Chapter Five Hundred and Eighteen Stars Investigate

Historians recorded that in the winter of the Gengchen year, there was an earthquake in the capital. The Jade Mountain of Taiyuan College sank seventeen feet into the ground, and the Red Flame Cave reached eight hundred miles into the sky. It was extremely beautiful. However, the reasons for the earthquake were not recorded by the historians. They only came later in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The writing method mentions that Qin Mu, the great priest of Tiansheng Academy, neglected teaching and was fined by the emperor for two years, and his official position was reduced from the fourth rank to the fifth rank.

However, according to people in the palace, in the early morning of that day, the emperor was awakened by a loud noise and rushed over to check. He saw that the location of the explosion was Yulong Lake. Countless red dragon carps in the lake were blown up. The lake surface turned white and Yulong Lake was larger than usual.

It went in several times, went deep several times, and became furious on the spot.

It was reported that the emperor was still injured on his hand and was clamoring to kill someone's head.

At that time, the emperor held a knife and wandered around the mountain with red eyes. He didn't find anyone, but only found Long Qilin and the box who were sleeping. So he held the knife and stood guard next to Long Qilin until no one came at noon, then he stopped.

There are also rumors that someone fled thousands of miles early in the morning. At noon, Long Qilin, who woke up from his sleep, rode on a box and chased him. He chased him for two days and two nights before he caught up with him.

There are also rumors that the emperor went to the barracks, wandered around the sun-shooting cannon for a long time, and finally sighed: "The merits outweigh the faults, and the crime is not worthy of death, so it is better to be demoted and fined." Then he put down his sword, turned and left.

Of course, these things are just rumors and cannot be confirmed. The imperial historians will not record these unfounded rumors.

More than ten days later, Qin Mu held a sacrifice between life and death in the Xianglong City of the Great Ruins. A long river spanned the void, and the Xianglong City became the place connecting Fengdu, and it was very lively for a while.

Xianglong City was originally the property of the Qin family. There were many Tiansheng Sect shops in the city, which transported goods from Yankang to Daxu and sold goods from Daxu out to Yankang.

This place is the first stop when entering the Great Ruins. Those with magical powers who enter the Great Ruins all choose to stay here. These days, the number of magical practitioners in Xianglong City has increased sharply, and prices have soared. Si Yunxiang and Hu Ling'er are also beaming with joy.

A few days later, officials from the Ministry of Revenue came to Daxu and said they wanted to collect taxes. Qin Mu pushed him back and cried to Emperor Yanfeng. Emperor Yanfeng couldn't laugh or cry: "Daxu is not in Yankang. If you go to collect taxes, he

If you don't kill you, you will be giving me face. According to their rules in the Great Market, your head will be killed. Don't mess around, the Great Market is not our place."

"Your Majesty, Qin Dajiu is so profitable that the trade in Xianglong City alone is huge!"

The Minister of the Ministry of Revenue resisted and said: "And this time your Majesty is going to pave a road to connect Xitu and Yankang. The road will pass through Daxu and Xianglong City! The Qin Dynasty Jijiu planned two roads, both of which pass through Xianglong City! Xianglong City

The city will definitely become the most important town in Daxu and be the richest in the world! I think that the Grand Sacrificial Wine must have selfish motives and borrow money from the court to pave the way for my hometown!"

Emperor Yanfeng had no choice but to look at him deeply and said meaningfully: "He conquered Xitu. He saved an unknown amount of military pay and saved an unknown number of soldiers from dying in battle."

The Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue said: "But most of the people who go to Xianglong City to practice their magical powers are from Yankang. If they spend money there and don't pay taxes, it will become a country within a country, and my Yankang money will inevitably be lost! If things go on like this, it will become a country within a country.

, is that okay? I, Yankang, will have no money to use!"

Emperor Yanfeng couldn't laugh or cry: "Taoist Yuanfeng, you are a master of arithmetic from Taoism, why don't you understand?"

The Minister of Household Affairs was puzzled: "I am a humble minister, please give me some advice from your majesty."

Emperor Yanfeng smiled and said: "The magical powers who went to Xianglong City used my Yankang's Dafeng coins. If you want to spend this money, you have to buy my Yankang's things or go back to Yankang Kingdom.

"

The Minister of Household Affairs frowned: "What if Dafeng coins are circulating in Daxu and not returned to Yankang?"

Emperor Yanfeng smiled and said: "If Dafeng coins can replace gold and silver and circulate in Daxu, that would be even better! Because it is the imperial court that mints coins, Daxu does not have the power to mint coins. In this way, wouldn't the imperial court have control over it?"

How much wealth does Daxu have? How much wealth does Daxu have? Isn’t it all up to the court? When Dafeng coins replace gold and silver, the court can use Dafeng coins to buy mines and rivers in Daxu.

Unifying the Great Market with currency is just around the corner!”

The Minister of Household Affairs was dumbfounded.

Emperor Yanfeng threw the memorial aside, stood up, and looked outside with a far-reaching gaze: "Without a single soldier, with just Dafeng coins, you can get the rich land of Daxu. How wonderful it is."

A good deal? You are still too naive and think that the loss of Yankang's money is a bad thing, but you don't know that using money to unify is the best way to attack. In the way of governing a country, you don't have to care about the gains and losses of money, it depends on

Look far, decades and hundreds of years from now. The Grand Ceremony Wine wants to make money, and those are just small sums. I want to make money, and what I want to make is the country. I can fight without bloodshed, manage the world, benefit the people, and unify the economy!"

The Minister of Household Affairs was completely convinced: "Your Majesty's words can serve as a warning for future generations."

In Xianglong City, Qin Mu looked at the bustling people with magical powers coming and going in the city, and the caravans were also coming in an endless stream. The magical people and caravans from Yankang State made Xianglong City even more lively.

"If the imperial master led the female psychics from the West to pave the road here and opened up the West to Yankang, the people of Daxu would not be so miserable."

Qin Mu calculated that more than a month had passed, and Yankang Imperial Master led everyone from the Tiangongtang of the Ministry of Industry to Xitu. They should have almost turned the desert into an oasis. This can be done with the Qinglong Pearl, one of the four spiritual treasures of Xitu.

thing.

And opening rivers and diverting water from snow-capped mountains into the desert can make the vegetation dense.

If Tiangongtang can carve out the mountains in the southern part of the desert and draw the clouds from the South China Sea to the north, the water source in the desert will be endless, and there will be no need to worry about precipitation and snowfall.

In a few years, the Flame Desert will become history.

And when the roads are paved, Xitu, Daxu and Yankang are connected, the roads are smooth and trade can flow, and commercial towns and cities are set up along the Daxu, the people of Daxu will become rich.

"Divine Doctor Qin, I heard that you are from Daxu."

Xing Yan stood behind him, interrupted his thoughts, and said: "You are from Daxu, but you brought the power of Yankang Kingdom into Daxu. You are the sinner of Daxu."

"There is no country in Daxu, so how can we talk about sinners?"

Qin Mu was puzzled and said: "The people of Daxu have always relied on mountains and rivers to eat and drink. There is no ruler here. Even if the Yankang Kingdom comes, the Yankang people are still the people of Daxu. They will not turn against the guests and must follow the rules."

The rules of Daxu. Here, the rules of Daxu are more effective than the emperor’s laws.”

Xing An shook his head: "I haven't met much with Emperor Yanfeng, but I can see that he has great talents and strategies, and he will definitely unify the Great Ruins in the future. When the army comes to the city by then, it will be too late for you to regret it."

Qin Mu smiled and said: "If the emperor uses troops against the Great Ruins, he will not be on the throne for a long time. You should know how terrifying the Great Ruins are. These stone statues..."

He pointed at the temples in Xianglong City and said leisurely: "They are waiting for the call of resurrection. When they are resurrected, the world is turned upside down. Yankang will never be the master of this land, the master of this land, and the other

There is someone else."

His eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "I drove away the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance. The emperor did not seek any harm from me. I know his plan clearly. It's just that his ideas are all fantasy. If the emperor's achievements can surpass those of the founding emperor, what will happen to him?

It's possible, otherwise it will all be a mirror image. I'm going to visit the grave, will Senior Brother Xingyan also come with me?"

Xing Yan looked at the box running towards him with several legs, then looked away and said: "Wherever you go, I will go. I will not leave you until I find the person I want to find."

Qin Mu frowned and said, "I won't visit the grave until your matter is settled."

The address of the Human Emperor's Palace is a secret that only the successive Human Emperors know.

Bring a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Moreover, who knows if Xing Yan will dig out the bones of previous human emperors and collect them?

After more than ten days, the imperial court, Tiansheng Sect, Daomen, Daleiyin Temple and other places searched for the information of people born on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month in the Chou month of the Jiazi year. The number of people born at that time reached 30,000.

The Ministry of Revenue official who sent the information said: "There are also information on grasslands, ice fields and western soil, but the statistics have not yet been completed."

Xing Yan looked at the files of thirty thousand people and couldn't help but feel his head was as big as a bucket. After a moment, he said: "The person I am looking for is a man. Classify the men and women in it."

The official from the Ministry of Household Affairs immediately ordered them to go down and wait until the sorting was completed. He said: "There are seventy thousand men, of which only eight thousand are still alive. Many of them died in wars and disasters."

After a while, Xing Yan said: "We will eliminate those who are not supernatural power users."

The officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs sent an order to the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs to sort out the information and reported back: "There are four hundred people left with supernatural powers."

Xing Yan was silent for a moment and said: "Let's check if these four hundred people had any visions when they were born. They were born wearing jade pendants with supernatural powers."

Officials from the Ministry of Revenue ordered an investigation of these 400 people.

When Qin Mu saw this, he couldn't help but be suspicious and thought to himself: "Every time Xing An gives an order, he hesitates for a moment. It's not like he takes the initiative to give an order, but just obeys the orders of others. That's right, Xing An in Fengdu jumped off the Naihe Bridge

, lived in Youdu, which is much more sinister than Fengdu, with more monsters and monsters filled with resentment. How did he come back from Youdu? Could it be that..."

His eyes flashed, and a Gate to Bearing Heaven suddenly appeared behind him. This gate was formed, and Qin Mu transformed into a snake-headed human body. He opened his vertical eyes between his eyebrows and looked towards Xing Yan.

Xing Yan noticed it immediately and looked back. His eyes were filled with divine light, blocking his gaze. He said calmly: "Divine Doctor Qin, there are some things you'd better not know."

Qin Mu laughed loudly and dispersed the form of Lord Zhenxing, but he was inexplicably shocked in his heart. Just now he had taken advantage of Xing An's unpreparedness and used Lord Zhen Xing's divine eye to see a terrifying thing hidden in Xing An's divine possession of life and death.

Eye!

Just now, that terrifying eye also noticed his gaze and immediately looked at him, but then Xing Yan cut off their sight!

At this time, an official from the Ministry of Household Affairs came to report: "We have not found any supernatural beings who were born wearing jade pendants. People who were born with jade pendants in their mouths are, after all, myths and legends."

"That man was not born with a jade in his mouth."

Xing Yan was silent for another moment, took out a picture, and said: "That piece of jade pendant is used to suppress his demonic nature. This is the jade pendant pattern. Since we can't find the magical person born at that time, then use this jade pendant pattern."

Hang it up and post it up in every city and county to find the whereabouts of this jade pendant! Doctor Qin, please order people to copy this picture into thousands of copies!"

Qin Mu took the picture and his eyes fell on the jade pendant pattern in the picture.

"Doctor Qin have seen this kind of jade pendant?" Xing Yan asked, seeing that he was looking at it carefully.

Qin Mu shook his head: "I've never seen it before."

Xing Yan's eyes flashed, he took out a mirror, and suddenly said: "I have always forgotten to ask, how old is Divine Doctor Qin?"
