Chapter 716: Leader(1/2)
In the first year of Tianbao, Yan Ting swept across Liuhe and established the world.
At this point, the world was unified, and except for a slight war on the border, everything was peaceful.
From the sixth year of Zhengguang in the previous dynasty to the first year of Yanting Tianbao, for more than ten years, the world has been in turmoil and chaos.
Now, the world is finally at peace, and the people are rejoicing and celebrating the hard-won peace.
In the grand ceremony of Cao Su's accession to the throne, he granted amnesty to the whole country and was known as Emperor Gaozu of Yan in history.
The first thing Cao Su did after he ascended to the throne was to change the previous dynasty's city-lord system into a county-governor system.
Originally, the city lord was the most basic official position in the previous dynasty, and it was also an official position with relatively concentrated power. The city lord had strong autonomy in each city. Some powerful city lords could even disobey the palace lord's orders.
Cao Su abolished the city lord system and restored it to the county governor system, changing the lord of a city to the prefect of a county, and the lord of a state to the governor of a state.
Cao Su also carried out a series of reforms in the original complicated official position system, but at the same time he refined the nine-rank official position system.
The nine-rank official position system is an important official position system inherited from the previous dynasty. So where does the selection of officials come from?
Cao Su adopted the same two-examination system of spring and autumn as in the previous dynasty, but on this basis, he added a "military examination" system to select not only civil servants but also military generals.
In order to better select talents, Cao Su expanded the models of Beiwu Academy and Shendu Academy to the whole world.
The schools were still co-organized with local sects, allowing sect forces to participate in the construction of the schools. Cao Su collectively called these schools "Yantang".
At the same time, Cao Su is not opposed to private forces running schools, but the prerequisite is that they must pass a compliance review before they can obtain the corresponding qualifications, and they must be inspected and reviewed by the court every year.
A series of reform measures are traceable.
Cao Su stood on the basis of Youzhou's success and quickly copied the successful experience to the whole world, quickly restoring the vitality of the whole world.
Yan Ting's national power was growing day by day, but within a few months, it was already clear that the country was peaceful and the people were safe.
——
In the south, deep in the mountains.
A towering green mountain, covered with mist.
Hidden in the vast white mist, there is a Taoist temple, quiet and secretive, difficult for ordinary people to find.
Suddenly, I heard a clear "crow" sound coming from the sky, and the giant red-headed bird fell from the sky, looking around vigilantly.
"Whoosh!"
In the dense forest, a golden light suddenly shot out.
The golden light shot up and instantly pierced the body of the big red-headed bird. The big bird screamed and fell to the ground.
A slightly dissatisfied voice came from the dense forest.
"The Eye of Heaven is just a poor monster passing by, why would you want to destroy its life?"
The voice was frivolous and the words were quite provocative. Looking carefully, it turned out to be a young scholar in blue.
Not far from him, there was a strong man wearing a red turban. The strong man put away the faint golden light in his eyes and said with an indifferent expression: "You are teaching me to do things? I can open my heavenly eyes whenever I want. What does it have to do with you?"
"
"Besides, this place is secretive. In addition, my aura is strong and huge, making it difficult for ordinary birds and beasts to approach. How could there suddenly be such a red bird with a ghost head? How could you know that it is not Yan Ting's secret agent? It is better to kill it directly and kill it all."
The scholar in blue sneered again and again: "After all, I was scared to death by Yan Ting. Didn't you say before that when an ordinary man is angry, his body will float thousands of miles away?"
"presumptuous!"
The man in red turban was furious, and there was golden light flashing at the bottom of his eyes. His aura was like a mountain, and he was pressing towards the blue-clothed scholar like a mountain.
The scholar's body has no aura, but it is like a giant island in the sea, unmoving despite the rising wind and waves.
He let out a sneer: "What, you want to silence me too?"
The man in red robe was furious like a volcano erupting. His face was ferocious at this moment, and a golden light was faintly visible in the darkness of his eyes. He seemed to be ready to kill the scholar in blue at any time. The scholar in blue's robe lifted up without any wind, and a green ray suddenly rose above his head.
The light, the green light dissipated, and it turned out to be a book, protecting his whole body and turning rapidly above his head.
"Book of Fate, you actually want to use this book against me?" The man in red hat looked at the scholar in blue in disbelief.
He seemed to not believe that the scholar in blue would bring out such a treasure to deal with him.
The scholar in blue asked curiously: "You are only allowed to be incompetent and furious, but you are not allowed to protect me with books?"
The four words "incompetent and furious" stung the nerves of the man in red. At this moment, he looked extremely crazy and yelled in front of the scholar in blue: "The holy religion is unknown, the Yan court is powerful, and the overall situation of the world has been decided. If
If you weren't timid and refused to go all out to overthrow the Qian and Yuan Dynasty, how could you let Emperor Yan rise and take the world's magic weapon?"
He clearly looked ferocious and crazy, but he expressed his "helplessness" clearly and clearly.
The scholar in blue was about to say something else, but his expression suddenly changed.
The man in red turban then looked up into the sky, and saw a young man in Taoist robes suddenly appeared in the sky. The young man wore a white jade mask, his eyes were as cold as a knife, and he looked down at the two people arguing endlessly below.
As if cold water had been poured on them, the two of them were shaken up and paid homage to the white jade young man.
"Headmaster."
The leader of the Wanping Sect, the great sage and mentor of this generation, has become like a shooting star the leader of the Wanping Sect and the top cultivator in the world.
The young man wearing the white jade mask floated to the ground, and the cold breath on his body was like the spring water of the Nine Netherworld. The two of them felt a sudden cold current around them, making the two people who were already otherworldly couldn't help but shiver.
"Tianyan, Lanyi, Yan Ting has conquered the world. After discussion, the elders of our religion decided to move the Holy Gate to the south of Shiwan Mountain to avoid Yan Ting's influence."
The words of the leader of the Wanping Sect suddenly shocked the two people who had been arguing so much just now.
Moved away? Why?
Even the previous Qian and Yuan Dynasty, at its peak, could not wipe out the Wanping Sect.
The Wanping Sect has been born along with the world. As long as there are injustices in the world, the Wanping Sect will never die.
Why is it that we suddenly have to move out now? Can we not move?
"Headmaster."
The man in red hat was the first to disagree: "Although Yan Ting has taken over the world, we are not without the strength to fight. If Yan Ting insists on annihilating us, thousands of believers can still fight against Yan Ting, so what is there to fear?
?”
The scholar in blue was not as violent as Tianyan, but he also frowned: "Headmaster, the brothers outside are still waiting."
Before he finished speaking, the headmaster wearing a white jade mask suddenly opened his eyes, and the blue light on his body surged. In the field of vision of the two of them, the entire sky seemed to be dyed blue, and a wave so huge that it made their souls tremble.
The breath came from the headmaster's body.
The headmaster said quietly, with a calm tone as if talking to two dead people: "I'm here to tell you and let you know what to do next, not to discuss with you."
At that moment, blue light fell like a sky and covered the sun, and the two of them felt like they were being dragged into the abyss. They had difficulty breathing and their souls were trembling, as if they might lose their lives at any time.
Their faces were dark blue, they were breathing hard, and they couldn't even speak.
This suffocating feeling lasted for a while before gradually fading away.
After this terrible feeling subsided, the two of them opened their eyes.
Only then did I realize that the green color that had just covered the sky and sun had disappeared.
The two of them woke up as if from a dream, gasping for air, their backs all wet, and the terrifying feeling of the aftermath of the disaster still lingering in their hearts.
"Eye of the Sky." The scholar in blue turned pale. He raised his head and looked around, only to find that the headmaster had disappeared.
The red-haired man was not much better than him, and there was no trace of the joy of surviving the disaster on his face: "The strength of the headmaster"
Why is the strength of the headmaster getting stronger and stronger? Ever since the fight with Wuchenzi, I can’t understand the strength of the headmaster more and more. The low profile of the Wanping sect seems to be like the calm before the storm, and all of them
Everyone is like a small boat on the sea, in danger of being swallowed up by the angry waves at any time.
Both of them lost their temper. After a long time, they ducked away and left the dense forest.
——
To the south of Lizhou, there are hundreds of thousands of mountains.
Lizhou is the southern end of the world, and further south is the Shiwan Mountains.
Shiwandashan is always full of miasma and monsters are rampant. It is not suitable for ordinary people to live. Even accomplished Qi and blood warriors will not easily set foot in Shiwandashan.
This place is too remote, and the place is full of miasma and swamp gas, so there is nothing worthwhile for warriors to come here.
The only reason worth coming is that there are a large number of monsters hidden here. In the hundreds of thousands of mountains, there are monsters that have been hidden for thousands of years or even longer.
Monsters are full of treasures, especially low-level warriors. If they can be assisted by monster flesh and demon pills, it will be easier for them to accumulate energy and blood.
Qi and blood are the foundation of martial arts. Strong Qi and blood means a strong foundation, and the success rate of breaking through the power realm will be higher in the future.
Deep in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, somewhere in a hidden mountain.
There are formation flags all over the cave. The formation flags cover up the secrets in the cave. Ordinary ascetics will not notice the difference here if they scan it with their spiritual consciousness. Only the top ascetics use some special magic weapons to
Only then could we discover that the landscape of this place had been changed.
In the cave, there are psychic mountain people dancing with torches. Their faces are painted with strange oil paint, and they dance in strange and rhythmic dances. Their bodies send out a certain kind of special signal.
High on the mountain wall, the headmaster of the Wanping Sect wearing a white jade mask looked coldly at the channeling ceremony below.
"Headmaster, I didn't expect that people from the He tribe in Lishan could really communicate with immortals."
