After the immortal disappeared

Having said that, He Xiao had actually used this method in Yao Country. With just the false title of "Assistant Manager", he allowed the King of Yao to siphon all the wealth of the Yao people to Tianshui New City, which triggered the conflict between the King of Yao and the God of Heaven!

Yuan Xuan couldn't help but whispered: "Palace Master, the gods..."

Qingyang raised his hand to interrupt him: "Now that things have come to this, even the gods have to play along with me."

She used to be more afraid of He Lingchuan than Bai Ziqi, so she avoided He Lingchuan's challenge. Unexpectedly, Bai Ziqi + Miao Zhantian both failed.

This heavy responsibility finally fell on her shoulders.

In time, "Emperor Jiuyou" will become a big problem. She would rather sacrifice herself and win this time than let the emperor deal with this cancer of He Xiao!

"Bring me a pen and paper. I need to send a message to King Peleus."

Mian City in the south-central part of the Golden Plains.

The Autumn Lantern Festival is coming in three days. This is a festival to celebrate the harvest and pray for a smooth year. There is a custom of hanging lanterns in central and southern Taiwan.

Miancheng is famous for its handmade lanterns, and the peak season for lantern sales begins one and a half months before the festival. The shops are filled with all kinds of lanterns, and the streets and alleys are colorful every night.

But this year's Autumn Lantern Festival was not only lively but also unusual. There were a lot of people on the street, but apart from the children, most of the pedestrians were in a hurry and few people actually went to buy lanterns.

"What a loss, such a huge loss!" Several lantern vendors gathered together and muttered, "This year we made thirty more lanterns than last year, but in the end we only sold five!"

"You spend all day at home making lamps, and never look up to see what's happening outside!"

"what happens?"

They were standing right next to the notice board. The lights on the stalls illuminated the words on the notice, and one sentence stood out the most:

“Heaven helps those who help themselves; God saves those who save themselves.”

At this time, someone ran past them, making a crackling sound, almost splashing mud and water all over them.

"Don't you have eyes?"

"Are you rushing to attend a funeral?"

No matter how the vendors behind him cursed, he still ran into the Lao Family Inn at the corner of the street, rushed into the living room and said to the shopkeeper:

"Oh no, oh no! Luofengtan..."

The shopkeeper grabbed his arm and said, "Keep your voice down! Don't scare my customers!"

His living room is not small, but it is already dinner time and there are only two tables of guests.

Business is not doing well these days. The bustling scenes on the streets outside are all false prosperity.

"Uncle, why are you still opening the shop at this time? Yundong City Lord's Luofengtan has been taken down by Guo Baiyu. Let's go!"

The shopkeeper was shocked: "Luofengtan was occupied? Who told you that?"

"My cousin, he just escaped from Luofengtan!"

Cousin? That's more reliable. "What's going on?"

"Guo Baiyu broke through the gate of Luofengtan the night before yesterday, and the army rushed in! My cousin and his friends had heard that after Guo Baiyu captured Huancheng, he let his men plunder the entire city for a whole day, stealing money and women, and killing many people! This was a lesson from the previous incident, and they were scared to death. It happened that the west wall was being repaired, and the ladders were not removed, so they climbed over the ladders and fled out of the city!"

With a "bang", they both turned around and saw a diner's chopsticks fell to the ground.

The man's face turned pale, and he didn't even bother to pick up his chopsticks: "What did you say, Huancheng was captured by Guo Baiyu?"

"Oh yeah, it was almost a month ago."

The informant corrected the shopkeeper: "It was twenty-five days ago."

"How could it be?" The diner looked incredulous. "Didn't they say that Huancheng had been taken over by the Black Armor Army? I also heard that the new city guard, Lu Shuheng, was sent by the Dragon God. He's very, very powerful."

"Guo Baiyu is even more powerful. After the Black Armor Army left, Lu Shuheng took over Huancheng for less than ten days, and Guo Baiyu led his army to launch a sneak attack in the middle of the night. That huge army was terrifying!"

The diner opened his mouth and took a while to digest the news: "Then, what about the new city guard Lu Shuheng?"

"The head was chopped off and hung outside the city gate for public display, with a cloth strip next to it that reads 'You are incompetent to play tricks, I will kick the gate of Jiuyou'." The shopkeeper sighed, "This Guo is so bold that he dares to challenge the Great Emperor Jiuyou directly."

The informant chuckled, "Earlier, the Black Armor Army flattened six cities, seven counties, and eighteen villages here, but they didn't dare to touch Guo Baiyu's Changpei City from beginning to end. Do you think he is not brave? He has something to rely on."

The shopkeeper shook his head: "Emperor Jiuyou can kill even the gods, so a warlord leader is no problem. Just wait and see, retribution will come soon!"

"I'm afraid that Guo Baiyu's retribution has not come yet, and our store will be gone first!" The reporter shook his head. "It's been so many days, and Guo Baiyu has been bullying and enjoying the good life in Huancheng all day long, why hasn't the Nine Nether Emperor or the Black Armor Army come back to kill him? Isn't it said that the Dragon God has reincarnated to punish evildoers and eliminate evil? Alas, the city guard appointed by the Dragon God himself was beheaded by someone with a single blow."

The shopkeeper shushed him twice: "Don't speak ill of the Dragon God, or you'll get into trouble!"

"Isn't it bad luck now? Where is the Dragon God? Where is he? Instead, the evil star is nearby. Uncle, you might as well close the store and run away with us."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he shook his head repeatedly:

"Luofengtan is far from here. Besides, Guo Baiyu just conquered such a good place, how can he turn around and attack Miancheng?"

The customer didn't understand and asked, "I'm from out of town, is Luofengtan a good place?"

"After passing Luofengtan, we will reach Yundong." The shopkeeper said, "In the past ten years or so, the five cities and thirteen villages under the command of the Yundong City Lord have lived a much better life than other places."

The informant also said: "At least they can have enough food. Every time there is a famine, some of our people sneak over here. Oh, the Black Armor Army was very powerful some time ago, but they didn't attack the territory of Yundong City."

The customer asked curiously, "Why did Guo go to Luofengtan?"

The messenger chuckled, "To collect food, to feed the army. What else could it be? Luofengtan is rich in fish and rice. Guo Baiyu's occupation of such a place is equivalent to the output of three or four Mian cities."

The shopkeeper said, "Yes, that's why I said Guo Baiyu won't come for the time being. Luofengtan is richer than our place, and Guo's army can

Even if he wanted to attack a city, there were many options. There were so many towns, counties, and villages nearby. Why did he choose Miancheng?"
