Chapter 24

"Ga!" Ye Kong's thin body collapsed on the bed. His eyes were closed, his lips were blue and white, and the bean sized sweat beads on his forehead rolled from behind his ears and fell on the porcelain pillow.

He didn't know that the cock had saved his life. The most serious injury to the human body is the injury to the soul of Shenzhi. Although he swallowed the soul of a fool, his soul is much stronger than that of his peers, but just now he has seriously overdrawn his soul, which has made him reach the state of oil exhaustion and light exhaustion. If it was not for this chicken crow to wake him up, I'm afraid he would be out of his wits this moment, or he would be a new vegetable.

Although he narrowly escaped his life, he was not feeling well at the moment.

Weak, very weak.

He felt that his whole body was numb and astringent, and he couldn't use any strength at all, even if he opened his eyes. With your eyes closed, you can still feel the emptiness in front of you, and all thoughts in your brain consciousness have stagnated. All pursuits, joys and sorrows, love and hate, all disappear.

With the light sunshine and the blue sky, another day has come.

Nanzhou has always been a place where the weather is very suitable for crop growth and human habitation. If it weren't for its proximity to the wilderness and its border with barbarians, it would be more prosperous here.

Nandu city is the capital of Nanzhou, and it is also the most prosperous city among the eight prefectures of Anguo, except for the national capital of Anguo.

Although the prosperity of Nandu city is politely said to come from the construction of the people in the four directions, in fact, everyone knows that it is inseparable from the credit of Ye Haoran, the supreme governor of Nanzhou. If it weren't for the harassment of barbarians led by general ye, how could it be prosperous now? You know, it was already a barren land more than ten years ago.

Ye Haoran's position as a general is entirely due to his outstanding achievements. He made great contributions to his youth. Even the current emperor's accession to the throne is also a great factor because of his military support.

However, after his accession to the throne, his Majesty was worried about his great achievements, and sent him to the side to garrison. Ye Haoran was also happy to leave the political center and play a world with a group of soldiers, so he could be a carefree general with peace of mind.

However, even if the barbarians were scattered, they were not so safe. Hundreds of miles away from Nandu City, Ye's army was stationed, and ye Wei, ye Haoran's eldest son, was stationed there.

But this morning, ye Wei came back early.

In front of the flower hall, ye Haoran, who had just finished morning exercises, put down his knife, took the towel handed over by Ye Wei, wiped his hand and asked, "Wei'er, you should be in the army at the moment, so how can you come back?"

Ye Wei said, "there are two things to come back. One thing is that there is some news in the army. The barbarians have experienced more than a decade of hard work and their strength has recovered. Recently, there has been another Chaha Khan with high aspirations. I think we will fight with him sooner or later. If we don't fight as soon as possible, he will unify the barbarian tribes in less than ten years. I'm afraid we won't be rivals then."

Ye Haoran pondered for a moment and said, "it's not urgent. I'll worry about it after I report to your majesty. What's the second thing?"

"Oh, the second thing is that I heard about the immortal Wan Xuan recently..."

"Go to the study and say." Ye Haoran hurriedly interrupted.

Military affairs can be discussed in front of the flower hall, but this second thing should be said in the study. It must be very secret.

Back yamen, study.

"Dad, will immortal Wan Xuan covet the treasure handed down by my family and don't want to return it?" Ye Wei said very carefully.

"No nonsense!" Ye Haoran roared and looked around. Then he scolded in a low voice, "be careful what you say, immortal Wan Xuan. It's a fairy, not an ordinary fairy. It's the foundation building period with great magic power. We can hear our conversation thousands of miles away!"

Listen for thousands of miles. Ye Wei was a little surprised, but in a suspicious way, "what does the foundation period mean? Listen to the literal meaning, just building the foundation, shouldn't it be so powerful?"

"Unbridled, you also talked about the immortal? No matter how basic he is, it's not something we mortals can compete with!" Ye Haoran reprimanded his son again, and then explained, "last time I heard immortal Wan Xuan say that only one person with immortal's qualification can come out of these 10000 ordinary people, and only twoorthree immortal masters in the foundation period can come out of these 1000 people with immortal's qualification. Calculate, this probability is one in ten million, isn't it powerful?"

Hearing this, ye Wei couldn't help but be moved, nodded and said, "no wonder immortals are so rare."

Probably sighing that he didn't have the possibility to be a fairy, ye Haoran sighed, leaned his back against the back of the red sandalwood chair, and said to himself slowly, "I hope that immortal Wan Xuan can understand the secrets of our Ye family baby, even if it's given to him, it's nothing."

Ye Wei stood up in surprise and hurriedly advised, "father, this is a treasure book handed down by our Ye family for many generations and collected for hundreds of years. How can we give it to others for nothing!"

"Collecting for hundreds of years is useless. It's worthless for us! It will also cause disasters!" Ye Haoran stared at his son and said, "if Immortal Wan Xuan is willing to accept it, he will owe a favor to our Ye family, which will surely protect our Ye family for a hundred years. Do you understand!"

Ye Wei is not a fool. He immediately thought of something and sat back in his chair and sighed, "we Ye family have no desire to compete for power and profit at all, Emperor... Alas, we supported him to the throne at the beginning."

Ye Haoran smiled, "do you think the emperor's accession to the throne is really because I, ye Haoran, have some troops to support him? You're wrong!"

Ye Wei has always thought the same as all the people in Nandu city. He believes that his majesty can be Emperor today because of the efforts of general Ye Haoran. At this time, he heard his father say it was not so, which made him unbelievable.

"I tell you!" Ye Haoran's voice became lower and lower, and he said to his son's ear, "in today's Cangnan continent, which country's royal family doesn't have an immortal sect behind it? In fact, the emperor is just the representative of these immortal families in the mortal world! The immortal's words are more useful than a million troops!"

Ye Wei heard this for the first time in history, and then opened his mouth with surprise, "it turned out to be so, isn't the emperor?"

"No." Ye Haoran shook his head and said, "he is not a fairy, but can better represent the interests of the fairy family."

Ye Wei really sighed this time and was full of anxiety about the future. Originally, he thought that as long as he firmly grasped the military power of the south, the emperor would not dare to move the Ye family. Now it seems that the emperor can mobilize immortals to kill any one of his Ye family at any time.

Seeing his son's decadence, ye Haoran comforted, "you don't have to be too nervous. The immortal family doesn't ask us about mortals. Unless it's absolutely necessary, it won't come forward to help your majesty."

Ye Wei thought about it and looked up and said, "what if we join a Xiuxian sect?"

Speaking of Ye Haoran's heart, hehe laughed, "that's why I hope immortal Wan Xuan can owe us the favor of the Ye family. You know, these immortal families are not the ones you want to join. Although the Wan family is not as big as the sect behind your majesty, it is also a not small immortal family. If you can connect..."

Ye Haoran narrowed his eyes and obviously began to think about beautiful things.

But ye Wei said very shamefully, "but the immortal can't understand it? You know, our Ye family has got this thing for hundreds of years, and countless ancestors want to study the secret of cultivating immortality from it, but they all return in vain."

Ye Haoran was also depressed when he said, "there's no way, but I still have a backhand."

"Oh?" Ye Wei's eyes lit up as soon as he heard it.

"Father, I don't know what you just said..." Ye Wei asked carefully. In fact, he also heard the wind, otherwise he would rush back from the border camp overnight?

Ye Haoran drank a cup of tea and sold it for a while, and then he said proudly, "my father has long thought that it's better to ask for oneself than others. Even if Immortal Wan Xuan wishes to protect the Ye family, it's not very convenient. If we Ye family... We also have an immortal..."

Ye Wei said, "at least your Majesty must consider it before moving us."

"Yes!" Ye Haoran slapped the table and said with a smile, "when immortal Ye Xuan came to borrow the treasure book at home five years ago, I wanted to ask him to accept two descendants of the Ye family as disciples, but when I first met him, I made a request, which must be unpleasant to the immortal, so I didn't say it. This time when the immortal came, no matter whether the treasure book was helpful to him or not, my father would also take this opportunity to make a request to worship."
