Chapter 454: A Snoop from the Secret Realm
With the expansion of Qin's territory, the national fortunes became stronger and stronger, so that Xianyang's rich spiritual power far exceeded the average level of the world. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Of course, in addition to Xianyang, the cities in various parts of the Qin State have also been more or less improved.
Ordinary people, even if they have not practiced martial arts, their physical fitness is much better than before.
The grain in the field is growing much better than before. The body that has been sick for a long time has gradually improved.
Due to the turmoil of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and the development of the Lingnan counties, the Qin State had enough arable land.
Especially those families who have been in trouble, almost every household has an amazing land of fertile land.
Now, the great families have fallen.
Most of the new families have been promoted by the military lord system, and they are also targeting those children who go with the army, waiting for them to earn military merits and expand the family's prestige.
Without the competition of the big families, these fields were basically distributed to the people in need.
And, in order to restrain those greedy families. Yingzheng also promulgated a lot of measures.
Since ancient times, the state has not collected taxes on privately owned land. This also makes those nobles richer the longer they last.
Moreover, depending on their origins, these families often annex land.
The country's lack of sources of tax revenue will inevitably increase taxes on ordinary people. Over time, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Even, to the point where selling children and daughters is not enough to make ends meet.
This is also the reason why every dynasty, no matter how powerful the dynasty, only has a lifespan of two or three hundred years.
Although the momentum of Yingzheng is now unprecedented. Those wealthy and powerful families naturally did not dare to make trouble.
However, for those places where the emperor is far away, even Yingzheng sometimes has no intention of governing.
For this reason, Yingzheng ordered, but there are hired people, competing with the country for profit, in order to regulate the people's power, each family, thirty taxes.
The tax of 30 tax is not high, but it has created a precedent for the family to pay taxes. If it had been placed in the past, it would have caused a lot of turmoil.
However, Yingzheng is different. has abolished the feudal Yingzheng, and used the soldiers of Great Qin to send those who still want to restore their homeland to hell.
What's more, today's Yingzheng has almost become the heaven in the hearts of all the people. Even if those families wanted to resist, they would no longer be able to recruit soldiers.
Abundant food and clothing, and you can go out with the army to earn military merits and improve your status. It can be said that today's Qin people treat the first emperor who came back from the dead with almost heartfelt support.
Similarly, as a common man of the Qin State, the more support for Ying Zheng, the more national fortunes Ying Zheng can gather. There will be more that can benefit the people.
In this way, a virtuous circle is almost formed.
And just when the Qin State was thriving, the distant overseas was also undergoing tremendous changes.
On Penglai Island, a white-haired old man looked at the deep sky and frowned.
"Could it be my delusion, why is the barrier of the Heavenly Dao getting weaker and weaker?" The old man whispered softly.
After stopping and watching for a whole day and night, the old man's face changed greatly, and he disappeared between the clouds with a single jump.
"Skyrim is crumbling? Dude, are you sure you're not mistaken? ”
Among the abbots of the same immortal island, in addition to the old man before, there was also a middle-aged man and a man who looked like a young man.
"Although the old man has not much longevity, he still has this eyesight!" The old man who was suspected said in a rather unkind tone.
"Don't be angry, brother, you know what kind of character your brother has." The young man said with a smile.
"If that's the case, then something must be wrong with the Heavenly Dao! We can't afford to sit still! The middle-aged man also said with a solemn face.
"Yes, we have to send someone out to see what is wrong with the Heavenly Dao!" This time, even the most out-of-the-box young man said with deep approval.
"However, within the scope of the secret realm, I can still feel the existence of the coercion of the Heavenly Dao. With the cultivation of the three of us rushing out, I am afraid that the secret realm will collapse in an instant. The old man frowned and said softly.
"In this way, I can only find a person with a low realm to take a look." The other two nodded at the same time and said in unison.
"But what kind of realm is appropriate?" The old man's words once again caused the other two to fall into silence.
The suppression of the Heavenly Dao, they know it well. However, after such a long time, no one knows what the bottom line of Heavenly Dao suppression is.
Sending people out rashly, if the realm is low, it doesn't work, and they can't sense the existence of the Heavenly Dao at all. Those with high realms may not be able to resist the power of the Heavenly Dao and will be directly split into ashes.
"Brother Yun, I remember that on your Abbot Island, there was a small family that broke the rules and went to the ancestral land to plunder the rare and exotic grass without permission, and when it was finally exterminated, a Yuanying monk was missed. Could it be this person who tampered with the heavenly machine? ”
"Makes sense!" Yun Shizi's eyes lit up, nodded and said.
"I remember, that person seems to be in the Yuan Infant Stage, although his combat power is not very good, but the realm of good luck has almost reached the late Yuan Infant Stage. We can send a late Yuan Infant to take a look! ”
"Seconded!"
"Seconded!"
Although the scope of the secret realm composed of the three immortal islands is not too large, the monks of the Yuanying Realm still grasp a lot of them. Even if they really died, it wouldn't be distressing for them.
As the supreme rulers of the three immortal islands, the three of them not only maintain the secret realm, but also the absolute control of the secret realm.
Once the three of them made a decision, even if the entire secret realm united to oppose it, it would be useless.
In the world of cultivating immortals, strength is fundamental.
Soon, under the tremendous pressure of the three of them, two unlucky Yuanying monks who were used as test subjects were elected.
"This time out of the secret realm, your task is to return to the ancestral land and stir up some trouble. This is a thousand-mile transmission, no matter whether the Heavenly Dao reacts or not, the message must be replied to us! The old man at the head said, with a gloomy face.
The power of the Heavenly Dao, in the secret realm, has long been known to almost everyone. However, compared to the ethereal Heavenly Dao, it was obvious that the three people in front of them were under more pressure on them.
In desperation, the two could only consider themselves unlucky, nodded, and responded: "Obey ...... order"
"In return for you, the old man will personally accept one of your relatives as a registered disciple! However, if you are greedy for life and afraid of death, your relatives don't want to survive in the secret realm anymore! ”
The old man saw the unhappiness in the eyes of the two, and in order to ensure that the two did not act nonsense, he could only coerce and lure.
When they heard the old man's promise, a slight glint flashed in the eyes of the two. Then they gritted their teeth, looked at each other, and nodded vigorously.
"Good, go ahead!" The old man nodded with satisfaction and said.
Outside the secret realm, there are many prohibitions, but most of these prohibitions are external, and they are much looser internally. Otherwise, the Yuanying Monk who escaped would not have been able to get out of the secret realm.
The two Yuanying Cultivators exhaled lightly, then nodded at the same time. Following the map given by the old man, he plunged headlong into the prohibition of the secret realm.
Above the prohibition of the secret realm, there was a layer of ripples. But soon, it disappeared again.
Although Yingzheng, who was far away in Xianyang, knew that the group of monks who survived from the Zhou Dynasty in the secret realm would definitely come to the door one day.
However, he didn't expect that this was only a little more than a year, and the people in the secret realm had already noticed the changes in the Heavenly Dao.
You must know that the Heavenly Dao and this heaven and earth are like one, and if the Heavenly Dao is unwilling to appear, no one will be able to sense it at all. This is also why the two people in the secret realm looked like they were going to die before they went out.
Because, once the Heavenly Dao comes out, these two of them, whose aura is not inferior to that of contemporary people, will definitely die tragically. However, their task is to lead out the way of heaven, and under such a paradoxical path, they are almost certain to die.
