Chapter 273

"Ghost? It's all day... Ha ha... "

The old fisherman grinned dryly, his forehead dripping with cold sweat, and finally knew what was wrong.

He had seen many passengers. They were either filled with righteous indignation or scared to death. Even when they were in trouble, they were impassioned and their palms trembled slightly. However, this guest was too calm.

When things go wrong, there will be demons!

Rich life experience, let the old fisherman know right now, but it's too late.

"It's very common, isn't it?"

Wu Ming pushed the octopus into the water and immediately closed his eyes, as if waiting to die.

"Ah

But later, a fisherman screamed and was suddenly dragged into the water by a metal tentacle, and blood came out in an instant.

Bang Dang!

In a moment, another boat broke a big hole, and the fisherman on it sank straight without even uttering a scream. Only a string of bubbles kept rising.

This scene immediately made all the boat hands numb.

"There are monsters under the water!"

"It's the water devil!"

"Monster!"

"Boy, do evil

……

The business of licking blood at the edge of the knife is all young people. At this time, they are brave and want to end the monster with a fishing fork, or they just jump to help capture Wu Ming.

However, even if it's just the simplest mechanism puppet, it's not something they can deal with.

"Mother... Wuwu... I'm so afraid..."

The cry of the little fishing girl came.

"Don't cry... Make water ghosts!"

Wu Ming comforted him, but he glanced at the old fisherman. The cold light made him shudder.

"A first-class puppet beast is still a big killer against ordinary people!"

Wu Mingmu, with a face on his face, let the organ Octopus come and go underwater, killing all the sailors. In his heart, he silently compared the difference between puppet technique and Daofa.

"Well... The puppet skill of this mechanism, the lower level puppets pay attention to spiritual control, but it is similar to the cultivation of Taoist Yuanshen... I just don't know how to manipulate them if they make intelligent puppets in the future..."

"Why, not yet?"

Looking at the old fisherman who seemed to be turning into wood, Wu Ming asked faintly.

"Right now! Now

The fisherman was excited and looked at his panicked wife and daughter. No matter a guy who had some relations with his family was underwater, he bit his teeth and left here with an awning boat.

Behind him, the broken hull and the red blood make him know that this seemingly honest guy can kill people without blinking an eye, and he has special skills, which is really beyond his ability to deal with.

Wu Ming looked northward, but he didn't take care of him.

There is such a big difference in strength. If there is any change, it's just killing.

At this time, he is quietly thinking about the situation in Dingzhou.

"The great Zhou Dynasty inherited the great business foundation and divided the world into 19 states, but after the Yongping rebellion initiated by Huang Jie, the imperial court declined day by day, and the local princes fought for supremacy. The chaos was faint, and even the prefectures and herdsmen could not stop it..."

"There were seven counties in Dingzhou. Originally, there was a marquis and a vassal town. The Marquis ruled the original County, and Qilin ruled Pingshan County. Now the wupheasant once again splits the two phoenixes. The imperial court only has three counties, rinan, Zhuwu, and Jiude. Really, all the faces have been torn off..."

"At this time, it seems that the State animal husbandry is Xu Chun? He was born as a magistrate, and he was also a loyal minister of the imperial court... Hehe, it's hard to be a loyal minister in this world... "

If you want to be a hero, you can take over the power alone, expand the army in the name of Zhou mu, and attack the undeserving officials.

However, he became a loyal minister, but he could only be bound by the court's etiquette.

After Wu pheasant's action, the situation was even more serious. Even if Xu Chun had a heart, it was too late.

After cleaning up the ants, the second half of the road was quiet. In less than half a day, we arrived at the Luoshui wharf.

Dingzhou Prefecture is located in Jiude County, surrounded by mountains and water, and is more famous for the scenery of Luoshui.

Of course, there is also the Xie family who has a bad relationship with Wu Ming. The ancestral home is also located here.

"One money for a boat, one money for a meal, there is no shortage of yours..."

With a smile, Wu Ming put the silver in the hands of the fisherman, who was shaking in both hands, and Shi ran got off the fishing boat.

Not far away, a magnificent city is in sight. This is the governance of Dingzhou, Dingzhou City.

"Well... It seems that the Xie family has really followed my advice since they settled here 200 years ago... But their fate has been broken. It's better not to see them..."

Wu Ming shakes his head, but his heart suddenly moves. He thinks of Xie ling'er and Xie Baoyu, the emissaries sent by the Xie family, when they were married last time.

"On a whim, you must feel something!"

At this time, according to Wu Ming's Daogong, it's just a matter of observing the will of heaven, observing the people's heart, and knowing the cause and effect immediately.

"There is still a disaster for these two people. Let's see it then..."

He's not the nanny of the Xie family, but in the face of the last time, if he can run into him, he doesn't mind a little helping. It's their destiny.

"Dingzhou City..."

With a smile, Wu Ming called a carriage and drove slowly into the city.

……

In Dingzhou City, inside the governor's residence.

A middle-aged man with the appearance of a civil servant was holding the copywriter and listening to the angry voice from the front hall, his steps stopped immediately.

"How bold! How bold! Wu pheasant, female Si Chen, has the courage to call herself a governor, intercept taxes of the two prefectures, and call herself a civil and military officer. She has expanded her military system. She is really against her heart. She should be punished for it! "

"Slow down! The state soldiers are weak and can't be used to a great extent... Keke... Besides, we are officials of the imperial court. If we don't have a will, we can't expand our army. If we take the state soldiers to attack, we will be in danger of toppling the army with our eggs... Let's send an emissary to ask the imperial court what they mean... Keke... "

"Otherwise, aren't you afraid of the impeachment?"

Another voice is feeble, which makes people know that it is Gao Shun, the governor of this state.

"It must be general Zhang who will send out troops. But the assassin is very weak and ill. He will finish his term in a few months. I heard that he has written to beg for bones. How can he agree to use troops?"

"What's more, even if we want to expand the army, where will the money and food come from? Will you give it to Mr. Zhou mu? Even if he gave it to him, it was still a matter of two opinions. "

Hearing the document is a sigh in my heart.

Because of the misfortune of frugality, under the control of the imperial court, they were even more uneasy about the state and adopted the policy of decentralization.

According to the system, each state has a prefectural herdsman, who is in charge of administration, a prefectural governor, who is in charge of prefectural soldiers, and a Sili Xiaowei. He is a capital official appointed by the imperial court, who is specially in charge of supervision.

In fact, this is the separation of administrative, military and supervisory powers, which leads to the fact that no one can be dominant.

"However, with the decline of the imperial court, it's hard to come back, but it's not a clever way to bring the dead back to life..."

With a sigh in his heart, the clergyman came to the door and bowed down respectfully: "I'd like to tell you that there are two prefectures of Pingshan and Dingyuan!"

"It's Yu Wen. Send it up!"

Gao Shun coughs, but he can clearly name every official under his command. Obviously, he has a good memory and admiration.

Yu Wen was so excited that he crept forward. After putting down the copy, he stepped back a few steps to the corner. He looked at his nose, nose and heart, and did not move.

In the hall, there are several other people, a bearded, armored general immediately asked: "how?"

He has a loud voice, which makes Yuwen's eardrum make a slight noise.

"Keke... Ding Hou Shi Tai, Shen Wu pheasant, who is a lawless man, kills his beloved son, so please fight against him... Hehe, he said that he is willing to send troops to help suppress. Is this not taking advantage of our power to avenge him?"

Gao Shun read on: "only the next one is Qi Lin, the governor of Pingshan County, who recommended Wu pheasant as the governor of Nanfeng County. It seems that the two families collude secretly, and even jointly denounce dinghou, Keke... It's really you who sing and I'm on the stage. It's so lively..."

"Son of a bitch! What do these vassal towns regard the name of the imperial court as? "

General Zhang was angry and made a loud noise with his fist. He was obviously not angry.

"Keke... Lord Zhang calms down. The court is weak. At this time... Keke... As long as they know how to be courtiers and keep their last position... Keke, I have nothing else to ask for..."

Gao Shun seems helpless to say, but general Zhang's chest fluctuates violently. Suddenly he bows his hand: "my subordinates are going to inspect the barracks. I'll leave first!"

Salute out, obviously angry to the extreme.

"Ah... Cough..."

Gao Shun seems to want to stand up, but he coughs repeatedly, so he has no choice but to sit down.

"Take care, old man!"

Yu Wen immediately stepped forward and helped Gao Shun to his seat: "don't worry about losing your body..."

"How... How..."

But when he got close to him, Gao Shun whispered: "if you want to kill a thief, you can't go back to heaven. There are more than ten thousand soldiers in our state. They are all old and weak, and their weapons are not well equipped. However, the imperial court is more and more serious in collecting money. If you don't like it, you will be impeached by the captain of Sili. What can I do with the governor?"

Yu Wen was silent.

Dingzhou situation is still good, just a few domineering Festival just.

In other states, every year, there are either floods and droughts, or there are refugees who make trouble. Although Huang Jie died, there are still other wars, and there are even those who follow the example of the last days of the previous dynasty and stand up against the king, claiming that they want to change the order of the Zhou Dynasty!

The pain of bone cutting is just around the corner, and the imperial court can only make a further contribution and dispatch the last elite to suppress and kill.

It's said that the two states have been destroyed by the continuous war. The people's lives and injuries are in a mess, and the bones are exposed in the wild. It's hard to see.

Compared with these, although there were disasters and chaos in this prefecture, the people were still able to survive. This is the credit of the prefectural herdsmen and the governor.

"What about these documents?"

"If I don't send it, I will report to the prefect. As for the three vassal towns below, let them make trouble..."

Gao Shun closes his eyes wearily, but Yu Wen reads out the shape of his mouth, obviously trying to say "dog bites dog.".

He said goodbye immediately and sighed again: "it's good to let go, but it's too late when the three families annex each other and become the first powerful vassal of the state. However... It's none of my business. Even if it changes, can't I protect the whole family with my magic power? But it seems that the senior members of our league have had little contact recently. I don't know what happened at the top? "（ (to be continued.)
