Then, An Ning walked to a shelf and turned a vase placed on it. The shelf began to rotate slowly, and a hidden grid appeared behind it.
An Ning walked in and the shelf returned to its original position. The secret grid leads directly to the ground, several hundred feet deep.
An Ning went all the way to the underground. Below were dozens of cages, all of which were filled with young and strong men.
There are ten people in each cage, and all of them are quite handsome. These people are ordinary people without any cultivation, ranging in age from twenty to forty years old.
At this time, most of these people were sleeping against the wall in the cage, and some were in a daze with their eyes open.
When An Ning appeared below, the eyes of those men who were in a daze suddenly became bright. They immediately ran to the cage, grabbed the iron bars of the cage, and stared at An Ning, with undisguised greed and excitement in their eyes.
In the past, peace only came at night, but today it came during the day. It seemed that they could have a good meal again.
An Ning stood outside the cage, her eyes swept over a dozen cages, and whispered: "In the future, I don't need you to accompany me anymore!" After saying that, she raised her palm and moved it gently in front of her.
In just an instant, hundreds of handsome and strong men in dozens of cages were turned into powder silently, without even a scream being made.
Some people just sleep forever and never wake up. Some people, with excitement in their eyes, turned into dust.
After finishing this trivial matter, An Ning turned around and walked out of the underground. After returning to the boudoir, she dressed up in the mirror, smiled brightly, opened the door and walked out.
Zhi Bohou, along with Man Shengrong and Liu Xuan, had arrived at Yubei City. Si Jinhang, the lord of Yubei City, is now 13,000 years old. He became an emperor when he was 8,000 years old. He was arranged to leave Nanshi Mountain when he was 10,000 years old and came into contact with the senior officials of the Xiao Dynasty. Within a few years, he became the emperor. He became the lord of Yubei City.
Si Jinhang is the one who has been around for the shortest time among the three city lords, but he has been around for three thousand years. Si Jinhang was dressed in a green robe and had a large black mole on his nose. His appearance was not ugly, but he was not handsome either.
Especially the black mole can leave a deep impression on anyone who sees him. Si Jinhang is also a very talented person. In the three thousand years since he was the city lord of Yubei City, he has managed Yubei City in an orderly manner and developed this city from the second to last to the third from the top, which is quite impressive. What a great achievement.
At this time, Si Jinhang was looking at the records about the Yan Dynasty and would read them carefully.
Just like now, he is reading this history book, which contains detailed records of the outrageous things that the Yan Dynasty did during its rule in Nanzhou, and the shameful things they did behind the scenes, etc.
"Bullshit!" Si Jinhang cursed angrily and threw the history book in his hand on the desk in front of him.
Si Jinhang grew up in Nanshi Mountain, and his ancestors were the officials of the Yan Dynasty. The stories about the Yan Dynasty passed down from his family are not what is written in this bullshit history book.
Although he knew that history is often written by the victors, and that this history book was purely fabricated and distorted by the Xiao Dynasty in order to discredit the Yan Dynasty and promote itself, he was still a little aggrieved. .
Si Jinhang is a man with a hot temper and a resolute attitude. If it weren't for the fear of exposing his identity, he might have taken this history book and went to the historian of the dynasty to discuss it.
"Who?" Si Jinhang suddenly stood up and looked at a space not far away in the hall and shouted softly.
"Don't be nervous, City Master Si!" As the voice came, the space split open, and three people walked out of it, none other than Zhi Bohou and the others.
Si Jinhang was stunned for only a moment before he recognized the person. He immediately clasped his fists and said, "Master Zhi, why are you here?" In the past three thousand years, Nanshishan has never taken the initiative to look for him, and people like them are not allowed to come out. Feel free to return to Nanshishan or contact Nanshishan, just in case an accident happens and your whereabouts are exposed.
"What? You don't welcome me?" Zhibo cupped his fists and asked with a smile.
"Master Zhi was joking, I was looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally you are here!" Si Jinhang also had a smile on his face.
Immediately, he walked quickly to the door of the hall, looked around outside, and when he saw that no one was there, he closed the door of the hall and placed a ban.
"Master Zhi, as well as Brother Liu and this brother, please take a seat!" Si Jinhang said to the three of them. Although Liu Xuan was three thousand years younger than Si Jinhang, when Si Jinhang left Nanshi Mountain, Liu Xuan had already achieved enlightenment and became emperor, and was already recognized as the most powerful person in the Yan Dynasty at that time.
As for the young man Manzengyi, Si Jinhang didn't know him. This was the first time they met. The three of them were not polite, and all found a seat and sat down.
Si Jinhang quickly poured a cup of tea for each of the three people and brought it to them.
"City Master Si, this is Man Shengrong, a descendant of the Man family, and now the most powerful person in Nanshi Mountain!" Zhi Bohou spoke and introduced to Si Jinhang.
"Sure enough, a hero comes from a young age. He is worthy of being a descendant of Man Lao Sword Emperor. He has actually surpassed Brother Liu. I admire you!" Si Jinhang said in surprise.
"City Lord Si is overly praised!" Man Shengrong replied lightly.
"You should stop calling me City Lord. I am acting as City Lord just to deceive others!" Si Jinhang said with a smile.
Zhi Bohou nodded and said: "Brother Si, I am here to inform you and let you be prepared. It won't be long before we take action!"
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time, and I have been preparing every moment. As long as the wise master and His Highness give the order, I can set off for the imperial city immediately!" Si Jinhang said with excitement.
"It's rare. I, the great Yan man, should treat it like this! However, this time Brother Si does not need to charge into the battle. You only need to be responsible for guarding this city. When the imperial city asks for help, just stand still!" Zhi Bohou said to Si Jinhang Thumbs up.
These words of praise for Si Jinhang were words from the bottom of his heart, and they were not just a Machiavellian strategy like those used to the two of them before.
Si Jinhang deserves this compliment for being able to always keep his mind on the revival of the Yan Dynasty. Unlike Yu Feng and An Youyu, one only wants to live in the world in a comfortable place, and the other wants to spend all his efforts to be the master of the world.
"Master Zhi is overrated. All of us, great Yan'erlangs, should always take the rejuvenation of our family and country as our own responsibility. If we dare to forget it at all, we are betraying our ancestors and betraying our country!" Si Jinhang said.
Zhi Bohou nodded, his eyes full of appreciation and relief. If the tens of thousands of people in Nanshishan City had thoughts like Si Jinhang's, why did the Yan Dynasty wait until now and still not be restored?
Most people, like Yu Feng, only think about living their own stable lives and have completely forgotten the instructions of their ancestors.
"Wise Master, there is one person we have to take seriously, the current King Wei and his consort Liu Wei!" Si Jinhang said with a serious expression.
"I know this person, but the information I got is just a rumor, I don't know whether it is true or not!" Zhi Bohou nodded.
"The news cannot be false. Then Liu Wei forced the Xiao family to directly hand over the former emperor Xiao Kuo. If he really didn't have that ability, how could Xiao Nantian swallow his anger and suffer such a big loss?" Si Jinhang frowned and his tone was a little low.
"It's best if we don't alert this person. We have already captured the imperial city and captured the three Xiao Fengtian brothers alive. At that time, we can force him to surrender or everyone can attack him together!" Zhi Bohou took a sip. After tea, his eyes were a little solemn.
"Why go to all the trouble and use such despicable means? Then if Liu Wei dares to come then, leave it to me! If I really lose, then for the sake of the Yan Dynasty, I, Man Shengrong, will do something shameless Let's kill him together with Liu Xuan! If that doesn't work, then I, Man Shengrong, can drag him to death together!" Man Shengrong looked at Zhi Bohou and said.
"Liu Wei will definitely have to be stopped by you and Liu Xuan when the time comes, but if this happens, we will be without your two strongest people. If we just start fighting with the Imperial City, Liu Wei will come. Our chances of winning will become much smaller!" Zhi Bohou said after thinking for a while.
"Why don't you let me meet this person for a while before the fight starts? Even if I can't beat him, let me find out whether he is really like a god as rumored! Even if he can't beat me, he can't even hope to keep me!" Man Shengrong spoke with strong confidence.
"This is absolutely not possible. If a strong man like you suddenly appears, all forces will definitely investigate. We have already been exposed before we even have a confrontation with the Xiao family!" Zhibo Houyi denied it righteously.
"It won't work this way, that won't work either, just go back and lie down!" Man Shengrong said angrily.
"Can you change your short temper? We'll discuss this with His Highness after we get back!" Zhi Bohou glared at Man Shengrong and said.
"It can't be changed, it's just this temper!" Man Shengrong replied angrily. Next, Zhi Bohou and Si Jinhang chatted in detail for about half a quarter of an hour.
Man Shengrong and Liu Xuan, on the other hand, just listened on the sidelines and basically did not interrupt. Unless Si Jinhang asked them, they would only answer a question.
When the three of them left the City Lord's Mansion, the sky had completely darkened. The three of them took advantage of the darkness and rushed directly to the imperial city.
The location of Yubei City in Nanzhou is also on the edge of the Imperial City. The three of them flew for half an hour before arriving outside the Imperial City.
In order not to attract the attention of interested people, after the three of them agreed on a meeting place in the city, they entered the city separately, about a quarter of an hour apart.
Zhibo entered the city first, found a restaurant in the city, and ordered a plate of beef, a plate of peanuts, and a pot of good wine, and drank the wine slowly by himself.
The second person to enter the city was Man Shengrong. After he entered the city, he walked around casually near the agreed place.
