I Am Immortal In The Cultivation World
Chapter 11 Calming the World
The beginning of the new year.
The new emperor ascended the throne and Jianyuan Hongchang.
Feng Li Wu was appointed as the general protecting the country, and thoroughly investigated the case of Long Ni.
The family was ransacked and the family was wiped out, and blood flowed like rivers.
Dongcheng Fang City has ten houses and nine empty houses, and the officials in the early court were less than half, and finally got a total of 170 million taels of gold and silver.
Emperor Hongchang issued an edict that Fengyang Kingdom would not pay food for five years.
In June of the same year.
Li Wuguan paid homage to the Marshal of the Army and Horse, and led the army to march north.
Smash the rebels from all walks of life, pacify the six northern states, and send troops south.
...
Shenjing.
Zhang house.
Funeral flags were placed at the door, a mourning shed was built in the courtyard, and white cloth banners were hung on the walls.
At a glance, it was white and miserable.
Zhou Yi walked into the spirit shed, offered three sticks of incense to Zhang Zhou, kneeled three times and worshiped three times to complete the sacrifice.
The filial son Zhang Jin returned the gift and kowtowed, and Zhou Yi quickly helped him up.
"Brother Jin, I'm sorry for the change."
Zhang Zhou had already retired from the sky prison last year, and Zhang Jin took over the position of dispatcher. He drank medicine for more than half a year, but he couldn't survive this winter after all.
The lifespan of the prison guards in the sky prison is not too long. Zhang Zhou is considered a long life if he lived to fifty-four, and Zhou's father died before he was forty.
Scientifically speaking, working in a dark and humid environment all year round, and being in contact with various criminals, can be called the darkest side of society, causing great pressure on the body and mind, so premature aging and short life.
However, people think that they have suffered retribution. They have done too many bad things on weekdays, which has damaged their virtues and shortened their lives. Even many jailers think so!
Zhou Yi comforted him a few times, and the person in charge invited him to rest in the yard next to him.
"You came so late, boy, did you go to Chunfeng Building again yesterday?" Captain Niu sat with a big horse and a golden sword, and there were servants on the left and right to serve the tea.
"Uncle Niu's temper is getting worse, are you planning to retire?"
Zhou Yi is now thirty-two years old, and he has no choice but to reach middle age. A layer of secret yellow wax was applied on his face, and he looks about forty years old, which is in line with the premature aging characteristics of prison guards.
"Master Zheng found Sierra the position of Commander of the Forbidden Army. With such a great kindness, we can no longer occupy the latrine."
Captain Niu was talking about his fourth son. The first three were good at studying, but they didn't want to work in the prison.
After all, he is a wealthy son, and no one wants to hang out in a dirty and smelly place. Captain Niu has been worrying about this a lot in recent years, and now he has replaced the commander of the imperial army with the captain.
The left and right are all in the sky prison system, and the relationship run by the Niu family can still be used, which is the best of both worlds.
Five years ago, as Zhou Yi expected, the imperial court parachuted Zheng Gaoyuan into prison.
As soon as Zheng Siyu came in, he made drastic reforms and punished corruption. When Jin Yiwei arrested someone, he didn't need to change places, he just found an empty cell and locked him up.
Most of the old department of the former jailer was destroyed, and Niu Xiaowei took the lead in joining Zheng Siyu's command, and he was cruel to his brothers and colleagues.
Of course, no matter how turbulent it is, it will not affect the jailer who delivers the food!
"Then congratulations, Uncle Niu."
Zhou Yi looked at Lieutenant Niu's gray hair, with a hint of lifelessness in his brows. Once he retreated, he didn't know how many years he would last.
The beloved son of the parents has a far-reaching plan for it.
The foundation of the Niu family is in the sky prison. Once the connections that have been established for hundreds of years are abandoned, how can they guarantee such a large family business, relying on those three dude brothers who can't even pass the exam?
Zhou Yi stood aside and watched how many high-ranking officials were imprisoned in the prison.
If a big family attacks from the outside, it won't be able to fall for a while. Most of them will decay from the inside first, and they will collapse when the wind blows!
Colleagues and friends get together to chat, and the topic will eventually turn to the battlefield of counter-insurgency, which has been a major event in Fengyang Kingdom in the past five years.
The generalissimo settled north for two years, and it has been more than three years since he sent his troops to the south. The battle was very fierce. The residence newspaper often published that the generalissimo had defeated tens of thousands of enemies.
Jailer Ye Cheng laughed and said, "The number of enemies destroyed reported by the imperial court is three to four million in total. The southern rebels have such a large army, why don't they just surround Shenjing?"
Zhou Yi reminded: "Brother Ye be careful, let the Li family hear this, you should find a cell by yourself."
Now the Li family's prestige in Fengyang country is even higher than that of Long Xiang back then. After all, no matter how powerful the civil servants are, they can't compare with the military officers who command hundreds of thousands of troops.
There have been rumors in the market for a long time that the south has been uncertain for three years, and it is Li Wu who supports the bandits to respect himself!
"You know what a fart!"
Colonel Niu scolded: "There are not only rebels in the south. His Majesty said that the morale of the rebels in the north has collapsed because they have not paid food for five years. It is different in the south, where the land rent is not less than a penny."
Among the Zhang family's condolence crowd, Niu Xiaowei was already the top one, and the people around heard this and came over one after another.
"Who dares to disobey the government's decree?"
"Humph!"
Captain Niu didn't continue talking, and changed the topic: "Has Yi boy practiced to the viscera? Your qi and blood have begun to decline at this age, and it will become more and more difficult in the future."
"It will be a few more years."
Zhou Yi shook his head, another five years had passed, and his muscles and bones had been tempered to a great degree, but refining viscera with qi and blood was a bottleneck.
Skin membrane, tendons and bones belong to hard work, and it can be achieved through long-term training. Refining the viscera and washing the marrow are soft skills, and it must not be forced. Many people forcibly temper the viscera, and the five viscera will burst and bleed directly.
"You've been smart all your life, but you've become confused after all. All your money has been thrown into martial arts and Goulan, and you haven't even got a marriage. Who will support you when you're old?"
Niu Xiaowei seemed to have found the venue, wanted to laugh out loud, but felt that the occasion was inappropriate.
In the past few years, I have consulted Zhou Yi frequently, and every time Captain Niu has the illusion, as if he is a stupid and reckless man.
"What if one day, you break through the innate master?"
Zhou Yi said it seriously, and the people present only thought he was joking.
The two masters identified by Fengyang Kingdom today are Marshal Li Wu, and the other is the commander of the rebel army in the south who is known as the King of Heaven.
At this time.
Someone came in in a hurry and said loudly.
"Just now someone saw the soldiers who reported the victory and said that the Generalissimo destroyed the main force of the rebels and captured the two heavenly kings alive!"
Everyone was in an uproar.
The news of the good news was deliberately publicized by the imperial court, and soon spread throughout Shenjing.
...
Hongchang five years.
September 21st.
Today is the day when the Generalissimo returned to court, and the east gate of Shenjing was packed.
The imperial army stood on both sides of the road, and kept gathering the people backwards, leaving the road for the army to pass.
Zhou Yi asked for leave on purpose and took a seat by the window in a restaurant by the street early on.
When it was dark and far away, and I failed to see the demeanor of the innate master, today is just to make up for the regret.
At noon.
The ground shook, and the sound of horseshoes came.
The first to enter the city were four ranks of cavalry, with traces of swords and swords all over the black armor, with a murderous look.
"Everyone has the strength of the skin membrane. No wonder sweeping the north and the south is easy. Back then, the dog emperor searched the world, not only for alchemy and Taoism, but also secretly cultivated martial arts cavalry."
Zhou Yi recalled at this time that the dog emperor seemed to have happened a long time ago.
I can't remember the appearance of Long Xiang, the arrogant and domineering Young Master Long.
At the end of the cavalry was Grand Marshal Li Wu, who still looked like a young general in silver armor. He swept north and south in five years, his face was like a crown of jade, not even a trace of weather was left, just like a son-in-law who went out for a tour.
Young and handsome, powerful, outstanding, and powerful!
Such a character is like the protagonist in a storybook, and the people cheered when he just showed up.
Zhou Yi lowered his eyes: "The Xiantian Grandmaster is even more powerful than imagined. This is just an ordinary person, and the legendary fairy..."
Li Wu was followed by two prison cars, both of which were made of fine steel, with only their heads exposed.
One is an old man with white hair like frost, and the other is a Taoist with disheveled hair.
"Could this be the Yellow Heavenly King and the Cangtian King? It is said that they are two feet tall, with a hulking back, and eat three or five living people for each meal. How can they be so old and thin?"
"What do you know? The Heavenly King of Cang was once the leader of the Jiangnan martial arts alliance. He had four sects and eight sects under his command. This is the reason why there are so many masters in the rebel army." The man who spoke was dressed in black and had a sword on his waist. He was obviously a man from the Jianghu.
"If you become the leader of the martial arts alliance, how can you create a fart rebellion?"
"Who didn't want to rebel back then?"
"Brother, what is the origin of Huang Tianwang, I heard that he is the leader?"
"It is said that this person was originally a Taoist priest. Yemeng Yiren had to pass on the magic of immortality, and he could draw magic talismans and spread beans into soldiers. He is said to be the reincarnation of the immortal Huang Tiangong..." The man said to himself and shook his head.
This kind of mysterious and unpredictable statement is to brainwash the rebels, and nine out of ten are not credible.
In order to cheer up the hearts of the people, the imperial court also publicized the defeat of two or three million rebels!
...
the next day.
Zhou Yi was on duty in the sky prison, and he could see the black knight on duty from a distance.
Anyone who went in had to be searched, and then from Zhou Yi, daggers, sleeve arrows, short crossbows, unknown poisonous powder, and black pills were found...
"This is really for self-defense!"
Zhou Yi repeatedly explained that in the end it was Zheng Siyu who came forward and was put into the prison.
"My lord, what's going on?"
Zheng Siyu said: "The two rebel leaders, Cang and Huang, have been imprisoned in the sky prison, and the Grand Marshal sent three thousand Xuanjia troops to guard them."
"Why don't you go to the Imperial Prison, it's much stricter there!"
Zhou Yi frowned slightly, Cang and Huang were extraordinary.
A martial arts leader, a Taoist stranger, can gather troops and horses and raise the flag to rebel if he escapes.
Zheng Siyu said quietly: "You guys deliver the food well, what do you care about so much, if you really escape, can you still be responsible?"
"Thank you for your advice, my lord."
Zhou Yi was too lazy to think about the court struggle, but was rather interested in Cang and Huang.
There are also Xuanjia troops on duty in the sky prison, with one post at five steps and one sentry at ten steps, and there are also masters secretly watching.
Prison No. 1.
Zhou Yi opened the prison door and saw King Cang Tian up close.
The fine-steel torture frame made overnight, the thigh-thick iron locks and chains, bound the limbs and neck of the King of Heaven to death.
The Xuanjia army stared at the door, Zhou Yi scooped up the rice silently, and fed it to the mouth of the Heavenly King.
"Boy, the internal qi is pure and pure. It seems to be inherited from the Taoist school, but it's a pity that you can't practice it until you die. The old man taught you a supreme magic skill, which can be congenital in ten years. Do you want to learn it?"
An old voice came from Zhou Yi's ear, and he glanced at the Xuanjia Army outside the door, but there was no movement at all.
"This sound transmission into secrets is the old man's unique secret skill. Don't talk about these little bastards, Li Wu would never want to hear it."
Zhou Yi nodded slightly and listened quietly to the following.
"The inner qi is like a whirl, passing through the Zhongfu, passing through the cloud gate...the qi is released from the body."
Another sound came into the ears, but it was not some supernatural skill, but the technique of sound transmission into secrets.
Zhou Yi mobilized the inner qi in his dantian, followed what Cangtian Wang said, and tried to cough twice.
"Ahem!"
The Xuanjia army at the door did not respond, still staring at Zhou Yi and feeding him.
After half a bucket of rice was fed in, Zhou Yi took the bucket and left, ignoring the Heavenly King who kept sending voices repeatedly.
"You little thief, how dare you bully this old man!"
