Chapter 221: Longmen Mountain

Two figures overlapped, one virtual and one real, unable to distinguish between true and false, and then, the virtual shadow began to shrink slowly, and then gradually cleared, when the virtual shadow was only half the size of the real shadow, it was already clear half, and then continued to shrink, to about one-third of the real shadow, no longer changed, stopped. At this time, the phantom, except for looking a little trance, was already as clear as the real image, and exuded a dazzling golden light.

Qu Shan suddenly opened his eyes, and the two divine rays flashed away.

This is the result of several years after he reached the state of monasticism.

The shadow of the divine soul, which originally coincided with the body, became more and more condensed after his continuous practice, gradually shrinking from the same size as the physical body, until this time, it was only one-third of the physical body.

Qu Shan had never been exposed to the cultivation method of the cultivation realm, so he didn't know if this cultivation was correct, but he could feel that with the compression of his divine soul, his perceptual ability became stronger and stronger, from the initial 1,000 zhang, to 2,000 zhang, and 5,000 zhang......

Nowadays, the song sheet feels the surroundings with heart, and can monitor everything around it.

He was inside the tent, and he could completely cover the entire caravan under spiritual power, and this ability, after reaching the realm of cultivation, was called divine consciousness.

The ability is expanding, and Qu Shan is relieved, at least, the direction is right, but he can't find the way to cultivate, and he just takes more detours.

Smiling slightly, he looked at Pei Cainan, who was still immersed in cultivation, and got up and walked out of the tent.

In the distance, a bonfire roars.

The caravan's guards stayed up all night, vigilantly watching everything around them.

At this time, the caravan has arrived near the border between the Snow Clan and Suiguo, and in a day or two, it will be able to enter the territory of Suiguo.

Along the way, the caravan caught people from Suiguo and inquired about the situation of the war, and finally came to a conclusion that Suiguo was really in chaos, and the rebellion was quite serious.

The caravan went up to Qi Lie and down to the guys, and their faces were covered with layers of dark clouds.

Qu Shan walked to the nearest bonfire and chose an empty seat to sit down, where Qi Lie, Manager Sun and others were impressively among them.

Crackle –

Firewood burst into a puff of sparks, and the flickering light of the fire reflected the faces of the people around them.

"The chaos on the border is far greater than we have ever heard!" The caravan has been here for five days, and in the past few days, there have been as many as tens of thousands of refugees fleeing from Suiguo, and this riot is even more serious than we imagined," said Chief Sun .......

"It's not a way to stay here forever, you have to think of a way to return to China!" Qi Lie waved his hand and said, "Have the guards sent out to find out the news come back?"

"The last batch hasn't come back yet, but they will be back tomorrow at the latest, and we'll have concrete news by then. Mr. Sun replied.

"Very well, then wait another night. In any case, we will set off tomorrow, our caravan is too big, and staying here too long will easily attract attention, and if we are besieged by rebels or bandits, it will not end well......"

Several people nodded heavily, and after a moment, they dispersed.

Qi Lie sat in place, nodded at Qu Shan with a smile, threw over a wine jug, and said, "Take a sip!"

Qu Shan took it, looked up to the sky and poured a sip, the strong aroma of wine slid down his throat, followed by a hot burning sensation, burning his whole body for a while.

"Good wine!" Qu Shan praised and threw it back.

"It's a good wine, I have treasured it for many years, and ordinary people can't drink it," Qi Lie nodded and looked to the east, "However, this road is not easy to walk, if I encounter rebels, maybe the good wine I buried in the cellar of my home will not have a chance to drink it again." ”

Qu Dan's heart moved: "Boss Qi, what is going on with this riot in Suiguo, is the people revolting?"

"The people revolt, it's almost......" Qi Lie poured another sip of wine, "In fact, we follow the country, and the taxes are extremely heavy, and the ordinary people, if they are farming, have to pay seventy percent of the harvest to the government a year, and if they are merchants, they have to pay fifty percent of the trade taxes to the government...... Even our Jiqing trading house must pay taxes to the government, like our trip, a small half of the goods are prepared for the government, so the people revolt, and ......"

"Listening to Boss Qi, it seems that you are familiar with this riot?"

Qi Lie smiled: "It's very familiar, in the past hundred years, there have been three civil strife in Suiguo, once every thirty years, and many people are used to it......"

Qu Dan smacked his tongue, when he was in the Violent Bear Clan, he always thought that the East was a rich and beautiful place, but now it seems that it is a bloody place full of war, much worse than the wild forests of the Snow Clan.

"However, each of these civil strife has been suppressed extremely quickly! In fact, the government of our country knows that such a strict tax is easy to cause civil unrest, but it still has to do it. ”

"Oh, why is that?" Qu Shan asked curiously.

"Because of the existence of Longmen Mountain!" Qi Lie's eyes flashed, as if he was looking up and revering, "We worship the Fire Gate, although we are called the second largest sect in Suiguo, but the strength of the sect is only a few tenths of Longmen Mountain, and with the master of this sect, it is only equivalent to one elder at most in Longmen Mountain...... This Suiguo is simply the country of Longmen Mountain!"

Qu Shan Huo Ran was moved, a dignified country, but it is actually a sect!

"The origin of Longmen Mountain, can be traced back to 10,000 years ago, since the creation of the faction, he is above the supremacy of the country of the super faction, with the country's princes and ministers, generals and generals, eighty percent of them are from Longmen Mountain, even the current emperor, is also a generation of Longmen Mountain after the master, the entire Suiguo, are operating under the will of Longmen Mountain......"

Is that okay?

This kind of sect is above the country, Qu Shan has heard of it for the first time, and he scratched his head: "But even so, the people of Longmen Mountain are not stupid, why do they levy such heavy taxes?"

"Because of the strength! Longmen Mountain is only the number one faction in Suiguo, and there are more sects outside Suiguo, and there are many more sects than Longmen Mountain! The cultivation in the East is slightly different from that of the Snow Clan, here, cultivation requires extremely large resources, and resources are obtained from the land, which leads to the fact that there are often things that occur between sects to grab land, and the big sect of the Gate is to control a country, use the country to build an army, and carry out war and plunder......"

Sizzle-

Qu Shan couldn't help but take a breath, what kind of place is this East......

"Sect cultivation, sect war, national war...... In order to support the huge consumption, it naturally leads to heavy taxes on the people, and civil strife breaks out, which is inevitable......"

Qu Shan nodded blankly, he was a little impressed.

"However, little brother, you don't have to worry too much," Qi Lie got up and patted Qu Shan on the shoulder, "This civil strife, at least a year, at most three or five years, will be suppressed...... As soon as the master of Longmen Mountain comes out, no matter who starts up in trouble, he will inevitably die!"

Belch......

The song list was completely speechless.
