Chapter 415 Undercurrent

Chapter 415 Undercurrent
The so-called people outside the Great Wall are actually a general term.

It can be mainly divided into three parts, namely Southern Xinjiang, Western Regions and Northern Lands.

Compared with the first two, the people in the Central Plains have the least aversion to the people in the North, because the people in the North were originally from the Central Plains.

They are mainly refugees who have fled there, exiled criminals and local nomadic peoples.

Of course, this minimal aversion is only relative. The North is still eyeing the Central Plains and is planning to come back at any time.

Originally, it was thought that the activities of the Sirius Cult in the Central Plains were already a big deal. Recently, traces of people from southern Xinjiang were discovered. This time, Sun Wei said that a group of people from the north were planning to cause trouble.

After hearing this news, Yang Yiyi felt like her CPU was about to burn out. What on earth is this trying to do?
No matter how much Yang Yiyi disliked Sun Wei, he was from the Central Plains. Compared with people from outside the Great Wall, he was still more handsome to Yang Yiyi, so Yang Yiyi hurriedly asked him about it.

But no matter how he was asked, Sun Wei refused to reveal a single word, as if he was just here to remind people that a group of people from the North had sneaked in and they had to be careful, and he wouldn't say anything else.

After finishing a pot of tea, Sun Wei chose to say goodbye decisively. Before leaving, he also said that he would also participate in the Young Heroes Conference and was looking forward to fighting with Miss Yang.

Yang Yiyi suddenly lost the mood to continue shopping. She suddenly felt like a small fry like her was in big trouble. She quickly took the things she bought and went back to inform Li Yingluo and the others.

Sun Wei suddenly appeared and gave some inexplicable information. Li Yingluo and Zheng Yinping's first reaction was that they could not believe it.

After all, Liuzhou State is still far away from the North, and it is a bit far-fetched for people from the North to come here to cause trouble, not to mention that the words of Sun Wei, the spy chief, are not credible.

But if you calm down and think about it carefully, it may not be nonsense.

Most people in the north are from the Central Plains. They look exactly like people from the Central Plains and cannot be distinguished from them by appearance. Since there is no household registration management system such as ID cards, it is difficult to tell whether there are people from the north among the people walking on the street.

In addition, when Yang Yiyi faced Liu Tianquan not long ago, as the largest stronghold of the Sirius Cult, there were only two and a half pieces of the Sky-supporting Stone.

At that time, people suspected that they had moved the Sky-supporting Stone in advance, and the people from the Sixteen Villages even went to southern Xinjiang to chase them.

But what if the people of the Sirius Cult did not return to the Western Regions via southern Xinjiang, but took the water route?
Going out to sea by water on a large ship can indeed avoid inspections, but if you take this route, you will inevitably pass through the north.

Coupled with Sun Wei's reminder this time, Li Yingluo suddenly thought in her mind, could there be some connection between the southern border, the western regions and the north, or could they simply unite?

When this thought came to my mind, I was shocked. If there really was a connection, once the war broke out again, the Central Plains would be attacked by three parties.

From the perspective of the people in the martial arts world, the Central Plains martial arts world needs to be vigilant about the covert activities of outsiders. But from the perspective of the imperial court, if the three parties unite, a war of national destruction will inevitably break out.

This has gone beyond the scope of one or a few people. Li Yingluo quickly wrote a letter to her father who was the Situ. Liuzhou Kingdom was indeed very concerned about the affairs of the Sirius Cult, but they had not thought that Southern Xinjiang and the North would also be related to the Sirius Cult, so they must be reminded.

As for what Sun Wei said, why the people from the north were active in Luancheng, the three of them studied it for a long time and only came up with one answer.

Princess Mingzhu.

But then again, Princess Mingzhu came to Luancheng on a whim, and there were only a few days from the decision to the departure, which was not enough time for the news to spread to the north, let alone arrange people to harm Princess Mingzhu. Unable to figure out why, the three could only notify the palace guards in charge of security to be more careful. Now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, so we can only take it one step at a time.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

No matter how turbulent the undercurrents are in Luan City, time waits for no one. Two days later, on the Lantern Festival, the Young Heroes Conference will officially open.

The venue is a huge crossroads in the center of Luancheng City, which is sealed on all four sides, with eight arenas set up on the open space in the center.

Since this is a triennial event, the arena was already crowded with people waiting for the time to start.

Princess Mingzhu has a special status, she can't just stand there and watch with a bunch of gangsters, so the local government specially arranged a terrace on the second floor of a merchant's shop for her. It is safe here, and she can see clearly what is happening on the arena. Fruits, candied fruits, tea and snacks are all prepared.

The palace guards checked the place in advance and sent people to stake out nearby places where crossbows might be fired at the princess. It can be said that all dangerous situations were taken into consideration.

After everything was ready, Princess Mingzhu, Li Yingluo and Zheng Yinping were allowed to enter together.

Yang Yiyi didn't stay with them. Besides the fact that she was a contestant and had to go down often, the difference in status would also make it unfavorable for her to stay with them.

On the surface, the imperial court and the martial arts world do not interfere with each other. If Yang Yiyi is around, the martial arts heroes below will see everything clearly, and there is a possibility that rumors will spread like "I didn't expect that Miss Yang, you are actually a lackey of the imperial court."

Although the relationship between Yang Yiyi and Li Yingluo can be easily discovered, it is just a layer of window paper. As long as it is not made a big deal, no one will break it. If you express it openly in formal occasions, don't blame people for gossiping.

Naturally, the one who realized this was not Yang Yiyi, but Li Yingluo and Zheng Yinping. Yang Yiyi did not have such a delicate mind.

So Yang Yiyi is now with Tang Lianyu, also on a terrace, but the view from the terrace is not as clear as from Princess Mingzhu's place.

By the way, registration for the Young Heroes Conference requires pre-selection, and there will be some simple tests on physical fitness, such as weightlifting and long-distance running, and registration must be done one month in advance.

If Yang Yiyi came by herself, she would have no chance to play and could only watch from below. However, with Princess Mingzhu around, it was only a matter of words to arrange a place for Yang Yiyi to jump the queue.

It was three quarters past noon when the person in charge of hosting the Young Heroes Conference started shouting with a loudspeaker made of a rolled iron sheet. In short, it was some official language like "selecting talents for the country" and "stop when you have reached the limit" and then the meeting would begin immediately.

Although it is a ring competition, it is not an elimination tournament, but a points system.

You get one point for winning a game, you advance if you get three points, and you will be completely disqualified if you lose three points.

As for who the opponent is, that is entirely up to the government.

Theoretically speaking, the good boys from good families who come to participate in the Young Heroes Competition and try to take the exam for the martial arts champion do not necessarily have to win the championship. There is a group of people dressed as generals under the arena. They will score the good boys from good families who are taking the exam. If they perform well, they will still take part in the next level of the exam even if they are eliminated.

But for the people in the martial arts world, there must always be a winner, and everyone is already rubbing their hands, ready to fight...
