Song Mu was walking on the streets of Chaozhou City with his head lowered. The situation just now made Song Mu feel a little gloomy.

Although Song Mu has seen many such scenes over the years, every time such scenes appear in front of his eyes again, Song Mu still feels unbearable.

I think about my grandchildren being well-fed, well-fed, and carefree, but every day they weep bitterly because of the Master's rule.

And in this world, there are also people in the Wen Dynasty who are like ants struggling to survive, with no clothes on their bodies and no food to eat all day long. They cry loudly because the bits of food in their hands are taken away.

Sympathy and cruelty are sometimes extremely contradictory in humans.

However, the scholarly officer's words just now made Song Mu suddenly realize that even in such a turbulent southern border, there was still some control and order in the city.

Otherwise, Yi Zi will eat each other and there will be no shortage of food and meat, and that will be the real end of the people.

This couldn't help but make Song Mu a little curious about the city lord who was constantly mentioned.

What kind of city lord can keep Chaozhou City in the hands of the human race and provide a place of protection for the people in the far south of southern Xinjiang.

But at this moment, Song Mu suddenly stopped and looked to the side. A figure was hurriedly coming towards him.

It was the Juren officer who had asked Han Li and others about Song Mu's whereabouts.

"Your Excellency, wait a minute, are you the one who wrote the song of righteousness to quell the demons when you first entered the city?"

Song Mu raised his eyes and saw this burly military lieutenant standing in front of Song Mu, cupping his hands towards Song Mu and saying.

"In the lower left corner, you are Xin. We are a captain of the Ding camp in Chaozhou City. We are here under the orders of the city lord."

"Oh?"

Song Mu raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that just now he was curious about who the other city lord was, and now someone came to invite him.

"Your Excellency waved his hand and wrote a righteous song at the city gate, and he was able to kill the demons in an instant. It is really an amazing move. The Lord of the City already knew about this, so he asked me to come and invite him. Obviously, he was also moved by some love. heart."

When Song Mu heard this, he smiled lightly.

"But I never thought that I could enter the eyes of the Lord of your city. In that case, please lead the way."

Song Mu also felt that there was something strange about the city lord, so he asked Zuo Youxin to lead the way towards the east city wall.

After a while, Song Mu came to the east city wall. The walls here were piled with defensive equipment, and many soldiers were busy repairing the city walls and arranging equipment.

It's just that they are different from the good-looking soldiers and common people that Song Mu saw in the city. They are all tall and full of energy.

Song Mu followed Zuo Youxin to a courtyard under the city wall. The courtyard was ordinary, except that military officers came in and out from time to time. Zuo Youxin said a few words to the guards before handing him over.

"Brother Song, go inside. Zuo will talk to Brother Song someday."

Song Mu held up his hands and walked into the courtyard.

Just as he stepped into it, Ji Zezhu spoke.

"Sir, the star fragment should be here."

Song Mu frowned slightly, expecting that the fragment of the sky star appeared here, and it must be owned by someone among them.

If you can possess fragments of the sky star, then your status is definitely extraordinary.

Song Mu walked towards it without changing his expression, and when he entered the main room of the courtyard, he saw a middle-aged man looking down at the city sand table placed in the room with his hands behind his back.

After the guard reported to him, the other party waved his hand to ask the guard to retreat, but he frowned slightly and kept pointing out a few words and moving many small flags on the sand table.

After a while, he seemed to wake up from his meditation, and now he raised his head and looked at Song Mu.

The two people's eyes met, but Song Mu frowned slightly.

Because although the person in front of him appeared to be at the Hanlin level, Song Mu could tell at a glance that he was at the bachelor level, and he had a calm aura and seemed to be very powerful.

Moreover, the other party's eyes did not look at him with the majesty of a superior person, but rather with some doubts. After a moment, he suddenly showed a smile and bowed his hands to Song Mu respectfully.

"Your Excellency is indeed here."

The other party said this, and the next moment he waved his power, and the door of the main room was closed tightly. What followed was a wave of power, completely isolating the two people from the outside world.

Song Mu was confused at the moment, but he also followed the salute, but never heard what the other party said.

"I was rude. I didn't go out to greet the saint when he arrived." Song Mu paused and didn't know how he was discovered, but the other party said.

"I, Tao Changqing, the poet master of the Tao family, had a relationship with the saint several times. Although I don't know what methods the saint used to only lift people to the realm, but I can still tell something about the saint's appearance and the several secret techniques he learned in the distant mountains."

Song Mu was suddenly surprised when he heard the other party's words. The lord of Chaozhou City standing in front of him was actually Tao Changqing, whom Song Mu had met during the competition in Zhongzhou and Yingzhou.

The other party had lost the vigor of the past, and now looked at Song Mu with firm eyes, but with uncontrollable excitement.

Song Mu also nodded slightly and said lightly.

"I see. Let me tell you why there is such a scene in this city. I didn't expect that the elders of the Tao Poetry Sect are sitting here."

"It's just that I remember that you have already reached the realm of bachelor, what is this now?"

Tao Changqing explained with a smile.

"Soldiers are crafty. This is a borderland. How can we defend such a city if we don't have some trump cards?"

"Besides, this is a battleground for soldiers and armor. Guangdong Province has thousands of acres of land. This is the farthest east and must not be lost."

Song Mumoran, Chaozhou City, which is still in the hands of the human race, is like a nail driven hard into the palm of the demon, and it is the front line of Guangdong Province. If Chaozhou City is not sunk, half of Guangdong Province will still be in control. In the hands of Wen Chao.

Seeing that Song Mu had no strange expression, Tao Changqing spoke to Song Mu in a familiar manner.

"This time, I just learned from the sect that the saint came out of seclusion and became a great scholar, but I didn't expect to see the saint here. It's really a bit surprising."

"Since you know my identity and haven't made it too public, thank you very much."

"On the contrary, this Chaozhou City is actually stationed by an elder of Shizong who is at the level of a bachelor. Song doesn't know if this is the imperial court's instruction or if there are some twists and turns that Song doesn't know about."

Tao Changqing smiled again when he heard this, and said to Song Mu calmly.

"Since the saint has asked this question, I will naturally tell you everything I know and will not hide the truth. Tao is stationed here because of the instructions of your majesty and the sect leader."

"Your Majesty? With Tao Sheng?"

Song Mu was not actually surprised by the stances of the various poetry schools, especially the Tao poetry school. Although it was a secretive sect, it actually had quite a few disciples who entered the world.

It's just that since Li Mo'er became the head of the Wen Dynasty, the relationship between Shi Zong and the imperial court has become somewhat alienated. Although they can still see each other in the face of war, Song Mu still doesn't think Tao Shi Zong can be so helpful to the Wen Dynasty. The saddle is in front of the horse and the horse is behind.

Arranging an elder who is a bachelor to guard the border for the Wen Dynasty, if something goes wrong, it will also be a heavy loss for the Tao Shizong.

But at the moment Tao Changqing was indifferent and just talked to Song Mu.

"Of course, I have been stationed here for several years. One is to help the Wen Dynasty secure the border, and the other is to test a conjecture."

"Guess? How do you say this?"

Song Mu frowned slightly at the moment, but Tao Changqing led Song Mu to the long sand table and pointed at the city in front of him.

"The sage feels that Chaozhou City has been unable to conquer a large area of ​​southern Xinjiang even though it has been conquered for a long time. Why?"

Song Mu didn't speak. After scanning for a moment, he just looked at the other party. Tao Changqing didn't show any concern. He reached out and turned over, and a crystal clear thing appeared in his hand.

It is just a fragment of the sky star, and it is very pure. At this moment, even the Jieze Pearl in Song Mu's body couldn't help but say.

"Exactly this."

Song Mu was quite surprised when he saw Tao Changqing actually taking out a fragment of the sky star, but Tao Changqing said.

"The saint once visited our sect. You should know that for hundreds of years, the Tao Poetry Sect has been studying the use of the stars. Fortunately, a few years ago, the sect accidentally discovered that the stars resonated with the xiongwen and combined with the formation, there was actually something Natural power overflows."

"Natural power?"

Song Mu was immediately surprised. Song Mu naturally knew very well about the use of the Sky Star. Especially when the demon tribe used the Sky Star fragments to forcibly cast the Demon Saint, he had a different understanding of the use of the Sky Star fragments.

Tao Changqing said that the Tao Shizong also developed a method for using the Sky Star Fragments, which made Song Mu feel inexplicably excited at the moment.

Tao Changqing just smiled slightly, and then said lightly.

"The Heavenly Star Formation uses text as the eye of the formation and broken stars as the flag. It mobilizes the vast power of literature to join the body. The stars vibrate together, and their power may shake the sky."
