Yuan Ming Kingdom Kyoto, Zhengyang City

At this time early in the morning,

The gate guards have just changed their guards,

There is still a chill in the night on the armor,

"Liu Tou, congratulations on getting a big fat boy," the one who spoke was the guard at the front,

About twenty years old,

"Thank you," Liu Tou laughed, this joy jumped on his eyebrows, and he couldn't hide it at all.

Someone came to the city,

Liu Tou put away the laughter and checked the customs clearance documents of the visitor,

When the man is gone,

The guard said to Liu Tou, "It's still a little cold this day,"

The guards shuddered,

"It's a little cold....." Liu Tou frowned,

Supposedly, the sky shouldn't be so cold,

"Liu, Liu Tou, what's that?!" The guard looked ahead,

trembling with fright,

Liu Tou raised his head,

I saw a large lump of black and red things on the road in the distance moving towards this side,

I can still hear a few distant thunders,

Liu Tou looked carefully,

Suddenly I found that it seemed to be,

A mountain of corpses!!

Liu Tou stumbled in fright,

"Corpse, corpse mountain!!"

"Vigilance, vigilance!!"

Liu Tou turned around and ran with the guards,

The guard device on the castle tower was immediately turned on,

"Bell bell", the rapid bell rang out from the city tower,

Many people woke up at the sound of the bells,

A figure from the palace rushed out,

Go straight to the gates.....

———— Source City ————

"Miss Yu, the water you want is good,"

The maid came to shout to the stunned Zhu Ke,

Zhu Ke sobered up,

"Thank you,"

"Don't be so polite." The maid bowed and departed,

Zhu Ke went to the bathhouse in the inner room,

Take off your cloak and go in,

Sitting in it and a little trance,

The petals are fragrant,

Zhu Ke's heart is like numbness,

"Is it a dream?"

"What the hell are those?"

Zhu Ke asked Xiaoice, last night it was really not clear,

Zhu Ke felt that it was not telling the truth,

But that can't be how Xiaoice,

Dreams with palpitations,

Zhu Ke still clearly remembers the noble phoenix, the weird man, the fallen palace,

There are still sequelae of irritability in my heart,

sad and overwhelmed,

This weird dream!

Could it be the one she absorbed yesterday?

The hateful Xiaoice didn't say anything,

Zhu Ke slapped the water,

Forget it, it didn't cause any harm to her, she was in a trance,

Xiaoice told her about it!

Zhu Ke washed himself,

changed into clothes,

Today it's black,

Zhu Ke tied his arms,

Dried my hair and tied a ball on my head,

The breakfast maid was already on the table outside,

As soon as Zhu Ke came out,

The maid bowed down and withdrew,

She clearly knows Zhu Ke's temper,

Zhu Ke looked at the food with all the color and flavor,

For the first time, I lost my appetite,

Just take two bites,

Zhu Ke went out to find Xiao Chenchen and them,

I'm going out to play today, when will I be happy and when will I come back!

But Zhu Ke failed to do so.

A bunch of guests came to the City Lord's Mansion,

The five of Zhu Ke want to go with them to the Tower of Knowledge in Source City,

The trip that was originally scheduled to leave tomorrow was brought forward to this evening for some reason.

Zhu Ke looked at the forty boys and girls in front of him with a dark face,

"Sister Ke'er, something happened suddenly, ....."

Qin Chutian was embarrassed beside him,

He knew that Zhu Ke was going to go around the interior of Source City today and have some fun.

However, who knew that the city lord had temporarily changed his mind,

When he went to invite Zhu Ke,

Xiao Chenchen and the others are ready to go,

As soon as he spoke, the faces of the two girls cooled down at a speed visible to the naked eye,

Although nothing was said,

In his heart, alas.....

"It's okay, Brother Chu Tian, when I come back, I can also play," Zhu Ke smiled, looking so fragile and sad,

Qin Chutian felt that he was even more sorry for Zhu Ke,

The vice president of the source city government school came out of the city lord's study,

The vice president is a middle-aged man who looks like he is forty or fifty years old.

The surname is Zhou, the name is not mountain,

Zhou Bushan coughed twice,

"The students must have understood the purpose of going to the Knowledge Tower today,"

"The unified examination is coming, and it's time for the life card to light up,"

"Don't talk nonsense, come with me, students,"

This time I went to the Tower of Knowledge,

is to light up the life cards of the teenagers who participated in the unified examination,

Zhu Ke resigned himself to following Qin Chutian,

As the troops left the city lord's mansion,

I have to say that the children in Source City are quite energetic.

In order to increase the sense of honor for the students,

From the City Lord's Mansion to the Tower of Knowledge,

They walked and went,

The people of Source City have seen these children who are about to fight,

are also genius children,

But today's walk,

Who knows how many more people will come back,

How many people sleep forever in the land of tigers and wolves in the unified examination,

So far the world has nothing to do with him,

Most of these students are from poor families.

Middle-class ones are almost none,

Children like Qin Chutian who can come back alive to a large extent,

are all from several major families in Source City,

Rich, powerful, talented,

The survival rate in the UEC is much higher than that of other students.

The kids chattered all the way,

Zhu Ke also heard many children discussing the five members of their family.

Mostly, "That Yu Ke's talent is really high, six and a half years old!" ”

"It's worthy of Senior Brother Siyang's family,"

"But other people's cultivation is also similar to ours, how did they also enter the president's team?"

"The people of the Yu family will naturally be together, with Yu Ke here, the president's team will definitely be able to survive to the end..."

Li Ziyan and Yu Fuhua, who are cultivating for the public, are very quiet,

Xiao Chenchen was behind Zhu Ke, knowing that Zhu Ke was unhappy, and he was also very quiet,

Yu's family didn't say a word,

It made the people of Source City discuss louder,

The Tower of Learning has finally arrived.

The Tower of Knowledge is the Tower of Divine Consciousness for graduates of Genjo Fuxue,

Many students who graduated from Yuancheng Mansion School left a lot of weapons and basic martial arts in the Knowledge Tower.

Only the students who have contributed to the source city are qualified to go to select and learn.

A hundred meters high black tower stands in the easternmost lake of Source City,

Zhou Bushan took out a black palm-sized stone,

Throwing in the water,

There was a little splash on the surface of the water, and then, waves of ripples came from far and near,

The big black turtle came up from the bottom of the lake,

Closer and closer to the lake,

When the turtle stops at the lake,

Zhou Bushan jumped up,

Then he pinched the seal with his hand,

I saw a water barrier appear, carrying the students to the back of the turtle,

Zhu Ke landed safely on the turtle's back,

The vice president of the water system, this control of water spiritual power, yes,

The students were frightened at first, and then when they were steadily moving on the back of the turtle, they also began to look at the scenery of the lake.

This lake is connected to the great river outside the source city,

Large black fish can be seen swimming in schools in the water,

The big turtle carries more than 50 people and has a lot of spare,

I don't know how old the old monster is,

The Tower of Learning is getting closer,

The black tower reflects the white light in the sun,

Inexplicably looks a little lonely,

The Tower of Knowledge is actually guarded by an old man from the Lingtai Realm,

This old turtle was also raised by him,

Cultivators in the Lingtai realm have a lifespan of four hundred years,

This old turtle has also lived in the Tower of Knowledge for nearly 400 years.

That predecessor is now sweeping the floor in front of the tower of knowledge on the island,

Seeing that Zhou Bushan came with the children,

The old man stopped sweeping the floor and put the broom up,

Looking at the children who were still looking around,

Coughed lightly,

He knew what these kids were up for.

I took a closer look at the children,

It seems that I want to see the children's appearance clearly,

Zhu Ke got off the turtle's back and saw the old man at a glance,

The old man who guarded the Tower of Knowledge once participated in a cross-border war, how to say,

At that time, the Yuanming realm encountered some trouble,

sent soldiers to fight with the small world of Jinyu next door,

The old man lost his wife and children in that war,

also permanently damaged the meridians,

The spiritual veins are damaged, and the lifelong cultivation can no longer be advanced.

The old man dragged his broken body to live in the Tower of Knowledge for more than 300 years.

I don't know why, Zhu Ke remembered her great-grandfather,

The old man guards the people,

Millions of people live in peace and contentment under his hands,

However, Zhu Ke has also seen him alone on the roof of the house looking at the starry sky,

That kind of loneliness, very similar to this old man,

The old man saw Zhu Ke,

After a pause,

How old is this kid?

Zhu Ke is very prominent among the teenagers,

Almost everyone was half a body taller than her,

Peony Ling is a head taller than her,

What's more special, in this group of young and sunny teenagers,

Zhu Ke wore black alone,

Zhou Bushan went to the old man's side,

Salute the old man, "Bian Lao,"

The old man retracted his gaze, nodded, took the broom and turned to go inside,

"Bring the kids."

Zhou Bushan bowed slightly in the back,

Then he said to the students, "Follow me, don't run around." ”

"Yes!"

Here Zhu Ke and they entered the Tower of Knowledge, and the palace of Zhengyang City over there was a stir.

"Your Majesty! The Nine Emperors killed many officials without a killing order, and they couldn't stay! ”

A white-bearded and white-haired white old man knelt on the ground and shouted in pain and sorrow,

Tears flowed, people mourned,

The middle-aged emperor in the yellow robe rubbed his brow irritably,

There are many officials below who echo it,

Five or six old ministers have come forward to demand that his son pay the blood debt to those officials.

"Your Majesty, think twice, the Nine Emperor Princes have already said that those are the people who should be killed, and for those crimes, they will already be sentenced to the crime of exterminating the Nine Clans!"

After looking at the anxious Zuo Xiang and finally stood up,

said a fair word,

"What Li Xiang said is wrong, whether he should kill everything should be judged by His Majesty, the Nine Emperor Princes are lawless, besides, the Nine Emperor Princes, drag a mountain of corpses to the Imperial City, and don't take the royal majesty in their eyes at all!" The soldier who was already standing in the middle opened his mouth to retort, his eyes were a little red,

In that mountain of corpses, one-third of them were his students' clansmen, and the Nine Emperor Princes deceived people too much!

"Your Majesty, my nephew, I know that he will definitely not do these things, please Your Majesty to be clear!" The mighty general on the side has already come out with snot and tears,

This caused other people to echo it,

The scene is even more chaotic,

The emperor put his hand down,

Looking at the expressionless teenager kneeling at the front,

"Ting'er, what else do you have to say?"

The court suddenly fell silent,

The boy raised his eyes,

Looking at the emperor in his seat,

Suddenly smiled lightly,

"I said, those are the ones who should be killed,"

The emperor's heart suddenly twitched,

Of course I know that you are killing the one who deserves to be killed,

But if you kill it, you will kill it,

What are you going to do with their corpses and drag them to the gates of Kyoto!

These people are convicting you of killing people without a warrant,

Alas, a headache!

The emperor wanted to rub his brow again,

Before he could speak,

Suddenly there was a sound at the gate,

"National teacher, please see the emperor!"

The emperor's hand trembled,

"Xuan!"

The chamberlain next to him shouted, "Passing on the national teacher!" ”

The boy lowered his head again,

makes it impossible to see his expression,

The national teacher dressed in moire white walked into the main hall,

"I've seen Your Majesty,"

"The national teacher is exempted,"

"Your Majesty," after the national teacher saluted, he first glanced at the young man kneeling next to him,

Look at the Emperor again,

"Your Majesty, I saw more than 3,000 people kneeling beside the corpse mountain outside the gate of the capital,"

"What!" The emperor was shocked, who? Are these family members down there? Did you come to the door to explain the law? Are you going to pester his family nine?

"Your Majesty, and I heard from the ministers that those people were kneeling on the ground, but they bowed in the direction of the palace, and they shouted, please forgive the Nine Emperor Princes,"

"The number of people is still increasing, mostly ordinary people, who are following behind the Nine Emperor Princes all the way,"

"There are the most elderly and children, their clothes are ragged, and many of them have yellow faces and thin muscles, but they don't eat or drink for a day and a night just to go to Beijing,"

"Intercede for the Nine Emperor Princes,"

The national teacher said and sighed softly,

"That's mostly the people of Qingzhou, they, thank the Nine Emperor Princes, but they are also afraid of the Nine Emperor Princes, but they are here."

The young man slowly raised his head, and there was some sparkle in his eyes,

After hearing this, the emperor first looked at his son,

I feel distressed, but I am also angry,

Bastard Qingzhou's Thorn History and City Lord,

The whole Lao Tzu's son is burdened with this devil's reputation, and he cries all the time!

"Decree! Hang the corpses of the Qingzhou Assassin, the Qingzhou City Lord, and those who participated in the oppression on the city wall,"

"Accept the people of Qingzhou into Dali Temple, and try the Qingzhou case,"

"Arrest all those involved in the case and kill those who arrest them,"

"All those who plead for the Qingzhou case will be dealt with as the crime of harboring!"

The officials in the court were shocked,

The group in the middle has begun to tremble,

The emperor glanced at the kneeling officials,

"Snort",

"Prince, you are in charge of this case!"

His Royal Highness the Prince, who had been listening quietly for a long time, responded, "Yes." ”

"Retreat!"

"The national teacher and the Nine Emperor Princes stay!"

The attendant next to him quickly answered,

"Retreat from the !!"
