Chapter 180 The changing world situation

The first day of August in the year 1322 of the New Yu Calendar
Yongzhou is located to the north of the Yunlan River. The terrain is mainly plains. The entire state runs from northwest to southeast and is divided into three tracts and eight prefectures.

The three paths are Shangyuan Dao, Zhongyuan Dao, and Lower Yuan Dao.

According to the topography, the eight prefectures can be roughly divided into Xingnan Prefecture in the southeast and Chili Prefecture in the south. These two prefectures are under the jurisdiction of Xiayuan Dao;
Hongyuan Prefecture in the north, Zhongyuan Prefecture in the middle section where the capital of Yongzhou is located, and Hongdu Prefecture in the south of Zhongyuan Prefecture, these three prefectures all belong to Zhongyuan Dao;
The final Shangyuan Road also has three prefectures, namely Anyuan Prefecture to the northwest of Zhongyuan Prefecture, Dingyuan Prefecture to the southwest, and Jiuling Prefecture to the northwest, which borders Bingzhou.

The eight prefectures have 64 counties under their jurisdiction, with a population of nearly [-] million. Although everyone is under the rule of the Rakshasa Holy Sect and the canonized sect is revered, there are still some subtle differences in customs and customs due to different geographical locations.

For example, the whole Yongzhou is still dark, and most of the clothes are short and sharp, but if you look carefully, you will still find some subtle differences.

People in Xingnan Prefecture, which is close to Xuzhou, have more styles of clothing colors. Especially due to the influence of Xuzhou, white has gradually become the preference of a small number of people;
The people of Chili Prefecture in the far south are influenced by the foreign tribes from southern Xinjiang. Some people like to wear some decorations made of animal skins or animal teeth.

This is the case in other locations, and naturally it is also the case in Jiuling Mansion, which borders Bingzhou.

The ruler of Bingzhou is the Blood Spirit Demon Sect. Most demons advocate the law of the jungle and like to use their fists to reason. The Blood Spirit Demon Sect is naturally no exception. To a certain extent, the Blood Spirit Demon Sect returns this law to Bingzhou. After being strengthened, they even became involved with evil.

Having said this, I have to mention the origin of the Blood Spirit Sect!

The founder of the Blood Spirit Demon Sect, Fairy Hongyun Meng Qiuli, was originally just an ordinary concubine in the harem of Yu Wuzong Jiang Tianming.

Rumor has it that she entered the palace in the 21st year of Emperor Wuzong's reign. She was not favored by Jiang Tianming at the beginning. Later, she got a copy of the Blood Spirit Sacred Method from unknown sources. After completing it, she became extremely powerful and charming. She initially gained the favor of Emperor Wuzong.

Later, Meng Qiuli deliberately showed her wisdom, which made Wu Zong trust her more and more. Once, he made an exception and asked her to handle government affairs for him. This was just a test. Who would have thought that although Meng Qiuli was a woman, she could handle government affairs as well as men.

After several times, she dealt with it in an orderly manner, and she could not find any faults inside or outside the court. So Wu Zong liked this concubine even more, and named her the Holy Concubine of Dayu Lingtian. Her status was second only to the queen, and there were no other concubines in the future. Despite the objections of the courtiers, more and more government affairs were handed over to her. According to rumors, in the end, it even developed to the point where she did not attend the morning court for 25 consecutive years.

One can imagine the reputation of such a generation of demon concubines among the civil and military officials of the Divine Court, as well as among the people. However, Meng Qiuli was also not a good person. She used her power to handle the government affairs of the Divine Dynasty to win over Zhao Yulong, the then Marshal of the Army, and suppress dissidents. , consolidated his position, and remained majestic in the divine dynasty for nearly a hundred years.

It was not until the chaos in the world gradually emerged that Wu Zong suddenly woke up and wanted to work hard to govern, so he came out to take over the power. Although he did not abolish Meng Qiuli, due to pressure, he neglected her from then on, causing her status to plummet.

There are still different opinions on how the mighty Yu Dynasty perished at that time, and there is no fixed theory. However, everyone accepts the fact that the demon concubine has caused chaos in the country for hundreds of years. As long as you think of Bingzhou and Blood Spirit, Holy Sect, Meng Qiuli’s deeds that harmed the country and the people will still be remembered.

There were a total of 2991 years in the Dayu calendar. In the following 159 years of Emperor Wu's reign, the world was actually not very peaceful. Especially in the last 50 years, there were frequent wars in the world. With Zhao Yulong openly rebelling against Yu, the divine dynasty also became unstable. Started to fall apart quickly.

At that time, Meng Qiuli, the Holy Concubine of the Heavenly Spirit of Dayu, did not want to sit still and wait for death. Seeing that Zhao Yulong was unreliable, she joined forces with Yuwen Hongzhang, the former divine general of the Divine Court of Dayu in advance. The two of them rebelled together and defected to the north with an army of 50 people. , quickly occupied the four states of You, Yu, Fen, and Bing, and established the Great Jin Dynasty. The two emperors were in the same heaven, and they were in the limelight for a while. They almost unified the six northern states and aspired to the world.

It's a pity that the two people were only temporarily united, but they seemed to be inseparable but they met the joint resistance of Moyan Holy Sect and Rakshasa Holy Sect. In addition, Zhengdao did not want to sit back and watch the Great Jin Holy Dynasty unify the north, and also opposed them.

Although the Great Jin Dynasty was at its peak at that time, it had to surrender in the face of all the heroes in the world, and the two eventually parted ways.

Meng Qiuli was assigned to the two states of Bing and Fen to establish the Blood Spirit Demon Sect, while Yuwen Hongzhang was assigned to the two states of You and Yu to continue to maintain the Jin Dynasty.

Later, Meng Qiuli's practice went wrong, which caused internal problems within the Blood Spirit Demon Sect and its development lagged behind. On the contrary, Yuwen Hongzhang's Great Jin Dynasty, after the initial stability of the world, immediately followed the example of the Great Yu Dynasty. Through various governance measures, over hundreds of years, his strength increased by leaps and bounds, and he became the leader of the demonic path.

In the 891st year of the New Yu calendar, that is, 431 years ago, the Blood Spirit Demon Sect was in civil strife. The Jin Dynasty took the opportunity to annex Fenzhou. The Blood Spirit Demon Sect only had a piece of land in Bingzhou. The heroes of the righteous path intervened, causing the Great Jin Dynasty to lose its luster. It was feared that the Blood Spirit Demon Sect would not even be able to keep its territory in Bingzhou.

Although the origin of the Blood Spirit Demon Sect and the personal experience of its founder Meng Qiuli are not glorious, it is still one of the top ten holy places in the world. As the saying goes, there are still three thousand nails in the broken ship. The strength of the Blood Spirit Demon Sect is Nature cannot be underestimated.

The most criticized point of Meng Qiuli's Blood Spirit Holy Method is that it uses human blood as a guide, and a large amount of human blood. Naturally, this will inevitably lead to massacres, and it also requires a large number of living people. Zhengdao doesn't like them, and even the Rakshasa Holy Sect and Moyan Holy Sect, which are the devil's path, are a little disgusted with them.

Generally speaking, when the Blood Spirit Holy Sect is strong, they will infiltrate, either to rob people in Yongzhou in the east, or to cause trouble in Fenzhou, their original territory in the northeast. When they are weak, they will go to Yongzhou in the east to cause trouble. In the western border, look for those small countries outside the region. Over the years, it is rumored that many small countries in the western region have been raised by the Blood Spirit Demon Sect as blood pools, so their strength has grown by leaps and bounds.

The strength of the Blood Spirit Demon Sect has been expanding recently. This is no secret. At least it is strongly felt by the Great Jin Holy Dynasty and the Rakshasa Holy Sect.

Because recently, both states have felt the infiltration of the Blood Spirit Demon Sect!
………………

Yongzhou West, Beixi County
There are eight counties under the jurisdiction of Jiuling Prefecture. From west to east, they are Daiwang, Boyan, Yetao, Guxin, Tianchang, Guangfu, Nuanquan, and Beixi. Geographically speaking, Beixi is the closest to Bingzhou and is affected by The biggest impact is naturally on Beixi County.

In the center of the city, people of all kinds are walking on the streets. Although most of them are wearing black clothes, you can still see some red and gold mixed in. Some people's clothes are made of black fabric but embroidered with gold. Texture lines, or red lines.

Meng Qiuli likes red the most, so the Blood Spirit Demon Sect uses the redness of their clothing to distinguish the grades of their disciples. The clothing style of the leader of a state will naturally affect the clothing of the people in the state, so most people in Bingzhou prefer red.

The golden ones are due to the Jin Dynasty in the north.

In a room with a wide view on the top of the third floor of the Sacred Heart Residence in Beixi County, a beautiful girl in blue was standing by the window, looking at the various people coming and going on the street, and suddenly became interested He turned to look at the maid in black next to him.

"Shaoyao, do you know what I like most about Yongzhou?"

"It goes without saying that it must be Yongdu. The young lady grew up in Yongdu. The main altar of our Holy Cult and the leader are all there. The young lady must like Yongdu the most!"

The answer of the maid in black made the girl in blue smile and shake her head.

The maid in black suddenly looked confused and asked: "Isn't it Yongdu?"

"What I like most are the various borders of Yongzhou, such as Tongling County where we stayed last year, and Beixi County where we have stayed for such a long time now!"

"Tongling, Beixi?" Shaoyao murmured, and the confusion on her face suddenly became more intense. In her eyes, these two places are considered to be the most poor places in Yongzhou. How could the young lady like this kind of thing if she is so noble? place.

"Because in these places, I can see many different colors. Look at the clothes these people wear, some are gold, some are red, and last year's Tongling, there are white, yellow, and green. These two places are not like Yongdu. , and it’s not like other places in Yongzhou, it’s all black and dark..."

Looking at Shaoyao's confused expression, Sikong Yue shook her head. Suddenly, she frowned slightly, gently waved her hand to blow out a wisp of Qi, closed the window, walked slowly back to the room, and sat on a chair.

Shaoyao thought Sikong Yue had some instructions and was about to speak when suddenly Fu Ling's voice came from the door. She hurriedly opened the door and brought Fu Ling in.

Poria was dressed in black and her breathing was a little quick. She had obviously just rushed back from somewhere. When she saw Sikong Yue, she wanted to salute, but she gently helped him up.

"No need to be polite, just tell me the news!"

Fu Ling nodded respectfully, with a slightly excited look on her face, and said with cupped hands: "Young lady, you really know what's going to happen. Last night, after Ji Yanzhi failed to break through the boundary in Tongling, the projection of the Zuo Protector appeared, frightened away the Fengtianhou Jing Tianyu with a palm, and warned him After visiting Leiyin Temple and the other three holy places, they immediately tore up the Jindu Covenant.

The Lord of Jiuling Palace told me that Tongling is now preparing for war, and Yongdu has begun to increase troops to Xingnan Palace. The war should start soon! "

The Holy Sect of Rakshasa also spent a lot of effort in ruling Yongzhou. The state is vast in territory, and if it relies solely on manpower to transmit messages, it will inevitably be sparse and lagging behind. Therefore, the Holy Sect has set up Tianshu Mirrors in eight cities under its rule a long time ago. Once an emergency occurs in any of the Eight Prefectures, it must be transmitted to the Tianshu Mirror. The other seven prefectures, including Yongdu, can understand the situation through the Tianshu Mirror in order to respond.

Last night, the voice of Zuo Protector Huangfu Xing tearing up the Jin capital alliance had spread throughout Yongzhou. Sikong Yue immediately asked her to rush to Fucheng to find out the news. To be precise, he asked her to confirm the news.

Although she knew that the young lady was extremely smart, after going to Jiuling Mansion to confirm the news in person, Fuling refreshed her understanding of the young lady once again, because what she reported was actually on her way out of Tongling at the end of last year. Sikong Yue had already told herself.

At that time, Poria felt a little unbelievable, so she couldn't believe it. She didn't expect that when she went to Jiuling Mansion for verification this time, everything was confirmed one by one...

Facing Poria's admiring eyes, Sikong Yue's face remained normal. She didn't show any surprise when she heard the news. She just lowered her head and pondered for a moment, with a trace of doubt in her eyes, and asked, "Yongdu is recruiting more troops? Is it possible?" When the Xuzhou army crossed the border to attack Tongling, did Peng Yuhu not lead the army to Xuzhou?"

Only then did Fuling remember that there was such a problem, and hurriedly said: "I called them. It was said that Fanyin Jialan had already greeted Peng Yuhu. Now the army seems to be surrounding Wanyang County and can't get in. I don't know if there are more troops." Help them!"

Sikong Yue directly shook her head and denied Fuling's words, and said softly: "It is a small Wanyang County, and Aunt Qing is here, so it will be easy to capture it. Yongdu is increasing its troops at this time, and it should be the news that Xuzhou will not give up the west third of Guangling Prefecture easily. County, Wanjian Shengzong was a little unprepared for Uncle Huangfu's act of tearing up the covenant, but Xuzhou is their home field after all. If they insist on resisting, they may only rely on the 20 troops of Xingnan Prefecture without reinforcements. I really can’t take it off.”

Poria was already a little confused, let alone Shaoyao next to her. They couldn't understand what Xisanjun was insisting on resisting. They could only look at Sikong Yue with two pairs of big eyes.

But it was a pity that Si Kong Yue obviously had no idea of ​​​​solving their doubts.

"Who are the people from the Holy Land who showed up this time? Has Jiuling Mansion confirmed it?"

"Yes, in addition to Ji Yanzhi and Protector Zuo, there are five masters from Leiyin Temple, Nan Yaoshi Buddha, Wu Xin Taoist from Ziqing Sheng Sect, Zen Master Yuankong, Zen Master Yuanfa, Mo Xuzi, Zhang Yuning, and Lian Ningxue, Xuzhou Gu Tianyun is here too, that’s all these people!”

"White Deer Academy, Ziqing Holy Sect, Dayu Holy Dynasty, Haoran Holy Sect, plus Wanjian Holy Sect and Rakshasa Holy Sect, in a small Tongling, people from the six holy places showed up, and even It’s really lively……”

Sikong Yue groaned softly, with a trace of mockery on the corner of his mouth and his eyes slightly lowered.

"By the way, miss, the Jin Dynasty used to stir up trouble everywhere, but no one came to this Tongling Rebellion from beginning to end. This is a bit strange!"

Hearing Fuling's words, Sikong Yue chuckled and said, "You thought they didn't come, but in fact they had arrived a long time ago. The moment Uncle Huangfu tore up the Jin capital alliance, Da Jin was already in the midst of turmoil in the two states. Ji Yanzhi provoked a war between Yongxu and Yongzhou with his death. Do you think the Jin Dynasty didn't know about it?

Yongdu is increasing its troops at this moment, probably because he wants to quickly end the war between the two states before the Jin Dynasty gets involved. Otherwise, if the Jin Dynasty enters the scene, the war will be endless! "

Hearing Sikong Yue's words, Fuling's expression suddenly condensed. Then she realized the seriousness of the problem and fell into silence.

"It's only been one night. I guess the Great Jin Dynasty is already thinking about how to publicize this matter. Four great masters appeared in Tongling, the third-level demon, the great Confucian Ji Yanzhi died in Yongzhou one after another, and Jing Tianyu was defeated. , Xuzhou took the lead in breaking the contract and attacking Yongzhou. The Jin Dynasty can use any incident to make moves. It’s ridiculous that each of the six holy places has its own secrets and thinks it will benefit, but it turns out that the Jin Dynasty makes a lot of money..."

Sikong Yue kept shaking her head, with a look of helplessness on her face. After a while, she seemed to have thought of something, and asked Fuling with interest: "By the way, how did the Hou family from the Tongling small clan perform this time?"

Only then did Fuling suddenly remember that there was still this problem, and hurriedly opened her mouth to report it, but at the same time as she spoke, the look on her face suddenly became a little shocked, even complicated.

"Miss, your vision is so brilliant. That Hou Yuxiao is indeed extraordinary. When we left last year, he had just cultivated in the Jusha stage. During the Tongling Rebellion, he had actually broken through to the second level of Grandmaster. Not only that, that Hou Yuxiao also assisted Fanyin. The master defended Tongling and single-handedly killed the traitorous Ding Dian.

I heard from the head of the Jiuling Mansion that this time the Hou family annexed the three influent families in Tongling in one fell swoop. With tens of thousands of warriors under their command, they are the only one in Tongling. It is almost certain that the surviving influent family will replace Daluo Sect as the master of Tongling. That’s it…”

Seeing that Sikong Yue still looked calm, Fuling was a little helpless. She was even thinking in her heart, could it be that the young lady has already taken care of all this?

No wonder she thinks so. The key is that even she doesn't believe what she said about Hou Yuxiao. This is simply too outrageous...

In just half a year, how could Hou Yuxiao, who was not worth mentioning in front of them, become so powerful?
In the past six months, the three of them have only broken through from the Dan Bao stage to the Grandmaster level. However, following the young lady, they have almost no shortage of martial arts and resources. Hou Yuxiao's strength has actually improved even more than the three of them. It's so fast, it's incredible.

"Li Yuansheng, after listening for so long, come out!"

Poria was still thinking when she suddenly heard Sikong Yue's voice, and her body suddenly trembled. Shaoyao, who was standing next to her, also frowned at this time. She noticed that there was a strange smell rising in the room, and she hurriedly walked to Sikong Yue. Yue's side.

At the door of the room, a wisp of blood mist slowly emerged. The blood mist outlined countless blood vessel lines in the air, and finally gradually turned into a human form. A sinister young man wearing red clothes, holding a sharp sword, and an evil face stood in front of three people. in front of people.

The young man in red always had an evil smile on his face. Only after seeing Sikong Yue did he restrain himself.

"Yuan Sheng, see the princess!"
