"How long have I been sitting quietly?" Tang Shidao slowly opened his eyes. Next to him were not only the imperial guards, but also a group of tough soldiers with heavy armor and heavy swords.
"It's exactly sixty days to get back to Your Majesty."
"Did Xiao Jin ask you to come?" Tang Shidao was slightly surprised. It wasn't that the time was too long, but that it was too short. He thought it had been a few months. There was nothing on Shuihua Planet that could hurt him, so he didn't care.
The external objects are peacefully meditating, and when they see the soldiers and guards, they have to deliberately ask questions.
"No, it was the local guard who was worried and sent him here. We summoned the Golden Fairy, and she said not to worry. Your Majesty's immortal body is fine, as long as you don't disturb him."
The imperial guards raised their hands and responded.
Internally, they were already frightened and completely convinced.
A person can sit quietly for sixty days without eating or drinking at all and still be fine. Not only is his body neither thin nor weak, he even feels radiant after waking up... This is not a fairy!
If it were an ordinary person, he would die of thirst if not starvation.
As early as dozens of days ago.
When outsiders heard that His Majesty the Emperor of Tang Dynasty had entered meditation practice, people started talking a lot. Some good people even bet on how many days His Majesty the Emperor of Tang Dynasty could go without eating or drinking. Anyone who bets for one month would have lost money early. Three days, ten, forty days,
For fifty days, someone lost money every day...but they were happy when they lost, and they were happy when they lost.
The more powerful His Majesty the Tang Emperor is, the more stable people like them will be.
Luo Weng and others also deliberately spread the news, without making any lies, and truly spread the news that His Majesty the Tang Emperor entered meditation practice. Then, those fools who still had the slightest illusion of rebellion were frightened away. If you become an enemy of thieves, great achievements can be expected.
; If you are an enemy of the emperor, your chances are low; if you are an enemy of the immortal, you are simply seeking death.
Even the craziest lunatic knows that as long as he calls out for rebellion, his men will tie him up first and release him to prison without the need for imperial guards or ordinary people.
"Your Majesty, we have prepared a royal banquet..."
"No."
"Ah... we have also prepared orchid soup, please take a bath and change your clothes." His Majesty the Tang Emperor was meditating here, and it was impossible for local officials not to come to pay homage.
Now that I'm here, it's naturally impossible to just sit and do nothing.
Once it’s done, it’s naturally impossible to just deal with it casually.
"It's really not necessary." Tang Shidao stretched out his finger and flicked it out of the air, and the dust on his body flew away instantly: "You are right not to touch or wipe it during this period. It is best not to disturb me when I am sitting quietly. Also, thank you very much.
I really don’t need your kindness, go back to your work. Commander Yang, give me the latest domestic intelligence."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The commander of the royal guards stepped forward.
First submit the latest investigation report.
In addition to local intelligence and Lin Wu's verification, the Nanhua Department does have rumors of "not afraid of fire", but they have not yet found out who it is.
on the other hand.
Jin Yiwei prepared the latest information about Shuihua Kingdom, because what happened was quite serious, and there was also a report from Golden Fairy.
first.
Shuihua Kingdom has officially used its troops externally. Needless to say, it is basically a crushing advance. Even the most ferocious tribes in northern Xinjiang have no power to fight back in front of the unified army. In addition to being defeated by the outstanding generals of Shuihua Kingdom,
They also have an opponent they absolutely cannot beat: the Iron Man Puppet!
The arrow cannot pierce, the sword cannot break.
Not soaked by water, not hurt by fire.
Even if they are burned red by fierce fire oil, this kind of Iron Man soldier will still not die and can still slash the enemy with his sword. Such an opponent is completely invincible and has no possibility of resistance. Even experts from the Zulong Kingdom are also surprised that the Iron Man
They know the body of a soldier and have seen the forging process with their own eyes. In theory, they cannot ignore the flames. However, they are not afraid of fire.
No matter how you guess.
Experts also did not expect that Tang Shidao added the effect of absorbing flames to the magic soul token, so it can only be an unsolvable mystery.
The intelligence also mentioned.
Long before the Shuihua Kingdom's army set off for the expedition, the first step was the Jin Yiwei and the caravan.
Firstly, they wanted to explore the route, and secondly, they wanted to get information.
Even when the current war is going on, Jin Yiwei and caravans are still marching in all directions. At present, the largest team is still the clipper fleet entering the sea. With the technical support of Zulong Kingdom, Shuihua Kingdom is vigorously developing navigation. Even,
In order to speed up the war, Luo Weng and other cabinet members also ordered ships from the various countries of the Earth Emperor Star.
To Tang Shidao's surprise, Luo Weng and others still shut out all sources of pollution.
There is still zero tolerance for temporarily sacrificing the environment for war.
Xiao Jin's report was not a request for instructions, just an explanation.
During this period, a "fake wine" incident occurred in Shuihua Country. Because high-strength wine was extremely popular in Shuihua Country, some "tourists" from the Earth Emperor Star saw business opportunities and joined forces to produce large quantities of fake wine for sale. Of course, this kind of
It is absolutely impossible for goods to pass through the border of the portal. Therefore, these speculators produce them within the borders of Shuihua Country.
In their view, Shuihua people are physically strong anyway, so drinking more will be fine.
Ancient people, if they lied, they would lie.
In the beginning, these people also made a lot of money, and the scale of their business expanded rapidly. Unfortunately, no one from the Shuihua Kingdom got into trouble, but four tourists from the Zulong Kingdom were infected, and one of them drank to death. Jinyiwei
After tracing, dozens of speculators were easily arrested. Of course they shouted for lawyers to file a lawsuit and for hospitals to perform autopsies as compensation.
At this time, an unexpected order came.
From Turtle City.
The order of Xiao Jin, known as the "Golden Fairy": five people who took the lead in manufacturing counterfeit wine, two people who provided technology, twenty-six people who collaborated on the production, Shuihua Kingdom businessmen who helped sell the fake wine even though they knew it was harmful, Shuihua Kingdom rangers who spread the word about the consignment,
The idle men of Shuihua Country who helped make fake wine, and all the members of Shuihua Country Winery who sold fake wine on behalf of others, a total of 2,178 people...killed them all!
With one order, the people of the Earth Emperor Star kingdoms all exploded.
Only one person died after drinking fake alcohol.
More than two thousand people were executed. This was simply an incredible sentence.
In contrast, the people of Shuihua Kingdom were calm without any disturbance. In their view, since fake wine poisons people, the counterfeiters should die. Secondly, if the emperor's immortal servant wants to kill someone, do they still need to ask the law?
Not to mention the war and chaos in the country, a major drought would starve thousands of people to death, which is nothing to worry about.
The nations of the Earth Emperor Star also tried to plead for mercy.
pity.
The ones who attacked were the Ghost Guards, more than a hundred ghost soldiers, the "ghosts" in everyone's mouth.
After this incident, the speculators of the Earth Emperor Star began to understand: there is no law to protect their 'crimes' here, this is the world of imperial power. Later, some human traffickers who wanted to abduct and traffic children from the Shuihua Kingdom were also killed on the street. The Earth Emperor
The people on the star became even more uneasy. Later, the kingdoms of the Earth Emperor Star issued a stern warning to all tourists: Only those who want to live a long life should enter, and those who want to live a short life must not step through this door.
More than ten days ago.
Dihuangxing once sent someone to interview Xiao Jin and asked whether the sentence was too harsh.
Xiao Jin replied: "There is no judgment, it's just my opinion. I only protect good people, not bad people. If one person out of ten is a bad person, I will kill one person to protect nine people; if there are ninety-nine bad people out of a hundred people
, I will kill ninety-nine people to protect a good person. In my eyes, there is no concept of impunity, and whoever wants to die will die."
Interviewers who resist should be given a chance to make amends.
Xiao Jin replied: "If you want to change, let's do it in the next life. I will not let the criminal dance on the corpse of the deceased, it will only turn him into another corpse. Your so-called benevolence and righteousness are meaningless in my eyes. It is right to allow criminals to go free."
The greatest insult to the deceased is also the greatest mockery of my own abilities."
The interviewer was also very angry and asked if the entire Shui Hua Planet was committing crimes and murders, how could you still kill everyone?
Xiao Jin's expression remained unchanged: "Yes, I will kill them all, and I can do it in less than a month."
Then.
There is no more.
This matter caused huge controversy, but in the end there was no result. People from the Earth Emperor Star Kingdoms began to understand that this is not a 'human' thinking mode, this is a 'god' thinking mode. It's like when you swat a mosquito, you
Will they ask: Are you thirsty? Do you want to be gentler when patting? Are you afraid of pain?
No, it won't!
There is no punishment that is harsh or not, no conviction that is too severe. When you decide to shoot, the mosquito will die, or even half-dead.
Tang Shidao can understand.
Now Xiao Jin only cares about the unification of Shuihua Star and the clues to the gates of the other four sister stars.
Anyone who gets in the way of trouble will be shot to death.
It is the magic pet of the mage, the servant of the mage, a monster that can even destroy the planet. It knows very well that in the world of the mage, human life is no different from a leaf in the forest. From the perspective of benevolence, righteousness and morality, fake wine
If you drink someone to death, you may pay money and go to jail. Some countries have long ago eliminated the death penalty. However, Xiao Jin will not spoil anyone.
"Your Majesty, how do you respond to the Golden Fairy's matter?"
"No need to reply, just leave it to Xiao Jin to handle it himself. Do you know what an iron soldier is? I can rewrite things like life and death at any time, and I can also put a person on the fire to roast him and make him miserable.
I hope you won’t die for hundreds of years. I’m just not interested in torture, but it’s not that I don’t have the means to deal with such people.”
The Jinyiwei were horrified. They could not imagine how painful it would be for a person to be roasted alive for hundreds of years without dying.
If he really encountered such a punishment, he would probably wish to die.
"Please give me a message to the representatives of the Earth Emperor Star. Just say: Every place has its own rules. If anyone wants to resist such rules, he must be prepared to face the sanctions of the power of these rules.
A man reached out and touched a wire and was electrocuted to death. It was not the fault of the wire manufacturer, because there is a rule of "if you touch it, you will die" for energized wires. Regardless of whether I have sympathy for such people or not, I will not break the rules, and I will not break the rules.
I won't shut down the power station just because you want to touch the power lines."
After speaking, Tang Shidao also motioned for everyone to retreat.
The Jin Yiwei didn't quite understand what a 'wire' was, and they only vaguely understood it. They didn't care, they just responded according to His Majesty the Tang Emperor's words. In fact, they felt strange in their hearts... Didn't they just kill some people who made false claims and harmed others?
Why are tourists so responsive?
Looking forward one year, it would be easy for Shuihua Country to have tens of thousands of people die without incident.
Tang Shidao finished his meditation.
Returning to the fortune teller's manor again. At this time, there were many visitors to the manor.
The Emperor of Shuihua Kingdom, the Immortal's personal witness that "Xuanwu" is alive, and the fortune-teller never predicts mistakes. Haha, even if he doesn't come to tell fortunes, he still comes to bask in the glory of Xuanwu. What's more, His Majesty the Emperor of Tang is here
I sit quietly and practice nearby, and I will come back to visit you sooner or later. Among other things, having a good relationship with the fortune teller is of great benefit.
In the manor.
Seeing Tang Shidao's arrival, everyone bowed deeply and bowed their hands to see their emperor.
The fortune teller naturally had to salute, and later asked: "Congratulations to His Majesty the Tang Emperor for returning from seclusion. I wonder if His Majesty the Tang Emperor has found the reason this time? The girl is also very strange. After checking herself for many days, she still has no awareness of Xuanwu.
."
Tang Shidao nodded: "I found it. It has nothing to do with what you do, but with your thoughts."
The fortune teller smiled and said, "The folk girl can't understand."
Tang Shidao was already determined: "Let me put it another way. Let me ask directly, what is your wish?"
"What's the meaning?"
"It's like a rule of exchange. I fulfill your wish, and then your hidden ability realizes what I want. I want certain clues, so I must pay first, and this reward is your wish. Listen.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand, you will understand when your wish comes true.”
