Chapter Sixty-Eight: When the Peak Turns Around, the Blood of the Festival Hall Becomes a River

It was a young man.

Tsing Yi and Bai Qiu, with a white face and a smile on the corner of his mouth, the two young men in Tsing Yi next to him stood with their heads bowed, like the shopkeeper who came to collect debts.

Wang Xuan's eyes moved slightly, "Who is Your Excellency?" ”

The young man in Tsing Yi smiled and arched his hand: "Mo family, Mo Huaixian." ”

The Mo family?

Wang Xuan frowned slightly, and the Bingzhou family was headed by the Xiao family, with a total of nine families, but he had never heard of the Mo family.

Mo Huaixian smiled indifferently, "Brother Wang, it's better to sit down and talk about it." ”

Wang Xuan nodded, "It's a faux pas, Zhang Heng, make tea." ”

"Yes, sir."

Zhang Heng picked up the teapot with a happy face, to be honest, Wang Xuan had made a plan just now to go to Dayan Nanjin San to set up a flag and build a cottage, but he really didn't want to be a mountain bandit unless he had to.

At this time, Guo Luquan, who had been silent, suddenly had a slight condensation in his eyes, "Mo family, is Your Excellency from the Divine Capital?" ”

Shendu...

Wang Xuan frowned slightly, is he a member of the royal family?

Mo Huai saw Wang Xuan's expression, and said with an indifferent smile: "Captain Wang doesn't need to worry too much, the Mo family is just a small family, because Uncle Xia is from Shanhai Academy and works in the Ministry of Household Affairs in the middle of the court, so he is fortunate to get a place." ”

"Yong'an County is located in the middle of nowhere, north of Qinzhou, trapped in the mountains, my Mo family has no ambitions, just to protect themselves in this world of great contention, others don't look down on it, but it is just right for the family to stand up."

As he spoke, he took out a silk scroll from his arms, "Captain Wang has the talent to govern the army, and the Mo family has a weak foundation when he first arrived in the state, so he just relies on each other." ”

Wang Xuan picked it up and took a look, only to see that there were many terms listed on it, such as the Mo family would move to Yong'an in the future, send the disciples of the clan to join the army for training, and invest resources to strengthen the army......

Wang Xuan's brows gradually furrowed.

It's not that this treaty is harsh, it's too good.

As far as he knew, some local lieutenants were sheltered under the Falin family, and they were almost completely reduced to vassals, and this treaty was more like a cooperation between the two families.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, and if a person is abnormal, there must be a knife.

Wang Xuan was vigilant in his heart, "Why? ”

"Brother Wang is really cautious......"

Mo Huaixian hesitated, his lips moved slightly, others couldn't hear the words, but a voice came into Wang Xuan's ears: "Brother Wang, do you remember that in the wilderness, the Four Seas Inn was attacked by blood-clothed thieves?" ”

"The shopkeeper, surnamed Mo ......"

…………

On the tenth day of the first month, the wind was cold.

On this day, there is also a special scene, the people either put bread at the root of the wall, or sprinkle peanuts in the shade, all of which are sacrificial to mice, congratulate "rats marry", and even light candles next to the water tank to light the way, and knock on the lid of the pot to urge makeup.

Why do you have to sacrifice because rats are harmful?

Because they cannot be destroyed, they can only coexist.

In the bustle, there is a hint of helplessness...

At this time, the atmosphere of the Yamen of the Evil Suppression Army Mansion was solemn.

The state is mountainous, the fish and rice are not abundant, except for the Kangyuan Mansion City to occupy the vast plain, the remaining thirty-six counties are spread across the mountains of the whole state, and the tax burden is almost at the end of the Great Yan Dynasty.

In the past, the captains from all over the country laughed and laughed, talked with each other to deal with it, and then they formed groups of three or five, or went to the wine store to get drunk, or dreamed of spring in the Qinglou for one night.

And now, everyone bows their heads solemnly, and the atmosphere in the festival hall is solemn.

Wang Xuan stood at the end of the team and glanced faintly, only to see that the old festival hall in the past had obviously been renovated, and what made him even more shocked was that there were four more things next to the throne above the festival hall.

The demon tail is hung on both sides, supplemented by the tail feathers of the spirit bird, each with the words "suppressing evil" and "cutting the Kou", and the evil spirit hovers on the bronze flagpole, majestic and solemn.

Two huge green bamboos hung strings of copper talismans, and the blood-colored aura flowed, as if there was an invisible blade suspended above the festival hall, and the soul could be beheaded and destroyed with a single order.

These are all weapons in the army, the flag is called Jing, and the bronze charm is called the festival.

Double festival and double festival, with a special reward, and a special kill, this is the prestige of the first military government, I can't imagine that there is this thing now, it is estimated that the prince brought it from the gods.

Suddenly, two axe-wielding wrestlers at the door raised their heads and shouted:

"And the king of the state has arrived!"

"And the state stabbed history!"

"The record of the army joining the evil mansion has arrived!"

"The army of the Evil Suppression Mansion has arrived with the commander of the army!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

With a solemn chant, several people strode into the festival hall, and all the captains all held their fists and saluted, looking at a few people ascending the hall with anxiety.

Wang Xuan fixed his eyes and saw that the assassin Shi, the army and others were standing on the side, while the prince sat down slowly with an expressionless face.

Yesterday, Zhao Duwei had told him that this prince's name was Dugu Sheng, who had served in the Central Xiao Cavalry Army, and later recuperated in Shendu.

The original assassin Liu Changgeng was a disciple of the academy and was friendly with the family, but this time the prince arrived and immediately handed over all the power, obviously knowing a lot of insiders.

Wang Xuan glanced at it and closed his eyes and bowed his head, whether it was the prince or the assassin Shi, they were both masters of refining and refining Qi, and the royal family and the academy had extraordinary inheritances, which were obviously more than just as simple as they seemed on the surface.

Dugu Sheng, the king of Bingzhou, was tall, with a dignified face, and a white beard neatly with a sense of majesty, and after sitting down, he didn't look at the people below, but shook his black python robe, and nodded at Liu Changgeng, the assassin and said, "Let's start!" ”

"Yes, lord."

Liu Changgeng arched his hand slightly, then looked to the side, and immediately stepped forward with a cold face, unfolded the silk in his hand with a snap, and said in a deep voice:

"Xuanyi County Captain Zhou Feng, privately opened a mine, corruption is a disaster, beheaded!"

"Li Guocheng, the captain of Ningfeng County, colluded with the mountain bandits, and beheaded one party!"

"Tongyuan County Captain Si Liming, colluded with demons, mutilated the people, beheaded!"

"Huaihua County Lieutenant ......"

With a loud shout, many people's faces suddenly changed greatly.

"Lord Wang, I was wronged!"

"I'm not convinced, that's the Wu family's business name!"

"I have taken refuge in the Taiyin Gate......"

However, all they faced was a pair of indifferent eyes.

Wang Xuan sighed secretly in his heart, he remembered Mo Huaixian's words last night, the tripartite communication may not be determined until the last moment, some legal lineages to be beaten, some families to be weakened, and some captains to be replaced, how can there be no people who sacrifice flags in the military government reform, and today's festival hall will inevitably be full of blood.

Sure enough, among the thirty-six captains, at least thirteen were sentenced to be executed, and a group of murderous thugs rushed into the festival hall and were about to press people to leave.

These people are as strong as bears, and their eyes are full of fierce murderous intent, obviously the elite brought by the Dugusheng prince from the Central Army.

"your grandpa!"

"Mom, it's the other way around!"

The lieutenants were willing to be restrained, and they all suddenly broke out.

The prince in the hall took out the Tiger Talisman of the Evil Suppression Army from his arms with a cold look in his eyes, and snorted coldly, "Disrupt the festival hall, behead!" ”

Jingle bell...

As soon as the words fell, a series of bronze runes on the runes began to sway from side to side, the cold wind howled, the murderous aura soared to the sky, and invisible sword light fell from above the festival hall.

Puff puff...

Without any ability to fight back, the captains who tried to resist were beheaded, and some even flew up on all fours, and for a time there was a river of blood in the hall.

Those thugs clenched their fists and left, the smell of blood in the festival hall was fragrant, and the silence was terrifying.

Wang Xuan's face was indifferent, and his clenched fist slowly loosened.

Ahead, Sanyin Lieutenant Meng Xiong's legs trembled, and his crotch was wet...

Liu Changgeng, the assassin of the assassination, didn't seem to see the tragic situation below, and spread out a silk book and read aloud: "The sealing mystic technique was stolen, there was a barbarian invasion in the north, the Jin Dynasty peeped in the south, there were evil demons and people in the trouble, and the Yan Emperor was touched by the decline of humanity, so that the military government in various places was restructured, and the revitalization of the party was ...... with the order of opening up wasteland."

There are a lot of ramblings, but there are only two core points.

The restrictions of the royal family were relaxed, and the military governments in various places became independent from then on, and entered the surrounding barren mountains and rivers to open up the land, and half of the property obtained was returned to the national treasury, and half was used for the development of the government army...

The military government has the duty to suppress one party, if there is a demon disaster, causing the displacement of the people, the commander of the army is a capital crime, the military commander of each province is appointed by the royal family, if the property is embezzled, it is a major crime of rebellion...

Wang Xuan knew that this was just a clichΓ© on the surface, and in the secret the forces of all parties had already set the division of interests, and they were just banners on the surface.

Perhaps, also a scapegoat.

After a reading, two things were issued: the tiger talisman and the wasteland opening order.

In the end, Dugu Sheng, the king of Bingzhou, who had been silent, finally raised his eyelids slightly, and said indifferently: "Everyone, there are some things that need not be said, but there are some things that the king must say, the reform of the evil government army will inevitably lead to the land in the future, how to go on the road, you will do it yourself in the future!" ”

A big chaos, the military government's debriefing is over.

After going out, I found that the sky was drifting with fine snow at some point, the clouds were low, and all the captains looked at each other, as if they were in a different world.

Wang Xuan looked at the tiger talisman and the wasteland opening order in his hand, and then clenched it fiercely.

It feels so bad today that he doesn't want to leave his fate in the hands of anyone again......
