, it is even possible to take back Bashu without any bloodshed. But now that it has been managed and revived in an orderly manner, it is really a force for hegemony, at least a force that can separate and maintain peace. Why?
Still want to talk to you?
The young couple looked at each other, not knowing whether to be happy or to have a headache.
"Forget it, it's a good thing after all." Zhao Changhe said: "I won't do more observation, it's of little significance. I'll just go to Chengdu to see if I can have dinner."
At sunset, the two arrived in Chengdu. It was not as scary as flying horses into the city. They landed very low-key in the distance and led the horses through the city gate.
"Stop! The road... uh..."
Nowadays, the interrogation questions when entering the city are becoming shorter and shorter.
This time, the guard didn't even finish his words, and the city gate fell silent. Not to mention the guards, even a civilian entering the city had his heart beating wildly, and the two names in his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
This young couple is not wearing makeup... Two years ago, Yue Hongling's portraits were all over the world, and she was cosplaying everywhere. Even the bandits in the Beiman Mountains knew her. They were truly popular idols, not to mention the God-Slaughter who is now gathering momentum.
, King Shura? The love affair between the two is also known to the world. They appear together, and there is no doubt about their identity.
Normally, someone might have come forward to ask for an autograph, but what about now? King Shura is the King of Zhao of the Han Dynasty, and here is the Anti-King.
Zhao Changhe looked around and suddenly smiled: "What are you doing? Please tell Situ Xiao that an old friend is visiting and wants a drink. Don't tell me he's not here?"
Before he finished speaking, a big cauldron suddenly fell from the sky: "Want a sip?"
The aroma of wine in the cauldron has spread all the way to the city gate.
It can be said that it is a sip, but the big cauldron is pointed upward, how do you drink the wine inside? Jump on it and drink? It is ugly. Let the cauldron tilt? The spilled wine is all over the place.
Everyone watched Zhao Changhe's actions eagerly, but saw him grinning and suddenly stretching out a finger.
With his fingers accurately touching the foot of a tripod, the big tripod flew upwards in a swirl, and the water spray also swirled and spread out from the side of the tripod, like flowers from a fountain.
Zhao Changhe snapped his fingers, and the hops flying in the air suddenly gathered and turned into the shape of a cup, which fell steadily into his hand.
Zhao Changhe raised his neck and drank the wine in the glass, but the wine glass was still there.
He flicked it casually, and the wine glass suddenly turned into a small water dragon, roaring into the sky, catching up with the large cauldron that was still spiraling up, and then "plopped" into the cauldron and disappeared.
Everyone at the city gate looked like they were seeing an immortal magic... Is this something that human martial arts can do?
But Zhao Changhe smiled: "This wine is pretty average."
There was a sigh in the air: "We are poor, can we make do with it? My wife, please?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the cauldron rose to its highest point and began to fall.
But at the moment of sinking, the wine in the cauldron suddenly exploded, and countless water splashes were scattered out like swords, and then like thousands of swords, they accurately stabbed everyone present.
No one even reacted, and as soon as the thought of dodge came up, a small sword made of wine already stayed near the mouth.
Yue Hongling's voice came: "When did Brother Situ become so stingy? Borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, anyone who sees it will have a share, please!"
Everyone was so excited that they all said in unison: "My daughter-in-law, please come."
So he opened his mouth at the same time, and the wine sword went into his throat.
Situ laughed loudly: "Okay, okay!"
The cauldron once again entered the range three feet above Zhao Changhe's head. He suddenly smacked his head upward and said, "Return to Situ!"
"Boom!" The big cauldron did not move, but the wine in the cauldron roared up, gathering into a huge water dragon, and rushed straight to somewhere at the top of the city. The roaring sound along the way was really like the roar of a dragon!
"Tsk..." A palm was gently slapped, and the faucet stopped, slowly gathered into a large ball of wine. Situ's smiling face appeared at the top of the city, holding the wine and drinking heavily.
After finishing the drink in a moment, he laughed and came back: "Come on, we just arranged for people to kill pigs, so I have to treat you to a good meal."
Zhao Changhe hammered the big cauldron into the ground with a "clang" sound. The legs of the cauldron were completely submerged in the ground, and he led his horse into the city. Yue Hongling smiled slightly and followed leisurely in.
It wasn't until the two of them had entered the city for a long time that the sound of gasping came one after another from outside the city gate. It felt like many people were holding their breath and didn't dare to breathe, and they just breathed out at this moment.
Several guards came forward to move the big cauldron. This cauldron couldn't be inserted into the city gate. How unworthy would it be?
As a result, the three people moved it in triangles, and the big cauldron was stuck in the ground motionless and could not be pulled out at all. Two more people came, and they were surrounded by people who had no place to stand. They tried their best to lift it, but it didn't move at all.
Everyone was shocked.
"It's too scary...Is this still human martial arts?"
"Or how can we say he is the God-Slayer?" Someone said: "It would be rare for Young Master Situ to be next."
"Because they are friends, right? That water dragon is just a toast?"
"You're overthinking this. This must be a test of strength. If either party shows cowardice, the situation will be different... This tripod city gate is all about establishing authority. Speaking of which, the young master has already shown his cowardice. Holding the
The whole group of drinks is not as light as those two people."
"Young Master is not on the Human Ranking today. Those two are at the level of the Heavenly Ranking. They only need one battle. The one who can really talk to them is Sect Master Li."
Sect Master Li... Zhao Changhe, who had already entered the city far away, still heard the whispers outside. Theoretically, Li Shentong had already called himself the King of Shu. This was not necessarily because he wanted to be the king, but because of the situation, he needed a name to rule the place.
, if the name is incorrect, then the words will not be correct. But to this day, do people still call Li Shentong as "Sect Master Li"?
"Hey, what are you eavesdropping on there?" Situ Xiao leaned against the wall beside the road and smiled lazily: "Go straight in, do you know where to go?"
"Anyway, you will lead the way. Otherwise, why are you here, showing off?"
To be continued...
