Cultivation: Start with Inviting Gods

The weather was very bad, but the weather was very bad.

Jiang Nanhe, who was on his way, didn't know that the atmosphere in a county not far from Qinshan had become particularly strange.

The whole county had become particularly quiet, and even the bustling commercial street in the past was now empty.

The doors of every household were closed, and a gust of wind blew through the street, raising a cloud of dust. The bustling county seemed to have pressed a pause button, and every household locked their doors and windows.

The reason why the county had this atmosphere was because a group of troops suddenly came from outside the county. Each soldier was wearing armor and had very sophisticated weapons.

The most outrageous thing is that each of them has a mount, and the war horses they sit on are also covered with armor. At first glance, they are a team of cavalrymen who have experienced thousands of battles.

In ancient times, cavalrymen were difficult to defeat, and they often meant the symbol of power and combat effectiveness.

The only people in their entire country who could form this cavalry were the royal family.

Now that this cavalry has come to their county, how can it not make people surprised and frightened?

So every household in the county locked the doors and windows tightly, just to worry that the city gate would catch fire and affect the innocent.

At this time, in the government office in the county, the county lord in official uniform was sweating and talking to the tall soldiers in armor sitting in the main seat. What?

The official lord was wearing an official uniform, which was wide, making him look as thin as a stick. His face was thin, and his hair and beard were messy. Just looking at his appearance, you would think he was a good official who was dedicated to serving the people, but in fact he was not at all.

They are too far from the imperial city, no one cares, no one asks, it is a no man's land.

So the county magistrate here asks each town to pay more taxes every year. If they pay more in a year, the villagers will have less food left, and there will not be much surplus food left.

Many villages have left this area in recent years. They would rather become refugees than stay here.

The county magistrate wiped the sweat from his head, and his skinny hands looked particularly strange.

"General, I wonder what instructions you have for visiting our poor and remote place?"

The tall young man in armor sitting in the first seat glanced at the county magistrate in front of him and did not speak.

Seeing this, the county magistrate's eyes rolled around, and then he raised his hand and gestured behind him.

The few people outside the room left, and when they came back, they walked in carrying a few boxes.

The county magistrate saw the boxes fall to the ground, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He made a sincere gesture to the people in armor.

"Look, sir, these are some of my gifts. I know you've been through a lot of hardship, so I hope you'll accept them. Now that you're well, I'll help the people."

The man in armor listened to the county magistrate's words, looked up at him indifferently, and then stood up to open the box. When the box was opened, the sunlight shone into it, and it actually reflected a little light. The box was actually full of gold.

This gold was real gold, and it was smelted. The general in armor raised his hand and knocked on the gold a few times. The sound was crisp. Obviously, this gold was good, and there were six boxes like this on the ground.

After closing the box, the young man in armor spoke about the purpose of this trip.

"You are so polite, County Magistrate Li. I am here to investigate some things in accordance with the Emperor's order, and to destroy the temples within a hundred miles of this place. This trip requires our government to help. Please quickly submit the county annals that record the location of the temples in your county government."

Listening to what the young man in armor said, County Magistrate Li shuddered all over and knelt on the ground. He had a lot of cold sweat on his forehead in a short time.

"This, this, this, this is not allowed! Sir! The surrounding temples are the ancestors of each household, how can they be destroyed at will?"

Listening to what County Magistrate Li said, the young man in armor snorted coldly, and then threw out an imperial edict.

County Magistrate Li opened it tremblingly, and what came into his eyes were the four big characters "By the Will of Heaven and the Emperor's Edict".

He saw it, and his body collapsed directly on the ground, and his hands were trembling.

"How can you instigate the emperor's order? Bring me the county annals, add some people, and go destroy the temple with me. That's all you need to do. Don't worry about anything else, and don't ask questions. Hurry up and obey the order!"

After the young man in armor finished speaking, he waved his hand, and several armored soldiers came over from outside. They stepped forward and took the

The box was taken away, and two more were left in the county town to wait for Magistrate Li, and the county annals that recorded the location of the temples within a hundred miles around the county town were taken out.

Magistrate Li collapsed to the ground, and the sweat on his forehead never stopped. He cried out in his heart that he was sorry for his ancestors.

Although this guy exploited the people and did not make any achievements during his tenure, the ancient people's idea of ​​respecting their ancestors was engraved in their bones, so it was torture for him to do such a thing?

After all, some temples in the county town enshrined his ancestors, but Magistrate Li did not move for a long time, and the waiting soldiers were already impatient.

They stepped forward to drag Magistrate Li from the ground, one person held Magistrate Li's collar, and the other grabbed other people in the county town and asked them to lead the way to the warehouse in the county government.

Magistrate Li was dragged all the way and then thrown into the warehouse. Obviously, the patience of these two soldiers was limited.

County Magistrate Li did not dare to feel resentful. The two men had higher official titles than him. He did not dare to resist, nor could he resist. After all, the weapons on their bodies were not vegetarian.

County Magistrate Li, who was thrown on the ground, climbed up tremblingly, and then took out a book from the warehouse. As soon as he picked up the book, it was snatched away by someone. The two soldiers looked at each other and walked towards County Magistrate Li again. Seeing them coming, County Magistrate Li's heart sank.

He hurriedly greeted the few people who came together and asked them to pack some things in the county government's treasure house and send them to the two people. The two soldiers nodded with satisfaction and left.

Looking at their backs, County Magistrate Li sat on the ground again, clapped his hands on the ground, and shouted sorry for his ancestors.

Other people in the surrounding county government looked at County Magistrate Li sitting on the ground, and there was no expression on their faces. County Magistrate Li's mother loved to watch plays, and he followed his mother, but he didn't like watching plays, he loved acting.

With his cold-hearted and careless nature, how can he respect his deceased ancestors? Isn't it just a show for others to see?

After all, the county is not big or small. If he doesn't pretend, the younger or elders of the family can poke him in the back.

Seeing the acting-addicted Li Zhixian, everyone present was very disdainful in their hearts, but there was nothing they could do about it. He was an official and they were his soldiers.

Li Zhixian had a great time acting, and his eyes went black and he passed out. The people present hurried forward to care about his health. Some went to see a doctor, some went to see a doctor, and some fanned him. This is a true portrayal. If you dare to express your thoughts, the consequences will be irreparable.

It's the same for everyone.
