On Wanjuan Mountain, there is bleaching everywhere. From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, white silk is hung on both sides of the mountain road.
Li Xingzai climbed up the steps and walked slowly. In this season, there are still some scenery to see when climbing and watching the sea.
On both sides of the mountain road, in addition to Bai Ling being blown up by the wind, there were also academy disciples kneeling neatly.
In the past, Li Xingzai would not have received this kind of treatment. It was already a great honor for him that the former master of the academy was willing to lower his rank to welcome him. However, things are different now. The master is dead and the academy is in decline. It is far from prosperous.
Time is comparable.
Today, the academy's reputation was severely trampled on by Li Xingzai, and perhaps, there will never be a chance to stand up again in the future.
Of course, they did not gain Li Xingzai's respect by doing so, but they felt even more disdainful. No wonder when they got along with Cheng Dalei, Cheng Dalei was extremely sarcastic towards the scholars in the world. It turned out that they themselves did not believe in what these people kept preaching.
.
Finally, Li Xingzai came to the Academy's Wanjuan Building, or in front of the ruins of the Wanjuan Building. The ruins of the library that had been burned down by a fire had been cleared away, but there were still more or less residual traces.
"Did Cheng Dalei burn down this building?" Li Xingzai asked.
Zhang Mingli, the new dean of the academy, replied: "Yes, that Cheng thief is very hateful. How many precious classics were burned to the ground. It is really harmful to nature and a heinous crime."
Chu Yunsheng on the side covered his mouth and coughed a few times, not knowing what he was thinking.
Zhang Mingli gritted his teeth as he spoke, but Li Xingzai didn't think anything of it. He didn't find it strange at all that Cheng Dalei would do such a thing.
Suddenly, something strange seemed to happen, and Li Xingzai suddenly felt that Cheng Dalei had gone too far in burning down the Wanjuan Tower. The precious books left by the predecessors and sages were now destroyed, and once they were destroyed, they could no longer be seen.
"That Cheng Dalei... is really a bit hateful."
Even Li Xingzai couldn't help but say something, and everyone behind him was already talking about it. Not only were they talking on the mountain, but the residents of Langya City down the mountain were also talking.
They were greatly harmed by Liu Dingtian this time, and many of their relatives died in the war. When Liu Dingtian was mentioned, he cursed loudly, and tracing back to the source, where did Liu Dingtian come from? Naturally, it was from Lin Shaoyu, because he beat him
It is the banner of the Righteous Cult. And where did Lin Shaoyu come from...
Of course it was trained by Cheng Dalei.
Now that Liu Dingtian is dead and Lin Shaoyu is dead, everyone needs someone to hate, and naturally it is Cheng Dalei.
This matter originally had nothing to do with Cheng Dalei, but it still fell on Cheng Dalei.
Not only Langya City, but also most of the empire was harmed by Cheng Da Lei. Originally, everyone had almost forgotten about these old grudges, but they remembered them almost at the same time.
Jiangnan Li Xing thought about how he was driven into despair by Cheng Dalei, and Bai Lisheng, who had fallen into the trap, thought about how Cheng Dalei and Song Bokang teamed up to target him... Especially in Chang'an City, at Yu Chili's funeral, an elegiac couplet appeared for no reason
, the content is irrelevant, the signature is clearly Cheng Dalei’s notoriety.
This is Chi Guoguo's demonstration. The dead have always been the most important, and one death will lead to a hundred deaths. How could you openly carry out such a despicable and shameless act at someone else's funeral?
The General's Mansion gnashed their teeth in hatred. If they could touch Cheng Dalei, they would probably cut him into pieces immediately in order to satisfy their hatred.
The people in the Prime Minister's Office also felt sad. Yes, just because Yuchi Li died, it didn't mean that the empire was in their possession. There were also various princes and Cheng Dalei.
By the way, this bandit has been tormenting everyone for long enough. Isn’t it time to free up our hands to get rid of him?
At the same time, the entire empire was discussing Cheng Dalei, saying how evil he was and how cruel he was... Li Letian also raised Cheng Dalei's bounty to 100,000, apparently remembering his own experience of being tortured by Cheng Dalei.
Cheng Dalei really didn't know about all this. After using the broadcasting skills rewarded by the system, he went back to his house to sleep.
After waking up, Cheng Dalei found that his fear level was soaring at an extremely terrifying speed.
Cheng Dalei was covered in cold sweat and sat blankly on the bed, watching his fear level soar, but he had no idea what was happening.
Soon his fear level reached a level that he could not even imagine before.
Cheng Dalei opened the system store. With his current fear level, he no longer cares about the admission fee. The goods that can be purchased in the system store now include: gunpowder, leather armor, black mane horse, Qingling powder...
In addition, Cheng Dalei can exchange for three types of characters: peerless, top, excellent, and ordinary through the general station.
Although Cheng Dalei has a huge amount of fear points, he has nothing that needs to be exchanged for it. Although Shuofang City lacks a population, it can be expanded by recruiting refugees, and there is no need to waste fear points.
Cheng Dalei wandered around, turned off the system interface, turned over and continued to catch up on his sleep.
Before falling asleep, he was still confused about what happened.
As the days passed, Shuofang City was developing step by step, and He Shen took over the management. There was nothing that required Cheng Dalei's intervention. During these days, refugees continued to move into Toad City, but they were still far from meeting the task requirements.
One hundred thousand people.
During this period of time, nothing major happened around Cheng Dalei. He was just running around Shuofang City and Toad City, paying attention to some information sent by A Xi.
There are no major events around Cheng Dalei, but the empire has been quite lively recently. After a period of recruitment, all the princes have become restless. There are more and more frictions between them, and small-scale battles have already occurred.
.
The most eye-catching thing was Chang'an. After Yuchili's funeral, the prime minister's office began to eliminate dissidents and wanted to turn the imperial court into a family. Li Letian, the emperor of the empire, was in danger of being ignored, so he began to compete with Cui Xiang.
But it is obvious that the two sides are not opponents of the same weight, and Li Letian is in a very difficult situation.
The power struggle in Jingzhou also attracted Song Bokang's troops. He stationed troops on the border of Jingzhou to support Cui Xiang.
In this way, Cheng Dalei's pressure is much reduced and he has room to develop with peace of mind.
The empire was almost in chaos, but things were calm in Liangzhou. As the day passed, Cheng Dalei couldn't find the reason for the soaring fear level, but he waited until Liu got rich.
He and the old nun in black went to the East China Sea and traveled tens of thousands of miles. Now they have returned safely. What is rare and valuable is that they successfully found the Hua clan and brought them to Toad City.
After Cheng Dalei got the news, he returned to Toad City as soon as possible.
