It was the first time that Huo Yunchao saw such a bloody and horrific scene. He retched for a while and then forced himself to stand upright. When he saw clearly the trembling female family members and children, their dirty faces were filled with fear and anger, his head stopped functioning. for a while.

The secret guard noticed that Huo Yunchao's face was pale, and mistakenly thought that Huo Yunchao was frightened. Without saying a word, he thrust the blood-stained silver knife handle into Huo Yunchao's hand: "Master Marquis, this is the sharp blade given by His Majesty. "

His subtext is: Don't be afraid of the Marquis, Your Majesty will protect you.

Huo Yunchao lowered his head and saw the bright red and dazzling residual blood on the silver-white blade, and his heart skipped a beat. Then he caught one of the girls looking at him with admiration, no, at the secret guard beside him.

This little girl is not very old, estimated to be five or six years old. She looks at the dark guard with eyes full of admiration and trust.

Huo Yunchao thought he was dazzled, so he couldn't help but look at the little girl a few more times, turned to ask the secret guard, "Did you save the little girl?"

The secret guard followed Huo Yunchao's line of sight and looked into the eyes of the little girl. He was a little embarrassed by the other party's too clear eyes and simply replied: "The gangster wants to use that little girl as a hostage."

Huo Yunchao looked at the dark guard Jia, then at the little girl, and suddenly held the dark guard Jia's hand with his eyes shining: "I will definitely ask County Magistrate Wang to give you a big reward!"

The secret guard watched in confusion as Huo Yunchao became excited again, brandishing the sword given by him and shouted loudly to the retching and frightened scholars: "Scholars, this is the sharp blade given by your majesty! The villain is bloody and cruel, killing the baby girl. , The crime deserves it! The sword given by the emperor kills the villain, and your majesty is protecting his people! May your majesty be blessed in the sky, long live, long live, long live!"

Where have readers who only read books by sages heard such inspiring speeches?

They all looked at the excited Huo Yunchao with their mouths open. The first thing they noticed was the residual blood on the silver-white knife, and they started to retch again out of instinct.

After their chaotic minds cleared up what Huo Yunchao meant, and saw Huo Yunchao shouting long live in the direction of the capital, their panicked hearts were greatly comforted, and they all knelt on the ground and shouted in unison:

"May your Majesty be blessed with great blessings, long live, long live, long live!"

The women and children in the cave also followed suit and shouted long live His Majesty.

The power of faith brought great spiritual comfort to everyone in the cave. The broken limbs and blood on the ground were no longer a scary thing. After Huo Yunchao's speech, it became an example of Emperor Yong'an blessing the people of the world!

The secret guard was the first to react. He stared at Huo Yunchao as he walked around the cave tightly holding the imperial sword. As he walked, he slashed into the void and said plausibly: "Your Majesty is the True Dragon Emperor! Your Majesty will protect you." His people, the sword given by His Majesty can purify the grievances and allow those who died in vain to enter the cycle of life and death instead of becoming lonely ghosts!"

Lu Changping silently memorized Huo Yunchaonian's words without missing a word.

After Huo Yunchao's performance, the women and children in the cave gained new faith - Emperor Yong'an would protect his people!

Huo Yunchao's set of operations successfully instilled new beliefs in everyone in the cave, and everyone returned to the ground from the cave in high spirits.

Completely contrary to the expected image of crying and miserable people, this group of people were all smiling and in frighteningly good spirits!

County Magistrate Wang noticed this strange scene and quickly pulled Huo Yunchao aside: "Yunchao, what did you do to them? Did you make some promises that you shouldn't have made?"

Huo Yunchao waved his hand to deny: "It's not that I didn't! Sir, I just helped them find a new and correct belief..."

County Magistrate Wang was extremely anxious. He interrupted Huo Yunchao and urged him: "Don't give me any excuses. Don't talk so much about everything. Please explain it clearly to me quickly!"

After Huo Yunchao finished speaking a few words, he looked at Magistrate Wang's unpredictable face and said with a smile: "My lord, am I particularly witty?"

If it were other things, Magistrate Wang might have joked with Huo Yunchao. He really didn't expect that Huo Yunchao would come up with such a cool operation, but he accidentally found the secret to his successful official career!

Magistrate Wang asked several questions one after another: "Yun Chao, how did you come up with this trick? Aren't you too busy? Didn't you say that you feel sleepy and have a headache when you read books about officialdom? Where did you learn how to get promoted and make a fortune? The secret?"

"Forehead……"

Huo Yunchao scratched his head and replied with some embarrassment: "Sir, if you don't speak secretly, I won't be afraid of you laughing at me. I was frightened by the bloody scenes in the cave. My lord, I was really frightened. , I have lived so long, how have I seen severed limbs and residual blood? At this time, I had a knife in my hand, and I felt confident in my heart, so I thought of the ultimate purpose of those gangsters who took advantage of the chaos to do these things, and I also needed to find a belief. Support."

He really had an idea, how could he be well-read and well-informed?

Magistrate Wang was speechless after hearing this answer.

At this moment, he didn't know whether to praise Huo Yunchao for his intelligence or scold him for being as cowardly as a mouse.

Huo Yun met Magistrate Wang without saying a word, and continued: "Sir, your Majesty is the real dragon emperor who is immune to evil spirits. It is better for the people to believe in you than to believe in those evil gods who come out of nowhere. Your Majesty has the world in mind and works hard to govern. , it is the right thing to lead the people of the world to believe in Your Majesty."

Magistrate Wang patted Huo Yunchao on the shoulder: "Yunchao, you are right!"

Not only the women and children in the cave, Magistrate Wang found that the scholars who followed Huo Yunchao up the mountain also had a completely new outlook on life, and their eyes were brighter.

Huo Yunchao realized that Magistrate Wang had been persuaded by him, and took the opportunity to make a request: "Sir, my development path is in the right direction, but if I want to promote it, I need you to lay a solid foundation. We have to give more things to the people. The tangible benefits are tangible.”

Magistrate Wang's eyes widened and he said angrily: "What tangible benefits do you want? The property confiscated before is barely enough to be divided among these refugees!"

He originally did not want to pay the people who built the river embankments, but Huo Yunchao said that it was to improve efficiency and to allow the refugees to adapt and integrate into the new environment as soon as possible.

Huo Yunchao reminded: "Sir, as the saying goes, if you want a horse to run fast, you have to let it eat grass. We want to turn this bad thing today into a good thing. It is not enough to actually eliminate those bad guys. We must cut the grass. To eliminate the root cause, we must find their lair and search for the stolen money that they used to make money through fortune-seeking rituals. Zhou Aniu’s little guy alone can find so much money, and the stolen money and stolen goods of the big and small bosses are unknown. how much."

The more County Magistrate Wang listened, the brighter his eyes became, but he refused to let go: "You just draw a pie for me, what if I can't find it?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I have two top talents!"
