After the Fairy Disappeared

Chapter 375: present

  The advantages and disadvantages of this system can be seen at a glance, but the Bega Kingdom has no better way, because its territory is too vast to take care of itself—

  Kite country is not small in size. Among the known countries except sea country and lake country, its territory ranks sixth.

  Kebeka Kingdom is six times its size, the largest in the world!

  He Lingchuan has seen the territory of Bega on the sand table, it is really a spectacular piece, connecting the ocean to the north, and directly to the sea of ​​earth to the east.

  Let’s put it this way, if He Lingchuan rides a green barge from the easternmost point of Bega all the way to the west, and travels 400 miles a day, and only walks in a straight line, it will take more than 30 days to reach the westernmost point of the demon country’s territory!

  This is still ignoring the result of the mountains and rivers in the middle, there are countless deserts, swamps, lakes, and mountains, otherwise the time-consuming will be many times longer.

  This country has always been a strange existence with mixed reputations. Countless people are not optimistic about its system and its customs. After all, other countries have followed Bega, and it will be gone within a hundred or two hundred years.

   So far, it has been the focus of repeated research by courts, historians, and staff officers in various countries.

  But no matter what others say, Bega Kingdom is still there, the Demon Emperor is still there, and this huge empire can still continue to operate.

  Baoshu Kingdom's territory is much larger than the entire Fu Kingdom, but its capital is close to the south, and caravans can arrive soon after crossing the border.

  He Lingchuan is no stranger to the scenes of "coexistence of monsters and people" along the way.

  The larger the town, the weirder the architectural style. Some of them simply break through He Lingchuan's cognition of "houses", because the residents are not only humans, but also monsters.

  He has also seen the most mouse demon family go to a carpenter to customize their own house—the total area is less than five square meters, and they only need to be nailed to the outer wall of other people's houses.

   Walking into the Northern Demon Kingdom is like walking into a strange new world. Sometimes it looks chaotic, but it operates in its own order.

   This is the result of six hundred years of hard work, and it is also a spectacle that will never be seen in Yuan Country. He Lingchuan consciously opened his eyes.

  The caravan arrived at Fufeng City, the capital of Baoshu Kingdom, at night. The sky was covered with dark clouds, but the entire city was not immersed in darkness.

  Two fluorescent spores hang every 100 feet on the main road to illuminate pedestrians.

  This specialty of the Nest Swamp is bright and stable, unaffected by wind. He Lingchuan laughed when he saw it. No wonder Gan's Chamber of Commerce is so rich that it has a unique business here.

  But after the Shimen caravan returns from Lingxu City, they may take over this cash cow.

  There are not many people on the road, but the restaurants and guest houses are all lit up. If you get close, you may be drinking wine.

  After entering the city, Wu Jinsong and the two asked He Lingchuan to accompany them back to Taifu's Mansion, and the caravan went to the inn to settle down.

  While the three of them were crossing the streets and alleys, they also met a team of "Ye Xiang Lang". That is, the team that came out to collect "Ye Xiang Lang" in the middle of the night and transported them out of the city.

   These are dozens of huge butterfly mantis, also known as dung beetles. They pull carts, and each cart is loaded with a gigantic wooden barrel. The convoy collects night incense from door to door, pours them into large wooden barrels, and transports them outside the city to fertilize before dawn.

  After a while, these fertilizers can still be used in the fields.

   Regardless of Shihuan or Heishui City, the municipal government also provides this kind of service, but the monster is responsible for the collection and transportation. It is the first time He Lingchuan has met such a professional counterpart, and he is amazed.

   There are more than a dozen teams like this in Fufeng City.

  Wu Jinsong was a little embarrassed when he saw the dung beetles, so he quickly led He Lingchuan to the right path.

  Yexiang team will not appear on the main road.

  The three of them rushed to Taifu's mansion, and after a brief introduction, He Lingchuan waited in the side hall.

The area of ​​the Taifu's mansion is very large, about four times the size of Dunyu's mansion. He passed through three gardens along the way, each with a different theme. The one that impressed him the most was that there was a small waterfall inside. On both sides of the water flow are vines with exotic flowers and green ferns. The palmetto is taller than a person, and it feels like being in a rainforest here, which is completely different from the garden landscaping of Yuan Country.

  Another garden has a huge pond, and the fish in it are also surprisingly large, not koi but the belly scales are very colorful

  Li, the head and tail are eight feet long, and the mouth is so big that it seems to be able to swallow a baby.

  From the way the big fish looks at people, He Lingchuan has reason to believe that this should be a fish demon.

  He waited in the side hall for a full quarter of an hour, drank three cups of hot tea, and the Lord came.

  Fu Shacong, the Tai Tai of Baoshu Kingdom, has just turned 60 this year, but there is only a strand of silver on his sideburns, and his body is very healthy, which is less than fifty years old.

  He strode into the hall with divine light in his eyes, followed by a man in his thirties with a blank expression on his face.

  Wu Jinsong, who was always by Taifu's side, hurriedly introduced to both parties.

  It turns out that the person behind Sha Cong is the second son Sha Xinghai, the sufferer who lost his soul and soul.

   It is worth noting that Wu Jinsong introduced He Lingchuan as "He Xiao", a distant relative of the two brothers of the Shimen Chamber of Commerce.

  Sha Cong looked He Lingchuan up and down, with scrutiny in his eyes: "You sent my son's soul back, can you ask for something?"

  Just now Wu Jinsong had already reported the trip to him in general.

  He Lingchuan shook his head: "It's just on the way."

   "Okay, then return his soul to its place."

  Sha Cong stepped out of the way, and He Lingchuan then took out the soul-absorbing mirror from his arms, and the mirror surface shone on Sha Xinghai, and took two shots.

  Seeing a faint white light flying out of the mirror, circled around Sha Xinghai, as if confirming the deity, and then drilled in through his seven orifices.

  Sha Xinghai was shocked, he took a long breath, and his eyes were no longer dull.

  He gave Sha Cong a long bow: "Father, I'm back." Then he said to He Lingchuan, "Thank you, little brother He."

"Be careful next time, don't let Xiaoxiao take advantage of you again!" Sha Cong waved his hand, let Sha Xinghai retreat, and then looked at He Lingchuan, "You don't claim credit, but the credit is still there. Oh, I heard that you were in the Do you live in Fuguo?"

"yes."

   "Wu Jinsong said you are brave and resourceful, I will recommend the price to the king as Lieutenant Hong Lin, are you satisfied?"

  He Lingchuan has just arrived here, and he doesn't know what kind of position this is, so it shouldn't be too bad. He has a lot of kindness towards Sha Xinghai, and Sha Cong's remuneration should also be appropriate. If it is too meager, it is contemptuous of this kindness.

  Wu Jinsong even blinked at him repeatedly, motioning for him to take over.

  He Lingchuan thought for a while: "I still have to go to Lingxu City, let's talk about it when I come back."

  Sha Cong was not surprised: "What are you going to do?"

  「I want to see the world-famous capital of Beja, and I will take a trip to Mount Xu by the way.」

  Zhu Erniang's biggest relic is in Xushan, where the gate of the Great Return Sect is located. He Lingchuan dared to say this place name openly because he had learned from Wu Jinsong and Shi Erdang that Xushan is now one of the famous scenic spots in Lingxu City and receives a large number of tourists every day.

  Such an ancient ruin, Lingxu City is not concealed or designated as a forbidden area, showing its magnanimity.

  The hot-blooded young man He Lingchuan came here admiringly, and wanted to visit mountains and holy places, which is not surprising at all.

   "It's good to go there once, the capital is magnificent and hard to find anywhere in the world." Sha Cong said, "You can come back to be an official after you finish the capital."

  After He Lingchuan released the soul of Sha Xinghai, he put away the mirror. Seeing that he didn't refuse, Sha Cong said again: "Let me see your mirror."

  「It has recognized me as master.」

  Sha Cong smiled: "Don't worry, I won't steal from you."

  He Lingchuan took out the soul-stealing mirror.

   Sha Cong rubbed it in his hand a few times, and pondered: "It's a spiritual thing."

  With He Lingchuan by his side, the mirror would naturally not capture his soul for no reason, otherwise it would be dangerous to just look at the mirror like this.

  「Where did this mirror get the emperor liquid ointment?」

   "It doesn't know either." He Lingchuan said, "It woke up in a tree stump in the wild. The mirror slave walked for five days and nights before finding the human village. It didn't know where it was before."

  Sha Cong returned the mirror to him: "By the way, my king's 800th birthday will be in a few days. You might as well join in the fun before leaving."

  He Lingchuan nodded: "I'm going to have a look."

  「You have come from a long way, you are exhausted, go back and have a rest. I will let you

  Xu Dongdong sends you off. "

  After Sha Taifu called, Xu Dongdong walked out of the door and escorted He Lingchuan out of the mansion all the way to the inn where Shi Congshan stayed.

  Shi Congshui was overjoyed when he heard that he had managed to get an official after such a trip, and immediately wanted to serve him wine and food to celebrate.

  He Lingchuan waved his hand: "There is nothing wrong with the horoscope."

  He has a title in Yuan Country. Generally speaking, he cannot be an official in other countries until he leaves office. Even if he forcibly received the Sheji Order of the Beja Kingdom, it would not be able to use its power.

   There is only one exception to this position:

   Envoys.

  That can be taken for granted as an official in the two countries.

   "Besides, he hasn't studied my background, so why did he give me the job?"

"I heard that Bega's standard for employing people is eclectic and meritocracy. Many of the strongmen who are active in Bega's court are from outside. For example, this Sha Taifu, whose father is from Dai State, is named Tang. He is not a native of Baoshu country." Shi Congshui said with a smile, "Maybe he is just happy to see it?"

  He Lingchuan laughed: "How can there be love and hate for no reason?"

  Shi Congshui only regarded him as modest: "If you are happy in life, you have to have fun!"

  He Lingchuan drank a glass of wine with a smile, replaying the trip to Taifu's Mansion in his mind.

  Even if he has the grace to save Sha Xinghai, Taifu Sha treats him with a condescending attitude. This person has been in a high position for a long time, and there are only two leaders in the country, King Baoshu and the Prime Minister, and his reserve and arrogance have long been engraved in his bones.

  In his eyes, this kindness can be offset by a suitable reward.

  He Lingchuan didn't care about this.

  He was a three-no person with no foundation, no background, and no identity in the country of Beja, and he didn't care what others thought of him at all.

   Fufeng City was just a stop in his journey, and he would pass by in a blink of an eye.

  「Come on, drink!」

  ¥¥¥¥¥

  After He Lingchuan left, Sha Xinghai came out from the back hall again, with a look of shame on his face:

  「Father, I failed this errand.」

"No one expected that you would be attacked before you arrived in Wuze County." Sha Taifu waved his hand, "There are no marks on the armor and weapons, and the dead soldiers swallowed poison when they were captured. Hey, someone in the mansion leaked your whereabouts. "
