Chapter 1 Let's go after a full stomach!
West Pole Coast, small town road...
After experiencing the twists of time and space, Zhao Qiankun returned to the main world, to the place where he met the God of Martial Arts and was loaded into the sea and cave heaven.
However, this place is not on the ground, but at an altitude of hundreds or ten meters.
"Ahhhhhh... thump!" Zhao Qiankun fell from the air, smashing the ground to tremble. He happened to land in front of a caravan, which scared the leader, and the bodyguards behind him also pulled out their weapons to warn him. But when he looked up, the surroundings were empty and clear, why did he get up for no reason?
"My friend, are you okay?" The leader of the caravan plucked up the courage to walk over, touched Zhao Qiankun, who had fallen into a horse with the back of the knife, and asked tentatively.
"Puff!" Zhao Qiankun raised his head suddenly and spit out a mouthful of loess, scaring the leader to stumble and retreat.
Zhao Qiankun got up, patted the dust on his body, and looked up and saw the caravans with a look of alert: "What is the day today?"
The caravan was stunned: "March 27th..."
"Which day is the emperor's wedding?"
"Uh...the eighth day of April..."
"It's good, it's okay..." Zhao Qiankun breathed a sigh of relief. It was almost the same date as the one he recorded in the Haina Cave Heaven. There were more than ten days left, so he should be able to catch up...
"By the way, how far is this place from the imperial city?" Zhao Qiankun asked again.
"This...is about seven thousand miles..."
"So big?" Zhao Qiankun was stunned for a moment. He had seen the map of the Great Zhou. The capital of the Emperor should be in the hinterland of the mainland, and it was a bit northwest. Looking at the map, it was not very far from the West Pole Coast. Unexpectedly, there were more than 3,000 kilometers. Isn't that the entire Great Zhou, with a range of tens of thousands of kilometers, and the area of a country would soon catch up with Asia in his previous life?
However, the human and animal power in this world is not comparable to that in the previous life. Such a flat official road has been built. It is estimated that from here to the imperial capital, you can arrive in about a month...
"My friend, are you planning to go to the imperial capital to attend the ceremony?" Seeing Zhao Qiankun in deep thought, the caravan leader asked, "If you are anxious to go to the imperial capital, I recommend you to go to Xiling Pass. Not far from the customs after leaving the customs, Hongjiang will be there. Then, you can go down the river with a fast boat day and night, and you can travel 800 miles a day. You should be able to get to the vicinity of the imperial capital for more than ten days, but whether you can catch up with the celebration depends on luck..."
"Thank you..." Zhao Qiankun bowed to the leader of the caravan and smiled: "If I arrived in time, the Great Zhou royal family will remember your good things!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the town.
"Thank me for the royal family?" The caravan leader was stunned. Seeing that the boy was dressed simply, he didn't look like a rich man, and he had such a great face?
When he was in the Haina Cave Heaven, he didn't know when he would come out, so Zhao Qiankun was naturally anxious. Now that he had come out, he was too late to confirm the time, so he was not in a hurry.
It may be a bit difficult for ordinary people to arrive at the imperial capital in twelve days, but for him, as long as the power of Dapeng is released, as long as he is willing to give up his flesh and blood, he will not have to work hard to travel thousands of miles a day!
However, even if you buy a map now and fly all the way to the imperial capital? I have been faced with Xue Lian three times before, and was beaten and squatted for ten days. It seems that this girl is determined to be the queen. Even if Zhao Qiankun is now rushing into the palace and seeing her, he will probably get the same reply...
Zhao Qiankun could see that Xue Lian yearned for freedom and adventure deep down. Why did she choose the "Queen" as the most unfree job in the world? Zhao Qiankun didn't know that he just wanted to pull her out so that she would not make a choice that would regret for life.
Since there was something that made her unable to refuse to become a queen, he would come out and break it for her to show her, so that she could completely escape from the sea of suffering.
Zhao Qiankun decided that he would not go to see Xuelian secretly anymore. If he wanted to go, he would take her away openly on a highly anticipated occasion! What he wanted was not to rob people and elope, but to recognize the world, a true and perfect victory!
But before that, let’s eat first... In the Haina Cave Heaven these days, I basically ate and lived with the monsters. I ate in addition to raw, cold, fresh, fishy, and barbecue. I didn’t even have some fine food. After finally coming out, I had to have a full taste.
Zhao Qiankun came to the town, found a restaurant, ordered four cool and four hot pots of aged wine, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
This town is not big, only three or five miles away. There is only one main street in the town, with shops and inns on both sides. The most grand building is the palace that was temporarily built to welcome the "Queen". Now that the wedding team has left, this remote town probably will not have the opportunity to visit the big people. With the approval of the King of the Town West, the palace was also used and tidied up into a place similar to an indoor commercial street for merchants to set up stalls and trade.
This small town located on the official road is also a transportation hub, with pedestrians and merchants coming and going, which is very lively.
Zhao Qiankun sat in a restaurant eating dishes. Most of the people coming in and out carry swords and eating is relatively simple. He set up a table of dishes by himself, and this one is the only one.
Zhao Qiankun was having a happy meal when he suddenly heard the sound of awakening wood. He turned around and saw that in a corner of the restaurant, an old man in sixty years was standing there, bowing his fists to all the diners.
"Everyone, we said last time that Taizu led his troops south to resist the Nanyu cult, and our old Wangzu led his troops east to help. At this time, the Nangong family also sent troops north to resist the demon army from the imperial capital..."
It turned out to be a storyteller in the world! Looking at the end of the diners, this old man is quite popular and the guests are very familiar with him.
Zhao Qiankun was idle, so he followed him and explained the preface in a few words. It turned out to be the story of the five kings destroying Shang eight hundred years ago...
Today's Great Zhou was founded eight hundred years ago. Before that, the dynasty that ruled the largest territory of Dongao Shenzhou was named Shang. The current royal family, the Jiang family, also had three vassal kings of different surnames, and the Nangong family, which ruled the primitive continent's mercenary country, was a great clan of the Shang Dynasty at that time and was called the Five Kings.
A thousand years ago, hell invaded the main world, and neither the East nor the East could escape. An emperor Yusher appeared in the West, holding a holy sword to expel the demons. The East also, under the leadership of the Great Shang royal family, drove the demons back to the abyss hell with the power of the whole country.
But who would have thought that the demons in Dongao Shenzhou were not completely eliminated. They took advantage of the war to infiltrate the Da Shang royal family, and in the next two hundred years, they slowly corroded the Shang Dynasty's regime, replaced the originally glorious royal family, and turned the Da Shang emperor into a terrible demon cave!
In the end, the people in China were living in poverty, and the people rose up. The uprising army headed by the five kings jointly resisted the Shang king. Only after success did the current Great Zhou regime have been established!
