Chapter 52: Handan Dynasty
In the east of Dazhao, outside the capital of Handan.
On top of an incomparably steep mountain range, stands a huge and majestic cemetery.
This is the royal mausoleum of Da Zhao, where the emperors of the Great Zhao dynasties were buried after their deaths, and it is also the place where the dragon veins of the Great Zhao converge.
The two disciples, Qing Xing and Qing Qiu, were waiting in the woods in front of the royal mausoleum at the moment, waiting for the arrival of their uncle and ancestor.
Soon, two fast horses galloped in.
"Qing Xing (Qing Qiu) has seen Uncle Shi!" The two of them saw the young man in front clearly and saluted respectfully.
Mo Wudao smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you two look a lot fatter, although this mortal fireworks are good, you can't be too greedy!"
Qingxing and Qingqiu touched each other's noses awkwardly, the two of them were indeed a little addicted these days.
Mo Wudao's cultivation did not exceed the two of them, but his realm was much higher.
Seeing that the Dao hearts of the two of them had also suffered from the influence of the Red Dust Barrier, he frowned and said, "Later, they will each seal and cultivate, paste a triple gravity talisman, run back to the city, lose weight!"
"Yes!" Qingxing and Qingqiu's faces instantly collapsed.
Jiang Jingyun, a young man who had not been able to ride a horse for a long time behind him, also stepped forward at this time, and when he saw the two brothers with extraordinary temperaments, he was extremely depressed by Uncle Shi's words, and he couldn't help but sigh with empathy.
"Uncle Shi, who is this child?" Qingxing and Qingqiu also noticed this calm and immature young man.
"His name is Jiang Jingyun, according to his seniority, you should call him uncle, but he hasn't started yet, so let's be your junior brother first!"
"Uncle Shi?"
The two were stunned, could it be that this kid is a disciple of Shi Shuzu, so it can't be underestimated.
"Jing Yun, come here, these two are disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect, your two senior brothers. β
The three of them got to know each other, Qingxing and Qingqiu are both people with gentle personalities, and they don't look down on Jiang Jingyun because of their high cultivation.
This made me feel a little warmth again after coming out of the grief of bereavement.
"Uncle Shi, why did you come to this royal cemetery?" several people stood in front of the majestic Dazhao Royal Mausoleum, and Qing Xing asked curiously.
From the point of view of Shi Shuzu's itinerary, it should be directly from the west gate into Handan City, why not enter the city, but detour to the east, to the royal mausoleum thirteen miles east of Handan City.
"This is where the dragon vein of Da Zhao is located, so naturally I want to take a look at the luck of this Da Zhao. β
Mo Wudao stood on the horse, his fingers flew, pinched and chanted a mantra, and then wiped his eyes, a golden light flashed in his deep eyes, and he raised his eyes and looked into the royal mausoleum.
"Exploring the dragon and finding the cave?"
Qing Xing and Qing Qiu glanced at each other, this kind of mysterious spell, the two of them had only heard of it, but they had never seen it.
Mo Wudao took out a piece of jade slip from the ring, threw it to Qingqiu without turning his head, and said: "It's not a high-level spell, you two Yuan Shen are already stable, and you can barely practice." β
After speaking, he didn't pay attention to it, but continued to observe the dragon vein feng shui of the Great Zhao royal family.
Qing Xing and Qing Qiu immediately probed their divine sense into the jade slip, and after a while, they also learned the same pinch technique, wiped their eyes, and looked at the mountain range in front of them.
Jiang Jingyun was left alone in the back, envious and jealous, and stared dryly.
"The mountain dragon gathers, the water dragon exhales, the person who chose the site to build the garden must also be a feng shui talent, and the strength of Da Zhao's luck is only comparable Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·to the Yunqin Empire."
"However, in this majestic imperial aura, there are four dragon-shaped clouds entangled, except for the one of His Majesty the Emperor, the true dragon prince, it is not yet clear!"
Mo Wudao sighed, turned his head and said, "The eight sons are vying for the throne, but in fact, it's just three kings vying for the throne!"
Although Qing Xing and Qing Qiu saw the mysterious clouds that lingered, they didn't see much difference, and when they heard Mo Wudao's explanation, Qing Qiu suddenly said: "Indeed, among the eight princes, the ones who have the best chance to ascend to the throne now are actually only the second prince, the third prince and the fifth prince. β
"Of the several princes supported by the disciples of several elders, only the second prince still has the basic ability to compete for the throne, and the other princes have gradually been alienated from the core of power, and they don't know who the person behind this is so powerful!" Qing Xing added.
Mo Wudao was silent for a moment, sneered and said, "Except for our critically ill majesty, who else has such great ability!"
Qing Xing and Qing Qiu were taken aback, and Qing Xing said with a look of disbelief: "Impossible, right?"
His Majesty the old emperor, now the sick man is generally bedridden every day, taking medicine in the harem to continue his life, and the government is jointly managed by the cabinet prime minister.
Now, according to Mo Wudao, he is controlling the direction of the heir behind the scenes.
"The old emperor has reigned for thirty years, and he has governed the second largest empire on the continent so well, do you think he will not be able to control the situation now when he is lying in a hospital bed?"
Mo Wudao's eyes flickered, and he said in a low voice: "It seems that the battle for the throne of Da Zhao is different from that of Yan Guo, and who this throne is given depends on the old emperor." β
Qing Xing Qingqiu's ears and eyes were clear, and he naturally heard Mo Wudao's whispered words clearly.
Qingqiu sighed and said, "Then didn't we do useless work!"
"We're better, the same people under the elders seem to be even worse!" Qing Xing reacted, a little gloating.
"It's okay!"
Mo Wudao smiled again at the corner of his mouth, pointed to the invisible clouds in the cemetery, and explained the doubts to the two: "Have you seen it, the green qi looming in the clouds is the appearance of our monks' luck, although they failed to assist the people to ascend to the throne, but they also contributed a lot of luck." β
"It is said that the purpose of going down the mountain is to share the power of the luck of the king, but the way of heaven is fair, and the monks involved will also make up for their own luck into this secular empire. β
Speaking of this, Mo Wudao felt that this Heavenly Dao was fair, but he felt as if everyone was put together by this Heavenly Dao!
"Entering the WTO is really not as simple as it seems!"
sighed, which made several people accompanying him look puzzled, Qingxing and Qingqiu are better, Jiang Jingyun is really in the clouds, he knows these words, but why can't he understand them together.
"Uncle Shi, what should we do next?"
"Go back to the city, and then meet His Majesty the Emperor!" Mo Wudao pulled the reins and slapped his horse forward, followed by Jiang Jingyun.
Qingxing Qingqiu just wanted to get on the horse, but he heard the voice of his uncle in front of him.
"Forgot what I said, you two need to lose weight!"
The faces of the two of them collapsed, so they had to let go of the reins, seal all the cultivation, and close the two gravity talismans, their bodies instantly shortened by half a section, and they took difficult steps and chased away.
The two horses were also quite spiritual, and they did not run casually, but followed the two honestly.
Suddenly it turned into a horse chasing people and running, which is very funny!
When they arrived in Handan City, Qingxing and Qingqiu were as tired as two dead dogs, unable to move a finger.
Triple gravity talisman, relying on physical strength alone, and keeping up with the extremely fast Shi Shuzu, the two of them really regretted it.
I regret that I am too relaxed in the mortal world these days, otherwise I wouldn't have to suffer like this!
Handan City is the secular headquarters of Tianji Hall, and naturally there are a lot of real estate.
Lingyan Pavilion, the largest manor mansion that non-royal family members can own, is the property of Tianji Hall.
Qingxing and Qingqiu live here.
The major family forces with a relatively long history in Handan City naturally paid a lot of attention to Lingyan Pavilion.
The appearance of Mo Wudao and Jiang Jingyun, as well as the respectful attitude of the people from Lingyan Pavilion towards Mo Wudao, immediately attracted the attention of many well-intentioned people.
Soon, many people came to the door that night, but Mo Wudao was interested in making peace with these mortals now, and he didn't pay attention to it, and these things were completely handed over to the original pavilion master of Lingyan Pavilion.
The Pavilion Master of Lingyan Pavilion is also the head of the mortal world of Tianji Hall, and now he has become a housekeeper, a disciple who has been in the field for thirty years, shrewd and capable, and can cope with social interactions and entertainment.
Mo Wudao is busy looking for a place to establish a science and technology park at the moment!
The intelligent Ji Aya'er and Mo Wudao's Yuan Shen coexist in symbiosis, but at present, they can't exist too far away from Mo Wudao.
Although it is possible to build a communication base station to transmit data, the base station that can accommodate the amount of data of Aya'er is at least a product of the fourth industrial revolution.
Now the intelligent Ji Aya'er can only leave Mo Wudao's existence through Mo Wudao's natal magic weapon and parasitic on the Star Trace Sword.
But the distance of the Star Scar Sword from his body also depends on Mo Wudao's Yuan Shen strength.
The farthest Yuan Ying Peak can only sense and control the distance of the Star Scar Sword from the body fifty miles, so if Mo Wudao's body stays in Handan City, this science and technology park must be built within fifty miles.
To build such a huge science and technology park, it should not be too far from Handan City, and it should not be too eye-catching, so the choice of this location is a little difficult.
Finally, after several tosses, a river valley plain was selected about forty-five miles north of the city!
There are steep mountains on three sides, and there is only one exit to the south, so if you block the south gate, you can build a lot of construction inside without being seen by outsiders.
Early the next morning, Mo Wudao took Qingqiu to this river valley and personally investigated it, and he was quite satisfied.
"Uncle Shi, there are more than a dozen families below, what should these people do?" Qingqiu pointed to the small courtyard of the farmhouse where the smoke was rising below.
"Congratulations, they're going to be developed!"
Mo Wudao smiled and said, "You can do this matter, and each family will subsidize some silver taels and let them move out on the same day." β
"What if they don't leave?"
"Don't go, don't go, it's because the silver is not enough, give them more, anyway, Lingyan Pavilion is not bad for money. β
Mo Wudao pouted indifferently!
The richest thing in Da Zhao is not the treasury, the richest is the Lingyan Pavilion, the inheritance of nearly a thousand years, the money accumulated by means of collecting wealth in the cultivation realm, it is really just a number, meaningless.
The first batch of civilians on the Tianlan Continent who became rich due to demolition and relocation are about to be born!
Mo Wudao stuffed the construction drawings of the external infrastructure project of the Science and Technology Park to Qingqiu, and he personally supervised it, and the manpower and material resources of Lingyan Pavilion were mobilized by him.
Although Qingqiu didn't know exactly what this uncle was going to do, he still went down seriously to carry it out!
Buy the land, hire the craftsmen!
As long as there is enough money and influence is big enough, everything can be done quickly!
In the afternoon, countless craftsmen and coolies and various materials were loaded and transported to the valley outside the city, and the farmers in the valley also moved their families from their homes.
It's not that they don't read the roots, they give too much silver!
