Chapter 241 Lian Po is old, can he still eat?
In a certain world, the East China Sea.
In the depths of the sea, at the eye of the sea, is the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea.
The news that Ao Que, the third prince of the East China Sea, had entered the space rift was quickly reported to the Dragon Palace by nearby fish monsters and reached the ears of Prime Minister Turtle.
As usual, Prime Minister Turtle reported to the Dragon King.
“That rebellious son has probably gone off to play in some small world again. Don’t worry about him.” The old Dragon King didn’t care. Compared to the long lifespan of the dragon clan, a few days was just a blink of an eye.
I guess only if Ao Que disappears for a year or two, will the Dragon King pay some attention.
Now,
Let him go.
"Your Majesty, that space crack has appeared for nearly ten years. None of the monsters who entered it have ever returned. This is a bit unusual." Prime Minister Turtle was still very careful.
"Yeah ?"
The old Dragon King then became interested, "Then let's send the patrolling sea yaksha to check it out."
The Sea Patrol Yaksha is a special branch of the sea clan. Although its strength is not that strong, it has a natural magical power - the water escape technique, which allows it to escape into water and transform itself into water.
A very good spy.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Prime Minister Turtle raised his mustache and finally felt relieved.
…
Three days later, mysterious area A.
The patrolling sea yaksha passed through the space crack, like a ball of transparent water, and subconsciously sniffed the air, and immediately caught the scent left by the Third Prince in the air.
Certain in my heart.
Since Qin Mo was in seclusion practicing the Nine Heavens Mysterious Tower, most of the other students were also in seclusion meditating in order to digest their insights from the previous lectures and consolidate their cultivation.
Therefore, no one noticed the arrival of the Patrolling Sea Yaksha, and it soon disappeared into the dense forests of Wuyi Mountain.
…
One month later, Taishang Taoist Temple.
In the quiet room, Qin Mo slowly opened his eyes, and a purple thunder mark flashed by.
A thought came to my mind.
He summoned out the evolved Jiutian Xuansha Tower, which was hanging in front of him.
There are three major changes in this evolution.
First, the material.
The entire tower is made of glass and jade, and looks crystal clear and flawless, without a trace of impurities, and looks natural inside and out.
It looks brittle on the surface, but is actually very strong.
Even a sword as powerful as Zixiao could only leave a white mark on the body of Jiutian Xuansha Tower.
Second, spiritual nature.
That’s right, with the help of the Xuanhuang Qi, the Jiutian Xuansha Tower finally developed a trace of spirituality.
It is worthy of being a fortune from heaven and earth.
Although it is still just a prototype, it undoubtedly announces that the Jiu Tian Xuan Sha Pagoda has already stepped half a foot into the ranks of magic weapons and can be called a semi-magic weapon.
at last,
The mysterious yellow energy replaced the previous colorful light. After it hung down, it hung above the head and could block the attacks of cultivators below the Mahayana stage.
First, you will be invincible.
Moreover, the presence of Xuanhuang Qi can offset some of the causes and consequences of murder.
Very domineering.
Qin Mo was already very satisfied.
It is estimated that with one more injection of Xuan Huang Qi, the Jiu Tian Xuan Sha Tower can be almost developed to the first level of a magical weapon, which is something that can only be encountered by chance.
The next time Qin Mo preaches, there is no chance that such strange phenomena of heaven and earth will occur again.
After coming out of seclusion, Qin Mo did not stay in the Taishang Taoist Temple, but entered "Honghuang". Calculating the time, Jia Xu should also return to the royal city from Shu.
We can't delay any longer.
…
really,
When Qin Mo appeared in the palace again, Jia Xu had been back for a week.
Since Qin Mo was not present and he did not obtain the corresponding authorization from the credential, Jia Xu only assembled the diplomatic envoys and had not yet left the royal city.
Qin Mo didn't waste any words.
Everything was done in the morning, and Lu Xueqi was summoned alone in the afternoon.
"Take this."
Qin Mo handed the Nine Heavens Mysterious Tower to Lu Xueqi and temporarily released the core of the magic weapon.
so,
Lu Xueqi can temporarily control this magic weapon and exert at least 90% of its power.
"Master, isn't this your life-saving magic weapon?" Lu Xueqi looked puzzled.
"If you ever encounter an enemy you can't handle, summon this treasure and hang it above your head. As long as he is not a master in the Mahayana stage, the Jiutian Xuansha Pagoda can protect you and Chan'er." Qin Mo said.
A mother worries when her son is away from home...
“Ah~~~”
Lu Xueqi was full of surprise. She didn't expect that Jiu Tian Xuan Sha Ta was so powerful. She couldn't help but feel a little admiration for her master.
Really amazing!
Lu Xueqi carefully took over the Nine Heavens Mysterious Tower. She was not worried about her own safety, but she was worried that if any emergency happened, she would not be able to protect her junior sister in time.
Now there is no problem.
"Also, I'll give you the yellow bird as a mount."
With the black dragon, a third-grade monster, Qin Mo didn't think much of the yellow bird that had just broken through to the fifth grade. Thinking that Lu Xueqi didn't have a mount yet, he simply gave it to his disciple.
Diao Chan has a strange beast, Zou Wu.
When Yan Chixia rushed to Shu to take up his post, he had already ridden the White Dragon Horse away...
"Thank you, Master!"
Lu Xueqi felt warm in her heart. Her master really cared for her.
…
October 5, 227 BC.
In the morning, Qin Mo personally saw off the delegation outside the city.
Jia Xu's mission this time was not an easy one. In addition to implementing the established strategy of vertical and horizontal alliance and trying his best to promote the five countries' attack on Qin, he also shouldered the important task of investigating the situation in various countries.
to this end,
Qin Mo gave Jia Xu a whole winter.
In order to allow Jia Xu to lobby princes and nobles of various countries, Qin Mo generously gave half of the Yue Kingdom's newly established treasury to the diplomatic delegation for them to "squander" at will.
It was not only a diplomatic mission, but also an opportunity to publicize the strength of the Kingdom of Yue and gain fame.
Add a little presence.
Don’t let the Shandong countries treat Yue State as a nobody anymore.
…
After seeing off the envoys, Qin Mo did not return to the royal city. Instead, he summoned the Zixiao Sword, and became one with the sword, turning into light and disappearing. Looking at the direction, he was actually in the old land of the State of Zhao far to the north.
Qin Mo went to invite the general.
The State of Yue now had strong soldiers and horses and abundant food and grass. After the battle in Shu, the training of the South Yue army had gradually caught up.
More and more like a regular army.
and,
Compared with the armies of other vassal states, the individual quality of the South Vietnamese army is even better.
The only drawback is that the army lacks an outstanding commander who can command thousands of troops. Prime Minister Jia Xu is, after all, a strategist, and his command in battle is slightly lacking.
This is also why,
This is the reason why Qin Mo desired Bai Qi so much before.
The State of Yue wanted to facilitate the Five Kingdoms' attack on Qin and take the opportunity to advance into the Hanzhong area. It would inevitably have to confront the Qin army head-on and would most likely encounter the famous general of the time - Wang Jian.
Who in the South Vietnamese army can play against him?
Not found!
In the destroyed Zhao State, there were two famous generals from the Warring States Period who had retired. One was the veteran general Lian Po who had retired long ago, and the other was the famous general Li Mu who had just retired not long ago.
They can all rival Wang Jian.
Historically,
Although Wang Jian wiped out the six kingdoms, he mainly did so by taking advantage of the situation and holding several big dragon BUFFs.
Compared with the tough battles fought by Bai Qi, the Marquis of Wu'an, it is actually somewhat inferior. Even Li Mu was a famous general of the time who was constantly honed in adversity.
…
Two days later, Chu State.
At the foot of Didang Mountain on the outskirts of Shouchun, there is a small wooden courtyard with some vegetables planted in the courtyard. Outside the courtyard, several acres of wasteland have been reclaimed and crisscrossed with paths.
It is late autumn.
Everything was dead and withered, the fields were overgrown with weeds, and birds were flying by.
Who would have thought that in such a place, there lived a once famous general of the State of Zhao - Lian Po, who was already over a hundred years old.
In 283 BC, Lian Po led his troops to attack the State of Qi, won a great victory, captured Yangjin, and was named Shangqing.
He was brave and courageous, and made many military achievements, making him famous among the princes.
In the early stage of the Battle of Changping, Lian Po adopted a defensive strategy and successfully resisted the attack of the Qin army. He was later replaced by Zhao Kuo, resulting in a disastrous defeat in the Battle of Changping.
Nine years later, Lian Po led his troops to repel the invasion of Yan State, beheaded Yan army commander Li Fu, marched to besiege Yan capital for three months, forced the other side to cede five cities in exchange for peace, and was appointed as Prime Minister and named Lord Xinping.
After King Zhao Daoxiang ascended the throne,
Lian Po was depressed and frustrated, so he fled to Daliang of Wei State and later went to Chu State, but he was still not valued.
Frustrated and frustrated.
In the end, he chose to live in seclusion in the suburbs of Shouchun.
When Qin Mo appeared in the yard, it was around ten o'clock in the morning. The sun was shining brightly, illuminating the entire yard with warmth and leaving mottled shadows of trees in the corners.
The old Lian Po, with his head full of white hair and wearing a coarse linen robe, was leaning against the wall with a stick in his hand.
His eyes were slightly closed, feeling drowsy.
Basking in the sun.
Who would have thought that this old man in front of him, who looked like he would be buried at any time, would be one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period who once dominated the battlefield.
"who?"
Perhaps hearing the footsteps, old Lian Po suddenly opened his eyes. There was no more turbidity in his eyes, they became extremely sharp, and the gesture of holding the stick quietly changed into that of holding a sword.
Very sharp and aggressive.
"King Qin Mo of Yue, nice to meet you, General Lian Po." Qin Mo bowed.
"King of Yue?" Lian Po frowned. "Where did this country boy come from? How dare you come and tease me? The Kingdom of Yue was destroyed a hundred years ago. How can there be a King of Yue?"
"But the old general is ignorant."
Qin Mo looked confident as he gave a brief introduction to the history of the rise of the Yue Kingdom.
The more Lian Po listened, the more surprised he became.
He could never have imagined that after only a dozen years of seclusion, earth-shaking changes had taken place in the outside world. Han and Zhao were successively destroyed by Qin, and Yue took advantage of the situation to rise and dealt a severe blow to Qin.
What a change!
Instinctively,
Lian Po could tell that Qin Mo was not lying.
"Then why did the King of Yue come here?" A slight wave of emotion flashed through Lian Po's heart.
Qin Mo: "Originally, I wanted to invite the old general to come out of retirement, appoint him as the general of Yue State, and lead the army to attack Hanzhong and destroy Qin State. However, seeing the old general's appearance..."
Like most generals, Lian Po also chose the path of physical training, but his aptitude was average, and at his peak he was only a four-star general.
As one grows older, his cultivation becomes solidified and his Qi and blood decline rapidly.
Qin Mo was really worried about handing over a million troops to such an old man. If he suddenly died during the march, it would be a huge joke.
"What kind of look?"
Old Lian Po suddenly became unhappy. He stood up, his back still straight, threw away the wooden stick in his hand, his eyes were bright, and a familiar smell of murderous intent rose from his body.
Like a raging storm.
