Looking north is a big city. It used to be as bustling and crowded as Linhai City, but now the streets are quiet, and all the people coming and going are soldiers in armor.
There is not much else in Tianbao Prefecture, except for the abundance of minerals, especially iron. Therefore, equipping each soldier with an iron armor, which is impossible in Middle-earth, is very easy here.
Like Linhai City, Beiwang City is divided into an inner city and an outer city. The inner city has eight gates. The one in the northeast is called Tianyang Gate. Outside Tianyang Gate is the Duwei Yamen. There is a long table at the door of the Yamen. There was a high chair, and a fat officer in heavy armor was sitting on the high chair. Next to the table was a wooden sign with the three characters "Login Office" written on it.
The uncle knew that this was where the register was registered, so he walked straight over, holding a stack of documents in his hand.
The fat officer was originally lazy and looked like he had not woken up. He took the document and threw it aside, letting the master next to him deal with it.
But when he raised his head and glanced at his uncle, his laziness immediately disappeared.
He casually opened a document and glanced at it. The fat officer slammed the table, waved behind him, pointed at the uncle and Xie Xiaoyu behind him, and shouted loudly: "Give me all these people." Take it."
There was a row of soldiers standing outside the Duwei Yamen, about twenty people, all wearing heavy armor and holding repeating crossbows in their hands. After hearing the command from the commander, they immediately raised the front ends of the repeating crossbows. Rows of cold soldiers The arrow points to the uncle
This thing was made to deal with monks. As soon as the machine is pressed, thousands of arrows will be fired, leaving the monks with no time to cast spells.
Although the uncle is no longer what he used to be, with so many arrows pointing at him, he still feels a chill in his vest.
"What reason do you have to take me?" he said angrily, glaring at the fat officer.
"It's clearly written on it. You should have arrived seven days ago. Military law is ruthless, and those who are late will be killed -" the fat officer said majestically, raising his chin slightly and looking at the uncle sideways.
The uncle turned back to look at Xie Xiaoyu. Now Xie Xiaoyu could only make the decision.
Xie Xiaoyu looked at this pig-like officer with interest for a long time, then turned around and shook his head at everyone and sighed: "I made a mistake. Not only did I underestimate the strength of Tuman, but I also overestimated this side." With such an idiot, even if the two sides are equally powerful, they will definitely lose."
"Youwhat did you say? Now you have not only missed the deadline, but you are also deceiving the public with your lies. Guys, let me go" The fat officer moved his finger towards Xie Xiaoyu.
Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, a man suddenly appeared behind him, grabbed his neck and lifted him up.
The one who caught the person was Fa Qing. His escape method was so fast and weird that it would be easy to catch a mortal.
Those soldiers were throwing rat weapons, but they didn¡¯t know whether to shoot arrows or not?
"I'm right. If Beiwang City is full of pigs like you, how can it be defended?" Xie Xiaoyu walked over step by step, with a creepy smile on her face, and walked up to the fat officer. , he asked unhurriedly: "What benefits have you received that you would risk your life or death to do things for others?"
"How dare you, I am an official of the imperial court, do you want to rebel?" The fat officer was trembling with fear, but he still held on.
"We are monks and have nothing to do with your court. Even if monks are recruited, they are still guests. Which military order can restrain us? As for arriving early and arriving late, it is even more of a joke. Beiwang City has been completely sealed off. None of the reinforcements from outside can come in. It's definitely exciting news that we can come here. You actually ignored the war situation for your own gain, and you really deserve to be killed." Xie Xiaoyu said darkly.
Everyone thought he was just talking.
No one expected that he grabbed the officer's neck and pulled hard.
Blood splattered, and the head was torn off by him.
Everyone was stunned, including the row of soldiers beside him.
Xie Xiaoyu spat out his palm force.
The row of soldiers all flew out, and the repeating crossbows in their hands flew far away.
"You are too courageous." There was an angry shout inside the yamen, and a group of people ran out from inside. Most of these people were wearing armor, and they were obviously military generals, but they were not ordinary people, but monks.
"Why don't you say that he is brave? An ant-like figure actually doesn't take the monk seriously." Xie Xiaoyu asked tit for tat.
"He is relying on the power of the army and the power of the court. What do you think? Is this an acceptable answer?" The person who just shouted angrily was a general. This man wore a golden helmet on his head, wearing golden armor, and a scarlet cloak on his back.He was about forty years old, with a three-foot-long beard below his mouth, and a square face that looked quite formidable.
"According to your wishes, as long as there is the support of the imperial court, a mortal can wrongly accuse monks and sentence monks to death at will. As long as it is the imperial court's will, no one can violate it. Even if someone pretends to be the imperial court's will, it doesn't matter. Anyway, there is the imperial court's cover. "Hey, who are the monks? Who are the elders of the various sects?" Xie Xiaoyu's words just now were actually a trap for these heart-breaking words.
No one would say that the various sects were above the imperial court, and no one would dare to say that the imperial court was above the various sects.
The former is "yes" and the latter is "dare", because the answer is obvious.
Just like people go through the cycle of life and death, the imperial court also has its ups and downs.
A short-lived court only lasts a few decades of luck, a long-lived court only lasts a few hundred years, and none lasts more than a thousand years.
"Some of the dynasties that perished were because the kings were fatuous and the officials were corrupt, so that the people were in dire straits, and eventually the officials forced the people to rebel. However, some were secretly killed because they angered a certain sect.
Four thousand years ago, there was a pretty good king. When he was talking about a famous female fairy, his words contained a hint of obscenity. This matter was spread by someone who was interested. As a result, the king suffered a tragedy. The country was ruined and the family was destroyed, and he himself was burned alive.
Since then, the kings have been extremely cautious in dealing with the sects, walking on thin ice.
The general was immediately asked.
"The army has its own military laws." An officer next to him said quickly.
"If someone is convicted of a crime under military law, should he rebel against it once it is found to be untrue?" Xie Xiaoyu had studied military law before coming here, so since the other party wanted to talk to him about this, he would not refuse anyone who came.
The officer was mute. This is indeed what is written in the military law, and the principle of sitting down is to increase the crime by one degree. The fat man committed a capital crime, and the penalty is to be cut in half.
"Then he should be interrogated by the Military Justice Department to prove his guilt and then punished. How can lynching be abused?" the officer immediately replied.
"After talking for a long time, it's still the same issue. If someone in the court offends a monk, it still has to be dealt with by the court. The monk has no power to deal with it." Xie Xiaoyu said with a smile, and he came back again.
The officer stuttered twice and did not dare to answer.
This was originally a deadlock between the court and the sect. Normally no one would touch this taboo, and ordinary people would not dare to offend the monks. If someone insists on doing this, he deserves to be killed.
"How do you prove that he is framing you?" The officer could only find another way to break through.
"He didn't frame us falsely. We were reinforcements coming from Linhai City. The flying ship was ambushed halfway. We discussed it at the time and there were two ways to go. One was to lurk on the spot and wait until the war started in Beiwang City. All of our attention is focused here. Let¡¯s take the opportunity to leave and go to any safe city. Unfortunately, we didn¡¯t do that. We took huge risks and killed many barbarians along the way.¡± He took off the leather bag on his waist and shook it violently, and more than thirty heads rolled down, the worst of which were those of Feitian Yaksha.
Others also took off their skin bags one after another, and the heads were poured out one by one. In the blink of an eye, a small mountain was piled up.
"When we got to the back, we couldn't hold any more, so we had to throw away the inferior ones." Xie Xiaoyu poked at the heads with her feet. Although there were one or two ordinary ones inside, the number was really small, and it was obvious that they were picking and choosing. Passed.
Xie Xiaoyu glanced around.
Many of the people watching the excitement were conscripted monks. Some of them lived in this city, and some lived in two nearby cities. These people also had no good impressions of the government.
This is the strength he needs to strive for.
"I didn't expect to rush in after a narrow escape, but this pig said that we should all be killed for delaying the deadline." Xie Xiaoyu's expression turned cold.
"It can only be said that he is stubborn and stubborn. It cannot be said that he is deliberately framed." The officer did not want to weaken his own momentum, so he could only continue to hold on.
"You mean I was wrong. It is up to you to judge whether he has framed me for death, or in other words, it is up to the court to judge." Xie Xiaoyu asked sharply.
The officer was sweating profusely, and the words came back to him, and they started to target him.
Of course he dare not admit it, this is fatal.
"II didn't mean that, it's justit's just"
"Okay." The general shouted. This matter is getting darker and darker. It can only be said that the dead guy has a pig brain.
