Big dreamer

"Misu, how far is it from here to Qingqiu Kingdom?" Hu Bugui suddenly asked.

"It's not far. Our Qingqiu fox tribe is huge, and the tribe has been expanding over the years. After passing the valley in front, you can see a village." Misu pointed to the front and said.

Hu Bugui nodded and looked over there.

Soon, the three of them turned around the valley and saw the small village from afar.

It didn't look much different from the human village, but the houses built by the fox tribe were mostly circular semi-underground buildings, with logs as walls and wooden boards and hay on the roof.

What's different is that these fox houses, almost all of them, have two or three doors in different directions.

Misu saw this and was about to run over there, but was stopped by Shen Luo.

"Wait, something is wrong."

It was dusk, and it should be time for everyone to cook dinner, but the village was dead silent, without any smoke rising, and it looked like no one was living there...

Shen Luo immediately released his spiritual sense to investigate, and sure enough, there was no one inside.

"How could this happen?" Mi Su asked in surprise.

"Let's go and take a look." Shen Luo said, walking in front.

Mi Su followed closely behind him, and Hu Bugui naturally protected the back.

But after the three of them entered the village and checked around, they found that the village was neat and tidy everywhere, with no signs of damage to the houses and no signs of fighting anywhere.

"It seems that these villagers evacuated in an orderly manner, not like they were attacked." Hu Bugui pointed to several complicated wheel tracks extending to the other end of the village and said.

"It seems that Qingqiu Country has also sensed the crisis and evacuated all the villagers in advance." Shen Luo frowned.

"There is no time to lose. We must rush to Qingqiu Kingdom as soon as possible to find out what is going on. If the conflict is not resolved, I am afraid that the Tang Dynasty and Qingqiu will really have a war." Hu Bugui said.

The three of them immediately sped up and rushed to Qingqiu Kingdom.

...

In the early morning of the second day, the three of them came to the deepest part of Chaoyang Valley in the morning light.

This is already the narrowest place in the entire valley. The towering mountain walls on both sides are extremely smooth. Under the reflection of the morning sun, they are golden and look brilliant.

Under the golden light, a city fortress formed by continuous buildings stands in the valley sandwiched between two mountain walls, bathed in dazzling light, exuding a very unique atmosphere.

Shen Luo and the other two stood outside the city, watching the scene in front of them quietly.

The little fox Mi Su has long been accustomed to it. In his eyes, there is not much emotion except the joy of returning home.

Shen Luo sighed that the origin of Chaoyang Valley may be because of this.

Only Hu Bugui had a complicated expression, and there was some excitement in his eyes.

Arriving here, the three people's previous doubts were mostly solved. The terrain outside the city was not flat, and there were platforms of different sizes, with hundreds of colorful tents built on them.

The villagers in the vacant villages encountered on the road before were now settled here.

"Let's go, we'll go into the city now." Mi Su pulled up the sleeves of Shen Luo and Hu Bugui and ran towards the city.

Before they reached the city gate, they attracted a series of exclamations.

Those foxes who had just walked out of the tent in the morning were also very surprised to see Shen Luo, a human.

However, the three of them had no time to care about it at the moment, and went straight to the city gate.

The fox cultivators stationed outside the city also rushed over quickly and stopped the three of them.

"Who trespassed into Qingqiu Country?" The leading cultivator, with a slender figure and elegant appearance, asked.

As he spoke, the aura on his body spread out, and he was surprisingly a cultivator in the early stage of True Immortal.

"Grandma Youli, why are you guarding the gate here?" Mi Su exclaimed in surprise.

The cultivator's attention was originally on Shen Luo. After hearing this, he looked again and exclaimed in surprise: "It's little Mi Su who is back. Let grandma see, is she not injured?"

Youli looks very young, and looks not much older than Mi Su. The picture of the two of them being a grandfather and grandson looks a bit weird.

"Ahem, Elder Youli, I'm Shen Luo, from Chang'an City." Shen Luo had to cough twice and said.

He revealed his identity in one sentence, and Youli's face turned cold after hearing it.

"Grandma Youli, it was Brother Shen and Brother Hu who escorted me back. When I was in Chang'an, it was Brother Shen who always protected me." Mi Su added hurriedly after seeing this.

Hearing this, Elder Youli's expression eased and nodded to Shen Luo and Hu Bugui.

But when he looked at Hu Bugui, his eyebrows couldn't help but raise slightly.

"Grandma, did you do something wrong that my grandma punished you to guard the city gate?" Mi Su asked.

"What a mess, I am responsible for settling these clansmen outside, and by the way, I am keeping an eye on the city defense. But you, you sneaked out of Qingqiu this time, let's see how you will explain to your grandma when you go back?" Elder You Li looked at her with some sympathy.

Mi Su couldn't help shrinking her neck when she heard it, and it was obvious that she was a little afraid of her grandma.

"Did you come to the Fox Clan to escort Mi Su?" Elder You Li looked at Shen Luo and asked.

"Not entirely, we also want to investigate the chaos in Chang'an, who is the one who led it?" Shen Luo said.

"Just you two?" Elder Youli obviously didn't trust them.

"If two Taiyi realm monks come, I'm afraid the Qingqiu Fox Clan won't let them in with confidence, right? The situation is urgent now. If the truth cannot be investigated as soon as possible, I'm afraid the Qingqiu Congress will be in danger of annihilation." Shen Luohei He didn't care and said.

"Grandma Youli..." Misu muttered, somewhat dissatisfied.

"Okay, okay, you'd better go back and see your grandma first." Elder Youli said helplessly.

Misu stuck out her tongue and turned around to lead Shen Luo and others away.

"If possible, I also hope to meet the Lord of Qingqiu." Shen Luo said.

"You want to see the king, what's the matter?" Elder Youli asked, frowning.

"As a witness to the chaos in Chang'an, I want to ask the Lord of Qingqiu for some information," Shen Luo said.

"Are you representing the Tang government?" Elder Youli asked.

"On behalf of myself and those who witnessed the chaos in Chang'an, I need to hear Qingqiu Kingdom's explanation with my own ears." Shen Luo said calmly.

"Hmph, do our kings need to explain to you, a little true immortal monk?" Elder Youli sneered.

"It's not for me. The time when the chaos in Chang'an occurred was during the Yanhe Conference held by various factions in the three realms. It was not just the Tang Dynasty government that was disrupted. It has now aroused dissatisfaction among all the factions in the three realms. When the time comes, I will report to you Qingqiu I'm afraid the Tang government is not the only one who raised the issue. Don't you think there should be a reasonable explanation?" Shen Luo sneered and said.

"Are you threatening me?" Elder Youli asked with a frown.
