All the Three Realms know that the Heavenly Emperor has a white moonlight

The 72 countries in the Western Regions are all subordinate states of the Yong Dynasty.

Before Emperor Shengwu came to the throne, the Yong Dynasty was torn apart, and the vassal kings rose to power, and there were many princes who colluded with foreign countries.

At that time, the Great Yong Dynasty was like an old giant elephant. Whether it was the Western Regions or Dongying, Nanyang or Beiyi, they were all looking forward to the day when this giant beast would die forever. to share a hearty meal.

Even those small tribes that cannot be named have their own plans, trying to carve up a piece of territory belonging to the Great Yong Dynasty and establish their own kingdom.

And, their expectations were almost fulfilled.

However, no one expected that a deposed prince who was born out of nowhere and a son-in-law who was abandoned by Xiangguo's mansion would lead a team of tens of thousands of people to fight all the way back to the capital from Anyi, becoming the last backbone supporting the crumbling building .

Prince Tan Yuan and Marshal Yun Xi, these two people turned the tide and helped the building to collapse. They forcibly pulled a crumbling and decadent dynasty back from the precipice of destruction, and created a brilliant world that attracted the attention of the world. prosperity.

These two not only unified the fragmented Great Yong Dynasty in the shortest time, but even beat up all the ministries of various countries that originally tried to split the Great Yong Dynasty.

The surrounding countries that were originally brave and fearless, after being firmly pressed on the ground and rubbed on the ground in turn, the smart ones scrambled to submit their credentials to the Dayong Dynasty as ministers, and those who were a little slow to respond could only I saw myself transforming from a country into the inspection department of the Great Yong Dynasty.

Throughout the past dynasties, those who can crown the emperor with the two characters of Wen and Wu have extraordinary talents, and the Emperor Wu of the Yong Dynasty has an additional holy character, which shows that his meritorious deeds are unprecedented.

Today, the road from Dayong to other dependent countries is unimpeded.

It's just that after crossing the boundary marker of the Dayong Dynasty, the green vegetation became more and more sparse as we went west, so that there was almost only yellow sand left in the sky, and occasionally a few sparse bushes could be seen.

A fairy gourd carried Ling Xiao, Yun Jinghu and Shen Lingjun to the Yiluo country at lightning speed along the way.

Chu Hanyi followed behind the fairy gourd with Yujian alone, his eyes were always glued to Lingxiao's body and never moved away.

"A mere Yiluo country dares to tease the Dayong Dynasty. It's enough." Ling Xiao became angry when he thought of Qing Lian and Mo Yun.

Yun Jinghu was lying behind the gourd, fiddling with the two mandarin duck pendants in his palm.

Now he began to doubt whether his feelings for Mo Yun were liking or habitual dependence?

If Mo Yun really wanted to leave his side, wouldn't it be better for him to simply let go?

Ling Xiao glanced at Yunjing Lake, and suddenly regretted his original decision.

He picked up Mo Yun covered in blood on the way to fight against chaos.

At that time, Mo Yun's meridians all over his body were cut off, and his lungs were almost completely injured, only the breath was exhaled but not inhaled.

Seeing that he was dressed in Dayong people's clothes and was abandoned in the wilderness, Ling Xiao thought that he was a Dayong citizen who was injured by bandits outside the region and abandoned here, so he ordered the military doctor to take him with him, and tried every means to bring him back. Hanging in one breath.

In fact, he should have noticed the clues long ago. If an ordinary person suffered such a serious injury, he would have passed away long ago. How could he wait for someone to find out and rescue him.

With such a serious injury, even the military doctor expressed helplessness, and said that unless it was the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir taken by an immortal, there was no way to recover.

However, Mo Yun held on to that breath until all the wounds on his body healed without medicine.

In order to repay Yunxi's life-saving grace, Mo Yun promised to do something for Yunxi.

At that time, Yun Xi had just returned to the imperial court after winning the victory, and before she entered the capital, she heard that Tan Yuan had ordered the little prince into the palace.

He thought he went back in a hurry, and he didn't bring any gift for the child, so he simply gave Mo Yun as a gift to Xiao Jinghu.

Now it seems that what he did at that time was indeed hasty.

"Why didn't you remind me at that time?" Seeing that Tan Yuan was still lazily basking in the sun on his wrist, Ling Xiao couldn't help complaining.

At that time, Ling Xiao was still a mortal who had followed the procedures and had no memory or mana from his previous life.But Tan Yuan is different. As the emperor of heaven, it is not difficult to calculate until today.

Tan Yuan casually replied: "Everyone is destined for the law, let's calm down and follow the fate."

"You don't care if someone bullies your son?" Ling Xiao's eyes widened.

Tan Yuan said indifferently: "With you as his leader, who else in the Three Realms can bully him?"

Ling Xiao: "..."

makes sense.

While speaking, the fairy gourd has already approached the sky above the king's tent of Yiluo Kingdom.

"Why is it so hot here?" Yun Jinghu frowned deeply when he felt the scorching heat in the air, and took off the cloak on his shoulders.

He looked at the ground hundreds of feet below, and then hugged the cloak he was about to throw down in his arms.

At this time, mid-autumn had passed in the Dayong Dynasty, and the weather had gradually turned cooler. People in Kyoto, in particular, had already replaced their summer single clothes and put on cotton-padded robes.

It's just that here in Yiluo Country, not only is there no chill at all, the temperature at this moment is even comparable to that at noon in summer.Sitting on this fairy gourd, I just feel that my whole body is sweating profusely.

But after a while, even the fairy gourd became hot.

Ling Xiao also sensed something was wrong, he waved his sleeves lightly, and a chill immediately enveloped the two of them.

"Weichen lived in Yiluo country for a year, even in the summer solstice, it may not be so hot." Shen Lingjun sat in front of the fairy gourd, with a slightly confused expression.

After hearing this, Ling Xiao's eyes suddenly lit up.

Without saying a word, he took out a thick book from his arms, but the glittering fairy world words on it fell into the eyes of the other two, but there was nothing at all.

"Father, why is there no word in the book in your hand?" Yun Jinghu approached Ling Xiao, seeing him looking down at the white paper book in his hand, he asked curiously.

Ling Xiao smiled: "There are words in this book, but people in the mortal world cannot see them. Therefore, although there are words in the heavenly book, it becomes a wordless heavenly book in the eyes of people in the lower world."

Yun Jinghu nodded: "I see."

Ling Xiao's eyes flicked around on "The Record of Immortal Beasts", and sure enough, he saw a name that was shining brightly: 颙鸟.

Bird-wingers have a human face and four eyes, and if they see them, they will suffer severe drought.

"What is this stupid guy doing here? Could it be that it also has an old lady locked up here?" Ling Xiao put his hand on "The Record of Immortals and Beasts".

"Isn't it possible?" Shen Lingjun has naturally heard of the name of the bird, but he thought it was quite strange, "Queen, do you think its appearance has anything to do with the squid in the East China Sea?"

Shen Lingjun was still quite shocked when he learned that Ling Xiao had passed away, and he couldn't digest this fact for a long time.

But now, he has been able to call Ling Xiao the Holy Queen in a gracious manner.

"How is that possible?" Ling Xiao curled her lips, "I heard from the boy who looked after them that this bird and squid have been enemies for hundreds of years. They would quarrel endlessly when they met on weekdays, and sometimes even fight violently. Can they what is the relationship?"

"Then why did Mo Yun and Qing Lian take away the squid?" Yunjing Lake was completely puzzled.

Ling Xiao pressed the fairy gourd: "We'll have to ask them face to face to find out."

The fairy gourd fell from the clouds and landed on the bustling streets of Wangzhang in Yiluo Kingdom.

Among the 72 countries in the Western Regions, Yiluo Country is relatively medium in size and population.

It is just located on the transportation hub between other countries in the Western Regions and the Yong Dynasty, so although the population of the country is only 30, the caravans and other people of all kinds are bustling with each other. Even in the bitter cold winter, there is an endless stream. The caravan traveled north and south for huge profits.

Right now, there are all kinds of people on this street, and the costumes of the passers-by are also different, the only thing in common is that they all wear very little, and many men from foreign lands even show their breasts, wearing sweat towels while walking. Wipe your body.

Although there were so many pedestrians sweating profusely, none of them noticed that a huge fairy gourd fell from the sky and landed in the middle of the road.

Although they couldn't see the people in the middle of the street, they instinctively took a few steps to the side when walking, avoiding Ling Xiao and the others, but none of them noticed that their walking trajectory had changed.

"Their king's tent is in front." Shen Lingjun looked at the king's capital that had been away for more than ten years. The scenery here was a little strange, but more of it was familiar.

Flat-roofed buildings line one another, and all the windows and doorways are hung with beautifully embroidered blankets to keep out the wind and sand.

The flat roof is full of colorful clothes, and all kinds of cotton and linen gauze are fluttering in the wind, which looks gorgeous from a distance.

The streets here are all built very spacious, and from time to time, camel caravans and horse caravans cross the past unhurriedly.

It's just that although the sun above the head is not strong, the hot wind that hits the face still makes everyone feel sleepy and listless.

Whether it is a shop in a thick earthen house or a merchant in a cloth shed on the street, one or two have been oppressed by the temperature comparable to the midsummer sun, and they are drowsy.

"I guess this city isn't usually like this?" Ling Xiao turned to look at Shen Lingjun.

Shen Lingjun nodded slightly: "The temperature here is unusually hot, presumably it should be caused by the bird you mentioned, Holy Queen."

Suddenly, a dry gong sounded from not far away.

Several people followed the prestige and saw that a large group of Miaoman girls in white gauze were walking slowly along with a float decorated with countless silk flowers.

The float was extraordinarily tall, and there were more than a dozen big men with dark skin like Kunlun slaves dragging the float at the front and back.

There was a platform on the top of the float, and on the platform stood a woman in a red dress with a golden mask.

The woman was tall and tall, her skin was whiter than snow, she was wearing a red skirt, which made her more beautiful and charming, and her slender waist was outlined by a three-inch wide golden girdle.As soon as the wind blew, the underside of the fiery red skirt was lifted up, revealing the woman's slender and fair ankles without a doubt.

Even on her ankles, there were several exquisite and elegant gold anklets with bells hanging on them. Every time she moved her steps, the bells would jingle and ring.

Although the woman was wearing a golden mask, through the mask, she could still clearly see those coquettish eyes, one blue and one green, without any emotion.

The woman was holding a pipa in her arms, and she brushed the pipa lightly with her slender hands, and a series of silky sounds entered the ears with the wind, which made people feel that the hot weather seemed to be cooling down.

"What are you doing over there?" Ling Xiao saw through the real face of the woman under the golden mask at a glance, raised her eyebrows slightly unconsciously, and turned to ask Shen Lingjun.

Shen Lingjun smiled: "Oh, the Yiluo Kingdom is located in the desert, and there is drought and little rain. This is their annual rain-seeking ceremony. A young and beautiful virgin is selected as a sacrificial envoy, and they parade in a float in the city for three days. On the evening of the third day, the envoy will bathe in holy water and marry the water god as his wife, praying for good weather.”

Ling Xiao watched the floats pass by, and asked, "Even their princess will be sent to the altar as an envoy to perform this ceremony?"

"That's not true," Shen Lingjun shook his head slightly, "Although the sacrificial offering is just a ceremony, most of them choose women from innocent families in the city. After all, after such a ceremony is held, according to the rules, that woman is not allowed to marry within three years, so don't let me marry you." This ceremony will be performed by a royal woman. Why does the Holy Queen ask such a question?"

Ling Xiao stared at the direction the float was leaving: "The sacrificial woman, except for a pair of different pupils, looks exactly like Princess Qinglian."
