Chapter 112: Sharpening the sword for decades shows its edge today
Difu, Weiyuan Hou's study.
There is not only a forbidden magic circle in the study, but also a guard room in the distance, as long as there is a sound, dozens of guards can be summoned!
Outside the study is to imitate the world, built a rockery and a garden, it is very open, sit and look out, the landscape and grass are like a picture, making people feel refreshed and happy! Such a scene is rare in a desolate underworld!
The furnishings of the study are simple and generous, in order to entertain the ministers, there is a coffee table and a small pier, located in the east window!
As for how this study came about, it should start with Xu Yang coming back from the human world, because he helped the crown prince Yang Zhao ascend the throne, and was recognized by the Ming Luck True Dragon of the Human World, and the Heavenly Dao rewarded countless merits, Xu Yang has become the Marquis of Weiyuan of the Difu by virtue of his merits, and his status is second only to the Ten Palaces of Yama!
As for the ministers who followed him, they naturally rose and were promoted, and the generals were still headed by Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, but the Wenchen became dominated by Zhuge Wolong, Tu Yuantu, and Gao Jin, in addition to Xu Yang also set up an inspection department in the yang world, which was in charge of all the yang land, mountain gods, city gods, and full-time spying on military intelligence! At present, the inspection department is headed by Cui Yu, Tu Xiaoyan, and Lu Ran is the deputy!
In addition, in the year of the ghost pawns, plus the previous 40,000 ghost pawns, Xu Yang recruited 60,000 ghost pawns for a total of 100,000! At present, he has full authority to make friends with Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, and he is ready to go out to the yang world at any time to take back the ghost and god positions and mortal beliefs occupied by the Taoist sect!
In the yang world, with the accession of the crown prince Yang Zhao, although everything is changing in a favorable way, there are still a very few powerful families who rebel with the support of Taoist schools with ulterior motives. And because these families were strong and strong in the Taiping years, they accumulated a lot of grain, grass and weapons, so their power at the beginning far exceeded that of the rebel army in the north, not only occupied the county seat, but even three forces occupied a county, and all of them established themselves as kings, respectively, the Wu family of Pingyang County of the Wanxing Palace, and established themselves as the king of Pingyang!
Sanchuan County of the Eternal Life Palace, the Zheng family, and the king of Sanchuan stand on their own!
Xuanhuamen's Elephant County, the Zhou family, self-established Elephant King!
In the following months, although the southern form was still not optimistic, it still stopped the possibility of collapse under the conquest of Yang Zhao's new army!
At this time, the underworld, the Hou Mansion study.
On the copy of the approval document, countless scrolls and texts are stacked. Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Tu Yuantu are waiting on the side!
In addition, there are Yang Wen and Yang Wu standing on the side, these two people have recently been transferred to the Hou Mansion to serve as the commander of the personal guard!
Xu Yang was holding a pen, dipped it in thick ink, and put the pen on rice paper, writing two lines of words.
"Life is a hero, death is also a ghost. So far, I think of Xiang Yu and refuse to cross Jiangdong. ”!
The three of them saw it, and they all applauded, especially Tu Yuantu looked at it and said: "Master Hou, this handwriting is dignified and resolute, majestic, and awe-inspiring...... It's really hard for the old minister to believe. ”
Xu Yang smiled slightly and said, "Patriarch Tu is falsely praised, my handwriting is not so good." ”
And at this time, not far away, a sound of the piano came faintly through the layers of gardens.
Xu Yang was stunned, listened to it, and said with a smile: "This is Xiaoyan's piano sound, right?
At this time, a person hurriedly came in and said, "Master Hou, there is a secret letter." ”
"Oh?"
Xu Yang took a look, frowned, and showed it to the three of them: "You take a look." ”
Tu Yuantu was just looking at it at first, but when he looked at it, he immediately locked his eyebrows, his face was solemn, and he asked, "What kind of secret letter is this?"
"Oh, this is my latest inspection department, the purpose is to probe the actions of the major forces in the yang realm, you all know that the yang world is getting more and more chaotic!
Now these secret letters from the Inspectorate are ...... What do you think?"
It took a while for the three of them to react, and Tu Yuantu spoke first: "Master Hou, these eight major sects have begun to shrink the Dao soldiers in various places, is it for us? Could it be that this Taixuanmen joined the Ming army and acted here?"
Xu Yang listened, shook his head and said: "This is not very likely, because the power of the Taixuanmen is that even the eight sects together cannot fight against it! So although they secretly supported the rebel army, now with the addition of the Taixuanmen, the fact that the rebel army has been wiped out in large numbers is the best example, I guess it is because these sects have withdrawn their manpower! Now the power is shrinking at this time, I am afraid that it is an action to deal with other forces similar to them!"
And how many forces are there in the daimyo that are worth their shrinking forces?
Taixuanmen is counted as one, so it can't be this reason! Then only the Ghost Emperor of Bishan and our newly born underworld are left!
And how many years have the Ghost Emperor and the Eight Great Dao Sect been safe and sound?So I think the biggest possibility is our underworld, what do you think of the situation?"
Several people glanced at each other, and they all felt incredible, you must know that the news of their birth in the underworld is still being concealed, it shouldn't be aimed at them, right? But what Xu Yang said is also right, now only they are qualified to be treated like this by the Eighth Great Dao Sect!
Just when a few people were still discussing, the guards came to report, saying that Zhuge Wolong was coming, and several people hurriedly invited Zhuge Wolong in, this is now not only the head of Wenchen but also Xu Yang's teacher, so it is worth a big gift for several people!
As soon as Zhuge Wolong came, he smiled at Xu Yang and said, "I really made you right, this time the Eight Great Dao Sect is shrinking its forces to form a coalition to conquer several City God Domains that we have set up in the Yang Realm!"
The purpose is to deter our underworld!"
When everyone heard this, Xu Yang had not yet spoken, and Yang Wu, who was following Gao Shun, became angry: "Bastard, how can this be true! Land Mountain God Chenghuang, these gods were originally in the hands of our underworld, but now they have been taken back by us, and they still think they are their own?
Later, when Yang Wenyi pulled his sleeves, he remembered that he seemed to be too unreasonable, so he couldn't help but stop talking, looked at Xu Yang and said, "Master Hou, my subordinates were excited just now!"
Xu Yang and a few others looked at it, they all laughed, among which Xu Yang said: "You are not wrong, this is the reason, our underworld has been in charge of the underworld for tens of thousands of years, and for other reasons, Taoism has been in charge for a few years, and now we are back as the master, and people don't give it, and now they still use this as a reason to crusade against our underworld?
So I decided to form an army of all kinds to attack them first and destroy their coalition army before they were ready!"
When several people on the field heard this, they were all shocked in their hearts and shouted: "No!"
