Section 55
The war continued, the demon god fell, and the power after death eroded the earth and brought various disasters.
The rest are easy to say, but only the plague will break out quickly and spread extremely quickly once someone is infected.
And this cannot be solved by strong force.
Even in this corner of Licheng, two plagues broke out.
However, they were all resolved by Su Chen's exquisite pharmacological abilities.
In addition, there were several outbreaks of the power of the demon god's remnants. Even if Jinpeng Yaksha desperately hoeed the earth, he could not completely avoid the death of his people.
There is no way, in the face of the power of the devil, mortals are indeed too weak.
Su Chen was only one person, and it was impossible to guard against everything.
Not to mention Licheng, even in Guiliji, which is guarded by immortals and protected by the Rock King, the Dust God, and the Kitchen God, people are still dying.
It doesn't matter if one or two of them are killed by force.
But the plague spread, killing a large number of people.
No, King Yan learned about the plague control in Licheng, so he sent someone to ask for help.
In fact, this was also the first contact between the two major forces.
Enemy or friend, it all depends on this.
[You know that this trip is inevitable, and there can only be one final winner in Liyue. Even if you have no intention of fighting for hegemony, how can others believe you? 】
[For the people of Licheng, you must meet with the Rock King to express your thoughts and at the same time find out what the Rock King is thinking. So three days after the visit of True Monarch Cutting Moon and Building Yang, you went to Qiongjiye alone. 】
Guiliji!
Su Chen stood outside the city gate, looking at this prosperous city-state in the distance, and couldn't help but be amazed by the scene in front of him.
Licheng is already an extremely prosperous city in the world, but compared with Guiliji, it does pale into insignificance.
It's not that the technology and craftsmanship are inferior, it's mainly due to the limited land resources that it can't be built. Looking at the land of Qiongjiye, it's hard to find another piece of land in Liyue, otherwise it wouldn't attract so many demon gods fighting for it.
If Licheng is an exquisite attic, then Guiliji is a magnificent palace.
Big and spectacular.
The number of people is even more numerous. According to Zhenjun Xieyue Zhuyang, the population of Guiliji has exceeded one million.
And these have grown up after experiencing hardships. Most of the people have faced desperate crises, and the entire Guili group has a strong cohesion.
At the gate of the city, there were guards standing upright with spears in their hands.
A group of soldiers rushed out of the city.
"This is the Thousand Rocks Group." said the True Monarch of Cutting the Moon and Building the Yang.
"I've heard a lot about the bravery of the Qianyan Group." Su Chen sighed, "The ability to fight against the devil is unique in the entire Liyue land."
Although it was with the help of Morax's power, it was still shocking to be able to achieve this level with a human body. Apart from other things, Su Chen couldn't do it on his own. Although the people of Licheng were brave, they could only follow Behemoth fights a dozen.
I don’t know what method Lord Yan used. It would be great if I could copy it and learn from it.
[You enter Guiliji, and everything inside surprises you again. At the same time, you also deeply realize why Licheng can settle down in this troubled world. Compared with the prosperity of Guiliji, Licheng is too small after all, and there are The Demon God of Dreams has learned from the past, Licheng will not become the first target of many Demon Gods’ attacks. 】
[Under the guidance of Zhenjun Xieyue Zhuyang, you set foot on the palace at the center of Guiliji and met the legendary Rock King. 】
["I've met the Rock King." You give the other person the most basic respect. 】
[On the Golden Throne, Morax is also looking at you. You don’t see hostility in his eyes, but curiosity and respect. 】
[Morax welcomed your arrival. You had a brief greeting with him, and then Morax took you to an attic. 】
[The attic overlooks the sea of clouds. You and Morax have a good time drinking and talking about your interests, and you can't help but feel a sense of sympathy between heroes. 】
[Morax was surprised by your identity and wisdom as a human being. He asked you about some ways of governing the country, and also shared his experience. From his words, you saw the sincerity of this Rock King, and you also knew that he was his son. people’s determination to consider. 】
[As a powerful demon, he had no intention of participating in this cruel war, but the current situation was such that he couldn't do what he wanted. 】
"In this world, demons and gods are rising together. Although I have no intention of competing, I know the suffering of the people." Morax said leisurely.
"In troubled times, no one can have peace." Su Chen said.
"Then what do you think should be done?" Morax asked.
This question was also a test of Su Chen's thoughts.
Su Chen put down his wine glass and chuckled: "There is no peace in the troubled times, so just end this troubled times. Now in the world of Liyue, Gui Li gathers in the center, Chi Long is king in the north, and the situation in the west is the most chaotic. Although there are several parties But there is nothing to worry about in terms of power. The south coast can be attacked and retreated. There are many big demons intruding in the sea. If they invade the inland, the Rock King needs to deal with it carefully. "
Morax pondered slightly: "What about the east?"
Su Chen laughed: "To the east? Isn't there only Heulia? It doesn't pose any threat to the Rock King."
The largest force in the east is Licheng. Su Chen said this, which means that he will not get involved in the war.
Morax suddenly said: "I heard that Licheng started in Wei Mo and was first called Jibu. The number of Jibu is not more than a thousand. The land is barren and resources are scarce."
Su Chen nodded: "Jibu was indeed like this at first. Although the resources in the Tianheng Mountain area are not bad, disasters often occur, plagues spread, and the people suffer and find it difficult to find a way to survive."
Morax said: "Thanks to your leadership, Jibe is what we are today."
"The words of the Rock King are wrong. Himebu is not alone. Although human beings are weak, their will is as strong as a rock. In this troubled world, we are staggering forward. We have been making progress, inheriting the wisdom of our ancestors, exploring, learning, and then surpassing. So even if Jibu does not appear, there will be other Libu and Barbarian tribes who will stand out.”
"Of course, if you want to survive in this troubled world, it is not enough to rely on human power alone. The rules of the world are like this. On this continent, troubled times rely on gods, and peace depends on people. Gods can protect the country, and people can govern the country."
"Gods can protect the country, but people can govern it..."
Su Chen's words caused Morax to fall into silence for a while.
In fact, he also discovered some problems when he was in charge of Guiliji.
Human beings have their own way of survival. If they interfere too much, it will be detrimental to development.
But if we don't intervene, in troubled times, Guiliji will be targeted by many demons and will be destroyed sooner or later.
He could naturally understand what Su Chen meant.
Without God, peace in troubled times cannot be maintained.
"Actually, since the war, there have been few threats on the land of Liyue, except for the Northern Chilong. For the Rock King, the main threats still come from the sea, Osel, the giant beast Baqiu, and the ones that appeared not long ago. Orobas, the chaos in the sea is far worse than here."
That's not to say that things are stable on land. The main reason is that Morax is too strong and has defeated most of the threats. But in the sea, there are a lot of demons, and there is no absolute king, so it is naturally a bit chaotic.
Morax said: "Chilong is indeed nothing to worry about, but he has been entrenched in the northern area of Dihua Continent for a long time and has many dependent forces. It will not be possible to eliminate them all at once. Among the enemies in the sea, Baqiu is good at fighting but does not understand strategy, and Oro Bass has not been here long, and his intention to compete is not strong. Only Osel is strong and has many family members, so it is a bit difficult to stay overseas. "
It's a bit tricky, which means it's just tricky...Su Chen could hear Morax's absolute confidence from his tone.
Nowadays, in the entire Gu Liyue, there are only a few people who can enter the eyes of this Rock King.
On the sea side, the land side is dominated by Guiliji. The Northern Chilong does not pose much of a threat. On the contrary, Licheng actually worries Morax more.
The three parties worked hard to divide Liyue.
However, Su Chen had no intention of competing for hegemony. All he wanted was to find a place for mankind to live in peace.
And this, Morax also gradually understood while chatting with him.
[You talked with Morax for three days and three nights. During this period, the wine was changed from pot to pot, and the wine and tea were cooked. You knew that being invited this time was not only for the plague, but also for the future of Licheng. 】
[Morax felt your sincerity, and when discussing the general situation of Liyue with you, he felt like heroes commiserating with each other. 】
[Afterwards, you and Morax made an alliance agreement and became allies. 】
[As soon as the news came out, the whole of Liyue was in turmoil. Some of the remaining demon gods left with regret. They knew that there was no possibility of fighting for hegemony here. The remaining ones were still unwilling to give up and lurked in secret to wait for the opportunity. 】
[You ignored these things. After leaving Guiliji, you entered the Minlin area to look for medicine that could solve the plague in Guiliji. 】
[Plagues mostly come from the power of demons. These powers accumulate in the circulation of earth veins, and they are like mutual restraints. If there is a disease, there is medicine to treat it. 】
[Two days later, you found a mountain range. There was still a medicine to cure the plague, called Qingxin. You found it on the cliff, and saw a small hand picking Qingxin and putting it into your mouth. 】
It was a little girl with blue hair.
Chubby, chubby, and very cute.
The big round eyes are bright and lively.
Sitting on the ground, looking sideways, chewing the last bit of Qingxin in his mouth.
"Who are you?" the little girl asked.
Su Chen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "I am the Xuanyuan family, what about you?"
"Gan Yu."
The little girl said crisply.
"Gan Yu...what a nice name, but why are you eating Qingxin here? Is it delicious?"
"It's not delicious." Xiao Ganyu shook his head.
"Then you still eat?"
"Because...because..." Xiao Ganyu looked aggrieved, "Zhenjun Liuyun said that I am too fat. If I don't lose weight, I will get stuck in the devil's throat next time."
"Well..."
Su Chen was a little confused now.
So is it true that Gan Yu choked the devil to death when you were a child?
"But I don't think it's all my fault!" Xiao Ganyu suddenly became very angry.
"If Zhenjun Liuyun's immortal magic hadn't affected me, I wouldn't have fallen... Humph."
Wow so cute.
Su Chen couldn't help but laugh.
Unexpectedly, the next moment Xiao Ganyu burst into tears.
"You, you laughed at me too."
"I'm not laughing at you, I just think you're cute the way you are."
"Really?" Xiao Ganyu tilted his head.
"Of course it's true. I, Xuanyuan, will never laugh at others."
After saying this, Xiao Ganyu's cheers turned into tears.
[Gan Yu introduces you to the situation here. She is a descendant of Qilin. She has lived in the mountains for a long time and practiced with an immortal called 'Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng'. The latter signed a contract with the Rock King Morax, and his name is taboo to you. Already heard about it. 】
