Chapter 158: Inner Growth

"Too much deception!"

The solid wood table was smashed by the smash, and the flying sawdust burst out like a hidden weapon, and in the hut, Meng Zhan's face turned pale:

"Old Pifu Ann dares to bully me like this?!"

Among the sawdust, Meng Zhan was full of anger, his clothes moved without wind, and he made a 'whoosh' sound.

Inside and outside the hut, all the masters of the Zhenwutang lowered their eyebrows and were silent.

"Hall Master."

At this time, a young man dressed in green armor strode from outside the courtyard, glanced at the rest of the people outside the house, and waved his hand to let them go down.

"The open furnace."

Seeing the comer, Meng Zhan's face softened: "What's wrong?"

Wang Minglu walked into the room quickly, closed the door, and replied in a low voice:

"Six shrines, including the Mansion Office, Wang's Mansion, Burrow Alley, and Baicao Pavilion, were all destroyed, and the waste of the Cult was killed and injured......

"Rubbish!"

Meng Zhan's face twitched, and he could barely suppress his anger: "Su Wanxiong's command is all rubbish!"

Wang Minglu's heart froze, and he said in a deep voice, "Hall Master, you have become more and more angry these days."

"The old man practices the God-worshipping Fa given by the main hall, and he will not easily lose control and go crazy, but today he can't suppress the anger in his heart."

Meng Zhan waved his hand, but he didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but his eyes were cold:

"Where the six altars are, only the old man knows, and even you don't know all the directions before today, how can the old man know?"

"This ......"

Wang Minglu shook his head: "This is also the doubt in the hearts of his subordinates......

"This matter must be investigated thoroughly!"

Meng Zhan's face was pale, and he felt uneasy.

He thought that he was already acting extremely carefully, those six altars didn't know each other's existence, who had such a great ability to find out all of them?

"Yes."

Wang Minglu nodded, and couldn't help but be a little worried: "If this matter is exposed, what should we do?"

"What does the Valley of the Divine Soldiers do with conniving at the blood sacrifice of the Cult of Evil Gods? At best, this parish master is a dereliction of duty."

Meng Zhan sneered again and again: "If not, then the old horseman will not be a warning today, but will do it directly!"

"Warning?"

"The old horseman is going to force me to leave."

Meng Zhan regained his composure: "Ming Furnace, the flying pigeon passes the book to the state hall and the state office, and after that, we will leave the Dragon Mansion temporarily!"

"Leaving the city?"

Wang Minglu was a little unwilling, but he could only nod and retreat.

"Valley of the Divine Soldiers!"

In the room, Meng Zhan's face was expressionless, but his chest kept rising and falling, and the fire in his heart was really a little uncontrollable.

Zhenwutang's duty is to supervise the place, but he is actually forced out of the city, which is a great shame!

"There will be a day, there will be a day......

After taking a few deep breaths, he still couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, Meng Zhan pushed open the door to vent his anger.

……

……

"More than 1,400 years ago, Taizu divided the world, and all the sects that deserved meritorious service were rewarded. But after the death of Taizu, the imperial court was always thinking about leveling the sects, sweeping the world, and recovering the right to pay taxes."

On the carriage back to the Valley of the Divine Soldiers, Jing Shuhu had a lot of rare words, and talked to Li Yuan about the court and the situation.

The imperial court relied on the sect to rule the world and collected taxes, but at the same time, it was also extremely dissatisfied with the sect's deduction and extraction, and it had been fighting openly and secretly for hundreds of years.

Violent organs such as Zhenwutang and Jinghei Division also came from this.

"Cut the domain."

Li Yuan nodded to show that he understood, Pang Wenlong had the heart to divide the world, and his descendants may not have it.

Two brothers in a family may turn against each other because of family property, let alone the world?

It's normal to fight openly and secretly.

Even, diffusion thinking, those emperors who were assassinated by the Star Picking Tower, were they really assassinated by the Star Picking Tower?

Treating others with himself, Li Yuan felt that he wanted to be those big

The sect was forced to be anxious, so he covered his face and went desperately.

"Well, almost. Our sect is very similar to the vassal kings of the previous dynasty, but it is not the same surname as the emperor."

Jing Shuhu sat cross-legged, and his breathing was almost none, which was a manifestation of the breathing method that had long been integrated into his instinct:

"One state, one prefecture and one county, the sects fight each other, but once the imperial court intervenes, it will definitely be attacked together!"

The Great Sectarian Alliance.

Li Yuan understands very well that compared to the imperial court, a single sect naturally seems to be weak, and it is inevitable to join forces to fight.

At this time, the benefits of reading more books were reflected at this time, and as soon as Shuhu said it, Li Yuan could quickly understand.

Universiade is a country established by force, and the sect rules the world, one state, one prefecture, one prefecture, all of which are autonomous by sects, and have the right to draw taxes and train soldiers.

As far as he knows, the tax of the Dragon Mansion can be drawn by the Valley of the Divine Soldiers by two to three percent, and the rest will be paid to the state by the government city, and the Huailong Palace will also be transferred to two percent.

After that, it was handed over to Daocheng, Daocheng, and Longhu Temple......

Layer by layer, what really fell into the hands of the imperial court was actually only two or three percent.

This is in the true sense of the word, the whole world.

"The imperial court created Zhenwutang, with the intention of transferring the elite of the sect to suppress the sect, and when Taizu was there, the families still sold some face, and now they ......

Jing Shuhu shook his head.

Li Yuan didn't say much, just listened, and had a deeper understanding of the relationship between the sect and the imperial court.

The imperial court wants to cut the feudal domain, and the sect wants to divide the territory, which is so simple that it is clear at a glance.

"Alright, it's far away."

Jing Shuhu sighed a little and stopped mentioning the matter, and at this time, the carriage also arrived at the foot of Shenbing Mountain.

"By the way, I heard Lao Lei say that you want to go to the Secret Vault and the Divine Weapon Pavilion?"

Before getting out of the car, Jing Shuhu suddenly spoke.

"Huh?"

Li Yuan nodded: "The disciple wants to observe the blades left by the ancestors of the past dynasties, and experience the ancestors' thinking of forging soldiers......

"No."

After Shuhu refused, seeing that the latter was a little disappointed, he was a little satisfied in his heart, and said:

"However, for the sake of Lao Lei's face, the old man can promise you......

Li Yuan raised his head, but he was a little expected of this.

Jing Shuhu held his hands behind his back:

"Every time you hit a top-grade famous weapon, the old man will go to the Divine Weapon Pavilion to get a high-grade famous weapon for you to observe, and at the same time, he will go to the secret building to choose a martial art you want!"

Regarding Li Yuan's request, Jing Shuhu was not surprised.

The disciples of the Hammer Soldier Hall are naturally very clear about the pursuit of root bone change and Yi Duoxing, and what makes him satisfied is that this kid has not forgotten the art of forging soldiers while practicing martial arts.

"Thank you, Great Elder!"

Li Yuan was overjoyed in his heart and hurriedly thanked him.

"Hmm."

Jing Shuhu nodded and was about to leave.

"That disciple built that inner armor before......

"Huh?"

Jing Shuhu frowned, brushed his sleeves away:

"Let's forget it!"

"Thank you, Great Elder!"

After hearing it, the obvious heartfelt thanks, the corners of Shuhu's mouth rose slightly, and disappeared on the mountain road in a few ups and downs.

It seems to be in a good mood.

……

To the southeast of Shenbing Mountain, outside the mountains and forests facing the sun, is the temporary garrison built by the Shenwei Army and the place where the soldiers are recruited.

In the clearing where the yellow mud compacted, the tents stretched for miles, and hundreds of soldiers practiced here, and the strong blood seemed to melt the snow.

"The B-shaped battalion has been expanded three times, and now there are 8,000 people, the lowest of which are also martial artists who have cultivated internal strength, and there are not a few who quench their bodies and strengthen their internal strength."

Outside the open space, Li Yuan looked out from afar, thousands of warriors lined up to perform martial arts, which was very spectacular, Yu Jin said beside him.

This veteran of the Divine Guard Army was very familiar with the military formation, and on the way he told Li Yuan about many rules of the barracks and what to pay attention to.

"If you expand it again, it will be ten thousand."

Li Yuan sighed a little.

A team of martial artists who have cultivated internal strength are lined up, and hundreds of ordinary people are about to be defeated with one blow, not an opponent.

Eight thousand people is enough to storm the city.

"I heard that Duanmusheng is going to expand to 30,000 people."

Yu Jin is also very familiar with the news of the Divine Guard, although he has retired, he also has disciples and grandchildren in the Divine Guard.

"Isn't 30,000 more?"

Li Yuan frowned slightly.

There are only 1,000 people in the word battalion, even if they are all elites, but if they control thirty, they will inevitably be bloated, and their combat power may not increase much.

The army is to be trained, not to cultivate internal strength.

"It's hard to say."

Yu Jin didn't say anything.

Several people walked towards the barracks, Li Yuan still had the waist card of the commander of the Divine Guard, which was naturally unimpeded, and he quickly found the officer in charge of the personnel dispatch of the barracks.

The departure and stay of a few miscellaneous disciples naturally do not need to find a great commander like Duanmusheng.

"Senior Brother Li?"

The officer obviously recognized Li Yuan, and when he saw him coming to him, he was a little flattered, and hurriedly moved the chair.

I heard that he was going to transfer a few disciples, so he hurriedly brought the roster, and quickly handled the things that Liu Zheng and Wang Peiyao couldn't do with money.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Li."

Li Yuan nodded, left, and along the way, took away the heavy armor that he had not come to pick up before.

Heavy armor and a bow and crossbow were the only things he couldn't easily get his hands on.

"Senior Brother Li, walk slowly!"

The officer went all the way to the gate of the barracks, waving loudly, attracting the attention of a crowd and smiling even more.

But as soon as he turned around, he was startled: "Sun, Elder Sun......

"Humph!"

Sun Zan snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and went to the big tent.

In the big tent, Duanmusheng sat in armor, looking through the file, and in front of him was a huge marching sand table.

It can be seen that a red line passes through the mountains and forests, approaching the city.

"Archon!"

Sun Zan bowed.

"Hmm."

Duanmusheng put down the dossier.

"After Wang Zhaozhi and Lin Jia were assassinated, Zhenwutang reacted greatly, but it should be to leave the city temporarily."

Sun Zan replied.

"The Sanyuanwu army is coming, the stability in the city is the first, and Meng Zhan is a person who understands."

Duanmusheng was not surprised, the only surprise was:

"That Lin Jia Tong has already been completed, so there are such good hands in the Star Picking Tower?"

"After all, it's a star-picking building."

Sun Zan was a little jealous, some time ago, he was assassinated, and then he hid in the Divine Weapon Pavilion for more than half a month.

"It's better for Meng Zhan to retreat, so that the old man can take action."

Duanmusheng did not dwell on this, and continued to look through the file.

Sun Zan sat for a while, chatted with him for a few words, and when he left, he pretended to mention it inadvertently:

"By the way, I met Li Yuan when I entered the camp, but I came to meet the Grand Commander?"

"Li Yuan?"

Glancing at the back of Sun Zan's departure, Duanmu Sheng frowned slightly, he put down the file and took out a letter from his arms.

He tapped on the table, swept the last sentence of the letter, suddenly burst into laughter, and raised his hand to shake the letterhead into powder:

"Which is more important? People, you know yourself!"
