Meet the Gentleman

Chapter 528: The wise man and the people share the land and food
Funeral palace.

Inside the bronze coffin.

Feng Qingyan was surrounded by rolling black mist, as if he had turned into a thick black sea in the coffin. At this moment, he was still in a state of neither sleeping nor waking. He needed to completely suppress the Ghost Emperor's consciousness before he could truly wake up.

but now.

Instead, his consciousness might have been suppressed by the Ghost Emperor.

The horror of the Ghost Emperor was far beyond his imagination. He was a terrifying existence that he could not fathom.

If it weren't for the previous suppression by Emperor Shang and the various means he used, he would not have been able to hold his own against the Ghost Emperor.

Instead, he was suppressed by the Ghost Emperor in an instant.

For example, the Ghost Gate, the Position of Virtual Saint, the Thunder Flower, Heaven's Luck, etc. were all used to suppress the Ghost Emperor, but the result was that no one could do anything to anyone.

This made Feng Qingyan extremely anxious. How could he suppress the Ghost Emperor?

Hurry up as the law!

……

Thousands of years ago.

There is such a group of people.

They lived in extreme poverty, wearing tattered coarse cloth clothes, and could only make a living by making straw sandals and weaving mats.

They have no land and live a wandering life.

All the way from the Chu State in the south to the Dai State in the north, from the Qi State in the east to the Yu State in the west, traveling hundreds of thousands of miles and all over the world.

They are not begging for food, nor are they pursuing high positions and generous salaries.

Instead, they hope to get a piece of land and a house of their own so that they can settle down and farm.

But hundreds of years passed.

They still don't have a piece of land of their own.

In this huge Zhou world, no one was willing to give them a piece of land or a small house...

The princes of the world drove them away.

The Holy Word sect rejected them.

In this vast Zhou world, there was no place for them to stand, so they had to move to the northeast of Zhou world.

Rumors.

There are pieces of land there that do not belong to the princes of the world or to the Holy Way sect.

This made them very happy...

but.

It was a barren land that was perpetually frozen and dark all year round. There was no grass growing within a radius of thousands of miles, and it was impossible to grow food.

But no matter what.

This is a land without an owner.

As long as they come, this land will be theirs.

Because they had an extremely strong desire for land, their ancestors had dreamed of having land of their own, and there was indeed no place for them to stand in the world, which eventually forced them to move towards this dark frozen land.

Going through hardships.

They finally arrived.

So, they began the arduous and long process of land reclamation...

After generations of cultivation and research, they can finally grow food on this dark frozen land.

they.

Finally I have my own land.

In this vast world, they finally have a place to stand.

When crops were finally grown on this frozen soil where countless ancestors had been buried, countless farmers fell to the ground and cried.

How many hardships did our ancestors overcome to have today's bumper harvest? They looked at the golden wheat fields and couldn't help but burst into tears...

This is beautiful land, where I grew up!
Shortly after.

So a country was established here.

This country was an agricultural country. They were different from the vassal states in the Zhou Dynasty. Instead, wise men worked the land and ate with the people, and governed the country while cooking.

It was precisely because they held to the idea that "the wise should work together with the people to cultivate the land and eat together, and rule together with the people" that the princes of the world drove them away and the Holy Dao sect rejected them.

A group of poor and lowly farmers actually wanted the great princes and sages to work in the fields like them, and cook and govern the country together.

is it possible?

I'm giving you face by not slapping you in the face.

roll!
The farther you go, the better. Out of sight, out of mind.

When everyone in the Zhou Dynasty thought that these lowly farmers would starve to death in the dark frozen soil, who could have imagined that they would actually establish a country on this frozen soil where no grass grew?

Moreover, crops can actually be grown on the frozen soil that is dark all year round.

This shocked the world.

It is because of their research from generation to generation that farmland was opened up in the first city which was always dark...

The agricultural country is not big and the population is not large.

Although the land had been cultivated for hundreds of years and was not very fertile, it was enough for them to have enough food and clothing.

In this dark area, there is no sunlight all year round.

There were only a few lighting lamps built on the high towers, which the farmers called daylight lamps. These daylight lamps were modified little by little by the farmers through the study of literary lanterns, and their light could illuminate several miles away.

It was mid-autumn. The southern part of the Zhou world had already completed the autumn harvest, and the northern part was also preparing for the autumn harvest, but it would take a long time for the crops in the agricultural countries to fully mature.

First, it is cold almost all year round in agricultural countries.

Second, fluorescent lamps are never as good as sunlight.

Under the dim yellow daylight, one can see flat and wide farmland and neat rows of houses beside the fields. Outside the houses are mulberry trees, fruit trees, bamboo forests and the like, and the paths in the fields are intertwined, and the sounds of chickens crowing and dogs barking can be heard everywhere.

On the farmland, many farmers were coming and going working in the fields, many children were playing around by the fields, and many old people could be seen sitting under the trees in front of the houses chatting and laughing.

Although both the elderly and children were dressed simply, they were comfortable and happy, with smiles on their faces.

Enjoy yourself.

They also have enough food and clothing.

The collapse of the Holy Sky is none of their business.

The world is in chaos, and it's none of their business.

Even if destiny comes to the world, it has nothing to do with them.

They just hope to be able to farm peacefully forever...

Their only two concerns now are Taboo and Demon Night. As a small agricultural country, they have no chance of resisting Taboo. If Taboo comes to the agricultural country, it will be an unimaginable tragedy, and the country may be destroyed...

Now Mo Ye and the others can still resist.

Although the sun lamps could not dispel the demon night, they had many civil lamps and could still protect themselves. However, now, many farmers at the level of civil ministers were worried about the 100,000 Wuzu who had been wandering outside the agricultural country.

Since Wu Gong led 100,000 soldiers to rebel outside the First City and betrayed the Holy Way, he headed towards the northeast of Zhou Dynasty.

Has been wandering outside the agricultural country.

There was no place for them to stand in the Zhou world.

If they wanted to establish a Wu Kingdom, the best choice would be an agricultural kingdom.

First, the agricultural country was far away from the Zhou Dynasty.

Second, agricultural countries have sufficient food and land.

Third, the agricultural country...is not strong, and can even be said to be weak.

However, what is surprising is that more than half a year has passed, but Wu Gong has not made any progress and has been wandering outside the country.

Although this made Nong Guo feel relieved, he became even more worried.

With the temple here, perhaps martial arts will be a little more cautious.

But now the holy sky has collapsed.

The holy way can no longer suppress the martial way.

The temple cannot suppress martial arts either.

Although the three major sects still want to maintain the power of the temple, they are taking it for granted. Who still takes the temple seriously now?
Plus, God’s will came to this world.

Perhaps this is the best time for Wu Gong to establish the Wu Kingdom.
