The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 719: One stone stirs up a thousand waves

At noon, there was a sudden cry of mourning in the palace.

In the tenth list of the new list, in the battle of the Dragon Slaying Dragon, the sanctuary leaves with a swollen face were gone, and they were sitting in the palace guest hospital.

The Queen of the Spirit Clan, Xiang Simeng, who was eccentrically recognized as the direct disciple of the Stolen Saint and had only been teaching the Thief Saint's skills well for a month or two, cried so hard that she "vomited three liters of blood and fainted several times."

He also beat up the two or five guards around him, scolded them for not guarding the master well, and ordered them to quickly purchase white flags, white clothes and other items for the mourning hall. The commotion instantly spread to the entire Holy Mountain, and spread throughout the entire Spirit Clan.

This kind of thing spreads spontaneously faster than an order asking them to investigate strange things in various places. Many tribal villages in various places didn't even receive an order to investigate, and they knew that the queen's master was dead first.

 The people of the Spirit Clan have no feelings for the Thief Saint. In fact, they all secretly want to die well. Only after he died did the Spiritual Tribe have the legal authority to control the Divine Axe. Otherwise, it would have always belonged to the old man. He said, "You can't control Sisi. Master will keep it safe for you first." In fact, if he didn't do anything, the Spirit Tribe would be able to find a way to control him. Divine axe.

In the eyes of the Eldar people, the old man had no intention of giving the axe. He was just seeking refuge from injury.

Just take refuge as long as you take refuge, and you don’t have any sense of being a refugee. A person with 25,000 to 80,000 yuan is just like a father. The queen sent the best witch doctor in the Eldar tribe to treat her. If she didn't accept it, she would let it go. She would also scold him as "a mess", "what the hell" and "just let me eat bugs?" She would only accept the medicine that he recognized, and the witch doctor was so angry that he had a beard. All shaking.

 Everyone is an old man, but you are the oldest? Who will die if you don't die? If you die early, everyone can set off firecrackers.

Now he is really dead, placed in a good coffin and placed in the temple, next to his beloved axe, which symbolizes the greatest achievement of his life. The queen didn't even eat lunch. She was sobbing and sitting beside the coffin in a daze.

I have to say that this filial piety is really beautiful...

　　The heads of various tribes who came to pay homage were obviously very familiar with their queen, but they still couldn't help but peek at her secretly. At this time, the queen has lost her usual quirky and devilish temperament, her rare softness and intellectuality. I heard that people in Middle-earth praised her as the most beautiful woman in the world. Is it because of this temperament? You know... By the way , the queen has learned very well in the past few months, she has become more literary and artistic...

 It’s a pity that no matter how beautiful she is, no one else can touch her. She is forbidden by the Holy Envoy. In theory, her legal system is to rule the ethnic group on behalf of the ancestor god. To desecrate her is to blaspheme the gods.

 But there are also people who are thinking that the so-called holy messengers are all fighting outside in the north and south, and there is no so-called omnipresent power of divine presence. Is he really a holy messenger? Many knowledgeable people actually know that this is not the case. The vision of the beasts and spirits that occurred when the Queen ascended the throne was most likely an illusion effect and not real.

Zhao Changhe actually cannot represent the ancestral gods, nor can the Queen.

Once she cannot be represented, Sisi's authority will be much lower. She is a young person without the support of her own clan, and her accumulation in the clan is not very good.

There are two core groups of people who support her most. One is the young people who want to get rid of the three-acre land of the Spirit Clan and yearn for the colorful world outside; the other is the Xia people who were previously sheltered. Many of the former are limited by the orders of their elders and cannot make much noise under the traditional system, while the latter have healed their scars and forgotten the pain. They have long forgotten the miserable past of being institutionalized and began to fight for power. Looking for personal gain...

So is it possible to do something while the so-called holy envoy is not here at all...

 Inciting that "the divine ax is destined to us" is actually a way of provoking the queen's prestige to see if she wants the ax for the ethnic group, or to suppress the ethnic group for the old man. Facts have proved that she chose to respect the old man, so many neutrals were provoked to dissatisfaction.

 The old man is a top official, and no one dares to say anything, but he is dead.

 Have a good death...

 When many of the headmen went to worship, they secretly started some connections and undercurrents surged.

Zhao Changhe, who had been secretly watching and watching all the changes with a cold eye, expanded his overlooking eyes to the extreme, covering the movements around the entire holy mountain, and suddenly discovered that someone among them had gone to the direction of his ancestral grave where he had lived in seclusion.

Zhao Changhe finally felt something in his heart, what's over there? It's not just a grave bag. When he was living in seclusion and having sex, he discovered that he would have a higher understanding there. Later, Sisi must have arranged for the strong men in the clan to take turns to receive the inheritance from the ancestors nearby, and there was a tight defense and garrison.

  In other words, apart from the Holy Mountain, that side may be the place with the strongest military force within the Eldar Tribe.

And... once my thoughts are led to the tomb, I will immediately think of this inexplicable cold weather. Is it related to the Inferi?

Unexpectedly, the Thief Saint wanted to catch the fish that stole the axe, but he found other clues... Zhao Changhe glanced at Sisi for the last time, and after deliberation, he still unfolded his body and went to the tomb first. That side is probably the highlight.

 …

 Dali at this time.

After Yue Hongling observed the movements of Panwan Dao Qingfeng and other forces, she didn't see any problems at first, and she didn't feel anything special in Dali.

But she instinctively felt that something was wrong. The transparent sword heart told herself that there was extremely dangerous evil hidden here. So much so that she always felt tense in her heart, which was a rare warning in her many years of traveling alone.

So he did not leave to find Zhao Changhe, but continued to patrol the surrounding area, searching for the source of what felt wrong.

Just when I had found nothing, I was squatting in a shop outside Baimiao eating rice noodles, when suddenly a horse came galloping towards me, and there seemed to be an urgent report. Yue Hongling quickly threw away the rice noodles and followed this person into Bai Miao Village.

The leader of the Bai Miao clan, Dao Qingfeng, was also eating. The visitor rushed in and smiled from afar: "Are you still in the mood to eat?"

Dao Qingfeng was stunned, glanced left and right, waved away his subordinates, and lowered his voice: "What are you doing, seeing me so openly?"

"What does that have to do with it?" The visitor smiled and said: "The Thief of Saint Ye has no trace and died in the secret realm of the Spirit Clan half an hour ago. This matter has gone viral now, so I came here to inform you."

Dao Qingfeng was stunned. He didn't understand the meaning here for a moment: "Does it matter whether he dies or not? He is a wounded person in the first place. Even if it is a bit of a deterrent, he is not the only one that everyone is worried about."

"What we are worried about is not him, but his ability to control the Immortal God Ax. Divine Thunder Huanghuang has a great restraint effect on what we are planning. Once he dies and no one controls the ax, the opportunity will come."

“Why is there no one controlling the axe? Xiang Simeng can do it himself.”

"Because there will be people who are not willing to let her continue to control the axe, this moment must be a time of internal strife within the Eldar clan. This is a perfect time. They are in turmoil internally, and we are cooperating externally...Those who seek personal gain will not know , just their selfish desires will cause the Miao territory to change owners in one day, and the entire Spirit Clan will become our slaves."

Dao Qingfeng's expression finally changed slightly: "Are you sure that the spirit clan will fight and quarrel among themselves instead of immediately controlling the divine ax?"

"Confirmed." The visitor said hurriedly: "The opportunity only lasts for a few hours. If Xiang Simeng is strong enough to suppress all opposition and subdue the divine ax as quickly as possible, we will be too late. At this moment, it is Now!"

Dao Qingfeng hesitated and said: "Is it a little sudden..."

"It happens suddenly to everyone. The death of Master Xiang Simeng was also sudden. We have been planning for so long, so we are not acting in a hurry. Xiang Simeng suddenly encounters internal and external changes, which is the real rush." ​​The visitor said: "I know you doubt whether it will happen. There will be traps, but the body is really lying in the coffin. In fact, even if there are some traps, we have to activate them sooner or later. We cannot wait forever. When is the right time?"

Dao Qingfeng finally stood up and took a few steps: "That's now!"

The elites of the Bai Miao tribe suddenly activated, and what they rushed to was not in the direction of Taoyuan Town, but... the tomb in the west of Dali, which was the tomb of the Black Miao King who was killed by Xia Longyuan in his early years.

Since the defeat of Lei Zhentang, the Black Miao army has declined greatly and has taken refuge with other powerful tribes. The most important of them was conquered and absorbed by the feudal enemy Bai Miao. In the past few months, the tomb of King Black Miao has been gradually excavated by Dao Qingfeng. Many treasures have been dug out and sold for money, but the body is still there.

No one knows why Dao Qingfeng did not destroy the body of the Black Miao King he hated so much, but now Yue Hongling seems to know.
