β¦β¦
"Zhou Jiebin, the governor of Buzhou, is known as Zhou Zhou. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Pande replied, apparently having done his homework.
"Zhizhou? Isn't that the governor of a state? Buchen frowned, he dared to kill ten or ten even the king, how could an official or not care about it? The main reason is that the other party is obviously a low-level official, why is there such a precious thing? Even if the other party's subordinate or a certain inferior gentleman gives a gift, there is no reason to give such a valuable thing, after all, the other party will leave in a few years.
"That's right! As for where did the Wushan official bottle of this Zhou Zhou official come from......" Speaking of this, a wicked smile appeared on Pande's panda face that was extremely incommensurate with his honest appearance.
"Brother Pan, don't sell it!" Buchen said with a wry smile.
Pande nodded, and said solemnly: "It was his inverted team who came back." β
"His inverted team?!" Buchen's eyes widened in surprise, "He's an official!" And isn't this kind of thing the most hated by the Li family? "I still know that in a moral society like Seris, stealing someone's grave is no different from killing parents, and it is an extremely unconscionable act! It's just that he is a thief to do this, but the governor of Zhou is a state official, how dare he do this?!
"Yes." Pande sank his face, "There is no doubt that it is the inverted team of this state official." As for the Li family or something...... Pan De looked a little helpless, "Brother No, haven't you heard the phrase 'thousands of miles of officials are only for money'?" β
Of course Buchen has heard of it, "It's just that this is too frustrating, right?" Didn't anyone go to the Eastern Court to impeach him? β
Pan De only smiled bitterly: "Brother No, since ancient times, no matter ancient or modern, as long as there is no conflict of interest between this official and official, he has always worn a pair of pants, and the Zhou Zhou official did a very good job, not only did he benefit from the inverted fight, but also generously distributed the wealth he received to a group of superiors and subordinates, those officials don't say that they participated in the impeachment of him, and if they don't give a thumbs up and praise him, it is already low-key." β
Buchen also smiled bitterly twice, he had been in the war-torn Western Continent for a long time, and people had become naΓ―ve and simple.
"And ......," Pande sighed, "who let that be the grave of the Osan people?" β
"Aren't the people of Osan human?" The calf listened to it and interjected.
Pan De turned his head to look at him and explained with a smile: "Of course, the people of Osan are people, but they are people from enemy countries. β
Buchen doesn't know if the calf understands, anyway, he has already understood, Pande's meaning is very simple - people from enemy countries have no human rights.
"Children's families, learn the craft honestly, don't ask about these nonsense!" Blacksmith Li clenched his sandbag and gave his apprentice a chestnut, and as he spoke, he dragged the calf by the arm and pulled him away. This blacksmith brother didn't look right from hearing Buchen and Pan De mention the Zhou Zhou official's self-built inverted fighting team, and when he saw his apprentice interjecting at this time, he resolutely broke out!
Buchen and Pan De can guess what is wrong with Blacksmith Li, to put it bluntly, Blacksmith Li is an old and angry young man, he himself is skilled and honest, but he is unwilling because he is tired of being suppressed by his civilian bosses, and those civil officials who have the authority of a country are abusing their power and doing nonsense, how can he not be angry?
Pande looked at the back of Blacksmith Li and sighed, if he wanted to say angry, how could he not be angry? It's just that I've watched too much and suffered too much over the years, and I've become numb.
However, what Pan De and Buchen don't know is that the bureaucratic rebellion is not limited to Zhou Huoya, in fact, since the fall of the Osan Empire a hundred years ago, the Cyris Empire annexed its territory, divided it into four towns and seventy-two military states, and sent officials, it has been going on.
The wealth is moving, and the people are still like this, not to mention those officials who have suffered from the cold window for ten years, and only hope that there will be a time to bring back the goods and the emperor's family, and even bring back the profits, after all, the etiquette of the family is only a kind of moral bondage, and it lacks compulsion for people, and for the officials, the reason why they became disciples of the rites is not that they really believe that what this thing says is correct, but because as long as they read the books of the rites, they can become officials. And after they became officials, the religion of etiquette had in fact lost its meaning to most of them. And how would they be willing to give up low-hanging fruit for something that has lost its meaning and has no compulsion?
Therefore, at that time, not only the theft and excavation of the ancient tomb of Osan by the people was rampant, but even the bureaucrats joined in this carnival!
In such a carnival of inverted fighting with the participation of the whole people, the tombs of the ancient Wushan Empire undoubtedly suffered a huge catastrophe, although the Wushan Empire enjoyed a national life of more than 700 years, and there were countless emperors and nobles, but their tombs were basically stolen and excavated in less than a hundred years, and only some of the ancient tombs buried in the inaccessible mountains and old forests, and guarded by the corpse king, survived.
And Buzhou Zhizhou Zhou Huoya's Wushan official bottle is from a hidden in the mountains of Wushan ancient tomb, because it is the official inverted team, Zhouzhou official's inverted team is not comparable to the small civil gang in terms of personnel and equipment, ordinary personnel are the elite of the town army of the four towns of Wushan, and the team is led by the general and the Yin and Yang Sect Master hired at a high price, and the equipment is even more obedient, and it can be blatantly adjusted directly from the arsenal of the military town, what weapons are easy to use, what armor is strong and what is draped, If it is broken, it is not distressing, just report it directly to the state because it has been damaged for a long time, and if you meet a more honest Shangguan, maybe you will transfer another wave of inverted bucket equipment to them. And under such a powerful force, even the ancient tomb guarded by the Wushan Corpse King is not a big deal.
After Blacksmith Li left, Buchen groaned for a while and said, "Then I'll leave for Buzhou in a while." "He has already made up his mind to steal the Wushan official bottle from the Zhouzhou official's house, just kidding, why don't you steal the stolen goods of such dog officials, why don't you steal them?
"Hmm." Pande nodded, "Do you want to ask Fei Fei and Miss Ai Ai to come with you?" β
Buchen shook his head slightly: "It's enough for me to do this alone, but it will be troublesome if there are many people." β
"Then I wish Brother Buchen a success!" Pande clenched his fists and arched his hands.
Buchen smiled and said, "Do you have any detailed information?" For example, where did the dog official surnamed Zhou hide his stolen goods? β
Pande shook his head with some regret, and pointed with his thumb to the group of people at the window table who were still talking, "This generation is just hearsay, how clear are the details?" It's better to go to the ground and investigate. β
"Hmm." Buchen answered, called the shopkeeper, asked for some breakfast, ate two bites in three bites, asked Pan De to borrow some money, and went out of the inn.
"No, brother, don't you tell everyone?" Pan De asked with a wry smile, he never thought that Buchen would be in such a hurry.
"Without further ado, if someone else gets the Wushan official bottle and dedicates it to that Liao Zhaocai, won't the reward be gone?" Buchen said, "I'll leave the matter of informing everyone to Brother Pan, and you can stay in this shop before I come back, so as not to find you when I get back." β
"Okay, leave it to me." Pander nodded.
Buchen said goodbye to Pan De, and strode out of the city, but after he left the city, he did not go directly to the official road to Buzhou, but came to a cattle market outside the city.
Just kidding, it's more than 400 miles to Buzhou, should he drive 11 roads to walk there? A mount is essential.
Speaking of mounts, Buchen misses the King of the Dark Horse, but the brown-coated horse breed is not suitable for navigation, if you take it to sea, eighty percent of them will die of illness at sea halfway, for the safety of its horse, Buchen still left it in Litro City.
It's just that Buchen didn't plan to abandon the Dark Horse King, his original plan was to let Master Pope return home after the deal, and the trusted horse dealer would send the Dark Horse King, Fei Fei, and Ai Ai's mounts to the East by land, but there was a matter of the Pirate King on the way, and it was obvious that sending the Dark Horse King to the East would be delayed for a while.
Buchen's current money is not enough to buy any good horses, at most he can buy a pack horse that can walk, but Buchen does not plan to be picky, as long as this horse can carry him half the way, it is enough, as for the other half of the way, he plans to make a cameo appearance as a bandit and rob a horse.
He is not a thief of the gods, but he is not a good man and a woman, it is normal to rob a horse or something, but he has always been obedient to the people, so that the sun hit the west and came out!
After bargaining with a horse dealer, Buchen bought a pack horse with slightly older teeth, this pack horse was brown all over and had wide bones, and at a glance he knew that he had been a war horse in his early years, but because of his age, he was eliminated from the army and fell into the hands of a horse merchant. And this is the reason why this horse is not chosen, although because of age, the horse's endurance and speed are not very good, but as a long-trained war horse, its handling and courage are first-class, there is such a horse, in case of any emergencies can also respond in time, and the battle will not be frightened, like an ordinary pack horse is not good, just fart and urine flowed all over the ground.
At this time, at noon, Buchen bought some dry food and a gourd of wine at a stall outside the market, intending to eat and drink on the road, and then turned on his horse and embarked on a journey to Buzhou.
