The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 719: A Single Stone Stirs up a Thousand Waves

At noon, there was a sudden cry of grief in the palace.

The newly promoted 10th on the Heavenly Ranking, the thief saint Ye Wuzong, who had performed brilliantly in the dragon-slaying battle and made Bo'e's face swollen like a pig, passed away in the guest house of the palace.

The queen of the spirit tribe, Xiang Simeng, who was favored by the thief saint as a direct disciple and had only been taught the thief saint's skills for a month or two, cried bitterly, "vomited three liters of blood and fainted several times."

He also beat up all the traitorous guards around, reprimanded them for not guarding the master well, and ordered them to quickly buy white banners, white clothes and other mourning items. The noise was known to the Holy Mountain in an instant, and it spread to the entire spirit tribe in an instant.

The spontaneous spread of this kind of thing was faster than the order for them to investigate the abnormalities in various places. Many tribes and villages in various places knew that the queen's master had died before they even received the order to investigate.

The spirit tribe had no feelings for the thief saint, and in fact they secretly said that he died well. Only after his death did the spirits have the legal right to control the axe. Otherwise, it had always belonged to the old man. He claimed that "Sisi, you can't control it, so the master will keep it for you first." In fact, if he didn't interfere, the spirits would find a way to control the axe.

In the eyes of the spirits, the old man had no intention of giving the axe away. He was just injured and came to seek refuge.

He sought refuge, but he didn't have any sense of refuge. He was like a father. The queen sent the best witch doctor of the spirits to treat him. Not only did he not accept it, but he also cursed "it's a mess", "what the hell", "just let me eat bugs?" He only accepted the pharmacology he could recognize, which made the witch doctor's beard tremble.

We are all old men, but you are the oldest? If you don't die, who will die? Die early so that everyone can set off firecrackers.

Now he is really dead, put in a good coffin, placed in the temple, next to him is the beloved axe that symbolizes his greatest achievement in life. The queen didn't even have lunch. She sat beside the coffin in a daze, sobbing in mourning clothes.

I have to say that this mourning dress is really beautiful...

The leaders of various tribes who came to pay homage were obviously very familiar with their own queen, but they still couldn't help but secretly glance at her. At this time, the queen lost her usual quirky and full of demonic winds, and her rare weakness and intelligence. I heard that others in the Middle Earth praised Tang Wanzhuang as the most beautiful woman in the world. Is it because of this temperament? I know... By the way, the queen has been very studious in the past few months and has become more literary...

It's a pity that no matter how beautiful she is, others can't touch her. She is the forbidden fruit of the Holy Envoy. In theory, her legal system is to rule the tribe on behalf of the ancestor god. Blaspheming her is blaspheming the gods.

But there are also people who think that the so-called Holy Envoys are fighting outside in the world, and they don't have the so-called omnipresent divine ability. Is he really a Holy Envoy? Many knowledgeable people actually know that he is not. At that time, the strange phenomenon of the spirit of all beasts when the queen ascended the throne was probably an illusion effect, not real.

Zhao Changhe can't actually represent the ancestor god, and the queen can't represent it either.

Once they can't represent it, Sisi's authority will be much lower. She is a young person without the support of her own clan, and her accumulation in the clan is far from enough.

The core forces that support her the most are two groups. One is the young people who want to get rid of the spiritual clan's small piece of land and yearn for the outside world; the other is the Xia people who were previously sheltered. Many of the former are restricted by the orders of their elders and can't make much noise under the traditional system, while the latter are even more like forgetting the pain after the scar healed, and have long forgotten how miserable they were sheltered in the past, and began to fight for power and personal gain...

So can we do something while the so-called holy envoy is not here at all...

Inciting "the divine axe is destined to be with us" is actually a way to provoke the queen's prestige, to see whether she wants the divine axe for the clan or for the old man to suppress the clan. Facts have proved that she chose to respect the old man, so many neutral people were provoked to be dissatisfied.

The old man is on the Heavenly Ranking, and no one dared to say anything, but he died.

Good death...

When many leaders went to pay homage, they secretly started some connections, and undercurrents surged.

Zhao Changhe, who had been secretly watching and watching all the changes with a cold eye, opened his eyes to the extreme, covering the movements around the entire holy mountain, and suddenly found that some of them went to the direction of the ancestral tomb where he lived in seclusion.

Zhao Changhe finally moved slightly in his heart, what is there over there? It's not just a tomb. When he was in seclusion and firing cannons, he found that he would have a higher perception there. Later, Sisi should have arranged for the strong men in the tribe to take turns to receive the inheritance of the ancestral god nearby, and there were strict defenses stationed.

In other words, apart from the holy mountain, that place may be the place with the strongest military force in the spirit tribe at present.

And... once the mind is led to the tomb, it will immediately think of this inexplicably cold climate. Is it related to the Yin corpse?

Unexpectedly, the thief saint wanted to fish for the fish of stealing the axe, but caught other clues... Zhao Changhe finally looked at Sisi, and after consideration, he still unfolded his body and went to the tomb mountain first.

That place is likely to be the highlight.

…………

Dali at this time.

After observing the movements of Pan Wan Dao Qing Feng and other forces, Yue Hongling did not see any problems, and did not feel that there was anything special about the whole Dali.

But she instinctively felt that something was wrong. Her clear sword heart told her that there was an extremely dangerous evil hidden here. So much so that her heart was always tense, which was a rare warning in her many years of wandering alone in the world.

So she did not leave to find Zhao Changhe, but continued to patrol the surroundings, searching for the root cause of the feeling.

When I found nothing, I was squatting in a shop outside Baimiao eating rice noodles, when suddenly a horse came galloping towards me, and there seemed to be an urgent report. Yue Hongling quickly threw away the rice noodles and followed this person into Bai Miao Village.

The leader of the Bai Miao clan, Dao Qingfeng, was also eating. The visitor rushed in and smiled from afar: "Are you still in the mood to eat?"

Dao Qingfeng was stunned, glanced around, waved away his subordinates, and lowered his voice: "What are you doing, seeing me so openly?"

"What does that have to do with it?" The visitor smiled and said: "The Thief Saint Ye has no trace and died in the secret realm of the Spirit Clan half an hour ago. This matter has gone viral now. I came here to inform you."

Dao Qingfeng was stunned and didn't understand the meaning here for a moment: "Is it of any significance whether he dies or not? He is a wounded person in the first place. Even if it is a bit of a deterrent, he is not the only one that everyone is worried about."

"What we are worried about is not him, but his ability to control the Immortal God Ax. Divine Thunder Huanghuang has a great restraint on what we are planning. Once he dies and no one controls the ax, the opportunity will come."

"Why is there no one controlling the axe? Xiang Simeng can do it himself."

"Because there will be people who are unwilling to let her continue to control the axe, this moment must be a time of internal turmoil among the Eldar clan. This is a perfect time. They are in turmoil internally, and we are cooperating externally...Those who seek personal gain will not You know, just their selfish desires will cause the Miao territory to change masters in one day, and the entire Spirit Clan will become our slaves."

Dao Qingfeng's expression finally changed slightly: "Are you sure that the spirit clan will fight and fight within the spirit clan instead of controlling the divine ax immediately?"

"Confirmed." The visitor said hurriedly: "The opportunity only lasts for a few hours. If Xiang Simeng is strong enough to suppress all opposition and subdue the divine ax as quickly as possible, we will be too late. At this moment, it is Now!"

Dao Qingfeng hesitated and said: "Is it a little sudden..."

"It happens suddenly to everyone. The death of Master Xiang Simeng was also sudden. We have been planning for so long, so we are not acting in a hurry. Xiang Simeng suddenly encounters internal and external changes, which is the real rush." ​​The visitor said: "I know you doubt whether it will happen. There will be traps, but the body is really lying in the coffin. In fact, even if there are some traps, we must launch them sooner or later. We cannot wait forever. When is the time? "

Dao Qingfeng finally stood up and took a few steps: "That's now!"

The elites of the Bai Miao tribe suddenly activated, and what they rushed to was not in the direction of Taoyuan Town, but... the tomb in the west of Dali, which was the tomb of the Black Miao King who was killed by Xia Longyuan in his early years.

Since the defeat of Lei Zhentang, Heimiao has declined greatly and has taken refuge with other powerful clans. The most important of them was conquered and absorbed by the feudal enemy Bai Miao. In the past few months, the tomb of King Black Miao has been gradually excavated by Dao Qingfeng. Many treasures have been dug out and sold for money, but the body is still there.

No one knows why Dao Qingfeng didn't destroy the body of the Black Miao King he hated so much, but now Yue Hongling seems to know.
