Time flies, and a month has passed, and within this month, a lot of major events have happened, one of which is the attack of the brute beasts in the White Tiger Domain. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Since the beginning of autumn, the brute beasts in the White Tiger Domain have been restless, often attacking the low-level towns and cities in the domain, destroying a total of five third-level towns and cities, but this is not the point. The real point is that on the two seemingly ordinary days of October 17 and October 19, the two second-level towns and cities of the White Tiger Domain, Moshang Town and Siqin Town, were violently impacted by the tide of brute beasts, and before reinforcements arrived, the towns were destroyed and killed.

Above the barbarian star, death is a normal state that can be seen almost everywhere, but the destruction of the second-level towns and cities is a rare occurrence in decades, not to mention the destruction of two in a row in just two days, this news suddenly caused an extremely serious panic in the White Tiger Domain.

And for Mo Shang Town, which is at the junction of the White Tiger Domain and the Xuanwu Domain, that breath of death not only affected the humans in the White Tiger Domain, but also caused a lot of impact on the Xuanwu Domain.

Driven by this sense of fear, there was a trend of migration from the lower towns to the higher ones, and countless people dragged their families with them, hoping to flock to the higher-level towns and cities, or even the four major cities, in search of spiritual comfort.

However, the outer line of defense of the first-class town refused the request of the displaced people to enter the town limits.

A ring of forbidden roads was opened around the borders of sixteen first-class towns, blocking out all the townspeople of the lower towns, and only a few who qualified, such as those with high-level abilities, or traders from the slave bazaar, were able to pass through this line.

It's not that no one is trying to break through this boundary line, but as long as they don't have the qualifications to enter, once they set foot in the boundary, they will be killed on the spot without hesitation!

This cruel fact made some people abandon the decision to migrate and embark on the journey back, while others stopped on this border line, and set up improvised sheds in the woods and meadows, clinging to this dangerous border, as if it were the last support for their souls.

That feeling will be another huge circle of meat people centered on the two imperial capitals, four cities, and sixteen towns.

Outside the circle, a tense atmosphere permeates every molecule in the air, but inside the circle, it is a completely different scene.

At noon on the fifth day of the tenth month of the abandoned boat calendar, a golden light rose from the forbidden city of Houqing Palace in the center of the Qilin Imperial Capital, dispelling all the clouds in the sky, and then leaving behind eight shocking characters.

――On the first day of the lunar month, civil and military performances!

These eight words lasted in the sky for a long time, and they lasted for a week, radiating outward with the imperial capital as the center, including the two prefectures and four cities, as well as the human beings in the sixteen first-class towns and cities, they could clearly see these eight words.

So, a piece of news began to spread wildly within the empire.

In this special year, on the first day of the lunar month, the four Holy Spirit Wenwu Pagodas that took a hundred years to build in the four major cities of Qinglong, Xuanwu, Vermilion Bird, and White Tiger are about to open, recruiting geniuses above the minister level in the four major domains to enter for a one-year trial, and those who pass the trial can get the opportunity to become the four cities or the second mansion, or even the emperor's general!

Not only that, these four Holy Spirit Wenwu Pagodas are four special buildings jointly established by the left and right governments, and I heard that each of these levels, as long as you pass it, you can get a variety of rewards, including elixirs to improve cultivation, high-level exercises that are mysterious, and even more ...... The elixir of longevity!

This news directly detonated the emotions of everyone in the empire, and countless capable people flocked to it, and began to rush towards the first-level towns and cities in various places, after all, whether it was promotion or cultivation promotion, as well as the so-called elixir of life, all of them had a huge temptation for everyone!

And if you want to obtain the qualification to enter the Holy Spirit Wenwu Pagoda for training, the key lies in a list - Wan Ying Bang!

To be precise, the Wanying List is divided into sixteen parts, each first-level town and city has one copy, before the arrival of the lunar month, the person whose name is filled in this list has the qualification to enter the Wenwu Pagoda of each domain, and each Wanying list only has 10,000 places, once it is filled, it cannot be changed, it is because of the crowd in the sixteen first-level towns and cities, almost all of them are for the places on the Wanying list.

However, for Qin Zhen, whether it is the brute beast movement in the White Tiger Domain or the list of the Ten Thousand Heroes List, the degree of attention is not as good as another thing.

-- The position of the mayor of Qin Zhen changed hands again.

In mid-October, the Du family suddenly put forward a proposal to send another person to ban Du Qisheng's position as mayor, and the person who succeeded him was not other elders of the Du family, but Du Qisheng's younger brother, Du Qiyu.

Du Qiyu, forty-eight years old, can be described as a typical gentleman when he was young, when he was young, he was rampant and domineering in the former Qin Du Town, but because of the family background, no one dared to point fingers at him, until he was thirty-two years old, after the tragedy that led to the death of Du Tianwen's biological mother, he was beaten half to death by Du Lun, who was out of the customs, and since then he has been locked up in the Du family compound, and he is no longer allowed to go out half a step without major events.

It was about sixteen years of confinement-like life, and the uninterrupted supply of pills from the Du family's direct line, Du Qiyu's cultivation still reached the peak of the high rank of the minister, although he had no combat experience, he was still worthy of meeting the cultivation requirements of the first-level town mayor.

Then, under the impetus of Du Lun, such Du Qiyu became the new mayor of Qin Town.

One can imagine how confused and even angry Du Qisheng was when he learned that the family wanted to let him, a younger brother who could be called a tumor, take over him, but he soon understood the reason why Du Lun made this decision.

- She Qifei!

At the beginning, it was Du Tianli's confinement, as the sister-in-law of the Du family, he was under house arrest in the Du family, and he had no chance to go out, so he could only stay in the house every day to practice.

If it's just like this, it's nothing, because of the matter in Xinfan Town, this kind of imprisonment can actually be regarded as a certain degree of protection for Du Tianli.

But Du Qisheng soon found that the matter did not end there.

I don't know when it began, the elders of the family who originally belonged to his side began to have strange changes in their attitudes, and when he asked the reason, these elders skillfully played Tai Chi and avoided the focus of the topic.

It wasn't until Du Qiyu took over as mayor that Du Qisheng was furious to find that the elders who supported him at the beginning were all standing behind his younger brother who had never been in his eyes.

At the handover ceremony, She Qiwei's familiar black figure attracted almost all the hatred in his eyes, and only a small part was reserved for his pale younger brother and his nephew, Du Tianwen.

He hated She Qiwei, because he knew that the biggest reason why all this happened was because of this woman's hostility towards Du Tianli, a terrible hostility that had never disappeared since Xinfan Town.

When her proposal to remove Du Tianli from the qualifications to succeed the next head of the Du family was denied by Du Qisheng, this hostility finally began to push the beginning of all this at the beginning of October.

And after being in charge of the Du family for so many years, Du Qisheng naturally knows very well that Du Lun's actions are not to replace his brother with Du Qiyu, all these layouts are just for his seemingly non-threatening nephew.

As the so-called son inherits his father's business, as soon as Du Tianwen's cultivation arrives, he can directly replace Du Qiyu and become the next head of the Du family as the mayor of the town, while Du Qisheng and Du Tianli will be unknown with the rise of Du Tianwen.

In just half a month, he was unexpectedly pressed down by his pus-filled brother and his nephew who hid a knife in his smile, how could he not hate this kind of result!

But Du Tianwen's performance was also very surprising, less than a week after the mayor was transposed, there was a vision of vitality disorder in the Du family's Qingfeng Residence, and immediately after half an hour, a new minister-level ability was born as a matter of course.

His cultivation talent was indeed as amazing as Du Lun expected.

The new Du Mansion was actually rebuilt after the Du family purchased the former Qin family's mansion, and Du Tianli's Qingfeng Residence was located in the northeast of the entire mansion.

Standing in the pavilion in Qingfeng Ju, Qiao Ximing's eyes looked at the white sky in the northeast, and he didn't seem to feel the slightest chill in a single coat.

"Are you thinking about her again?" Du Tianwen walked from behind, his tone full of concern.

Qiao Ximing's eyes flickered slightly, and he retracted his gaze, staring at the pond fish playing in the courtyard pond, and avoided the question casually: "How is Uncle Gen?"

Looking at his appearance, Du Tianwen opened his mouth, stopped talking, then shook his head and sighed, and said: "Uncle Gen is no longer in trouble, after I conveyed your words to him, he cheered up again, although his arm still could not recover, his mood was no longer as low as before." ”

"Well, that's a good thing. ”

There was a brief silence.

"You know, right? That fangjin came to the door again yesterday and brought a thousand-pound brute beast over, saying that he wanted to thank you for saving his mother. Hey, this guy only knows food!"

"Oh?" Qiao Ximing looked at Du Tianwen: "Then what did you say?"

"Yesterday's meat dishes, don't you think they're very generous?"

“......”

Du Tianwen smiled slyly: "Actually, I didn't plan to accept him at first...... Well, gifts, but when I think about it, you do have a life-saving grace for him and his mother, why don't I accept it? After all, the meat of the fourth-level brute beast is really a delicacy in the world!"

"It wasn't me who saved his mother, it was the Du family's handy move in the distribution of the Qin family's resources, there is no need for him to thank me for this. ”

Syllable!

"Huh!" Du Tianwen patted Qiao Ximing on the back: "The meat has been eaten, do you still need to thank others, what's the use? By the way, Fang Jin is already a guest of the Du family." ”

"Keqing?"

Du Tianwen nodded: "Yes, when he came yesterday, he shouted to see you, saying that his mother let him obey your orders, I saw that you didn't have time, so I simply asked him to put his name in the Du family and fooled him for the time being." ”

Qiao Ximing shook his head helplessly.

"Then what's next?Wenwu Talent, Wan Yingbang's matter, how are you going to continue?......"

There was a pause in his tone.

“...... Over there in Vermilion Bird City, Xue'er, what are you going to do?"
