It looks desolate from the outside, but once you enter the city, it has a different look.
Because the city is full of flowers.
The sunset, accompanied by the sunset glow and the blooming flowers, outlines Shangguan City like a fairyland.
Jiang Wang saw this scene and murmured: "It's really unexpected."
Yao Guanhai said: "There are people taking care of the flowers in the city, but I don't seem to see anyone?"
Because it was too far away from Huncheng, Jiang Wang's perception range was limited. At least there was no one in the known range. He frowned and said: "Looking at the appearance of this city, there must be someone there. Could it be a descendant of the Wu Dynasty?"
Yao Guanhai said: "I haven't heard of any royal descendants surviving in the Wu Dynasty. However, the descendants of some military generals in the Wu Dynasty may still exist."
"Whether they are descendants of the royal families of various countries or famous civil servants and generals, if the descendants are talented and have no other ambitions, they can occupy a place in the divine capital or in various realms."
"If there is someone who still has some feelings for the Wu Dynasty but can stay in Shangguan City, he either has no ability or has some ideas and deliberately stays away from the divine capital."
Regardless of what the Sui Emperor secretly wanted to do, there are very few descendants of the former kingdoms who have the idea of restoring their country. Even if they do, they have no ability and will eventually turn into a handful of loess.
It seems that so far, the descendants of the royal families of the previous countries have not produced any capable people, and those who have shown talents at a young age have died for various reasons.
It is impossible to say that these descendants have no ideas about this, but of course they all have their own choices whether they should fight for nothing or be content with the status quo, at least to have enough food and clothing.
Some really believed in the benevolence of Emperor Sui, while others pretended to believe even if they didn't.
The strength of one or two families alone would be hard to make a splash. Jiang Wang thought, what really made the Sui Emperor fearful was the joint efforts of the descendants of the royal families of the previous countries. The combined background of each family would create a force that could not be ignored. the power of.
Not to mention that the probability of all the descendants of the royal family joining forces is very low. Even if they do, it is still unrealistic to overthrow the Sui Dynasty. Unless they have the power to kill the great people in the city of God, they can do this. The only things that mattered were the Battle of Zhushen and the Battle of Mozhang.
The only reason that made the Sui Emperor fearful was the will of the people.
Sometimes a war is more than just a battle of strength.
The reason why the emperor is the emperor is not because he has unmatched power in the world, but because the emperor controls the destiny of the day, and the people's support is the key. The weakening of the destiny of other places is still within the controllable range. Once the destiny of the gods weakens, problems will arise. became serious.
The people of the Sui Dynasty are the people of all countries. Even if there is only a slight possibility, the Sui Emperor will completely crush it. He spares no effort to show his benevolent side. He wants to stabilize the descendants of the royal families of the former countries and show it to the people. As long as the people If everyone is facing him, then there will be no big problems no matter how much trouble the descendants of the royal families of various countries make.
But it would be best if they could stop making trouble. What Emperor Sui had to do was to slowly prevent them from ever having a chance to make trouble again.
Jiang Wang had no intention of resurrecting Qi. The only thing he wanted was to avenge his father Jiang Qi.
Invincible in the world, he thought that it would be the easiest way to directly defeat the city of God.
With the kingdom of God here, this matter won't take too long.
If luck is really used to cause trouble, it will not only be quite troublesome, but also not a good thing for the people. It will give Xi Tan an opportunity to take advantage of, and it will also give opportunities to monsters, and it will easily lead to a scene of devastation. .
And no matter how much luck in Shendu is exhausted, if Jiang Wang has no strength, what's the use? If something happens, he will die immediately. m.
Once you have absolute power, there will be no need to do these things.
After walking for a while, there was still no sign of anyone in Shangguan City.
Although the city is full of flowers, which are well-kept and not growing everywhere, the houses are all in ruins and do not look like they are inhabited.
But some flowers shouldn't bloom at this time of year. Maybe the flower grower is not in the city at the moment.
When Jiang Wang was thinking this, he suddenly seemed to notice something and raised his hand to signal Yao Guanhai to stop the carriage.
Just as he was about to get out of the car to explore, the ring finger that had been thrown carelessly in the Kingdom of God moved strangely.
Jiang Wang sat down again in the carriage and took out the ring finger from the Kingdom of God.
The ring finger was given to him by the prime minister, and its owner is a very high-status person in the capital of God.
Jiang Wang once guessed that it was probably the royal family of the Sui Kingdom, and it was also possible that he was a descendant of the royal family of the previous countries, but the probability of staying in the divine capital was low.
After getting the ring for so long, there has been no news. This sudden contact made Jiang Wang curious about what the other party wanted to say.
"Mr. Jiang?"
Jiang Wang pinched his finger, and a faint green light flashed on it, and then a voice sounded directly from his mind.
The voice was very gentle, Jiang Wang was silent for a while, and then he hummed in response.
The person on the other side said quickly: "I didn't get to see Mr. Jiang in person. It's my first time talking to you in this way. I hope Mr. Jiang won't mind."
Jiang Wang replied: "Is something wrong?"
The other person was silent for a moment, then said with a smile: "I'll get straight to the point. I actually want to ask Mr. Jiang for a favor, but I wonder where Mr. Jiang is now?"
Jiang Wang didn't hide anything and said, "On the way to Longchan."
The person on the other side was surprised and said: "That's such a coincidence. The person I want to ask Mr. Jiang for help is in Longchan's territory."
Jiang Wang frowned.
Is it really a coincidence, or did the other party know that he was going to Longchan before he said this?
But he didn't tell anyone in advance that he was going to Lingchan, or he could only infer it from the direction he was going, which meant that someone was watching him along the way.
He didn't notice anything at all.
It seems that the person opposite the finger ring is quite capable.
"Is Mr. Jiang still there?"
A voice came into his mind. Jiang Wang came back to his senses and hummed.
"Mr. Jiang seems to be a taciturn person?"
Jiang Wang raised his eyebrows, then fell silent.
The other person quickly continued: "Long Chan is a bit special. When there is a righteous god in Ku Tan, there are monsters raging around. If there is no righteous god in Long Chan, there will naturally be more monsters. Although Long Chan has a sword mountain, but But they are not that keen on conquering demons, so naturally I don’t like that sword mountain.”
"There is another city in Long Chan, which can be called one of the most mysterious existences in the Great Sui Dynasty. Of course, this is for most people. Although there should be records about the city lord in the Qingxuan Department, I am not sure Look it up deliberately.”
Jiang Wang asked: "Do you want me to help find out the identity of the city lord?"
The other side said: "That's not the case, because it is too difficult to check his identity. I don't know what agreement he has reached with the Qingxuan Department. In short, it is kept secret. I would like to ask Mr. Jiang for help. Although it is with this city It's related, but it's only related to one of them. When Mr. Jiang arrives in Longchan, he only needs to wear his thumb ring and wait by the Luoshui River in the evening, and someone will show up, no matter what the evening is."
Jiang Wang said: "You want to ask me for help, but it's ambiguous. Naturally, I can refuse."
The person opposite said with a smile: "Of course Mr. Jiang will be rewarded. If Mr. Jiang still refuses, I will gladly accept it."
Jiang Wang asked: "What can you give me?"
The person on the other side said, "It depends on what Mr. Jiang needs."
Jiang Wang said: "I don't seem to need anything."
There was silence on the other side for a while.
How can anyone really not need anything?
"Mr. Jiang, you can just say it, don't worry that I can't fulfill it."
Jiang Wang asked curiously: "Are you so capable? Can you achieve anything?"
"I can't guarantee anything, but most of the time, as long as Mr. Jiang says it, I will try my best to satisfy him."
Jiang Wang thought for a while and said, "I need to live."
"..."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I'm deaf. What did you just say?"
Jiang Wang said: "Things that can help me live longer, to be precise, are best if they are effective for more than ten years. The more, the better."
The person on the other side was silent for a long time, and then asked tentatively: "What does Mr. Jiang want to do with something that can extend his life? The natural lifespan of a monk in the Snow Bathing Realm can be hundreds of years."
Jiang Wang said: "That is for other bathing snow realms. For me, there is not so much, or even very little, so I need more longevity."
The voice on the other side deliberately lowered its voice and said, "Mr. Jiang's time is running out?"
Jiang Wang said: "It can be understood that I am sick. It is a big problem that has been present since I was born."
The other side had to be silent again.
This is really unexpected.
In other words, Chen Chongjin did not specifically investigate Jiang Wang's previous situation, otherwise it would not be a secret that Jiang Wang would not live long.
Jiang Wang was actually saying this on purpose.
The person opposite the finger-wrap is most likely a descendant of the Sui royal family, and he even dares to say that he can satisfy most things. It is not easy to be able to handle such things in the capital of the gods.
He even almost suspected that the person opposite him was the Sui Emperor himself.
Jiang Wang also believed that if Emperor Sui really wanted to know, he would definitely know that he would not live long.
But after all the news about weak crown bathing snow spread, everyone who knew about it would think that Jiang Wang had solved the problem, but Jiang Wang needed to prove that the problem had not been solved.
That would make Emperor Sui lower his guard a little. A person who would not live long would not even need to do anything extra. Jiang Wang thought that Emperor Sui had not taken advantage of the death of his father Jiang Qi to uproot the Xunyang Marquis Mansion before, except for insufficient reasons. , and also because Jiang Wang, who is frail and sickly, does not pose much of a threat.
But when Jiang Wang suddenly embarked on the path of cultivation, he was even more weak. Who dares to say that Jiang Wang will not be a threat in the future?
Although it is true that Emperor Sui took the name of benevolence very seriously and even made simple things troublesome, compared with people who are threatening but who do not live long, the latter naturally seems insignificant.
Jiang Wang guessed that Emperor Sui had various concerns, but he never knew what Emperor Sui was really thinking. He just paid attention not to be caught by Emperor Sui, so he could kill him as a matter of course, but of course it was not enough.
He wanted to go to Longchan. In addition to being more closely tied to Mantang Mountain, he also wanted to know more truly who the Sui Emperor was through Tang Tang. Tong Bo's understanding was still partial, and because Jiang Qi once had a relationship with the Sui Emperor. Tang Tang, who is considered a friend, will naturally know better.
When it comes to the issue of the descendants of the royal families of the former countries, it is relatively normal for the Sui Emperor to take care of it. After all, there is nothing worth paying attention to among these people. The only trouble is that they join forces, and the Sui Emperor only needs to stabilize it.
But according to Jiang Wang's cultivation speed, no matter from any aspect, it needs to be solved as soon as possible.
But in fact, Emperor Sui seemed to have done nothing. Even though Jiang Wang had guessed many reasons, he would inevitably feel that there was a big problem in this matter.
Even if he had to wait for a reason to accuse Jiang Wang, that was the Sui Emperor. There was no reason why he couldn't create a reason? Just wait?
For example, in the case of Yu Mansion, wasn't it the unfounded accusation of colluding with the monster, and even actually arranging the monster? Why was it not used when he was a greater threat? Even if you don’t want to use the same method, if you really want to, there are many ways.
When Jiang Wang first emerged, the Sui Emperor did nothing for the time being. Jiang Wang could indeed guess the reason, but to this day, nothing has been done. The previous conjecture about the Sui Emperor is very untenable. After all, Jiang Wang Hope to be different from the other descendants of the royal families of the former kingdoms.
It would be difficult for Jiang Wanghui to understand that the word "benevolence" really bound him to such an extent.
Unless the Sui Emperor was an emperor who spoke of benevolence and was truly benevolent in his heart, the descendants of the destroyed royal families of the former kingdoms actually had nothing to do with the Sui Emperor.
Looking at the ring in his hand and thinking about the identity of the person opposite him, Jiang Wang had great doubts.
To say that the person opposite is Emperor Sui, the possibility is of course extremely low.
But there should be nothing wrong with the children of the Sui royal family, and they should also be quite prestigious.
Jiang Wang really wanted to prolong his life, but the things on the market were too low-end. The Sui royal family thought they could come up with a lot of good things. This was one of the reasons why he mentioned this matter. It depends on whether the person opposite him is serious. can satisfy.
"Even Master Zhang would find it difficult to draw a talisman that can extend life too much, but... I have some golden elixirs preserved here. They are not ordinary golden elixirs, but from the Demon King who came from the peak of the Snow Bathing Realm. They are It comes from the Battle of Mozhang and is enough to meet Mr. Jiang’s needs. I can give Mr. Jiang one first and the rest later.”
Jiang Wang raised his eyebrows. He was a demon king who originated from the peak of the Snow Bathing Realm, and had at least six hundred years of experience in the golden elixir. Although the longevity he could ultimately obtain was disproportionate, the weight of this golden elixir was indeed heavy enough. He thought about the opponent's hand. How many of them are there that you are willing to give away, and more than one?
In addition to healing injuries, the golden elixir of the great demon in the Snow Bathing Realm can only extend the life of ordinary people. Even if it is a six-hundred-year-old golden elixir, it can give monks longevity, but it is very rare, but it is definitely better than the talisman or other There are many things that increase longevity.
Although it was estimated that it would only be enough to offset the loss of the trip back and forth, it was still a big surprise.
After all, there is no golden elixir, and the loss is Jiang Wang's existing longevity. Although it is more than enough, it would be better if it could be offset.
"Why did you give me the golden elixir?"
"The ring finger has the ability to teleport tiny things. The size and weight of the golden elixir are just right."
Chen Chongjin was also straightforward. As soon as he finished speaking, the green light on his finger suddenly became stronger for a moment, and then Jiang Wang had a golden elixir in his hand.
"The specific thing I want to ask Mr. Jiang for help is to kill someone."
Some people died, but not completely...
