Early in the morning, Wu Gen looked at the huge port in the distance in a daze, the ship had sailed to Hu Buyuguo, about to dock, and then it was to turn to the land, go to another place, find the next connector, and then sail to Kuntianzhou.

"We're leaving, brother." A sweet voice came from behind him, but Wu Gan's body tightened.

Turning his head, he saw that Yu Jiu and Yu Ten were standing behind him, looking at him with a smile.

The two of them looked smiling, but their eyes were still lifeless, looking at people like looking at a stone. The two emotions appear on the same face at the same time, not only does not have the slightest feeling of cuteness, but makes people a little creepy.

"There's still some distance offshore, and you can get off the ship after a little while." Wu Gen also put on a smiling face, facing these two guys who are ruthless and will run away at any time, no matter how cautious they are.

"No, we'll go now." Yu Jiu leaned closer, stood on tiptoe and tilted his head, and said, "Brother, don't forget to go to Tianyamen, Yu Jiu is waiting for your grilled fish." If he didn't go, Yu Jiu would be angry. ”

Wu Gen smiled slightly, "If there is a chance, I will definitely go." ”

"Retractor." Yu Jiu stretched out his right hand, "Yu Jiu hates people who don't talk the most, if my brother forgets, don't come to the sea again, I'm afraid I can't help but kill my brother." ”

Looking at this little girl with a well-behaved face but with the words of a tiger and a wolf, Wu Gan's heart sank, he would definitely have to go to Kuntianzhou by sea, and he couldn't really meet these two little devils. Stretching out his right hand, "Okay, pull the hook, but I don't know how to find the end of the world." ”

"In the rising sea, as long as you encounter pirates, most of them know Tianyamen, but my brother can go to Pearl Island to find us." Yu Jiu chuckled and handed over a domino with only a swirling pattern on it. "With this thing, someone will bring my brother to the island."

Wu Gen took the jade card, and was just about to ask for details again, when Domain Nine and Domain Ten jumped, and they had already fallen into the sea. Wu Gen hurriedly looked over, and a small boat came down at some point, which happened to stop under the boat where Wu Gen was, but it was two sharks with human heads and fish tails pulling the boat.

Yu Jiu and Yu 10 stood in the small boat, and the two mermaids flipped over and sank into the water, and the small boat jumped out like arrows and sped away into the distance.

"Gone?" Yang Zheng walked out of the cabin, watched the boat gradually disappear, and let out a sigh, "These days, with these two demons on the ship, I can't even sleep well, you said that they are young, how can they be so ruthless." ”

Wu Gen looked at the dominoes in his hand, his eyes were a little fluttering, "A small body doesn't mean that you are young, you have to be an old monster who has lived for many years." I'm a soul master, and I can feel it, their spirits are weird, lifeless, and not at all what a child should be. ”

"It's hard to give up." Yang Zheng's face was surprised, and after thinking about it, his face suddenly became serious, "Wu Gan, then you have to be careful, I have heard that taking away other people's skins will have to be changed after a while, could it be that they have taken a fancy to your body." By the way, you don't really want to go to Tianyamen. ”

"Why don't you go, we are against the Divine Religion, and many times we have to take the sea route, and for these earth overlords on the sea, we can win over one by one. Didn't you see that I didn't even kill the pirate leader on the road, didn't I just want to gather some more strength, but it's a pity that I was killed by Yu Jiu. Wu Jian patted the side of the boat gently, still a little unwilling.

"No wonder you're so interested in Yu Feng, it turned out to be this idea." Yang Zheng nodded again and again, and clapped his fists heavily, "After all, the strength of the door in the sea is too weak, otherwise why be so careful." ”

"Yang Zheng, the knife grinding door is the knife grinding door, we are us, you have to distinguish clearly." Wu Ganhan said, "We are just a knife in the hand of the knife grinding door, which can be discarded at any time, and only by being a knife catcher can we control our own destiny." ”

Pointing to the vast sea in the distance, "If you want to walk freely in the world, you must have a force of your own under your hands to not be controlled by others." Take advantage of the situation, and this momentum is not your own after all.

What kind of good people do you think the Knife Grinding Gate is, just like the Divine Cult, but a group of ambitious people competing with each other for power. As for you, Yang Zheng, whether to follow the Knife Grinding Gate or become us, you just choose. ”

Wu Gan's words were already very explicit, from beginning to end, he didn't want to be a member of the Knife Grinding Sect, but just to use his power.

Yang Zheng looked at Wu Gen in a daze, as if he had just met this person, and after a long time, he suddenly smiled dumbly, "It seems that my choice in the Great Relic Continent was right, Wu Gan, I didn't misunderstand you." Well, from now on, we are who we really are. ”

Talking about the rap, Wu Yan understood what Yang Zheng meant, and patted him lightly on the shoulder, "Isn't it just the throne of Xia Zhiguo, if you fight back, why bother to rely on others." With the power of the Knife Grinding Gate, even if you ascend to the throne, you will find that the Knife Grinding Gate is just another god cult. Let's go, get ready to go ashore. With that, he turned and walked towards the cabin.

Yang Zheng looked at Wu Gan's back, his fists slowly clenched, and he flicked his sleeves and strode to follow.

The ship docked, and soon a small official stationed in the harbor came up to investigate. The ship's owner quickly took out a slip of paper, and as he handed it over, he quietly stuffed a small piece of gold into his hand.

The little official's hand shook, and the gold fell into his sleeve. The whole action is smooth and untraceable, obviously not once or twice. Pretended to inspect the people and goods on board, and took out a large seal and stamped it. In this way, people on board are free to enter and walk in the harbor.

Wu Gen and Yang Zheng said goodbye to the owner of the ship and went straight to the shore. The ship's owner has done his job, and someone else is responsible for the rest.

An ordinary-looking carriage with a white feather hanging from its roof had been parked on the dock. Yang Zheng stepped forward to negotiate a few words with the driver of the car, and the two got into the car. Without any orders, the carriage drove directly to the city on the shore.

When passing by the city gate to hand over the city money, Wu Gan found that there were two locked wooden boxes on the table at the door, one white and one black, and the white one was obviously larger. Each of the two wooden boxes had a small hole through which the silver coins were inserted, presumably to prevent theft by the guards guarding the gates.

The coachman stuffed some money into both boxes, and then drove into the city gates.

Looking at Wu Gan's puzzled expression, Yang Zheng explained with a smile: "In Tianyuan Continent, all taxes have to be paid in two parts, one for the official family and one for the Divine Sect, and the white box is for the Divine Sect.

Generally speaking, even if all levels want to be greedy for tax money, they only dare to touch the official family, but no one dares to touch it, because once the money of the Divine Religion is moved, it will be whipped at least and executed at the worst, and no one can save it.

Sometimes, there will be a funny phenomenon, the taxes collected by the officials are different from those of the gods, and if there is a more serious emperor, you will find that it can be reduced by 30%. ”

Wu Yan was suddenly surprised, but asked curiously: "If someone in the Divine Sect violates the law, the state has the right to deal with it." ”

Yang Zheng looked at Wu Gen with a smile, but he didn't answer and asked, "Wu Gen, which law is this law you are talking about?" ”

"Of course, it's a decree of the imperial court." As soon as the words came out, Wu Yan came to his senses, "Could it be that the Divine Sect also has a law." ”

"Yes, yes." Yang Zheng's face showed anger, "In Tianyuan Continent, the secular law cannot control the people of the God Sect. The Cult of God has its own laws, but it can govern everyone. Because the people of Tianyuan Continent are all followers of the Divine Cult, they naturally have to obey the control of the Divine Cult. For example, if you steal a penny from the Cult, you will be punished by the Cult first, with a whipping and a sinner on your forehead.

Supposedly, it's okay to be punished so heavily, no. When the Cult releases you, you will have to accept the punishment of the imperial court, first of all, for the crime of disrespecting the Cult, and you will be locked up for a period of time, and after you come out, you will be punished for stealing. Therefore, ordinary people do not dare to touch the things of God's religion, lest they suffer two sins. ”

Wu Yan was dumbfounded when he heard this, "The law is out of the second door, aren't the people at a loss, and the imperial court also allows this extralegal law, a foreign country." ”

Yang Zheng said angrily: "Don't you allow it, the Divine Sect has its own army, and it can also recruit servant armies from various countries, and if you don't accept it, you can be subdued, to put it bluntly, it's still hard fists." ”

Wu Jian was really a little speechless, and his perception of the Divine Cult in his heart was even worse, and he finally understood why Li Zhenglu was so opposed to the Divine Cult entering the Zhao Kingdom.

When they entered the city, the carriage stopped directly at a luxury inn, where the grinding knife door had already booked a room.

Due to the many days of running at sea, Wu Geng went to bed early to rest. According to Yang Zheng's plan, the two of them were to stay in this place called Qingtong City for three days, and after the follow-up people came to pick them up, they would go all the way north to the northernmost part of Hu Buhe Country, and from there they would enter the rising sea.

According to Hu Buheguo's regulations, all ships from Beizhou can only go to Qingtong City, but they are not allowed to enter other ports. Needless to say, this is also one of the means of restricting other countries.

After resting for one night, Wu Gen went out early the next day and visited Qingtong City, and there was no fixed destination, just to see as he went.

The people here are not much different from those in Beizhou, except that the clothes are much simpler, and many poor people only wear a linen robe. But the rich man's clothes were obviously much more elaborate, and his body was adorned with gold and jade gems, and he did not care about the appearance of wealth.

Walking in the streets and alleys, the roads are intricate, and at the corners of the streets and alleys, you can see dead people lying on the ground, but the people coming and going are not visible.

Being in a prosperous port, there are still such troubled people, Wu Gen nodded slightly, it seems that the Divine Sect is not so rich and prosperous under the rule.

It is still the norm to help the plough and be hungry, and the shuttle girl has no clothes.

The most eye-catching thing in the city is the temple, which not only occupies the best position, but also occupies a large area, looking at it from afar, the Guidian Lan Palace, the Fei Pavilion Liudan, the construction is extremely luxurious. The most striking thing is that there is a tall tower in the middle, and there is a golden crow carving on the top of the tower, overlooking all parts of the city.

Wu Gen found a teahouse not far from the temple, chose a seat facing the street on the second floor, asked for a pot of tea, and carefully watched the movement of the temple.

From time to time, men dressed in black robes came in and out of the temple, and when the people saw them, they fell to their knees and did not dare to raise their heads, and offered them their goods with their hands.

These black-robed men picked and chose and put the valuable money into the white cloth bags they held. The chosen man was overjoyed and hurried into the temple. Those who are not selected are depressed.

Seeing that the black-robed man was leaving, a woman hurriedly greeted her, holding the child in her arms, begging for something. The black-robed man was displeased, shook it off and turned away. The woman had to kneel on the ground and weep and weep, but the child in her arms remained silent, apparently sick.

Wu Gan noticed that when the black-robed man stretched out his hand, he was wearing a ring inlaid with gems on all ten fingers on his hand, which showed that he was worth a lot of money.

Noticing Wu Gan's eyes, Yang Zheng explained: "Today should be the blessing day of the Divine Sect, but anyone who is sick and stubborn can enter and receive the blessing of the divine servant or divine official, but they also have to offer something. It is estimated that this woman's things are not valued by others, so they are not allowed to enter. ”

"What is a priest and a servant." Wu Qian asked curiously.
