Chapter 62: The Jin Luan Family
Without saying anything, kingship is like a big tree that has grown for thousands of years, with lush branches and leaves, like a shadow covering the entire land, so that the people under the tree cannot see the sun and hope.
Its trunk looks powerful, but in fact, it has long been decayed inside, but its root system is well developed and buried deep in the soil, so it is impossible to uproot it, so it can only be cut down step by step, slowly cutting off his vitality, blocking the supply of nutrients, and no longer giving him a chance to resurge.
First of all, they can't know the situation of the twelve families, so they don't say that they are the real old foxes, and they will definitely choose to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, unwilling to easily offend any party, the chance of winning over is slim, and the significance is not great.
This idea changed after several confidential letters were received from the upper echelons of the union, these families were connected to the interests of the royal power and were inseparable, and the gods had divine power and the hearts of the people, and now they had made a choice not only with their own families, but also with their warriors and servants.
They are all smart people, they know what the general trend is, and they agree with the way the union handles things, and they are willing to accept this change, but they are now in an awkward situation, and they dare not betray the king openly, and no matter how the king falls, there are still private soldiers and residual power, and they are too close, and if they have a slight disagreement, they will definitely be retaliated by the tyrant, but they are afraid that the new gods will be punished, so they hope that the gods will jump over them and deal directly with the royal family, and then they will sincerely believe in the new gods.
I want to stand as a god, but I don't want to offend the king, where is there such a good thing, since there is a good thing to send to the door, I will not let it go easily, but in the name of the gods, I will come forward and make a deal with them.
The spokesman of the gods accepted the courtship of the family, and only expropriated the wasteland that had been accumulated in their hands for a long time, and they only needed to be exempted from taxes for three years in exchange for 100 acres of fertile land and 1,000 acres of arable land, and after three years, there was still grain and wealth in the account, which was also a profitable business for them, and they were naturally happy, after all, the reason why they had to levy heavy taxes was also to provide for the royal family and satisfy their luxurious life.
This winter, nine of the twelve families surrendered, they raised a total of 10,000 hectares of land, when the ice and snow melted, the trade union will reasonably distribute the rat servants in the royal capital and the poor villagers in the more remote mountainous areas, and at the same time encourage new industrialists, vigorously research and develop farming tools, in order to prepare for the spring ploughing in the coming year, the combination of two and two, hoping to help the poor grasp the next three years that can generate income and become rich.
There are only three families that insist on not surrendering and not expressing, namely the king's brother-in-law Jiang family, the Yan family, the queen's maiden family, and a mysterious Jinluan family.
"What kind of family is it, have you found out?" Bao Le asked if there was any excuse for the return of the inquiry.
"Checking the chronicles of various families does find that this family is even more powerful than we imagined, but it is too low-key, so it is not known, and their pure-blooded clansmen live in seclusion in the Yuanyin Mountain, and Shizun, as well as some teachers of the school, are all exiled clansmen, even so, their power and influence are still not to be underestimated, but unfortunately this family carries a bloodline curse, so it can always get the opportunity to serve the gods."
When the river melted into ice, the weather was extremely cold, so he took a sip of hot drink and continued: "It is said that the descendants of the pure-blooded Jinluan people are very easy to turn into demons, and the red-eyed baby is regarded as ominous by humans, so they do not leave the mountain for a long time, and are separated in the fairy god mountain by knocking on the sky.
The exiled people look no different from ordinary people, they secretly intermarry with commoners, want to dilute the blood, at first it was fine, but there are still some half-grown children will suddenly demonize, be ruthlessly exterminated by humans, their fathers grieve, their mothers grieve, how innocent are children...... The ruthless master and master have also experienced such the pain of losing a child. ”
"You mean, the ruthless master and the master used to be two people?" Baole exclaimed, no wonder Shizun is always looking for fault, he can't let go of Shitai, he is obviously so close, but because of the wound in his heart that is difficult to heal, he can't get close.
Yu Wu nodded, "Well, this family has a long history, dating back to before the establishment of the country, their people have supreme wisdom, they are the first followers of Knock Heaven, and they also assisted the first king to open up the territory with the Dragon Shape Mountain as the center, and at the same time have the financial resources that rival the country.
With the technical support of the beans, the entire dragon-shaped mountain wonders have been created, and the prosperous route of navigation and transportation has been created, but it is a pity that the curse is on the back, the previous generation is already old, and the new generation has escaped the curse, with mediocre qualifications and difficult to take on a big responsibility. They were once glorious, but now they are like old people who are dying, and it should be difficult for them to accept the new trendy ideas. "It's admirable, it's embarrassing.
Baole thought of the prohibition of Yuanyin Mountain, without knocking on the sky, lost the meaning of guarding, that is not seclusion but isolation, according to her shallow genetics to knowledge analysis, Shizun They are the recessive genes of the demons, so they can return to human life, the heirs are half-demons who may awaken, and the Yuanyin Mountain is very likely to be the real demon!
It seems that I still don't know much about this world, the human world is complicated enough, and there are demons, beasts, half-demons and demons, and this mess thrown down by knocking on the sky is getting more and more chaotic.
By innocently bearing Baole's glare, he thought about it carefully, and didn't find anything wrong with the words, the girl was obviously in the wrong mood and didn't want to speak out, he had no choice but to step forward and hug her tightly, so thin and didn't eat, it really worried him.
After the beginning of spring, the two of them went to school normally, and Baole finally found an opportunity to block Shizun at the door of the men's toilet.
"Tell me, what the hell are you going to do? Blocking people is coming here, is this what a normal lady does, why do you stay with you every day, and you are getting more and more rude? "The hatred on the face of the master is not steel.
Baole knew that he was at a loss, so he respectfully invited the master to go to Bicheng Lake, some doubts always have to be solved, escape is destined to be inescapable, and it is time.
"Tell me, what do you want to ask?" The old man stood by the lake, not to mention, he really had a bit of the meaning of fairy wind and bones, and he was worthy of being a disciple who had to knock on the sky, but he was really not suitable for teaching!
"Master, can you tell me about Bicheng Lake first?" Recently, I have learned a lot of lessons from borrowing from Wu, and I must not pick up the important questions when asking questions, others may not know more than her, and I accidentally exposed myself, and I didn't get the answer, but I became a puzzle solver, and she has been pitted several times.
"No matter how many bizarre stories Bicheng Lake has had before, it is now just the entrance to Yuanyin Mountain, you have been there twice, and you already know about it." Shizun is really not simple.
"Who is that idol in the tower?" Bole continued to ask.
"He was originally a divine soldier who knocked on the sky, and now he is the prison god tower that seals the Far Seal Mountain, when the Knock Heaven leaves, it will follow, if the seal of the Far Seal Mountain is not guarded by an artifact, the red-eyed pure demon who has been bound for ten thousand years will come out, and he will use killing to release the anger abandoned by the gods, and this place will also be devastated, and the body of the divine dragon will not collapse, and it will not escape the fate of the destruction of the living souls." Scared, this is not the same as what the divine envoy said, when the divine soldiers become fine, they will fool people, terrible!
"Before knocking on the sky, I kept saying that the demon is the worst evil in the world, and I would rather burn the half-demon, why don't you clean up the red-eyed pure demon?" Baole is crazy, things are going round and round, and they are involved in the destruction of the world again! It's so hard to save someone!
"Although all things are gorgeous, but life is short after all, the demons are loyal servants who have accompanied the Knock Heaven through the long years, but it is a pity that the demons are bloodthirsty, mutilating living beings, and repeatedly teaching them to change, so Knock Heaven will lock them up in Yuanyin Mountain for long-term transformation.
Outside the mountain, the demon with a good nature, has become the new favorite of the knocking sky, knocking on the sky every time after the return of the calamity, the soul will be weak, the memory is also missing, in the most painful time, he will always repeatedly say, there will be a generation of demon kings to help him out of this boundless sea of suffering, his expectant eyes, so that the demons are very sad, take the opportunity to coax him to drink the blood-stained holy lake water to heal, originally wanted to pollute the god, leave him for a long time, did not expect to make his soul separate, temperament changed greatly, in the end became a helpless wandering spirit, and then there is nothing to do to destroy the demon. ”
This is different from what the oracle said, Baole has a bunch of question marks in her head, so whose myths should she believe?
Combined with the two of them, in the early stage, it should have been the life and death tribulation of the body of the knocking heaven, and then he was trapped by the demon clan, causing his soul to be separated, and the life plate line was shot out, and the body was also dissipated, leaving only the original soul to survive in this realm?
It really makes sense to think like this, no wonder, the punishment of heaven has ended, and it is difficult for the soul of the god to return to the sky, he favors the demon clan and raises tigers, but after all, he still eats the consequences.
She found that she also had the potential to make up stories, anyway, the same thing, after the baptism of the years, different positions, different angles of looking at things, and different understandings, everyone is more willing to accept the version that she can accept, even if it will deviate from the facts, she will not find fault with this.
No matter what she has experienced in the past, it has little to do with her now, every time she listens to a mythical story, she can only sympathize with him, what a miserable dragon, I knew it was so, why bother in the first place? Honestly soared, where did so many stories come from! Good people do not necessarily have good rewards, and blindly being kind will lose more.
"When I first entered the tower, I had a brief communication with Knock Heaven, at that time, because of nothing, for the half-demon screaming, he said that it was to save the common people and destroy the demon, except for a demon can save tens of thousands of lives, maybe he was not confused at that time, and even made a choice for me soberly, he would rather die in the soul, but also want to leave the giant tower, protect all creatures." That's why he stopped her later and intimidated her.
"This game is hard to break, Hong Nian, if it were you, what would you choose?" Shizun asked her the first question.
"I don't make choices, I want to save people, and I have to keep this world, even if it's difficult!" Bao Le said without hesitation.
"Okay, the king, I will help you persuade that there will never be a bloody war, and we will also help to manage this country well, so that all beings are equal and the people are free, you just need to concentrate on being the one who solves the situation."
In a few words, Shizun arranged things clearly, they put the king as a strong enemy in the end, and now even the head-to-head confrontation is saved, alas, the Jinluan family is really not simple.
"Master, you have the ability to change this country, why haven't you taken action all the time? I've also heard about your past with the ruthless teacher, why didn't you prevent the tragedy from happening in the first place? ”
