Chapter 479: The surprise brought by Ji Hong, hearing about Xue Zijing for the first time

~9 min read 1,609 words

Bang...

"From March of the ninth year of Does Does Da Xia to now, it's been almost four years, right?"

On the top floor of the Shigui Restaurant, in a private room behind the high platform of the round hall, Xia Hong sat alone by the window, and the thirteen people including Jiang Xinfan all stood on both sides.

Seeing Zhang Yuchuan lead Ji Hong in, Xia Hong waved his hand slightly, first using his energy to close the door, then slightly releasing some Qi and blood energy to fill the room, and finally looked at Ji Hong, feeling a bit touched.

"The subordinate was taken away from Hong Sect by Chen Yiqing on the second day of March in the ninth year of Does Does Da Xia. It has been three years and eight months, a full 1323 days..."

Ji Hong walked to Xia Hong while speaking. After saying 1323 days, he knelt down with a thud, and the emotions he had suppressed for a long time finally couldn't help but explode, his eye sockets instantly turned red:

"Subordinate Ji Hong, greetings to the Lord!"

1323 days, even the time is remembered so clearly...

Xia Hong naturally wouldn't question Ji Hong's loyalty to Does Does Da Xia. He sighed because Ji Hong remembered the time so clearly, which showed that he was taken away from Hong Sect by Chen Yiqing, then traveled a long distance to Chen Cang, and then stayed in Chen Cang for so long. Every day, I'm afraid, was like a year.

It's not strange. Chen Yiqing is his irreconcilable enemy who killed his sister. Xia Hong is no stranger to the Ji Hong and Ji Jiang siblings. He knows very well that Ji Hong's personality is a bit paranoid and extreme. If there are no accidents, Ji Hong will definitely vent his anger for his sister's death on the entire Chen Cang.

"Get up!"

Xia Hong looked at Ji Hong's slightly red eye sockets and smiled: "I remember you are only three years younger than me. You shouldn't be thirty this year. That year, during the disaster of the Earth Slope Wood Puppet Strange Monster, you and your sister had the heart to die. I also let Xia Chuan go to persuade you, right?"

That year, it was the Lord who let the Secretary come to persuade me!

Ji Hong's expression was stunned, and the hot tears in his eye sockets could no longer be suppressed, flowing directly down his cheeks, his face full of regret: "The Lord gave our siblings a second life, but Ji Hong was young and ignorant, and still couldn't protect his sister, letting A-Jiang be harmed by Chen Yiqing..."

People will grow up. Almost four years have passed. While Ji Hong's hatred has grown day by day, his understanding of his sister Ji Jiang's death has naturally become deeper.

Looking back now, the root of his sister's death lies in his lack of defense against outsiders. He remembers very clearly that Chen Yiqing first approached him on the eve of the Hong Sect Battle in the eighth year of Does Does Da Xia. The encounter outside the city, the chat at the Zhao Restaurant, his own loose-lipped talk, was the source of all the disasters.

The more he realized this, the more Ji Hong suffered in his heart. He could only let the hatred in his heart grow constantly, so that he could numb himself, so that he could live with hope in the days to come.

"... Ji Hong knows that his sins are heavy. Three years ago, he was taken to Chen Cang by Chen Yiqing, and he didn't think about anything else, focusing on collecting intelligence on the four feudal towns, one for my Does Does Da Xia, to be a vanguard for unifying the Moao River in the future, to scout the enemy's situation first; and two to destroy Chen Cang, to help his sister A-Jiang take revenge."

Xia Hong actually already understood the matter of the Ji Hong siblings deeply, but listening to Ji Hong's statement full of regret, plus the two goals he set for staying in Chen Cang, he looked up at this young man who was only three years younger than him, and his heart was still slightly moved.

He thought for ten breaths, and finally sighed slightly: "The injustice has a head, the debt has a master. Your enemy is Chen Yiqing, actually you don't have to vent your anger..."

"Lord, please look..."

Being interrupted by Ji Hong, Xia Hong didn't look at the things he handed over, but looked up and met his eyes. When he saw the firmness and determination in Ji Hong's eyes, he thought for a moment and gave up the idea of persuading him.

People live, in the end, they have to have some thoughts.

Without this monstrous hatred as a driving force, with Ji Hong's feelings for his sister, how could he hold on for so long in a place like Chen Cang.

Venting his anger for Ji Jiang's death on the entire Chen Cang is too paranoid. Ji Hong might not know it, but in the final analysis, Ji Jiang is already dead. Even if he kills Chen Yiqing, he can't save her.

Ji Hong is setting himself an impossible goal, using it as a reason for himself to continue living in the future!

"Sigh..."

Xia Hong sighed slightly in his heart and didn't say anything more.

He couldn't point it out to Ji Hong either. In the final analysis, it was the matter Chen Yiqing created himself. He shouldn't have provoked these two siblings with a bumpy fate.

Future matters, talk about them in the future!

What Ji Hong took out from his body was a beast skin scroll folded many times.

Xia Hong unfolded the beast skin scroll completely and spread it on the table in front of him, his pupils instantly shaking violently.

That beast skin scroll was a giant map, a map covering the four feudal towns of the Moao River. To the north, He Cang, in the middle, Cai Qiu, and to the east, Wei Bo, these three feudal towns only outlined the contours of each county and the location of the large cities, including part of the terrain; and what made Xia Hong unable to move his eyes the most was Chen Cang in the southwest direction.

Ji Hong has been in Chen Cang for more than three years, and it is reasonable for him to have the most complete control over Chen Cang's situation. It can be seen from the map now.

The Chen Cang feudal town on the map not only has the detailed locations of the five counties and seven cities along with Chen Cang City, but even the distances are clearly marked, and the specific terrain and mountains, rivers, and lakes of the entire territory, and even mountain roads and small roads, and the number of slave status villages are all noted.

Not only that, the specific locations of the large armies garrisoned in various places, the military types and numbers of soldiers, the commanders and their cultivation strength, and even the personality preferences of these commanders, and their background origins, are all marked.

Chen Cang's map is even detailed to the west side of the Blood Miasma Plain, a position called the Nine-Curve Blood Corridor. Xia Hong saw it very clearly. The Nine-Curve Blood Corridor is built along the west bank of the Yanze Lake, on the side of the Moao Mountain body. Passing through here, you can reach a position called Danxue Peak. After passing Danxue Peak and going south, you can reach the Dongchuan Jurisdiction of Beishuo Town.

"Good, good, good, Ji Hong, you did a good job!"

Xia Hong was excited in his heart, and even slightly lost his color, saying three good words in a row, looking up at Ji Hong, his pupils full of appreciation.

The surprise brought by Ji Hong was simply too big.

He suddenly thought of something, and also took out a beast skin scroll from his body. After unfolding the beast skin scroll, it was a map of Cai Qiu.

But this map of his only marked the locations of the four counties and seven cities of Cai Qiu, and the more detailed ones, involving terrain and garrison, as well as some more secret situations, were only Qinghua and Linchu cities, plus a part of the Blood Miasma Plain area, which could not be compared with the one Ji Hong took out at all.

"I came to Cai Qiu from the Bone-Erosion Path in August of the ninth year of Does Does Da Xia. My footprints only reached Qinghua and Linchu. Because my identity was sensitive, I didn't dare to investigate these territories in detail. Your map is much better than mine. With this map, even if we don't talk about future wars with Chen Cang, just having this map now, Does Does Da Xia has already occupied the first opportunity. Great, great..."

Hearing Xia Hong's slightly excited tone, although Ji Hong's face also showed a thick smile, in fact, there was no big wave in his heart.

"The Lord forgot, before the subordinate came to Chen Cang, I had already become an official member of the scout camp of the Dragon Martial Army. The subordinate knows the importance of the map. In these three years, besides investigating Chen Cang's strength, all the remaining energy was almost spent on this map, and as the subordinate's status in Chen Cang gets higher and higher, this map can continue to be improved." ===== CHAPTER 480 =====
