Chapter 196: It's Fantasy But Not Illusion

In the end, Xu Mochen and others still lived in the inn for free, including free three meals a day.

The inn is not big, so it is equivalent to a bag shop.

At dinner, the shopkeeper greeted everyone warmly and brought his granddaughter out for everyone to see.

"Your Majesty," Tang Derun looked at Xu Mochen, who was motionless, and felt a little empty in his heart, "This shopkeeper's son is almost forty years old this year, and he has had children for several years, but to no avail.

Now that I finally have a granddaughter, I'm naturally happy."

Xu Mochen had a cold face, what is this, happy is happy, business still has to be done.

How much silver is worth making?

Even if I am the Son of Heaven, I do things in and out.

Shen Zhi smiled and said, "Lord Tang, don't stimulate Your Majesty, this is envy of other people's money."

Tang Derun was embarrassed, so he had to pretend not to hear.

"It always feels weird," Gu Jinge used to be a princess, although the royal family is rich and luxurious, but it can't be endlessly open-sourced, "It seems that the people here don't have to worry about their livelihood at all."

Zhao Lingbo nodded: "Just looking at the appearance, this level of prosperity can be said to be the first in the world."

"I'm afraid it's not," Xu Mochen shook his head slowly, "They didn't say that Rongcheng's appearance was just an average level in Lanzhou."

Good guys, if you are at the upper middle level, you will not enter a utopian society.

"There must be demons for a reason," Mu Nanyi on the side interjected, "The grass people have traveled to various states in Daqian over the years, and after the unification of the world, Ming Jun is on top and recuperates.

But to put it mildly, the people in most areas can only say that they are barely full.

It's a paradise on earth when this place is so rich."

Xu Mochen and the others glanced at each other, which summed it up very well.

He didn't dare to say how capable he was, but he thought he wouldn't be worse than an average emperor.

Even so, the troubled times have just ended, and it is very difficult to pull up the people's living standards in one go.

Such a situation in Lanzhou is absolutely unreasonable.

Behind this......

Everyone knew in their hearts that there were immortal cultivators involved!

Only Mu Nanyi was still nagging where: "I used to say that Jiangnan was rich, which is also a comparison.

The grass people have been to Ningzhou, which can be regarded as a good place, but there are still many people who live upside down.

If it's like here, then it must be the gods who came down to cast spells."

What Xu Mochen hates the most is what kind of immortal.

Everyone looked at him with a gloomy face, and in a fit of anger, they pulled Mu Nanyi out and beheaded him.

After all, under the faint king, there are no more people who tell the truth.

Xu Mochen came back to his senses and saw that everyone was staring at him, and he regained his relaxed appearance: "It all depends on what I do.

What the gentleman said makes sense, how can I not listen."

"Your Majesty," Mu Nanyi didn't know about the existence of immortal cultivators, "The grass people feel that Rongcheng is like this, surpassing other states of Daqian too much, and there must be something strange in it."

Xu Mochen also thought about this, and even doubted whether his group had fallen into illusion.

But the six swastikas were opened and carefully scanned, and they were indeed mortal.

After thinking about it, he still instructed Tang Derun: "Check the official mansion here."

In the next few days, Xu Mochen and others lived in Rongcheng.

The prosperity here subverts everyone's perception from time to time.

In comparison, it can be said to be heaven on earth.

Tang Derun's side didn't have much to gain.

When I asked about the local government, they were all honest and honest, loved the people, and governed well.

Privately entered the government to check, and all the county records were very complete.

In this way, Tang Derun is also helpless.

Xu Mochen looked at the report, he frowned: "So, at the beginning, it was because the production of the fields increased, and then all kinds of materials were also enriched year by year, forming the current situation

results."

"Yes," Tang Derun nodded; "What Weichen checked is that the grain output and the government's taxes have increased in recent years.

The construction of the city also has court documents, and then the officials mobilize the local people to build it together."

"Could it be that the two ministers of the Ministry of Industry are hiding something?" Xu Mochen didn't remember ordering Lanzhou to build a city.

"There was no reunification back then," this was the only reason Tang Derun could think of, "maybe the prime minister and others agreed."

After all, a remote area can build a city independently, which can be regarded as beneficial to the imperial court.

Xu Mochen clenched his fists, and things were completely wrong!

They didn't stay here for long, and when the situation was more or less understood, they continued their journey.

In Xu Mochen's memory, the roads in Lanzhou were rugged and difficult to walk.

Who knew that now, the roads are very neatly groomed, and the carriage has passed without any bumps.

Not long after, they came to another city, the size of which was larger than that of Rong City.

With the mountains behind, there is an ink-colored scene.

Now, Xu Mochen can be sure that there is definitely a problem here.

He looked at the two ministers of the Ministry of Industry, and his face was also full of doubts.

Doesn't it have anything to do with them?

The prosperity inside the city is similar to that of Rongcheng, but obviously the population here is even greater.

After checking in and settling in, Xu Mochen couldn't help it: "Tang Aiqing, check the immortal cultivators in Chalanzhou."

"The information is there," Tang Derun had already prepared, "The largest sect in Lanzhou before was the 'Six Tibetan Sect' in the Buddhist cultivation world.

Speaking of which, these six Tibetan sects are not the mainstream Buddhism of the Great Qianzhong Middle Earth, but a side branch.

In the Shifang World, there is not much sense of existence either.

Lanzhou is located in a remote area, and the configuration of such a large sect complements each other."

Xu Mochen glanced at him: "Now here, it is still 'remote', and when I look at my capital, it is not as good as the city here.

According to what you said, the Six Tibetan Sect is just a small sect, and if they intervene in the human race, it will play such a big role?"

Tang Derun snorted, "Wei Chen thinks that they may have used some magical powers or something."

"It's still wrong," Xu Mochen shook his head, "Aiqing thinks that Lanzhou can hide it from me, but it's okay.

With such a scale of prosperity, the Ten Directions World would not know?"

It is equivalent to saying that a big piece of fat meat was thrown in the wolves, and the wolves did not react.

Either the wolf is full, or the meat is poisonous!

Obviously, the latter is more likely.

Only then did Tang Derun realize the problem: "Your Majesty, please give me some time, Wechen will investigate in depth."

"Check carefully," Xu Mochen tapped on the map on the table, "and the aliens who were captured in the first place, these all point to Lanzhou, I guess there is definitely a mastermind behind it."

Tang Derun's heart sank: "Your Majesty suspects that the immortal cultivators have caught the alien here, and it has something to do with the current prosperity of Lanzhou."

"Once there is a deviation in the equivalent exchange, it will require additional payment," Xu Mochen was very calm, "Under the perfection, there must be something unknown to others."

In this regard, Tang Derun deeply agreed.

After explaining the matter, Xu Mochen left the room and went downstairs.

Here in the hall, there was only Mu Nanyi, and he frowned, as if he was counting something.

Xu Mochen stepped forward and saw a lot of words written on the paper: "Mr. is telling hexagrams?"

"Your Majesty," Mu Nanyi stood up and saluted, "The grass people feel that everything here is illusory, and they always feel that it is unrealistic, and they want to calculate it."

Xu Mochen pulled out a chair and sat down: "But what did you find?"

"No, it's all the upper hexagram," Mu Nanyi shook his head, "The grass people have used several methods, and the results are the same.

Merely...... According to the experience of the grass people, all these hexagrams seem to be covered with a veil."

Xu Mochen nodded:

"Sir, think it's all superficial?"

"Or," Mu Nanyi was still puzzled, "someone interfered with all this."

Immortal cultivator, Xu Mochen can be sure.

As he was talking, the door opened, and Shu Wuyin came in.

After saying hello, she also pulled out a chair and sat down, poured a cup of herbal tea, and drank it.

Shu Wuyin came to Lanzhou, mainly to find those strangers who were arrested.

"Did you find anything?" Xu Mochen asked.

"It's strange," Shu Wuyin put down his teacup, "Before entering Lanzhou, I could more or less feel the aura of the alien, proving that the road ahead was right.

But here, everything is gone, and it feels like it's been cut off."

Xu Mochen pondered, "Will they intervene?"

Shu Wuyin shook his head: "If it was an immortal cultivator, I would have sensed it a long time ago.

There must be immortal cultivators here in Lanzhou, but they don't appear among the human race."

It was the first time Mu Nanyi heard it, and he was stunned: "Immortal cultivator?"
