Chapter 296 Li Yuanji's Plan
Li Shimin, who was walking in front, would occasionally look back.
He had planned that if the other person couldn't keep up, he would stop and wait a little while.
But unexpectedly.
As he turned around for the third time, several figures rushed past him.
Even Li Shimin was somewhat taken aback.
When he turned around.
Then he saw that Han Bei's Xuanwu mecha was driving alongside him.
Blue flames were also shooting out from the back of the mech.
Even Li Shimin, a man of great experience and knowledge, was still somewhat shocked at this moment.
To know.
The Black Bird was the fastest mount he could remember.
Although it cannot compare to the black dragon, the steed of the First Emperor, as recorded in historical books.
But it was also the fastest mount he knew.
However, the speed of the opponent's Xuanwu was in no way inferior, and it was even faster than the Xuan bird he was riding.
On the other side, Cheng Yaojin stared at the Xuanwu around him, his eyes practically bulging out of their sockets.
Does Xuanwu have such a fast speed?
If he had known it would be like this, he would have asked His Majesty to let him use those dozens of Xuanwu aircraft.
That's right.
The first batch of Xuanwu that Han Bei and his group had exchanged for are still lying in the imperial palace in Chang'an City.
Li Shimin also began to regret his actions at this moment.
If he had known that the Xuanwu was faster than the Xuanniao, he wouldn't have used the Xuanniao.
But there's no turning back now that we're here; we can only move forward first and see what happens next.
"After we get back, we will definitely make Han Bei and the others write down the method of manipulating Xuanwu."
Li Shimin pondered to himself.
At first, he simply thought that Xuanwu had high attack and defense capabilities, but he didn't expect it to be so fast as well.
She's practically an all-rounder!
With this thing, what else is there to fear?
No wonder Han Bei and the others stayed inside Xuanwu. It turns out that even if they turned against each other, they couldn't catch up with this speed.
One day later.
Zhuolu.
Zhuolu was under the jurisdiction of Youzhou, but it was actually Zhuozhou.
However, Li Shimin preferred to call it Zhuolu.
When the group arrived at the place described in the secret letter.
All around was desolation, a scene of utter devastation.
Upon seeing this scene, Han Bei felt a chill run down his spine. It was quite different from what he had imagined.
He originally thought that only ordinary people had disappeared, but now it seems that the surrounding environment also reveals significant problems.
Because the surrounding trees were withered and dead, even the soil was now a dark brown color.
The weeds on the ground had long since withered.
There was no sign of life at all, as if something had forcibly drained its vitality.
Li Shimin surveyed his surroundings, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
This situation is somewhat similar to Qin Yuan of the Mountain and Sea Demon Clan.
That kind of monster feeds on flowers, grass, and trees; wherever it goes, all plants wither.
It's exactly the same situation as it is now.
But what does the disappearance of Qinyuan and the people have to do with it?
On the distant mountain peaks.
Figures stood tall on the mountaintop.
The leaders were none other than Li Yuanji and Li Jiuyan, a descendant of Chiyou.
"Master Li, how are the sacrificial offerings being prepared?"
Li Yuanji stood atop the mountain, gazing quietly into the distance, his eyes sweeping over the lifeless land.
A slight smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
These are all his masterpieces.
"Li Shimin, wait for me."
Li Yuanji's gaze turned cold. If Li Shimin could sit on this throne, then Li Yuanji could certainly sit on it too.
After some time, he will lead his army to conquer the Central Plains.
We'll see how Li Shimin resists then.
"Your Highness, is it truly possible for our ancestors to be resurrected?"
Li Jiuyan spoke somewhat nervously.
Our ancestor was the ancient Chi You.
If they could revive him, why would the Li people have to worry about not having anyone to protect them?
"Of course, as long as you do as I say, resurrecting your ancestors will be no difficult task."
Li Yuanji chuckled softly.
His eyes were full of arrogance and treachery.
That's right.
Reviving Chi You was also part of his plan.
He had been consulting historical materials and seeking verification from various sources for a long time.
To everyone's surprise, Chi You was not actually dead; on the contrary, he had been sealed underground.
Among the strange and exotic races of the mountains and seas.
Fortunately, there is a way to break the seal, but the price is too high, requiring human blood as a catalyst and souls as a banner.
Moreover, the required quantity is quite large.
Meanwhile, the Jiuli tribe, whose power had been waning in recent years, began to have the idea of resurrecting their ancestors.
However, due to the lack of a concrete solution, the matter has been shelved.
At this time, Li Yuanji happened to know, and the two naturally came together.
However, what Li Jiuyan didn't know was...
Even if their ancestors were resurrected.
That was also a puppet, a puppet that obeyed Li Yuanji's orders.
Rather, it was not their ancestors who could protect them.
However, Li Jiuyan was unaware of all of this.
They naively believed that their ancestors could be resurrected, even though the method Li Yuanji possessed was obtained from the alien races of the mountains and seas.
Li Jiuyan remained fearless.
Unfortunately, all of these ideas will ultimately come to nothing.
the other side.
Li Shimin and his entourage had arrived at a village.
Although it wasn't a long-abandoned village, with no cobwebs or dust, there was still no sign of anyone in the entire village.
Just like those indigenous people, who never existed.
"All the villagers in such a big village have disappeared. The person behind this is playing a very big game."
Han Bei frowned as he surveyed the village.
There are at least several dozen houses in this village, and at least twenty or thirty households.
Such a large number of villagers have all disappeared.
Things are clearly beyond the realm of common sense.
"Let's go, it's time to move on to the next village."
Li Shimin frowned and turned to leave.
But Han Bei stopped him.
"Let's scout ahead first before we leave."
Han Bei said in a deep voice.
"Detection?"
Cheng Yaojin frowned slightly upon hearing this. This deserted village was clearly uninhabited.
What else is there to test?
Although Li Shimin was somewhat puzzled, he still stopped in his tracks.
Han Bei immediately activated the life detector on the mecha.
Immediately, dozens of tiny red dots appeared on the mysterious detector.
Don't think about it.
These little red dots are them.
What puzzled Han Bei was that there was a small red dot on the detector that was farther away from most of the other red dots.
It seemed like he had thought of something.
Han Bei piloted the mecha toward the center of the village.
Upon seeing this, Su Yang and the others immediately realized that Han Bei must have discovered something.
So they all turned on their life detectors, and the same scene appeared before them once again.
"Walk."
When Li Shimin saw that Han Bei and the others were all walking towards a certain direction in the center of the village, he was also moved.
Quickly followed.
