Chapter 338: Punish Him
Silly Duck's speech had just ended, and seeing Wu Xingfeng's unkind expression, he thought that he regretted it again, and was about to say something comforting, but he heard Wu Xingfeng take the lead.
"Let me ask you, how did you find this dungeon?"
"In the year of your battle with Chiyou, the flood flooded a radius of thousands of miles, I took the ghost car to Wangwu Mountain to find the female lu as you said, and on the way back, I saw a yellow light flashing here, so I fell down to investigate. Silly Duck said as he recalled.
"What did you find?" Wu Xingfeng breathed a sigh of relief, what he was most afraid of was being discovered by the enemy.
"Yellow balls. The stupid duck said and pointed to his neck, and under the black whirring feathers, there was a pendant hidden.
"Do you recognize this?" Wu Xingfeng stepped forward and pointed to the small bead pendant exposed from the stupid duck's neck.
This is a gift from the stupid duck to the little fire phoenix, when the little fire phoenix was still young, the stupid duck was afraid that she would lose it, so he kept it for her. Seeing that Wu Xingfeng's tone was wrong, the stupid duck immediately became alert.
"This thing is mine, it's useless if you want it!" Wu Xingfeng didn't give the stupid duck a chance to escape, his heart flashed, and the yellow ball was already in his hand.
"Wu Dasha, you are shameless, the stupid duck fought with you. As he spoke, he was about to rush forward.
Wu Xingfeng didn't have the time to continue to talk nonsense with the stupid duck, but if he took it away like this, it would more or less make the stupid duck lose face, so he took out a fruit and threw it to him. "This thing has a lot of effect on me, and when I find the right one later, I'll send you a good one." ”
With that, teleport away.
The place where Wu Xingfeng appeared was a small bamboo forest in the south of Kangcheng, facing the small river, full of wild flowers, very quiet. Raising his hand to conjure up a chair, he sat facing the river, pinching the yellow ball, frowning and thinking.
The faint yellow light in the small ball was not the same as the Dao Ancestor human soul that he had seen in the Kunlun Divine Mansion before, after pondering for a moment, Wu Xingfeng condensed his qi and crushed it, and the yellow light flew out in an instant, condensing into a white-bearded old Dao in front of his eyes.
The white-bearded old man's eyes were locked, and his body surface was shrouded in yellow light, like the jade of the star dome, revealing a clumsy ancient immortal aura.
There is no doubt that this white-bearded old Taoist is the Mixed Yuan Dao Ancestor, Wu Xingfeng looked at the white-bearded old Taoist in front of him with a more awe-inspiring expression, this is a feeling from his own body, although he knows that this white-bearded old Taoist is himself.
But Wu Xingfeng didn't have the memory of the Mixed Yuan Dao Ancestor, and he couldn't imagine how powerful the white-bearded old Dao in front of him was, perhaps, after fusing with the Earth Soul of the Mixed Yuan Dao Ancestor, he was no longer a mortal.
For a while, since Wu Xingfeng was a little hesitant, this hesitation was only a flash, and soon the Dao Ancestor Human Soul occupied the main consciousness and walked towards the Dao Ancestor Earth Soul suspended in the void.
At the moment of fusion, Wu Xingfeng heard an earth-shattering noise in his mind, which was the sound of the Great Universe barrier shattering.
In addition to this loud noise, there are also mechanical sound waves generated by countless fragments floating in the universe, this sound wave is extremely weird, hollow roaring, and terrifying.
As the voice went from far to near, Wu Xingfeng's brain seemed to be torn apart, and he couldn't find the words to accurately describe how uncomfortable this feeling was.
It was as if the soul had been crushed, and as if the throat was stuffed with a blade, and the breath was like a knife, and the eyes were bloodied without breathing, and the soul was scattered.
Perhaps this is the message that the Earth Soul of the Mixed Yuan Dao Ancestor wants to convey to him, destruction, everywhere.
The strange and terrifying sound coming from the universe is the last cry of civilization on these dead planets, and it also represents the birth of a civilization.
When the Mixed Yuan Dao Ancestor delivered this news, it was by no means so single, behind those terrifying voices, there was hidden killing and destruction, who caused all this?
Wu Xingfeng walked towards the Mixed Yuan Dao Ancestral Earth Soul, and while merging with it, he seemed to see a behemoth beast deep in his heart, perhaps the destruction and killing were caused by this terrifying beast.
There are three souls of heaven, earth and man, only the soul of heaven is missing. Just as Wu Xingfeng had expected, the fusion of human soul and earth soul would not improve his cultivation because of this, but could only be used as a carrier to convey more distant news to him.
Leaving the bamboo forest, Wu Xingfeng returned to the Yandu Palace.
The goddess is correcting the folds, which is related to the allocation of rice and grain in the city.
Before the war started, grain and grass went first.
The security work in the later period is extremely important, and it is Ji Wencheng who escorts the grain and grass, this person is about fifty years old, and he is one of the important ministers of the court when Jiang Shui is alive, and after Wu Xingfeng took office, he continued to reuse this person.
Therefore, he had already planned with the goddess, and there were seven days to fight to the death with Youxiong, so the 20,000 soldiers and horses of the pioneer battalion had already been on the road, and the remaining 30,000 troops would also set off in three days.
Seeing the goddess frowning, Wu Xingfeng knew that there must be something wrong with the grain and grass.
"Ji Wencheng suddenly fell seriously ill, and before the grain and grass arrived in Chuancheng, half of it was burned by the spies. The goddess pointed to the words written in red pen on the fold, and her brow furrowed.
"Although this matter is burning on the brow, it is not a big deal. Wu Xingfeng casually flipped through the next notebook, and immediately became angry and smashed to the ground.
The goddess was going to squeeze Wu Xingfeng, and the matter of grain and grass was by no means child's play, but when she saw him suddenly smash a piece of music to the ground, she was suspicious and bent down to pick it up.
When I opened it, my brows furrowed. "Come on, go and put Jiang Ji's son in prison for me. ”
"Subordinate Order!"
"This kind of goods is a moth, Jiang Bo has no way to teach his son, so he will be removed from the post of Xiangguo and let him go back to support the elderly. Wu Xingfeng added fuel to the fire and spoke in a deep voice.
"What are you still doing? The goddess couldn't get angry.
"Yes, my subordinates will do it. ”
"Xingfeng, don't be angry! The top priority is to restock grain and grass. The goddess spoke comfortably.
"No wonder the red-skinned sweet potatoes I brought were not widely planted, and there were still people starving to death in remote cities, it turned out that this Jiang Zihan was a ghost.
I didn't investigate it before killing dragon horses and eating dragon meat, but I didn't expect that this product would be bold enough to rob the official grain and sell it privately. It's really hateful. ”
Wu Xingfeng pointed at the fold and was furious.
"Jiang Zihan really deserves death, but Uncle Jiang is old, I'm afraid I can't stand such a blow, or not?" After hesitating, the goddess finally pleaded for Uncle Jiang.
"If you don't punish it severely, how can you obey the people! This matter is decided, and you don't need to say more. Wu Xingfeng's tone was slightly heavy, quite intimidating, and he frowned and said: "Xuannu still has some Bigu Dan, you can ask her to bring it to temporarily alleviate the problem of food shortage." ”
"I'll go and ask Ah Meina at night. "The goddess doesn't know why Wu Xingfeng has suddenly changed so much, he has never asked about the government, and he rarely even enters the palace gate, why does it seem that he has changed people today.
Not only the goddess, Wu Xingfeng didn't even know why he was so angry, maybe the Mixed Yuan Dao Ancestor was not a good class, with the fusion of the human soul and the earth soul, he was also getting closer and closer to the Mixed Yuan Dao Ancestor.
The next morning.
Wu Xingfeng sat on the throne of Emperor Yan in the Zhengtai Palace, dressed in an embroidered gold dragon, with a ** demeanor, not angry and arrogant.
Since he ascended the throne of Emperor Yan, this is his second time in the Eight Classics, the first time is the day he ascended the throne, that is, the first year of the Book of Heaven. It's now the sixth year of the Book of Heaven.
Emperor Yan, who never asked about the government, suddenly went to the court, which inevitably made people suspicious.
As if he had seen through what the ministers were thinking, Wu Xingfeng spoke in a deep voice. "The widow has lived in Yunshan for a long time, comprehended the Xuanhuang of heaven and earth, and realized its life and death, and wanted to pass on the scriptures and help the industry, so that you can enjoy a thousand years of life, but found that the courtiers were greedy, formed a party for personal gain, did not do their business, and engaged in favoritism. ”
Speaking of this, he deliberately paused and glanced at the people below.
There were more than 50 people on each side of the main hall, and all the officials bowed their heads and did not dare to make a sound. They knew very well that Wu Xingfeng was not an ordinary person, and no one suspected that what he said just now was gibberish.
"When the country is in danger, as a courtier in the court, he should take the lead and move forward bravely, and he should have made sacrifices at a critical moment with his money. Instead of being pampered, lying white and pure for people to serve. ”
After speaking, the conversation changed sharply and shouted. "Jiang Daxin, as the lord of Daze City, you took the lead in hiding weapons privately, do you want to rebel?"
Jiang Daxin's soul was in danger, kowtowing and kneeling. "Please Emperor Yan to be aware of it, even if I have a hundred courages, I don't dare to hide weapons privately. ”
Wu Xingfeng snorted coldly: "You don't dare, but your son does." ”
When Jiang Daxin heard this, he was dazed, he had already advised his son Jiang Jinsheng not to collect weapons, let alone resell weapons, but now it was discovered by Emperor Yan, who did not ask about the government.
"It's my godson who has no way, please punish Emperor Yan. ”
"Criminal Department, where is Li Dagong?" Wu Xingfeng glanced at the ministers and asked in a deep voice.
"The minister is here. ”
"What is the crime of possessing weapons?"
"Emperor Hui Yan asked, those who secretly possess weapons, regardless of caste, but all those involved in homicide will be sentenced to death, and if they resell weapons, the number of them will be exterminated. Li Dagong replied.
Jiang Daxin was startled and hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy. "Please also ask the Holy Majesty to be gracious. ”
"If you have meritorious service in defending the city, and you are an only son, the widow will not kill him, but the living crime can be avoided, and the death penalty cannot be escaped. Wu Xingfeng said and looked at the people who bowed their heads.
"I've also heard that some people take advantage of the war to raise the price of rice, abuse their power, shield their families, and even dig up information to collude with bears, and most of these people are your children.
Now, the widow will give you a chance, take the initiative to admit your mistakes, and punish you for a year, and this matter will pass. ”
Wu Xingfeng stopped talking, closed his eyes and waited.
His Royal Highness's ministers coveted each other, but no one dared to talk about it.
Just when Wu Xingfeng was about to lose his patience, a blue-robed civil servant took the initiative to step forward. "The minister is not a filial son, he made a big mistake, and asked the saint to give him a chance to be a new man. ”
"Is it murder, or arson?" Wu Xingfeng opened his eyes and looked directly at the blue-robed Wenchen, this person's name was Jiang Gou, he was the lord of the new city, and he cultivated into a dark blue aura.
"Returning to the saint and asking, the rebel son set fire to the mountain, causing a hundred miles of disaster. Jiang Gou replied worriedly.
Wu Xingfeng half-stared and spoke in a deep voice. "If there is a cause for it, let it be forgiven, but if it is done without a cause, it is greater. ”
"It was the rebel who was drunk and lost his temper, so he set fire to the mountain. Jiang Gou reported honestly and didn't dare to hide it.
And he repented, and sent him to the fire room in the camp for a year. to punish them. ”
