when the wind and cloud cry

Chapter 13 Surabaya Mutiny ([-])

Ever since the night when the Ice Demon Pearl awakened, Yuan Feilu behaved as usual on the surface, but those who were careful could detect that there was a coldness about this young man who was regarded as a waste by them.

This kind of coldness is not only the high coldness of temperament, but also a kind of inner coldness.

Even those eyes seem to have a magical power that can freeze people's hearts.

At this time, there is still a year before the internal test of the three channels, and the new disciples of Songzi Valley are all practicing hard at the early stage of Shaoyin, and the worst ones have also advanced to the rank of sixth-rank imperial warrior, and began to teach swords to practice swordsmanship.

The shocking evil sword sect is a major sect of sword sect, so the weapons are naturally worth mentioning.

From high-quality products, treasures, unique products to magical weapons, there are four grades.

Not to mention the magic weapon, but the shocking evil sword sect is so precious that ordinary people can't even take a look at it.

Weapons of other ranks are relatively easy, and they are all obtained by corresponding to the prestige of the division.

The prestige of the division mainly comes from two aspects of trial tasks and achievements. The higher the prestige, the more powerful the weapons obtained.

Among them, the trial tasks are not limited to the tasks assigned by the masters such as assassinating rebels, killing powerful officials, protecting the royal family, etc., but also include the promotion examination of the imperial guards.

Merit refers to the meritorious deeds made by the disciples for the master, not limited to the military exploits in the wartime, the five factions meeting martial arts to win glory for the master, etc.

Yuan Feili's rank is still at the seventh-rank imperial warrior. Although he cultivates peerless skills internally, he still needs a good weapon to practice sword art.

But if you want to get a high-quality sword, you must complete the master's promotion exam.

Lin Chu was very surprised when Yuan Feili told Lin Chu that he had opened up the second line of Ren and Du.

You must know that other Songzi Valley disciples practice hard day and night, and Ren Du's second channel has not been fully opened. How can a person with alchemy stone enter the realm like this?
Yuan Feili lied that he had an impatient temper and had a wrong understanding of the movement of meridians, which was why his Qi was not condensing smoothly, and it was not an alchemy stone.

After some rhetoric, it was seamless.

Although Lin Chu was skeptical, he still gave him a qualification for the promotion exam.

The difficulty of each stage's promotion test is different, and the seventh and sixth are relatively easy. As long as you can use your true energy instead of brute force to cut off the pine tree, you will be considered as a pass.

Just like that, under the watchful eyes of everyone in Lin Chu, Yuan Feili picked up his ax and chopped at the tree trunk as thick as a thigh.

But because he was not proficient in grasping the true energy of ice, he was afraid that people would see the clues, so this ax only showed a layer of skill.

Although it penetrated three points into the wood, it did not cut down the pine tree.

"Haha, that's it?"

"Brother Li probably didn't eat, right?"

"I just said, he is lazy and sleeps all day long. If he really enters the country like that, wouldn't it be a waste of my hard work day and night?"

"The so-called heaven rewards hard work, this can be regarded as a negative example for us, I will learn from it in the future, don't wait for the boy's head to be white, and be sad!"

Everyone booed and sarcastically.

Lin Chu comforted: "Junior Brother Li, you have done a good job, but this journey of cultivation is not as good as it is without [-] points of hard work. You still need to continue to practice!"

Yuan Fei smiled coldly, condensed the true energy of ice in the palm of his hand, and broke the pine tree with one palm, without even needing an axe.

Everyone was stunned, but no one noticed that his palm hidden in his sleeve was still covered with frost.

"Since the destiny is determined by birth, it can be seen that a true genius does not need to work hard!"

Yuan Feili said so lightly, with a trace of contradictory disdain in his eyes.

When a person cannot win dignity through hard work, hard work is really just to set off the talents of others.

Therefore, you can only delude yourself and indulge in abstract dreams, comforting yourself that the world is fair.

At this moment, Yuan Feili has a deep understanding of human emotions.

Anyway, he got a high-quality sword, named "Zangfeng", which means forbearance and dormancy.

He knew that his cultivation came from the evil way after all, which was not tolerated by the master.

In order to hide this talent, Yuan Feili started to practice the four-element zhenqi at the same time, even if he had to bear the great pain of alchemy.

As Yuan Feili gradually grasped the power of the ice magic bead, and was able to stimulate the three layers of true energy contained in the ice magic bead, he couldn't wait to start practicing the magic art and the supreme sword art of the shocking evil sword school.

The wind is howling, and the shadow is like frost!
The lonely wind in the late night blew his clothes, and the young man in white clothes danced his sword in the desolate and beautiful moonlight.

There was only the rustling of the wind on the cliff, and a figure like a dragon leaped up, with a long sword flying up and down, with the momentum of thousands of horses and horses as if it was going to shock the sky.

"Rainbow Sword Zhu Xian Jue!"

With this violent shout, the ice energy in Yuan Feilu's body was stimulated by the sword edge.

At the point of the sword's edge, the stone wall burst.

The so-called sword energy is the gathering of true energy, and countless fine stone chips roll down at Yuan Feili's feet.

He stood with his sword behind his back and sighed secretly.

This ice magic bead is worthy of being a rare treasure. Its [-]% true energy has surpassed that of ordinary disciples who have been cultivating hard for more than ten years. However, although the power of this sword has just shown its momentum, it is still far behind Jing Shisan's sword. It's the weapons that have fallen behind.

It seems that if you want to defeat Jing Shisan, you must get a top-notch weapon!
Another half a year passed by in a hurry.

The "Three Meridians Internal Test" of the Shocking Evil Sword School is approaching.

For newcomers, if they can show their talents in the internal test of the three veins, they will be vigorously cultivated by the master, and various panacea for strengthening the foundation and cultivating the vitality, the supremely powerful swordsmanship, peerless weapons, etc. Needless to say, the advancement of cultivation base is bound to progress rapidly, and there is still a chance to show one's own strength to the world at the martial arts conference.

To sum it up simply, just like winning an essay solicitation at the starting point, it is the shortest way for countless people to prove their masters in the street.

Therefore, those new disciples who wanted to be famous all over the world put all their energy into practicing hard, almost to the point of forgetting to eat and sleep.

All in all, it seems that apart from cultivation, Yu Jianfeng is preparing for the internal test of the three channels.

But just a few days ago, a major event that shocked the government and the public occurred in the capital of Sishui Prefecture.

The cause was the two-year flood in Wuyin Lake, which caused a lot of fields to be flooded, and the local states, counties, counties, and townships were severely affected. Not only the slaves starved to death, but even the common people at the bottom could not eat enough.

At this time, the court naturally cannot remain indifferent.

In order to relieve the disaster and appease the people, the imperial court reduced the tax by [-]% to show its favor.

But it’s not really a big deal, it’s nothing more than tens of thousands of people starved to death, it doesn’t matter, anyway, the hardworking and simple people can only sell their sons and daughters, and when they have nothing to sell, they find a crooked neck tree and commit suicide , Is it possible that you still dare to rebel?

You must know that there are troops stationed in the local states and counties, and it is impossible to rebel.

Absolutely impossible to rebel!
but……

But this time it's the opposite!
Of course it wasn't the slaves who rebelled,
Of course not the people,
It was the officers and soldiers of the city defense.

Taking the lead are the two brothers and sisters, Lie Zhanying and Lie Zhanyang, who are the principal and deputy of the navy camp in Wuyin City.

The two brothers and sisters didn't appreciate the favor of the imperial court, and were dissatisfied with the imperial court's tax cuts and no disaster relief, so they committed crimes against their superiors, killed the king of the state city, robbed the wealthy Jia gentry of the state city, opened the official granary to relieve the victims, and armed the people of the city According to the city, the soldiers rebelled.

The heart of a thief is clearly visible!

The Great Retrograde is outrageous!
Since the founding of the Xuan Dynasty, it has never happened in 200 years. What kind of event is this?
At this time, the imperial court naturally thought of the powerful weapon of the Jingxie Sword Sect to protect the country, and entrusted the Jingxie Sword Sect to cooperate with the Imperial Envoy and Supervision Department to handle the matter.

But this kind of errand can only be accepted by a royal officer of the fourth rank or above. A seventh rank like Yuan Feili has no chance at all, let alone thinking about it, he has to look aside.

Early in the morning, Yuan Feili had just returned to her room to lie down when she heard Lin Chu and Si Shengxuan walking towards here while talking.

"Junior Brother Si's speed of entry is astonishing. The internal test of the three veins is coming soon. Junior Brother is not practicing in Fenghui Ridge. Why do you have time to come here today?"

"Senior Brother, I've received the award. I'm ashamed to say it. Although I have been taught by Uncle Yun Jing, my qualifications are limited and I can only master it so far. The internal examination of the Three Meridians is just a show of shame for me. Here I call Junior Brother Ru and I went down the mountain together!"

"Going down the mountain? Could it be because of the Mutiny in Sishui Prefecture?"

"It's precisely this matter. Uncle Master deliberately asked me to go through the motions to earn some prestige in the school, which made the senior brother laugh. This kind of good job, I naturally thought of Junior Brother Li!"

The two people's voices were getting closer and closer, Yuan Feili suppressed her excitement and opened the door: "Senior Brother Si, where did you say there was a mutiny?"

"What? Don't you know about such a big matter, Junior Brother Li?"

Si Shengxuan looked surprised, and looked at Lin Chu strangely.

According to common sense, Lin Chu is the deacon of the Department of Foreign Affairs, and he can receive news immediately of the errands assigned by the court, and Yuan Feili, as the first adopted son of the Department of Foreign Affairs, will naturally get a good job if he is close to the water.

But Yuan Feili didn't know about it. It can be seen that Songzigu's lineage didn't give due attention and training to this first adopted son at all.

Lin Chu pretended to be stunned and said: "Oh, Junior Brother Li concentrates on practicing every day, and I was afraid that he would be distracted, so I didn't mention it to him!"

In fact, this is not to blame for Lin Chu, because Yuan Feili always has a negative attitude, closing the door during the day and sleeping soundly, ignoring anyone.

Such a lazy person, no one would expect anything from him.

Moreover, he is exceptionally intelligent and highly savvy. Although sometimes he is not tactful, and the cynic youth is fierce and uncontrollable by reason, but he likes to use his own intelligence to seize other people's weaknesses and play with them, and takes pleasure in poking other people's pain points. The more unpopular you are. (Yang Guo???)
At that moment, Si Shengxuan had a brief talk with Yuan Feili about the situation in Sishui Prefecture, and then saw him gearing up for fear of chaos.

Si Shengxuan and Lin Chu looked at each other in dismay. What's the matter with this junior brother's gloating expression?

For a long time, Yuan Feili often wondered why no one dared to rebel in such a dark and corrupt world.
After hearing the cause of the incident, he was naturally more inexplicably excited.

It's like everyone who is desperate for the world hopes that the world will be in chaos.

Because they have nothing left, nothing to lose, only anger with nowhere to vent.

So whether the world is in chaos or not, the latter makes it easier for people to see hope.

At that moment, Yuan Feili asked Si Shengxuan: "Then what is the court's reaction?"

Si Shengxuan said: "The imperial court means that we will wait for the opportunity to kill the leader of the bandit and quell the rebellion!"

After hearing this, Yuan Feili's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Lin Chu said: "Junior Brother Li, you are not deeply involved in the world, so you just take advantage of this trip to learn a lot!"

"Thank you, brother!"

Yuan Fei cupped his hands violently at Lin Chu, sneering in his heart.

It’s also hard for me, the Jingxie Sword Sect, who claims to be chivalrous, to do such a despicable thing.

Forget it, I was bored in the mountains, so I happened to go out to experience some prestige with Senior Brother Si, so that I could exchange for a rare weapon, and go out to see the world by the way!
In this way, the two first went to Lin Chu to issue a "Decree from the Royal History".

In addition to stating "name" and "grade", there is also an item of "level".

Because it is necessary to ensure the confidentiality of the errand, although it will not be written in too detail, it is clearly divided into four levels: A, B, C and D.

However, the mutiny in Sishui Prefecture belongs to category B, which can be regarded as a major event to be done urgently, and the treatment of travel expenses is naturally higher than that of categories C and D.

The two then went to the Foreign Affairs Minister's Mansion to collect the necessities of the mission, including two fast horses, twelve taels of gold beads, night clothes, hibiscus gold cream, nourishing qi and nourishing blood pills and other quack items for emergencies. The need, and then the two left Yujian Peak.
