Bulwark of Light

Chapter 940 A Knife Against Qing Yu (First update! Ask for a monthly ticket!)

The Snow Forbidden City is very large, and it often takes a week for tourists from the Jiangbei region to have fun.

Snow Forbidden City is also very small.

Gu Xiaoman had been looking forward to it for six years, and it only took seven days to visit every corner of this ancient city.

During these seven days, Xiaoman had a very happy time.

Gu Shen took her to see many places that were not found in Central Continent. The Five Families have maintained Nagano very well, and most of the places of interest and historical sites are well preserved...

Chu Ling held an umbrella, and the three of them walked together, with a very warm painting style.

It's just a bit like... a family of three.

But really fun.

Xiaoman has already identified Chu Ling's "sister-in-law status", and she takes sister Chu one by one, and they are inseparable on weekdays.

Chu Ling also liked this helpless little girl who had a miserable life experience.

As for the "lord of wine"... this identity has long been forgotten in these seven days.

On both sides of the Ninghe River that runs through the Snow Forbidden City, there are deliberately preserved ancient buildings and old alleys. Here, there are "shop assistants" who deliberately dress up as old-fashioned vendors, yelling and holding activities under the electronic banners of drones hanging in the air to attract traffic.

Many people were taking pictures and it was very lively.

Gu Shen and the others walked into a popular restaurant in Ninghe. This restaurant retains the ancient appearance of a classical teahouse hundreds of years ago. It has four floors. The result is blue bricks and green tiles, antique.

The gimmick of this restaurant is "Ancient Civilizations".

On the top floor of the restaurant, there are horizontal flags flying.

"I don't know how Afu will feel when he sees this scene..."

Gu Xiaoman sat by the window, looked at the bustling crowd below, couldn't help laughing and said: "The ancient civilization was much more advanced than ours now."

Gu Shen also smiled: "I heard that Nagano City was established as early as 600 years ago. Perhaps many years ago, there really existed a 'pre-ancient civilization' here that was completely different from Afu and the others."

"Too."

Gu Xiaoman said with emotion: "The world is so big, there are so many wonders."

The more you understand the whole picture of this world, the more you realize your own insignificance.

The "starships" produced by Afu in that era were certainly shocking.

But beyond the sea of ​​ice, how do you know that there is no larger and more powerful civilization?
"correct."

After a few simple chats, Gu Xiaoman pretended to be casual and said: "I'm done visiting Snow Forbidden City, and I'm going back."

"go back?"

Before Gu Shen could speak, Chu Ling asked, "Aren't you going to take a look at Dadu?"

After the baby god was brought out from Sangzhou Grotto, it has been fostered in Dadu Huazhi.

Every time she wakes up and goes south to the ice sea, Chu Ling will pass by Dadu, and she will take a look...

She is also going to take Gu Xiaoman to see the baby from back then.

"No..."

Xiaoman shook his head and said with a smile: "I know what happened outside these few days."

The negotiations on Yuanting Island have come to an end.

Over the past few days, there have been shadows passing over Nagano from time to time, and ordinary people may not be able to see them clearly, but Gu Xiaoman's mental power is strong enough, she knows that the combined fleet of Central City and Nagano is returning...

The deep water network has exploded.

Because there has been no news of the cloud ship fleet of the City of Light and the Tower of Source, and some people have discovered that the Church of the Storm is preparing to block the coastline.

The two envoys of the Tower of Origin disappeared mysteriously.

The Red Dragon and Suzaku have already lodged a serious protest, and the Central Continent Council has officially put pressure on the Holy City. Bian prepares to resist, and even sends out saints.

Then the upper city will also send titles.

In the face of absolute strength, even if Nanzhou joined the alliance between Nagano and Central City, he could only bow his head and compromise.

Gu Xiaoman is very clear that the key point of this "contradictory dispute" is not the so-called "God Envoy"...

Red Dragon and Suzaku are just applying pressure by "disappearing envoys".

The person the tower of origin really wants to see is itself.

As long as I don't show up.

Then things will intensify, and the coastal blockade of Yuanting Island will attract the two major alliances to continue to raise their bets. If it really reaches the extreme situation where there is no way around, it will be too late for him to reappear.

"The news that you are still alive... the red dragon should already know?"

Gu Xiaoman looked at Gu Shen with a smile.

"..."

Gu Shen's silence is the answer.

Looking at this clever little girl, he couldn't help but sigh softly: "You guessed it?"

"This needs to be guessed?"

Gu Xiaoman sneered, and leaned his elbows to look at the scenery of Ninghe River outside the window: "I am also the future 'Lord of Wine', Yuanzhi Tower is desperately trying to find out some rumors about me on Yuanting Island, and the Church of Storms is Desperately resisting, seeing that the two groups of people are about to fight, even if you pretend to be calm on the surface, it is impossible to not panic at all... You are so uncomfortable with taking me on a tour these days, it is obvious that you have made up your mind .”

Gu Shen smiled and said, "Continue."

"The red dragon, it can only be the red dragon. He is the only one who can bring me back to the Tower of Origin safely, explain the destruction of the 'Cloud Ship Fleet', and make Qinglong completely at ease..."

Gu Xiaoman stared into Gu Shen's eyes seriously, and asked word by word: "It's like you let him take me away... There is no other explanation for this matter, you two must be together, if If I'm not wrong, he should have contacted you countless times in the past few days, right? You can really hold your breath, just keep the outside news from the outside, and let me hang out in Nagano for seven days?"

Gu Shen picked up the chopsticks, pointed at the dishes on the table, and said with an evasive smile: "You should eat, you should drink, don't worry about things."

"Hey, is there a mistake?"

Gu Xiaoman put his hips on his hips and said angrily: "It's about to start fighting outside! I'm in a hurry, why aren't you in a hurry?!"

Gu Shen picked up a piece of tofu, chewed it slowly, and said calmly, "So is there a fight outside?"

Gu Xiaoman was startled: "...No."

"If there is a real fight, the Church of the Storm will be beaten." Gu Shen said calmly, "They deserve a beating in the first place."

The crash of the cloud ship fleet should have made the Holy City responsible.

For their own sake, the fleets in Central City and Nagano were spared.

However, this matter cannot be explained clearly. Rather than saying that the Queen and Baishu brought the storm into the group, it is better to say that Central City and Nagano resisted the scapegoat of the ice sea mission, in exchange for such a "burden" of the church.

In the final plan, the only thing that can be used in Nanzhou is the God of Storms himself.

Gu Xiaoman had already guessed quite correctly, but she guessed a little wrong.

That is, these few days, Red Dragon did not urge Gu Shen too much.

After Gu Shen took Xiaoman back to Dongzhou, he got in touch with "064" Red Dragon through Chu Ling, and informed Xiaoman of the secret information about Xiaoman's safety. After the cloud boat fleet crashed, the Red Dragon was the most anxious thing, but after knowing the news , Red Dragon, an absolute acting school, began to perform, and the subsequent negotiations and pressure were all pretended by him.

Next, he will personally lead the team to break through the blockade of Yuanting Island.

At that time, Gu Shen will send people to the ice sea again.

Even if the handover task is completed.

Although the follow-up incidents on Yuanting Island have intensified in the past few days, Red Dragon only sent some simple greetings to Gu Shen.

He didn't mention the progress of the Yuanting Island incident at all, and he didn't urge Gu Shen to make friends.

He just asked Xiaoman where he went these few days with concern, and whether he had a good time...

This guy.

He is a two-faced person who is really cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

Red Dragon has always known that Gu Xiaoman's wish is to go to Nagano...so this time, he wants to make up for the part of his wish that is owed to Xiaoman.

The meal was tastelessly finished.

Gu Shen crossed his arms and looked at Xiao Man, the two just stared at each other silently.

Gu Shen suddenly asked: "Do you still remember what I told you on the initial account?"

Gu Xiaoman was in a complicated mood.

"I remember everything you said."

She sighed softly and asked, "Which sentence are you referring to?"

"If you don't have the ambition to support the sky, don't stand up."

Gu Shen said seriously: "If you feel tired, don't want to bear the weight of the 'Lord of Liquor', and want to stay in Nagano... now may be the last chance. I will ask Mr. Bai Shu to take action. You don't need to follow up the incident on Yuanting Island." No matter, from now on, you only need to stay here, and the chaos and struggles outside have nothing to do with you."

Gu Xiaoman was stunned.

"But……"

She subconsciously wanted to say something, but she stopped when she got to her mouth.

She already knew the layout of Mr. Bai Shu and the Queen, and Dongzhou Beizhou decided to jointly attack the Tower of Origin——

These people have done so much foreshadowing and planning.

What should they do if they back down?
"Don't overestimate your role."

Gu Shen could see the little girl's thoughts at a glance: "Before you became the 'Lord of Wine', you were just an ordinary person."

"When the sky falls, there will be tall people to carry it. Nagano has Mr. Baishu, and of course... there is me."

He smiled and said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not a noble person. At the beginning, I didn't think I would become the tall one. This is the key to what I said to you. If You have decided to return to the Tower of Origin, and the next time we meet, you may become the taller one, and by then you will not be able to retreat even if you want to."

"..."

The flagpole outside the window fluttered in the wind.

Gu Xiaoman looked at the clear blue sky of Nagano, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

She likes this quiet ancient city.

But she didn't want to stay here for a long time. The blood flowing in some people's bodies is hot, and a short rest is enough.

She only stayed for seven days, and she had already begun to miss the days when she was fighting with horses and horses.

Chu Ling looked at Gu Xiaoman's half-confused and half-confused pained expression at the moment, after all, he couldn't bear it.

She tugged Gu Shen, and said in a low voice, "Isn't it a little cruel for you to let her make a decision like this?"

"Hey, you didn't treat me like that at the time."

Thinking back to the scene when Ling Lingyao first met Chu Ling in the carriage, Gu Shen said angrily, "It's really... a loving mother with many failures."

Chu Ling: "???"

After a moment of silence, Gu Xiaoman took a deep breath, rubbed her cheeks vigorously to wake herself up, and then faced Gu Shen squarely.

Gu Xiaoman said word by word: "I want to go back."

"Really?" Gu Shen raised his eyebrows and asked, "There is no turning back after this trip."

"Why? You look down on me too much!"

Gu Xiaoman snorted coldly, and said: "Whether the sky is falling or not, whether you are tall or not, what you said is too complicated, too lofty... I don't have any lofty ambitions, just looking at the Tower of Origin is not good, and I want to take it down" The Tinder of Wine', and then slashed at Qinglong!"
