Chapter 68 The Arrival of Crisis
The "Pengmen people" on "Pengmen Island" are slowly rising.
Taking advantage of the remaining fire of life in the "life cave", in the past few days, Gufan and the fire are stepping up their practice. Seeing that the fire of life in the "life cave" is constantly dissipating, although it is a pity, they have no choice.
On this day, Gu Fan had just finished sitting, and suddenly a loud voice came from afar: "Gu Fan, why don't you come out to see me?"
He also heard the fire greeting sitting cross-legged beside him. He immediately opened his eyes and looked at Gu Fan with a strange smile: "Gu Fan, I'm afraid that one will come again. Why don't you go and meet him?"
Gu Fan heard the voice, but with a bitter face, he said, "Sister Huo, aren't you going?"
Huoxuan shook his head and said, "I'm here to see you. What am I going to do? I won't go." After saying that, close your eyes and continue to practice.
Gu Fan stood up helplessly, ran out of the cave with a bitter face.
When I rushed to "Pengmen Village", I saw people coming in and out everywhere, carrying supplies and moving into the village endlessly.
Lugufu led the people of the clan and was respectfully serving a powerful old man in yellow.
Beside the old man, there was still a girl about twelve or thirteen years old. The girl was wearing a pink dress, with a heroic face and a pair of big eyes, and was shooting everywhere. Suddenly, she saw Gu Fan coming from afar, and quietly took the sleeve of the powerful old man beside her and whispered.
The powerful old man laughed and had already greeted Gu Fan.
Although Gu Fan was helpless, he still had to pretend to worship: "Gu Fan saw the King of Taishang Wu."
When he was about to worship, the powerful old man had already held his hand. Gu Fan took the opportunity to stand up and avoid kneeling.
This powerful old man is the King of Vientiane Wu of the "King of Vientiane", but when the King of Ming ascended the throne, he had retired behind the scenes and became the King of Taishang Wu.
The heroic girl beside him is the favorite granddaughter of King Taishang Wu, and also the daughter of the King of Ming today, Saint Maner.
In the "Wanxiang City", she fought with Siam, the third prince of the "King of Thailand" and was defeated. After that, Gu Fan took the stage, defeated Siam, and won glory for the "King of Vientiane". She also got the reward of a hundred gold coins and the secret of the "Lion and Elephant".
After, his troubles came. Every year, the "Wuwang" will deliver two or three batches of supplies to "Pengmen Island". It can be said that he is very kind to the "Pengmen clan".
And the purpose of King Wu is well known to everyone.
A six-year-old "four-level ancestor" will not let go in any case, and the purpose of every time he comes with St. Manle is even more obvious.
This is also the reason why Huoxuan smiled a little strangely when he heard the voice of King Wu.
Gu Fan glanced at St. Man'er and thought to himself that the little girl was getting more and more beautiful, with a heroic face.
Although he and Saint Man'er are still young, they are all aware of King Wu's thoughts. However, both of them are not against each other. Gu Fan doesn't like Saint Man's arrogance, and Saint Man'er also looks at Gu Fan's dislike. After knowing Grandpa's intentions, her heart is even more full of rebellion and anger.
She thought that Grandpa did not hesitate to sacrifice and betray her granddaughter in order to win over Gu Fan. She was full of dissatisfaction with the idea of King Wu, but she could not resist, so every time she came, she was reluctant. Her dissatisfaction and anger could not send to Grandpa. When he came out, he got angry with Gu Fan.
Gu Fan still clearly remembers that when King Wu first landed on the island with St. Man'er, he intended to give them a chance to get along with each other. The first thing St. Man'er said to him was to let him die. She married a pig and a dog in this life, and she would not marry him.
Thinking that Saint Manle was less than ten years old at that time, with a bulging face and fingers pointing straight at him. When she said this, she was like an enraged hen, and Gu Fan couldn't laugh or cry.
And King Wu didn't know it. Instead, he thought they got along well, so he would come two or three times a year to give them a chance to exchange feelings.
Every time he came, Gu Fan's scalp was numb when he thought of seeing St. Man'er.
"Gu Fan, are you still unwilling to go to 'Wanxiang City'? We can provide you with a better place to practice. The king of Taishang Wu laughed. He and his granddaughter happened to meet each other. Looking at Gu Fan, the more he looked at it, the more he became pleasing to his eyes.
Gu Fan shook his head and was busy refusing. Thinking of going to "Wanxiang City", he finally said that he was with St. Man'er, which was more uncomfortable than killing him.
When they were talking, Saint Maner also pricked up her ears and listened. Every time she heard her grandfather mention inviting Gu Fan to "Wanxiang City", she was so worried that Gu Fan would agree, and every time she saw Gu Fan refuse, she was relieved.
Every time the King of Wu will stay for about a week. This week, he will compete with Gu Fan, test the progress of his strength, and then point out his shortcomings.
Although Gu Fan is invisible to a part of his strength, his progress still makes "Wu Wang" feel satisfied.
When there were only him and St. Manle in private, St. Manle said to him provocatively, "In another year or two, I can become a 'five-level ancestral disciple', and I will soon surpass you."
Gu Fan grinned and wanted to tell the girl in front of him that he had been a "five-level ancestor" for a long time. However, he reported the idea that a good man would not fight with women. He just smiled faintly and turned away and walked away, making Sheng Maner grit his teeth and stamped his feet in the back.
The deer leather boots stamped on the ground and crackled.
Unexpectedly, this time, King Wu and his party only stayed for three days and left.
Before leaving, King Wu didn't look good, and he seemed to be a little worried.
After sending away the King of Taishang Wu, Gu Fan breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he asked Bai Jianxiong strangely, "Is there something wrong? The face of the King of Wu seems to be very ugly?
"It should be said that it hasn't been better in the past few years. This time, I'm afraid that the situation is more serious, so King Wu has to rush back to deal with it." Bai Jianxiong smiled.
Gufanqi said, "What's going on?"
" Speaking of which, it has something to do with you." Bai Jianxiong laughed and revealed the mystery in Gu Fan's doubts: "You fought with Siam. At that time, both sides had a bet. If the 'Thai Empire' loses, it will take out an island. Just because of this bet, because of this island, the "Thai Kingdom" and the "Vientiane Kingdom" have intensified in the past few years, and there have been many conflicts between the two sides.
"I am willing to bet and lose. At that time, there were so many other envoys. The 'Thai Kingdom' lost and handed over the island in the bet. What's the controversy? Do they want to go back on their word?"
"The islands have been handed over, but the contradictions between the two sides have also intensified. The voice of the 'Thai Empire' wanting to solve the 'Wanxiang State' by war by force is getting higher and higher. In my opinion, there will be a war between the two sides sooner or later."
In the past few years, Bai Jianxiong has not neglected intelligence, so he knows all the news.
Gu Fan touched his chin and said, "It's really going to fight. How about the victory or defeat of the two sides? Who is stronger and weaker in this 'King of Thailand' and 'King of Vientiane'?
"In terms of strength, the 'Kingdom of Thailand' is much stronger than the 'Kingdom of Vientiane', but the 'Kingdom of Vientiane' and the 'Kingdom' are good friends. Once you attack the 'Kingdom of Vientiane', it is easy to be attacked by the enemy and fight on both sides. At the same time, you can deal with the 'Kingdom of Vientiane' and the 'Kingdom of Thailand', but the 'Kingdom of Thailand' has no confidence. It is also for this reason that It has been delayed until now, otherwise, there would have been a fight.
"Well, I remember you said that the king of the 'country' is still St. Man's brother-in-law."
"Yes, 'the Vientiane Country' is the weakest among all countries. It is just a country composed of dozens of islands. It is loosely organized. It sounds better to be called a country, but it is just an alliance of a group of small islands, fighting separately and does not have much combat power."
"It is said that the 'Thai Emperor' of the 'Thai Kingdom' broke through into the realm of 'seven-level ancestral disciples' a few years ago, and has been ambitious since then. In addition, he lost another island. How can he be willing? Sooner or later, there will be a war between the two sides. Bai Jianxiong sighed. Obviously, he was not optimistic about the "Wanxiang Country".
Gu Fan nodded, and he couldn't talk about these things. He said goodbye to Bai Jianxiong and continued to return to the deep mountain cave to practice.
Bai Jianxiong's estimate was not wrong, but the situation was more serious than he thought. Three months later, the "Thai Empire" and the "Wanxiang Kingdom" escalated from various skirmishes to war. The island that had been lost to the "Wanxiang Kingdom" was re-occupied by the "Thai Empire" army.
The army of the "Emperor of Thailand" entered the "King of Vientiane".
In the next half a year, the "King of Thailand" captured more than a dozen islands belonging to the "King of Vientiane" in a row, gathered a large army, went straight into Huanglong, and came to the "Wanxiang Island" in the center of the "King of Vientiane".
The whole "Wanxiang Country" is in panic. Bai Jianxiong, Lugufu and others also got the news very early, but fortunately, "Pengmen Island" is relatively remote, and it is still early for the war to spread here.
Gu Fan and Huoxuan have swallowed the "dew of life". In the past eight months, the sixth ancestral acupoint of Huoxuan has been completed, and it is not far from the day when the sixth ancestral acupoint is really condensed. According to her own estimation, she will be able to become a real "six-level ancestral disciple" for half a year at most.
"Six-level ancestral apprentice" can be regarded as a real independent side in overseas countries. Even if he is a Taishang Wuwang, he is just a "six-level ancestral disciple".
As for the practice speed of Gu Fan, it is faster than Huoxuan. Huoxuan is the sixth ancestral acupoint that has been completed. It is estimated that it can be truly condensed in half a year, while Gufan has reached the realm of great success two years ago. It has long begun to condense the sixth ancestral acupoint, and it is possible to successfully "yin" the sixth "yin" at any time. The ancestral cave condensed and was promoted to a real "six-level ancestral disciple".
At this moment, Gu Fan is less than ten years old.
Less than ten years old, he became a "six-level ancestral disciple". At this speed, I dare not say that there is no one in the future, and it can also be called unprecedented.
And at this moment, Gu Fan does not know that a huge crisis is approaching "Pengmen Island".
