The sky is gray.
A ray of dawn cut through the sky, through the clouds and reflected on the border wall.
In the yard.
"It's dawn."
Yan Wu looked at his legs and looked up at the sky. There was a barbecue bonfire in front of him. A huge tiger leg was roasting on it.
Tiger legs are the enemy's mounts. They were brought back after Yan Wu killed them.
"Let's go back to the imperial capital. I don't know where it will be a breakthrough this time." Tu Sinan got up.
The breakthrough in his mouth refers to the place where strange creatures concentrate and erupt.
Strange creatures will attack places where people gather. They will appear outside the densely populated forces. Every time they are outside the scope of influence. They generally appear outside the scope of various forces and will not appear inside. Take the Qin Dynasty as an example.
The great Qin Dynasty is very large. It covers a vast territory and occupies hundreds of millions of miles. It is surrounded by 108 Xiongguan. Strange creatures will appear outside Xiongguan. They will not appear within the power.
The vigil will turn into darkness outside every sphere of influence.
There is a reason for this.
This is the theory summarized by predecessors!
Ordinary people often say that people have three fires. The more people there are, the more prosperous the fire is, and evil spirits can't get close to them.
This statement evolved through vigil.
The more people gather, the more the fire will be. If people are regarded as lights, there will be no darkness in the place illuminated by lights. Therefore, darkness will only exist in an uninhabited place.
Through the ages, each sphere of influence has long been linked to this popularity.
It doesn't mean that you can expand if you want. The size of power has a great relationship with the land and people.
Therefore, the sphere of influence has been divided by each faction early, and the size of the area is determined according to the popularity, which leads to the situation that strange creatures only appear outside the sphere of influence. This is not determined by strange creatures, but man-made.
Of course, the more people, the better. On the contrary, the more people, the greater the danger and popularity, the larger the area illuminated by the lights, the more light, and naturally attract more strange creatures.
Strange creatures like to eat creatures. Naturally, they will find popular places.
The popularity of the Qin Dynasty is strong, and the fire of popularity lights up hundreds of millions of miles. There will be strange creatures in all directions in such a huge range. They will choose one as a breakthrough!
This is what Tu Si's breakthrough in Nankou means.
"I don't know how many people will die this time." Yan Wu narrowed his eyes.
He sat up and looked into the distance. "All major forces will begin to gather the scattered people, and they will migrate to the nearest city. Even those scattered in the broken wasteland and independent cities and towns will migrate collectively. How many forces will accept..."
Emperor unification forces do not have accidents. Generally speaking, they will get through difficulties.
However, not every force is an imperial power, just like Xiaohuai City, a popular gathering place. They can't spend it safely. There are only two ways for them, one is to migrate and rely on the big forces, and the other is to resist by themselves.
First, it's OK for the big forces to accept. What they fear most is that the big forces are afraid of too many people. If they choose to refuse, they can only take the second road.
The second way, can small forces resist? Through the ages, countless gathering places have been destroyed on the vigil. This is a kind of sadness and desolation.
"Some emperors have a large sphere of influence and need to be filled with popularity. They will choose to accept them." Xia you said.
If the big forces refuse, naturally they can only take the second way.
However, there are also forces that will expand and attract many people.
"That also needs to happen to meet."
Yan Wu shook his head.
Some gathering places are not in a good position. They want to move. The major forces nearby do not accept them. What should they do?
"Sometimes I'm thinking, if heaven and earth were unified, would it be so?" Yan Wu whispered, and his eyes became blurred.
The broken wasteland is unified, the popularity is condensed, and the fire of popularity burns to illuminate the heavens. They can even go into the dark and turn the world upside down. This is his fantasy.
"Hey."
Yan Wu sighed.
This fantasy is destined to be only a fantasy.
"Let's go back." Fang Xuan's gentle voice sounded.
They set foot on the journey to the imperial capital. Only the transmission array of the imperial city can reach the border at the first time and go to the border place they want.
……
All major forces have their own movements.
The strong go out of their sphere of influence to absorb people and gathering places scattered on the earth.
It is also powerful, stabilizing itself, ignoring the outside world and preparing for the vigil.
The gates of the major border cities of the Qin Dynasty were opened, and tens of thousands of people entered the Qin Dynasty. They were scattered in the dilapidated wasteland, as well as the collective migration of people from cities and towns.
From the news that the vigil is coming, word of mouth, no one knows the news of the arrival of the vigil.
"We will also start to migrate to Daqin."
Zhang Niu in Xiaohuai city made a sound.
As early as the fight between the great Qin Dynasty and the southern Dou Dynasty, the people of Xiaohuai city were preparing to migrate. Now the vigil came, they immediately made a decision to go to the great Qin Dynasty!
It's not just Zhang Niu and them... People and gathering places scattered outside the four borders of the Qin Dynasty began to rush to Daqin. Absolutely some people chose Daqin, and only a few went to Feixian and Nandu.
Empress palace.
Its subordinate cities also began to act.
At the same time, the elders in the palace constantly inspected the defense array on the ground under the command of the female emperor palace to check for mistakes.
There were many female practitioners in the female emperor's palace, and a huge flow of people came to Hongxuan city.
Xiling holy land, like the empress palace, attracts female monks as always.
In their subordinate regions, all the families have received orders. The strong go out of the closed place, step out of the cave and gather people
There is a huge sand table in the hands of each imperial power.
There is a little star on the sand table, which is not only popularity, but also popularity fire. You can see how strong the popularity fire of their forces is and how large the area is illuminated by the sand table.
Some people looked at the fire and waved to people to continue to gather people in. It was also ordered not to absorb people in.
Orders came from the decision-makers of the great emperors.
The Qin Dynasty.
In the Huangdu transmission array area, a huge transmission array platform flashes off.
Some figures appeared in it.
There are childe in white, little girl and cat
"Back to the imperial capital again." Yan Wu took a deep breath, sighed on his face, and went to the border for ten days, as if it were another world.
"Go, I'll take you to my palace."
Tu Sinan said with a smile that he was about to walk towards the prince's house of an.
At this time, a figure appeared, impressively Tiangang!
Tiangang saluted Fang Xuan and Tu Sinan. "Mr. Fang, his highness Sinan, young master Yan, please."
He said that Xia Chunqiu invited them to be like a palace.
Fang Xuan nodded, arched his hand to Tiangang and said with a gentle smile, "thank you for leading the way."
"No, it's the duty of subordinates." Tiangang saluted back. There was no emotional change on his face. It was not that he didn't want to make an expression, but his facial paralysis, the real facial paralysis.
"Even me? I just want to meet this man, Zhongxian Jun, Emperor Zhongde Lord."
Yan Wu bared his teeth and smiled.
Xia Chunqiu, known as the only broken wasteland for thousands of years, has unparalleled wisdom and wisdom like a demon!
The destruction of the "cangyan Que", a hostile Taoist tradition that has been handed down for millions of years, has left the Feixian God Dynasty, the Nandu God Dynasty and other forces unable to respond, so they can only watch the destruction of cangyan que.
His wisdom is the first in the ages, and his virtue is also known by everyone. When he was the prince of the Qin Dynasty, a big man came to the Qin Dynasty and said golden words after seeing Xia Chunqiu. Xia Chunqiu must be a wise king through the ages in the future.
Among his peers, Xia Chunqiu stands at the top.
He didn't use force. He was just a mortal, but he stood side by side with or even surpassed the proud children of the monastic world.
"It's natural that childe Yan can make friends with Mr. Fang, and the emperor also has an invitation." Tiangang said that this sentence only praised Yan Wu and Fang Xuan at the same time.
This is a compliment, but it is also a fact.
Who is Fang Xuan? The people who make friends with him are telling extraordinary stories.
After the words, Tiangang bowed and walked ahead to lead the way.
No words on the way.
The palace garden is on the pavilion where Fang Xuan met Xia Chunqiu at the beginning.
A young man stood up, wearing the emperor's robe, smiling, upright and symmetrical, with a touch of dignity but no sense of distance, as if the Emperor Wen was alive.
Xia Chunqiu stood at the entrance of the pavilion, overlooking the end of the garden path.
At this time.
Tiangang appeared. Behind him were Fang Xuan, Yan Wu and Tu Sinan.
Without much to say, Xia Chunqiu walked up the steps. He went straight to the people and made an apology.
"If you fail to invite me in person, please be disrespectful!" Xia Chunqiu apologized for not inviting me in person.
Fang Xuan smiled lightly.
He could tell that his voice was sincere without any fraud.
"Chunqiu is worried about it." Fang Xuan raised Xia Chunqiu and confided in a gentle voice, "we know your difficulties. Our friends are supposed to understand each other. How can we talk about rude neglect?"
"Hey, hey, you are Fang Xuan's friend. Naturally, you are my friend." Yan Wu grinned. Even if he was in the Daqin palace, he was a little unrestrained and calm.
Listening to Fang Xuan's rhetorical question, Yan had no words. Xia Chunqiu smiled and didn't say much on this issue.
"This ceremony doesn't talk, but you can't refuse to accept one ceremony, Fang Xuan." Xia Chunqiu said.
In his words, he looked at Fang Xuan, Yan Wu and Xia you.
"You are kind to me. The spring and autumn ceremony represents the Qin Dynasty."
Language closure.
Xia Chunqiu bowed his hands and looked serious and solemn.
In this regard, Fang Xuan did not hold Xia Chunqiu and allowed him to pay his thanks.
The etiquette between friends can be easily diluted, but Fang Xuan doesn't need to shirk this kind of thank-you gift. He really has the qualification to accept it. He is not a hypocritical person. If he helps, he will help. It's normal to receive this gift.
"Hey, after being worshipped by the virtuous Lord, it seems that there is something to boast about in the future." Yan Wu winked at Xia Chunqiu after watching Xia Chunqiu worship.
"In the spring and Autumn period, you should not have the reputation of being virtuous and virtuous."
Xia Chunqiu shook his head and smiled.
It's not humility, but he thinks so. From beginning to end, he didn't hide the look on his face. He looked approachable and gentle as jade, which is somewhat similar to Fang Xuan.
"I've prepared a banquet. It's rare to have time today. I'd rather have a drink with Fang Xuan."
"Is this wine mixed with water?" Fang Xuan picked his eyebrow and smiled.
"Ha ha, this is nature. I always use Sinan's secret recipe."
Xia Chunqiu freely admitted that he was also proud.
See this.
He has no face and looks strange.
"My secret recipe..." Tu Sinan patted Yan wushoulder and smiled to answer it.
Hearing the speech, Yan Wu was unable to laugh or cry.
He's also a funny person.
His evaluation of Xia Chunqiu was a little higher in his heart. For nothing else, it was enough to make Yan Wu feel good about him.
On the wine table.
After several rounds of toast, Xia Chunqiu said, "I heard Sinan say, Fang Xuan, you want to enter the darkness on the night watch?"
He spoke very seriously, and his eyebrows wrinkled slightly.
After receiving Fang Xuan's response, Xia Chunqiu frowned deeper.
"This time, the number of people in Daqin is expected to exceed 100 million, the popularity is strong, and the difficulties are more than three times that of other orthodoxy. There must be strange moves in the holy land, not one or two..."
The fire of popularity in Daqin is one of the most vigorous in the broken wasteland.
Every time there are strange creatures in the holy land, this time is no exception, or even more than ever.
Compared with the past, there were many strong people in the past, but they could not afford consumption and died a lot. As for the population, it did not decrease much. After the wars of the Qin Dynasty, more martial mortals entered the imperial dynasty and joined the imperial dynasty.
So the population is larger than ever!
If Daqin has a future and can survive this life, there will be a qualitative leap and a glorious and prosperous era will come.
Because of this, Fang Xuan has to face countless strange creatures when he enters the "darkness". The more strange creatures, the stronger the "darkness", and he will quickly get lost in the darkness.
"I've lost my mind." Fang Xuan said.
Xia Chunqiu sighed.
"Is there any way for Daqin to resist this vigil?" Fang Xuan didn't seem to want to be superfluous on this topic.
Hearing the speech, Tu Sinan looked at Xia Chunqiu.
Yan Wuyi looks at this problem. They all want to know. It is also one of the reasons why they came to the imperial capital. Daqin will accept many people every year, and many people will die. Now there are many wars and many deaths and injuries. Is there any hope in the face of the vigil?
"Over the years, the number of night watchmen has been increasing and has never stopped." Xia Chunqiu said, "what I believe is that they can resist."
Night watchman.
It has been a group since ancient times.
They exist for the vigil, and because the vigil is extinguished.
Tracing the history of the night watchman, we can talk about the Hongmeng era and the years before the ages
Every faction will have night watchmen. They train night watchmen, have special methods and means for strange creatures. These people have devoted their lives to night watchmen.
In the earliest years, there were clear historical records that night watchmen were a special group. They did not belong to any force and were independent in the world. On night watchday, they would fight against strange creatures. They spread the magic and supernatural powers specifically for strange creatures.
Therefore, the major forces began to train night watchmen for the night watch day.
Therefore, the night watchers of all major forces come from the same source. Therefore, the night watchers are divided into two types, one is the initial night watcher, and the other is the night watcher. The former refers to the first group of people, those who spread Taoism against strange creatures.
At the beginning, the night watchman was very mysterious. He called himself a sinner and a night watchman.
No one made it clear about them.
There are too many mysteries in this world, taboo stone statues, immortals, night watchmen, night watchmen
The night watchman is the real living 'mystery'.
It is also the only force that existed and survived from the historical fault before the ages!
This is because they know the vigil and the strange creatures.
The time when the vigil appears is uncertain. Sometimes it appears every 100 years, sometimes three or four thousand years, sometimes... The time is chaotic and irregular, which can only be calculated by the master of heaven's secrets.
The night watchmen are even more terrible. They are more mysterious than those Heavenly Immortal masters in Tianji building. They can know the years and times when the next night watchday will appear for a long time in advance. They will notify major forces in advance and start cultivating night watchdays. There is no mistake.
The night watchmen of major forces began to cultivate under the advice of the night watchman at the beginning, but they don't exist all the time!
After all, the existence of night watchmen is very difficult. They need to give up their relatives, give up their friends and devote themselves to the future night watchday. "Once they join the night watchman, there is no such person in the world." what they say is that entering the night watchman is tantamount to death. The killing and magical powers they have cultivated all their life exist for strange creatures.
Listening to Xia Chunqiu's words, Fang Xuan's eyes twinkled, "the twelve hours at the beginning of the vigil is the most difficult time, which is more difficult than ever."
Wen Yan.
Everyone present was shocked.
"Have you got anything?" Xia Chunqiu whispered. Kuang Chengsi had sent him a message about Fang Xuan's being a master of heaven's secrets, so he asked.
"The tragedy of Qingxuan vigil will appear again."
"What?!"
Everyone present was shocked.
Fang Xuan's "Qingxuan vigil" is a special day, one of the few named vigils.
Qingxuan vigil refers to the vigil when the ancient emperor Qingxuan entered the darkness. According to historical records, there were no strange creatures during that vigil. In fact, this statement is biased, because strange creatures appeared during that vigil. At first, strange creatures came out, but they were all killed and slaughtered by the ancient emperor Qingxuan alone.
The ancient emperor Qingxuan dates back 4.2 million years.
In those days, the number of strange creatures was unimaginable at the beginning. It was the highest number group, that is, the number reached after 12 hours.
According to the algorithm of increasing every three hours, what will be the number after twelve hours?
If there had not been the ancient emperor Qingxuan in those years, the broken wasteland would have fallen.
If Fang Xuan's words were true, it would be a dark catastrophe and a turmoil that would destroy most of civilization.
"Are you going to the dark, not just to get things?"
Yan Wu thought of what Fang Xuan would do on the night watch, and his heart trembled.
This sentence comes out.
The garden became quiet, only the cool autumn wind came slowly
……
