The first cause of all realms

Chapter 220 Refining the body with gold!

As a city guarding the border, it is the gateway of a state, a region, and a country.

The Sirius Pass is naturally much stricter than it looks.

There are strict regulations on when the curfew is, when the house is closed, when the city is opened, and when it is closed.

For the offenders, there is no mercy. Those who steal and fight will be imprisoned in light cases, and their hands and feet will be cut off in severe cases.

Not to mention murder.

What is especially important is that in this city, all military laws can be fully enforced.

"The border is a critical city, and the law is strict as it should be."

Yang Yu is naturally not surprised.

What the army pays attention to is the order and prohibition. If the violation is not punished, the Qingzhou soldiers will not have such a big name.

In fact, before this trip, he had heard similar rumors.

There was a quasi-grandmaster of Wuguan who was hanged at the gate for killing people in this city.

"It's good that adults know the severity."

Feng Ping breathed a sigh of relief.

What he was most afraid of was that this lord was young and energetic, and he thought he had a great background, so he didn't pay much attention to military skills.

There is no such thing.

I don't know how many young heroes who controlled the sect's power at home were hanged to death.

There are always people who are lucky and think that they are just in case.

Gong chips are staggered.

Traveling all the way, although Yang Jue didn't feel it was hard, but he still had little taste in his mouth. At this time, the food and wine were in front of him, so he naturally ate a few more mouthfuls.

When the two talked, it was mostly Feng Ping who was talking and he was listening.

Feng Ping has lived in Sirius Pass for a long time, so his knowledge of the matter here is naturally much more detailed than the few words in the newspaper.

In his scattered words, Yang Qiu also had a deeper understanding of Sirius Pass.

Sirius Pass has always been a heavy city.

The most elite army of 15 soldiers stationed in Qingzhou, the most respected person is naturally the general of Qingzhou, Wei Zhengxian.

"...The disciples of the aristocratic family are multi-cultural and martial arts, and their martial arts attainments surpass those of those born in poverty. Not to mention, there are even family-passed art of war to learn.

Therefore, under General Wei, among the 13 people who hold the real power, eight of them were born in aristocratic families, or have deep ties to the aristocratic families..."

Feng Ping sighed slightly:
"This is because Xiao Qingfeng is impatient with the harshness of the army and does not want to hold a high position, otherwise..."

This is an extremely shocking ratio.

The thirteen commanders of the Qingzhou Army, the aristocratic families actually accounted for more than half of them.

What this means, Feng Ping knows, and Yang Qiu also knows.

In fact, Long Yuan Dao and even the imperial court knew it well.

Therefore, most of the generals stationed at Tianlangguan in the past were expatriates, and they were all direct descendants of King Longyuan.

"There is something wrong."

Yang Jue frowned slightly:

"Even if this General Wei is the best martial artist in Qingzhou, he shouldn't allow his subordinates to belong to the same faction..."

It is something that all superiors don't want to see subordinates sticking together.

But he didn't believe that Wei Zhengxian would be an exception.

This is no longer a question of fear.

"Your Excellency, you know why Qingzhou is not peaceful these years? It is obviously guarded by a powerful army like Qingzhou soldiers..."

Feng Ping asked, all these years, he has been paying attention to these all the time, and he is very clear about this.

Without waiting for Yang Yu to ask, he lowered his voice and said:

"In recent years, Qingzhou has been very uneasy, and the outside of the pass is ready to move. The biggest reason is that many years ago, when the mountain was cut down and the temple was destroyed, the old prince was seriously injured..."

"Slightly heard."

Yang Yu's heart skipped a beat.

Thinking of Yu Fengxian.

If his guess is correct, this Commander-in-Chief probably came from the Longyuan Palace...

Sweeping around, Feng Ping seemed to be a little apprehensive, so he simply transmitted the sound directly:
"Different from the other princes, King Longyuan is the most similar to Prince Zhao. He only has one wife, let alone a concubine. Naturally, the population is not prosperous..."

Feng Ping spoke concisely, talking about the family affairs of King Longyuan.

King Longyuan has only three sons.

Among them, the eldest son was congenitally weak and passed away a few years ago. The third son admired Buddhism and worshiped in Lanke Temple many years ago.

There is only the second son, who is alert and intelligent, with extraordinary talent, first-class literary and martial arts, deeply loved by scholars, and was once appointed as the next prince by default.

"Originally, the eldest son had only one daughter, the third son had already become a monk, and the second son was almost the next Longyuan King. Unfortunately, before the eldest son passed away, he gave birth to a son."

"Take the heirloom."

Yang Ju's expression froze slightly.

In the ten veins of the Ming Dynasty, the nine kings are divided into nine lines, and King Longyuan is one of them. He sits on one line, the power of three states, and governs hundreds of millions of people.

is the true bit height weight.

With regard to the succession of such a great position, it is inevitable that the fight must be extremely fierce.

"Although the eldest son is weak, he is the eldest son after all. There are quite a few people who support him, especially his wife's family is not an idle generation."

Having said this, Feng Ping couldn't help sighing again:
"The battle for succession has always been dangerous. What can General Wei do? If you want the family to stand in line, no matter which side you have, you have to win..."

"No wonder..."

Yang Yue shook his head slightly.

Only then did I understand Xu Wenji's difficulty.

The battle between court and court is not about being brave and ruthless. If he wants to eradicate the four great masters, what he has to face is not only the conservative people in Qingzhou City.

It is these pioneers who have gone deep into temples, rivers and lakes, and the army.

These people are the real elites of the Four Great Families, the true background.

The mediocre will protect their own family, while the elite will forge ahead.

This is what the four great masters, and the powerful families of the world, have been doing for many years.

This has also led to the fact that those in power in all dynasties, no matter which family is in power, must win them over.

At this moment of seizing the heir, Xu Wenji wanted to move the powerful family. Not only could he not rely on the power of Long Yuandao, but he would be hindered instead.

Wei Zheng stayed away from Qingzhou first, not necessarily because of the real instability outside the pass, but most likely because he was avoiding the struggle for the heir apparent.

The more powerful he is and the more powerful he is, the more careful he must be at this moment.

"When a family grows big, it will cause far-reaching disasters, whether it is as small as a state or as big as the world. But how many of the princes above the court are not from wealthy families?"

Feng Ping took a sip of wine resentfully, and the wine glass fell heavily, with great unwillingness in his tone:
"Poor my father, who dedicated himself to serving the country, but died at the hands of a villain! If you don't avenge this revenge, you will not be willing to die!"

Yang Yu was silent.

During the conversation, he also knew the enmity between Feng Ping and the Xiao family.

Thirteen years ago, a major case occurred in the Delin Mansion.

That year, the head of Mansion Delin was stabbed to death in office, which caused a sensation in Qingzhou, and even Longyuan Dao and the imperial court sent people down.

It's a pity that he was finally judged to have died of illness, and nothing happened.

The root cause of this major case was that he touched the interests of the Xiao family.

Not only did they die in office, but their family members were retaliated against one after another in the following years. Only Feng Ping was rescued by Feng Jianmen and went to Tianlangguan with his identity concealed.

"It made adults laugh..."

Feng Ping lightly wiped the corners of his eyes, calmed down, forced a smile and said:

"Is there anything else you want to ask, my lord?"

Yang Jue digested the information he got, and suddenly asked:

"why me?"

"In recent years, your lord has become famous. He has made great achievements in suppressing rebellions, suppressed bandits and escorted prisoners, killed the three major bandits in Changliu, and even assisted Master Xu in killing Ji Longshan, and made all kinds of great things..."

Feng Ping looked slightly solemn:

"Especially what the lord has done in Mulin Mansion, every time someone mentions it, Feng can't help but feel agitated, wishing to drink three hundred cups with the lord!"

Mulin Mansion...

Yang Ju was slightly taken aback, and immediately understood.

In this world where most people have no entertainment, whenever something important happens, it will spread quickly and be mentioned repeatedly as a topic of conversation.

It is not a strange thing that what happened in Mulin Mansion spread to Sirius Pass.

The biggest reason why Feng Ping came to him was because he really made a move against the four great masters.

The enemy of the enemy is naturally more trustworthy than most people.

Yang Yu thought about it.

Feng Ping was also observing Yang Ju, and to his disappointment, no matter how he looked, he couldn't see any subtle changes.

"Brother Lao Feng will entertain you."

Yang Jue was well aware of his temptation, but he didn't care too much. He drank up the wine in his glass, picked up the Xuanlei Stone, and was about to leave.

"grown ups……"

Feng Ping got up to see them off, gritted his teeth slightly, and said via voice transmission:

"Is there anything my lord needs Feng to do?"

"No need."

Yang Jue waved his hand, turned and left without saying much.

Feng Ping watched him go away, hesitated to speak, finally heaved a long sigh, sat down, and started to drink one cup after another.

Is seizing the heir apparent the root cause of the chaos in Qingzhou?
Walking on the long street, Yang Yu felt turmoil in his heart.

The situation, which was thought to be clear, became somewhat chaotic at this moment.

Longyuan Palace, Xu Wenji, Wei Zhengxian, aristocratic families, Jianghu sects, Lianshengjiao...

And this Fengping.

"Who is behind you?"

Yang Jue's eyes were dim.

Any analysis of the situation is based on massive amounts of intelligence.

King Longyuan's family affairs are by no means well known.

How did he know about things that he had never heard of in the archives of the Six Doors, a family that had fallen into ruin, and Feng Ping, the great enemy?
Behind Feng Ping, there must be forces.

"It's a mess..."

Leading the dragon horse, Yang Jue sighed, but he didn't change his mind.

However, before that...

Call ~
After walking through several long streets and squares, Yang prison stopped and looked into the distance.

At the end of the long street, there is a mansion with a large area. In front of the nobleman's gate, a group of elite soldiers are patrolling and heavily guarded.

Here, it is the mansion of Wei Zhengxian, No.1 in Qingzhou Martial Arts.

Near here, pay attention to his eyes especially.

"Stare, stare."

Yang Jue sneered in his heart, ignored the few elite soldiers walking towards him, turned around, and didn't choose to deliver the letter.

Instead, he found a blacksmith's shop, ordered a large amount of metal, and bought a large amount of medicinal materials. Finally, under the gaze of everyone, he chose an inn to stay.

It amazed the people who were watching.

After placing the dragon horse properly, he asked for a large pot of hot water to boil the medicine.

"Wei Zhengxian, what exactly are you thinking?"

Swallowing the golden beans and soaking his whole body in the scalding liquid medicine, Yang Jue's mind was still spinning.

Is delivery important?
unimportant.

What matters is Wei Zhengxian's attitude.

This Qingzhou Martial Arts No. 1, holding 15 elite generals, is too heavy.

But Yang Yu was a little uncertain about his attitude.

He didn't come here in hiding. On the one hand, he wanted to attract the people behind him, and on the other hand, he also wanted to see the general's attitude.

But until he reached the mansion, he didn't notice the general's movements.

It seemed that he didn't know anything and didn't want to do anything.

"call!"

"Suck!"

Thinking in his heart, Yang Jue took out the Xuanlei Stone.

The palm-sized Xuanlei Stone weighs about a hundred catties, and it is not light. What is especially rare is that the tentacles are warm and numb.

There seems to be a breath of thunder and fire that has not dissipated.

This is undoubtedly the best weapon training material.

Of course, it is also very good for body training.

"Unfortunately, the portion is less."

Weighed it twice and let it go, Yang Qiu felt a little regretful.

This Black Thunder Stone is good for everything, but it is too rare, and the price is too expensive. The few blacksmiths he went to before have Black Thunder Stone.

But that price is really not cheap.

He spent all the gold and silver on his body, but he only got seven or eight profound thunder stones, less than one-tenth of what he needed to melt gold and refine his body.

Although he has not refined this divine seed, he also knows the information about this magical power.

To refine the body with gold, what is needed is not the metal itself, but the "gold and iron gas" in it, and this gas is integrated into the blood, so that the blood circulates and penetrates into the subtleties of the whole body.

Change yourself from the inside out.

When it reaches the skin membrane, it means it is done.

"The energy of gold and iron on Xuanyingzhu is about to be exhausted. With the help of Jindouzi, it may take half a month to refine this divine seed..."

Yang Jue adjusted his breath and blood.

The entry of supernatural powers only depends on whether they fit or not. After being refined by the cauldron of gluttony, he naturally has no such thing as being unable to enter.

Therefore, the only difficulty for him to cultivate this supernatural power.

Instead, it is gold and iron.

Pig iron can be seen everywhere, and there is no shortage of it, but where is he willing?
Although it can be strengthened or even changed in the future, it will take a lot of time.

"Not urgent……"

Yang Yu slowly closed his eyes.

His keen five senses allowed him to feel the sound of breathing outside the house, but he didn't care anymore.

If you are willing to wait, then wait.

……

……

The Sirius Pass occupies a huge area, and the divisions are very clear.

The east and south are residential areas, while the west and north are where the army is stationed. The latter two occupy [-]% of the pass.

Looking from afar, the banners and flags are like a forest, but when you get closer, you can hear the sound of thunderous footsteps, the army is practicing.

In the barracks, in a small barracks.

"The kid went back after arriving at the door. He didn't choose to deliver the letter, but bought some medicinal materials and went back to the inn?"

Listen to the report of your subordinates.

Not to mention Xiao Jingfeng, even Xiao Qingfeng was a little dazed, a little confused and astonished.

"My lord, is there any fraud?"

With suspicion on his black face, Xiao Jingfeng turned around and looked at his young master.

"You ask me, who do I ask?"

Xiao Qingfeng frowned and shook his head.

"Is it worth being so suspicious of a border crosser?!"

At this time, a majestic voice came, and an old man in armor came striding forward, with a fierce look on his body and a cold face.

"Uncle clan."

Xiao Qingfeng and the others bowed slightly and asked him to sit down.

"no!"

The old man waved his hand, and gave Xiao Qingfeng a meaningful look:

"There seems to be a change at the foot of Liuji Mountain. This old man wants to invite the general to go there, and he will stay soon..."
