step by step

Before Kong Zhu could utter the word "yes" decisively, Shi Sang suddenly reached out and pulled her from the ground to stand up.Kong Zhu looked around, and the patriarch seemed to have finally discovered that the atmosphere between the two was not right. Seeing that the ceremony was over, he immediately dispersed the crowd.At this time, apart from him, the First Elder and Su Ke, only the Third Elder who had a better impression of Kong Zhu was left here.

It's just that the old man's complexion is really not very good-looking now. "Girl Shisang, tell me, are you two what I think?"

Shi Sang chuckled and said, "Uncle patriarch, why are you so angry? You scared me. What are you like? Why can't I understand what you are saying?"

The patriarch was out of breath, and his gray beard suddenly turned up: "Kong Zhu girl, come and tell me, won't you?"

The matter has come to this point, it is useless to regret and panic.Kong Zhu slowly restrained his expression, and said in a calm tone: "Didn't you see it all? Now I still have room for repentance?"

The patriarch was completely irritable: "You know that's not what I said! I mean...you, you two are really—" He took a few breaths and murmured weakly: "Is it true that a thousand years ago The catastrophe, do you want to repeat it again now? Is it true that the sky is going to die and I read my heart? God of prophecy, have you abandoned your child?!"

Kong Zhu and the others fell silent.Shi Sang's voice cooled down a little bit: "Stop thinking about it, if the God of Prophecy can really help, then the disaster that almost wiped out the family thousands of years ago will not happen. And so many gods fell at the end of the ancient times. , who knows if he still exists in the world? Now the mainland is not the chaotic era of the seven kingdoms a thousand years ago. Today's Dachang has no cohesive people, no strong army, and the emperor only cares about indulging in sex. Do you care about the internal affairs of my prophet family?"

Her eyes swept over everyone present one by one, showing the air of a king.Even Kong Zhu has to admit that she looks more like a wise monarch than her father at the moment: "What are you afraid of? Do we need to be afraid of anything? Mind-reading is not the same as it was a thousand years ago We only care about cultivation, and we don’t hear things outside the window. We know no less than others in plots and tricks. With the lessons learned from the past, can we capsize in the gutter and be plotted by others?"

After her words fell, there was silence in the ancestral hall.Not long after, Su Ke was the first to respond: "Well said! What are we the prophets afraid of? We are smarter than them, and we are stronger than them. Today is no different from the past. As long as we want to, with our strength, we can always Can build a new dynasty. The current situation is not like it was thousands of years ago, with internal and external troubles, as long as my family of prophets is twisted into one rope, the royal family will have no choice but to fear the spit of the world?"

The faces of the patriarch and the two elders couldn't help showing relief, and the dignified atmosphere quietly disappeared within Shi Sang's few words.However, the patriarch quickly reacted, and said angrily: "You bastard! You almost got me in! Why are you so excited? I'm obviously reprimanding the two girls for not knowing the importance. If it really matters, I don't know how to hide it. I flirted softly and flirted with each other. In the end, I was dragged into which corner by you kid?

Also create a new dynasty?Why did you start dreaming before it was dark?Do you want to prepare a bedding for you here again, so that you can sleep comfortably?Still smarter than them?You have the nerve to say so!Is the reputation of Xiao Zhuge, the literary minister, just for viewing?Where are you smarter than others?I think you are inferior to others in everything except your tone! "

Su Ke was completely stunned by the scolding. He looked at Shi Sang with aggrieved eyes, knowing that the patriarch couldn't bear to scold the two girls, so he vented all his anger on him.He just answered a few words, he was scolded so bloody, but the patriarch didn't even have a harsh word to Shi Sang.Alas, this differential treatment is really chilling.

But to be honest, this sudden knowledge of the relationship between Toki-sang and Kongzhu...he hasn't fully digested it yet.Two good girls, tsk, what a pity.

"If there is nothing else, I want to go back first." Kong Zhu said wearily.

She admitted she was trying to get away with it.She really didn't have the courage to stay any longer.From now on, when anyone mentions her, they will definitely mention another name, Shi Sang.There is an invisible silk thread tightly entwining the bodies of the two of them. They are contract partners, and they will share everything in life.No one seemed to ask her if she wanted to.Just because Shi Sang announced that they were in this kind of relationship, they assumed that she must also be happy in her heart.It's ridiculous.

"Wait a minute, there is indeed one thing. It may be helpful to you." The Great Elder said suddenly.He was responsible for collecting news from the outside world, and he had just received this news on the way to the ancestral hall, so he didn't have time to report it to the patriarch.For some reason, seeing this news, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"A few days ago, the frontier sent an urgent battle report at eight hundred miles, which was marked as top secret, and it was directly submitted to Emperor Zhaohe to open it for viewing. It is said that Emperor Zhaohe lost his composure after reading the battle report and smashed his favorite jade. Ruyi. The Emperor Zhaohe urgently summoned his confidant ministers overnight. After a whole night of discussions, he went up the next morning and sent Seventh Prince Ze to lead an army of 40 to the border. He only said to the border to suppress bandits.

Our person who sent the news said that after the court fell that day, the faces of the officials who knew the inside story were terrible, as if they had been greatly frightened and lost their souls.The person who sent the news felt that this matter was rather strange, so he quickly passed it to me.See if you want to continue the investigation. "

"Did you say which side of the border is it?" the patriarch asked.

"It's Southern Border."

The Great Elder and the Patriarch looked at each other, and Qi Qi turned to look at Shi Sang and Kong Zhu.

As we all know, the northern border of Dachang is a place of extreme arctic cold, desolate and uninhabited, except for the mind-reading, no race can survive here.The reason why Reading Heart Pulse chose this location is because of this.But even so, the elites of the clan lived on the top of Hanchuan, and they all had powerful strengths to protect themselves. The most important thing was the barrier formed by the elders.If it weren't for these things, Reading Heart wouldn't be able to stay here.

Dachang faces the sea to the east, with turbulent water and reefs everywhere. With such natural dangers, almost no neighboring countries that don't have a good eye pay attention to it.

Xijiang can be said to be the least peaceful place, of course, this is only compared to the other three sides.There are many nomadic tribes living here, and they will go to several nearby villages to enjoy the autumn wind during the autumn harvest.It's just that their number is too small to be a climate at all.It won't do much harm to Dachang.If it weren't for their small number of people and strong mobility, they would move the whole family if something went wrong.The western border grasslands are too vast, and it takes a lot of effort to search for the army, so the emperors of all dynasties simply sent troops to garrison in turn, taking this opportunity to see their own troops in blood, which has the effect of training troops.

Southern Xinjiang, this corner is almost forgotten.Southern Border is called the Land of Exile, and this name seems to have existed before Dachang existed.Regardless of whether it was the turbulent times before or the current peace and prosperity, if someone committed a crime and could not be directly sentenced to death due to certain concerns, those in power would send the person to exile.That place is extremely strange, the land looks fertile, but no matter what kind of food is planted, it will die straight in the ground.

The harshness of the environment in the exiled land is almost comparable to that of the extreme north. The high temperature during the day can almost roast a person, but at night, the dripping water turns into ice.Nobody survived two nights there.It is said that the soldiers stood on the city wall of the southern frontier and watched from a distance.You can see the reflection of the sun, where there are white flowers.Those are the bones of dead people.

"Could someone have survived there? They even organized an army to attack Dachang?" Even Shi Sang, who was speaking, found this ridiculous.
