Since the end of that incident, a killing order has been issued in the imperial city, and the officials and troops in various places have been dispatched to arrest, offer rewards, and encircle and suppress the green forests and mansions and rivers and lakes in various places.

In that war, the masters and elites in the rivers and lakes all died tragically, and very few survived, so in less than half a year, the entire rivers and lakes suffered a bloody catastrophe from beginning to end.

The remnants of the various factions, those who were killed, those who were caught, were almost all destroyed.

It was also from this that those initial "holy immortals" began to support the Xiuzhen sect in various places to do things for them, suppressing the rebels on the one hand, and looting spiritual property on the other.

"In this way, the Qi Cultivation Sect outside Huyang City is also one of them?" He Yi asked.

"Not bad. There are four cities in Rongzhou, and there is a Xiuzhen Immortal Gate outside each city. In other words, within the 36 counties of Kyushu, there are a total of 36 of the top Xianmen factions, which serve as the minions of the state pastors in various states. That Qi Sect is supported by Rongzhou Mu Yuanzhen, and Yuanzhen is a person, because he entered the world late, so his strength is not as strong as the immortal sect in Zhongzhou and other places. Gongliangju nodded and said.

Hearing this, He Yi frowned: "First appoint the Taishou and then support the Immortal Gate, so is there any connection between the two?"

Gongliang Ju thought for a while and said, "Everyone does their own things, and there is not much connection. However, under normal circumstances, the orders of the state pastor must be promulgated to the Taishou of each city first, and then the Taishou will notify the Xiuzhen Xianmen to carry it out. ”

He Yi Linglong's seven tricks, how transparent his mind was, and after a little thought, he saw through the intention of such an arrangement, and couldn't help sneering to show his disdain: "Isn't it superfluous for the state pastors to appoint their cronies as Taishou, but they don't let them practice Taishou, but instead they have to support the cultivation forces to do things for them? Moreover, people who cultivate the truth have always held themselves very highly, how can they obey the orders of a mere mortal Taishou? In my opinion, they just want the cities to keep watch and check and balance each other with the Xiuzhen sects outside the cities. ”

In this way, although the officials are mortals, they have titles and powers, and they are naturally superior to others.

Although the cultivator is highly respected by the world, he is a cloth cloth, and although his strength is strong, his power is not as good as that of officials.

Each has its own strengths and weaknesses, and the balance between them is perfect.

And the "holy immortal" who is the pastor of Kyushu Prefecture, while watching the two sides fight, sits back and enjoys the success, comfortably waiting for the people below to pay tribute to their spiritual property.

What a good idea!

"I always thought that people who cultivate the truth should have a pure heart and few desires and not be stained with red dust, but I didn't expect to play with this imperial power technique. ”

Cultivators never trust others, they only believe in themselves.

They already have such great strength, but they are still guarding against them everywhere.

"Don't they feel tired at all when they live like this?" He Yi whispered to himself.

Speaking of this, the past of Kyushu that Gongliang Ju knows is finished.

From this paragraph, He Yi found a few weak points, which may be used as an entrance to a breakthrough.

First, the 36 counties of Kyushu, the Taishou of each county and the Xianmen in various places are in a relationship of mutual restraint and mutual surveillance.

In other words, the relationship between the two is not much better, if not like fire.

Second, those who are officials are not allowed to practice. This is worth playing.

He remembered that Huyang City had ordered the plains to recruit the people.

If it is not possible to practice as an official, then what is the use of Huyang Taishou looking for spiritual property?

Moreover, he didn't need the soldiers of Huyang City, but he still had to come to this remote plain county to recruit, which was obviously to hide people's eyes.

said that he didn't have any small calculations in his heart, and He Yi would not believe it.

"The Treasure Competition Conference is about to begin, and Huyang City is a necessary place to go to the Qi Sect, and there will definitely be more and more cultivators from other places passing through here. In my opinion, that Huyang Taishou must want to find a batch of spiritual products before this, and then exchange it with cultivators from other places for the method of cultivating the truth...... Hmph, it's really hard work!" He Yi gently blew the tea in the cup and drank it in small sips.

The corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, indicating that He Yi at this time already had a general idea and direction in his heart.

Next, it's just a matter of carefully planning your next move, and ...... Detailed information in Huyang City.

Since he is determined to raise troops, He Yi will naturally not be satisfied with a small county on the plains, sooner or later, it is necessary to expand the territory outward.

Pingyuan County is on the border of Rongzhou, and a little further south is Huyang City, one of the four cities of Rongzhou, which is the first choice for sending troops to capture.

Of course, that's an afterthought.

Today's plain is still in an extremely unstable state, even if He Yizhen wants to send troops to attack Huyang, he must first wait for the plain to completely settle down, and then make careful plans.

"Let's not talk about these things first, Yunyi, do you know that I am in trouble at this time?" He Yi sat in front of the desk, personally made a pot of tea for Gongliangju, and handed it over.

After He Yi took over the post of Pingyuan County, there were not many transfers to other officials and generals in the county, so there was not much change in the county.

Everyone only knows that there is a change of county, that's all, and everything else is developing in a good situation.

This is internal.

Although the internal situation is good, the external situation is really worrying, such as————

"Li Rong Village. Gongliangju took the tea and said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Li Rongzhai is really a big force, if you can't take it for your own use, it's a pity. He Yi nodded slightly.

Speaking of Nali Rongzhai, after the purge a few years ago, it is indeed possible to raise a banner again and subdue the rogues in the northern part of Rongzhou.

Although the leader of Na Li Rong is a scheming person, his 3,000 soldiers and horses can be called a well-trained elite general.

The battle was valiant and the advance and retreat were orderly, as can be seen from the performance in the last battle on the plains.

According to Gongliangju, these 3,000 elite soldiers were all trained by the man named Su Qian for Li Rongzhai.

It is a pity that such a talented person who is proficient in the way of military training dies prematurely.

He Yi wanted to bring those elite soldiers under his command as soon as possible, but what made people helpless was that he still had more important things to do, and he was really a little lacking.

Originally, Huyang City ordered that they should recruit 500 middle-aged people from Pingyuan County and send them to Huyang to stand by.

Although He Yi took the post of county magistrate by himself, he still had to listen to Hu Yang's orders in name.

Therefore, in the next few days, He Yi will take these 500 people to Huyang as the Cheng of Pingyuan County.

Therefore, in the next period of time, He Yi has no time to take care of other things.

Therefore, He Yi can only put the matter of Li Rongzhai on Gongliangju, after all, Gongliangju has done things for Lirongzhai, and he can be regarded as a little friendship, and it is much more convenient than He Yi to act.

"Major General, please rest assured, about the matter of Li Rongzhai, Ju is willing to lobby with a three-inch tongue. ”

Gongliang Ju comprehended, got up to answer the matter, bowed to He Yi, and then withdrew from the front hall to prepare for this matter.

...... ......

A few days passed, in addition to dealing with some civil affairs on a daily basis, He Yi focused on the mass production of the Demon Breaking Arrow on the one hand, and sent people to pay attention to the interrogation of the previous county magistrate.

He thought that the county was a soft bone, and with a little interrogation, he could pry open the other party's mouth, but who knew that the guy was very shrewd.

During the first interrogation, he tried to get away with some half-truths.

If He Yi hadn't heard some clues from the mouth of the county Cheng's wife and daughter, he would have almost been deceived by him.

So, He Yi asked Pei Dong to impose heavy punishment on Naxian Cheng.

On this day, Pei Dong brought Jia into the mansion and brought the latest news to He Yi.

There are roughly two things.

First, General Zhao, as well as the Shuixing monk who was shot and killed by the Demon Breaking Arrow before, were indeed not the generals of Huyang City, and they had nothing to do with the Qi Cultivation Sect, they were all fabricated by Naxian Cheng to confuse the people.

These two people were just ordinary monks who came to Pingyuan County by chance, and the county Cheng left them behind, wanting to obtain the cultivation method from them, and in exchange, the county Cheng agreed to help the two of them find the spiritual property in the dry snow forest.

Thus, there was the first recruitment of troops in the plains.

In other words, they didn't have to worry about the Qi Sect coming to them for the time being.

This couldn't help but make He Yi breathe a sigh of relief.

With the current garrison strength of Pingyuan County, it is still difficult to deal with one or two monks, and if it alarms the behemoth of the Qi Cultivation Sect, I am afraid that it will be destroyed in an instant.

The second is about the Treasure Competition.

Lian Qi Zongguang invited all the immortal sects and families in the world to go to the mountain gate to participate in the treasure competition, or barter.

Spiritual property is used as coin, and magic weapons or spiritual objects are used as goods.

The purpose of this is to exchange the "chicken ribs" between the monks in order to achieve the purpose of taking what they need.

For example, for a water monk, a spiritual product or earth attribute that contains the aura of the earth belongs to the category of "chicken ribs". Although it is precious, the five elements do not match, and it is naturally impossible to use, so it can be said that it is tasteless to eat, and there is meat when discarded.

As for the use of the five hundred people of the plains, it was naturally for the purpose of collecting spiritual products for the Taishou of Huyang.

However, the above clearly prohibits Taishou cultivation, but the so-called "there are policies at the top, and there are countermeasures at the bottom", and being in a high position, he naturally longs for immortality, so how can he give up?

If these civilians can find some spiritual properties for them, then Taishou can take this opportunity to secretly exchange cultivation exercises from other cultivation forces, so that they can not only show favor to the cultivators of the Qi Sect, but also obtain the cultivation exercises without knowing it, which can be said to be counted in one fell swoop.

This is exactly what He Yi guessed.

He Yi paced back and forth for a few steps, and while thinking about the matter, he asked: "In addition to the plain county, are there any other townships and counties where the people have been forcibly requisitioned?"

"There are also Youning County in the east and Huichang County in the west, both of which have 500 civilians conscripted, totaling more than 1,500 people. Pei Dong replied.

Fifteen hundred!

He Yi secretly wondered for the spiritual property of which place so many people were gathered in one place?

Is it the Northern Wilderness Snow Field, or the Dry Snow Forest, or is it some other uncultivated wilderness?

Also, if the laws in the prefecture and county clearly prohibit officials from cultivating, then Huyang Taishou's action will definitely block the news and prevent the Qi Sect or other cultivators from knowing.

It was a private, covert operation.

"If so, maybe you can plan ......" He Yi had a flash of inspiration in his mind and gave birth to a clever plan.
