Chapter 0259: The Lonely Soul of the Great Wall
Put away the green gourd.
Chen Luo landed on the Great Wall.
Months of travel.
Or go.
or stop.
Not in a hurry, not too leisurely.
Now he has finally returned to the territory of Dazhou......
"I've seen all the generals."
Chen Luo returned the salute with some sighs in his heart.
In the past, the Great Zhou Order given by Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty played its role for the first time, if there was no Great Zhou Order......
Look at the thousands of broken immortal crossbows on the Great Wall.
There is a streamer flowing on the crossbow...
Although it has not been emitted, it can only be destroyed by the breath above...... Chen Luo thought, in the face of the crossbow arrows that covered the sky and the sun, I am afraid that even a strong person would be pierced into a sieve.
With the advent of the prosperous era of cultivating immortals, even the equipment of the Great Wall guards is also good.
And I'm afraid it's not just the Great Wall Guards.
The Great Zhou army is afraid that the same will be true.
It seems that in the past 20 years, our Emperor Mingxuan has made earth-shaking changes in the Great Zhou.
Now calculated, the age of Emperor Ming Xuan ...... It's over a hundred, right?
It's true that time is not forgiving.
"It should not be a father-in-law's courtesy."
Liu Junyi was terrified,
He asked: "In the past, I saw Lao Zhao in Yanmen Pass, and Lao Zhao said that my father-in-law entered the cold ice forest and went north into the northern region.
Now it's been 20 years.
My father-in-law came out of the Ice Forest today, could it be??? ”
"Our family is back in the Northern Regions!"
Liu Junyi was stunned.
And so it was.
It's been 20 years, that's a long time!
For them.
Where did you come from this life for decades?
General Liu asked Chen Luo about some things, most of them about the Northern Regions and the Ice Forest.
Chen Luozhi has nothing to say.
He asked Chen Luo about the Frost Giants again, and Chen Luo thought about it, but in the end he still didn't tell him about the gathering of the Frost Giants army that he had seen on the Cotai Strip in the past.
It's not that he deliberately concealed it, but even Chen Luo himself wasn't sure whether everything was accurate.
Therefore, after thinking about it again and again, there was a decision to wait for Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty to talk to him, and wait for the Great Zhou to decide how to talk about it.
Of course.
Chen Luo also asked many things.
Is Captain Rujiang okay?
I also asked Lao Zhao if he was okay?
I also asked about the past 20 years, everything is good in Da Zhou?
General Liu said something to Chen Luo in 1510, but it was only some big things.
After all, others are on the border of the Great Wall.
Although there is occasional news in the Great Zhou, it is only a few, and naturally it is impossible to cover everything.
But even so, Chen Luo felt that it was enough.
Because of these news, I was shocked... It has only been 20 years since the Great Awakening World was discovered, but looking back, it was all strange.
The first few years were fine.
However, in the eighth year of Yongding, Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty was advised by the new prime minister Zhao Qian, and the whole country began to reform.
The book is the same text.
Cars on the same track,
Walk in the same wheel.
Unified Monetary System!
In the past, the Great Zhou Dynasty destroyed Qin, and all aspects of customs were different.
In addition, several countries in the past, even if they have been unified for hundreds of years, there are always differences in some scripts and languages.
Chen Luo and other monks have all kinds of magical powers, so they naturally ignore those gaps in speech, but for the people, it is a troublesome matter.
As soon as this reform came out, Yongding soon entered an unprecedented prosperous era.
Said: The rule of eternal determination.
Nine years of Yongding,
Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty once again accepted Zhao Qian's suggestion to remove most taxes, such as grain taxes...... In order to enhance the private commercial economy and vigorously support commerce, the economy of the Great Zhou Dynasty has taken off!
Ten years of eternity.
In order to stimulate population growth, Da Zhou ordered that all unmarried men over 16 and women over 14 should be taxed, and each year it would be doubled compared to the previous year!
If the man reaches twenty ...... If a woman is over eighteen and has not yet married, she will be forcibly matched by the government!
Thirteen years of eternal determination.
The Great Zhou increased the number of troops...... Military service is practiced throughout the country, but all those who have reached the age of 16 are required to participate in military service......
If the conditions are met, you need to carry out up to five years of military service, and those who have not married a wife can be exempted from the tax and made up by the imperial court.
15 years of Yongding......
Between the counties and state capitals of the Great Zhou Dynasty, build a Yongding straight road!
This road is straight and several zhang wide......
Extremely shortened travel between states and counties... At the same time, it was ordered that the major official roads of the Great Zhou should be rebuilt, and they should not be barren and obstructed!
Twenty years of eternity.
The prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty got married, and the daughter of the princess Wu was determined......
Of course, these are just folk things, and there are many things that happen in the world of cultivating immortals.
For example, the immortal cultivation world has a great power.
In order to make the east come...
With the vast momentum into the sky, in Yongding ten years, into the realm of integration!
Its sect, the Sword Viewing Sect, rose in the realm of cultivating immortals.
Perhaps it is also because of this person that in just twenty years in the immortal cultivation world, there have been six major combinations before and after.
And one of them, convenient for the land of Longhu Mountain, is: Lu Xuan!
And this is one of them......
Evil cultivators in the immortal cultivation realm appeared.
There are murders and forcible plundering of souls.
There is the blood of the people to quench their souls.
There are even demon cultivators who plunder the opportunity to seek enlightenment and destroy a county, which caused Da Zhou to be furious.
Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty ordered...... Order the immortal cultivation world to strangle the evil cultivators with all their might, and those who do not contribute will be robbed of their Danshu iron coupons, and will no longer be subject to the great Zhou national fortune and the incense of the people......
It's not that no one is disobedient.
It's just that after Da Zhou took back a few Danshu iron coupons again, the world of cultivating immortals rose up to strangle the evil cultivators!
Of course......
There are many more of them.
It's just that something isn't important.
There are also a lot of things that Liu Junyi doesn't know, so he can't talk to Chen Luo in detail.
Of course, that's all there is to it.
For the immortal cultivation world, Chen Luo didn't care about it.
No matter how they tossed, in fact, in the end, they could only have an impact in the immortal cultivation world, and the Danshu iron coupon of the Great Zhou Dynasty tightly contained their lifeline.
National Games.
Incense
Commoners.
This is a sharp weapon for the Great Zhou.
As long as they want to pursue immortality, they will not be able to enter Kyoto.
Then the Great Zhou Emperor will always be above them.
Naturally, the impact may seem great, but it may not be.
As for Lao Zhao at Yanmen Pass, he is still there.
Every night, when the moon is in the sky, I don't forget to stand on the edge of the Great Wall, facing the northern land, facing the wind.
It's just that Captain Jiang is gone.
"Dead?"
Chen Luo was stunned: "How did you die?" ”
Captain Jiang's original name was Jiang Tianyuan......
Originally from a scholarly family, because his parents liked the pastoral life, so he named the word pastoral.
But it backfired.
Captain Jiang once heard that the storyteller mentioned the Great Wall Guards, so he resolutely went north to the Great Wall and joined the guards......
However, five years ago, Yanmen Pass was invaded by frost giants again......
In that battle, the death toll exceeded 1,000.
Although the frost giant stayed in Yanmen Pass, Jiang Tianyuan was torn off his arm by the frost giant in that battle, and when he was about to assimilate, he resolutely chose to isolate himself from Yanmen Pass.
Chen Luo was silent......
Sighed softly for a long time.
It's dead!
In the past, he entered the Yanmen Pass, which was led by him.
That's a nice guy too.
It's just that who thinks, I heard it again, but heaven and man are separated forever.
"Captain Jiang is the only son in the family, and his parents are still alive...... Lao Zhao took back his body and cremated it, intending to send him back to his hometown, but the Great Wall Guards were not allowed to leave the Great Wall...... His ashes are still in Yanmen Pass, and he can't go back! ”
Chen Luo nodded.
Didn't say anything.
Bidding farewell to General Liu, Chen Luo went south...... I just thought about it, went around again, and arrived at Yanmen Pass in the wind and snow.
On the tower of Yanmen Pass.
Lao Zhao sat there drinking with wine...... Suddenly, I felt something.
I saw someone break through the air.
After losing his mind slightly, he ordered the soldiers around him to let down their guard and let the man fall beside him.
Chen Luo looked at Lao Zhao.
He looked down at the gate of the Yanmen Gate again......
In the past, there was only a huge corpse of a frost giant, but now there is an extra one, which is quite symmetrical.
"When did you come back?"
"Not long after I came back, I came back from Cangcheng."
Lao Zhao threw out a jar of wine.
Chen Luo caught it.
Take a sip, the entrance is slightly spicy, but it is full of familiarity......
"This wine?"
"Lao Fenjiu!"
Lao Fenjiu......
I haven't drunk it in many years, but I didn't expect to drink it again here.
"You came back from Cangcheng?"
Lao Zhao said: "That is, you have seen Liu Junyi?" ”
"Yes."
"Got something?"
"Yes."
"Then there's no need to say anything......"
Lao Zhao sighed and grabbed somewhere in the city with his empty hands......
A porcelain jar flew out.
It fell into his hands.
"Is that him?"
"Yes."
Lao Zhao said: "I'm sorry for him, this time he should have died old, but he blocked this catastrophe for me." ”
I don't know these details.
General Liu didn't say anything.
Chen Luo took Captain Jiang's urn and put it back into the storage bracelet.
He sat down, sat next to Lao Zhao, and chatted with Lao Zhao.
Of course, it's a chat. In fact, it's not talking, but listening to Lao Zhao.
Captain Jiang's death has become Lao Zhao's inner demon, and in the past five years, he has not been at peace day and night.
As a guardian, although there have been countless witnesses of life and death, it should have long been used to it.
But in fact, how many people can get used to it?
Do not ignore life and death.
Facing life and death calmly?
He said...... He has no regrets in his life to defend people! ”
He said...... Even if I live another life, I am willing to be a guardian again! ”
"But he's only forty!"
"Not only him, but also the children, the youngest of whom is eighteen."
"They rushed forward and pounced, but no one retreated."
"Even if you die, you have no regrets."
"But all this should not be borne by them...... They are just ordinary people, and they deserve to have the life of ordinary people. ”
Lao Zhao gritted his teeth.
looked at the hinterland of Da Zhou......
It was as if he was looking at a certain sect in the world of cultivating immortals.
"They call themselves extraordinary, affected by the fortune of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the love of incense, but what have they done?"
"When did they come to see the Great Wall in the north?"
"Did they ever know that there is such a group of children in this Great Wall land, like moths, going forward one after another, just to protect this Great Zhou Land?"
Lao Zhao's tears flowed, and his eyes became red.
The breath on his body also became more and more manic, the huge wild goose gate closed, the wind and snow fell, and the cold wind was blowing.
He's furious!
Angry!
More dissatisfied!
Not to mention a thousand, even if there are hundreds of monks resident in this Great Wall in the north...... can also save the lives of countless ordinary children,
The Great Zhou is not their own Great Zhou.
It is the great week of the people of the world......
But why are they the ones who shed the blood?
They are the ones who have no home to return to, and finally become the rootless soul of this duckweed???
He didn't understand, so he fell into the devil at this moment...
