"Ghosts? This blue sky and white day...... Hehe......"

The old fisherman laughed dryly, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, and he finally knew that something was wrong. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

He had seen many passengers, and when they encountered this scene, they were either indignant or frightened, and their faces were impassioned, and their palms trembled slightly, but this guest officer was too calm.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!

The rich life experience made the old fisherman immediately know that something was wrong, but unfortunately it was too late.

"Isn't it normal to see the hell in the daytime?"

Wu Ming pushed the trap octopus into the water, and then closed his eyes and did not move, as if he was sitting still.

"Ahh

But later, a fisherman screamed, and was suddenly dragged into the water by a metal tentacle, and blood came out in an instant.

Bang dang!

Immediately, another boat broke open a large hole, and the fisherman on it sank straight without even screaming, only a string of bubbles kept rising.

This scene suddenly made the scalps of all the boaters tingle.

"There's a monster underwater!"

"It's a water ghost!"

"Youkai!"

"Boy casts evil spells!"

……

Those who do this knife edge licking blood business are all strong and young, and at this time, they are courageous, and they want to end the monster with a fishing fork, or they can directly jump to the gang and capture Wu Ming, the culprit.

However, even if it is just the simplest puppet, it is not something they can deal with.

"Mother...... Whining...... I'm so scared ......."

The cry of the little fisherwoman came.

"Don't cry...... Haunted by water! ”

Wu Ming comforted lightly, but his eyes glanced at the old fisherman, and the cold light made the other party shudder.

'A first-class puppet beast...... It's still a big killer to deal with ordinary people! ’

Wu Mingmu grimaced, letting the trap octopus crisscross under the water, slaughtering all the sailors, but in his heart, he silently compared the difference between puppetry and Taoism.

'Hmm...... This puppet technique, the low-level puppet pays attention to the control of spiritual sense, but it is similar to the Taoist Yuan Shen cultivation...... I just don't know how to manipulate a puppet with wisdom in the future......

"Why, aren't you leaving?"

Looking at the old fisherman who seemed to have turned into wood, Wu Ming asked lightly.

"Right now! Right away! ”

The fisherman looked at his panicked wife and daughter, and even though a guy who was still related to his own family was underwater, he gritted his teeth and left here with a canopy boat.

Behind him, the broken hull and patches of blood red made him know that this guy who seemed to be a simple man actually killed people without blinking, and he had strange skills, which was really not something he could deal with.

Wu Ming looked north and didn't care about him.

There is such a huge difference in strength, if there is any abnormal movement, just kill it directly.

At this time, he was silently thinking about the situation in Dingzhou.

"The Great Zhou Dynasty followed the foundation of the Great Commerce, and also divided the world into nineteen states, but after the Yongping Rebellion set off by Huang Wei, the imperial court declined, and the order did not go out to accompany the capital, the local princes competed for hegemony, the chaos was faint, and the feudal towns were divided, even if the state pastor could not stop it......"

"There are seven counties in Dingzhou, there was originally a marquis and a feudal town, Dinghou ruled Dingyuan County, Qi Lin ruled Pingshan County, and now Wu Pheasant has split Shuangfeng again, and the imperial court only has three counties, such as Rinan, Zhuwu, and Jiude, and really all the skin has been torn off......"

"At this time, the state pastor seems to be Xu Chun? Junwang was born and was also a loyal minister of the imperial court...... Hehe, in this world, it's hard to be a loyal minister......"

If you have the heart of a hero, you can monopolize the power, expand the army in the name of the state minister, and crusade against the unsubordinate.

However, he became a loyal minister, but he could only be subject to court etiquette and tie his hands and feet.

After Wu Pheasant's move this time, the situation was even more difficult to return, even if Xu Chun had the heart, it was too late.

After cleaning up those ants, the second half of the road was really calmer, and in less than half a day, we arrived at Luoshui Wharf.

Dingzhou Prefecture is located in Jiude County, surrounded by mountains and waters, and is famous for the scenery of Luoshui.

Of course, there is also the Xie family, which has a bad relationship with Wu Ming, and the ancestral house is also located here.

"A penny of boat fare, a penny of food, there is no shortage of your ......"

Wu Ming smiled, put the silver taels into the hands of the fisherman who was trembling with his hands and almost unsteady on his feet, and Shi Shiran got off the fishing boat.

Not far away, a majestic city is in sight, this is the state governance of Dingzhou, Dingzhou City.

"Hmm...... Speaking of which, the Xie family has settled here since 200 years ago, and it seems that they really followed my advice...... However, fate has been broken, it is better not to see ......"

Wu Ming shook his head, but his heart suddenly moved, remembering the envoys sent by the Xie family Xie Ling'er and Xie Baoyu at the last wedding.

"On a whim, you must feel something!"

At this time, with Wu Ming's Dao skills, he calculated it slightly, but it was the will of heaven and the people's hearts, and he immediately knew the cause and effect.

"These two people still have a catastrophe, let's see when the time comes......"

He is not the nanny of the Xie family, but for the sake of his face last time, if he can bump into him, he doesn't mind reaching out a little to help him, and it can be regarded as their destiny.

"Dingzhou City ......"

Wu Ming smiled slightly, directly called a carriage, and slowly drove into the city.

……

In the city of Dingzhou, in the Assassin's Mansion.

A middle-aged man who looked like a civil official was holding the copy, listening to the angry shouts coming from the front hall, and suddenly stopped.

"How bold! It's so bold! Wu Pheasant, the female chicken Si Chen, dared to claim to be the envoy of the festival, intercepted the taxes of the two counties, appointed herself as a civil and military official, and expanded the army system, she really did not hide her antipathy, and she should ask for it! ”

"Slow! The state army is weak and cannot be used...... Ahem...... Besides, we are officials of the imperial court, and if we do not have a will, we must not expand the army, and if we take the state soldiers to fight, we will really hit the stone with an egg, and there will be a disaster of overturning...... Let's send a messenger and ask the princes of the court what they mean...... Ahem......"

"Otherwise, aren't you afraid of the impeachment of Captain Si Li?"

The other voice was weak, and people knew that it was Honshu Thorn Shi Gaoshun when they heard it.

'This makes it inevitable that it will be General Zhang who sent troops, but the assassin is weak and sickly, and his term of office will expire in a few months, I heard that he has already written and begged for bones, how can he agree to use troops? ’

And, even if we want to expand our army, where will the money and food come from? Will the state pastor give it? Even if it is given, the lieutenant of Si Li is not allowed to do it, it is still a matter of two words......

When I heard the paperwork, I sighed in my heart.

Because of the calamity caused by the moderation, the control of the imperial court was even more uneasy about the state, and the policy of decentralization was adopted.

According to the system, each state has a state pastor, who is in charge of the administration, and has a state assassin history, is in charge of the state soldiers, and there is also a lieutenant of the division, who is a Beijing official appointed by the imperial court and is specifically responsible for supervision.

In fact, this is the separation of powers among the executive, military, and supervision, so that no one person can dominate it.

"However, the imperial court is declining, and it is difficult to return, but it is not a clever plan to bring the dead back to life......"

The clerk sighed in his heart, came to the door, and bowed respectfully: "Lord Qiqi Assassin Shi, there are lines of Pingshan and Dingyuan counties!" ”

"It's Yu Wen, send it up!"

Gao Shun coughed, but he could clearly call out the names of every official under his command, obviously with a very good memory and admirable.

Yu Wen's heart was hot, he tiptoed forward, put down the copy, and then took a few steps backwards to the corner, looking at his nose and nose, and hanging his hands.

In the hall, there were still several other people, a bearded and armored general immediately asked, "How?" ”

His voice was loud, like thunder, and it shook Yuwen's eardrums slightly.

"Ahem...... Dinghou Shitai, Shen Wu Pheasant was rampant, killed his beloved son, please conquer it...... Hehe, saying that he is willing to send troops to help suppress him, isn't this taking advantage of our momentum to avenge him? ”

Gao Shun read it one by one: "It's just that the next one is Qi Lin, the envoy of Pingshan County, and the document of Baoju Wu Pheasant as the envoy of Nanfeng County, the two seem to have colluded secretly, and even jointly denounced Dinghou, cough cough...... It's really you singing and I'm on the stage, it's so lively......"

"Bastard! What did this group of feudal towns regard as the name of the imperial court? ”

General Zhang shouted angrily, clapped his fists with his fists, and made a loud noise, obviously very angry.

"Ahem...... Lord Zhang was angry, and the court was weak, and at this time, he ...... Ahem...... As long as they know how to be vassals, keep this last bit of prestige...... Ahem, the old man has nothing more to ask for......"

Gao Shun seemed to say helplessly, but General Zhang's chest rose and fell violently, and he suddenly arched his hand: "My subordinates are going to inspect the barracks, so I will leave first!" ”

He saluted and went out, obviously furious.

"Alas...... Ahem......"

Gao Shun seemed to want to stand up, but he coughed again and again, so he could only sit helplessly.

"Please take care, sir!"

Yu Wen immediately stepped forward and helped Gao Shun to his seat: "Don't be in a hurry......

"Oh...... But ......"

It's just that after getting closer, Gao Shun's whisper also came from his ears: "I have the intention to kill the thief, I can't return to the sky, there are more than 10,000 soldiers in my state, all of them are old and weak, and the armament is not repaired, but the imperial court levy is getting more and more powerful, and if you are not satisfied, you will be impeached by the captain of the school, what can the old man and the state pastor do?" ”

Yu Wen was silent.

The situation in Dingzhou is not bad, but there are a few of them.

The rest of the states are either floods and droughts every year, or there are displaced people in rebellion, although Huang Ji died, the other beacon smoke has not been removed, and there are even imitations of the last days of the previous dynasty, self-reliance against the king, claiming to reform the life of the Great Zhou!

This bone-cutting pain is just around the corner, and the imperial court can only increase the apportionment and dispatch the last bit of elite killing.

I heard that the great war continued, and the two states were destroyed, and the people were killed and wounded, and the bones were exposed, which was unbearable.

Compared with these, although there are disasters in this state, the people are generally still alive, and this is the credit of the state pastor and the history of assassination.

"What about the paperwork?"

"If you don't send it, I will naturally report to Yu Taishou, as for the three feudal towns below, let them make trouble......"

Gao Shun closed his eyes tiredly, but Yu Wen read the shape of his mouth, obviously wanting to say 'dog eat dog'.

immediately resigned, and sighed again: "It's good to let it go, but after the three families annex each other and become the number one powerful domain in this state, it's really too late, but ...... It's none of my business, even if there are changes, with my magical powers, can't I protect the whole family? It's just that the elders of this alliance seem to have had little contact recently, and they don't know what happened at the top? (To be continued.) )
