In the extreme north of the Great Wilderness, there is a mountain named Xuanqiu, and under the Xuanqiu Mountain, there is a country called the Great Secluded Country. There are five huge families in the Great Shadow Empire, they have existed since the existence of the Great Shadow Empire, and after ten thousand years, they have never changed.

They are the Dayou Song family, the Di family, the Xue family, the Jiang family, and the Liang family. And above them is the supreme ruler of the Great You Empire, Emperor Xuan on Xuanqiu Mountain.

Legend has it that the first few ancestors of the Great You Empire were disciples of Emperor Xuan, which is why they were able to rule the Great You for so long.

There is a huge city in the Great Shadow Empire, called Cloud City, which is inhabited by almost hundreds of millions of people, and is the center of the entire empire.

At this time, a man dressed in black came from outside Youyun City, with a short stick stuck diagonally behind his back, and walked quietly towards Youyun City.

This man is none other than Di Yun, who has returned from the East China Sea. Although the Great You Empire is huge, with his footsteps, he has already rushed from the coast of the East China Sea to the Youyun City in the north of the Great You in just a few days.

The closer he got here, the more excited Di Yun's heart became, this was his home, his grandfather, uncle, aunt, and many cousins. These were all told to him by his mother, and he knew since he was a child that the Di family was an extremely large existence in the Great Shadow Empire. But after a few days of in-depth understanding of the Great You, the shock in my heart is still unimaginable.

It can be said that although the Great You Empire is extremely large, there are five major families in almost every corner. As long as you live in the Great Shadow Empire, then you will have to deal with these five families.

Di Yun naturally didn't care about these things, all he cared about was his own home here. Although he has a lot of homes, Yukun Mountain, Cangwuyuan, Wutong Mountain, etc., are all places where he used to be his home.

But deep down in his heart, the real home, is only here. His father and mother met and fell in love here. Although they are no longer there, the kind of blood and kinship is endless.

Thinking of this, Di Yun walked quickly towards the city. As soon as he reached the gate of the city, several men in strong suits blocked Di Yun's way.

Di Yun frowned, and then heard one of the men say, "Boy, where are you from, do you have an identity document?"

After a few days of understanding, Di Yun already understood that this identity document was a way for the ruler of the Great Darkness to control the territory below. It can be said that if there is no identity document, it is almost impossible to move an inch in this great seclusion.

In the past, Di Yun flew directly over, but in front of this Cloud City, he chose to walk in with respect for the Di family.

At that time, I had just arrived at the city gate, and I encountered this embarrassing situation.

Di Yun thought for a while and said in a low voice: "I am a member of the Di family, and I haven't been back since I was a child, so I don't have an identity document for the time being. I hope a few guys will be accommodating. ”

The faces of several people changed, and they looked at Di Yun carefully, and one of them immediately laughed and said: "What? You are from the Di family......?

Di Yun didn't move in his heart, just smiled and said: "I'm really from the Di family, how about I wait until I get home, finish the disc, and show it to you?"

The man sneered: "Joke, let you in, where are we going to find you." However, if you want to go in, you can't go in, you have to leave the door tax. ”

Di Yun frowned and said suspiciously, "Door tax?"

The man nodded and said, "That's right, the gate tax is the tax for entering the city gate." Otherwise, would this door have entered for nothing?"

Di Yun realized that these people were asking for bribes, and his heart suddenly became angry. I didn't expect that there would be such a thing in this big secluded **.

In his heart, the place where his family stays must be the most beautiful and peaceful place in the world. But I didn't expect to encounter such a thing just after it arrived.

But with Di Yun's identity and cultivation, he naturally wouldn't bother with these people. I had to take out a pearl from the East China Sea that the Phoenix King gave me before leaving, and asked, "How many of you look, is this thing okay?"

The man saw that the dragon's eye pearl in Di Yun's hand was crystal clear, and at first glance it was the top grade flowing from the East China Sea, and he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Okay, okay." You can go in. ”

Diyun tossed the pearl to him, and then stepped inside.

This is, one of those people said: "Commander Wu, this person casually took out such a precious pearl, and he thought that he would be worth a lot of money. Besides, he doesn't have an identity document, so it's better to ......"

The commander surnamed Wu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Although this person looks ordinary, if he dares to take out this thing casually, he must not be afraid of others seeing it." Forget it, let's just get the benefits, let's go, I'll invite everyone to go to the Spring Building in the evening to get drunk and rest. ”

A crowd of people applauded and applauded.

Di Yun naturally listened to their conversation, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly in his heart. I thought that the place where my family was located would be better, but I didn't expect such a dirty thing to happen. It seems that although the world is big, it is not easy to find a piece of pure land.

He thought as he walked towards the city. This Cloud City occupies a huge area, and at a glance it is almost boundless. In the middle of the city, there were five tall buildings standing majestically, looking solemn, and Di Yun said in his heart that it should be where the five major families are. It's just that I don't know which one belongs to the Di family.

Thinking of this, he saw a restaurant next to him and walked in.

As soon as he entered, he saw a shopkeeper coming up, looked at Di Yun, and respectfully welcomed him inside.

Di Yun saw that the business of this restaurant was not bad, and it was full. let Xiao Er take him to the second floor.

This second floor is a private room, which is expensive, and there are many fewer natural people. Di Yun walked to a position by the window and sat down, and asked, "Little Er, I want to ask, how did this Di family go?"

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Son, you are going to apply for the guest secretary of the Di family." Then you really have found the right place, you only need to spend another five taels of silver, you can buy the store's secret Dayou Treasure Book, this treasure book has a detailed introduction to the five major families of Dayou, you ......"

When Di Yun heard this, he was surprised: "There is still such a thing?"

The shopkeeper said proudly: "You must know that these five major families have to recruit a large number of guests every year. But the people who come often don't know them very well and don't know which family is suitable for them, so they need to inquire. But people are terrible, and maybe they are wrong. But there is only one treasure book in our store, and there is no other branch. You don't have to worry about the truth or falsehood, there is absolutely no lie. ”

Di Yun looked at his smug expression and asked with a smile, "Then if you leak their secrets like this, aren't you afraid that they will make trouble for you?"

The shopkeeper's smug look was even stronger, and he said: "Look at what you said, if we don't have a little background, do we dare to do this? The owner of our restaurant is the third son of the Song family." So rest assured. ”

Di Yun suddenly realized that this restaurant was opened by a child of the family. But think about it, it's not surprising that there are shadows of the five major families in any corner of this big seclusion.

So he nodded and said, "Then please give me a copy." Then serve some snacks. "With Di Yun's current cultivation, he is naturally not greedy for food and drink, but sitting in the restaurant, he doesn't order anything, which is a bit special, so he needs it.

The shopkeeper laughed, took out a booklet from his arms, handed it to Di Yun, and then went down to help him prepare the meal. Jukou didn't mention the matter of money, thinking that with their background, no one dared to repay the debts here, and the people who could repay the debts, with their identity, would not care about such a small amount of money, so he was so relieved.

After Di Yun waited for him to go down, he opened the booklet in his hand and read it carefully.

It turns out that among the five major families of Dayou, there is a special system, which is the guest system. These guests are all people with special skills recruited by the five major families, and they are not necessarily high-level cultivators. As long as you are good at something, you may be their guest.

And this guest secretary has an assessment, once a year, and those who fail to meet the requirements will be dismissed, and then re-recruited, which is also very strict.

Above the guest qing, there are the personal guards of the five major families. These guards are composed of monks, and they are the most basic strength of the five families. At the time of recruitment, a comprehensive investigation will be conducted, and after the inspection is passed, it is a lifelong system. Even if you are injured or disabled after working for a while, the Lord will support you until you die.

And above the pro-guards, there are the Xuanyi guards. Each of these Xuanyi guards will not exceed a thousand, and they are the backbone of each family. If you want to enter the Xuanyi Guard, you have to be at least the cultivation of Wuzun. And there are requirements for origin, age, etc. Once these Xuanyi guards are selected, then they will be cultivated by the major families with great efforts, and they will be regarded as their own children.

Seeing this, Di Yun already had a general understanding of the strict hierarchy of the five major families. At this time, his mind moved, the last time Emperor Xuan was talking to Emperor Ming, he mentioned what Qingxuan Guard, and he didn't know what kind of guard it was, probably Emperor Xuan's own guard.

Just as Di Yun was looking at the booklet, a few people came from downstairs. These people were gorgeously dressed, and each of them was accompanied by a woman with a beautiful face. At first glance, you can tell that it is the son of a family who came out to play. As soon as they went upstairs, they sat down by another window, far away from Di Yun.

When Di Yun saw them coming up, he frowned, did not speak, and continued to look through the booklet in his hand.

Although those boys are in this restaurant, they are full of foul language, as if they regard this restaurant as their home. When the people who went upstairs to eat saw these people, they immediately turned around and left, and even the people who had just eaten upstairs also checked out and left. Suddenly, apart from them upstairs, only Di Yun was left.

At this moment, a person ran up from downstairs and ran directly to those boys. Seeing this person, Di Yun frowned slightly...... (To be continued.) )
