On February 6, 932 in the Black Iron Calendar, Zhang Tie's flying boat finally landed slowly in the airport of Xuanyuan Hill.
Even with Bian Heng's knowledge, when he saw Xuanyuan Hill in the sky, the whole person was so shocked that he didn't come back to his senses, it was Zhang Tie who called him, he reacted, and followed Zhang Tie towards the door of the flying boat, ready to step off the flying boat.
This time, in addition to Bian Heng, only Zhang Tie's eldest son Zhang Chenglei, as well as Zhang Tie's cousin Zhang Su, the rest of the Jinwutang and Iron Dragon Sect, and the daughters of the Yin Yang Sect who Zhang Tie placed in the Black Iron Castle, did not follow.
The daughters of the Yin Yang Sect are now in the Black Iron Castle, they are very busy, their daily lives are very fulfilling, and they have no time to take care of other things, and now the holy war has not stopped, and the women do not want to come out for the time being, so Zhang Tie also let them toss in the Black Iron Castle, and Yan Feiqing and the rest of the family, because Zhang Tie came to Xuanyuan Hill this time to discuss and decide on the holy war between Taixia and the human race, not to swim in the water, and they are not suitable to follow Zhang Tie together, so they stayed in Youzhou.
Before the hatch of the flying boat was officially opened, a sudden rumbling noise from outside the flying boat made Bian Heng startled for an instant, and the protective battle qi on his body suddenly reacted, "There is an assassin" "It's not an assassin, it's a salute," Zhang Tie told Bian Heng with a smile.
"Salute, what is that?"
asked Bian Heng strangely.
There is no salute in the world of skyscrapers, so Bian Heng is very unfamiliar with this kind of etiquette.
The sound of the salute outside was still thundering, and the "bang", "bang" and "bang" kept ringing, and Zhang Tie took the opportunity to explain to Bian Heng what a salute was and the purpose of the salute.
"Strange, weird" Bian Heng couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, with an incredulous expression, "According to you, this cannon was originally a big killing weapon in the battlefield, but I didn't expect that it would eventually become a ritual weapon, and it is really rare to use the cannon to welcome people."
"This tradition was not originally Chinese, but originated in the Western continent, and I estimate that the cannon is used as a ritual weapon, and it is also the same as the Chinese people use weapons such as axes as ceremonial weapons."
The salute of this era is very different from the salute before the cataclysm, the salute of the black iron era is completely pressurized with steam and quickly released to achieve the effect of making a loud noise, in order to be louder, the barrel of the salute is also processed with rune technology, which can make the sound amplify the effect, the gun carriage of the salute is a specially made behemoth, these things can only be seen in Xuanyuan Hill, this is the honor guard of Taixia.
In order to welcome Zhang Tie's arrival, a flying boat take-off and landing site of more than 20,000 meters has been emptied in this airport, and a whole phalanx of salutes is parked not far away, and salutes are being released in a neat and orderly manner.
The flags in the airport are like a forest, the crowds are crowded, and almost all the big people gathered in Xuanyuan Hill are all there.
The royal family sent three princes over, the three princes, standing at the front and middle of the crowd, on the left hand side of the three princes, is the Taixia Manchu Dynasty civil and military represented by the three princes and nine kings, and on the right hand side of the three princes, is the Chinese nobles represented by the six thrones of Taixia.
At this moment, almost all the officials above the third rank gathered in the Xuanyuan Hill Imperial Court have already come to greet Zhang Tie here.
The reason why it is said is that it is because among the important ministers of the Three Princes and Nine Qings, there are still two people who have not come, those two people, one is the Great Situ Meng Shidao of Taixia, and the other is the Tingweiqing Li Yunji Li who is in the Xuanyuan Hill Prison.
The reason why Meng Shidao did not come to greet Zhang Tie was that he was ill, and Li Yunji, the court commander, was the most unlucky, he was majestic in Youzhou that day, and the flying boat he took had not yet sailed back to Xuanyuan Hill, and he was still halfway through, he had been ordered to take it down by a commander of the Shangshen Ce Army, and was directly escorted back to Xuanyuan Hill and put in prison.
As for the golden talisman that Ting Weiqing Li Yunji took out in Youzhou that day, it was also proved to be "fake", and since Li Yunji was imprisoned, Taixia Jiuqing's position as Tingweiqing has been vacant.
Among the princes of Taixia, in addition to the King of Xianhai, the King of Guangnan, the King of Xuanwu, the King of Jingtian, the King of Dingxi, and the King of Yi'an all arrived, and the people of the five princes stood in the front row, and after the five princes, they were the dukes, marquises, and nobles of the earl level of Taixia, and under the earl, they were not even qualified to stand here at this moment.
Bai Runtian, the king of Guangnan, stood in the middle of the five princes, looking forward to Zixiong, King Xuanwu, King Jingtian, King Dingxi, and King Yi'an, and the four princes stood on both sides of Bai Runtian, King of Guangnan, and several princes looked at the king of Guangnan with envy in their eyes.
Originally, among the five princes, except for the Cao family, the king of Dingxi, whose power declined slightly for various reasons, the rest of the Xuanwu King Lu family, the Jingtian King Sun family, and the Qin family of Yi'an Wang were not worse than the Bai family of Guangnan Wang, everyone is a level of wealthy families, especially the Qin family of Yi'an Wang, although the foundation of the Qin family is in Xuanyuan Hill, it seems that there is not much territory, but because the Qin family controls the largest Xuanyuan Bank in Taixia, the influence of Xuanyuan Bank is all over Taixia, and the power of the Qin family is vaguely the head of the five kings.
But this is already a thing of the past, now, because Zhang Tie is the son-in-law of Bai Runtian, the king of Guangnan, so Bai Runtian has naturally become the head of the five kings, and no one can object.
And in the Taixia royal family, standing behind the civil and military nobles of the Manchu Dynasty are the ministers and ambassadors from the Western Continent and various subcontinents in Xuanyuan Hill, and even kings and princes, these people of all colors and various costumes are gathered together at this moment, and the number of these people alone is more than 3,000.
In the sound of the salute, everyone stood quietly and solemnly, looking forward to it.
Such a grand scene has not appeared in Xuanyuan Hill for at least a hundred years.
After the one hundred and eight salutes were fired, with the long horn of the honor guard sounding, the hatch of the Xuanyuan-class flying boat slowly opened, and Zhang Tiecai slowly walked out of the flying boat with Bian Heng and stepped onto the red carpet on the ground.
The three princes of the royal family walked up together and greeted Zhang Tie.
The three princes who came to greet Zhang Tie were Xuanyuan Changqing, the eldest prince of the Taixia royal family, Xuanyuan Changhong, the sixth prince, and Xuanyuan Feng, the eighteenth prince.
These three princes, Xuanyuan Changqing is already a knight of the sky, and Xuanyuan Changhong and Xuanyuan Feng are already phantom knights, but it is a pity that the three of them are not cultivating the emperor-level Xuanyuan God Transformation Sutra.
Zhang Tie has never seen the Xuanyuan Divine Transformation Sutra, but he heard that the conditions for cultivating the Xuanyuan Divine Transformation Scripture are very harsh, and the qualifications required are also very unusual, because of this, among all the princes of the Xuanyuan Emperor, not all of them are qualified to cultivate the Xuanyuan Divine Transformation Sutra, and the princes who can really cultivate the Xuanyuan Divine Transformation Sutra and can also advance to the knights are only the crown prince, the third prince and the nine princes.
It's just that the current three people, the crown prince was assassinated, the three princes were killed by themselves, and the nine princes were involved in the three major sects and the Imperial Dao Alliance, and they have been imprisoned, and the entire royal family seems to be withered, and no one can stand in the foreground anymore.
Or it seems too harsh to say withering, in all fairness, as the bloodline of Emperor Xuanyuan, the three princes standing in front of him at this moment are all heroes for a while, and their qualifications and abilities should be the best choice, if they are put elsewhere, it is not difficult to make a difference if they want to get ahead, but the three of them are princes, in the Xuanyuan Hill, a place where heroic elites gather, from the day they were judged by Emperor Xuanyuan to be unable to cultivate the Xuanyuan God Transformation Sutra and taught to practice other exercises, It is destined that it will be difficult for them to get ahead in Xuanyuan Hill in this life, let alone be able to climb the treasure.
After the three princes and Zhang Tie finished saluting, the three princes stood sideways, a young woman with red eyes and a three-screen phoenix crown on her head and a young man with a handsome face and a calm temperament led a seven or eight-year-old boy wearing golden royal costumes from the royal family to the front, and the three of them bowed to Zhang Tie at the same time and touched the ground with their foreheads.
"Xuanyuan Yunfei has seen his father-in-law" "Shi Ni has seen her father" "Xuanyuan Zhu has seen his grandfather" The seven or eight-year-old boy knelt down and worshiped Zhang Tie, raised his dark eyes, and quietly looked at Zhang Tie with smart and wise eyes.
