Gao Wei walked around in the imperial capital, and he could be regarded as seeing the bustle and bustle of the imperial city. In the end, it is the imperial capital of a country, with high-rise buildings, busy traffic, and people coming and going, a scene of peace and prosperity. It's just that in such a peaceful world, I always hear all kinds of torture in my ears, which really makes people feel very uncomfortable. And here, Gao Wei faintly feels that although everyone is in harmony, this harmony seems to be faked. Everyone is suppressing the anger in their hearts, there is anger and depression in their eyes, but more is the fear that is not visible. But what are people fearing in this prosperous and peaceful imperial city?

In the imperial city, it seems that the people are very peaceful. All walks of life have their own work, but in fact, is this really the case? Is there really such a peaceful city, without the slightest worry, oppression and distress? This answer naturally does not exist, just now, Gao Wei saw a dead body. The death was very miserable, as if he had been bitten by some animal, and his body was covered with blood. Gao Wei's keen perception also felt the murderous aura of the person next to him, and the people around him obviously also had a very obvious fear.

It seems that it is indeed peaceful and peaceful, but in fact, is this really the case? Gao Wei couldn't help but wonder in his heart: At the foot of this son of heaven, there are also people who kill people on the street so unscrupulously?

Looking around, it seems as if everything was built according to a person's wishes, not just similar, but even similar. Even the number of tiles on the roof is the same. Gao Wei looked at it carefully, perceived and perceived, and finally settled down. In this whole imperial city, all the buildings are exactly the same, as if they were carved out of the same mold, everything is so similar. But it seems very boring, because it is so decent, there is no difference at all. If you look closely, even everyone's clothes are the same, just the fabric and color are different, but most people do wear the same clothes. And those who wear different clothes, they have a different temperament on their bodies. A word suddenly flashed in Gao Wei's mind: hierarchy!

In Gao Wei's hometown, there was a history in which people were so hierarchical that people of different ranks could not even stand on the same steps, not even wear clothes of the same material. People of lower status must obey people of higher status no matter what they do. First of all, in this scene, it seems that the hierarchy of this Ming Empire is similar to that world, but I don't know if the hierarchy here is more stringent than the hierarchy of that world, or should it be said to be strict. However, in Gao Wei's opinion, it seems that this is the case, at least compared with the history of that world, it will definitely not be more lax, only it may be more harsh. Because Gao Wei had just seen a person wearing clothes of poor material ordering a dish, but the restaurant refused to provide it to him, on the grounds that as a low-level citizen, he was not qualified to order that dish. That's right, that's it, there is no qualification to order that dish!

Gao Wei's mood couldn't help but feel a little heavy, and under the strict rank, it must be extremely oppressive. Looking at these people, one by one they only have anger in their hearts, and they dare not speak out, and who knows to what extent they have been oppressed by such oppression? When the oppression reaches a certain level, people will definitely rise up and resist, but now these people are only suppressing their anger in their hearts, but they dare not reveal the slightest bit. Why? Gao Wei had already seen the answer in their eyes: because of fear.

What kind of oppression can make people so frightened that they don't even dare to show their emotions? Because of anger, these people can only bury their anger deep in fear, and this is a terrible thing. Gao Wei didn't know what would happen to these people, but he knew that there were many things in this world that were more terrible than death. Maybe these people know this, Gao Wei is not sure what they have experienced or seen, but Gao Wei knows in his heart that these people are the people in the worst living imperial city in the world, although they live in a luxurious and prosperous place, but they suffer the most cruel oppression.

I don't know what happened to these guys, but Gao Wei is very interested in this imperial city. Prosperity is at its limit, but it does not have the slightest vitality, but it is as lifeless as those dying old men, and under the prosperity, there is countless anger and fear. Why did such an imperial city exist, and why did it exist to this day? I heard Huang Zhennan say that this imperial city has been like this since the founding of the Ming Empire, but if this is really the case, why has it existed for so long? Could it be that the people in the imperial city are all fools, and they don't know how to resist? If this has always been the case, then why did this empire succeed in establishing it in the first place?

Maybe something happened in between, but what kind of changes could have caused such a change?

At this moment, in the palace, in the study of His Majesty the Great Emperor. A huge skeleton, walking unscrupulously, he is very familiar with this place, he knows everything here, where there are mechanisms, what that part of the documents are used for, and even the beauty of this place A speck of dust he knows clearly. No one knows when this skeleton appeared in the Emperor's study, to be precise, no one has ever known that there is a living skeleton in His Majesty's study.

"I told you, you can't do that here. The Emperor's voice rang lazily on the side, and at some point he suddenly appeared here, beside two people, who were still bleeding on the ground, but they had not yet died. There was great fear in their eyes, and they saw a huge skeleton that was alive. But after that, they just felt a pain in their neck, and the wound was not deep, so they didn't die right away. But little by little, the blood flowed out, and with it their fragile vitality.

The huge skeleton seemed to have known about their existence for a long time, and said indifferently: "I know it in my heart." As he spoke, he turned around, and with a slight grasp of his huge hand, he picked up the two of them and put them in his mouth. There was a creaking sound, and blood flowed through her = his pale skeleton, but instead of reaching the ground, it seeped into his bones.

"I'm almost done with my strength, but these weak guys, stupid mortals. Their flesh and blood alone are not enough. He lowered his head and said in a grim tone, "I need stronger flesh!"

The emperor smiled and said, "The Martial Arts Club is about to start!"
