Chapter 719
Zheng Xiaoming nodded slightly, and finally understood: "So it is!"

It's because there are too many disciples who died in battle, so they always have to be resettled.

The number of places granted by the imperial court is limited... Even if you are the head teacher of Shushan, it is impossible to give hundreds or thousands of places to gods with one mouth, right?

This means that after some disciples are dismissed, they have no quota and can only hold the private edict of the head teacher.

Zheng Xiaoming laughed and said: "This time the god saved us, I think the imperial court will not begrudge the imperial edict!"

A smile appeared on the Taoist He's face: "Thank you so much, Lord Hou! Lord Hou's hit is extremely expensive..."

He still wanted to talk about this topic, but was interrupted by Zheng Xiaoming, asking: "I'm going to rush to Zhongjing. I don't know if the gods have a way?"

The Taoist He said with a smile: "Don't worry, Lord Hou, I have no choice but to send Lord Hou and others to Zhongjing directly. But it can at least save Lord Hou a day's trip!"

Zheng Xiaoming said: "Thank you very much!"

That night, everyone rested in the Huilong Temple. They did not rest peacefully that night, as if they were riding on clouds and fog. When they stayed early the next morning, when they opened their eyes, the scenery in front of them was unfamiliar. It was no longer in the mountains, but On the ground.

There are many fields here and there, densely populated, but it has already reached the prosperous area very close to Zhongjing.

Everyone got up from the wasteland in astonishment, but there was no sign of Huilongguan.

"Everyone, don't panic, this is the mountain god who sent me here. This place is only more than a hundred miles away from Zhongjing!"

Zheng Xiaoming stepped forward to calm people's hearts.

Immediately, everyone was surprised and delighted, and they were extremely grateful to Taoist He.

But at this time, the smoke and dust billowed, and a small group of cavalry quickly approached, standing in front of everyone, shouting and asking: "Who are you waiting for, why are you gathering here!"

But Zheng Xiaoming and his group were all covered in blood and weapons, and they didn't look like good people at first glance.

Especially now that the situation is tense and all places are under martial law, such a large group of people suddenly appeared.No wonder the local defenders are not nervous!
If it wasn't for Zheng Xiaoming's group of people, some of them officers and soldiers, I'm afraid they wouldn't be so polite now!

Before Zheng Xiaoming could speak, Xu Youguang had stepped forward and screamed, "Bold! Here the imperial court inspects the mountain tomb, envoy Xiayanghou, and worships Mr. Li, the doctor in the temple of the Ministry of Rites, and enshrines Mr. Li Zhi in front of the palace..."

Before the list of titles was finished, the officers and soldiers’ expressions changed drastically. They got off their horses and bowed to the ground on one knee: “I’ll pay my respects to the Marquis of Xiayang, Mr. Li, Eunuch Li... Please forgive the villain for his ignorance!”

Zheng Xiaoming said: "Those who don't know are not guilty, get up! Where are you from?"

The officer of this team of cavalry hurriedly said: "We are the supervising soldiers under the command of Governor Hedao, and the subordinate officer is Xiaoqi Ren Zhongwu!"

Zheng Xiaoming nodded when he heard the words, and said in his heart: "It turns out that they are the soldiers of the supervisor, no wonder they are actually a team of elite cavalry!"

You must know that cavalry is precious, and it is difficult to spell decent cavalry in ordinary places... It does not mean that cavalry can be called cavalry!
Zheng Xiaoming asked: "Since it is the superintendent, why did they appear here? What kind of place is this place!"

Ren Zhongwu looked at a group of people in a panic, and they appeared on the side of the mountain again, probably coming across the mountain.It's just strange Zheng Xiaoming's question: "Report to Lord Hou, we are the ones sent by the governor to meet Lord Hou and others.

Since the day before yesterday, Master Hou and his party have lost track of each other, after Yingjie county magistrate reported it.Master Yun, the governor of the river channel, immediately sent a few troops to search for Master Hou and his party!
But I didn't expect that Lord Hou and his party would travel through the Nanye Mountains for five hundred miles in just two days, which is amazing! "

When I said this, I was very puzzled in my heart.

You must know that marching on flat ground takes about ten days to cover five hundred miles.

How did people like Zheng Xiaoming travel such a long distance in just two days?
Although crossing mountains and ridges saves a lot of distance, it should not be so fast!
It's just that he has a humble official position, but he dare not ask.Zheng Xiaoming didn't intend to answer either, so he asked, "How is the situation in Zhongjing now?"

Ren Zhongwu replied: "Although there is nothing wrong with Zhongjing, traces of demonic disasters have appeared in many places. Especially in Yingjie and other counties last year, the drought has disrupted yin and yang, and a large number of monsters have appeared this year. Fanghe County, The county town has been breached by monsters, and no one, old or young, is spared..."

Has the situation become so dangerous?
Zheng Xiaoming didn't bother to ask any more questions, and said, "I'm going to Zhongjing immediately! You wait for my guards!"

Ren Zhongwu dared not refuse, so he escorted Zheng Xiaoming and his party to Zhongjing.

As far as I saw along the way, there was chaos everywhere.Although there has not been a large-scale evil disaster in this area, people are panicking, and many places have begun to gather people and enter the city fortress to escape.

The entire production and economic order has been greatly damaged. If there are detailed statistics, it must be an astronomical figure!
Zheng Xiaoming is the most sensitive to this due to the strength of his surroundings.

I vaguely knew in my heart that if this continues, the evil disaster will only get worse!

We must find a way to calm people's hearts and restore order.Only this kind of humanity can suppress the evil disaster.It will not let the evil disaster expand again!
It's just that no matter what he thinks, he has to rush to Zhongjing City.

In this classical era, traffic information is not smooth.It is necessary to enter the information node of the center in order to effectively integrate strength and suppress evil disasters.

Fortunately, there were no moths in the last hundred miles, and they rushed to Zhongjing City very smoothly.

The city had already received the news in advance that the guarding eunuch of Zhongjing, the governor of the river, and the local dignitaries came out of the city to welcome them.

The bureaucratic system is like this, and it is inevitable to go to the wrong situation at any time.It's the same even if it's still a time of evil disaster... unless there are enemies who directly kill the city of Zhongjing.Otherwise, this kind of thing cannot be avoided!

Zheng Xiaoming didn't bother to be polite with these people. He was not a person who was good at these things. He just exchanged a few polite words and asked, "How is the situation now? What is the court's intention?"

Originally, the imperial court had ordered Zheng Xiaoming to sit in Zhongjing, the governor of all walks of life, to be the governor of this disaster.

But this governor is false, it is just the tradition of the Great Chu, all the commander-in-chief and governor-general need honorable princes to sit in command.

Zheng Xiaoming just came to Zhongjing for business just at the right time, so he took this position. The specific other things are beyond Zheng Xiaoming's ability!

"The imperial court sent Master Lan, the minister of the Ministry of War, to Zhongjing to deal with this evil disaster as Lord Hou's deputy!

In addition, the officers and soldiers from all over the capital, as well as the river soldiers and horses, have gathered, a total of [-], and now they are all in the city! "
