Chapter 250: Raising the Desert to Hang Down
At first, it was the nobles who did not hold official positions who were the first to support this proposal, but gradually everyone came to their senses.
In the future of India-Parthian Empire, the emperor must be Ardaban V of Parthians, and Princess Tolan can only be the empress, and it is difficult to help the Kushan nobles speak all the time. If there is a senate, then it can effectively check and balance the imperial power, and whether it is the nobles or officials in Peshawar, it must be a great guarantee.
And Alexander, as a Roman, was of course happy to see Roman traditions spread far and wide.
In addition, the nobles of Ctesiphon, such as Surin, were worried that the nobles of Peshawar would take away all the benefits and were unwilling to engage in any more armed conflicts, so he also liked this suggestion.
The proposal to establish the Senate was adopted on the spot, and the rest included the candidates, the ratio of the two senators, the location of the Senate, the method of voting, and so on. There is no need for Alexander and Zhang Bai to bother, these things are already based on the ready-made system of the Roman Senate as a reference.
Alexander decided to leave these matters to Maximinus and let him deal with the nobles.
Looking at the bewildered look of Maximinus, who was born in the military, Alexander laughed: "You should get in touch with politics, you can't be a guard forever! I still expect you to go to the Danube to lead the troops in the future!"
Maximinus was very happy to hear this, because at this time, the worst places in the Roman Empire were in the north. The entire northern border, from northwest to southeast, along the Rhine to the Danube, was the territory of the barbarians on the other side of the two rivers, and there were endless wars.
There was a shortage of capable and loyal generals everywhere, so Alexander's words actually meant that Maximinus was promoted to the rank of commander of the legion, which was a very high honor for Roman soldiers, and he was of course very happy.
Seeing Maximinus' excited appearance, Alexander smiled and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement, and then left the palace with Zhang Bai.
......
That night, Zhang Bai entered the dream world again, this time he had time, and he also used the magic circle in advance, bringing in the kid Lingling.
The main thing today is to find the three guys, Xiaohei, Xiaobai and Piggy, who have been missing for several days.
However, where can I find such a big dream realm demon capital?
He tried to shout Pig Pig loudly, but this spirit beast that has always been obedient and obedient is no longer like a summoned beast at all, no matter how it is called, it is useless, and even Pig Pig's good friend, Lingling Zhang Daoling is useless to call him, which makes Lingling very depressed, so Zhang Bai simply brought him to look for him this time.
At night in the deserted demon capital, moonlight and street lamps are the only sources of light, and the whole city is very eerily quiet.
Although Zhang Bai has been busy and slept less in the past few days, he has not had much time to search, but he still found some clues.
It was this strange silence that made him discover that the dream world of the magic capital had changed a lot. Usually, this dream world is not so quiet, there are often some black shadows like zombies walking around slowly, and they often gather under the street lamps.
Whether they walked or made sounds, it made the wasteland seem a little animated. But recently, these dark shadows have disappeared completely.
Zhang Bai thought about it and thought about it, there was only one explanation, that is, Zhang Xiaohei, the guy who specializes in soul eating.
So if you want to find those guys, shouldn't you follow the route where the shadow is the least? Zhang Bai told Ling Ling what he thought, and Ling Ling felt that it was no problem, just find it quickly.
Pigs, they may have run far in the past few days. Zhang Bai's worries are growing day by day, especially after Yu Zhenzi breaks in.
He found a random car on the side of the road, this time it was a business car, in order to have more seats in the business car, and after finding those guys, it was convenient to bring them back.
Lingling, who was riding a car for the first time, was shocked, and looked at the car without a horse pulling on its own, and felt incredible, thinking that it was some kind of magic, and was so excited that he looked up and down, left and right.
The business car traveled through the high-rise buildings, and although the three boys cooperated with the skills of a novice female driver, they could not start the car without a key, they should be on foot, and Zhang Bai estimated that they could catch up. And there is a river on the west bank, so they can't go, they must go east.
The car got farther and farther away, and most of the street lights in this place were off, and only a few were still on.
Although the dirt road is not muddy, it is very slow to drive, which is enough for Zhang Bai to see his surroundings carefully. He did look very closely, but found no one. It is only certain that there is not a single dark shadow on the road.
If this situation is not done by Xiao Hei, Zhang Bai doesn't believe it, at least the direction of looking for it now should be correct.
Cars are slowly moving out of the city center, where there are fewer street lights, and many roads are thatched or even trees, making it harder to drive. In the end, the car was stopped in front of a blackened wood.
Zhang Bai slapped the steering wheel in frustration, he felt a little upset, and he couldn't say why.
Lingling suddenly said, "There seems to be something?"
It was dark all around, Zhang Bai sighed, and decided to use his worst divine sense to investigate, but as expected, he still didn't find any problems, but the uneasiness and anxiety became stronger and stronger.
"Do you feel a tremor?" asked Lingling.
"Vibration?" Zhang Bai hurriedly calmed down and felt his surroundings, but he still didn't feel any vibration.
"Let's get out of the car! It's strange that this isn't my own dream, is there any danger?" he grumbled, teaching Lingling how to open the car door, and then pushed the door himself and got out of the car.
Feet on the soft mud and feel the breath around you. It was very different from the balsa woods, where the smell was fresh and damp, and there was a slight stench, like fertilized land and wild beasts.
Beasts? Zhang Bai suddenly became alert, he was a city man in his previous life, and he was an immortal cultivator in this life, how many beasts had he seen in the wild? At this moment, in his mind, there was only one picture of a beast, that is, a fierce beast that he had seen in an uninhabited village by the Indus River.
But how could there be a fierce beast in his dream world? To say that there would be a big mushroom suddenly exploding is more reliable than this idea.
"Impossible, impossible!" he muttered to himself, shaking his head.
"There are fierce beasts, for sure!"
"How can it be fierce... Oh, really?"
It was Lingling's voice that made Zhang Bai suddenly realize that what he said was probably right.
"Then let's get in the car and get ready to run!"
"It seems too late!"
"How..."
Zhang Baileng was on the ground, the woods in front of him were originally black and oppressive, but suddenly, this darkness seemed to condense into a mass of substance, and slowly moved.
Only then did he feel the vibration that Ling Ling had said, a slight, almost friction-like humming sound that reminded Zhang Bai of the whispered discussions in the court today. It seems that there are countless people who are chattering in front of them.
"What the hell is this?"
