The sound of gurgling water is mixed with the eddies and waves, and under the sunlight, it glows with sparkling brilliance.
"Brother, I'm Xu Shi, what are you saying... I don't know where to start with this?"
Lin Mo had a look of emotion on his face and said softly. His expression was very shocking.
"I am Chen Guang, a native of Nanming County."
The fierce man briefly introduced himself, and seeing Lin Mo's appearance, he felt that his guess was right.
The other party looks like a scholar, but his hair color is unconventional. Judging from his age, he should be in the rebellious stage. At this stage, the mind is the most open-minded and the easiest to accept new things.
In addition, the attendant behind the other party is very powerful at first glance. He is planning to do something big. If he can win him over, maybe he can help him?
Chen Guang's mind was spinning, but a worried look appeared on his bold face, he shook his head and sighed:
"Chixian County has been suffering for a long time. To be precise, it is not only Dazhou that suffers, but also many sects and aristocratic families. For example, Brother Xu, the decree on the reconstruction of the spiritual field that you mentioned is of course very good in its original meaning, but its implementation
Process, haha."
He shook his head and looked at the sparkling river scenery in front of him.
"I once heard that when a county in Huaiping County was implementing the spiritual field reconstruction plan, they plotted against one clan, blamed the other party for stealing the spiritual source, and refused to allow the government to determine the land acres on the spot. Most of the locals knew that this was not the case, but in the end they still remained
To force that clan to rebel every step of the way,
And the funny thing is that it was this rebellion that led to the death of many high-ranking officials in the local government. Haha, you can count yourself suffering the consequences."
Chen Guang said and looked at Lin Mo, "It's just that it's not possible for every family to be as lucky as this family. More often than not, they are framed, framed, and killed to scare the monkeys. That's all. The key is to kill.
Small families and small sects, as well as big families and large sects, are indifferent. Haha, isn’t this ridiculous?..."
Lin Mo was silent.
Huaiping, framed Lingyuan, rebelled...
He seemed to know which clan the other party was talking about as the lucky clan. Isn't it the Lin clan?
Seeing Lin Mo's silence, Chen Guang went on to talk about many similar incidents.
This heavy-headed man had obviously prepared in advance and had written a lot of manuscripts. He spoke a series of words without stuttering. He even quoted from classics and used various parallelisms and sentence structures. He was very good at persuading people.
"Brother Xu, you might as well joke, why do I know this so well? Of course I have carefully collected similar incidents. Because an elder in my family was seriously injured when going out, so when the Category A selection and transfer decree was implemented, he could not accept the transfer, and was later bribed by hostile forces.
The imperial court was also defined as treason, and eventually accumulated over hundreds of years, and turned into water in one day..."
"This... is indeed hateful. My condolences to Brother Chen."
Lin Mo said that based on his understanding of some officials in the imperial court, this kind of behavior is very likely to happen.
It seems acceptable to use heavy scriptures in troubled times and to use medicine for serious illnesses, but this is only if it does not fall on you.
What's more, not to mention the reconstruction of Lingtian, the original intention of the Class A selection was to clean up the disobedient forces, and then use their accumulation to win over the people of the sect...
Lin Mo knew this, but he didn't have much experience because he was a vested interest. When he was in the sect, his monthly salary included this part.
This is also human nature.
"It's all over. What's more, the big events here have also strengthened my determination to pursue big things."
Chen Guang shook his head, looked solemn, pointed at the two people beside him, and finally began to introduce:
"This one's name is Wu Sheng, and this one is the Wu family's sister, Wu Ying. The three of us hit it off in Sitong County, so we came to the south together to look for opportunities and conspire for big things. I don't know where Brother Xu is going.
?”
As he spoke, his eyes were full of expectation.
When Lin Mo saw this, he understood that he was trying to get him to join the gang.
Not caring about the purpose of joining a gang is rebellion.
In fact, in this area, rebellion can be said to be a trend.
only……
"I once heard that there are black Buddhist monks from the south who come to this puja to preach the truth and teach new martial arts. Different from Chixian martial arts, there are also people from other worlds, so I came here to have a look and want to experience it first."
Lin Mo sighed softly.
The rejection is obvious.
If he had only established his destiny, or was in the realm of a master, then at such a young age, he would not have minded if everyone actually did something righteous and uplifting, and played this kind of house trick together.
Yes, in his opinion, this is just playing house.
Of the three of them, the strongest one is not even a grandmaster, and is only half a step into the realm of a grandmaster. If you talk about rebellion, is this not playing house?
With this time, he might as well learn the so-called new method, truly penetrate into the Qianyu Realm, extract its essence, and bless his own body.
"..." Chen Guang was speechless. He suddenly felt that he had guessed wrong.
Looking at Lin Mo's attire and age, he thought he was an upright and passionate young man, but he didn't expect that he was still greedy for life and fearful of death, and he jumped right and left.
'Sure enough, it is difficult to find a true friend in high mountains and rivers. If you want to find a true comrade, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.'
Chen Guang sighed softly. He originally wanted to say something, but after seeing that his brother Wu Sheng showed signs of impatience, he finally kept silent, cupped his hands, and the group left.
"Chen Guang, from now on, I think you must be cautious when recruiting people to join your gang. Many times, the most important thing is the secret. A thousand-mile embankment is destroyed by an ant nest. If you are not careful, you will not be able to achieve great things." Wu Sheng said in a low voice.
said the voice.
"Xiao Sheng, don't worry, don't say it. I just made a mistake this time. Besides, it may not be completely useless. After all, a single spark can start a prairie fire. Just drop a seed. You think so?
Yes, Xiaoying." Chen Guang replied in a low voice with a wry smile.
Xiao Nizi nodded heavily and agreed, but even after leaving, she still occasionally looked at Lin Mo behind her from the corner of her eye.
She seems to be wondering why her hair is red...
Slowly, the footsteps became farther and farther away.
"You are so energetic when you are young." Lin Mo sighed softly.
With his five senses, no matter how low the other party's voice is, it is as if he is conversing in his ear, and he can naturally hear it clearly.
It's just that sometimes, vitality is not necessarily a good thing...
He shook his head and stopped paying attention to anything else, waiting for the passenger ship to finally arrive.
The destination of this transportation line to the south is Size City, which was originally the important city of Sitong County, but was captured by the Black Buddhism at this time and used as a place for teaching.
Whether it is policies or governance methods, they are very similar to the model in Yuzhou and Dahuai. This trip can be regarded as a small insight.
It is also the place where the Black Buddhist Dharma Ceremony is held, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
He is looking forward to it.
March, the forty-ninth year of Qi Guang’s reign in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The Sitong City fire in Huaizhou caused tens of thousands of deaths and injuries. Some of the flames persisted despite the rain and burned all night long.
There will be chaos in the city, and there will be chaos and bandits running rampant in the city.
Pufan, the military leader of Sitong City, sealed the city and implemented military control over the entire city.
The next day, Buddhists from Black Buddhism came to the city, opened a porridge shop and distributed food.
In the morning, noon and evening, Bu Porridge left without stopping.
At the beginning, the city was closed under martial law and no one was allowed to go out.
Two days later, prices in the city skyrocketed, porridge shops outside the city were still there, and riots broke out on Yuanguang Street and Tonglin Street. They were suppressed.
In the next two days, prices continued to increase and there were more unrest in the city.
That night, people gathered together, the east city gate was opened, and the people came out of the city to get food, and they were invincible.
The next day, the grain distribution was still there. At night, the south city gate was opened, and the people came out of the city to get grain. They were invincible.
Three days later, the city gates will be opened, and the people can go out to get food, and they will be invincible.
Finally, seven days later, reinforcements from the imperial court arrived, the food roads were opened, and the porridge shops outside the city were gone.
However, there are black Buddhist teachings spread in the city, saying that the black Buddha ascends to heaven and lives in the world of suffering, and he has been banned for many times.
…
Sitong City, Beicheng District.
As a cluster of warehouses, the streets in Beicheng District are very spacious and can accommodate ten horse-drawn carriages traveling side by side.
The buildings in Yiying also show a wild atmosphere, more rugged than the luxurious and exquisite ones in Nancheng District.
However, at this time, most of the buildings were completely black. Although the fire was out, the tragic situation was not so easy to repair.
At a glance, several streets were in ruins, and every household nearby had white scarves hanging on them, giving them a strong look of sadness.
On the street, a group of burly men wearing golden armor were walking slowly and looking around, accompanied by the third-in-command of Sitong City's general office, Chi Zhongqian.
"The situation that night was really as stated in the letter. Suddenly a fire broke out, the water could not be put out, and the sand could not stop filling it?"
Among the golden-armored sergeants, the leader was a man in white clothes. He had purple hair and red eyes, and a very special appearance. He had a sword on each waist and asked calmly.
"This...yes, sir, the fire that night was very strange. Originally, the warehouse was equipped with a thousand and one peace tanks filled with sinking water to prepare for water leakage, but at that time, it was of no use at all. The fire was terrifying
, swallowing things when you see them, only a martial artist’s will power can withstand them,
Therefore, at the beginning of the update, the best rescue time was missed, resulting in heavy losses." Chi Zhong explained in a deep voice.
"Only mind power can dissipate it. It's a bit like the magic from the Qianyu Realm. The relationship between black Buddhism and Qianyu Realm is well known. Maybe this method comes from there." The man in white said calmly.
said,
"By the way, I have heard that back then, some members of the Lingtai Sect had secret secrets with people from the Black Buddhism?" After he finished speaking, he suddenly changed the subject and asked.
"This... yes, this person is the master of the Qingliang Temple of the Lingtai Sect, but it is not certain whether he is really closely related to the Black Buddhism. That night, he took action and stopped the master of the fire in time. The Black Buddhism protector secretly encountered the monk.
In the end, he joined forces with Lord Pufan to block the sudden appearance of the red lotus demon from the Thousand Feather Realm." Chi Zhong was startled, hesitated for a moment, and said truthfully.
The man in white nodded without saying anything.
In fact, he already knew this information.
During the time they came to Sitong, it was not that they did nothing.
In addition to stabilizing prices and maintaining public order in the city, they also reviewed the situation that night many times.
Now, the situation is quite clear.
The black Buddhists set fire to the city, burned goods warehouses, and cut off several official roads around Sitong City to form a siege.
But instead of attacking the city, they attacked the heart?
Open a warehouse with grain and win back people's hearts?
I don't know what the secret plan is.
As for whether the Lingtai Sect member had anything to do with Black Buddhism, it no longer mattered after he killed An Yu.
The most important thing at this time is undoubtedly the south.
Soon the group finished their inspection and returned to their residence.
The man in white summoned the burliest of the golden-armored sergeants to the courtyard.
This man is three meters tall, wearing specially made gold armor, and has copper bell-like eyes that can intimidate others even without speaking.
But in front of the man in white, he was extremely well-behaved.
"According to the speculation of the Military Aircraft Department, the motive behind the Black Buddhist's action may be to build momentum for the Black Buddha Dharma Conference to be held soon, and to promote the doctrine of salvation from that side, in order to attract people to go to the south.
Pufan will definitely take the responsibility for this fire, and will be transferred from Sitong later. I will recommend you to take over, but you have to be careful. There must be a dark Buddhist shadow in the city at this time.
Haha, of course, there are people like this not only in the city, but also in Huaiping."
The man in white said softly, looking at the southern sky with a complicated expression.
"Thank you so much, Commander! I obey your orders!" The burly man clenched his fist with his right hand, slammed his chest, knelt down on one knee, and replied.
"Then do I need to check the officials here?" he asked subconsciously.
"It depends on you. In fact, the effect is not great, but the evidence must be shown. You can choose a few people to interrogate as appropriate. Of course, even if you find it, if there is no substantial evidence, you can only knock one or two at most, otherwise it is likely to have a counterproductive effect..."
The man in white sighed softly.
"My subordinate understands!"
The burly man hammered his chest again and responded in a deep voice.
After saying this, he stood up and walked out of the courtyard.
The man in white watched the big man walk out, then looked away, shook his head, and sat on the stone bench in the courtyard.
The current situation is changing unpredictably. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a major change that has not happened in eight hundred years. Logically speaking, everyone should work together as one.
It's just that a prince in one state rebelled against his superiors, and there were reckless uprisings in various places below, leaving people speechless.
The most frightening thing is that Wangjing's attitude is ambiguous and confusing.
Under such an attitude, even a person like him doesn't know what to do...
At this time, Lin Mo was having tea in a relatively complete teahouse in Beicheng District.
The business of the huge tea house has not been good recently. It was sunny but there were not many people there.
Not far away, an actor was singing a sad tune called "The South Chamber Club".
Dayi is a tragic story about lovers who face war and chaos, and eventually separate in troubled times. In the end, they get married, and then their families are destroyed, and they meet only when they are old.
The melody is sad and the sound is mournful.
Lin Mo listened, drank tea, and looked at the ruin-like tragic situation below with complicated eyes.
Stay silent.
It's really a large area of ruins.
There was a fire late at night, and one can imagine how heavy the casualties were.
Even the tens of thousands of people above the notification level are not the limit.
The fragility of life is evident at this time.
He sighed softly and put down the tea cup. It was indeed a bit unclear.
The route from Honglian Xushi goes straight down to Size, and the scenery along the way is endless. However, the situation here is unpredictable and makes people helpless.
During this period of time, he watched the chaos in the city gradually arise, riots continued, and the black Buddhists outside the city had unpredictable thoughts and masters appeared frequently, but in the end everything was powerless.
With the soaring prices in the city, it is obvious that more than one bookmaker has taken action in advance. With such effects, even if the Qinglong Society has exhausted its resources, it is no match for it.
The formation of the Black Buddhism outside the city was even more terrifying. That day, he and Pufan could be seen at the top of the city. There were enough people at the True Lord level to be counted in the palm of a hand, and there were also several strange auras on the side.
He has to take this kind of lineup seriously and don't dare to be careless.
This is also the reason why he stopped his activities and continued to practice in seclusion during this period.
Under the real situation, even he seems to be able to do very little.
It seems that the only thing you can really do is practice.
Ding ding ding.
At this moment, footsteps sounded.
"Junior brother, you are here so that I can find you easily."
