Chapter 521 The image of civil unrest
When Guan Mu returned to the inner room, Han Mo was carefully observing the map of Shenshan City. When he saw Guan Mu coming in, Han Mo had already asked: "Great shopkeeper, will the person... be in the altar?"
Guan Mu came over and sat down and said, "Luo Rixu is the Neifengsi of the Holy Altar. There are only two places in the Shenshan City, one is the Feng Palace where the Chief of Feng Kingdom is located, and the other is the Holy Altar where the High Priest is located. The Chief has the Chief's servants, and the Neifengsi is only responsible for serving the High Priest in the Holy Altar. Since Luo Rixu dares to say that the person's food is his responsibility, it has proved that the person you are looking for must be in the Holy Altar."
Han Mo nodded and smiled, "I was worried about how to find his whereabouts, but I didn't expect that such a big problem would be solved by the big shopkeeper in an understatement!"
Guan Mu waved his hand and smiled, "It's too much. It's an understatement to get this news from him, but I also tried my best to serve this Lord Fengsi well. I thought it would be of great help in the future, but I didn't expect that today I would use your business first."
Han Mo put down the map and bowed: "Big shopkeeper. I...!"
Guan Mu had already waved his hand and said, "No need to say much. Since you know the general location of your friend, it means you have a goal and don't act without planning. But... the Holy Altar is one of the two major architectural complexes of Shenshan City. The place is not small. Although Shenshan City is not big, there are many houses in the Holy Altar. We don't know which house it is. And... it's not easy to ask Luo Rixu again at this time. After all, although this guy is greedy for money, he is not a little brainless. If he asks too much, he will be alert to him...!"
Han Mo pondered.
Guan Mu stared at Han Mo and continued, "I don't say anything about the Snake King's position in the hearts of Feng Guo people. You know that your subordinate is now in the Snake King, and I am afraid that the house where he lives will be surrounded and cannot be covered... Openly and secretly, Feng Guo masters will definitely regard it as a forbidden place for outsiders. If you want to rescue him, you must find a way to get close to... Do you have a countermeasure? You must understand that since Feng Guo people are strictly guarding such an important place, even if they are my Qing Guo Ziyi Guard or your Yan Guo Flower Hall, it is also inaccessible!"
Han Mo knew that Guan Mu said very well.
Although Zhu Xiaoyan has the Snake King in hand, it is impossible for the Snake King to threaten Feng Guo people to do anything. For some excessive conditions, Feng Guo people will definitely not agree.
Nowadays, housing is still available and food and drinks are available. This is the maximum tolerance for Feng Guo people. In this case, around Zhu Xiaoyan, as Guan Mu said, heavy troops and sanitation, irrelevant people, etc., it is impossible to have the opportunity to approach.
Han Mo's trip, but he brought Hongxiu alone to get close to Zhu Xiaoyan, but he was afraid that it would be difficult to get close to the house where Zhu Xiaoyan was imprisoned.
Although Hongxiu is a first-class dark master, she is still a human, not a ghost. No matter how capable she is, she cannot rescue Zhu Xiaoyan quietly without any gaps.
This is a difficult problem, a big problem!
...
"Tomorrow, take this opportunity to go in and take a look!" Guan Mu whispered: "The opportunity is rare. Take a look at the defense inside the Shenshan City with your own eyes, and then decide whether to continue to act!"
Although he had made a decision to help Han Mo, there was no doubt that deep down in Guan Mu still hoped that Han Mo would give up this piece.
If the action goes smoothly, a miracle really happens and Han Mo rescues people, it will be easy to say, but once the matter is exposed, the consequences will be extremely serious.
The first thing to bear is that the Guan family trade business must be affected. As Guan Mu, who has been in Fengguo for nearly ten years, of course, he is unwilling to destroy his efforts due to the failure of Han Mo's action.
Han Mo could naturally understand Guan Mu's intentions and nodded slightly, "Don't worry, big shopkeeper, if I'm not sure, I won't act rashly!"
"That's great!" Guan Mu nodded and said, "But... I have decided to help you, so if you have any difficulties, even if you tell me, it is not convenient to send people to participate in the action to avoid the trade bank's direct conflict with Fengguo, but... if there are other places where you can do your best, I will still do my best. You can rest assured!"
Han Mo smiled and nodded: "The shopkeeper has helped me a lot." After a pause, he remembered something and asked softly: "The shopkeeper, there is one thing I really want to ask you for advice!"
"Speaking!"
Han Mo smiled faintly and said, "As far as I know, a lot of things have happened in the past year in Feng Kingdom. I have heard some news that the three counties and eight villages in Feng Kingdom are fighting each other and civil strife frequently occur, but I don't know if this news is true or false?"
Guan Mu smiled, "Xiaoshui, besides saving people, I'm afraid that this trip will inquire about the cause of the domestic chaos, is it one of your goals, right?"
Han Mo smiled and said, "It's just by the way!"
Guan Mu stroked his beard, pondered for a while, and then said, "Actually, what's going on? Even me, there is no accurate news yet. This matter will start from a year ago!"
Han Mo stared at Guan Mu and took a look at him.
"A year ago, at Feng Guozhai Club, the eight major village masters gathered in the Shenshan City..." Guan Mufuxu said slowly: "But the eight major clubs discussed what they were talking about, and I still don't know the news until now. But I know that in that meeting, the eight major clubs were killed for some reason. Three of them were killed on the spot. The three of them were killed on the spot by the Heimu Village Master of Jiaozhou County, Feng Guoguo Village Master Luoluo Changheimu Hall, Langya Village Master Luoluo Changmin Qiutuyuan, and Yuling County Qingmu Village Master Luoluo Changqingmuqiu were killed on the spot, and even the guards they brought were killed cleanly...!"
When Han Mo heard this, he frowned.
The eight major village leaders had Luo Luochang killed three at once. Such an amazing thing would definitely cause a huge storm in the Feng Kingdom. At least the three villages under the three major villages under Luochang were bound to have big problems.
"Who killed them?"
"Of course, it is the chief of Feng Kingdom today." Guan Mu said: "It is Hu Feng, the leader of Yuquan Village!
Han Mo narrowed his eyes.
Although the chief is the supreme leader of the Feng Kingdom, under the special national conditions of the Feng Kingdom, if you want to kill the other big village leaders, you will definitely not be able to do what you want to do.
In the eyes of Feng Guoren, it is undoubtedly a sensational thing to kill three masters.
Guan Mu sighed lightly: "This matter is a huge matter in Feng Kingdom. It is said that after killing the three masters, Luoluocheng, Tuo Hufeng immediately blocked the news and forged the abdication letter of the three masters, which was to pass the position to other people. Tuo Hufeng sent his subordinates to the three villages and showed the abdication letter, saying that the three masters would stay in Shenshan City to serve the snake god and the high priest, and they would choose another person from the masters of the three villages to serve as Luoluocheng...!"
Han Mo sighed and said, "The candidate for the new leader Luo must have been bought by Tuo Hufeng before and secretly swore allegiance to Tuo Hufeng... I think although it is the master's family, there may be many factions within the village's family, right?"
Guan Mu showed admiration in his eyes and said, "Little Shui is indeed extremely intelligent. Yes, the master's family is also distinct factions. Every time a new Luochang rises, there will be a fire within the master's family, and the three Shijia and the Minjia, who belong to him, will be involved in the battle for Luochang... If we really want to talk about it, the position of chief of Feng Kingdom is easier than that of the village master's family. The rules passed down from generation to generation, the position of chief is replaced by the eight village master's family, and it is once every three years. Therefore, as long as you become Luochang, you can move into the Feng Palace in Shenshan City to become the new chief. Therefore, the dispute between the master's family is more cruel than the battle for chief. I have seen many things in the nine years of Feng Kingdom. Four years ago, the two factions
In the fight, the three families and dozens of civilian families were divided into two factions. The entire Chishui Village fought with swords and weapons all day long, and it lasted for more than two months. The other villages could not convince them. In the end, the high priest went to Chishui Village in person, and then stopped the swords and weapons. In the end, it was decided that five warriors from both sides would go to the battle. Two wins in three games, and who would win will be the Luochang. In the end, the warriors of Chishui defeated Chishui Qianfang, and Chishui became the new Luochang. The high priest personally presided over the throne ceremony of Chishui's first company. However, after the high priest returned to Shenshan City, Chishui, who became the high priest, found a reason and immediately killed Chishui Qianfang... Such things are not a minority in the battle between Fengguo Luochang. Not only did the master's family, but the three families, the people's first family, it was not easy to get it!"
Han Mo touched his chin and smiled faintly: "Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, there are benefits, and where there are interests... there are naturally conflicts!"
Guan Mu nodded and looked at Han Mo with admiration. There was no doubt that Han Mo's words revealed the essence of the deepest part of human nature!
Everyone is fighting for, but the interests that everyone is fighting for may be different!
"Tuo Hufeng may want to use the method of replacing Luochang to suppress the terrible consequences of the death of the three Luochangs. After all, he also knew that there is no airtight wall in this world. Even if the blockade is tight, the news that the three Luochangs were killed in Shenshan City will be leaked sooner or later!" Guan Mu looked calm: "It was just that when he was in Heimu Village, there was a problem. Because Luochang, who was killed in Heimu Village, was writing a letter, in addition to his special handwriting, there was also a special code that outsiders didn't know... Heimutang was cautious.
The man set up a set of secret codes to guard against someone pretending to be his handwriting. Several of his subordinates who hold real power know that secret code... Heimutang is very prestigious and popular in Kuromu Village. When Takuhufeng's envoy took out the forged letter, he was immediately seen through by the people of Kuromutang. Not only did he detain the messenger, but he also immediately detained Kuromuyi, the master of Kuromu Village promoted by Takuhufeng, and his accomplices, and found out from Kuromuyi that may have been buried in the Kamiyama Castle."
Han Mo smiled helplessly and said, "It is a great blessing for Heimutang to have such a group of loyal subordinates, but... for the entire Heimu Village, I don't know if it is a blessing or a misfortune?"
He had already vaguely guessed in his heart that it was because Kuromuzhai discovered the conspiracy that the Feng Civil War began.
Sure enough, Guan Mu said: "Heimu Village secretly sent people to investigate. They are also one of the eight major villages of Feng Kingdom. They also have a few pairs of eyes in Shenshan City. They soon knew that Heimu Hall was killed. At that time, headed by Heimu Hall's son, without saying a word, raised the battle flag. Then the other two villages also raised the battle flag because of the ventilation of Heimu Village. The warriors gathered and marched towards Shenshan City in three directions. The banner they used to avenge Luo Chang. At that time, it was said that Tuo Hu Feng was ambitious and wanted to dominate the position of chief, but because the three major villages did not agree, he killed him... At the beginning, the people of the three major villages were as powerful as they fought to the mainland of Nanjun... The people of these three villages were all wearing red scarves, so they were called the Red Headed Man...!"
Only then did Han Mo realize that the red-headed man he had heard had such an origin.
Guan Mu is worthy of being a businessman and has first-class eloquence. When talking about these things, his voice and emotion are full of emotions and yin and yang are shaking, which completely reveals the tense atmosphere at that time in his words.
"The situation was extremely critical at that time. The red-headed man's banner was loud and he won victory after victory. At that time, I was preparing to withdraw the trade deal from Fengguo temporarily, and the disaster of swords and weapons affected the fish!"
Han Mo stared at Guan Mu and said, "But... in the end, it seems that the Red-headed Man was defeated?"
Guan Mu nodded and said, "Just as the Red-headed people were getting angry and gradually approaching Shenshan City, the high priest who had not participated in the disputes between the villages suddenly came out and claimed that the Snake God was angry because of the Red-headed people's rebellion and did not eat for several days. If the Red-headed people continue to cause disaster, they will be punished by the Snake God. After death, they will enter the Great Hell of Avici and will never be reborn..."
"The theory of gods and ghosts must have played a big role at this time!" Han Mo sighed. In such a country with gods' beliefs, the high priest said this at this time, which would have been destined to be the tragic end of the Red-headed Man.
Guan Mu also sighed and said, "Yes. As soon as the high priest said this, the three Red Head Villages immediately experienced civil strife. Many people retreated because they were afraid of the punishment of the snake god and stopped following the master's family to enter the sacred mountain city. In the eyes of the warriors of the Minjiaya, the master's family is indeed extremely noble, but compared with the master's family, the snake god and the high priest made them even more awe. The red heads of the three major villages retreated more and more. At the beginning, there were still 40,000 to 50,000 people in the three major villages, and they waited until they were far away.
Less than a hundred miles away from the mountain city, there were only less than ten thousand people left... At this time, Tuo Hufeng had joined forces with several other villages to form a large encirclement and surrounded the Red-headed people in the Wucao Forest area of Chishui Village... In the battle of Wucao Forest, most of the Red-headed people were killed and injured, and only a small number of people escaped. Now they are scattered in various places in Feng Kingdom, and it is hard to find traces. Tuo Hufeng ordered his subordinates to search for the whereabouts of the Red-headed people, capture one person alive, and reward fifty taels of silver!"
"It seems that the matter of Feng Kingdom is very clear." Han Mo frowned and said, "It is obvious that Tuo Hu Feng wants to dominate the position of chief, so he held a meeting. At the meeting, the three major deceased chiefs opposed it. Tuo Hu Feng drew his sword to face each other. Then he used the power of the high priest to quell the rebellion of the Red-headed man... So clear, why did the shopkeeper just say that he still couldn't figure out the reason? Could there be another doubt?"
"What I just said is something that everyone knows." Guan Mu said slowly, "If someone asks me, I can only tell you this at most. But since it's Xiaoshui, you are here to ask about this, I have to express my doubts!"
"Please give me advice from the shopkeeper!" Han Mo said solemnly.
He knew that Guan Mu had always treated each other with sincerity today and helped a lot, so he looked quite respectful.
Guan Mu thought about it and said, "Xiaoshui, you may not know that the high priest of Feng Kingdom was strictly selected. He was selected from the Feng Kingdom Luo Ruluo. Luo Ruluo is the priest of Feng Kingdom. It is said that it was selected by the snake god as the spiritual man of the god for a long time ago. Only the high priest can hear the words of the snake god, and only the high priest can tell people the oracle of the snake god. Once every generation of high priest enters the altar to serve the snake god, he must designate a successor among the children under the age of two. The designated child will enter Luo Ruluo's priest from then on, and he will teach him the five elements and eight trigrams since he was young, and he must receive the strictest spiritual training... Generally speaking, the high priest is a person with extremely noble character and will not surrender to anyone, and the purpose of the high priest is to maintain the peace of the entire Feng Kingdom... Despite this, the high priest almost never participates in the villages.
The battle was very rare, four years ago when the high priest went to Chishui Village to preside over the dispute, but in the end, it was just to resolve the dispute...!" He looked tight and stared at Han Mo: "But the high priest came out to scold the Redhead, which was something that had never happened before. He used the snake god to attack the Redhead, which was obviously protecting Tuo Hu Feng... But as far as I know, Tuo Hu Feng took office for three years, at the beginning
Then he issued a government order to increase the payment of goods, and there were many government orders that were not conducive to the people. The high priest had advised Takuhu Feng not to do this... As far as I know, the relationship between the high priest and Takuhu Feng was not good, and the high priest was quite dissatisfied with Takuhu Feng's arrogance. If it weren't for the rules passed down from generation to generation, the high priest would not even want to live in the same city with Takuhu Feng, but this time the high priest came out to help Takuhu Feng talk, wouldn't it be strange to say this?"
Han Mo narrowed his eyes. At first, he just felt that Tuo Hufeng and the high priest colluded with each other and wore a pair of pants. In times of crisis, Tuo Hufeng won over the high priest and the high priest helped Tuo Hufeng. That was understandable.
However, after Guan Mu's explanation, Han Mo felt that if the high priest would have the idea of not wanting to live in the same city with Tuo Hufeng, then it was obvious that he was extremely disgusted with Tuo Hufeng, so it was naturally impossible to come out in a critical moment to help Tuo Hufeng by suppressing the red-headed man.
This is obviously unreasonable.
The high priest had a grudge against Taku Hu Feng because of the excessive government orders. From a certain perspective, the high priest was asking for the people and was a kind person. It was hard to imagine that he would help Taku Hu Feng by suppressing the red-headed man!
Guan Mu saw the confusion on Han Mo's face and even said softly: "And the position of chief is changed every three years. Tuo Hu Feng wants to dominate the family. Is there only three other villages with the chieftain? This is the chief rotation law passed down from generation to generation in Feng Kingdom. Tuo Hu Feng destroys the law. The other seven major leaders join forces. Tuo Hu Feng will not succeed. Moreover, even if the other few people were killed and did not dare to object in Shenshan City, but later, except for the three killed Luo Chang, the other four people left Shenshan.
When the city returned to the village, when the Red-headed people were in rebellion, why didn't they come out to oppose Tuo Hufeng? They were all chief rotation players and were qualified to become chiefs. Are they willing to let Tuo Hufeng's family monopolize?" Shaking their heads gently: "Xiaoshui, this matter is actually far from being as simple as it seems, and... I think there must be a major hidden secret in it, but... although I investigated it from multiple sources, I still haven't figured out the reason yet!"
