Chapter 154 Losing Both?
/ The inn where Guo Jia settled is in the alley seven streets away, separated by seventeen or eighteen miles, which is relatively close.
But it was seventeen or eighteen miles away, which made him sigh for a while.
Although Guo Jia is a qi cultivation method, due to his own exercises and his eagerness to achieve success in his early years, he can only cultivate his nature but not his life. Although the Dao method is unfathomable, it is even worse than ordinary people in terms of physical body. Not to mention the martial arts, he has not been able to practice internal breath so far. At this time, I walked back, but I was afraid that I would be tired into a dog.
In other places, he could cross three or five miles with a single spell, which was simple and convenient. But what kind of location is Xianyang City? It also coincided with the recent riots in the capital and the whole city locked up the murderers. If you use magic rashly, you will only bring disaster to yourself.
So when he first entered Xianyang, Guo Jia didn't think about choosing a place closer to Anguo Mansion to settle down. But after all, this is the north of the city, where the noble families live, and every inch of land is valuable. Even if it is a small inn in the middle of nowhere, the price is not something that ordinary scholars can afford.
Guo Jia was born in the Shu family, and his family also has hundreds of acres of land, but just by burdening him to study at Songshan Academy, he was already overwhelmed. And practicing qi is a bottomless pit for swallowing money.
Although since he entered the Guigu Gate, all the needs he needs when he practiced were borne by the Guigu Academy. However, when he left the mountain, all this supply was cut off, and he had to bear everything himself.
So at the moment he was really shy in his pocket, and he didn't even have the money to hire a carriage, so he could only walk.
But when Guo Jia returned to the inn where he was staying, he was slightly stunned. At the entrance of the store, there was a young man he knew very well, looking at him with burning eyes.
"Wang Meng?"
Guo Jia blinked, a little incredulous: "Why are you here?"
This guy. Shouldn't it be to go to the Jixia School Palace in Daqi and ask those Yin-Yang Scholars for advice? Why are you here?
Probably because of his weak heart, he felt stared at by this guy. It was as if he was being targeted by a fierce tiger, which made him creepy.
"Hey, hey, why am I here?"
Wang Meng sneered. A faint black aura appeared all over his body, as if he was crazy: "Senior brother, why do you say I'm here?"
Guo Jia had already figured it out, and his face turned bitter: "You came with me?"
was too careless, I didn't expect this guy to follow him to Qin Jing. Then again, when did this little guy's ability to find and disappear become so powerful?
"Thanks to Senior Brother, Senior Brother, I owe the Master a full 600,000 taels of gold!"
Wang Meng lowered his head slightly. The resentment was so great that the ground under his feet cracked inch by inch: "It's not six taels, it's not sixty taels, but a full 600,000 taels! Senior brother, how can you let me pay it back?
Without money, how should he ask the guys in the Jixia School Palace who are open-eyed to money?
"What's the trouble with this?"
Guo Jia raised his hands and resolutely begged for mercy: "Senior brother has something to say, can you not do it?"
"Don't do it? Senior brother, did you say it?"
Wang Meng didn't mean to stop, his momentum was even stronger, and he walked step by step: "Senior brother, do you know how I came to Xianyang? Senior brother, senior brother, even if I pour out the water of the three rivers and five lakes, it will be difficult to quench my monstrous hatred for you! If you don't beat you up first, you will be beaten up severely. Shall I be willing?"
Guo Jia still shook his head and sincerely persuaded: "Senior brother, listen to me! If you hate me, you can change the time and place to do it to me before it is too late." But now is not the right timeβ"
Where would Wang Meng listen? The bones all over his body made a burst of soybean-like sounds. But just as he was about to smash a punch into Guo Jia's face, he heard a 'boom' of footsteps outside. There is even a strong aura, flying towards this side. In an instant, it was less than two hundred zhang away, and at the same time, a thunderous shout came: "At the feet of the Son of Heaven, at the time of curfew, who dares to make trouble here?"
Wang Meng was a little stunned when he heard this, and then glanced at Guo Jia opposite him with a blank look: "What's going on?"
He didn't use the Dao method just now. I didn't use much internal interest, how could I alarm a large number of forbidden troops? There was even a small celestial position.
How is this Xianyang City controlled. is more severe than Zhao Jing Handan, who is stubborn and chivalrous?
"Senior brother, you just entered Xianyang?"
Guo Jia sighed, still raising his hand: "Twenty days ago, Shaoqing of Dali Temple in Qin State was assassinated. The murderer has not been caught until now, so why do you have to hit this knife, junior brother?"
Just as the two were talking, a whole battalion of forbidden troops had already arrived. A total of thirty ink armors and more than three hundred elite armor soldiers surrounded the two of them. Nearly a hundred bows and crossbows pointed at the two of them from afar.
At this time, the heavenly powerhouse also arrived at the same time. Around thirty years, the figure is tall and big, a body of divine armor covers half of the body, the face is like red dates, and the eyes are like copper bells. After arriving, he stood in mid-air, glancing at the two of them, and his expression was not angry and arrogant.
"Who are you two from? Don't you know that the curfew is imminent? How dare you make trouble here and fight in the streets?"
As soon as Guo Jia was about to explain, Wang Meng preemptively said: "General Mingjian, this person is my fellow villager, just because he owes me money-"
Guo Jia knew something was wrong when he heard it, and then he saw that the general of the forbidden army raised his eyebrows slightly, and directly waved his hand and said: "Your accent, you are from Zhao State?
In an instant, countless rope nets covered the sky and the sun. Wang Meng's heart is not good, but he knows that at this moment, it is better not to resist. I could only watch a few soldiers come over, punch a few Zhenyuan nails into the collarbone, and knock him out directly.
Guo Jia was also covered by several rope nets, and he couldn't get out, so he could only smile bitterly: "General, I am a good citizen below, and I didn't start today's incident, can you give me some face-"
However, before the words fell, there were also several Zhenyuan nails behind him, which were mercilessly nailed in. Wang Meng couldn't bear this thing, let alone him? When the first Zhenyuan nail was inserted into his body, Guo Jiaren had already lost consciousness.

Also when the moonlight was approaching, in Anguo Mansion, Ying Chong was in the God Refining Pot, looking at the stone tablet in front of him with a strange expression.
After more than a month, on this stone stele. New handwriting appeared.
"On January 27, the twenty-eighth year of the Heavenly Sage, Daji, married Ling Xue. β
"March 21, the twenty-eighth year of the Heavenly Sage. Guo Jia, a native of Zhao, entered Xianyang. β
"On March 25, the twenty-eighth year of the Heavenly Sage, 650,000 horsemen from the seven left wings of the Xiongnu marched south. The army was killed in the clouds. β
"On March 27, the 28th year of Tiansheng, the Yangjiang River flooded and spread to four prefectures, causing displaced people to rise in all directions. There were 200,000 thieves who invaded Wuyang, even broke Zhuang County, Changxing, and Mengzhou counties, and then immediately disarmed the county. Siege of March. After the bandits, nearly half of the Anguo army was killed or wounded, and only 40% of the 37,000 households in the fief remained. β
"On May 13, the 28th year of Tiansheng, he was ordered to go out of Beijing, with the rank of general of Sanpin Zhongwu, and served as the guard of Wuyang Town, and the chief general of the left side of the Wanzhou Rebellion Army. Unified the soldiers of the two towns and suppressed the civil unrest in Wanzhou. β
"On June 24, the twenty-eighth year of the Heavenly Sage, Guo Jia's plan was used to store water to destroy the enemy. The big thieves flooded 47,000 hectares of fields in the lower reaches of Wuyang counties. Later, with an army of 10,000 people, the displaced people were driven through Wuyang. He took 1,200,000 stone of grain and 300,000 gold from the county's reserves, and forcibly requisitioned 960,000 stone of miscellaneous grain from the localities to appease the displaced people and prepare the army for war-"
Ying Chong's expression was solemn, and he looked coldly at the newly appeared fourth. He finally knew now why King Na'an couldn't complete next year's 'True Inheritance Task Seven'.
The harvest on the side of Tiger Fort is only afraid that it will not be enough to make up for the shortfall, where is it possible to complete this money-making task?
I thought to myself, is this Ying Yuandu's way to fight back against him? It can really be said to hit the point. Thunder!
This Zhuang County, which fell into the hands of bandits, is Changxing. The three counties of Mengzhou are his fundamental and important places.
His feudal state is good for Xie County. But just one county can't accommodate 37,000 households. Therefore, there are still many landed households in the country, scattered in Zhuang County and Changxing County.
As for Mengzhou County, it is also very important, this is Wuyang County, the area is only inferior to Wuyang County, the large county, a total of 27,000 hectares of good heaven, one county income can reach the border city and one county. And the 5,000 hectares of land that the Heavenly Holy Emperor rewarded his father with a few years ago were all in this Zhuang County. Together with the grange that my mother later purchased for the Guogong Mansion, there are a total of 9,000 hectares of land. Therefore, the damage to any one of these three counties can cause him a great loss of vitality.
And this homeless thief army also came strangely, there was no crime in Qiu in other places, only his Zhuang County, Changxing, and Mengzhou counties were broken, and the remaining one Xie County was besieged for three months. How could there be such a coincidence, if it wasn't done on purpose?
When he saw the sixth, Ying Chong couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips slightly. This disposition is really like his temperament, your Wuyang Ying clan doesn't let me have a good time, so you don't want to have a peaceful birthday!
As for how many people in Wuyang will be miserable and how many people will die from the flood, he doesn't care at all.
Since Ying Yuandu came out by such means, then the counties north of Wuyang were naturally regarded by him as enemy countries! Otherwise, how could his dead tenants and tenants be innocent? How could they be blinded by the lives of those rogues?
As for the grain and grass that was 'forcibly requisitioned' from the locality, it was not surprising that he must have taken it from the various families and clans in Wuyang County. He is really black-hearted, and this is clearly to rip flesh and salt from the wounds of those clans.
However, in this way, he and Wuyang Ying's family are both defeated. The wounds of both families will take **** many years to recover, which is really unpleasant.
By the way, who is this Guo Jia?
On this stele, it is mentioned twice in a row. And he also deliberately pointed out the time when this person came to Xianyang City.
Ying Chong felt that this name was a little familiar, and then he was slightly stunned, remembering the greeting post he saw this afternoon.
"Yue'er, this Guo Jia, isn't it very important to me?"
"Mr. Guo?"
Ying Yue'er was also in the God Refining Pot today, continuing to debug her new body, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but look up at the stone tablet: "It's indispensable!" That was the first strategist around his father in his early years, he was extremely intelligent, and he was regarded as the humerus by his father. It's a pity that Mr. Guo died early, otherwise there would never have been a palace change in Yuanyou's three years. However, the time is still early, it will take three months for him to enter Beijing, and he is probably still in Zhao now. β
Ying Chong thought to himself that there was no need to wait for three months, this guy might have already entered Beijing. It's a pity that I can't see it today, so I can only wait for this one to visit tomorrow.
I don't know if this Guo Jia is another Guo Jia - (to be continued.) )"";"
