Chapter 2196 Fate plays tricks on people
Autumn in Bailie is never harsh, and these days it has been so warm and humid that it feels like spring.
The capital was full of flowers and green willows, and the whole city was soaked in a warm breeze, which was in stark contrast to the frost and coldness of the capital of Mou State.
But at this moment, the entire capital was under martial law, with a guard post every five steps, and even flies flying into the city had to be checked to see if they were male or female first.
The first meeting between the two emperors was held at the bank of Zhaoxi River in the capital of Bailie.
The meeting place was agreed to be in Cangyan’s country, and it was Emperor Mou who first proposed it, showing his calmness and confidence.
To this end, Bai Lie also carried out a surprise renovation of a restaurant near Zhaoxi River.
At the hour of Chen, Emperor Mou arrived riding on the warm sunshine, followed by You Huan and his vast army.
Emperor Jiuyou had been waiting for a long time. He walked out of the restaurant and strode to greet them. Behind him were Du Shan, Lu Qiuwei, Qiu Hu and other civil and military officials.
The two sides walked towards each other, and they could feel each other's enthusiasm even though they were more than ten feet apart, as if the two countries had always been close and there had never been a rift between them.
One said: "I have been looking forward to it. It is true that seeing is believing!"
Another said: "Heroes emerge from youth. The ancients were not deceiving us!"
After saying that, everyone laughed.
He Lingchuan stepped aside and said, "Please!"
The Creekside Restaurant actually consists of one main building and three auxiliary buildings.
The two emperors went up to the third floor of the main building, while officials and attendants were waiting on each floor and in the auxiliary buildings, drinking tea and chatting.
The restaurant is a full fifty-five feet away from the stream. This distance is to prevent assassins from lurking in the stream, so as to avoid a recurrence of Situ Yu's tragedy.
Of course, Emperor Jiuyou is very powerful, so it is not easy to plot against him; as for Emperor Mou...
All I can say is that high-standard security is still necessary.
The two emperors went up to the building and leaned on the railing, seeing the golden light sparkling.
During the flood season, the surface of Zhaoxi River will expand and directly become Zhaohe River.
The two stood side by side, and Emperor Mou looked at the river with a distant gaze: "This Zhaoxi River originates from the Qiyun River in my Mou country. The river is surging, and gradually branches out, and finally it becomes a trickle and reaches Bailie."
He Lingchuan smiled and said, "Although it is a winding stream, it never dries up. It eventually flows through hundreds of columns and merges into my Qingyan Lake. It becomes vast and high again, and finally becomes the right path!"
As soon as they met, the two of them exchanged a witticism.
When Emperor Mou mentioned the past, He Lingchuan responded with the current situation.
Then, they smiled at each other.
Emperor Mou was wearing a tall hat, a wide belt, and a purple and gold robe today. His appearance was very unfamiliar to He Lingchuan.
But when he opened his mouth, He Lingchuan felt like he was meeting an old friend.
Emperor Mou suppressed his smile and sighed softly, "You have accomplished your great cause now. Well, it would have been better if you had appeared earlier."
If someone else hears this sentence, it is easy to have misunderstanding.
What does it mean that he hopes He Lingchuan will show up earlier so that the threat can be nipped in the bud?
But He Lingchuan could hear his sigh and regret.
Emperor Mou really regretted that he was not able to recruit He Lingchuan to work for him before he became successful on his own.
After He Lingchuan made a scene in the Heavenly Palace, he came to the rear of the State of Mou to escape Beijia's pursuit. At that time, Wang Xingyi invited him on behalf of the State of Mou, but He Lingchuan declined.
Emperor Mou noticed this person at the time and was also fond of talent, but he didn't take it too seriously. If He Lingchuan didn't want to come, then he didn't have to come. After all, Lingshan and Mou State were full of talents, so how special could this one be?
If some means had been used at that time to bring He Lingchuan into the court of Mou State, would Mou State be much more relaxed today?
"It's not too late now." He Lingchuan said leisurely, "It's never too late to work together to fight against the demons."
As long as the goals are the same, we can be partners even if we are not superiors or subordinates.
He also reiterated the natural basis for cooperation between the two countries:
Fight against the demons.
Only because they have a common powerful enemy can Cangyan and Mou Guo become close comrades-in-arms.
Moudi looked at him and said, "I am curious about something. Please help me solve it."
"Please say."
"Yuan Country, Panlong City, and you, every owner of the Dafang Pot, will firmly oppose the Heavenly Demon." Emperor Mou said slowly, "Why is this?"
Not to mention ordinary people, even most immortal sects and Taoist sects would not regard the devil as their ultimate enemy.
Every person and every force living in this corrupt world has too many and too specific things to worry about and problems to face.
People are always trapped by the troubles of the moment. The devil is ethereal and illusory, and can't even be ranked.
To some extent, He Lingchuan's resistance to the devil is as strange as ordinary people's resentment towards God.
But for Emperor Mou, the answer that He Lingchuan is about to give is too important, as it will determine Mou State's policy towards Cang Yan.
Jiuyou tried to fight against the demon in order to bring himself closer to Lingshan and Mouguo, but there is no love, hate or firmness in the world without reason.
He must know why Jiuyou is so determined to fight against the demon.
"The Dafang Pot has never had an owner, and no one is worthy of truly owning it." He Lingchuan corrected first, and then said, "Its will is vast and boundless, and it will not clearly tell me what to embrace or what to oppose."
"Oh? Then what are you so determined about?"
Looking back on his own mental journey, He Lingchuan found it difficult to say when he made such a decision.
It was a natural result that came about step by step after going through all the hardships and obstacles and getting used to working hard.
Before he knew it, he had walked onto this path.
"To be honest, it was for my own sake at first. I was the body that Narakutian had chosen for me, and I also held the secret of the Dafang Pot. I was worried about Narakutian's coming, and I was also afraid that there would be no place for me in the world. So I felt that only by strengthening myself could I protect myself."
When he came into this world, he seemed to be the son of a minor official with no worries about food and clothing, but in fact, he could be sacrificed to the gods by his father at any time.
Once his relationship with Dafanghu is exposed, it will be enough for Beiga to kill him.
If he doesn't want to die, he can only work hard to improve and move forward.
This kind of compulsion is the initial motivation.
Moudi could understand this situation:
"and then?"
"Then I left Beiga and came to Yangshan Islands, thinking that the world is so big, I could build a safe haven for myself and my friends." He Lingchuan smiled at his former naivety, "Facts have proved that it is impossible. The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop. Even if Yangshan Islands is prosperously managed by me, I can't have a moment of peace in my heart. Xin Jun is also very clear about the reason."
Emperor Mou smiled and understood.
Not long after He Lingchuan bought the Yangshan Islands, he was threatened by National Master Shuangye. Then, National Master Wang Xingyi passed by Yangshan and gave him some eye drops.
The two big countries, Beiga and Mou, successively dealt He Lingchuan a blow, waking him up from his vision of paradise.
For He Lingchuan to become the Nine Nether Emperor today, Mou State has made a lot of contributions.
It’s strange, why is the automatic update stuck?
