After 300 years of cultivating immortals, he suddenly discovered that he was a martial arts man

After all, the nearest distance between the edge of the deep pit and the Honghe River is more than ten miles, and connecting the two means creating a large river that is more than ten miles long out of thin air.

This is definitely the power of the gods!

Boom!

After the flying ash flew into the sky with the wind, there was a loud noise from the ground, and then it trembled violently, like an earthquake, making many people unable to stand still.

Immediately afterwards, a huge gap was suddenly opened in the ground ahead!

Starting from the edge of the deep pit and huge ravine, it quickly spread towards Honghe.

Like a bolt of lightning splitting across the ground, it reached the edge of the Hong River in the blink of an eye.

Rumble!

The moment the crack reached the Honghe River, the ground around it collapsed rapidly, forming a huge gully with a width of hundreds of feet in an instant.

The torrential flood water seemed to have found a vent all of a sudden, and immediately rushed in along this gully, and quickly flowed towards the existing deep pit.

At the same time, patches of dark clouds floated from the sky, lightning flashed and thundered in an instant, and the torrential rain poured down, falling into ravines, Honghe River, and deep pits.

Whoa!

The water waves roared, causing the ground to tremble, as if a new water dragon was being born, announcing its arrival to the world!

"Master Divine Power!"

"Immortal Venerable Divine Might!"

Liu Litao, Chen Tong, Xu Feng'an, Zhou Hongyi, Liu Zhizhen, and Chen Ying who came to join in the fun all knelt on the ground and bowed to the surging Honghe water.

This is bowing down to Haohao's natural power, and also bowing down to Cui Heng.

As for the two thousand people, they had already prostrated themselves in prostration, chanting titles such as "Taishou Immortal", "Lu God", "Juhe God" and so on.

Obviously this is true and Cui Heng has been regarded as a god.

The common people watching from a distance on the city wall also fell to their knees on the ground. Their admiration and love for Cui Heng had reached an unbelievable level, and the joy in their hearts was even more indescribable.

At this moment, Cui Heng was standing beside the newborn big river and big lake, with his eyes slightly closed and his arms open, enjoying the feeling of white and red light continuously pouring into his body.

The white light and red light, which had already exceeded one foot in height, were raised again, raising the height by three inches in one go!

At the same time, he also realized in his heart that after this emotional outburst, the people in Lujun City could no longer provide him with emotional feedback of joy and love.

With a slight sway of Cui Heng's figure, he flew to the sky in an instant, looking down at the mountains and rivers below, and murmured: "It's time to win the position of state shepherd!"

……

The Wang clan of Langya and the Xie clan of Pingshan teamed up and led an army of tens of thousands to attack Lu County City.

In the end, the whole army was wiped out!

Once the news came out, the whole world was shocked, the world was shaken, and the Wang and Xie families were furious.

The counties in Fengzhou moved after hearing the news, and canceled their original plan to visit the new prefect of Lu County.

At the same time, various spy missions were dispatched to investigate the details of the battle at that time and Cui Heng's background.

But no matter how you inquire, the news you finally find out is always unbelievable. It's all about gods, and it's hard to tell whether it's true or false.

Just when the guards of the prefectures in Fengzhou were in a state of mind, spying on the reality of Lu County.

Cui Heng, the prefect of Lu County, suddenly sent an envoy to send a letter to the prefects of all counties.

Concise and concise.

"I want to be a shepherd in Fengzhou, and I hope everyone is safe."

Chapter 92 The rich wine and meat stinks, and there are frozen bones on the road

Outside the official office of the prefect of Lu County.

Countless people knelt on the side of the road, not to avenge their grievances, but to keep Cui Heng.

At this time, more than ten days had passed since Wang Qinghe and Xie Beixing were hung on the flagpole of the gate tower.

Cui Heng's letter to the prefects of the counties has long been known.

Naturally, the people in Lujun City already knew about it.

So, starting three days ago, people gathered outside the county sheriff's office to petition, hoping that Cui Heng could stay as prefect of Lu County.

Although in the past when Liu Litao was the governor, the common people lived and worked in peace and contentment, but they were afraid of comparison in everything.

After Cui Heng came here, he distributed the land to the local tyrants, and cleaned up all the merchants, families, sects and other forces that oppressed the people. The living standards of the people have improved by countless levels.

As long as you are a normal person, you will hope that the place where you live will always be managed by a chief official like Cui Heng.

Inside the sheriff's office.

Liu Litao complained helplessly: "My lord is so kind to you, the common people can't bear to let you go, how dare you ask your lord how to deal with this matter?"

Cui Heng was still looking at the map of the thirteen counties in Fengzhou, and said with a smile: "You are the prefect, you should already have some ideas."

Liu Litao was slightly silent when he heard the words, nodded and said: "My lord's eyes are like a torch, this subordinate has indeed thought of a way."

Cui Heng nodded lightly and said, "Speak."

Liu Litao said in a deep voice: "My lord, what the people are worried about is that after you leave, if you change to other county guards, those who have been purged will fight back and ruin the hard-won life now.

"As long as the people know that even if you leave Lu County, you will still pay attention to this place, and the government orders you made before will continue to be implemented here, and the people should be able to feel at ease."

"You mean..." Cui Heng thought for a while, then smiled lightly, "Even if I take the position of Fengzhou Mu, don't let go of the jurisdiction over Lu County?"

"My lord, this is what the people want." Liu Litao asked, bowing and prostrating, "After your lord becomes the shepherd of Fengzhou, can you follow the example of the governor system at the beginning of the founding of the Jin Dynasty and make Lu County directly under the jurisdiction of Changfeng Prefecture?"

Changfeng Prefecture, also known as Changfeng County, is the capital of Fengzhou and the official office of Fengzhou Mu.

If Lu County is directly under the jurisdiction of the state capital, there is no need to set up a county guard.

It is only necessary to retain the county magistrate and captain to handle political and military affairs, and at the same time send an official directly under the state capital to regularly inspect the entire army and report back to the state capital.

This situation is similar to the state pastor at the beginning of the founding of the Jin Dynasty, who was also called the state governor at that time.

At that time, the world was initially determined, and the imperial court divided the thirteen prefectures into 240 counties in order to divide local powers, which were independent and equal to each other.

The central government will regularly send governors to inspect local government affairs, and then report the inspection results to the imperial court, so as to maintain direct jurisdiction over local government affairs and military affairs.

At that time, the territory of a state was only within the scope of inspections. The governor of the state did not have direct administrative and military power, not even the government office.

The inspection scope is still not fixed, and the location will be changed every year.

The mountains are high and the roads are far away, the boats and cars are tired, the power is small, the benefits are poor, and they are genuine coolies.

However, this situation lasted only a few decades before being interrupted.

Because the counties are independent and the local powers are too scattered, they can't resist the rebels who rise up from time to time, and they can't suppress the major sects and families. Therefore, the Jin Dynasty can only change the governor of the state to the governor of the state. Officer, prime minister, a state's military and political power.

"In ancient times, there was a governor who inspected a prefecture, but there is no special case where a prefect sent a governor to inspect a county." Cui Heng smiled, and did not object to this. Fujun', who does Liu Juncheng think can be appointed?"

"Of course it's Chenfu County." Liu Litao understood what Cui Heng meant when he heard the official name.

And it is indeed Hui Shi who is the most suitable.

Now Huishi has concurrently served as the 21th Fuxian County, if he was not temporarily sent by Cui Heng to deliver the letter, he might have concurrently served as the [-] Fuxian County in the entire county by this time.

In order to implement Cui Heng's new decree in all counties, Hui Shi has offended all the families, sects, and merchants in the county to death. Many landlords have a villain with Hui Shi's name tied in their homes, secretly enough every day. he.

There is absolutely no room for relaxation.

In fact, if he didn't know that Hui Shi was the sharpest knife in Cui Heng's hand, Liu Litao would have tried to persuade Cui Heng to appoint Hui Shi as the prefect of Lu County.

The people will certainly not object.

After all, Hui Shi has long been on the irreconcilable opposition to those who want to fight back, and will never stop dying.

"Hui Shi is indeed a good candidate." Cui Heng nodded slightly, "Since Fujun is settled, there is still a Juncheng, and you will choose after you are ready in the next period of time."

"Juncheng?" Liu Litao was taken aback when he heard the words, isn't he the Juncheng, but he quickly realized and said pleasantly, "My lord, are you going to take your subordinates to Changfeng Prefecture?"

"I'll take you there after choosing a successor." Cui Heng smiled lightly, "There must always be someone beside Zhou Mu who can help with government affairs. You have done a good job in recent days. By the way, let me tell Tong Chen, Let him find a successor too."

"Thank you, my lord!" Liu Litao knelt down excitedly on the spot, his whole body trembling with excitement, he never dreamed that he would have the opportunity to be a master of the state in his life.

There are many main subordinate officials of the state pastor, the most important of which is not to drive the history, to assist the state pastor in managing the government affairs of a state, the authority and status are extremely high.

If we only talk about the territory and authority of the jurisdiction, the current state is even more than the prime minister of the kingdom of kings and hegemony when the kingdoms were fighting each other thousands of years ago!

"It doesn't have to be like this. How you do it depends on yourself." Cui Heng waved his hand and asked with a smile, "By the way, where is Huishi delivering the letter now?"

"My lord, early this morning, Chenfu County sent someone back to report the progress, saying that the eleven counties have been delivered." Liu Litao said respectfully, "There are still Luo'an County and Changfeng Prefecture that have not been delivered."

"So, he should be going to Luo'an County next." Cui Heng thought for a while, then laughed, "I remember that the Luo'an County Sheriff is called Ren Yuankui, and it is said that he has obtained two of the Qiwang surnames. Home support?"

There are two necessary conditions for succession to the state priest.

One is to get the support of two of the Qiwang surnames, or one of Youdao Yigong and Baolin Temple, and the other is to have another current state pastoral platform to express support.

This means that Ren Yuankui is now only short of gaining the support of a state pastor before he can follow the normal procedure to succeed Fengzhou pastor.

"Yes, my lord." Liu Litao nodded, "This Ren Yuankui is the best at drilling, and has a very good relationship with major families, sects, and merchants. It is said that he has already started negotiating with several state shepherds, hoping to gain support from them. .”

"I'm afraid it's not unconditional to get the support of other state pastors." Cui Heng laughed.

"I heard that they want to use the taxes of all the people in Fengzhou as a bargaining chip." Liu Litao is quite well informed, "It's just that the distribution ratio has not been negotiated, and it has not been decided this time."

"Tsk tsk, use the taxes of the people of a state as a bargaining chip." Cui Hengzhu turned his head to look in the direction of Luo'an County, and sneered, "This is really a no-cost business!"

……

Luo'an County used to be the richest place in Fengzhou, and even served as the capital of Fengzhou in the previous dynasty.

Although it has lost its former glory, it is also the place where the military strength of Fengzhou's thirteen counties is second only to Changfeng Prefecture.

When the former State Shepherd, Cao Quan, was still alive, Luo'an County Sheriff Ren Yuankui was a bit self-respecting, and directly ignored the State Shepherd's order to punish the rebels and rebels.

This directly caused the Yan thief rebels to be unstoppable for a short period of time, causing them to quickly capture several large counties as if they were in a no-man's land.

A few months ago, Cao Quan was assassinated and killed, and the Yan thief rebels were also defeated. Ren Yuankui moved his mind and began to desperately contact the various forces. After paying a considerable price, he finally won the support of the Jiangnan Ye family and the Nanhe Jiang family .

Next, as long as he gets the support of a current state pastor, he can become Fengzhou pastor as he wishes.

In order to realize his dream, the opportunity for Ren Yuankui now is to hold a banquet at home every day, or to entertain the envoys of the major forces, or to welcome people sent by other state pastors.

Of course, the most solemn banquet must be when Biejia sent by other state shepherds and even the state shepherd himself are invited.

Like today.

Youzhou Mu bid farewell to Wei Xiong, who came to discuss with Ren Yuankui about the election of Fengzhou Mu.

This is the third negotiation.

According to the usual practice, as long as the result of this negotiation can satisfy both parties, the matter can basically be settled.

Therefore, Ren Yuankui attaches great importance to it.

Three cattle and sheep were prepared for the banquet, twelve kinds of candied fruit, sixteen kinds of melons and fruits, nine kinds of rare wild birds, monkeys, snakes, rabbits and other native game, and countless fine wines for aging.

The whole banquet hall is filled with the aroma of wine and meat.

Even if more than 100 people are invited to eat this kind of banquet, it is more than enough, and it may not be able to finish it.

But in fact, the only "dinners" were Ren Yuankui, governor of Luo'an County, and Biejia Weixiong of Youzhou.

Of course, there are also 72 musicians playing music on the sidelines, and 24 young girls in tulle swaying and dancing at the banquet.

However, they are not qualified to taste the delicacies at the banquet.

Wei Xiong was already in his sixties, but his physique was still strong. He was a big man with a height of nearly nine feet and a beard.

Not like a civil servant, more like a general.

He squinted his eyes to appreciate the graceful figure of the girl dancer, pointed to two of them casually, and said with a smile, "Taishou Ren, these two are good, send them to my room to play at night."

"Haha, as long as you think about it, even if you want all of these, you can do it!" Ren Yuankui laughed, "These are all our carefully selected chicks, each of them is [-] years old, and has never been exposed to rain or dew." .”

"No, no, no, you won't be able to show off when you get older." Wei Xiong swept his eyes over the girls' half-covered delicate bodies, shook his head, and said, "If I were ten years younger, I would definitely fight Happy, haha!"

"Don't worry about it, you're still as old as a dragon and a tiger." Ren Yuankui poured Wei Xiong a glass of wine and said flatteringly, "It must be majestic."

"Haha, I just like to listen to you talk, well, I'll add two more girls." Wei Xiong laughed and ordered two more girl dancers, and suddenly he changed the subject, "But, fun is fun, you can Don't think about asking this old man to help you bargain with Shen Zhoumu."

Shenzhou Mu is Shen Yu, Youzhou Mu.

"It's natural, it's natural." Ren Yuankui nodded repeatedly, then lowered his voice and asked, "Don't drive, what does Shen Zhoumu mean, is it settled?"
