The King of Beasts smiles but does not speak [Shan Hai Jing]

Ever since he fell into a coma during the battle with Xiangliuba Snake, Liang Yu found that his five senses became more and more sensitive, especially for auras that he considered threatening.

So the next morning, he suddenly woke up from his sleep.

A familiar and icy breath came from the foot of Penglai Mountain, which dispelled all Liang Yu's drowsiness in an instant.

During this period of time, he also gradually adapted to this world, and no longer maintained a human state as before.Every night, he will turn into the appearance of Xiaowanzi, and the red coat he wears on weekdays is also in symbiosis with his human form, and there is no need to deliberately wear it.

So as soon as he felt the urgency of the situation, he sighed lightly, and he had finished packing.

The red clothes stood solemnly, with Yun Ju holding his sword behind him, he pushed the door and went out.

Outside the door, the guard who had been standing on the top of the mountain guarding the surroundings just happened to enter the inner hall to report to Liang Yu, but there was no panic in his eyes.

Penglai has its own defensive power, and no outsider has successfully broken in for 300 years, so the guards are not worried that the uninvited guest at the foot of the mountain can break the "defense line".

And just as the guards thought, this "uninvited guest" wandered down the mountain for a quarter of an hour but couldn't find a way to enter the mountain, so he was quite dumbfounded.

Naturally, he had heard of the legends about Penglai, but he always thought that these "legends" were mostly exaggerated, but he never expected that they were so real!

What can I do?I vowed to make a promise with the master, saying that I will be able to negotiate the "alliance" in a safe way, but in the end...

As a result, you can't even find someone's door now? !

...so embarrassing!

In the eyes of outsiders, Penglai is full of fog, but to Liang Yu, it is very clear.

He floated down the mountainside and looked down silently, quietly watching the people standing at the foot of the mountain flustered for a while.

In Liang Yu's thin impression, this person was full of arrogance and indifference, but now he thought that no one could see him, so his true nature was revealed, and he was jumping around at the bottom of the mountain and muttering.

"Wori!" Xiang Liu gritted his teeth angrily, "We agreed to form an alliance, but we showed our sincerity! Not only did they not take the initiative to find us, but when they saw me coming, they even refused to open the door for me!"

But after saying this, he couldn't help but find an excuse for Liang Yu.

"I'm so confused, he must not know that I'm coming..."

Perhaps it was because of thinking of the person in his heart that Xiang Liu's expression that was slightly ferocious due to anger gradually softened.

After a while, he sighed softly.

I don't know how that person is now. He suffered such a serious injury that day. Is he recovering now?

Liang Yu looked down at Xiang Liu, seeing that he suddenly became quiet, she couldn't help closing her eyes slightly.

——This person is too strange, he was so angry just now, why is he suddenly "quiet" now?

Liang Yu, who didn't know what Xiang Liu was thinking, was very puzzled, and directly defined this as Xiang Liu's "moodiness" in his heart.

After "peeping" for a while, he also lost interest, waved his long sleeves, and fell towards the direction where Xiang Liu was at the foot of the mountain.

Xiang Liu, who was immersed in his own thoughts, was in a trance, but was startled by the breath of the spirit beast that suddenly approached.

He hurriedly took two steps back, pulled out his silver whip from his waist and raised his head on guard, but happened to meet a pair of beautiful black eyes.

The owner of these eyes stood calmly in front of him, and said indifferently: "You came for the alliance?"

A completely businesslike tone.

I have not seen the kindness of friends, nor the guard and hatred of enemies.

Xiang Liu lowered his eyes in disappointment, and nodded.

It's just that this loss only lasted for a moment, and when he raised his eyes again, he was the fierce beast who was so indifferent and calm that even Liang Yu dared not underestimate him when he first met.

"Of course it's for an alliance." Xiang Liu raised his eyebrows, "I'm here in the name of my lord, and I want to make a formal alliance with you."

Above the Kyushu, the lords of the kingdoms have never personally acted.Xiang Liu is Xuan Ning's general, and being able to come alone and in person is enough to show Xuan Ning's sincerity and trust in Jiu Ming.

Liang Yu squinted his eyes and looked at Xiangliu for a moment, until he saw that the other party's eyes dodged suddenly for some reason, he turned to the side, and let Xiangliu move towards Neigu: "Penglai is dangerous, follow me."

This is Xiang Liu's first visit to Penglai.

Although he had heard a lot about this place in the legends, it was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.

Seeing the strange flowers and plants blooming continuously, the sky above the head and the white clouds softly pressing down, the surrounding air is gradually filled with a peaceful and gentle fragrance of flowers.

It really is a place like a fairyland on earth.

Xiang Liu followed Liang Yu closely, and he naturally knew that if he lost track of him, he would be trapped here if he couldn't tell.

So although he was very interested in the surrounding scenery, he was not obsessed.

What's more, that person has a smear of red on his body, even if it is dazzled and charming, he will never miss it.

"It's here." Liang Yuxing reached the gate of Neigu, his chin moved forward, "Please come in."

A dozen or so young girls who had already been waiting in front of the door bowed leisurely to Xiang Liu.And in the middle of the valley gate, Shuyan stood with arms folded.

As soon as Xiang Liu saw this person, he instinctively became wary, and unconsciously pressed the silver whip on his waist.

However, before he could react, the other party was already approaching, as if he didn't see the unfriendly light in his eyes, the other party smiled softly: "I'm sorry for your inconvenience, but you came from a long way away."

Xiang Liu: "...???"

The other party was born with a pair of very friendly eyebrows and eyes, and now this smile from the heart is even more difficult not to feel good about.

During the moment of hesitation, Xiang Liu actually felt that the rejection of this person in his heart suddenly decreased a bit.

He let go of his defensive posture, and returned a salute seriously.

It's just that I still have some doubts in my heart——

The last time this person saw him, he still looked like "I can't kill you, me and your surname". It's only been a few days, so the change is so big? !

Of course Xiangliu didn't know that in Shuyan's life, the most important thing was that his Patriarch was here.

The hatred that day was precisely because Shuyan believed that Xiang Liu had hurt the Lord, and that Xiang Liu was his enemy.

But today, Xiang Liu came here to promote the alliance that the lord expected, and to benefit the lord, that is the person he should let go of his grudges and treat each other gently.

As for personal grudges?

——Shuyan has always had a bad memory for unimportant people, and it is really embarrassing for him to remember these things that have nothing to do with the Lord.

Liang Yu led Xiang Liu to the center of the inner valley, and then lightly raised his right hand to wake up a candlestick hanging above the valley.

The candlestick instantly illuminated the square inch, and at the same time, a wall in front of the inner valley suddenly moved and opened and closed inwards with a "boom", revealing an extremely spacious hall amidst Xiang Liu's dumbfounded.

Liang Yu tilted his head slightly backwards, and said to Xiang Liu lightly, "Come."

The main hall is brighter than the entire inner valley, and directly opposite the door, there is a black carved dragon seat.

As soon as Xiang Liu saw the vague dragon shape on the seat, he thought of the dragon pattern on this man's forehead.

What exactly is this person, why is there no rumor at all?

Without turning his head, Liang Yu walked to the front chair and sat down calmly, then pointed to the lower chair and signaled Xiang Liu to sit down.

As soon as Xiang Liu took his seat, Yun Zhi, who was wearing a blue jacket, walked in from outside the door, and dropped the pastry in his hand on the table next to Xiang Liu's seat, his eyes were full of——

"Are you super grateful? I brought you a whole plate of sweets! Thank you!" with a complex expression.

Xiang Liu: "..."

Xiang Liu also fell silent in a complicated manner.

Coughing lightly, Xiang Liu tried his best to get to the point.

"What you told me earlier, I have truthfully conveyed to the Lord." As soon as he got down to business, Xiang Liu's expression also became serious, "My Lord indeed intends to form an alliance."

Liang Yu turned sideways slightly, stroked his forehead with one hand: "Since you intend to, let's be open and honest."

Xiang Liu was silent for a moment, smiled and looked up at Liang Yu who was seated in the chief seat: "How do you think of being 'open and honest'?"

"Now that I have established it for a long time, there are only two vassal states under my rule." Liang Yu's voice was cold, and he paused every word, "I will definitely expand the territory."

"Heh." Xiang Liu chuckled, "It's natural, isn't this the reason why Xuanning and Jiuming two kingdoms want to form an alliance?" He spoke slowly, and said, "I just don't know you. Where does 'expanding the frontier' begin and where does it end?"

Liang Yu lightly tapped the table next to the seat with his finger bones, and after a while, Ruan Ruan walked in and unfolded a clearly drawn map in front of Xiang Liu.

"I want to seize Qingman first." Liang Yu said softly, "Afterwards, point the sword at Xiangsu."

"Qingman..." Xiang Liu turned his gaze on the map, hesitated for a moment and said, "Qingman is on the east side of Kyushu, backed by mountains and rivers, easy to defend and difficult to attack, how do you want to attack?"

"Picture it slowly." Liang Yu said, "on the western border of Qingman, there is a country named 'Yimu'. This country is located on the border of Qingman, and it is adjacent to your Rouli country in Xuanning, so use it as an entry point to invade Qingman. quite."

Although Xiang Liu is smart, in this world, there is no such concept as "art of war".

For them, under normal circumstances, the domain owner chooses a random country to fight, and then their spirit beasts lead the team to rush there.

What's more, just like Ba Snake did last time, he didn't even say hello, and killed Jiuming with a single shot.

Now I suddenly heard that this person is seriously studying the national structure, and seems to be preparing to "picture it slowly" in a very rhythmic manner...

Xiang Liu pretended to be thinking, but actually didn't know what to think about: "..."

Suddenly felt that this person...

So tall! ! !

The author has something to say:

Xiang Liu: I suddenly feel that our painting style is different!

Shuyan: Hmph, good to know╭(╯^╰)╮

Ruan Ruan (with a slight smile): Little Bai Ze~ Do you think your painting style is the same as the master?

Shuyan: ...【If you have something to say secretly, don't be a (rival in love) face to me, we can still be good friends! !Boo! ! 】
