Chapter 378 A familiar figure by the Xuanwu Lake
(wwWsUiMeNGCom)(wwW。
"May I have your name"
"My name is Wen Zhen"
"You are very good and smart." Shi Yan nodded, "Indeed, the Third Prince has some plans."
Shi Yan's words attracted everyone's attention. Shi Yan smiled and said, "Are you all wondering why the Third Prince, who has been doing nothing, suddenly wants to plot something?"
Shi Xingyuan frowned slightly and guessed: "The day of climbing Mount Xian is approaching, the Third Prince must be getting anxious."
When climbing Mt. Xian, he was full of doubts. “The journey is long. I have been in seclusion for a long time. There are many things I have never heard of. Can you tell me in detail?”
Shi Xingyuan looked at Shi Yan and said, "It's normal that you haven't heard of it. Before I joined the army, I hadn't heard of it either. Xianshan is a sacred mountain in the center of the Three Realms. It was called Xianshan before. After we moved to the Three Realms, we changed its name to Xianshan. Although there are constant wars in our Yellow Sky, Blue Sky and Cangtian Three Realms, every hundred years, Xianshan is opened. All the strong people in the Three Realms must be gathered to climb the mountain. This grand event is known to people with status in the Three Realms. The lower-class people are completely deceived. According to legend, there are seeds of the fifth-level divine power on the mountain. They are the seeds left on Xianshan by the original three heavens. They are the seeds leading to the divine power. According to legend, whoever gets the seeds will be able to realize the divine power."
"The power of God!" Everyone exclaimed. This is a legendary power. Although it exists, it only exists in history and is illusory. I don't know how many people have spent their entire lives seeking the power of God but have found nothing. Now, I heard that there is a seed on Mount Xian that can realize the power of God. How can people not be surprised?
"But for the past three thousand years, there has been such a grand event every hundred years, but no one has ever obtained the power of God. However, in addition to the seeds of the power of God, there are many rare treasures on Mount Xian. Many people who have powerful abilities in the history of Dongtian Fudi have realized great powers on Mount Xian."
Everyone present was rubbing their hands, eager to try out the intangible power of God. Although everyone was eager, they did not yearn for it very much. Instead, they yearned for the great power that Shi Xingyuan talked about.
Shi Xingyuan looked at their Nirvana and smiled bitterly, "Don't be like this, with our level, we can't even enter the threshold of the fairy mountain, let alone climb the mountain."
Man San said nonchalantly: "Xingyuan, you are wrong. As the saying goes, if there is a will, there will be a way. Even a reckless man like me knows this, how come you don't know it?"
"Brother Manzi is right. If there is a will, there is a way." Shi Yan applauded. "We should not underestimate ourselves. If even we look down on ourselves, who else will look up to us?" He smiled, looked at Shi Xingyuan, and said, "Go on."
Shi Xingyuan nodded, "Every hundred years when they climb Mt. Xian, the three gods will send their own princes to climb the mountain. This is not an ordinary climb. This climb is related to the succession of the throne." When he said this, he glanced outside the tent. Niu Quanli was the attendant of the third prince. He was outside the tent. Shi Xingyuan was afraid that he would hear it.
"So, the Third Prince needs us." Shi Yan nodded, "Indeed."
Shi Xingyuan smiled and said, "Of course, Prime Minister Wenren in the court clearly supports the eldest prince. In the stable, with Prime Minister Wenren watching, the third prince is completely unable to move. This incident in Binhai Realm can be said to have given the third prince an opportunity."
Shi Yan nodded, looked at everyone, and said: "This is not only an opportunity for the Third Prince, but also an opportunity for our Rogue Camp."
Shi Yan stood up from his seat, paced slowly in the tent, and said calmly: "I know you don't care about fame or anything like that, but have you ever thought about how your General Wu died?"
When it comes to General Wu's death, everyone clenched their fists. Man Sanda shouted, "General Wu was framed and died."
"That's right, General Wu was framed and died, which means that General Wu died unjustly." Shi Yan slammed the table and shouted, "General Wu died unjustly, you know that? He died unjustly." He pointed at everyone, "You have never thought about clearing General Wu's name?"
"Of course not, but we are the soldiers led by General Wu, who would believe us?" Man San glared at Shi Yan angrily and shouted
Shi Xingyuan pulled Man San's sleeve and sighed: "Manzi, don't be impulsive, General Haotian, if you have anything to say, just say it directly."
Shi Yan shook his head, "It's not that I have anything to say, but General Wu died with his eyes open."
The four words "die with eyes wide open" resounded in everyone's mind like thunder.
"Die with eyes wide open"
Shi Yan said again: "Do you know why there is no way to redress General Wu's injustice? It's because you don't have the status. If you had the status of a marshal, who wouldn't believe you? So I said, this is also an opportunity for us in the ruffian camp, an opportunity to redress General Wu's injustice. If we miss this opportunity, perhaps General Wu will have to endure the injustice in his grave for the rest of his life."
After saying this, Shi Yan left the tent without waiting for anyone to react.
After leaving the tent, Shi Yan took a deep breath and smiled bitterly, "Isn't it a bit too bad to use a dead person like this?"
The breeze is gentle, the willows are swaying
Under the shining sun, Xuanwu Lake sparkles with golden light. A breeze blows, and the ripples sway, carrying the sunlight back and forth, charming the eye. The spacious lake surface is shimmering, and the cruise ships are like fishes emerging from the lake.
This is Jinling, the Xuanwu Lake of Jinling in Tianlong Realm
That's right, this is Jinling. After finishing the training in the Rogue Camp yesterday, seeing that there was nothing to do, Shi Yan went straight back to Dongbai City. Niu Quanli said that the Third Prince gave him a week to get familiar with the Rogue Camp. Seeing that only two days had passed and there was still plenty of time, he brought a group of people to Jinling in the Tianlong Realm.
Shi Yan and Long Er stood under the willows, looking at the scenery of Xuanwu Lake and feeling the gentle breeze, feeling very comfortable.
On the lake, countless students and officials stood at the bows, looking at the boats with the rich girls on board, shaking their heads, as if reciting poems or composing couplets. Some even held flutes and played them at the bows, attracting the girls on the boats to applaud.
Seeing these people so leisurely, Shi Yan sighed in his heart. If there hadn't been the extreme cold, he might have been like them, reciting poems, drinking wine, and chatting with girls. How comfortable it would have been.
Feeling that Shi Yan was different, Long Er frowned and asked, "Brother Shi Yan, what's wrong?"
Shi Yan shook his head and said, "This was originally our human place. We humans should have been playing on this lake, but now, all I see are the great beings who were born as humans. I feel the weight on my shoulders is very heavy."
Shi Yan chuckled and rolled his eyes at Shi Yan, "What does this have to do with you? I think you are attracted by the show on the flower boat. Why are you attracted to it when Sister Mo and Sister Ye are not watching you?"
Shi Yan coughed dryly and said seriously: "How could it be? Do you think Brother Shi Yan is that kind of person? Look at my expression, how upright and honest he is."
Long Er laughed sweetly, like a blooming peony, attracting the attention of countless people. Even the show on the flower boat was watched in a trance.
"How can there be such a beautiful smile in the world?"
Shi Yan quickly grabbed Long Er's hand and went into a restaurant behind him.
This time I came to Jinling secretly, it's not good to be so prominent.
After asking for a private room, Shi Yan went straight to the window and continued to look at the Xuanwu Lake.
Long Er's fair little hand was held in Shi Yan's hand. Feeling the warmth from his hand, he couldn't help but blush.
However, Shi Yan was only looking at Xuanwu Lake, but he did not notice
At this time, there were exclamations from the lake. Five exquisite pleasure boats were seen floating down the lake. Each boat had three or four-story lanterns hanging high, and eaves and pavilions. They looked like attics in the water. It was indescribable how magnificent they were. It was a pity that they were surrounded by gauze, so the scenery inside could not be seen clearly. Seeing the people around making such a commotion, these five pleasure boats must be extraordinary.
Behind these five pleasure boats, there were three auxiliary boats. On the middle boat, a man stood at the bow, fanning himself with a smile on his face, but there was a strong lustful look between his brows. It was Mo Buyong.
Shi Yan shook his head, "Even if Mo Buyong is wearing fine clothes and furs on the boat, he doesn't look like a young master."
Long Er curled his lips, "This guy is just a bitch, with shifty eyebrows and rat eyes. No matter what clothes he wears, you can tell at a glance that he is not a good person."
Shi Yan laughed. Mo Buyong often harassed Long Er. If it weren't for Shi Yan's sake, Long Er would have killed him long ago.
"Are you sure those two are on the boat?"
Long Er smiled and said, "Naturally."
"These two are really bold. They cruise around Xuanwu Lake so openly. I wonder what they are thinking." Shi Yan stared at the five pleasure boats and said lightly, "Could it be that they are also planning to meet the courtesan of Miaoxianfang?"
These five pleasure boats belong to Miaoxianfang on the Qinhuai River, which is the largest red-light district on the Qinhuai River. Recently, a courtesan named Ning Xinyi came to Miaoxianfang. She has a stunning appearance and has attracted the hearts of all the young men in Jinling City.
Shi Yan smiled and said, "I want to go and see it for myself."
Long Er pouted and snorted, "What's there to see? It's just a pair of eyes, a nose and a mouth. Could it be that she has three heads and six arms?"
When Shi Yan thought about Ning Xinyi's three heads and six arms, he suddenly shuddered. It was too scary.
"I've seen many people with three heads and six arms, but I've never seen many people who are stunningly beautiful with just a pair of eyes, a nose and a mouth." Hearing a snort from behind, Shi Yan quickly said with a smile: "Long Er is one of them."
"Hmph, you're lucky you're quick to react, otherwise I'd bite you to death." Long Er bared his filial teeth and said,
This threat is really scary.
Suddenly, a figure passed by the corner of Xuanwu Lake, which made Shi Yan stunned.
For some reason, that figure gave people a very familiar feeling, but they couldn't tell who it was for a moment.
"I have something urgent to do. Please wait for me for a moment. I will come to find you later." After saying this, Shi Yan climbed out of the window and jumped down.
Long Er looked at Shi Yan's departing back and snorted, "What's the hurry? I think you've taken a fancy to some show."
ps: I finished typing at 4am this morning, but Zongheng can't be opened no matter what. What a pity!
I guess I won't update during the Chinese New Year, but if I have time, I might update a few chapters.
I wish you all a happy new year
