There are two levels of hierarchy in the underworld.
One is the system of King Yama that is spread in the underworld. It has Yama and the judge, as well as the bull-headed and horse-faced underworld. However, this system is a system that connects the underworld and the yang world.
After people in the underworld die, they first enter the underworld outside this system. However, after the ghosts accept the punishment, those ghosts who are unwilling to reincarnate settle down in the underworld and enter another system.
This system is a system in which the strong is respected.
Within the underworld, the space where these ghosts live is divided into five domains. As for whether the five domains are divided based on area or population, Fang Ming does not know this yet, but among the five domains, the most powerful one is the domain lord.
.
The Domain Lord is the most powerful ghost in a domain.
But it is precisely because of this that if there is a ghost in a certain domain who is stronger than the domain lord, then he will naturally become the new domain lord. However, in the five domains that have existed for so many years, there has never been a ghost who is stronger than the domain lord.
The reason is very simple. How could those domain lords allow people who are stronger than them to appear under their noses?
For those who are extremely talented, the five domain lords will usually take them under their command and make them their trusted subordinates. Until one day the old domain lord abdicates, and it is the new domain lord's turn to take over.
If those geniuses are not willing to be subdued, then the result of waiting for these geniuses will naturally be to be wiped out by the domain master.
Of course, Fang Ming still doesn't know how long a domain lord lasts, because even Meng Xuefeng himself doesn't know. At least what is certain is that this is an extremely long period of time.
But the situation in the Western Region is a bit special. Fifteen years ago, a genius ghost cultivator suddenly appeared in the Western Region. No one knew the origin and background of this genius. At that time, the Western Region Lord also wanted to conquer this genius, but was defeated by this genius.
The genius refused.
After being rejected, the Western Region Lord directly issued a killing order for the genius. However, at that time, the Western Region Lord relied on his identity and did not take action personally. Instead, he sent his men to hunt down the genius.
You know, the Territory Lord's men are all the top strong men in the territory, but who knew that this genius would always escape and grow rapidly in the crisis of near death. Three years ago, that genius
His strength has grown to a terrifying level. In the entire Western Region, no one except the Territory Lord is his opponent.
A genius who has been ordered to kill by the domain lord is not worthy of the attention of the major forces. However, when this genius has the strength to compete with the domain lord, some forces cannot sit still.
All smart people know that if a society wants to reshuffle its classes, it can only change and break the original ruling class. Just like the direct contradiction between the emerging classes and the old classes born due to the industrial revolution abroad, which finally led to
The war brought about a complete class reshuffle.
This point also applies to the underworld.
The five realms of the underworld have existed for a long time, and many established forces have been born. These forces occupy 90% of the resources in the five realms, and those newly rising forces can only fight for the remaining %.
ten.
It's not that these emerging forces are not opponents of the established forces, but because the five domain owners will not let chaos occur within their jurisdiction, so they have set up a management system. As long as this management system is not broken, these emerging forces will
It is difficult to gain power.
It was under this situation that when they realized that the genius had grown up to compete with the domain lord, the emerging forces became excited and chose to join the genius one after another to form a new force and fight with the Western Region.
The old forces led by the Territory Lord started the war.
This war lasted for three years, and the entire Western Region could be said to be in raging war. It was not until recently that the Western Region Territory Lord was defeated by that genius, which marked the end of this war.
The defeat of the lord of the Western Region and the birth of a new lord originally had nothing to do with the other four regions, because for the other four regions, who is the lord of the Western Region does not affect their respective rule.
But the strange thing is that the Western Region Territory Lord somehow managed to persuade the two Territory Lords of the Southern Territory and the Northern Territory, and the two Territory Lords decided to jointly send troops to conquer the new Territory Lord of the Western Region.
The Western Region, which has experienced long-term wars, has been severely damaged. How can it be the opponent of the two regions? Therefore, in this case, the new lord of the Western Region directly used large-scale means to blockade the entire Western Region. At this moment, the Western Region is completely separated from the outside world.
Isolated.
As for how the new domain master accomplished this, Fang Ming didn't know, because Meng Xuefeng himself didn't know either, but he only guessed that it might have something to do with the division of the five domains.
"Brother Qin, to be honest, the Territory Lord has agreed to send troops to conquer the Western Regions. This matter will not change. As for what factors are involved, that is not something we at the bottom can know."
Meng Xuefeng looked at Fang Ming, with a wry smile on his old face. A sixth-grade powerhouse and a county governor, in the eyes of ordinary ghost cultivators, he was already a towering figure. But only Meng Xuefeng himself knew that in the entire Southern Territory, he was the most powerful person in the world.
There are not only one thousand but also eight hundred level experts.
Moreover, this is only on the surface. It is rumored that the domain lords of each domain have powerful powers hidden in the dark, so the number of these sixth-grade experts will only increase.
"Brother, I guess this will be the case in my life, but Brother Qin, you are different. Brother Qin, you are extremely talented, and you have also survived the most difficult thunder catastrophe for all of us ghost cultivators. Your potential is unparalleled. Now the Territory Lord is in Guangzhou
If you accept the strong, Brother Qin, you will definitely be appreciated by the Territory Lord."
After hearing Meng Xuefeng's words, Fang Ming finally understood why Meng Xuefeng was so humble towards himself. It was all because this was a special period.
The Western Region blockade does not mean that this cross-region battle will disappear. On the contrary, the Western Region blockade gives both sides of this cross-region war sufficient preparation time. When the blockade is lifted, it will be the time for the three-region war.
"There has been an order from above, which is to find the top experts in each realm in this region to recommend. As the governor of a county, I also have four quotas."
Meng Xuefeng is a strong person of the sixth level, so he can recommend the best from the third level to the sixth level. He can recommend one person from each level.
Originally, Meng Xuefeng only planned to use three quotas, because the location of this county was very remote and he was the only one with a sixth-grade powerhouse, so the quota for recommending a sixth-grade powerhouse could not be used at all.
But now because of Fang Ming's appearance, Meng Xuefeng can use this quota. Of course, he has his own reasons for being so concerned. This is an order from above. If he completes it, he can naturally get it.
Commendation.
Fang Ming's face showed a thoughtful look, and he was considering the pros and cons of this matter.
Introduced by Meng Xuefeng, he can enter the higher-level vision of the underworld, the more powerful people he can come into contact with, and the more likely he is to find out about his father, and he is not worried that his identity will be discovered.
Because the Western Region is already sealed off, there won't be any problems with the identity he fabricated in the short term.
"Since Brother Qin has agreed, I will report it to the Mountain Lord's Mansion right now. When Brother Qin goes to the Mountain Mansion, he will surely soar into the sky. Don't forget about me then."
In front of Fang Ming, Meng Xuefeng did not have the majesty of a county governor at all. If other people in the county saw this, their jaws would probably drop, because in their hearts, the county governor has always been dignified and silent, let alone
He has a smile on his face, and even saying a few more words is rare.
This is the change brought about by lower levels.
In Meng Xuefeng's eyes, he is the strongest and has the highest status in the entire county. Naturally, he doesn't bother to look down upon those who are weaker than him and have a lower status than him. This is called the majesty of a superior.
This is the difference between the underworld and the yang world. The higher ups in the yang world are more amiable when they face the bottom, because they want to maintain a people-friendly image, while in the underworld, naked strength is respected. Everything is based on strength, and there is no need to make these appearances.
effort.
"Brother Qin is going to Shanfu. I wonder if he has any friends in this county. As the governor of this county, I can naturally take care of him."
,
Meng Xuefeng is about to form a good relationship with Fang Ming. He knows very well what being a sixth-grade ghost cultivator who can survive the punishment of heaven represents. It means that the future is limitless, at least not something he can compare with.
In addition, although he did not know what the upper management was thinking, Meng Xuefeng could probably deduce that the superiors were asked to select the best from each realm to form a team, and this team was most likely to be an elite team to conquer the Western Regions.
Such a team is the most capable of making meritorious deeds. Of course, the risks are also high, but if it survives, it will definitely become a high-level leader in this area in the future. By then, even if he, a little county guard, wants to curry favor, he will not have a chance.
Marrying someone before they become successful is something a smart person would do, and Meng Xuefeng is such a smart person.
To put it bluntly, even if Fang Ming had an accident in the end, there would be no loss for Meng Xuefeng, because taking care of him was just something he could do with a little effort.
"I didn't want to trouble my brother, but I do have a merciless request." Fang Ming had an embarrassed look on his face.
"Brother Qin, it's okay to say it."
"I was accidentally teleported here. I was physically injured at first. I rested in Wangshan Village for a while. Thanks to the careful care of the woman Qu Chipeng in Wangshan Village, I also accepted Qu Zixuan as my maid."
"It is that little girl's honor to be accepted as a maid by Brother Qin." Meng Xuefeng said with a smile.
"The key is that Qu Chipeng and his daughter do not have household registration in the underworld. I am leaving this county again..."
"I understand, brother Qin, don't worry, this matter will be taken care of by me."
Meng Xuefeng smiled and agreed. With his status, it was not difficult to obtain two underworld household registrations. He only needed to give instructions.
"Of course that girl from the Qu family will go to Shanfu with Brother Qin. Then Brother Qu Chipeng, I will arrange a position for him as the town leader, and he can live a comfortable life. As long as he stays in this county for one day, he will
The position of town leader cannot be replaced."
After the relationship ended, Meng Xuefeng was finally willing to pay the investment cost.
