A look at the city of people [comprehensive]

However, it is said that the True Immortal Ruyi crossed the Tongtian River back then and went to the country of Chechi on the other side.Just like Gu Guozhu fooled him before, because of the relationship between Sun Wukong and his party, Ruyi Zhenxian, a Taoist man, was not rejected by Che Chi's monks and Buddhas, and he even successfully won him over because the tiger, deer, and sheep were exposed and beaten. After being killed, the Taoist who was disliked by the king can be said to have both sides.

And Zimuhe is really extraordinary, Ruyi Zhenxian soon made a name for himself in Che Chi Country.

It is true that there are many children born in the Che Chi Kingdom, but they are also leading the wolf into the house-in less than three years, the Xiliang Kingdom attacked on a large scale. After the Che Chi Kingdom failed to resist, it became a subsidiary state of the Xiliang Kingdom.

Speaking of Xiliang Kingdom's money for raising soldiers, a large part of it also came from the people of Chechi Kingdom, that is, the begging money they sent to Ruyi Zhenxian, and only a small part of the begging money went to Ruyi Zhenxian. Most of them still came to the treasury of Xiliang Kingdom.

This may sound a bit unkind, but there is nothing to say about winners and losers.

Then, True Immortal Ruyi was concocted in the same way, and his reputation spread all the way eastward.In fact, this route coincides with the previous route of Monkey King and his party to a large extent. After all, after Monkey King and his party left, the monsters on this route basically went to seven or eight. The big monsters on one side were either "retired after success", or were killed by Monkey King, and the only ones left were the less high-profile monsters, and the little monsters who didn't have much lethality, and they were all able to be killed. Immortal Ruyi and the Bull Demon King behind him were so overwhelmed that it was smooth sailing for True Immortal Ruyi.

And the human relations with the human race along the way are basically handled by Gu Guozhu's subordinate group arranged by Master Gu, so that True Immortal Ruyi can only spread the gospel, and don't have to worry about the rest.

Of course, Gu Guozhu only seems to be so devoted to True Immortal Ruyi. In fact, he also aims to open up a business route, just like the Silk Road on the east side.

At the beginning, the Silk Road was gradually formed by Zhang Qian, an official from the East, who was sent to the Western Regions to spread the culture of the East. Today, the "Silk Road" in Xiliang Kingdom is spread by the Ruyi Immortal. Take the lead, but the ultimate goal is to start with the same goal.

The reason why it is called "Zhang Qian, an official of the Eastern Land" is because it is different from Zhang Qian, an official of the Western Han Dynasty in official history. This is not to say that Zhang Qian, an official of the Eastern Land, is not from the Western Han Dynasty. If it really exists, who knows if Zhang Qian, an official from the East, encountered all kinds of monsters when he was on a mission to the Western Regions like Xuanzang when he was studying in the West?

Having said that, this business route from Xiliang Guodong to Datang has reached a large scale now.It connected the Hexi Corridor of the Tang Dynasty to the current capital of the Xiliang Kingdom. During this period, it connected nearly ten countries, large and small, and the trade exchanges became more and more frequent. Since the Xiliang Kingdom has established diplomatic relations with the Tang Dynasty, it is unlikely that Gu Guozhu will meet in the next few years. Go to Chang'an and have a face-to-face friendly exchange with Tang Wang.

And that's not the point.

cough.

In fact, the point is that this business road is basically controlled by the Xiliang State. Although some sections of the road do not seem to be the case, in fact it is still controlled by the Xiliang State behind the scenes. First, the Xiliang State is rich and the people are strong. It is only natural to occupy an active position on the business road. Secondly, it is still due to the particularity of this business road:

Even though this business road is a national road, it is not very deterrent to criminals or robbers. In fact, because of the opening of the business road, more evil forces have been bred to cause man-made disasters, and natural disasters cannot be ignored. It doesn't have to be easy. If there is another natural disaster, the entire army may be wiped out. It can be said that such a business path that can bring prosperity is also accompanied by danger and blood behind it, and there may even be a lot of bones.

In order to minimize the dangers in the business path, Gu Guozhu had to manage up and down.Needless to say, in the mortal kingdom, no king would refuse the prosperity of the country, but for other unusual characters, such as the land god, it is necessary to establish a good relationship with them, not to be stingy with tribute, and to satisfy as much incense as they want , If things go on like this, the cannibals have soft mouths and short hands, and the land gods have been eroded by "sugar-coated cannonballs" without knowing it, and have become the umbrella of this business; Of course, most of them still adopt the "Huairou" policy, just like the Ruyi Zhenxian.

Don't look at the monsters who occupy the land as kings or are feared by mortals, they seem to be very majestic, but in fact most of them live a miserable life.The big monster is alright, but the little monsters are not strong in mana, and they still need to eat, drink, and scatter, and it is not easy to get mixed into the mortal world.

And these days there are so many Taoists, monks and Buddhas who have real skills, not many real ones, and they are more than enough to deal with little monsters alone, so monsters can't hide in the mortal world, they can only retreat to the barren mountains, what's more There are also Taoist priests who chased them and hunted them, so that they had to flee around, living a life of starvation or even starvation.

All Gu Guozhu has to do is to order them to be safe.

Or hire them, let them work on the commercial road, or do odd jobs in the post station, or be responsible for protecting the passing caravan, and the more clever ones can also come to work in Xiliang Kingdom, which is the worst, and they can't even transform into a complete form. Or even those who can’t change their shape can find suitable jobs, such as foot strength, self-organized circus or something-360 lines, and the best in every line.

However, it is not so easy to operate. There are good and bad monsters. How to coexist peacefully with the human race is one aspect, and those behaviors that do not conform to the human race's moral norms are also another aspect. Besides, not all monsters can be treated softly... In short, in the Gu Guozhu spent a lot of effort on this matter, but fortunately, he is now on the right track, and everything looks so orderly.

Is it really?

Hao Er is from Chenjiazhuang. He is going to marry a wife in the coming year, so he wants to earn more money so that his wife can live a better life after entering the house, so he goes to the city to see if he can find a job.

It was a coincidence that a bodyguard agency in the city was temporarily recruiting people.

Hao Er listened to it, and the salary offered by the escort was very tempting to him, but Hao Er also knew himself very well. too far from home.It’s just that Hao Er turned around but couldn’t find a suitable job, so he gritted his teeth and went to the Escort Bureau for a try. As soon as he passed by, a big man with the appearance of an Escort head took a look at him and asked him a few words routinely. It was nothing more than whether he had ever walked a dart with someone or gone out with a caravan before. Hao Er could only shake his head again and again, thinking that he would not be able to do this job.

Who would have thought that the head of the escort didn't look down on him, and said that they just lack a decent-looking person. After all, they have already set the number of people with the caravan. Just be stable and reliable.

As soon as Hao Er heard that there was something interesting, he quickly promoted himself.

The head of the bodyguard also thought that Hao Er looked quite like a bodyguard, and he was somewhat satisfied, so he asked casually, "Where are you from, little brother?"

Hao Er smiled and said, "It's from Chenjiazhuang."

"Where?" The escort was stunned for a moment, "That Chenjiazhuang on the other side of Tongtian River?"

Hao Er was a little strange, but still nodded: "Yes."

The head of the escort was immediately happy: "Good brother, it's you!"

Hao Er rubbed the back of his head, the head of the escort had relatives in Chenjiazhuang, otherwise why did he accept him without saying a word when he heard that he belonged to Chenjiazhuang?But for this kind of thing, it's not easy for Hao Er to ask the escort head directly, so he just took it like this and asked the escort head about the specific work.

It turned out that they were in charge of escorting a caravan to Wuji Country this time, and it took two months to go back and forth, and the reward Hao Er could get was worth what he could save in the past year.This time, there were thirty bodyguards dispatched by the bodyguard agency, and this bodyguard agency had a good reputation, so Hao Er was not too worried about what might go wrong, so he agreed after a while.

And Hao Er also knew the name of the bodyguard, Pang Zhen, known as Pang bodyguard.

Two days later, they packed up and escorted the caravan on the road.

The hard journey was a bit hard, but Hao Er felt that there was nothing to complain about, and he quickly got along with other bodyguards, chatting and laughing with them while resting.

Seeing this, Escort Pang slipped over and patted Hao Er on the shoulder: "Young man, I am very optimistic about you, you are indeed from Chenjiazhuang."

Hao Er: "??" Why do you really have relatives in Chenjiazhuang?Or did he marry a girl from Chenjiazhuang?

Pang Escort said to himself: "Have you ever thought about finishing this vote and continuing to do it? It's not me bragging, our Fuwei Escort Agency can be said to be the best in this industry," he raised his thumb, Then he said mysteriously: "Not only is the treatment good, the key is that there is someone behind us, and he is an adult, you can't even think of who it is."

Hao Er: "..." Is it really okay to reveal it to him like this?

Escort Pang's eyes were shining, and Hao Er was too embarrassed to refuse, so he smiled dryly: "Let me think about it."

"Think about it, think about it," Pang Biaotou spoke very well, but in a blink of an eye he came closer and said, "Don't you want to know who it is?"

Hao Er was stunned for a moment before realizing that Escort Pang was referring to the big man behind the Escort. Hao Er didn't know what expression to put on. Isn't this a secret?Besides, he wasn't really curious. After all, the Fuwei Escort Bureau was so big, of course there must be someone behind them to support them, not to mention that they rely on the capital, so there shouldn't be too many high-ranking officials.Or is Pang Biaotou actually testing him?

Hao Er was not sure for a while, so he could only say vaguely: "Let me think about it first, think about it first."

Pang Biaotou said straightforwardly: "Okay, come to me when you think about it."

Hao Er: "..." I always feel that this escort does not look like a serious escort.

What should a serious dart head look like?Full of beards, sharp eyes like an eagle of prey, holding a big knife?Anyway, among these few items, Escort Pang didn't fit any of them. Hao Er murmured in his heart for a while, thinking that after finishing this vote, he would go back to Chenjiazhuang to get married.

However, Hao Er still guessed the big man behind Fuwei Escort. If there are many powerful and powerful officials in Xiliang, of course the most eye-catching one is His Majesty the King.Speaking of this, Hao Er is still a little uncomfortable. Chenjiazhuang originally belonged to the Chechi Kingdom, and it is separated from the original Xiliang Kingdom by the Tongtian River, but the national conditions between the two countries are very different. Anyway, Chenjiazhuang is a There are men and women, and most of the women are inside the master, unlike Xiliang Kingdom where the female master is outside, and now that Chenjiazhuang is included in the territory of Xiliang Kingdom, Chenjiazhuang has also undergone a lot of changes.Not to mention other things, there are several young and strong men in Chenjiazhuang who have joined the women's family, and more women have gone out of the house to work.

It's just that she doesn't get used to it, but Hao Er still respects His Majesty the King very much. She is much more wise and powerful than the original king of Che Chi Kingdom. Looking at the prosperity of the country and the people's safety, it can be seen that their lives are much richer than before.

Hao Er was thinking about it, Pang Biaotou came over: "Have you thought about it yet?"

Hao Er subconsciously said: "Your Majesty the King."

Pang Biaotou was taken aback: "You guessed it right all at once!"

Hao Er: "..." No, he is a blind cat meeting a dead mouse.

Pang Biaotou didn't understand Hao Er's sadness, and continued to praise him: "You are really good."

Hao Ergeng made up his mind to finish this temporary job, and he went back to Chenjiazhuang to get married.

This determination is good, but what should happen will still happen.

That's right, after a few days, they came to a station to rest.The caravan and the others gathered together, and the ones on the Escort side had delicious food and drink on the other side, and they even drank alcohol. You must know that they are not allowed to drink at ordinary times, but now it can only be said that the post station is heavily guarded, so they are more or less relaxed. Tight skin.

Hao Er was dragged and drank a few cups. He was not very old, and he didn't usually drink much. Now after being fed a few rice wine, he became a little dazed, and stared blankly at the other punches with his head propped up. He drank and ate vegetables, and smirked a few times during the period. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was drunk.Everyone didn't care about him, he should eat and drink, Pang Biaotou stepped on the stool, rolled up his sleeves and punched others, and even lost.

Hao Er was confused and thought: Sure enough, he is not a serious escort.

In a daze, Hao Er actually saw a cat's tail, he thought slowly: Who brought the cat here?

Nope.

Hao Er wondered if someone in the inn had raised the cat. He rubbed his eyes to see what the cat looked like, mainly because he felt that the cat's tail was too long for a cat's tail.

Unexpectedly, when I looked closely, I saw more tails, not exactly the same one.

Hao Er: "???"

what's the situation?

Hao Er rubbed his eyes hard again, this time he could see more clearly, but also more blurred, otherwise how could he see a cat's tail growing out of Pang Biaotou's buttocks?It's still shaking.

Hao Er: "!!!"

Hao Ersheng woke up from the fright. He clattered the bench and the table he was sitting on and fell to the ground.The sound made everyone in the room look over, Pang Biao tilted his head: "What's the matter?"

Hao Er trembled: "You, you, you are a monster!"

Escort Pang was also taken aback. He touched his tail, and then he calmed down. No, strictly speaking, he was not that calm. He just looked at Hao Er, A little puzzled, he said: "Are you afraid? You are not afraid, are you? If you are afraid, it will be very difficult for us."

Hao Er: "...you, you?"

The bodyguards in the same room looked at him without saying a word.

Pang Biaotou came over, Hao Er didn't know whether it was because his legs were weak from drinking, or because he was frightened, anyway, he just didn't move. When Pang Biaotou leaned over, he heard Pang Biaotou say : "Why are you afraid? You are not from Chenjiazhuang?"

Hao Er: "Huh?? What does this have to do with me being from Chenjiazhuang? Don't you say that there are monsters in Chenjiazhuang?"

Biaotou Pang scratched his face: "Didn't it happen before? That's who, the King of Inspiration, didn't he come to your Chenjiazhuang to eat virgin boys and girls? It's not like you haven't seen it before, and it's all in the bloody big mouth of the King of Inspiration." If you survived, why would you be afraid of other monsters?”

(King of Inspiration: "...")

Hao Er: "...No, you are trying to make excuses. Besides, I have not always been from Chenjiazhuang. I remarried with my mother. I have been from Chenjiazhuang in the past few years. I didn't even know This one! Wait, you are all monsters? Does His Majesty know? Do the merchants escorted by you know?"

Escort Pang answered irrelevantly: "You're not afraid, are you? I don't think you even peed your pants."

Hao Er: "... Then I'm really sorry." He got up from the ground as he spoke, flapping his clothes while looking at the other bodyguards with piercing eyes.Seeing their fearless appearance, one knew that they were definitely not human beings, but Hao Er thought belatedly, is he surrounded now?

But the escort leader Pang coughed and said to the other escorts: "You have also seen that brother Hao didn't pee his pants in fear, nor was he frightened into a fool. Our wages will not be deducted!"

The bodyguards cheered one after another, and then they continued to eat and drink.

Hao Er: "..."

Biaotou Pang came forward to grab Hao Er's shoulders, but Hao Er didn't break free, staring at Biaotou Pang like a dead fish.

Brigade leader Pang thought for a while and said, "Actually, you are the only one in our group."

Hao Er: "!!!"

It took Hao Er a while to recover his voice: "Including the caravan?"

Biaotou Pang nodded, "They also realized that being a businessman makes a lot of money. No, it was hard to get a business qualification certificate, and the first business is not small. If it is done, it will definitely make a lot of money." Pen, we are really envious."

Hao Er: "...the business qualification certificate issued to them by His Majesty the King?"

Head Escort Pang nodded again: "I heard that His Majesty the King rewarded them with the principal, just like our Fuwei Escort Bureau, His Majesty the King is really a good person!"

Hao Er felt that the "good man" in his mouth did not have the same meaning as the "good man" he often said. The "good man" in his mouth was pronounced separately, but the "good man" in his own words was pronounced separately.Wait, what he should care about is not this, what he should care about is that His Majesty the king is so... powerful, able to drive monsters to work for her and make money for her.

And Hao Er felt relieved a lot after thinking about it. After all, they were all appraised by His Majesty the King, and Pang Biaotou didn't show his bloody mouth at him, but Hao Er still felt a little hairy.He thought he should go find the guards to change his room, but as soon as this idea came up, Hao Er suddenly felt blessed: "The guards in the station—"

The head of Escort Pang said loudly: "What's wrong with them? Oh, you want to ask if they are humans or demons? Let me think about it, all the people on duty today are—"

Hao Er said cautiously: "Human?"

Pang Biaotou didn't give him any hope and said: "Monster."

Hao Er: "..."

Pang Biaotou didn't think there was anything wrong: "Isn't this the Double Ninth Festival? You all have something to do, so there are more monsters on business, which is not the case in normal times."

Hao Er had nothing to say, he just felt that the guards at the post station were too unmotivated, isn't it the Double Ninth Festival?Why can't you stay on duty?It's not Chinese New Year!

At this moment, someone called Pang Biaotou to continue punching, Pang Biaotou patted Hao Er's shoulder: "Brother Hao, do you want to have another drink?"

Hao Er shook his head so that it was about to fall off, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times. He even called the monster brothers and sisters, which was never expected.

Hao Er looked at the ghosts and ghosts in this room, and wanted to faint, but after standing for a while, he became more sober, and finally he could only go to the yard to blow air without seeing or disturbing.But after blowing the wind, Hao Er couldn't stop thinking wildly, the color on his face changed unpredictably, and finally he stomped his feet, thinking that he couldn't go on like this, he had to find something for himself to do.

I just want to go to sleep, I'm sure I won't be able to sleep.

It is unrealistic to think about changing the yard.

Hao Er looked left and right, and saw that there was no hay in the troughs of the cattle they had brought over in the cowshed, the guards must have been negligent.After thinking for a while, Hao Er went out of the courtyard, searched around, found a lawn, picked up a large bundle of grass, carried it back and put it in the trough: "Good cows, are you hungry? Come and eat."

What surprised Hao Er was that those cattle didn't eat the grass he brought.

Hao Er scratched his cheek, he was not in charge of feeding these yellow cattle before, do they still recognize people?Said they have already eaten?That's not certain.Hao Er waited for a while, but he didn't see the cattle grazing. Instead, they stared at him with eyes as big as copper bells, which made Hao Er's scalp feel numb. I also heard a "moo" sound from a ox.

After hearing the sound of "moo", a bodyguard surnamed Niu yelled: "Look, they are used to them. They don't even want to eat grass. If you have the ability, you can transform into shape sooner!" It was very bad, but he still stood up, packed the leftovers on his table, picked up a basket of steamed buns, and a can of wine, and walked out.

Hao Er watched him walk to the cowshed: "??!"

Pang Biaotou nuzui: "These are the stupid sons of Lao Niu's family. It has been decades, and they have not been able to change their form, so they can only come out to use their feet. Isn't it just that the young and the young don't work hard, and the boss is just sad." After he finished speaking, he laughed unkindly, and the others also laughed, gloating.

Hao Er: "..." He has a fucking saying that he doesn't know if he should say it or not!

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Hao Er: I shouldn't have set a flag, I should have seen that Pang Biaotou is not a serious Biaotou, I'm so stupid, really.

Head Escort Pang: Meow meow?I rely on culture to be the bodyguard, okay?

Bull Demon King: I am not a Bull Dart Master ==
