Chapter 118: Reactions from all sides
This is the first time Qi Zixiao has heard this name.
However, according to Zhou Cheng's words, to be among them is to belong to the Tianjiao of a state, the number of people in a county is tens of millions, the number of people in a state is more than 100 million, and among the hundreds of millions of people, it ranks among the top 100, which can be imagined.
Qi Zixiao exhaled lightly, his eyes moved, and he looked at the other party, "Who is on this list?" ”
"This was discharged by the Great Qi Imperial Court, saying that it was to encourage all cultivators to work hard."
Zhou Cheng said with a strange expression, "However, after the list came out, the entire cultivation world went crazy, and countless powerhouses did not hesitate to fight to the death in order to compete for the rankings, and in a short period of time, a large number of sects declined. ”
Qi Zixiao's heart was shocked, and he suddenly understood the intention of the imperial court, which was to use fame and fortune to cause the struggle of the sects in the world, so that the strength of the sect could be weakened.
This is Yangmou, those sects should also be able to see it, but in the red dust, who can escape this vanity fair, see through fame and fortune, indifferent and detached, that is the state of mind of a saint.
In the red dust world, except for a few people, even if they are noble, they can't escape the shackles of fame and fortune, knowing that this is a trap, but they still have to jump in.
Because they don't fight, others will go, what if you see through it, those who can't see through it will fight for it, and their reputation will increase with their fortune, and only the interests of their own side will be weakened.
After all, it is the living beings who make up this world.
Smart people are only a minority, and they can't stand up to the general trend.
This reminded Qi Zixiao of a patient he had met in a mental hospital, to be precise, it was not a patient, but a person who was extremely smart.
At that time, the guy told himself that he was very confused, Qi Zixiao asked him why, and the other party said that he was too smart, because of this, he was incompatible with the world, and he always wanted to change something, but, in the end, he found that he couldn't change anything, history, was created by ordinary people, not by smart people.
Smart people can only see the problem clearly and follow the trend, and they can't swim against the current at all.
The times make heroes, not heroes make the times.
He is just a pawn, and if he can't recognize his position and wants to jump off the board, he will only end up losing the whole game.
Thinking of this, Qi Zixiao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it seems that there is a great power in Daqi.
"Where can I see the list of people?"
Qi Zixiao asked curiously.
"If you need it, I'll copy it for you when I go back, not only the list of people, but also the list of the earth and the sky."
Zhou Cheng said with a smile.
"Ground list? Heavenly list? What level of master is this recorded? ”
Qi Zixiao was a little surprised.
"The list records are strong people above the fifth grade and below the seventh grade, and there are a total of thirty-six in the entire Qingzhou, representing the thirty-six people who are the strongest under the land immortals in Qingzhou, most of them are six-grade strong, but it is not that there are no five-grade martial artists on the list."
Zhou Cheng explained with a smile.
As for the heavenly list, it is above the seven grades, there is no ranking, as long as you break through the seven grades, you will automatically enter the list, the ranking is not in any order, the strength and weakness can only depend on their respective records or fight in person. ’
"At present, on the heavenly list, there are only four masters at the level of land immortals, namely the Snow God Heavenly Maiden of the Snow God Palace, the Six Holy Masters of the Six Dao Gates, the Great Virtue Holy Monk of the Zen Heart Temple, and the white-clothed Sword Immortal of the Taishang Sword Realm."
Zhou Cheng opened his mouth with a look of reverence, land immortals, looking at all parts of China, it is a transcendent realm, you can overlook the world and clouds, Rao is the lord of a country, and you have to give three points.
That is the real realm of immortals, according to legend, in the era of the gods, that kind of existence can enter the immortal realm.
Qi Zixiao's eyes flashed, and he nodded, and his curiosity about this so-called three lists of heaven, earth and man rose.
Compared with Qingxian, such a world is rich and colorful enough.
Just when Qi Zixiao and these subordinates were tidying up the yard, there were already stormy waves in the county government at this time.
A new young man, with a three-grade cultivation, directly took the position of the blue-clothed head catcher, which made those who were interested in competing for this position extremely angry.
They felt that it was the county keeper who was cultivating his own power, but when they learned that He Xiu of the He family was almost killed with a knife, all doubts disappeared in an instant, and what followed was surprise.
In the courtyard of the county guard, when he heard the introduction of his subordinates in front of him, a smile rose at the corner of Yan Shoujing's mouth, "Yes, it seems that He Xiu's chicken killed a lot." ”
"However, the He family will not give up, they are determined to win the position of the blue-clothed head catcher."
Next to him, the knife-wielding guard whispered.
"Hehe, the He family is just a moth in Sanyang County, controlling one-third of the shipping and iron smelting in the entire county, and now it is becoming more and more presumptuous."
Yan Shoujing's eyes were cold.
"I will be transferred away in two years, and if I don't do it, it is estimated that it will be too late, and before I leave, at least I have to give a better environment for future generations."
Hearing this, the guards beside him turned pale and nodded slowly, "It's still thoughtful adults, but you put your hope on a little night watchman, aren't you afraid that he will be killed by the He family?" ”
"Little night watchman? Lao Zhan, you are wrong, although the night watchman does not interfere in the affairs of the court, but in a huge court, who dares to underestimate the night watchman, as long as they want to, there is nothing they can't do. ”
Yan Shoujing spoke slowly.
"That being said, this isn't the Night's Watch headquarters after all."
The old man said.
"Zhong Xuan, do you know where he came from?"
Yan Shoujing asked with a slight smile.
"The commander of the Sanyang County Night's Watch Division?"
Lao Zhan said.
"That's just the surface, back then, he was the most promising to stay in Shangjing and become the commander, hehe, Shangjing Sanjie, Tiangang, Disha, Xuanhuang, the third is Zhong Xuan!"
The county keeper said with a deep look in his eyes.
"It's a pity that an accident ended up in this small Sanyang County."
He said with a hint of pity.
Hearing this, Lao Zhan's body beside him was shocked, "I remembered, it turned out to be him, I also heard about him back then, but then he disappeared, I always thought he was dead......"
"Behind this little guy is Zhong Xuan, Zhong Xuan intends to train him to be the new successor, you say, in Sanyang County, who can move him."
The county keeper opened his mouth with a smile.
……
Sanyang County, He Family
"Bang"
The sound of the cup breaking sounded, and a middle-aged man in a gorgeous robe had a cold face, looking at the elders of the He family sitting around.
"There are also people who dare to grab the position that our He family has a fancy for, very good, very good."
His voice was low, with a terrifying killing intent.
On the other side, He Xiu had a bitter face, and was watched by the entire He family.
"What is the origin of that Qi Zixiao, find someone to kill him."
A clan elder said in a cold voice.
A mere third-rank martial artist, even if he can defeat the fourth-grade, they don't care, in Sanyang County, the fifth-grade masters dare not be presumptuous.
Unless it's the ones on the top of the list.
"Kill him, sixth brother, do you want to tear your face with the county guard, that Qi Zixiao is the person personally arranged by the county guard, if you kill him, you will declare war with the county guard, what does the county guard represent, that is the face of the imperial court, once war is declared, do you think our family can fight the imperial court?"
Another clan elder spoke in silence.
Hearing this, everyone was in their hearts, although the He family was powerful, but compared with the imperial court, grasshoppers were not counted, and they really wanted to kill them, and their He family guaranteed that the chickens and dogs would not be left.
Of course, the county guard can't replace the entire imperial court, and if there is no reasonable reason, the county guard can't do anything to his He family, after all, their He family has not only taken root in Sanyang County for many years, but also has its own relationship in the state capital.
"Can't we just put up with this!"
The first clan elder to speak said.
"What do you think, master?"
At this time, they all looked at the head of the family.
The middle-aged man's name was He Ting, and he looked at He Xiu with a cold gaze.
"The sword technique used by the other party can actually break the fourth form of your retirement knife, this is really strange, our He family's retirement knife is a five-grade sword technique, although you are only a small success, but you should not be defeated by a third-grade martial artist."
"I've never seen his sword technique, it's extremely domineering......"
He Xiu said with a bitter face.
"Extremely domineering, is it the overlord's sword?"
He Ting's eyes moved, and he suddenly asked.
Hearing this name, everyone's eyes flashed, and their breath fluctuated.
"If it is really the Overlord Sword, this world-beating mastery should fall into the hands of my He family."
A clan elder said in a gloomy tone.
"Back then, this world-famous knife technique was divided and scattered all over the world, and there were many people who knew it, but most of them were one or two tricks that he mastered, and I don't think this guy knew all the knife techniques."
Another clan elder spoke.
"Okay, don't discuss it, now that this guy has just arrived, it's not suitable to start right away, we need to save some face for the county guard."
He Ting waved his hand, signaling that everyone didn't need to discuss it anymore.
Although they were very angry that the position of the blue-clothed head catcher was snatched away, they still had basic reason, if they made a move immediately and killed Qi Zixiao, they would become the target of public criticism, and the county guard would definitely not hesitate to tear his face and do something to them.
At that time, the other big families may not be able to help, after all, they are the ones who are at fault.
Therefore, he decided to stand still for the time being.
When the others heard this, they all nodded and said no more.
"As for you, go back to the county office and continue to do your thing, and tell me as soon as you have any news."
He Ting looked at He Xiu and said calmly.
"Yes, Master."
He Xiu said respectfully.
……
In several other places, there are different reactions, some people gloat, some people are shocked, and some people have some expectations.
Inside a huge mansion, in a quiet room.
Faintly, a vast and grand portal was erected, and the portal was open at this time, vast and deep, and there was a tumbling mist everywhere, and it was white.
In the midst of this world, a figure stood in it, the figure was slightly unreal, and beneath him, the mist rolled, as if something was being born.
I don't know when, all the visions disappeared, revealing the figure behind them, that is, Wudong River!
"It's a pity, it's still a little bit, the gate of heaven is easy to open, and the heavenly palace is difficult to gather......"
Wu Donghe spoke softly, with a hint of regret in his eyes.
After staying at the fourth-grade level for five or six years, with the resources of the martial arts, he had already accumulated enough foundation to impact the fifth-grade Heavenly Palace level, but unfortunately, the fifth-grade was not that simple and could be broken through, and he tried several times, all of which ended in failure.
"However, it's almost there, at most two years, I will break the five grades!"
Wu Donghe opened his mouth confidently.
This is the self-confidence of being a family of fighting, their martial arts family has passed down the generations with martial arts, fighting the heavens and the earth, and has never been afraid of any difficulties.
