You must have guessed who it is, right?"

Cao Mu said in a deep voice: "Shake the heavens and gods." The same is true in the territory of Shadureth. ”

Guangde sighed: "In the past two years, the barbarians have been invincible in the Southern Ganbu Continent, beating the Immortal Sect to pieces, and the situation looks very good. But we treat the common people harshly, and heavy taxes are accompanied by strict laws. Pingqingzhou alone, a large state, has seen its population plummeting by 60 percent from before the war to the present.

He turned his head to look at the nobleman who spoke first: "You said that the tax money cannot be collected, but do you know that the tax law we promulgated is the first of its kind in the Southern Ganbu Continent, and it can already be directly distributed to the common people? In the town of Donghu at our feet, I saw with my own eyes that the common people of Pingtou could not afford to pay taxes, so they had to sell their labor to the local barbarian nobles to offset taxes, which was called servitude in lieu of taxes, and this part of the tax did not flow into the treasury, but the commoners also paid a high price. A commander of a thousand in the army, traveling in the local area is so loud that at least 100 servants must serve in front of the saddle and behind the horse. Hehe, not to mention those who can't afford to sell labor, they can only sell their sons and daughters. In this way, the civilian tax was paid, and the conscription was served, but it was still not allowed to live in peace. ”

The nobleman shut his mouth and said no more. Obviously, the battle he put up when he traveled to the world was far better than that of a thousand commanders.

The more difficult their lives became, the more they hoped for a savior to help them out of their misery. Guangde sighed, "The prestige of the Heaven-Shaking God Monarch has not decreased in the past two years, but has increased sharply." ”

Speaking of the Heaven-Shaking Divine Monarch, more than half of the people present looked sideways at Xuantian Niangniang, only to see her eyes slightly closed, and they didn't know if they heard it.

Ning Xiaoxian has been in Shenshan for the past two years, but he knows the people's hearts and minds on the Southern Ganbu Continent better than most of the barbarians present. It's just that the current situation was originally in Changtian's budget.

Originally, in the minds of the barbarians, Yinliu retreated back to the Ba Snake Mountain Range because of the robbery of Xuantian Niangniang, ignoring the safety of the world, and the people of the world should have hated and hated it, especially the Heaven Shaking God Monarch who made this decision.

It's a pity that the sky doesn't follow people's wishes.

The hidden stream has always been the mainstay of the war alliance, and Changtian himself has never been defeated in battle. Since the hidden stream really returned to seclusion, the Southern Ganbu Continent Immortal Sect was oppressed by the barbarians and was almost powerless, but people remembered the good old days, and reminded the benefits and power of the Ba snake and the hidden stream. It seems that if the hidden stream led by Changtian comes out of the mountain again, it will be able to beat the barbarians back to their lair and return a peaceful and prosperous era to the southern Ganbu Continent.

Can this really be the case? Ning Xiaoxian knows, I'm afraid it may not be.

However, it doesn't really matter. Civilians, mired in poverty, terror, tragedy and suffering, need only the solace of hope, even if it is illusory and ethereal, like a little light in the abyss of despair.

As long as the light is not extinguished, there is still hope for life.

Faith born of hope is truly unbreakable, pure and pious.

Yin Shengyuan coughed lightly: "This is a large amount of faith power to the snake. If we send him directly to the True God Realm, it is not good news for us. In this case, is there a solution?" The last sentence is said to Guangde. Since the problem was raised by him, he naturally asked him for a solution.

"If people only remember what was good in the past, it can only mean that they are doing too badly now. Guangde said in a clear voice, "Reduce the thin tax, and enrich the people, so that mortals can live and work in peace and contentment, and this problem will be solved." ”

"Now?" Gulden sneered, "With a little more effort, we can take down the remaining sects and annex the four seas." At this time, where can the military resources be relaxed? Let the mortals suffer for another year and a half, and then be more merciful to them. "Isn't it money that is burned in war? If the taxes and salaries collected are small, the pace of conquering the world will inevitably slow down.

And there is a consensus that everyone knows, but cannot declare:

The competition between the three major forces of the barbarians is also becoming increasingly fierce, and the lack of military strength will be beaten.

Guangde shook his head: "What if you can't get it in a year and a half?"

"How is that possible?" Gulden glared, "The remaining few sects are just swollen faces and fat people, from the God Realm to the army, where are our opponents?"

Yin Zhi also interjected: "What Hara Nan said is reasonable, we don't need to rush it. ”

Tangnuer sneered: "If you fight a snake, you won't die, but you will suffer from it." ”

From the perspective of the Holy Domain, she naturally hoped that the speed of eliminating the Immortal Sect would be as fast as possible. Because the ambition of the god-king will never stop there. Guangde's woman's benevolence, she can't look down on it.

Since then, there has been a lot of debate.

It wasn't until the sound became quieter that the God King said slowly: "Each of them has a reason. I came to Guangcheng Palace all the way, and sure enough, I saw that the people were not happy. Although mortals are humble, it is not very good for my holy clan to dry up and fish, and the holy realm will adopt the advice of Hara Nan and send down the edict in the future. ”

Unlike other barbarians, he was born and raised in the Southern Ganbu Continent. The successive masters of the Jinghai Royal Mansion had a thin barbarian blood, could not cultivate immortals, and most of them lived their lives as mortals, including Huangfu Ming's adoptive father, Huangfu Songyun. Therefore, the god-king is far closer to mortals than other fellow nobles.

The corners of Ning Xiaoxian's mouth couldn't help but raise a sneer.

I want to be beautiful, but I'm afraid it's not so easy to do. Barbarians are never soft on foreign races, and the demon race has been suppressed vigorously, not to mention mortals who are powerless, I am afraid that they have not been treated as human beings from the beginning. In the past few years, both Yinliu and Fengtianfu have launched a lot of elaborate works to lurk among the people, focusing on spreading the evil state of the barbarians, and it turned out that there is no need to be alarmist or exaggerated, and the barbarians' ruling methods are far more than several times more brutal than those of immortal cultivators.

The reason for this is not the characteristics of the race, but the constraints of the Heavenly Dao. Immortal cultivators want to cross the calamity, and the divine realm must gather incense, although they were not friendly to mortals in the past, but at least there is a bottom limit, and they can't be evil. Barbarians are not restricted by the way of heaven, and they don't have this concern at all, and they can treat humans as they like. After all, it is a race as weak as ants, and the number is so large, even if you kill a few of them, it is not a big deal.

According to what she had heard from Wo, there were several witches who had trained the humans of an entire town alive for two small experiments, but were not punished afterwards, only a few scoldings that were scolded, because they could not collect their taxes when they died.

It can be seen that the status of human beings in the minds of barbarians is probably the same as that of livestock.

The entire race has developed the habit of eating meat and drinking blood on human beings, and even if the God King wants to change it with a single order, how can it be so easy? The barbarian tribe treats human beings, and the disdain and indifference that emerges from their bones doom them to be unfriendly to the weak. In any case, the position of the god-king is naturally on the side of the barbarians.

Yin Susheng, who was sitting in the back row, had been staring at her for a long time, and then suddenly said, "Since Xuantian Niangniang is sitting here, she must also have insight?"
