There is Zhantian Peak at the northern foot of Kuimen, which is the first of the Three Gorges peaks. Standing on the top of the peak overlooking the Yangtze River, you can have a panoramic view of the mountains, rivers and mountains, which shows the majestic image of the waves.
In the past, when the Kuimen Guards were stationed, the command and envoys department was located at Zhantian Peak. After many years of operation, it has already formed a King Kong Fortress.
There is a Qiyun Tower on the top of Zhantian Peak. The tower is one hundred and eight feet high, like a giant steel cone thrust into the sky and the sea of clouds.
This towering Qiyun Tower cost a lot of money when it was originally built. The steel frame and iron beams alone cost more than a million kilograms, and countless human, material and financial resources were invested.
The person who built the Qiyun Pagoda was none other than the former commander of the Kui Gate Guards, who brought great harm to the country and was a corrupt official.
In the first year of Jingtai's victory in the war against Yuan Dynasty and defending the country, the government and the public were rejoicing. Ning Guofu took the opportunity to petition the court and requested the construction of Qiyun Pagoda, which he called to protect the country Zuo and pray to heaven for the new emperor.
At that time, the war was just about to end, and everything was in ruins waiting to be renovated. Such actions that wasted people and cost money were really inappropriate.
Emperor Jingtai read the seal and originally planned to criticize and refute it, but he didn't expect that Ning Guofusu had deep roots and had direct access to the cabinet ministers. After several debates and arguments, the court meeting was disturbed.
Emperor Jingtai came to the throne less than a year ago. In addition, because of the victory of the war, there were frequent criticisms in the DPRK. In order to avoid intensifying the disputes and even causing instability in the DPRK, he finally settled the matter and issued an edict to allow Ning Guofu to build the Qiyun Pagoda.
Ning Guofu was satisfied with his ambition and immediately recruited the people to start work. The people dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out. They could only knock out their teeth and swallow blood.
In fact, it was a lie to protect the country, but it was true to enrich his own pockets. Ning Guofu had been corrupt for many years, and he just turned black into white by building Qiyun Pagoda, and justifiably pocketed the national public funds.
Since the drunkard was not interested in drinking, the Qiyun Tower was constantly being repaired. The original height of the tower was sixty-six feet, but it was increased to one hundred and eighty feet. Every foot of the tower was the blood and sweat of the people. .
Until Ning Guofu fell into the French Open, Qiyun Tower was not completed, only a steel frame was erected.
Later, the imperial court dismissed the guards of Kui Gate, and Fang Lanling, the "Fu Que Prince", took charge of Kui Gate. He was quite troubled by this huge tower. After all, demolishing it would cost a lot of money, so he could only keep it as it was until the time came.
The terrain gradually becomes gentle going down Zhantian Peak, and there is a large school ground halfway up the mountain, which was originally used for training by the garrison of the garrison.
Fang Lanling renovated the campus, erasing the chilling atmosphere, and named it Qionghua Terrace. It is now used exclusively for entertaining guests and can accommodate tens of thousands of people present at the same time.
Today is the day when the Huanguang Sea Market reopens. As the morning sun has just risen, we can see that the Qionghua stage is crowded with people. Guests from all over the world come in droves and take their seats according to the invitations.
With its back to Zhan Tianfeng and one side high, there is a Dharma platform, with seven seats placed neatly on the top of the Dharma platform, giving it a majestic look at first glance.
Amidst the bustle of people, it was already the right time, and there was only half an hour left before the grand opening.
Mu Yun and others arrived late, but fortunately the venue was in good order and they quickly found their seats.
Looking at the people next to them, they were no strangers. They were Zhu Fengyin and Shang Hongxiu, as well as Sikong Jian and Bai Ling.
Although Taixiangxuan is next door to Yunleixuan, both sides have their own opportunities, but there is a lack of friendship. Nowadays, it is inevitable to greet each other when they meet.
Shang Hongxiu is still dressed as a man, but her expression is quite soft and graceful, which is very different from before. It seems that she will be depended on for life, and she naturally shows the delicate look of a woman.
Mu Yun felt happy when he saw this, but when he thought about Liang Yubing's infatuated love, he felt sad for her. He only hoped that she would get over her knot as soon as possible and find another good match in the future.
Zhu Fengyin didn't know what was going on and saw Mu Yun's expression was different. He was surprised and whispered: "What's wrong with Brother Mu? Is there something unspeakable?"
Mu Yun thought to himself that you guessed it right, but he couldn't tell the truth, so he could only say calmly: "Brother Zhu is too worried. I don't have anything to hide. You can stay with Miss Shenxiang and don't worry about me."
Zhu Feng was chanting quietly, but Shang Hongxiu had already taken over the conversation and said with a teasing tone: "Brother Mu, where does this sourness come from? If you are annoyed that I have taken over Brother Zhu, you can compete openly and honestly~"
When Zhu Fengyin heard this, he secretly raised his forehead. Mu Yun was also dumbfounded. He cupped his hands helplessly and said, "I don't dare, I don't have that kind of habit. Miss Shenxiang, you can rest assured. Brother Zhu can only be yours."
Shang Hongxiu pursed her lips and smiled, then asked: "Why didn't Miss Fang come? Is she feeling unwell?"
Mu Yun shook his head and said: "Miss Fang has made a good friend, and we should come together later. Her good friend is amazing. He already won the first place in this sea market event yesterday."
Shang Hongxiu was startled when he heard this, and said with interest: "Oh? Brother Mu refers to the Ten Jue in Haishi? I would like to hear the details."
Before Mu Yun could answer, Xiao Lei chuckled and said, "For me, this story is definitely more fascinating than Da Mu Tou. Fortune teller, sit tight and listen to me~"
Shang Hongxiu smiled at this, and Xiaolei briefly told what happened yesterday. His eloquence was excellent and unique. Not only Shang Hongxiu and Zhufengyin, but also Sikongjian and Bailing were attracted. Very focused.
Sikong Jian and Bai Ling were both a little surprised to learn that Chen Yaqi finally won the championship. Sikong Jian muttered: "If we choose to deal with Ye Xingge's allies, Wudang Sect and Jiangnan Sword Alliance are more suitable, but in the end it turned out to be the little boy from Feilongmen. The girl won, this... is really incomprehensible."
Bai Ling also frowned and said, "Are we overthinking it? Fang Lanling is actually not that utilitarian and just wants to find the rightful owner for the treasure?"
The two looked at each other, each feeling confused. Wei Tingshang coughed upon seeing this and said: "Perhaps the simplest thing is the truth. Miss Chen really deserves the title."
Sikong Jian sighed, slowly shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Fang Lanling has spent a lot of time to reopen the Huanguanghai Market to win people's hearts. Everyone with a discerning eye knows that he has ambitions to reach the top. Kill Ye Xingge. There is no room for any mistakes in such peerless achievements, so how can it really be determined by dancing skills?"
Bai Ling nodded and agreed: "Yes, Fang Lanling must have a plan, but it is still unclear at the moment. Miss Chen may not be lucky to have received a hot potato. Whether she can escape unscathed in the future is still undecided."
Seeing the solemn expressions of Sikong Jian and Bai Ling, Wei Tingshang could not say anything else, but Qu Jingjing hesitated and said: "I heard that Mr. Fang takes it as his own duty to maintain fairness and justice in the martial arts world. He has always dealt with things fairly and never favored favoritism. Senior just now." He says he has ambitions to reach the top, but does he also want to be king and dominate?"
Sikong Jian smiled bitterly and said: "It may not be time to become king and hegemony, but it may not be impossible to enter the palace. As the saying goes, times make heroes. Ye Xingge's return to the world is exactly the time he has not seen for a long time."
Bai Ling looked at the seven seats on the altar and said meaningfully: "When the Justice League was at its peak, there were seven leaders who were in charge, but two of them were aloof and went away on their own. Now things have changed. It's easy, but the scenes are the same, which makes people think a lot."
This unfinished building is thirty meters taller than the Eiffel Tower~_~
