The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain - 567. Visiting Immortals Overseas

Qin?

Although Qin was a tiger and wolf army, Xun Kuang believed that Qin’s tiger and wolf army were not necessarily more powerful than the Zhao army under Bai Gui. Google search to read these Zhao army’s armor and battle formations are all novelties. Even if Wu Qi, Sima Ranju, Sun Bin and others were alive, they may not be able to defeat Bai Gui.

The tactics of the cold weapon era have been improving. Although the Song army was defeated by the Liao and Jin countries at the same time, and was sometimes defeated by the Xixia soldiers, it does not necessarily mean that the Song army was inferior to the Qin army…

What’s more, the Zhao army under Bai Gui is far more powerful than the Song army. Although it is not one against ten, it is not difficult to achieve an overwhelming victory with elite strength.

“I heard that there are immortals overseas. I wonder if Xun Jijiu knows about it?”

Bai Gui asked with a smile.

Xu Fu led three thousand boys and girls to visit immortals overseas, relying on theories that came from Qi. The overseas immortals of Qi State and the immortals of Kunlun are long-lasting myths and legends from the Warring States Period and are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Although Xun Kuang was a Confucian master, there were not only Confucian students in Jixia Academy, but also hundreds of schools of thought. If one were to discuss which place in the world had the richest knowledge, Jixia Academy would be the first place to recommend it.

“Immortal?”

Xun Kuang was surprised after hearing this. He said doubtfully: “Young master Li is so young. He is only a weakling now. He has not yet reached the age of hearing and hearing. Why should he seek immortality if he is not an octogenarian? Now half of my body has been buried in the loess.” The person who won the prize has not yet found an immortal, so why should Mr. Li think about it?”

The son is silent and his strange power confuses the gods. Although Xun Kuang was somewhat deviant in Confucianism, he was still a disciple of Confucianism. Therefore, he has always denied the view of ghosts and gods. As for the legend of overseas immortals circulating in Qi State, he would not deny it, but he would not agree with it either.

The Bai Gui in front of him was the person Xun Kuang considered to be the savior of the world.

Yes, the savior!

The Qin State only worshiped Legalism and abandoned all schools of thought. Even though it is vaguely consistent with some of his theories. But he knew in his heart that once Qin unified the world, Jixia Academy would never be as prosperous as before. The thoughts of hundreds of schools of thought will definitely be imprisoned by the King of Qin. Even if the world is unified by then, the people will no longer have to suffer from displacement and war. But Legalism fools the people, and this will do great harm to the country over time.

However, at the end of the Warring States Period, there were no famous generals in the Six Kingdoms. Perhaps Xinling Lord Wei Wuji, Anping Lord Tian Dan, Xinping Lord Lianpo and others were famous generals, but they could only barely resist Qin’s attack and had no power to fight back. But Bai Gui was different. With very few troops, he destroyed Qi in one battle.

It is easy to conquer the world, but difficult to defend it. After conquering the Qi State, Bai Gui has been trying his best to restrain the soldiers under his command. Even though he cannot achieve the level of the Yue Family Army who can freeze to death without tearing down their houses and starve to death without looting, compared with other armies, the Zhao Army under his command is enough It’s considered outstanding. Whether military discipline is good or not depends on comparison.

At the same time, after conquering Qi, Xun Kuang was shocked by a decree issued by Bai Gui. When talking about the talents of the six kingdoms, Xun Kuang also recommended Bai Gui first.

He is handsome and talented.

Such people were recognized by him as saviors.

He hopes to unify the countries, but what he hopes is that the people of the six countries will unify the world, not the Qin of tigers and wolves. Nowadays, such a great savior does not talk about the common people, but about ghosts and gods, which makes Xun Kuang feel quite dissatisfied.

“Xun’s words about offering wine are wrong.”

Bai Gui shook his head, “If people are sent to visit immortals next year, then I will have fifty or sixty years to look for immortals. If I go to look for immortals when I am old, even if I find immortals , but my body is already old, how can I have the chance to become an immortal?”

He himself is an immortal. He said he was looking for an immortal, just to use Xun Kuang’s mouth to spread the news that he wanted to find an immortal to the world. Once Xiang Shaolong knew that he was looking for immortals overseas, he would definitely find it difficult to sit still. Because Xiang Shaolong’s source of pride is immortality, if he were the first to find an immortal and learn the immortality method, wouldn’t that mean that Xiang Shaolong’s chances of winning would be greatly reduced.

This move will definitely make Xiang Shaolong feel on pins and needles.

Only by forcing Xiang Shaolong to a dead end.

The reason why Bai Gui took the lead in destroying Qi was not only because he coveted the fertile land of Qi, but also because he planned to use this to send envoys overseas to visit immortals.

“Young Master Li’s words… are quite reasonable.”

Xun Kuang smiled bitterly. He couldn’t refute Bai Gui’s words. In fact, as Bai Gui said, if you are really old and seek immortality, it will be too late. He nodded and said: “I have only heard a little about the overseas fairy mountains. Zou Zi of the Yin Yang family may have some knowledge of this.”

Zou Yan, the son of Zou, was a native of Qi.

Zou Ji satirized the King of Qi to accept the remonstrance. Zou Ji was the same clan as Zou Yan.

“Zou Zi?” Bai Gui dropped another white stone. He nodded and shook his head, “I have seen Zou Zi in Wei State. A few months ago, I went to Daliang in Wei State to go out. I met Ji Yanran at Yahu Xiaozhu. Ji Yanran is Zou Zi’s adopted daughter. I don’t know when Zou Zi will return to Qi.”

If you really want to visit the immortals, Zou Yan is undoubtedly a suitable candidate. Compared with Zou Yan, the alchemist Xu Fu was far behind. Xu Fu is a person who is at the level of Zou Yan’s disciples and disciples.

“Young Master Li will destroy me, Tian Qi. Zou Zi will probably arrive in Linzi soon to see you.”

Xun Kuang was not sad about Bai Gui’s destruction of Qi. If Qin destroyed Qi, he would be uncomfortable, but Bai Gui’s various measures after destroying Qi made him very satisfied.

Qin is like a barbarian outside the cultural circle of the Six Kingdoms. Even though the State of Zhao used Hu Fu to ride and shoot, the State of Zhao did not implement Legalism to the end like the State of Qin, and could still learn freely.

“oh?”

Bai Gui joked, “Xun offers wine, I guess Zou Zi will give his adopted daughter to me as my concubine.”

He destroyed Qi in one battle, and now his prestige is unparalleled. Wei Wuji, Lord of Xinling, was powerful, but he only stole the talisman to save Zhao. Just like Le Yi, Le Yi had no reputation before he destroyed Qi. But after Le Yi destroyed the prosperous Qi State, Le Yi instantly became the top general of the Warring States Period.

What’s more, the battle he fought to destroy Qi was so exciting. Anyone can see that since it was so easy for him to destroy Qi, it must not be difficult to destroy Yan and Chu in the future.

As for Ji Yanran, to put it mildly, she is one of the top talents in the world. But just because celebrities are praising her, it doesn’t mean that Ji Yanran really has the qualifications to be on an equal footing with these celebrities. Although Ji Yanran is Zou Zi’s adopted daughter, if Zou Yan wants to see him for utilitarian purposes, then Ji Yanran is not something that cannot be discarded.

In addition, it is said to be giving up, but if you can marry a talented woman to the “him” you are today, you will definitely make a lot of money.

“Ji Yanran? I have seen her before. She is a beauty.”

Xun Kuang stroked his beard and said, “Since ancient times, beauties have been paired with famous generals. It would be a good thing if Ji Yanran is chosen as a prince.”

Ji Yanran said she was from the Wei State, but she was Zou Yan’s adopted daughter, but she was actually from the Qi State. If Bai Gui takes Qi’s daughter as a concubine now, the resistance of the people of Qi will undoubtedly be much weaker. Xun Kuang was planning for Bai Gui’s future stable rule.

“Let’s go with the flow…”

Bai Gui showed neither willingness to accept nor rejection.

How can there be so much emotion at all. If you are thinking about the big plan, it is just a concubine, and you will accept it if you accept it. He won’t lose anything. Not accepting talents is out of touch with this era.

“It’s a pity that Mr. Li is only the prime minister of Zhao State now. If he is the king…, then the princess of Qi can be chosen by Mr. Li as his concubine…”

Xun Kuang follows the path of good inducement.

After King Ping moved eastward, rituals and music collapsed. The King of Qi in Tian Qi was not the first King of Qi who was canonized by Emperor Zhou, but was taken from him after the Tian family usurped the throne. Bai Gui now has a prosperous army and horses. If he calls himself the King of Qi, it is not impossible. Anyway, the King of Zhou is gone now.

And if Bai Gui calls himself King of Qi and later marries a princess from the Qi royal family as his concubine, then he will be worthy of the preferential treatment given by King Tian Fazhang of Qi. As long as Bai Gui marries the princess of Qi, he will definitely not launch a massacre of Zhutian, and Tian Qi will still exist in disguise.

When Bai Gui invaded Qi, he did not kill anyone indiscriminately, and the royal family of Qi was still there.

“Xun Jijiu, you are trying to trick me into making yourself king…”

Bai Gui smiled. Of course he could hear the meaning of Xun Kuang’s words. He shook his head and said: “There is nothing to compete for in the secular power. A hundred years later, it will not be a pile of bones. Since I married Qian If my son is my wife, I will not betray King Zhao…”

He doesn’t care about the power of a mere small world.

When he reaches the Golden Immortal Realm, and borrows the magic weapon from his master, he might be able to open up a world.

Qian’er? Xun Kuang was startled for a moment, and then he understood that this should be the princess of Zhao State whom Bai Gui married.

But when he came to his senses, he was shocked when he heard the second half of Bai Gui’s words.

Although he advised Bai Gui to establish himself as king, he only secretly assumed power and did not dare to state it so nakedly and directly. But I didn’t expect that Bai Gui would admit it so frankly, without any cover-up.

Did you already have ambitions?

Or, as the words imply, are you not interested in secular dignitaries?

Xun Kuang was also a little unsure.

“Young Master Li is open-minded and I admire him for his open-mindedness. However, the matter of visiting immortals is really hard to come by. To be honest, all the kings of Qi have sent out alchemists to search for the Three Immortals Island overseas, but many of the alchemists they sent drowned. It’s in the sea…”

He advised again.

How come a young man in his prime, who is in his golden years to make great achievements, wants to cultivate immortality? Isn’t this putting the cart before the horse? If Bai Gui’s record and internal affairs skills were not commendable, he would have suspected that this “Zhao Li” was an ignorant person.

“It’s just a try. If I’m lucky, maybe I can actually see the immortal…”

Bai Gui ended the topic.

He is an immortal, and he can just do some magical miracles when the time comes.

The words fell.

The two of them finished playing chess.

“Master Li’s chess skills should not be underestimated. No wonder he is so accomplished in the art of war…” Seeing that he had lost another game, Xun Kuang couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows, a little unbelievable.

He is the sacrificial wine of the Jixia Academy of Qi State. Among the hundreds of schools of thought, he is the oldest and the most knowledgeable. Playing chess is one of the compulsory courses for scholars, but he unexpectedly lost at the hands of this young man. It would be fine to say that he is not as good as Bai Gui in a battle, but he loses in a game of chess…

“Xun Jijiu is old after all. If there is an immortal magic around, maybe Xun Jijiu can beat me.”

Bai Gui stood up and smiled.

In fact, Xun Kuang’s strength is considered to be one of the best among mortals playing chess. But no matter how powerful Xun Kuang is, it is difficult to compare with him, a Taoist immortal. With his Yang Shen, he can calculate hundreds of moves in the chess game. Xun Kuang couldn’t defeat him at all.

So what he said was both a joke and the truth.

“maybe.”

Xun Kuang shook his head.

…

…

Qin State, Xianyang.

In the court room.

The news that Bai Gui destroyed Qi in one fell swoop soon spread from Linzi to Xianyang of Qin State. Although Qin also accomplished such a great feat as destroying a country, it only destroyed small countries, not big ones like Qi. The State of Qi was one of the Eastern Emperors that once stood alongside the State of Qin. Even if the former Le Yi destroyed Qi, the two capitals of Qi State, Jimo and Jucheng, would still remain (Qi State has a five-capital system).

But now “Zhao Li” is destroying Qi, and is taking over the entire territory of Qi.

“Your Majesty, now that the State of Zhao has gone against the grain and set an example of destroying the country first, we, the Qin State, no longer need to worry about what the other countries think. South Korea is the object of our Qin State’s mouth. If we had not been afraid of the other countries before, we would be afraid that the other countries would hear that our Qin State destroyed South Korea. Panic, South Korea has been destroyed long ago…”

A minister came out.

“When Qin goes east, sometimes we have to pass through South Korea. If Zhao destroys Qi, Qin can take action.”

Another Qin Chen said.

Qin Yiren on the throne nodded, “What you all said is true, South Korea should die. General Mengwu, lead one hundred thousand Qin warriors to the east to destroy South Korea!”

South Korea now only has one county. It had long been controlled by the Qin State. A hundred thousand troops can easily wipe out South Korea.

Meng Wu is the son of Meng Ao and the father of Meng Tian and Meng Yi.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Meng Wu, who was dressed in military armor, took the order and left the hall.

The general meeting decides on small things, and the small meeting decides on big things. Yesterday, he had received the order from King Qin to destroy Han. Today is just a formality. It was also because South Korea was so weak that Qin didn’t pay much attention to it. Otherwise, if the military order was urgent, it wouldn’t be like this.

“Your Majesty, I have something to report to you.”

Suddenly, another minister came out and came forward to say something.

“Oh? What’s the matter?”

Qin Yiren was surprised after hearing this.

At the court meeting, only trivial matters were discussed. If there was really something serious, I would have reported it to him long ago. However, he was not in a hurry and let the ministers who came out slowly explain.

“Report to my king, I have received news that after Zhao Li destroyed Qi, he met with Xun Kuang, a wine-offering priest, at the Jixia Academy, and asked Xun Kuang about his overseas affairs in the fairy mountains. Later, this son ordered Qi’s shipbuilders to build a large ship to go to sea. , it seems that he really plans to visit the immortal…”

The ministers who came out spoke.

Compared with other urgent military situations, this news is indeed a bit insignificant.

“Visiting immortals?”

Qin Yiren pressed his fingers lightly on the table.

On the other side, Xiang Mansion, secret room.

Xiang Shaolong opened his eyes suddenly, “What? Zhao Li actually plans to go to sea to visit immortals? Could it be that he also learned about the news that there are immortals overseas…”

The man in the mirror’s encounter with the immortal is the Penglai immortal mountain he encountered when he returned from studying in the East.

Nowadays, it is not impossible for Zhao Li to visit the immortals and encounter the Penglai Immortal Mountain.

“Mr. Bai, what should I do?”

he asked for help.
