Official historians recorded that in the winter of the Gengchen year, the capital was shaken, and the Yushan Mountain of Taiyuan sank seventeen feet into the ground, and the Chiyan Cave was eight hundred miles away, which was extremely magnificent. However, the cause of the earthquake was not recorded by the official historian. It was just a Spring and Autumn strokes in the back, which mentioned that Qin Mu, the grand priest of the Tiansheng Academy, was negligent in teaching, was fined by the emperor for two years, and his official position was reduced from the fourth rank to the fifth rank. .
However, according to the people in the palace, the emperor was woken up by the loud noise in the early morning of that day, and rushed to check. He saw that the explosion site was Yulong Lake. Countless red dragon carps in the lake were blown up, the lake surface was white, and Yulong Lake was bigger than usual. It was several times deeper, and it was several times deeper, and I was furious on the spot.
It is reported that the emperor was still injured in his hand, so he clamored to kill someone's head.
At that time, the emperor was wandering around the mountain with a knife in his hand, but he didn't find anyone, only the sleeping dragon unicorn and the box, so he guarded the dragon qilin with the knife until no one came, and then he stopped.
There are also rumors that a certain person fled for thousands of miles early in the morning, and at noon, the dragon qilin woke up riding a box and chased after him. It took two days and two nights to catch up.
There are also rumors that the emperor went to the barracks, wandered around the sun-shooting cannon for a while, and finally sighed: "The merit is greater than the demerit, and the crime does not deserve death. It is better to be degraded and punished." So he put down the sword, turned and left.
Of course, these things are all rumors and cannot be confirmed. The official historians of the imperial court do not record these unfounded rumors.
More than ten days later, Qin Mu sacrificed life and death in Xianglong City, Daxu. A long river spanned the void, and Xianglong City became a place connecting Fengdu, and it was very lively for a while.
Xianglong City was originally the property of the Qin family, and most of the shops in the city were Tianshengjiao shops, which transported the goods from Yankang to sell to Daxu, and shipped the goods from Daxu to sell to Yankang.
This place is the first stop to enter the Great Ruins, and all the supernatural beings who entered the Great Ruins choose to settle here. These days, the number of supernatural beings in Xianglong City has increased sharply, and the price of goods has soared. Si Yunxiang and Hu Ling'er are also very happy.
A few days later, officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs came to Daxu and said they wanted to collect taxes, but Qin Mu turned them back and cried to Emperor Yanfeng. Emperor Yanfeng couldn't laugh or cry: "Daxu is not in the territory of Yankang. If you go to collect taxes, he will give me face if he doesn't kill you. According to their Daxu rules, they will kill your head. Don't mess around, Daxu is not us The place."
"Your Majesty, Da Qin is too fierce to make money from wine sacrifices. The business of Xianglong City alone is the big one!"
Hubu Shangshu protested: "And this time, Your Majesty will pave the road to connect Xitu and Yankang. The road will pass through Daxu and Xianglong City! Qin Dajiu plans two roads, both of which pass through Xianglong City! Xianglong The city will surely become the most important town in the Great Ruins, and the richest in the world! I think that the great wine sacrifice must have selfish intentions, borrowing money from the imperial court to pave the way for my hometown!"
Emperor Yanfeng was helpless, looked at him deeply, and said meaningfully: "Xitu was brought down by him, he saved an unknown amount of military pay, and saved an unknown number of soldiers from dying in battle."
Hubu Shangshu said: "But most of the supernatural beings who go to Xianglong City to practice are from my Yankang. If they spend money there and don't collect taxes, it will become a country within a country, and my money in Yankang will definitely be lost! If things go on like this , how about it? I, Yankang, will have no money to use!"
Emperor Yanfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Taoist Yuanfeng, you are a master of arithmetic from Taoism, why don't you understand?"
The Secretary of the Household Department was puzzled: "My minister is dull, please enlighten me."
Emperor Yanfeng smiled and said: "The supernatural beings who went to Xianglong City used my Yankang's Dafeng coins. If you want to spend this money, you have to buy my Yankang's things, or you have to go back to Yankang. "
Hubu Shangshu frowned: "If Dafeng coins are circulating in Daxu, why don't they return to Yankang?"
Emperor Yanfeng smiled and said: "If Dafeng coins can replace gold and silver property and circulate in Daxu, that would be even better! Because the imperial court mints coins, Daxu does not have the right to mint coins. In this way, wouldn't the imperial court control Didn’t the imperial court decide how much wealth there was in Daxu? When Dafeng coins replace gold and silver, the imperial court can use Dafeng coins to buy mines and rivers in Daxu, and use Dafeng coins to buy gold and silver. Coin unification of the great market is just around the corner!"
Hubu Shangshu was dumbfounded.
Emperor Yanfeng threw the memorial aside, stood up, and looked out, with far-sighted eyes: "It doesn't cost a single soldier, just use Dafeng coins, you can get the rich land of Daxu, what is this? A good deal? You, you are still too brainy, thinking that the loss of Yankang's money to the Daxu is a bad thing, but you don't know that using money to unify is the best way to attack. The way to govern the country does not need to care about the gains and losses of the baht, it depends on From a distance, look at decades and hundreds of years later. The big sacrifice wine needs to make money, and those are just small money, and I want to make money, and what I earn is the country, without bloodshed, economics and economics!"
Hubu Shangshu completely admired: "Your Majesty's words can be a warning for future generations."
In Xianglong City, Qin Mu looked at the hustle and bustle of supernatural beings coming and going in the city, and the caravans were also in an endless stream. The supernatural beings and caravans of Yankang Kingdom made Xianglong City even more lively.
"If the national teacher led the goddesses of the Western Lands to pave the road here, and opened up the Western Lands and Yankang, the people of Daxu would not be so miserable."
Qin Mu figured it out, more than a month later, Yankang Guoshi led the people from the Tiangong Hall of the Ministry of Industry to the West Land, and it should have almost turned the desert into an oasis. Using the Azure Dragon Ball, one of the four great spiritual treasures of the West Land, can do this thing.
And opening rivers to divert water from snow-capped mountains into the desert can make the vegetation dense.
If Tiangongtang can cut open the mountains in the southern part of the desert and attract the clouds from the South China Sea to the north, the water source in the desert will be continuous, and there will be no need to worry about precipitation and snowfall.
That is to say, after a few years, the flame desert will become history.
When the road is paved, Xitu, Daxu and Yankang are connected, the road is unimpeded, business exchanges, and commercial towns and cities are set up along the way of Daxu, and the people of Daxu will be rich because of this.
"Miraculous Doctor Qin, I heard that you are from Daxu."
Xing An stood behind him, interrupted his thoughts, and said: "You are from Daxu, but you brought the power of Yankang into Daxu, you are the sinner of Daxu."
"There is no country in the Great Ruins, how can there be a sinner?"
Qin Mu was puzzled, and said: "The people of Daxu have always relied on mountains to eat mountains and rivers, and there is no ruler here. Even if Yankang Kingdom came, Yankang people are also people of Daxu. The rules of the Great Ruins. Here, the rules of the Great Ruins are more effective than the emperor's laws."
Xing An shook his head: "I haven't met Emperor Yanfeng much, but I can also see his great talent and great strategy. In the future, he will definitely dominate the Great Ruins. When the soldiers come to the city at that time, it will be too late for you to regret."
Qin Mu smiled and said, "If the emperor uses troops against Daxu, then he won't be on the throne for long. You should know how terrifying Daxu is. These stone statues..."
Pointing to the temples in Xianglong City, he said leisurely: "They are waiting for the call of resurrection. They resurrected and turned the world upside down. Yankang will never be the master of this land. There are people."
His eyes flickered, and he said with a smile: "I drove the Minister of the Household Department away. The emperor didn't look for my bad luck. I know his plan clearly. It's just that his thoughts are all fantasy. There is this possibility, otherwise it will be like a flower in a mirror and a moon in the water. I am going to visit the grave, will Senior Brother Xing An also come with me?"
Xing An looked at the box running over with several legs, then looked back, and said, "I will go wherever you go. I will not leave you until I find the person I want to find."
Qin Mu frowned, and said, "I'll go to the grave after your matter is resolved."
The address of the Human Emperor's Palace is a secret, only known to the human emperors of all generations. Xing An is by his side, preventing him from going to the Human Emperor's Palace. To a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Moreover, who knows if Xing An will dig out the bones of the emperors of all ages for collection
More than ten days later, the imperial court, Tianshengjiao, Daomen, Daleiyin Temple and other places found the information of people born on the eighth day of the ugly month of the twelfth lunar month in the Jiazi year. The number of people born at that time reached 30,000.
The official from the household department who sent the data said: "There are also data on grasslands, ice fields, and western lands, and the statistics have not been completed yet."
Xing An looked at the 30,000-person file, and couldn't help feeling like a big head. After a while, he said: "The person I'm looking for is a man, classify the men and women inside."
The officials of the household department immediately ordered to go down, and when the arrangement was completed, they said: "There are seven thousand men, and only eight thousand of them are still alive, and many of them died in wars and disasters."
After a while, Xing An said: "Those who are not supernatural powers will be eliminated."
The officials of the household department sent an order to the officials of the household department to sort out the information and report back: "there are four hundred people with supernatural powers left."
Xing An was silent for a moment, and said: "Check again whether these four hundred people had visions when they were born, and they were born wearing jade pendants."
Officials from the household department ordered an investigation into the 400 people.
Seeing this, Qin Mu couldn't help being suspicious, and said in his heart: "Every time Xing An gives an order, he hesitates for a moment, it doesn't seem like he gave the order on his own initiative, but obeys the orders of others. That's right, Xing An jumped off the Naihe Bridge in Fengdu , living in Youdu, Youdu is much more dangerous than Fengdu, and there are many monsters full of resentment. How did he come back from Youdu? Could it be... "
His eyes flickered, and a gate to the sky suddenly appeared behind him. This gate was formed, and Qin Mu turned into a snake-headed human body, and opened a vertical eye between his brows, looking at Xing An.
Xing An immediately noticed it, and when he looked back, the divine light in his eyes blocked his gaze, and he said calmly: "Master Qin, there are some things that you should not know."
Qin Mu laughed loudly, and dissipated the Zhen Xingjun form, but he was shocked inexplicably. Just now, he had used Zhen Xingjun's divine eyes when Xing An was unprepared, and saw a terrible monster hidden in Xing An's treasure of life and death. Eye!
Just now, that terrifying eye also noticed his gaze, and immediately looked at him, but Xing An cut off the sight of the two of them!
At this time, an official from the household department came to report, saying: "I have not found any supernatural beings who were born wearing jade pendants. People born with jade pendants are myths and legends after all."
"That man was not born with jade in his mouth."
Xing An was silent for a moment, took out a picture, and said, "That jade pendant is used to suppress his demonic nature. This is the pattern on the jade pendant. Since we can't find the supernatural being born at that time, let's take the jade pendant with the pattern on it." Hang it out and post it in every city and county to find out the whereabouts of this jade pendant! Divine doctor Qin, you order people to copy this picture in thousands of copies!"
Qin Mu took the picture and his eyes fell on the jade pendant pattern in the picture.
"Doctor Qin has seen this kind of jade pendant?" Seeing that he was looking at it carefully, Xing An asked.
Qin Mu shook his head: "I've never seen it before."
Xing An's eyes flickered, he took out a mirror, and suddenly said: "I forgot to ask, how old is Doctor Qin?"
