My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 200 Value

At this time, it is time for us to stand up and make our voices heard, whether it is for the court or for yourselves.Anyone who supports Mr. Shijun's reform will stand on my left hand side; those who do not support or oppose it, please stand on my right hand side. "

As soon as Jordan finished speaking, everyone present stood on his left side one after another. Those few who hesitated saw this scene, and after looking around, they also stood together with everyone.

"Okay." Jordan was overjoyed seeing this scene, and his arrogance had never been as high as it is now. He suddenly raised his right arm and shouted: "Re-measure the Lingtian!"

"Re-measure the spiritual field!" The monks below shouted first.

"Distribute according to the head!"

"Distribute according to the head!" This time, thousands of people spoke in unison, and everyone's face showed excitement and fanaticism.

Not only on the CD, but at the same time, in Jiangyang, Hanjia, Wenshan and other county guards in Yizhou, the same voice was shouted out by countless people one after another.

There are two roads going south from Bo Road, one goes through Nanqin and Pingyi to Yelang, and then goes southeast from Yelang to Lingling County and Guiyang County in Jingzhou.This path has existed since ancient times.The other road going south from the Bo Road was dug artificially along the mountain. Because it is five feet wide, it is also called "Five Foot Road".After the Great Qin conquered the land of Shu and arrived at Bodao, further south was the boundless mountains that stretched for an unknown number of miles.Qin Wang was not satisfied with just conquering Shu, so he asked General Chang Meng to lead 7000 people to dig a road south along the mountain, from Bodao, through Nanguang, Zhuti, Tanglang, and then to Wei County in Ningzhou.Later, in the period of Emperor Wu of the Shang Dynasty, he sent people to open the five-foot road from Zhuti to Pingyi in the east.

Since the excavation of Wuchi Road, this difficult and dangerous mountain road like a winding snake has become a road with wealth flowing in the eyes of business travelers.Jade and agate from Yunnan, and silk and well salt from Sichuan, are the goods that are most popular with both parties.At the same time, bandits who robbed business travelers also appeared on this commercial road, large and small, all over the two states and four counties.Many of them have two identities, both civilians and robbers.If you are weak, you will rob, if you are strong, you will become "honest and simple" ordinary people

Yong Kai is the most famous bandit along the Wuchi Road, with more than 700 men under his command, active in the Yunwu Ridge to the west of the Wumeng Mountains.This place guards the north-south five-foot road and the east-west five-foot road, and its geographical location is very important.In this southwestern mountainous area, so many of his people surpassed many small tribes scattered in the vast mountain range, and his strength was very strong.The terrain of Yunwu Ridge is extremely dangerous, but there is a lake and land in a valley, and there is even a small piece of spiritual land less than [-] mu, where Yong Kai set up camp.

This Yongkai's family was originally the surname of Zangcang County, and his father worked under the Zangcang prefect back then.Because he was dissatisfied with the extortionate extortion by the prefect of Zangzang, his father repeatedly remonstrated and refused to carry out the orders of the prefect many times. Finally, the prefect found an excuse and sentenced him to death for treason.Yong Kai, who was only 21 years old at the time, scattered his family wealth and gathered a group of people to rob the execution ground in Pingyi County in broad daylight and rescued his father.Since then, he has been a robber on Wumeng Mountain.Since he is a bandit, he cannot be ranked by the state and county, and no one knows what level of monk he is now.According to the legends, Yong Kai's cultivation is extremely profound, he is good at wielding a big sword, and he is extremely brave.Wumeng Mountain is deep and densely forested, with dangerous roads.Yong Kai has been a bandit for more than ten years, and the two counties of Zhu Ti and Zang have been unable to do anything about him.

There is another story about this Yongkai that has been circulated among the two counties of Zhu Ti and Zang.After he snatched his father from the execution ground, he burned down his ancestral house with a big fire, and fled to Yunwuling in Wumeng Mountain with more than 30 family members and servants.There used to be a group of bandits living here in Yunwu Ridge, the number was only five or sixty, and the leader was called Wu Boss.In the early years, when Boss Wu was robbing a merchant, he was injured by a monk among the merchants and fled. Yong Kai happened to meet him and rescued Boss Wu who was seriously injured and was dying.The two became close friends.When he robbed Yongkai's father, Boss Wu brought a few good hands along with Yongkai to make a big fuss in the execution ground.Those who followed Yong Kai to Yunwu Ridge included Yong Kai's own family members, as well as several young monks and servants whom he had befriended on weekdays. There were about a hundred people.The big guys took Yongkai as the new leader because he treated others generously and righteously on weekdays.

After Yongkai declined several times, he saw that everyone was very firm, so he said: "Everyone thinks highly of Yong, and you all recommend that I be the master. Yong is really sincere and fearful. If Yong is the master, everyone should rely on Yong." One condition, otherwise, the position of the village master will be elected by you."

Everyone in Wu Lao said: "Since we sincerely recommend the virtuous younger brother as the master, I will naturally agree to any conditions."

Yong Kai then said: "Once there are hundreds of people, there will inevitably be disputes among them. The most urgent thing is to establish rules first. We are not allowed to kill or steal each other, and the elders shall judge any disputes between men and women. They are not allowed to co-operate privately, and must engage in wedding and funeral ceremonies..."

Therefore, under Yongkai's management, this Yunwuling was in order, and everyone was happy. Even if they robbed merchants, Yongkai made a series of rules.This made his reputation more and more famous, and the number of people who defected to him was increasing.

One day, Yong Kai was instructing some teenagers in the bow and arrow martial arts in the valley, when he suddenly saw a person rushing from the entrance of the valley, it was his right-hand man, Ehu.This Ehu is good at using a spear on weekdays, and his cultivation level is second only to Yongkai among them.

"Brother, it's not good." The Ehu people shouted loudly before they arrived: "Boss Wu was taken by someone, and that person is coming here."

Yong Kai couldn't help being surprised when he saw Ehu's disheveled hair and disheveled clothes.Yesterday he received news from the eyeliner at the foot of the mountain that a business traveler with an unfamiliar face was going to pass the five-foot road at the foot of the mountain today.The business traveler had unfamiliar faces on the one hand, and on the other hand, there was no banner they were familiar with.In layman's terms, they have never paid protection fees to them.After hearing the news, early this morning, Ehu and Boss Wu went down the mountain with more than 20 good men, in order to give this small group of strange business travelers a little color.In Yong Kai's eyes, a group of small merchants was nothing if there were two experienced monks, Ehu and Wu Boss, leading the formation.All the business travelers who walk on Wuchi Road all the year round have to visit the wharf first, and then they can go unimpeded. The rules that have been passed down for many years cannot be broken.

"What's going on?" Yong Kai asked in a deep voice, suppressing the surprise in his heart.

"That group of people came after us at all." At this time, Ehu had lost his usual arrogance, his black face was covered with beads of sweat, "Only one shot, Boss Wu and I didn't make three moves together, so he beat us to the ground. After the man knocked us down, he didn't take my life. He just asked me to come back and report. He took Boss Wu behind us. Follow. Said that I want to see you, brother."

"What!" Rao Yongkai, who is usually calm, changed his face when he heard this remark. He knows the skills of Ehu and Boss Wu very well. Take down the opponent within one move, "How can there be such a master in this kind of place?"

"The visitor came towards me, but they didn't hurt the lives of the two of them. Naturally, they are not some officers and soldiers. Could it be that they came from Huobing? But with such a skill, why come to this place where no shit? "Yong Kai frowned tightly in surprise and doubt.

"Look, brother." E Hu pointed at the valley entrance, "Those two people are already here."

Yong Kai looked along E Hu's fingers, only to see that the leader was tall and handsome. Although he was dressed in common clothes, he couldn't conceal his unique and unique temperament.This person is holding Boss Wu in one hand, although his feet are not in a hurry, but with one step, there is a distance of several zhang.And behind him was a fair-skinned middle-aged man in his thirties, with a natural expression, following the young man in front of him, which showed that his cultivation was extraordinary.

These two people are none other than Zhou Xing and Du Chou.

I am not here to bring weapons to you, I am to bring order to you!
This was the first sentence Zhou Xing said after seeing Yong Kai.This sentence was later talked about by many people, including Yongkai.A few years later, most people who study history in this world say that Emperor Zhou Xing's conquest of Yongkai showed that he had already planned to betray the Great Jin.Some people scolded Zhou Xing for being an ambitious and conspirator, while others praised Zhou Xing for his unique vision and ability to take the lead in planning in the chaotic situation in Yizhou.

It’s just that Zhou Xing, the person involved, is thinking at this time that I want to protect the interests of the business center I’m about to establish, and I need to make this five-foot road where wealth flows into a safe and efficient channel for wealth.No one in this world would think of his most common way of protecting commerce from his world, let alone understand it.There are east and west roads from Ningzhou to Shu. In addition to the Wuchi Road in the east, there is also the Lingguan Road in the west.This Lingguan road is from Shu to Ningzhou through Yuexi County. In Zhou Xing's view, this is competition. When he first established his fiefdom, he couldn't allow himself to fail to fire the first shot.

Regarding the geography of this world, he originally thought it was exactly the same as that in that game, but when he traveled from Shangluo, he was surprised to find that although many places matched, there were also many places that did not match at all.

Take Shu for example.Based on his background in the Shushan sect back then, he was very familiar with the territories and even the Yunnan and Guizhou regions.In his impression, Yunnan and Guizhou are not much different from Shu. Although there are mountains, they are not as many as he has seen now.He clearly remembered that there was a black swamp stretching for thousands of miles in Yunnan, filled with black air all day long, and there were few people and animals.After he came here, he vaguely mentioned this matter with many people before and after, but no one knew about it.This made him have to suppress these doubts in his heart.

Based on the accumulation of experience from various aspects in his later generations, only places with developed commerce and trade will develop into big cities.Although he clearly talked about the geography of Shu in his heart, he is naturally the first in CD.But CD is CD, that is CD Wang Huangfuying's fief, not his Zhou Xing's fief.

Since Du Chou analyzed the imminent political situation in the whole country and even Yizhou for him that day, he has seriously considered how to strengthen his own strength so that he can protect himself in the possible turmoil in the future.After thinking about it this way, he realized that his territory lacked everything now.

There is a shortage of well-trained sergeants, which requires a large population, and his territory now only has more than 4000 people.

Lack of weapons, lack of armor, which requires a lot of leather and pig iron, as well as skilled craftsmen.If you want to make high-end weapons and armor with talismans, you need weapon talisman masters and a lot of spirit stone animal blood and so on.According to Du Chou, a sergeant wearing armor and holding a sharp blade can ignore dozens of unarmed sergeants with the same skill.

He still lacks food, lacks spiritual valley.In short, everything is poor and white.

Du Chou didn't support Zhou Xing's idea of ​​subduing the robbers at all at first.First of all, he has crossed the border.Secondly, he couldn't understand why he wanted to subdue these robbers.

To protect the safety of business travel?

This is a matter for the government along the way.

Besides, even though bandits were rampant, those business travelers still walked through this almost only passage all day long.

As for what Zhou Xing explained, protecting the safety of the trade routes would bring more business travelers, and it would be more conducive to building the Bo Road into a trade center at the southern end of Shu. He was skeptical about this.

Although he has experienced people, he is trapped by the influence of traditional concepts, thinking that the construction of the territory is to promote farming and reduce taxes, which finally gave Zhou Xing a sense of superiority in knowledge.

And Yong Kai's performance in front of him made Zhou Xing even more astonished, and also secretly suspected in his heart that the traverser really had some domineering aura.

Before he came, he and Du Chou had a very detailed understanding of Yongkai's information, and the two had repeatedly deduced that the conditions that the other party might propose had already provided the other party's bargaining chips.

Yongkai and the others are black households. Although life is worry-free, there must be some of them who want to make progress.The common people are fine, many people spend their whole life in a daze, those monks are not willing to bury their talents deep in the mountains.Even if they want to, what about their children?No one wants their children to live a better life, instead of being born in the mountains and unable to see the colorful world outside.

Zhou Xing can give legal status to their descendants.

Zhou Xing can also give them better cultivation methods.

Zhou Xing can give them more supplies.

Zhou Xing can provide them with better medical treatment.

However, when Zhou Xing put forward the first bargaining chip, Yong Kai was still hesitating, while the boss of Ehuwu and others were already full of excitement.

"You can look up to us with your noble status as a prince, but without these benefits, I'm afraid my brothers will follow you." Yong Kai finally said, "It's just that the one who Yong can't understand is the prince. What value do you see in these mountain people like me?"
