Missy, she always does not seek to make progress 2

More than half of February has passed, and it is already close to March. The further we go to Baiyue, the ancestral grave of the Xie family, the more we see on Qin Liuxi's route, the more we can see, because the impact of the snowstorm has not passed at all. The rivers they saw had not yet completely thawed, and spring plowing could not be carried out. They also encountered several small waves of civil unrest.

The sequelae of the disaster have gradually become apparent.

Mrs. Xie and others were in a heavy mood. They all came from Shengjing, the most prosperous city. Even though there were many people in Shengjing who were affected by the disaster, they were not like those who see frozen bones from time to time, and the powerful people They were holding a fox fur hand stove, eating hot pots, and skating. If it hadn't been for the period of national mourning after the death of the Queen Mother, the brothel and boat house would have been bustling with activity.

This is really not a joke.

And Qin Liuxi was even busier, busy collecting the corpses and saving the souls. It was easy for her to collect the frozen bones. She could just blow up the pit with one magic spell, then bury them on the spot, and erect a piece of wood or stone as a monument. It was rough. Rough, but better than the Dead Wilds.

Mrs. Xie and the others were all confused. They heard that it was some kind of thunder technique that could destroy ghosts, but they didn't expect it could be used in this way. It was much simpler and faster than digging with a shovel. They were also filled with emotion. The master was really kind. I wonder if other Taoist priests will be like this.

Other Taoist priests?

Haha, let's not compare with perverts. Who would use a big move like Five Thunder Techniques to blow up pits and bury corpses? It would be a waste of natural resources.

Qin Liuxi himself felt numb, because it would slow down his journey, but when he saw the resentful ghost crying and wandering around the ghost gate, if he let it go, he would either lose his wits and lose his soul and be eaten by the ghost, or he would absorb the Yin energy and kill people and become a ghost. , which makes the world more chaotic, and we can only save it while walking.

Although it is troublesome, it is not without its benefits. The merits are gradually added, and the power of faith also nourishes the soul. This comes from the respect and admiration of the Xie family and the rest.

He who ferries people and ghosts also ferries himself, there is no loss in this journey.

However, after stargazing at night, she would frown deeply. Then Mrs. Xie found that she would often disappear at night. Although she was curious, she did not dare to ask.

Only Qin Liuxi knew that Yinghuo Shouxin was not targeting the monarch, but was probably related to hunger and disease caused by natural disasters or war and chaos.

Sure enough, when they entered the territory of Baiyue, in early March, news came that King Xinyang had rebelled in the fiefdom. In addition, it was also reported that the prince had caused trouble in the harem during the national mourning period. The prince was deposed and demoted to a commoner, and the virtuous prince was demoted to a commoner. The imperial concubine was demoted to a virtuous concubine.

The queen mother died, the prince was deposed, and the imperial concubine was demoted. The Zhou family suffered an unprecedented blow. Before they could take a breath, they were impeached. The prince of Zhou used power for personal gain and secretly deployed troops to besiege a Taoist temple just to seek elixirs and offer them to the queen mother, which aroused public outrage. , which made the saint furious, demoted Duke Zhongguo to Shen Changbo, beheaded two generals, and dismissed several Ningzhou Prefecture officials.

"The Zhou family is really confused. Military power is a big taboo of the Heavenly Family. They don't say where the troops are coming. They use their power to mobilize troops without a warrant. This is because they think they died not fast enough." Old Taijun Xie sighed after hearing this and said : "The ancestors of the Zhou family followed the late emperor and conquered the world on horseback. They were also unparalleled in their loyalty and bravery. Unfortunately, their descendants are not as good as each generation and their minds are not clear-headed."

Military power is a sharp blade in the hands of every emperor, a knife used to protect the country and himself. Now this knife was wielded by someone taking advantage of his identity without any instructions. If he surrounded the Taoist temple today, wouldn't he be able to surround the palace tomorrow?
The Zhou family stepped on a huge thunder.

Shunfang said: "This year has been a troubled year. I didn't expect that a person like King Xinyang, who looks so cowardly, would rebel, and the people would suffer."

Qin Liuxi sneered: "He will go to the eighteenth level of hell."

Everyone looked at her with some curiosity. Her disgusted expression seemed like she knew something.

Qin Liuxi looked at their faces full of curiosity and said, "He used to have a worshiper who was a heretic. In order to perform evil spells, he killed many children."

When several people heard that it was magic again, their expressions changed. "What's going on in this world? Why do so many evil people suddenly appear?" Zhou frowned and said, "My sister's incident is already bad enough, and it's hard to say whether there is something wrong with our ancestral graves. Now, Then King Xinyang actually relies on those evil deeds to cause trouble, this..."

I never thought there were so many bad things in the past. Even if I met people from both Buddhist and Taoist schools, they were at most a place of worship, praying for peace, or inviting people to give lectures or something like that.

But now, there is an evil monk and an evil way. How can ordinary people survive against such a person?
Shunfang blurted out: "Isn't there going to be troubled times?"

This is both a natural disaster and a man-made disaster caused by war. In addition, the imperial court has become corrupt in the past few years. Officials are full of food and do nothing, but they still plunder the people's fat and anointed people. It is like a troubled time.

Mrs. Xie's heart skipped a beat and she said, "Shunfang, be careful what you say!"

The saint is now dedicated to seeking immortality, but he doesn't want to hear that trouble will happen when he is in power. Doesn't this mean that he is a foolish king?

But in troubled times, a faint king will remain infamy for thousands of years!

Although Mrs. Xie ordered to be careful, she still felt a little uneasy. If it was really a chaotic situation and the people were in dire straits, more people would die.

Qin Liuxi thought to herself that they were quite perceptive and were really a sign of troubled times, but she didn't say anything.

Before the sun set, the group entered the village of the Xie family.

The village is built against the mountain, and water flows down from the valley to form a river, which passes around the village. But I don't know if it was because it was too cold last year. Although it is already March in spring, the river has not completely thawed, and there is only a little water.

There are many mountains and forests in Baiyue, and most of them are lush and beautiful, but the mountains and forests in Xiejia Village are full of dead trees and decayed trees, and lack vitality.

"Although our Xie family has been guarding southern Xinjiang for generations and is said to be a family with hairpins, it is just a mud-legged family. Our great ancestor Xie Gong was originally a hunter. He first followed the rebel army to fight against the enemy. Later, he gained military merit and fell into the eyes of the great ancestor. He followed Qi The great ancestor of the family conquered the country and became a hero of the founding of the country." Mrs. Xie and Yourong Yan said: "This village is my Xie family village, but we are the only direct lineage left. We have only one seedling, and the rest are already. After leaving the branch of the fifth server, the blood relationship has become much farther, and more of the remnant veterans of the Xie Family Army have settled here. "

When she said this, she felt a little lonely.

The Xie clan was once a prosperous clan, but over the past hundred years, they have fought too many wars, and many people have died, especially the direct descendants, who have died one after another in the past ten years.

Because of this, it can be said that the Xie family is now in decline, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the family is in decline.

This can also be seen from this village. In such a large village, there are few young and middle-aged people walking around, and there are many old and frail people.

The sun is setting in the west.

Qin Liuxi suddenly thought of a question and asked: "Did all the direct descendants of the Xie family die in battle?" (End of Chapter)
