Chapter 88, Conspiracy to Lingnan
As kings and princes walked all over the ground, the world became more and more chaotic. Three days a small battle, five days a big battle, and the whole world was full of war.
Li Mu, the southwest king, was not idle either. He fought a battle with the four princes of Lingnan, Dan, Wu and Yue, who were similar.
It’s just that they are all temptations. After all, everyone has many enemies, and they all have their own concerns and cannot expand in one direction with all their might.
When fighting occasionally, it is not about wanting to destroy the other party at once, but just routinely dragging the opponent down and preventing the competitor from continuing to expand.
When Li Mu met four big gangsters, he also felt a headache. It was okay to talk to the previous family alone, but he could also plan to fight against the other two. He did not have such a solid family background as one against four.
The strategy of getting along with far and near is necessary to play. But this thing is completely unreliable. There is only one winner in fighting for dragons in troubled times, and whoever you want to form an alliance will end up being a mess.
On the surface, Li Mu's only ally is Li Xuan, the King of Liang in the Northwest. He occupies the five states in the northwest, and his strength on the surface can rank among the top five in the world.
Both of them are Qianlong supported by Li family, and they are divided into one south and one north. There will be no core conflicts of interest in the short term, so it is natural to form an alliance.
Unfortunately, this is just a nominal ally, a plastic sisterhood. Once there is an opportunity to take advantage of, no one will be lenient.
At this point in the troubled times, all the princes are supported by old and large forces. Either aristocratic families or sects, grassroots have been reshuffled.
The great reshuffle that humanity wants has not happened. It takes time to cultivate strong people. The extraordinary power is in the hands of the aristocratic family and the sects, so this game is destined. Only forces supported by them are qualified to participate.
The literary way, which was planned by humanity, did not shine in troubled times.
On the one hand, the monopoly of knowledge by aristocratic families blocked the popularization of literature and Taoism; on the other hand, it was because of the decline of humanity, so there was not so much power to lend them.
Li Mu did not interfere in the spread of the new literary system and was completely letting himself go. Unfortunately, his cheap ninth brother, who spread his cultivation methods, became silent.
Poems are not easy to copy. Many of the original classic poems, because historical allusions are not matched, have become the most common people!
Compared with the civilizations of five thousand years in the previous life, the civilization in this world can be traced back to tens of millions of years ago. How could such a long time be without excellent writing works?
Not to mention the distance, many literary masterpieces were born in the past ten thousand years of Everbright Zhou. The works copied by Li Fan are indeed talented in everyone's minds, but they are not astonishing as everyone.
After all, this world is a cultivator civilization. Among the high-level warriors/monks, there are also alternatives who study poetry and prose. With their long life span, they have become masters.
It is simply impossible to try to conquer one area to practice civilization with some poems in memory.
Li Mu witnessed with his own eyes that his cheap ninth brother was blushed by a group of old scholars. There was no way, the civilizational foundation left by this world was too solid, and mainstream literary works were all related to cultivation.
Articles such as romance, debauchery, and family and country feelings are not recognized by mainstream society at all.
If you want to create it yourself, you have to be compared with the classics of the times. Who made the name of the "reincarnated saint" so big that it invisibly raised everyone's expectations?
It’s a good time to show off, and then the crematorium is not so easy to pretend. If you come into contact with it, you will still be exposed.
In order to maintain its hard-won reputation, his cheap brother Jiu has reduced the exchanges among literati and fellow scholars in recent years, and has turned his focus to the officialdom.
Although his abilities are not very good, he cannot resist the protagonist's luck. He is still very good at being in the position of commander of the Ghost Sect.
Of course, at the cost, there are many people who offend it. But this is all a small problem. Li Mu, the excellent tool man, has always taken good care of him.
After all, in this era, there are not many people who dare to fight against the aristocratic families head-on. Only such time travelers who have no hierarchy concepts dare to take ruthless measures against the aristocratic families.
Time travelers are already bold and happen to meet the boss who is so kind. You can imagine what kind of life the local families in the southwest are living.
It’s not that no one makes trouble, these guys are not very lucky, and usually they can’t stand the sun the next day and are killed by evil demons.
There is no doubt that Li Fan took the blame. There was no omission in other places. But when these guys were robbed, the Ghost Sword was one step late every time, and it was impossible to say anything.
In fact, Li Fan has investigated more than once. Unfortunately, he returned empty-handed every time and gradually got used to it.
After all, the unlucky ones are the enemies. It’s all over the motions, and only fools will think of avenging them.
It is precisely because of the additional tool to attract hatred that Li Mu was able to hide behind the scenes and be the mastermind. It can be said that Li Fan made great contributions to the stability of the southwest region.
Looking at the map on the wall and looking at the territory of the four neighbors, King Lingnan, King Dan, King Wu and King Yue, Li Mu's frown gradually stretched.
The strength of all princes can actually be seen from the king's title. Everyone knows that the single-character king is more noble, and the two characters on the title are obviously worse.
But there is no way. The king's name is not randomly selected, and it must be as consistent as possible with one's own energy.
The most commonly used king name is the place name, or the ancient country name that once existed in the local area, so as to match the local dragon energy.
For example: This is how Li Mu's Southwest King came from.
There are no high-end ancient countries in the southwest. If you want to get the support of dragon energy to the maximum extent, you can only choose the place name as the king's name.
One king's name can tell the difference in the local heritage. The four neighbors around, the unlucky child of the King of Lingnan, are similar to Li Mu's situation.
The territory was only developed during the Great Zhou Empire. There was no high-end ancient country, so it could only use the place name as the king's name.
Compared with the other three, the King of Lingnan is a perfect soft persimmon. The only trouble is the supporter behind the scenes - Qingyun Immortal Sect.
The battle for dragons in troubled times begins, who knows whether these guys will abide by the rules? If there is a Yang Shen cultivator intervenes, it will be difficult to operate.
Now Li Mu is particularly disliked when he sees the ancient world. He has been soliciting so long, but there is no movement at all. He is simply a reckless emperor of the ages.
As he had no choice but to go on the battle himself and let his Yin soldiers go over and cause trouble. The open conspiracy that he had clearly agreed was now played into a conspiracy, and Li Mu was also very helpless.
...
"Prime Minister, what's going on with the King of Lingnan?"
Zhou Rui, the prime minister in the lower left, replied after hearing the voice: "Report to the king, the ghost realm in the territory of the Lingnan King suddenly rioted, and even the famous Lingnan mountain soldiers suffered heavy losses from ghost disasters.
According to the news from the spy, two Yang Shen cultivators were ambushed by powerful ghosts in Guangnanzhou a few days ago and suffered severe damage.
It is said that Qingyun Immortal Sect was furious and invited several powerful Yang Shen people from the overseas Immortal Sect Alliance to prepare to clear the ghosts in the Lingnan area."
When Li Mu heard that "the Yang Shen Cultivator suffered heavy damage", he lit up. This was rare good news.
The Yangshen Immortal Cultivator is not Dabaicai, and there will be no more in any immortal sect. The two Yangshen Immortal Cultivators suffered heavy damage, which means that the strength of the Qingyun Immortal Sect has dropped to a low point in a short period of time.
The Overseas Immortal Sect Alliance is not a solid piece. The Qingyun Immortal Sect is just one of them and cannot represent the entire alliance.
In essence, the alliances between major immortal sects were just to protect themselves. The Great Zhou Empire in the past was too awesome, and they had to join forces if they were killed so far away from home.
Now that the Great Zhou Empire is gone, the pressure on foreign enemies no longer exists, and the original alliance has also changed.
After all, overseas resources are limited. In the past years, there have been many conflicts within the major immortal sects.
Now participating in the battle for dragons in troubled times is essentially to seize cultivation resources. It involves interests, but it is not easy for allies to use.
For their own interests, the major immortal sects have supported Qianlong, trying to maximize their interests.
Perhaps it was because I was so hungry in the past, compared to the aristocratic families participating in the game, the food appearance of these immortal sects is not very good-looking.
Rather than saying that they are in the Dragon Fu Court, they are here to make money. As far as Li Mu knows, these immortal sects receive large amounts of cultivation materials from Qianlongs they support every year.
In fact, there are many overseas immortal sects who have found him, but unfortunately Li Mu doesn't take that trick at all.
When raising pigs, they will be fattened before they are killed. If there is a trick of dividing the meat first? He has already been playing the trick of making money from nothing.
Unless there is no way, and there is no support from the big forces behind us, few princes are willing to get involved with these immortal sects.
Eating hard also means that the interests are bound to be deeply bound. The Qianlong who touches their support is touching their money bags.
Cutting off people's money is like killing parents.
Li Mu was also timid with such a big grudge. Even if he was not afraid of these guys, his subordinates were afraid!
If there is a shameless cultivator of the Yang God who comes to his territory every now and then fights guerrilla warfare, it will be a big trouble.
These guys may not have enough success, but they will definitely be able to fail. As a last resort, Li Mu could only lead the boss of the Gu Dadi, to break the deadlock.
I thought the plan failed, so I was going to be beaten up in person, but I didn't expect that the ancient emperor would still move.
Although only a few ghost emperors were involved, this was enough to attract the attention of all parties. With this incident, it would be nothing to do if you do some small moves by yourself.
After taking a look at the map, Li Mu said straight to the point: "You guys are trying to capture Lingnan alone. I wonder what tricks do you have?"
Taking advantage of your illness, you will kill you. At present, the high-end power of Qingyun Immortal Sect is damaged, and the support it can provide to the King of Lingnan is obviously at its lowest point.
Other major forces may be able to join forces with them to deal with the ancient world, but will not help the Lingnan King they helped. These are completely two concepts, and no major forces would sacrifice themselves so much.
"King, the King of Lingnan is able to occupy the seven states of Lingnan because of that mountain soldier. Now the main force has suffered heavy damage and will definitely not be able to recover in a short period of time.
The situation in Lingnan is now complicated, with ghosts, overseas immortal sects and other forces converging together. It is better to wait until they fight before coming out to clean up the mess.
King Yue has been active a little too much recently. He provoked conflicts every few days. It would be better to teach him a lesson first, just to paralyze the King of Lingnan first."
General Li Liang, the left, spoke up and suggested.
No one is willing to be affected by the fish in the pond. If the Ghost Emperor in Lingnan has not left yet, then once he collides with the strong men of the overseas Immortal Sect, it is destined to be a bloody storm.
