The Collection of The End

——Feng Shen——

Looking south to Buzhou, Xiadu pours out the wine.

"Hmm...it doesn't seem like there's any 'I wish we all would die' vibe."

Huanglong transformed into the image he once used - the golden dragon that carried Ji Xuanyuan to the heaven, hidden in the clouds high in the sky, overlooking the bustling and noisy city.

Its tallest and most conspicuous building is the extremely dazzling royal palace in the north of the city, which seems to be built of gold and precious stones. The surrounding dark-colored houses spread out like water, and are made of stone by those with higher status in the city. Houses made of metal and a small amount of precious stones, and further outward, there are various wooden houses and adobe houses.

This approach of "what kind of status gets what kind of treatment" coincides with the concept of teaching. Of course, this does not apply to buildings such as military camps, workshops, shops, markets, etc. where superiority and inferiority cannot be easily distinguished. this column.

Previously, the task given to him by Taoist Ran Deng was to "find out why King Xia was cursed and swore that he was willing to 'die with both of them', and if possible, solve the matter."

This is an obvious care taken taking into account his strength. It was also the case several times before. If the hereditary monarch of the Xia Dynasty failed to be a king and was ousted by his relatives and established a new one, Huanglong Zhenren would be sent to intimidate those The demon is ready to take advantage of the chaos of the human race.

Perhaps other Yashenghui thought that Chanjiao was a dynasty in the human world that they only paid attention to after "Kong Jia obeyed the Emperor of Heaven", but they also didn't think about it, who carried the first "King of Humans" to heaven in the first place?

When "kings" and "subjects" appear in the human world and are divided into three, six or nine levels, they are already destined to belong to Chanjiao.

Just like the free-range livestock and poultry of the human race at this time, they can live well by foraging for food on their own, but if they suddenly realize that they have an owner, and then take the initiative to beg for food, the human race in charge of breeding will not hesitate to sprinkle a few more handfuls of grain. .

However, this is limited to this. Humans who raise free-range chickens and ducks may care about whether they are sick or whether they have been taken away by wild beasts. But how many strong poultry among them are fighting for the leadership of a group of chickens and ducks? Attack other chickens and ducks to grab better territory? who cares.

Anyway, Yuanshi Tianzun doesn't care. Only Ran Deng and Taiyi Zhenren will pay a little attention to this Xia Dynasty. In other words, only Ran Deng and Taiyi Zhenren are busy refining magic weapons for their future apprentices, or for Xuan Xuan. They are all against Zhao Gongming.

This time when he came to inspect the human world, Huang Long asked the former Heavenly Emperor Donghuang Taiyi how to deal with an unexpected accident in the Xia Dynasty.

He replied: "The king will admit it! The king will allow it! The king will bear the whole world on his back!"

I didn't react at the time,

After asking "Who is Wang Lai?", he was chased around the Kunlun Mountains three times with an axe.

Really... wouldn't it be better to just let the King of Xia, who compares himself to the sun, decide?

Moreover, the nominal junior brother Yun Zhongzi was often active in the Xia Dynasty. If there was really any big problem, he would find it first.

To put it simply, if Buzhou's mountain falls, it will hit the higher one first.

After careful observation for a long time, Master Huanglong confirmed that there was nothing abnormal inside or outside the city. However, if you think about it, due to their short life span, the human race is often busy throughout their lives. Even if someone is dissatisfied with King Xia, it is impossible to spare a few people. Yue's free time was dedicated to scolding, so this time he seemed to have to blend into the crowd to investigate.

As soon as he thought about this, Master Huanglong spotted a long blank spot on the road leading to the dumplings, and fell straight down. In the process, he transformed into a human form and quickly transformed himself into what he had observed before. An old farmer's felt hat, a blacksmith's cloth shoes, a hunter's leather jacket, a businessman's fruit basket, and a featureless, somewhat cowardly face.

Perhaps other magical powers are not powerful, but as the "Zhonghuang Laojun" whose real body was once a puddle of mud, he is extremely good at the art of transformation.

However, the wild fruits in the fruit basket were just picked by him from the nearby deep forest, so there is no pressure to sell them. If they are bullied and snatched away by someone, they can just find out what went wrong with the Xia Dynasty.

However, after he wandered around the city for a long time and finally found a market to sell the fruit, there was only one tax official who collected him a sum of tax. Not only did he not encounter the situation he expected, he didn't even hear anything. Pass.

Before leaving the market, he quietly asked another vendor who was setting up a stall about the matter, and received a reply like "This city belongs to the king, who dares to do that? Do you want to risk your life?"

Afterwards, the confused Huang Longzhen took the money from selling the fruit and wandered around the city. He made repeated lies and inquiries, and finally came to a conclusion.

Everything in the Xia Dynasty, whether people or things, belongs to King Sigui. Only he can rob - or expropriate. Anyone who dares to bully others secretly, enrich his own pockets, or use power for personal gain will be killed without a word.

There was widespread dissatisfaction in the city with a guy named "Zhao Liang" because he kept giving Sigui ideas for pleasure in order to get rewards. If he was asked to search for something himself... he would not dare at all.

Another reason for dissatisfaction is that the King of Xia frequently went out to fight against "rebellions". Therefore, if the tribes that originally paid tribute reduced or refused to pay tribute, the King of Xia would see it as robbing him, and he would naturally send troops to attack. , plundering property and people.

It was only then that Master Huanglong suddenly realized that those human races who shouted "Everyone will perish with the sun" did not belong to the Xia Dynasty at all. Although the Xia King himself was a bit violent, at least the residents directly under his jurisdiction had no objections.

So he looked in the wrong place in the lower world this time. He should go to visit the tribe that was attacked by Sigui - no, wait, there seems to be nothing to visit. People were robbed of their property and people, and they shouted "I am willing" "I'll die with you", right?

Therefore, Taiyi Zhenren’s words should be understood as: “The king recognizes you as his people, the king allows you to live under his protection, and the king will bear the hatred of the entire world except you.”

It sounds very reasonable...

No, that's not right.

At this time, Master Huanglong had already spent all the money from selling fruits in various ways, and was standing on the wall of Zhenxi City thinking. He vaguely remembered that the Human Emperor Xuanyuan didn't seem to do this?

Boom boom boom - While Master Huanglong was thinking, the gate of the military camp in the city opened, and many infantry, a small number of cavalry and chariots drove out with a bang, and the "Xia" and "Si" flags stretched in the wind, and the shouts of "The king goes out" also One after another.

Forget it, if you can't figure it out, just follow King Xia to see how he treats other tribes.
