The Heavens: A Qing, the Yue Girl at the beginning

When the carp released by the fisherman jumped into the water, it seemed to be surrounded by an invisible force. Its body suddenly began to twist, its scales shone with golden light, and gradually became more vivid. Its body continued to expand, its back began to bulge, and its fins changed. It must be as sharp as a blade.

As the fish's body continued to twist, its size expanded from a few inches to more than ten feet, and its tail began to become more slender, like a gorgeous ribbon dancing in the water, making it swim faster and faster. Coming faster and faster, diving towards the depths of the waterway.

Across dozens of feet of water, he turned around and looked into the deep eyes of the fisherman. The chilong that turned into a carp accelerated further in the deep water and swam towards the branch of the waterway leading to Wuyun Gate. In an instant, The golden light shone everywhere, and the surrounding river water was like a torn scroll, rolling to make way for it.

Although such strange changes occurred in the depths of the waterway, which should have caused huge waves, when the fisherman's small boat drove by, the water surface remained as calm as a mirror, as if nothing had happened.

"Outside Wuyun Gate, in the waters north of Lingbo Bridge, there is a special underground waterway that leads directly to the bottom of Zhenze Lake a hundred thousand miles away. It was originally the entrance to the ruins left by the Yu Dynasty... This little Chi, who was born not long ago, is Let it change its target and rush over to test it out."

Generally speaking, at the stage of "Six Qi", although the power of spiritual beasts and monsters is comparable to practitioners of the same level, their combat power is much weaker due to their backward inheritance and insufficient spiritual cultivation.

Even those who are mediocre, do not have profound inheritance, have not yet reached the highest level of cultivation, and are at the lowest level of "lower six qi" realm cultivators, unless they have awakened powerful bloodline magical powers, it will be difficult for many non-human races to defeat them. .

However, considering that many spiritual beasts are more likely to break through due to their strong bloodline, the proportion of strong ones being born is much higher, which can be considered a balance.

However, just as the "fisherman" of the previous generation was the best at fishing in the world, the "fisherman" of this generation is the best at raising fish in the world. The combination of the two has created a series of miracles that transcend common sense. .

……

"The next stopping point is Lingsi Bridge in the southwest of Lingwen Garden. There is still about a hundred and twenty miles of water, and the estimated time of arrival is already at night. While we are stopping at the small port in the southeast of Fuyangli, there is demand. Passengers can also disembark and buy some food.”

When the boat Zhao Qing was riding arrived at the dock area in the southeast corner of Fuyangli, which was the destination of her trip, Zhu Fa did not feel nervous about the upcoming competition, and his tone naturally reminded some Necessary matters, and then he pointed to the Wu merchants and the foreign Yue people and said:

"As for the tourists who are coming to Fuyang, you can also join in the fun at the gambling venue where I and I are fighting, and help cheer up. If we win the bouquet of pearls, you will not be missing out."

Fuyangli is adjacent to the water gate "Dongguomen" in the east direction of Kuaiji City. To the south is the intersection of the city's water network and external waterways. It can be regarded as the starting point of the Dongshan Yin Waterway. This area is second only to the transportation hub around Lingbo Bridge. .

Looking out from the boat, we can see the harbor here is full of masts and sails, and more than a hundred large and small piers are full of various types of ships. By rough calculation, there should be as many as two to three thousand ships.Although many ships were diverted to the Lingboqiao port area outside the city, there were still thousands of shops doing water transport business.

Although Fuyangli is called a "li" because it is located within the city of Kuaiji, no matter how you look at it, it is no different from a large town. Due to the large number of foreigners, business is prosperous and significant. Exceeding the city average.

Perhaps due to the need for identification of business activities, or perhaps because of preferential treatment for outsiders, compared to the core area of ​​Kuaiji City, the formation here suppresses the mental perception of high-level cultivators much less, allowing their breath to flow naturally. Show out.

Therefore, not long after arriving in Fuyangli, Zhao Qing sensed the majestic aura and Taoist spirit of the nineteen paths that had reached the "six qi" realm, as well as the other six paths that were slightly inferior and should represent divine weapons in a fully awakened state. She was a little surprised by the number of experts here.

Not intending to watch the competition between Zhu Fa and the foreigners, Zhao Qing went straight off the boat and walked around the dock area for a few times. As it was getting late, he naturally came to the main stream where thousands of branch waterways intersect. , a location connected to the Shanyin Waterway outside the city.

Compared with the previous waterway, which was only 50 to [-] feet wide, this water area gives people a feeling of vastness and sparkling waves. In addition to ordinary small and medium-sized ships, there are also majestic ships with a displacement of more than [-] stone moored. A giant ship can be called a floating fortress on the water.

Unlike the vast majority of small ships that only travel around the Shanhui Plain, these truly giant ships that have a round trip of tens of thousands of miles, or even hundreds of thousands of miles, are each equipped with unimaginable majestic power, and A large escort of accompanying guards;

When the ships of all levels under this kind of giant ship are fully equipped, they can be equipped with at least 3 to [-] crew members. Added together, the total price is at least hundreds of thousands of gold levels, embodying the efforts and skills of countless craftsmen. , is simply not an area that any small or medium-sized force can get involved in.

Judging from the fact that it is not a war ship, but an armed merchant ship, we can get a glimpse of the huge profits that can be obtained from transnational commerce, and see the increasingly prosperous cross-border commerce.

The largest ship among them has a displacement of more than 240 million stones, with a total length of 48 feet and a width of about [-] feet. Just being parked there makes everything around it look dwarfed. , is already a city floating on the sea.

Even if Vietnam is one of the four countries with the strongest shipbuilding industry in the world, such huge ships are extremely rare and will basically only dock at coastal harbors instead of sailing into inland cities. Makes you think about the reason why it appears here.

In fact, three of the 25 auras that Zhao Qing had just sensed originated from this giant ship parked here.

"Maybe it's an envoy ship sent by a certain country to Vietnam? It's definitely not from Wu State. Judging from the style, it doesn't look like Chu State either... maybe it's a sea ship from Qi State?"

No matter which country this repatriation ship comes from, the exchanges between outsiders after that may cause complex changes. It may be just a small matter for a country, but for an individual, it is likely to have far-reaching consequences. Influence.

Looking at the complex and exquisite runes carved on the hull of this giant ship, as well as the front end of the broken crossbow machine that was vaguely visible from the dark hole, Zhao Qing was thoughtful, but he only paused for a moment. Then he set his sights elsewhere.

……

Looking out from the opening of Guo Shuimen in the east of Kuaiji City, just on the edge of Shanyin Waterway, you can see a pond embankment that extends almost straight to infinity, like a winding dragon lying on the earth. The swamp on the left is separated from the paddy field on the right.

This is the Shanyin Land Road that runs parallel to the Shanyin Waterway. It is more than [-] feet wide and stretches for [-] miles. It goes straight to the "Liantang" Dayi, the smelting base of the Yue Kingdom. It cooperates with the Shanyin Waterway and acts as a barrier. The sea tide plays an important role in storing water and draining water from the Fuzhong pond.

At this moment, the rain is gradually decreasing, the sun is setting in the west, the afterglow is like gold, and the entire sky is rendered into a golden color.Through the glow of the setting sun, you can see the hazy outline of the pond embankment in the rain, which looks even more majestic under the reflection of the setting sun.

It was at this time that a black mass suddenly appeared on the left side of the huge water gate, which was dim because it was in the shadow of the city wall. It quickly grew in size and became clear. It was a ship no less big than the previous ordinary giant ship. It is a large and luxurious ship, with the logo of the Yue royal family on the bow.

Although it was less than one-tenth the size of the ship that dispatched the Vietnamese envoys, when this huge ship, which was like a giant sword, sailed to the Fuyangli area, it was accompanied by a sharp sword that spread around the ship. Suddenly, countless busy people in the port sensed the arrival of the big shot.

For a moment, tens of thousands of people raised their heads and looked at the deck of the giant ship like Zhao Qing. They did not find anything because the ship's side was too high. On the contrary, they all opened their eyes wide, and then everyone looked at the deck. Most of them turned their heads away and didn't dare to look again.

Just at the edge of the bow deck, a stunning beauty wearing a blood-red dress suddenly appeared. She was dazzling and scorching like fire. The tail of the dress was floating behind her, like red clouds filling the sky. Her slender figure became even more slender and breathtakingly beautiful.I saw that her left hand was holding a green and energetic wind-chasing horse, and her right hand was waving a piece of gold foil paper. If it were another person, her movements would definitely destroy her temperament, but on her body , but naturally presents another kind of wanton beauty.

In an instant, Zhao Qing recognized the other party's identity and knew that she was Zheng Dan, whom he had not seen for some time. He also saw that Zheng Dan's beauty had been greatly improved after entering the Beauty Palace. , just a simple appearance made the entire port become brighter.

At the beginning, Zheng Dan's beauty had already reached the limit of ordinary life, and her appearance and figure had reached an absolutely flawless state. How could she improve it further? Before seeing her this time, Zhao Qing had no way of imagining it. come out.

However, now, Zhao Qing finally understands that by building on such beauty, he will reach an unprecedented level: from the greatest beauty a person can have to one that can accommodate the endless beauty in the world.

Generally speaking, two stunning beauties together are more beautiful than one stunning beauty. Two different beauties are more valuable to appreciate than one. This is a very simple truth. Otherwise, many kings would not You will want to have three thousand beauties instead of doting on one person.

The reason why Zheng Dan was able to further improve upon the limits of the mundane is precisely because she made a huge breakthrough in the types and quantity of "beauty". She is compatible with thousands of beauties and can be admired never again. And it projects "beauty" to the nearby area like the sun shining on the earth.

However, in this state, because ordinary people cannot receive too much information about "beauty" in a short period of time, they will only feel that this "brightness" is too dazzling, making people unable to see any color, as if she is completely It is made up of dazzling brilliance.

Because it is too dazzling, it looks a bit scorching.

The vast majority of people cannot look directly at the sun, or they can only look directly at the sun that has become a tiny star hundreds of millions of miles away. Only a very small number of practitioners are qualified to truly see the brilliance of the sun and appreciate the hidden meanings within it. The true meaning of.

In a sense, this can also be regarded as an alternative state of "Zhiyang Wuji". It has almost the same effect as that of causing the vitality of heaven and earth to continuously spurt outward, reflecting the similarities between various "Tao" paths. .

……

In the harbor area of ​​​​Fuyangli, Zheng Dan appeared on this extremely luxurious ship. It was not a coincidence, but she also accepted the invitation from Weiyu, and together with several sisters from the Beauty Palace, she was in the special guard. Came from outside the city under escort.

As for the reason why Zheng Dan waved the gold foil, Zhao Qing also clearly understood that it was to use the secret of that special skill that only she and she knew together to attract the attention of herself who was probably also here but far away. Pay attention to achieve the purpose of meeting in advance.

In the sky, countless raindrops fell like fine glass jade beads. They danced in the air, crystal clear, and exuded a faint silver light.

However, when these raindrops approached Zhao Qing's head, they underwent strange changes.Around her body, a faint cold air loomed, and as soon as the falling raindrops touched this cold air, they were instantly frozen.

They traced beautiful trajectories in the air, and then landed accurately in Zhao Qing's hands, turning into droplets of ink-colored black ice, like poetry solidified by the years, as delicate as silk, cold and hard, accumulating bit by bit. Together, they gradually formed a unique umbrella.

The umbrella cover is not an ordinary fabric, but a layer of transparent black ice, which is transformed from the raindrops falling from the sky. The stars on the black ice are shining like a frozen Milky Way, and those pearl-like raindrops are the stars in it.

Different from the ordinary blue-green black ice, this dark-colored black ice is the exotic black ice that Zhao Qing previously discovered on Neptune. The original ice quality should be in a superionic state with a melting point of two to three thousand degrees and a density of It is more than five times that of Chang Bing, and is close to the level of Xuan Tie in strength.

Being able to transform ordinary rainwater into this special high-strength black ice is a quite significant breakthrough, giving her the ability to "mass-produce" spiritual materials, both in combat and in other aspects. There are many new methods.

Upon closer inspection, the skeleton of this black ice umbrella is actually made up of dozens of slender ice swords, which can be separated and turned into separate black ice flying swords at any time, making up for Zhao Qing's current situation that Cao Zijian has not been awakened. , a slightly inadequate combat method.

I saw the Xuanbing umbrella spinning gently in the rain, emitting a faint cold light, making her figure looming in the shadow of the umbrella. The Xuanbing on the umbrella was like a line of solidified raindrops, crossing diagonally, reflecting Zhao Qing's elegant and indifferent expression. Appearance.

The raindrops fell on the Xuanbing umbrella, making a crisp sound, like a piece of heavenly music, echoing in the rain, and like a mysterious dream, isolating her from the outside world.

In an instant, Zhao Qing seemed to have melted into the spring rain, without attracting the attention of the surrounding people. However, he deliberately used the ice edges of the Xuanbing Umbrella to gather and project a quiet cold light, which extended diagonally upward to the green horse he was riding. Zheng Dan, who was riding a horse, marked his location for her alone.

Soon, he followed the cold light and saw Zhao Qing holding an ink umbrella. Zheng Dan couldn't help but feel happy. Regardless of the fact that the giant ship docking was still thirty or forty feet away from the dock, he put away the gold foil, patted it and sat down. The horse jumped up from the edge of the deck.

The cultivation level of this wind-chasing horse was obviously very high. With just one leap, it crossed a distance of more than a hundred feet and landed heavily on the top of a stone wall beside the pier. It headed towards Zhao Qing like lightning. Running in the direction.

After galloping for more than ten miles in the blink of an eye, Zheng Dan also entered the process of slowing down his horse and called out: "Long time no see, Ah Qing! How have you been lately?"

Then, she saw Zhao Qing's slightly furrowed brows, and couldn't help but feel puzzled and shocked.

Even if he understood the origin of the beauty of Zhuomu and vaguely guessed the principle that allowed Zheng Dan to further improve, it was still difficult for Zhao Qing to imagine how much money King Gou Jian of Yue spent in order to achieve such a "beautifying" effect for the beauties in the Palace of Beauty. How many resources are used and what resources are consumed.

It can be seen from the fact that when Zheng Dan and others travel, they are accompanied by a giant ship costing hundreds of thousands of gold, and they also have a wind-chasing horse as a mount, which is hard to buy for ten thousand gold.

The higher the price paid for this, the higher the expectations for the ultimate outcome of this honey trap will be, and the more difficult it will be to stop it.If she wants to stop the implementation of the "honey trap" through peaceful negotiation in the future, it will undoubtedly be more troublesome.

But what made Zhao Qing really show her dissatisfaction was not because of this event in the future that was still far away from the present. It was because she felt Zheng Dan's dazzling beauty at a closer distance and she couldn't help but doubt in her heart. There is a high probability that this is not an improvement without hidden dangers.

If she expected it to be true, the King of Yue recently ordered the newly built Beauty Palace, located northeast of Lingbo Bridge outside the city. Its area is said to be half the size of Fuyang Li, and it is only for eight people including Zheng Dan and Xi Shi who were eventually selected. The beautiful place where the beautiful people live is really too vast and empty.

Perhaps, in the original royal order to recruit beauties from all over the country, a large number of those who were not selected did not return to their hometowns, but temporarily lived in the Beauty Palace, and used special means to let the eight beauties merge with the beauty of these people?
