Chapter 266 The Snow Country People's Conspiracy
Chu Xiaomu thought to himself, this was the first time Huang Jieshi and I had met, and I had never told him about the Snow Country people stealing the ancient tripod. It seemed that General Bi Ye had already told him about this matter. As for Hundred Flower Island and so on, Huang Jieshi naturally knew about it from the general.
Bi Ye said: "But what does this matter have to do with Ran Qingdeng? It is said that this man is a water countryman and doesn't like to meddle in other people's affairs."
Chu Xiaomu listened carefully, wondering what Huang Jieshi was trying to say after all the talk.
Huang Jieshi said: "General, don't forget that there are ancient inscriptions engraved on the Mingyuan Ding..."
Bi Ye suddenly realized and said, "So that's how it is. Huang Tianxiang is really thoughtful. I think the Claw Tribe is willing to fight with my Bi City and travel thousands of miles to Yutuo City. It must be for this reason!"
Huang Jieshi said: "If not for this, nothing would interest Chisha so much."
Bi Ye was even more surprised and asked, "Are you saying that the Sand Country's God Lord Chisha was behind this?"
Huang Jieshi nodded and said, "If it weren't for Chisha's manipulation, how could the Yanzhua clan dare to invade my Bicheng with their own strength? Wouldn't that be courting death?"
Bi Ye concentrated on thinking, his expression becoming more and more solemn.
When he first learned that the Claw Clan was suddenly attacking, even though Humu Pass was lost and the Nanding Army camp was broken, he didn't think it was a big deal. He just needed to deploy troops slightly, or he could lead the army to fight in person. Even if the opponent was the Claw Clan's Spirit King Yan Claw, it was just another defeat at his hands.
Hearing Huang Jieshi's analysis, he felt that it was most likely that Chisha was behind the scenes. If that was true, then what Bicheng would face was not just the Claw Clan of Chisha, but the Eye, Tooth, Hoof, and Claw Clan. Even if Bicheng had four or five times more soldiers, it would still be difficult to withstand the combined attack of the four major tribes of Chisha.
Judging from the secret letter seized by Chu Xiaomu, this speculation seems to be further confirmed - the main purpose of the Claw Tribe is just to tie down the military power of their own Green City, and advancing eastward to Yutuo City is just to explore the way ahead, and there must be other Red Sand Country troops following up.
And he transferred part of the Dongzhong Army back to Bicheng, which was exactly what they wanted! His mind was spinning rapidly, thinking of a countermeasure.
Chu Xiaomu listened to the general and Mr. Huang talking, and it seemed like a riddle. He was completely confused and couldn't understand anything. He couldn't help but ask: "General, Mr. Huang, what's going on? Is this difficult to handle?"
Bi Ye kept silent, still thinking nervously...
Huang Jieshi then explained his speculation in detail to Chu Xiaomu, and did not ignore him just because he was an insignificant boy.
It turns out that the Mingyuan Cauldron, Qishan Scroll, Chilian Sword and Bihuo Ring are the four divine artifacts that guide the circulation of spiritual energy. There is an ancient inscription engraved on each of the four objects. It is said that after collecting all four objects, one can find the miracles left by the two gods of creation through the inscriptions on them.
There are only three or two people in the four countries who can understand the inscriptions on the four sacred artifacts, and the cave hermit Ran Qingdeng happens to be one of them.
As for what exactly a miracle is, no one in the world, whether human or spirit, knows. However, this can arouse people's interest even more. No matter whether it is the Lord God or the Spirit King, whether it is a mortal or a spirit beast, no one wants to find it and claim it for themselves.
Chu Xiaomu said: "So, the people of Chisha Country want to capture Ran Qingdeng?"
Huang Jieshi shook his head and smiled: "Not really..."
Chu Xiaomu asked: "Since they traveled thousands of miles to Yutuo City for Ran Qingdeng, why don't they want to capture him back?"
Huang Jieshi smiled and pointed to General Bi Ye who was pacing back and forth.
Bi Ye then stopped and said seriously, "That's because the Dark Abyss Cauldron is now in Yutuo City!"
Chu Xiaomu was also very surprised. He didn't expect that the White Snow Country Spirit King, who used the alias Qin Gang, actually carried the ancient tripod all the way to Yutuo City. Wasn't he afraid of being discovered by other people or spirits? Yes, this guy is the White Snow Country Spirit King, so his ability is naturally extraordinary. Even if he encounters a few people or spirits, he should be able to deal with them.
Moreover, General Bi Ye had said before that this guy was traveling around the Cangmu Kingdom with the Mingyuan Ding, maybe he did it on purpose, wanting others to covet it and causing chaos in the Cangmu Kingdom.
Its heart is awkward!
Bi Ye continued, "It turns out that it was for the miracle left by the two Shangqing gods. More than two hundred years have passed, and Chisha still can't forget about it. However, miracles are probably illusory. As the god of Chisha country, Chisha is obsessed with such an illusory thing. It is really hard to understand."
Chu Xiaomu once heard Bi Ye talk about the war that took place between the four countries more than two hundred years ago.
This war lasted for nearly forty years and only ended more than two hundred and forty years ago. It caused countless casualties among the people of the four countries, and the Cangmu Country was devastated.
It is said that the real cause of this war was that Chisha sent a spirit with the Chilian Sword to Cangmu Country to decipher the ancient inscriptions in order to seek a miracle. Then the Chilian Sword was lost in Cangmu Country for some unknown reason, and Chisha used this as an excuse to launch a war against Cangmu Country.
Later, the cities of the Snow White Country and the islands of the Blue Abyss Country also got involved. On the surface, they said they were doing it to end the war as soon as possible and save the people from the dire situation, but in fact, they each had their own plans. In the final analysis, they all coveted the miracles left behind by the God of Creation.
Huang Jieshi said, "The miracles are probably true. Chisha is the second son of the Shangqing Gods. He should know this. If he was just fighting for territory, he would not have gone all the way to attack the not-so-fertile Yutuo City in the east."
Bi Ye nodded and said, "Jinyang, Xihai and Baijun are much richer than Yutuo and Bicheng, and they have more people and livestock. Chisha wants these three cities the most." He paused and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. The most important thing now is how to eliminate the catastrophe that is about to come. The army of Chisha has entered Cangmu, and war is inevitable. If we don't deal with it properly, I don't know how many people will be separated from their wives and children, or even their families will be destroyed."
Chu Xiaomu said: "General, we drove away the Chisha people more than 200 years ago. I don't think we need to be afraid of them now. If they come, we will drive them away again!"
Bi Ye looked solemn and didn't speak for a while.
Huang Jieshi said, "The Eye, Tooth, Hoof, and Claw tribes of Chisha are ranked from strong to weak, with the Claw tribe being the weakest. Two hundred years ago, Chisha attacked our Cangmu country and almost captured all six of our cities. Fortunately, the general defeated several of the enemy's generals, which saved the situation from danger and saved the country. This time, they are coming back, and I'm afraid their military strength will be even stronger than before."
