Daily life under the hands of mad critics

Chapter 176 Chapter 170

Coming out of the secluded alleyway, toward the west city gate, there was a slight clatter of horseshoes in Zhou Xuanming's ears.

The monk's five senses were extremely sensitive. Zhou Xuanming let go of his senses when he heard the voice, and saw a large group of soldiers in solid clothes lined up and surrounded the city gate in the smoke and dust rising from the city gate. Floating in the sun, with a cold taste.

Several people at close range noticed that Zhou Xuanming suddenly used his spiritual sense to investigate something.

Su and his five senses were not as good as before, and he didn't hear any strange movements, but he felt the direction covered by the disciple's spiritual consciousness, and he had a guess in his heart.

Not long after, Zhou Xuanming withdrew his consciousness.

Su He pursed his lips and said, "Is the imperial army coming?"

The young man beside him looked condensed, looked at Su He and nodded: "The city is already under siege."

Mo Changsi's eyes opened angrily, a little resentful: "The court of the Xiao Kingdom really wants to do such a reckless thing! These are the people of the city."

Dahu stayed here for more than half a month. Although he was not a human being, he couldn't bear to see the miserable conditions of these people. He looked at Su He and couldn't help but said, "Master Ming, is there any way to save them?"

"Let's go, first go to the army to find out the situation." Su He thought for a while.

I don't know if the old emperor of the Xiao Kingdom is still around. If he is still alive, things will be much easier.

"Dahu, you stay here, let's go to the city gate to have a look."

Duhu responded after hearing the words: "Okay, then if you are looking for me, Lord Ming, go to the Hu Mansion in the north of the city, where all the clansmen gather."

Su He nodded and made a note, and they quickly went to the gate of the city.

An hour and a half later.

city ​​gate.

In front of the tall and majestic city gate, guards wearing armor and holding spears guarded the adults in an orderly manner.

At the gate of the city, some refugees who were going out of the city and wanted to flee to other places to make a living were driven back. The people in the vicinity of the city sensed the rush forward and wanted to rush out of the city, but they were all kicked by the soldiers.

"What are you running for! Tell you, the imperial court ordered that everyone in Lin'an City is not allowed to go out! Whoever runs away will end up like this!" The leader of the soldiers pointed his spear at the refugee who was pierced by a gun at his left foot, threatening road.

The common people, who had been hungry for half a month, panicked at first when they heard these words, and then went crazy.

"The imperial court wants to trap us to death! The imperial court doesn't care about our Lin'an City!"

"We are fighting with you! If you rush out, you still have a way to survive, and if you stay here, you will die!"

A thin citizen in the crowd became furious, and the people around him immediately rushed up. The unarmed person rushed up, and was immediately knocked down by the tall and burly soldiers.

The panic didn't last long, and the city gate was spattered with blood. Seeing that they couldn't resist, these people all sat on the ground and cried, wailing all over the place for a while.

When Su and the others arrived, it was like this.

The leading general saw him standing not far away in clean clothes, and shouted at them: "You guys, who are you? Come here!"

Su He raised his foot and walked forward slowly.

Glancing at the bloody scene around him, his brows were slightly frowned, and he inadvertently brought out a bit from his position of high position for many years: "I don't know what's going on, my lord?"

The generals guarding the city did not expect to see well-dressed people with extraordinary temperament in Lin'an City, and they were very suspicious of them: "You guys, please report your name, do you have any documents and proofs? Ban, what are you doing here!"

It is Su He's habit to forge local documents and certificates every time he goes to a place. After all, walking in the world is not the same as in the world of cultivation.

Su He glanced sideways, and Zhou Xuanming took out the guides of several people.

After the chief general inspected it, he found no problem and returned it to them.

Su and an ingot of gold presented him, and then looked at him and said, "My lord, we are here to find someone, but the disaster here is in its current state, is the imperial court going to ignore it?"

The general was a layman, seeing how handsome they were, he stuffed such a large ingot of gold, and pretended to accept it, coughing twice: "Now the treasury is empty, and there will be a war soon. Who will make this Lin'an city unlucky?" , but there is a famine at this time, how can there be financial resources to control them."

"fight?"

This is not a secret. For the sake of money, the general said happily: "I heard that the imperial court started preparing for war with Chu State very early. In the past two years, droughts have occurred frequently. Ripe, the soil is fertile and the yield is extremely high, which is many times stronger than our annual one-ripe."

In order to grab the right land for growing grain?
Su He talked to the general a few more times, and finally left the city with the power of money.

Zhou Xuanming: "Master, let's go to Shengjing now?"

Su He nodded.

Shengjing is the capital of the Xiao Kingdom, if the Xiao Kingdom is planning to fight the war, the matter of Lin'an City must start from the imperial court, it is useless to stay here.

After talking to Duhu and the others, Su He and Zhou Xuanming waited until nightfall, and headed for Shengjing as quickly as possible while taking advantage of the darkness.

The next morning, Shengjing.

After flying all night, Su He finally passed the city gate inspection in the early morning and entered the city.

Compared with the bleak and dilapidated city of Lin'an Prefecture, where refugees are everywhere, and the gray and black scene, Shengjing is full of people and vendors, and there is no trace of disaster. It is a scene of prosperity and prosperity.

Several people sold buns on the street and ate a few mouthfuls, and then found an inn to settle down.

Su He chatted with the waiter in the inn first, and made a lot of conversations.

There is a key piece of information, Xiao Guo's Supreme Emperor is still alive, but he is dying of illness, and he is posting the emperor's list to recruit gods to heal the disease.

Su He is lacking a way to enter the palace openly.That guy Xiao Lie is still alive, at least it's easier to do things.This guy has the most useless temper, and he doesn't know if the past has changed.

……

Several people went upstairs, Zhou Xuanming and Xiao Jingyi followed Su He and said.

"Master, are you going to reveal the imperial list?" Zhou Xuanming guessed it by seeing her thoughtful expression.

"You plan to use your identity back then to change the current situation in the Xiao Kingdom. I'm afraid it will not be that easy."

After all, after many years, the current emperor has changed a long time ago, so we can't whisper the same day.

What Tuer can think of, Su He can naturally think of it, her idea is to explore the situation first, if it can be advanced, the exchange of benefits, as long as a more favorable plan is developed, I believe Xiao Lie and his son will know how to choose.

"As a teacher, I will wait and see first, and I am thinking about it."

……

In front of the gate of the imperial palace, where the imperial list is posted.

Su He took several people to reveal the imperial list.

The guards in front of the imperial list were a little distrustful when they saw their young appearance.

The Supreme Emperor was seriously ill, and many doctors who boasted of their excellent medical skills entered the palace but failed. A few young people seemed unreliable.

"Which of you is a doctor?"

Su He stepped forward: "I am, these few are my apprentices."

"The emperor's list is not easy to reveal, can you do it?"

"Okay, we've uncovered it, so naturally we should try it."
