Chapter 111 Invite Your Majesty to Come

A rusty wine glass appeared in the bright valley, bringing an ancient atmosphere to this verdant land.

The mountains and rivers are turning, and the vegetation is flourishing!
Geological changes one after another have turned the sea into mulberry fields!

Immortal rocks turned into dust in the long wind, the mountains that touched the sky were reduced to basins, and the mountain peaks that stood like swords disappeared in the thunder and tremors.
Time flows.

In the era when the vicissitudes of life have not yet begun, and the thunder and tremors have not appeared, the ancient wine cups have not yet been rusted.

Under the dim candlelight, the dense and complicated patterns witnessed its brilliance.

The brand-new bronze exudes an attractive luster, and when it falls on the stone table, it makes a unique metal bumping sound.

"My lord, this is the wine glass for this banquet, please have a look."

In the dimly lit room, the guards from Xianyang Imperial City spoke respectfully.

Not far away sat a slender man.

He was wearing a black robe, with a handsome face, and his black eyes were as quiet as an ancient pool. Just sitting here gave people a great pressure.

Zhao Tuo picked up the wine glass, watched it carefully, and nodded slightly.

"That's right. The pattern is dense and the texture is excellent. For the banquet, it should be made according to this specification."

Looking at the guard kneeling on the ground, Zhao Tuo asked, "If you want to prepare [-] such wine glasses, how long will it take?"

"My lord, these wine glasses are all made by the skilled craftsmen of the Xianyang court. If they are all summoned, fifteen days will be enough." The guard said respectfully.

"Fifteen days, it's okay, let's prepare quickly." Zhao Tuo waved his hand.

"Yes." The guard turned and left respectfully.

After the guards left, Zhao Tuo took out a roll of bamboo slips and spread them silently.

On the bamboo slips, all the process and expenses from the beginning of the feast were recorded.

After writing the word 'wine cup' on it, Zhao Tuo couldn't help but calculate all the expenses and expenses during the casting ceremony.

Then he rubbed his eyebrows helplessly.

"The cost is really a bit high."

Sighing lightly, Zhao Tuo came to the window and looked at Mount Taihua in the distance.

Even though it is already midnight, the Taihua Mountain in the distance is still brightly lit.

Countless workers are busy working on the mountain.

Above Taihua in February, the cold has not yet faded.

The strong wind howled, and the torches burned in the strong wind with difficulty.

It has been four months since the grand ceremony officially broke ground.

The build process went surprisingly smoothly.

Although there are sometimes a few spies who come to inquire on the way, most of them never intervene, and occasionally a few people who don't open their eyes want to try to interfere with the construction of the celebration, but after he hangs the heads of those people in the After the foot of Taihua Mountain, no one came to bother me.

During these four months, these laborers have changed several batches.

The severe cold and continuous work in winter made it impossible for laborers to work too long.

In order to catch up with the progress, the king has mobilized tens of thousands of people from all over the country to come here.

Today's laborers above Taihua will get half a day's rest every time they go up to work for half a day.

The two batches of workers exchange jobs back and forth, day and night.

Coupled with the efforts of many Qi practitioners from Fengqingmen, although it was the middle of winter and the wind and frost were biting, the main body and buildings of the grand ceremony and banquet on Mount Taihua had already been mostly completed.

When building all these at the beginning, I did encounter many difficulties.

For example, the terrain of Taihua is steep, with countless mountains standing like swords, and there is no place to stand, let alone build buildings.

This is especially true for the Taihua Mountain, which is one of the main peaks.

A barren mountain range stands like a rock sword, and it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to build many celebration buildings on it.

In order to solve this problem, the craftsmen, with the help of many practitioners from Fengqingmen, laid a series of iron pillars on top of Taihua.

Each of these iron pillars is more than half a meter wide and more than ten meters long, and they are nailed horizontally on the cliff-like cliff.

With the help of these iron pillars, the craftsmen hung down the ropes and carved a one-meter-wide uphill road on the mountain.

This road twists and turns, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. In order to prevent slipping, they also specially mixed dark black dye on the rocks to cover it.

And on the rocks near various parts of the mountain road, black dragon claws and dragon heads were carved.

Today's torches light the way.

The mountain road in the dark night is like a slender flaming dragon, circling and entangled on the vast mountain, and hard-working people are transporting the materials used for many celebrations up.

In addition, those black iron rods that were nailed to the mountain were not wasted.

They are deeply nailed on the rocks, and they cannot be blown down by the wind. Many Mohist craftsmen from Daqin used it as a foundation and used countless skilled craftsmen to build castles in the air on it.

These palaces are inlaid with precious agates and gemstones, glazed bricks and tiles, shining magnificent colors under the sun.

Especially those few houses at the top, they have faintly touched the clouds!

When the dark clouds cover and the snow is flying, it is like a dreamy fairyland, looming!
And in this huge grand ceremony, the most magnificent and magnificent are not these, but the topmost banquet and celebration venue!

In order to open up a grand ceremony site on the mountains lined with swords, Zhao Tuo and others thought hard for a long time, and finally decided to lead many practitioners in the foundation-building realm. It took a month to directly give the entire mountain top to Flattened!
A huge field with a diameter of hundreds of meters appeared on the summit of Taihua!

On this circular field, they laid a lot of bronze and equipment, and built a magnificent banquet venue!

All the materials on the venue, no matter the tables, chairs or many decorations, are all extremely expensive materials!
After a period of polishing, the main body of the celebration event at this time is almost completely completed!
Zhao Tuo has visited several times before. Standing on the top of the magnificent Taihua Mountain, you can almost see the sea of ​​clouds flowing under your feet, and the sky above your head. When night falls, the stars in the sky seem to be within reach!

The majestic full moon floats on the sea of ​​clouds, the purple light of the sun rises in the east, and the large grand ceremony buildings are immersed behind the sea of ​​clouds. That magnificent scene even makes Zhao Tuo think that he has come to the legendary Heavenly Palace! !
Xanadu, heaven and earth, but that's all!

"But the cost is really high"

Gently rubbing the center of his eyebrows, Zhao Tuo sighed helplessly.

Looking at the shocking expenses on the bamboo slips, even if he had been mentally prepared, he couldn't help but feel terrified at this moment.

"Fortunately, the whole building has been completed."

"The next step should be to prepare a lot of things for the grand banquet."

"Drinks and food are destined to be indispensable."

"Many beauties singing and dancing are also indispensable. I heard that there is a very famous musician in the country of Yan. I don't know if I can invite them to come."

Silently thinking about all this, Zhao Tuo became busy again.

Although the main body of the banquet is almost completed, the remaining month is the highlight.

It is no small task to completely decorate the grand ceremony venue within this month.

Although until now Zhao Tuo didn't understand why the king built this extravagant banquet, but he stubbornly believed in his heart that the king must have his reasons for doing so.

Those of them who are courtiers, just do it honestly.

"There is only one month left before the opening of the grand ceremony, and the production of many grand ceremony supplies from various schools of thought needs to be put on the agenda. I don't know how many people will come this time."

“Need to speed things up a bit”

On the distant Taihua, Zhao Tuo is busy making preparations, but in Xianyang City, a group of people can't sit still
"Ridiculous, simply ridiculous!"

Xianyang.

Govern Su Nei Shifu.

An angry roar came from here.

In the huge room, the faces of dozens of officials in charge of managing finances were pale, and Zhi Su Nei Shi, who was in charge of this issue, grabbed the letter sent by Zhao Tuo, and the corners of his mouth were crooked in anger! !
Want money?
How much did you spend in the past four months?
With such a large financial expenditure, what exactly is the king going to do?
tens of thousands of workers, countless

What is the purpose of this banquet? It must be too grand, right?

It's just breaking through to a spiritual sea realm, so it's so exaggerated?
Could it be that he really wanted to attract talents from all over the world at this banquet?
With the memorial approved by Yingzheng, Zhi Su Neishi did not allocate money directly, but brought this memorial, and came to the residence of the Prime Minister of Lu Buwei with a gloomy expression!

At this time, there are still many Daqin officials in the mansion of the Prime Minister discussing many things.

And looking at the memorial from Ji Suuaishi, the corners of the mouths of many officials twitched!
What's happening here?
Why do you need so much expenditure?
Seeing the huge numbers on the memorial, even Lu Buwei frowned slightly!

What exactly does Ying Zheng want to do?
What is so good about holding this grand ceremony?
It has been four months since the invitation to the grand ceremony, and in these few months, the confrontation between him and Mrs. Huayang has reached a fever pitch!
Facing the tremendous pressure that Yingzheng brought to them, both he and Mrs. Huayang are doing their best to win over many officials and powers of the Qin State!
But what makes Lu Buwei a little puzzled is that Yingzheng has always been indifferent to the actions of him and Mrs. Huayang from the beginning to the end, almost devoting his whole body and mind to the convening and preparation of this grand event. Among them, let him and Mrs. Huayang recruit talents in Daqin at will!
There is no meaning of caring at all!
This made both Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang frown.

what on earth is it?

Regarding Ying Zheng's abnormal move, Lu Buwei and Mrs. Hua Yang, who had suffered once, were not fools. Naturally, they sent their own spies to explore, search, and try to find out what Ying Zheng wanted to do.

But no matter how their spies searched, the answer they got was that there was no problem!
The building on the other side of Taihua Mountain is an incomparably luxurious event!

Although it costs a lot and is a lot of labor, there is nothing wrong with it!
Apart from the addition of a few foundation-building practitioners, there is nothing abnormal!

Not only Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang, but even people from the six countries sent their spies to search and observe.

But the result is also no problem!

But the more these words are correct, the more uneasy Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang feel!
After all, Ying Zheng's indifference is too bizarre!

In order to alleviate all this, Mrs. Huayang couldn't sit still first, and dispatched her own forces to try to stop Ying Zheng from building buildings above Taihua.

In the end, it ushered in the wrath of Ying Zheng!

He directly mobilized all the power at hand, and killed all those Qi refiners who wanted to make trouble near Taihua Mountain!
You must know that all the Qi refiners dispatched this time are masters!

There is even a peak powerhouse who established the foundation of the eighth heaven!
But even so, he was directly killed near Taihua Mountain! !

Seeing this scene, both Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang were really surprised!

When did Ying Zheng's subordinates become so powerful? !

Faced with all this, Mrs. Huayang naturally couldn't swallow this breath, and wanted to fight back and continue to block it.

As a result, at this moment, Lu Buwei made a move without saying a word. Without saying a word, he used his own power to occupy most of the field controlled by Mrs. Huayang in Qianzhong County!

Killed more than a dozen of Mrs. Huayang's Foundation Establishment Realm Qi Practitioners!
This sudden scene almost made Mrs. Huayang spit out a mouthful of old blood!
She turned the spearhead, and also knocked down most of Lu Buwei's power in Shangjun!

But this time, after all, Lu Buwei took the lead, even if he was chased by Mrs. Huayang afterwards, he also gained the advantage!
The originally evenly matched battle between the two sides suddenly deviated, and Lu Buwei gained the upper hand because of this!

Seeing this scene, Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang put away their intentions to deal with Ying Zheng, and began to focus on their own power grabbing!

Anyway, it's just a dilapidated building, let him build it, even if it is successfully built, what's the use?After all the rights in Xianyang have been swallowed up by them, so what if Yingzheng can summon the talents from all over the world?

Destined to be just a puppet!Can't fight them!

Since then, neither Lu Buwei nor Mrs. Huayang have blocked Yingzheng's construction.

And from then on, Ying Zheng also seemed to be possessed by a demon, frantically mobilizing all the power at hand to build a grand ceremony above Taihua!
Even in the past few days, Yingzheng didn't even hold the court meeting, allowing Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang to hold many meetings in the Zhangtai hall, blatantly gathering his power!
Everything seems to be ok.

But looking at the memorial and report in his hand, Lu Buwei frowned slightly, always feeling that something was ignored by him.

What is this festival all about?

Why does Ying Zheng attach so much importance to it?

Still so grand?
Could it be that he is really planning something?

But the situation has become so clear, what trump card does Ying Zheng have?

"Have you found out where these unknown foundation-building practitioners came from?"

After a long time, Lu Buwei spoke in a deep voice.

"I found it." A doorman stepped forward and said respectfully: "These practitioners come from Fengqingmen."

"Fengqingmen?" For this sect, Lu Buwei had a little impression. It seemed that there was an elixir ceremony held a few days ago, and he wanted to cultivate elixir, but it failed in the end.

"Yes, we purposely searched for the location of the Fengqingmen Mountain Gate, and found that the Fengqingmen has long been empty. According to calculations, they may have all built grand ceremonies on Taihua Mountain."

Hearing this, Lu Buwei laughed, "Hehe, it took four full months to find out their origins. You really did a good job."

Hearing this, the doorman trembled, knelt on the ground, buried his head on the ground, and dared not speak.

In fact, Lu Buwei had already launched a search after discovering these unknown Qi trainers.

But these searches were all conducted at high levels, and they all started in the great cultivation sects of the Seven Kingdoms.

After all, to have so many schools of Qi practitioners, not to mention the top schools, at least they must be first-class schools.

And in the end, who would have thought that it would be the little broken sect of Fengqingmen?

"A sect that barely counts as a third-rate sect has so many Qi practitioners in the Foundation Establishment Realm. Hehe, he really can hide his clumsiness just like the king."

Lu Buwei smiled slowly, stroking his beard with one hand, seemingly warm and approachable, but the coldness in his eyes became more and more sinister.

Ignoring the shivering doormen, Lu Buwei continued to sort out everything, but no matter how he thought about it, he never thought that he had missed anything.

Now that more than [-]% of the political power in the Great Qin Dynasty is in his hands, he really can't think of any possibility of Ying Zheng's comeback.

"Allowed, grant them the finances." After a long time, Lu Buwei smiled.

"But." Zhi Su Nei Shi was a little anxious.

"It's just a little money. This is a good thing. If there is no king, we will not be able to gain the advantage at this time."

"And as a subject, how can you refuse the king?"

Speaking calmly, Lu Buwei came to the window and slowly opened it.

'Hu~'

The cold winter wind blows, and Lu Buwei's hair is white, looking at the dimly lit Xianyang King City in the distance, tapping the wooden table with his fingers.

Under the dark night, there was a faint smile on the old face, and a cold light flickered in his eyes.

"And I'm quite curious."

"What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd of the king?"

The sound of the wind is roaring.

In Xianyang City, almost everyone knew that a big battle was inevitable.

Once Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang have completely eroded all the power left in Xianyang, a battle will be completely held.

The ascension of the king only accelerated the speed.

This battle may be silent, or it may be a catastrophe.

But no matter which side wins, it means that the national power of Great Qin will drop significantly, and it is destined to fall to the throne of the strongest in the Seven Kingdoms.

Now many beings in the Six Kingdoms are not even paying attention to Yingzheng's celebration in Huashan, but are waiting to see when Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang will finish dividing up the power of Qin and start a thorough civil war.

Like a hound ready to go, ready to move at any time.

Many Qi practitioners who belong to the Daqin Observatory are now moaning all day long, because since Yingzheng started to build the celebration, Daqin's fortune and celestial phenomena have gradually declined, no matter how they worship and pray, it is useless .

Countless officials loyal to Daqin were almost desperate when they saw this scene. Yingzheng ignored all their remonstrances. They sighed and their faces were ashen.

Even Wang Jian and Meng Ao, who were originally calm and calm, became anxious.

Originally, I thought that the one who came to the throne this time was a bright and powerful king with a bright future, who would inherit the wishes of King Zhaoxiang and King Zhuangxiang, and lead the Great Qin to continue to dominate the Seven Kingdoms, but I never thought that it would develop to this extent in the end!
Just breaking through to the Spirit Sea Realm cost so much money!
And he was so rejoicing that he ignored the government for more than four months!

The power of the current Daqin has been completely emptied by Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang.

Even their military force is being continuously eroded. Most of the military power has been controlled by these two people!

Even among them, there are quite a few people who have been vaguely shaken!

In just a few days, many of their subordinate generals came to persuade them, trying to get them to join the camp of Lu Buwei or Mrs. Huayang!

Wang Jian was better, Meng Ao beat up these generals directly in a fit of anger!
"Bullshit!"

"It's just bullshit!"

"My lord, what are you doing?!"

The situation is surging.

Ying Zheng knew all about what happened outside, but he didn't care too much. He still sat cross-legged in the Hall of Qunshu, silently cultivating the Human Emperor's Sutra, waiting for the plan to be implemented.

And in an unknown mountain forest not too far from Xianyang City, Hong Wu and others are indeed strictly implementing Ying Zheng's plan.
'boom! '

'boom! '

'boom! '

A violent sound resounded in the jungle.

Countless flocks of birds were awakened from their sleep.

They flapped their wings and fled into the sky in a panic, looking angrily at the figures who disturbed their dreams.

"Shoot fast! Move hard!"

"When you make a move, remember that you are now Qi refiners, not fucking big soldiers! Turn your mentality over to me first!"

"Cultivation can't stop!"

"As long as you don't die, I will continue to practice the cultivation method for me! The king bestowed the cultivation method on you, not for you to play tricks here!!"

A huge voice soared into the sky.

A famous bird landed, and only after they approached did they realize that there were actually twenty figures here, attacking madly in the quagmire!

These people are barebacked, wearing only a pair of tattered trousers, their muscles under the moonlight are covered with countless scars, entwined with a faint light, and their eyes are sharp and cold. Although they are still young, they can see that they have experienced countless battles. There are soldiers fighting.

At this time, they were all standing in the deep quagmire, with a faint green glow lingering all over their bodies, roaring, striking fiercely, moving quickly, and mercilessly!

Facing the same robes from the past, it was an over-the-shoulder fall, and the mud waves splashed were several meters high!
He punched his teammate and sent him flying like a sandbag!
The whole body was full of fresh air, condensed in the palm of the hand and swept out, almost breaking the arms of the opposite friend with one blow!
"right!!"

"That's it!"

One of the figures standing in the center of the quagmire was even more terrifying like a bear. With a single blow, several figures who rushed forward flew ten meters away, and then kicked the two soldiers who rushed forward, directly killing them. They flew out like kicking candied haws!

"Give me the aura of fighting on the battlefield!"

Under the darkness of night, Hong Wu roared angrily, grabbed a soldier who was rushing forward, and flung it away like a sandbag: "The battle between a Qi trainer and a soldier is different! Watch how I fight!"

"I picked you out of the ten thousand armies. If any of you dare to lose face in front of the king after a month, don't blame me for being merciless!"

"Hammer body, willow tendon, bone forging!"

"Everyone listen to me!!"

"In the remaining month, everyone has to advance to the Bone Forging Ninth Heaven!"

"If you can't reach it, let's see how I will deal with you!"

"Yes!!"

The aura of the vast world was turbulent, and twenty guards of the Black Ice Platform roared and fought each other frantically in the huge mud pit!

Brilliant streamers bloomed, looking at this group of black ice platform guards, Hong Wu's eyes were brilliant! !

The effect of the practice method bestowed by the king is much better than they imagined! !
In just four months, the realms of him, Zhao Tuo and others have all been raised to the realm of Linghai!
Even Yun Qingfeng, the suzerain of Fengqingmen, has reached the pinnacle of foundation establishment!
And after four months of practice, most of the current guards of the Black Ice Platform have entered the malleus state of first-class masters!

In order to strengthen the competition and pressure, in the last month, according to their respective cultivation methods, they divided the guards of the Black Ice Platform into five teams, with four guards in charge of [-] each.

The repair of "Yin Yang Law" was led by Zhao Tuo, Hong Wu came to "San Dan Gu Jue", "Hundred Poisons" was assigned to Yun Ye, and Jiang Che was in charge of the black ice platform of "Zhong Lu Treasure".

As for the remaining [-] Black Ice Terrace guards who had practiced the "Changning Jue", they were led by the mud monkeys!
Because in the last four months, the mud monkey has shown amazing talent!
Although it doesn't know any words, it can speak and has psychic intelligence. Except for occasionally scratching its ears and scratching its cheeks, it is basically no different from humans!
Especially on the way of cultivation, the talent of the mud monkey can be called terrifying, and it is almost a thousand miles a day!
Obviously he was the last one to practice, but his current cultivation level is already at the Ninth Heaven of Foundation Establishment, which is almost half a step to the realm of Linghai!

Zhao Tuo and the others almost watched it as a bottleneck every two days, and a level every three days!

In just four short months, he has reached the half-step spiritual sea!

Although he has not yet broken through and has been stuck for a few days, according to the current trend, within the remaining month, he will definitely be able to enter the Spirit Sea Realm!
This surprised Zhao Tuo and the other four!
You must know that they practiced so fast, but they took the king's elixir, and this mud monkey didn't eat anything, just relying on their own hard work, they reached the half-step spiritual sea within four months Realm, this cultivation talent is absolutely terrifying!
However, Zhao Tuo and others are quite pleased with the rapid progress of the mud monkey!
Because judging from the current intelligence, a big battle is absolutely inevitable.

Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang have almost swallowed up the power of the entire Xianyang.

Almost by the time the ceremony on Mount Taihua was completed, they would have devoured the power within Daqin.

And this time is the moment when the decisive battle begins!

Looking at the jungle in the distance, recalling the information he had seen before, Hong Wu smiled and narrowed his eyes.

Not counting the king, they already have four Spirit Sea Realm Qi Refiners.

In another month, both the mud monkey and Yun Qingfeng might enter the spiritual sea realm.

In addition, there are dozens of Qi refiners in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

This force is undoubtedly an absolutely terrifying force!

Although he doesn't know how many cards Lu Buwei and Mrs. Huayang have, but even if they add up, they are far less powerful than they are today!

Poor Lu Buwei, he still doesn't know what he is going to face at this time, and he is still immersed in the pursuit of power, but he doesn't know that in the face of absolute power, all means are vain after all!
Hehe, let them continue chasing and watching the show.

When the Huashan Grand Ceremony is completed, it will be the end of all this! !

Looking at Xianyang in the distance, Hong Wu showed a ferocious smile.

And just when Hong Wu gradually couldn't hold back anymore and couldn't wait for the opening of the Grand Ceremony, a blurry figure emerged beside him.

It was a slender, dark-complexioned man named Jiang Che, one of Yingzheng's four major guards, a spiritual sea-level practitioner, and a practitioner of "Zhong Lu Bao Dian".

As soon as he arrived, Jiang Che laughed heartily.

"Hahaha! Lao Hong, I have some good news for you. In Lao Tzu's team, a Foundation Establishment has appeared!"

"what?!"

Hong Wu suddenly recovered from his imagination, his eyes widened, and he looked at the opening in disbelief.

"This is impossible!"

"Hey hey hey! It's not just me, there is also a Foundation Establishment in the mud monkey's team." Jiang Che chuckled, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

But Hong Wu suddenly clenched his fists, stepped into the quagmire suddenly, and roared!
"*!! Tonight, everyone's training is doubled!"

It was snowing heavily.

It seems that even the heaven and the earth have sensed all of this, and an invisible pressure has spread among the Seven Kingdoms.

Countless people are watching the State of Qin, waiting for the construction of the Taihua Grand Ceremony to be completed.

In the Great Qin, while Hong Wu and the others supervised the construction of the Taihua Grand Ceremony in turn, they also tried their best to practice hard according to everything recorded in the cultivation method, and tried their best not to fall behind the other four teams.

In this tense atmosphere.

A month passed quietly.

When the first ray of sunshine in the fifth month falls on the earth and the dark clouds in the sky gradually disperse.
Zhao Tuo did not know when he had arrived at the Daqin Qunshu Hall, and spoke respectfully.

"Return to the king."

"Many buildings on Mount Taihua have been completed."

"The grand ceremony is ready, please come to the king!"
