Chapter 784: Entrance Tax
Because he saw that his sister Lin Shuxian was tortured so that she didn't look like a human or a ghost, out of guilt and love in her heart, Lin Shaogen would agree to any request she made, and even if it was the stars and moon in the medicine sky, Lin Shaogen would take it off for her desperately.
Two days later, the veteran of the Ming Emperor invited the royal family of the Kunlun Empire and all forces to attend the ceremony of taking over the head of the academy, and even went to the five empires to invite the five super sects to watch the ceremony in order to have a good time. Because of the destruction of the eight major clans of the Kunlun Empire, except for a few disciples who were killed, most of the eight major clans joined the Eastern Regions Divine King Mansion, and now the disciples of the Eastern Regions Divine King Mansion have reached 100,000. ”
After helping Lin Shaogen to the lobby of the Binghe Ancient Clan, Jiang Zhanchen reported 1510 that Bai Xiaofeng was helped by the Zhong Yun sisters to his bedroom, and then asked several Binghe Ancient Clan family members and maids to take care of him. Although he killed 2,000 disciples and injured Bai Xiaofeng, it was only limited to the martial artists and his disciples, and Lin Shaogen did not harm Lin Shaogen alone.
"100,000 disciples." Hearing this, Lin Shaogeng's face suddenly flashed with a look of disbelief and astonishment, in the past, due to the Eastern Regions Divine King's Mansion not seeking more refinement, therefore, the seven main peaks plus the outer disciples were less than 10,000, I can't imagine that the number of disciples has directly increased tenfold to 100,000 now, and even if the eight major clans add up, there are not so many people?
"In addition to the 100,000 disciples, there are also many elders from the eight major clans who have joined the Eastern Regions God King, and there are as many as five or six hundred elders in the Elder Law Enforcement Hall and the Supreme Senator's Mansion, and all of them are cultivators from the second layer of the Divine Void Realm to the sixth layer of the Divine Void Realm. The current Eastern Regions Divine King's Mansion is in full swing, and it has surpassed the entire Kunlun Empire, and even the emperor of the Kunlun Empire has to grovel when he sees the Ming Emperor. ”
"And since he proclaimed himself the master of the Eastern Regions Divine King's Mansion, Emperor Ming has completely turned the masters and disciples of the Seven Main Peaks into his cronies, and even used cold and bloody means to eliminate dissidents. In the past, those elders and disciples who were loyal to the master of the courtyard were all killed, and I heard that in just one month, he brutally killed more than 1,000 disciples. ”
After taking a few sips of the teacup in front of him, Zhong Langhuan continued with Jiang Zhanchen's words, the current Eastern Regions God King Mansion no longer supports Lin Shaogeng, the former courtyard master.
"I didn't expect to kill more than 1,000 people a month, this Ming Emperor is simply a well-dressed beast with no humanity, and now he has killed so many people before he becomes the new master? If he really does, I don't know how many people died at his hands. After listening to what Jiang Zhanchen said to Zhong Xuan, Lin Shao couldn't help but find it difficult to suppress the anger in his heart and slammed the table.
"By the way, what is the current strength of the Ming Emperor." After a while, Lin Shao's anger gradually calmed down, and then he asked Jiang Zhanchen with a straight face, in addition to understanding the number of disciples and the strength of the elders, Lin Shao was more concerned about the cultivation of the Ming Emperor, after all, if the other party's strength was stronger, it meant that it would be more difficult for him to recapture the Eastern Regions Divine King Mansion.
"In order to reach the ninth layer of the Divine Void Realm, I heard that in the past few days, he is in retreat and is going all out to impact the demigod realm, in order to break through to become an immortal and become a god, he does not hesitate to devour and absorb the holy souls of hundreds of former courtyard masters in the Star Pavilion, if he reaches the demigod realm, it will be even more difficult to deal with." Regarding the question asked by the master of the courtyard, Lin Shaogeng, Zhong Yu explained in detail the strength of the Ming Emperor's respect for the elders.
"The Holy Soul contains the insights and experience of the martial arts of the masters of the Eastern Regions Divine King Mansion, and even the experience of impacting the demigod realm, if he only relies on his intelligence and understanding, it is impossible for him to break through the Divine Void Realm and become an immortal. After all, for thousands of years, none of the previous masters of the Eastern Regions God King Mansion had become an immortal or a god, but if he joined these, then it was really possible for him to break through and reach the demigod realm? ”
"I knew that this would be the case, you really shouldn't have refused Elder Gu's kindness to help you in the first place." After a shocking change in his face, Yan Sen couldn't help but say to Lin Shaogen with some complaints.
Zhong Yun's words made Lin Shaogen's heart change with a touch of unease, although he had defeated the Bat Demon King of the Nine-Step Demigod Realm, but that was when he reached the Demigod Realm with the help of the Time Crystal Stone House, and now it was only a cultivation of the first level of the Divine Void Realm.
"Even if Emperor Ming really reaches the demigod realm, I will go to the Eastern Regions Holy Mountain to regain the Eastern Regions Divine King's Mansion, as a dignified seven-foot man, I must personally get back what I lost, I believe that if the master is still here, he will approve of me doing this?"
Immediately, Lin Shao was even helped to the bedroom of the inner hall to recuperate, and with the help of various elixirs in the space secret vault of the Sword Ancestor's predecessor, he was able to fully recover his movements in just one day. As for the steel nails implanted in the joints of Lin Shuxian's hands and feet, since they can't be seen at all, it is more troublesome to take them out, and even Yan Sen, who can absorb objects in the air, has no way.
"Brother Yan Sen, isn't there really a way to take out the steel nails on my sister's body?" Turning his gaze to Lin Shuxian, who couldn't move on the bed, Lin Shaogen turned his head and asked Yan Sen with a gloomy expression.
"It's not that there is no way, that is, the steel nail inside is removed by osteotomy, but it is true that anesthetic cannot be used, because anesthetic can only reach the flesh and blood, not the bone. When the bone is opened, it will hurt worse than death, so someone must let her bite the palm of her hand or other parts of the body to relieve the pain, otherwise she will definitely come back to life and die of pain. ”
Just when Lin Shao was more willing to bite his sister to alleviate her pain, at this time, Li Muhan went to Lin Shuxian's boudoir with the support of two Binghe ancient clan members, and offered to let the former bite relieve her pain. and said that as long as there was someone who could save his sister, he would not hesitate to be bitten to death, and was moved by his true feelings, Lin Shaogen finally agreed to use him as a human anesthetic.
Yan Sen asked the people of the Binghe Ancient Clan to bring the tools for the osteotomy operation, and then let everyone except him, Lin Shuxian and Li Muhan go out, even Lin Shaogen's own brother could not be present during the operation, and then asked Li Muhan to put his arm into Lin Shuxian's mouth, and then, Yan Sen took out a scalpel from the toolbox.
As the flesh and blood were cut open with a knife, the blood inside suddenly gushed out like a spring, and soon, Lin Shuxian's upper body and Yan Shen's arms were full of blood. Immediately, Lin Shuxian, who bit Li Muhan's palm, shouted out directly, and then Li Muhan's palm was bitten, and blood gushed down his arm to the ground.
Although he was bitten in severe pain, Li Muhan really couldn't hold back and didn't shout at all, even Yan Sen next to him saw it, and his face couldn't help but pass a deeply touched look of emotion, and soon, he slowly cut through Lin Shuxian's left leg joint with a bone-opening scalpel.
As the bones at the joints were cut, Lin Shuxian, who was lying down, couldn't bear the pain and danced with her hands, seeing this, Yan Sen immediately asked Li Muhan to hold it down with the other one. Because Lin Shuxian had to bite the palm of his hand, he also had to hold it down with his hand, so soon Li Muhan, who was busy on both sides, was so tired that he was sweating profusely, and the sweat and blood that flowed down were intertwined, making the air exude a thick smell of blood.
Half a time later, only a "click" sound was heard, and the bones of Li Muhan's left hand were all shattered in an instant, but he still didn't shout a sound, and when the pain was too unbearable, he inserted the steel nails that fell to the ground into his body to cure the pain, and in a blink of an eye, Li Muhan's body was filled with more than a dozen steel nails.
The operation lasted for two hours before it ended, and after removing the steel nails at the joints of the hands and feet, Yan Sen applied black jade muscle and bone ointment to Lin Shuxian, a special elixir for healing broken bones and broken bones. Although the steel nail was removed, because the wound had not yet healed the bone, Lin Shuxian, who was lying on the bed, was still unable to move, and the wound would take at least a month to heal.
"Uncle God, no, Senior Brother Li, why are you so stupid? I have refused to confess several times, and even asked my master to be a witness to recognize you as an uncle in order to make you die, I used to treat you like this, I can't imagine that not only do you not blame me at all, but now you are also a human anesthetic to relieve the pain of my surgery. ”
Seeing Li Muhan's bloody left palm and broken fingers that could not stand upright, in order to alleviate the pain of his broken fingers, he even inserted the steel nails taken out into his body, Lin Shuxian's delicate face suddenly flashed a touch of deep guilt with a little touch.
"Senior sister, are you okay? I'm very forgetful, I've forgotten all about the past, as long as I can make you better, I'm willing to do anything? In the face of Lin Shuxian's somewhat moved guilt, Li Muhan, who had steel nails inserted in his body, half-jokingly said indifferently, he couldn't see a little sadness and sadness on his face, but there was a kind of happiness that he was worth giving everything for his beloved.
Hearing this, Lin Shuxian was moved with tears in her eyes and couldn't say a word, and immediately, she turned her face to the other side, Senior Brother Li Muhan sacrificed too much for herself, and she repeatedly disliked his old rejection of him.
After eating at noon, Lin Shaogen and everyone from the Eastern Regions Temple Mansion rushed to the Eastern Regions Holy Mountain, tomorrow is the succession ceremony of the new courtyard master, Emperor Ming, and Huang Yachen, Luo Jingwen and Lin Miaoyin, as well as Jiang Mengqi, Ouyang Yutong, Shen Danchen, Mu Suyan and the disciples of Wanhua Palace will temporarily stay in the Binghe Ancient Clan.
It took an hour to arrive outside the Meridian City by taking the Dapeng Golden Carving, and then, Lin Shaogen and his party walked to the gate of the city, but they did find that the people who entered the city and the cultivators were queuing up to enter the city one by one to pay the city tax.
"This big brother, didn't you go to Meridian City in the past and didn't need money? Why do you have to pay the entrance tax now? Lin Shaogeng, who came to the city gate, asked a middle-aged man in a black house beside him.
"It's not the new head of the Eastern Regions God King Mansion who is making trouble, since he became the head of the court, not only has he been required to pay the city tax, but when he takes over tomorrow, what succession tax will he have to pay? If you don't pay it, tomorrow you will be a corpse and hang on the wall of the tower. In a word, now the people of Meridian City have to eat and not eat in order to pay all kinds of miscellaneous taxes. ”
