Chapter 278: The Post Station

"Obliteration!"

Wu Ming's face was cold, and he looked at a female authority in front of him, his eyes instantly lost focus, and he fell softly, turning into a corpse. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Cruelty to women and children is intolerable! You will not die well! ”

In his hand, another scholar looked bare-eyed, let out a curse, and killed himself by chewing his tongue.

Burst!

A puff of blood mist spit out from his mouth, with a green color, stabbing at Wu Ming like a flying sword.

"Huh? Confucianism's blue blood and danqing? ”

Wu Ming's hand flashed with a clear light, and he crushed the turquoise blood arrow: "She should be your enemy, right?" I avenge you, why is this still the case? ”

As he spoke, a strong force had already pushed the scholar away.

"Woo ......"

Chewing the tongue was a rather painful way to die, and the scholar had obviously practiced it, and at this time he could barely move, twisting on the ground, trying to dip his fingers in blood, and wrote seven words of 'hate', and suddenly his body straightened up, and blood flowed from both eyes.

"Boring...... Could it be that there is something like Liang Zhu's bloody plot hidden? ”

Wu Ming touched his chin, but he was indifferent, let alone had any desire to explore, and indifferently watched the scholar's breath cut off.

【Ding! Your privileges are elevated! Please find out for more information! 】

A hint of the main shrine emerges.

Killing those with authority must have a transfer of power, implying the encouragement of fighting, and it made Wu Ming grasp the hidden purpose of the main temple.

These days, he has turned to all directions, and according to the intelligence of the Blood Alliance, he has eliminated at least a dozen reincarnations.

Among such a large number, even if half of them are wronged, and half of them have no authority at all, but they do not accumulate small streams, and they cannot become rivers and seas, and the increase brought by such accumulation over time is also quite terrifying.

At this time, Wu Ming didn't know how much his authority had been raised, but he only knew that some of the hidden powers of the main temple had also been released to himβ€”this was only the part he had figured out!

"Kill...... Kill! ”

According to the theorem that the servants are always the last to arrive, even though Wu Ming was killing people in the city, what he did was rampant to the extreme, and only then did the footsteps of tolerance come from.

"Has Da Zhou been eroded to this point?"

Wu Ming sighed, and with the flesh of the Blood Alliance Leader, he flipped over the city wall with a big grin.

This light feat, which made the officials who chased after him even more dumbfounded, and they did not dare to catch up.

After all, they are just officials in a small county town, but they eat with a mouthful of food, and they are really frightened at first sight of this kind of vicious Jiangyang thief.

'If it is the time of the founding of the country, or the rise of the dynasty, no matter what Jiangyang thieves, the heroes and giants will not dare to openly kill the officials, the people in the public gate are bold enough, and as soon as they drink it, they will be deflated first...... But now ......'

Looking at the leaves and knowing the autumn is just one aspect, which has already made Wu Ming know that the situation in this county, and even in nearby states and counties, is not optimistic.

"Unexpected...... The Shengjing Plain, which was fertile for thousands of miles and full of anointment, has now fallen into such a state......"

He looked at the wasteland and the crisscrossing ravines not far away, and couldn't help but sigh again.

Not bad!

This place is Shangzhou, and even the base camp of the Shang Dynasty, within the Ten Absolute Passes, a small county near Shengjing!

Wu Ming had been here once before, and when he revisited the place three hundred years later, he only saw the devastation.

The original green trees and lush grass fertility have long disappeared, only the deep loess ravines, like the scars of the earth, without the slightest breath of life.

When the wind blows slightly, it is flying sand and rocks, covering the sky and the sun.

There is no doubt that this is a badland! Jedi!

"Back then, the big merchants went against the sky, and the earth dragon was injured, which damaged the earth's qi, this is one of them! The twelve golden people crashed into Shengjing, full of evil spirits, no grass grew in a radius of 100 miles, and it remained unchanged for 300 years, this is the second! ”

"With these two things, the status of Shangzhou has fallen immediately since the end of Shangzhou, and even the total yield per mu in the whole state in a year is not as good as two or three counties in other states! It has really become a poor mountain and bad water! ”

"The Great Zhou naturally abandoned Shengjing and built another capital, but regarded this as a place of miasma, in the previous decades, even if the officials were degraded, they would rather go to the southern Xinjiang or the northern wilderness than come here! It gradually became a place of exile......"

"That county seat just now is far worse than any big town in Chufeng County......

"But thanks to this notoriety, the rogues also know that there is no oil and water here, and the army will eat if they don't come, but there won't be much war, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise to some extent?"

……

Thinking back on these changes, a look of sigh appeared on Wu Ming's face.

"But...... The Imperial Court Hearsay Division dispatched elite soldiers to come here, but for what? ”

This news is still a secret obtained from Qianhu Li Zongyi, and this person must have found some clues, and he was reluctant to retreat, and he did not hesitate to directly offend the Xie family, and also took down Xie Baoyu and Xie Ling'er in exchange for withdrawing from this mission.

However, although the idea was good, after being discovered by Wu Ming, he could only withdraw gloomily.

"The Imperial Court Hears......

According to Wu Ming's inquiry, this is the yamen established during the period of Emperor Jing of the Great Zhou Dynasty, ostensibly a small department that sent travelers to travel the world and collect strange things, but in fact, it secretly recruited a lot of strange people, and there are some "six doors" and "Dongchang" flavor, the main purpose is to pursue and spy on the news about reincarnation.

"However, there is a great killing weapon obliterated by the main god, and these can only be in vain......"

Wu Ming was suddenly a little puzzled, if the national strength was strong, it was reasonable to send people to investigate if he found that there was such an unstable factor under his rule.

But now, when the world is in turmoil, it is still so relentless, and even this time it is necessary to mobilize elite soldiers and strong generals from various states to conduct joint actions, which has a 'unreasonable' flavor.

"It seems...... Li Zongyi's guess is very correct, behind this Hearsay Division, not only the imperial court, but also the masterminds behind all parties! ”

As long as there is a blessed land, you can achieve a thousand-year-old family!

With such a background, there are also great supernatural powers above level 6 to suppress luck, which is naturally enough to play with the imperial court.

At this point, not to mention.

"Is it the imperial court that wants to do things, or is it the promotion of many families?"

Although there are many factions in the world, and hundreds of schools of thought are singing together, the Persona Division is finally a person from the imperial court, and without the nod of the royal family, it is impossible to make such a big fanfare.

"Maybe it's a joint operation, and the court also approves of it, and is happy to see it happen?"

Wu Ming pursed his lips with a playful smile: "In Shangzhou, is it related to the main temple?" ”

Thinking so, he immediately set off on his way.

If there are no accidents, there should be a designated point of contact for the Persona Division.

……

Dozens of miles further from the small county, you will arrive at the land of Gyeonggi in the former dynasty, and there is a small post station.

The post station, where the court documents were used to transmit messages and the officials who came and went to rest and change horses, were also an important hub connecting the entire empire.

It is through this node general, densely spread in the post station system of nineteen states, that the imperial court can appoint up and down, as the basis for unification.

However, in the later period of the dynasty, it was easy to become a place of corruption and extortion for officials, which made the post officials miserable and the burden on the court increased.

Wu Ming remembered that Emperor Chongzhen in his previous life, when he saw this drawback, he resolutely ordered the abolition of the post station, but the implementation was very problematic, and there was even a laid-off salaried employee Li Zicheng...... And then there was no then......

"But...... This is also the last place, and further on, we will go to Shengjing, and there is really no grass, and the mice can't survive......"

Wu Ming walked into a small post house.

This post station is also very small, the yellow wind blows outside, the planks on all sides vibrate, whirring and leaking, and there is a bit of a crumbling taste.

After entering, the first thing to enter is a small hall, on both sides are side rooms, and there are sounds of cows and horses in the backyard, but there is weakness, and you don't need to look at it to know that it is very thin.

An old Longzhong and a somewhat hunchbacked official came up, glanced at Wu Ming with cloudy eyes, and asked weakly: "May I ask that the lord who came, can there be a certificate seal?" ”

Originally, according to the law of the imperial court, only officials could use the post station, but at this time, the abuse of power for personal gain was prevalent, and any yamen could open a certificate, allowing relatives and followers to squeeze the resources of the Great Zhou court, and also extorted money in every possible way, so that each post station could not make ends meet.

Of course, Wu Ming had no evidence on him.

Even if there is, the Nanfeng Army Festival envoy opened it, I don't know if the court recognizes it or not!

At this time, he thought about it and threw out a token directly.

This order is swarthy, the front is a eyelid, teeth and claws, and the back is engraved with the words 'Da Zhou Yiwen Division, under the command of a hundred households Zheng Jun', and there are traces of a seal, the shape is ancient.

"It turned out to be a hundred households, please!"

The thousand households of the Hearsay Division have seven grades, and the hundred households are even lower, but they are also the official bodies of the nine grades.

The post station also has a rank, and the post man at the state and county level has an official body, but the county and below are still officials, so the old man smiled bitterly and saluted.

"Well, you go and get some wine and dinner......"

Wu Ming entered the door with a big grin, and when he saw that this person had a difficult look on his face, he couldn't help but smile: "Of course...... I also know that you are not easy, this is up to you, pick the good on! ”

As he spoke, he shoved a piece of silver into the old official's arms.

"How does this work?"

Although the old official shirked on his lips, he was holding the silver in his hand, and saluted again and again before retreating into the back hall, and there was a faint shout: "Big Niu, let your Hun family go and kill the chickens, and then heat the stove, the old man is coming!" ”

It seems that the whole family is crammed into the establishment.

Wu Ming smiled slightly, and didn't care about the old official's fake public affairs.

It didn't take long for the wine and rice to come up, a bowl full of corn, a fat chicken, two plates of pickles, and a pot of rice wine, overflowing with aroma.

Wu Ming drank the wine slightly, this rice wine was a little bitter, but the taste was quite pure, he looked at the old official rubbing his hands next to him, and smiled again: "Come on!" You sit too! ”

After letting this person sit down and drinking two more glasses of wine, Wu Mingcai seemed to have no intention of asking, "You are here, there are very few people here on weekdays, right?" ”

"Nature is less ......"

The old official had a bitter face: "On weekdays, I can still maintain it by relying on the county's alms, but these days, there are suddenly more people...... Yesterday, there was also an official from the capital who directly took away the two good horses, leaving only two horses for the old man......" (To be continued.) )
