In the Blade

Every Yu person wants to become a saint, this is their ultimate dream.

Of course, they would not say this on the surface. They would only modestly say that they are still in the process of learning. How dare they make such unrealistic delusions? They would say that they study to increase their wisdom. Expand your knowledge in order to become a better person.

So who is this better person?

You only need to open the book they are reading to know this.

They learn the words of the saints and imitate the behavior of the saints. When they open the book of the saints, they are moving step by step towards the back of the saints - of course, because the image of the saints is too vague, readers also have different understandings of the saints. of.

For example, Ruan Shantao, who lives in seclusion in Yanzhou, his understanding of saints is more inclined to educate all people, teaching all people without distinction. However, Prime Minister Jia Wen, who usurped the throne, his understanding of saints is more inclined to the saint king living in the world and subduing all living beings.

"So what do I want?"

Bai Wujiu, who was flipping through the book, raised his head.

In terms of status, he is Jia Wen's student, so it stands to reason that he should inherit Jia Wen's orthodoxy. He should become the ancient holy king and the ruler of this world. Even if this process requires Use some less glorious methods, but as long as the goal can be achieved, it is all worth it.

But is it really worth it?

His teacher, the former prime minister, had been scolded as a shameful traitor before he usurped the throne, and after he came to the throne, he was even regarded as a traitor who usurped the throne - indeed, Jia Wen did have skills, and even actually sat on the throne. He sat on that throne, but it only lasted one day before he was killed on the spot by a master who came to seek revenge.

The road to the Holy King has just begun, and he was beaten to death in the Golden Palace before he could even realize his ideals. Is it really worth it?

"So, some approach is needed."

Bai Wu Jiu once again confirmed his determination.

Indeed, as a student of Prime Minister Jia Wen, he also wanted to become the Ancient Holy King, but unlike his teacher who died tragically, he would never let anyone come to trouble him - just as he named himself The name is the same, no blame, no mistakes, or in other words, no one can catch his flaws.

What happens behind the scenes will only stay behind the scenes. At least on the surface, he has always been flawless.

This is also why he is the only one who can come to Dengzhou. He will not easily make enemies with anyone. As long as the hatred can be resolved, he will not make any enemies with the other party. It is also this concept of multiple friends and multiple paths. He quickly took control of the entire Dengzhou. Although the governor's office still ruled Dengzhou on the surface, Bai Wujiu himself had become the de facto lord of Dengzhou.

Of course, he still won't be stupid enough to jump into the open, at least not now. Before the uprising begins, he will never reveal his identity.

After all, whoever jumps out now will take the blame.

Just like the previous manager Deng Zhou, if he likes to jump out, it will kill people.

"Yes, this is my path, this is my way of doing things."

Closing the page, Bai Wujiu ended his practice today.

This is a practice method called "mindfulness", and it is also considered a unique practice method of the Yu people. Unlike those warriors who pay attention to moving according to their hearts and wielding their weapons at will, these scholars pay more attention to whether they can achieve their goals—— However, in the process of achieving the goal, it is inevitable that some complicated thoughts will appear. For example, Bai Wujiu recently was thinking about whether he should just recruit people to kill the Wangyou Township.

After all, the behavior of the organization that called itself Wangyou Township was too bizarre. Bai Wujiu thought about it for three days and three nights, but he still couldn't figure out why the other party agreed to supply supplies, even at an extremely low price.

You must know that they have had enemies before. What on earth is going on?

Normal logic cannot understand such behavior. It is more like doing things by patting one's head on the head. Bai Wujiu even thought that the other party's intelligence was defective, but how could a truly mentally retarded person have such a huge amount of property?

If it is just the ability to kill people, a mentally retarded person can indeed do it. After all, there are not a few martial arts lunatics who release their evil energy. Even those who have survived the threshold of releasing their evil energy will have different ideas from most people - - But the current large-scale shipments are not done by weak intelligence. The large amount of daily necessities exported already shows the absolute hard power of the other party.

And if you only look at this hand, the opponent's strength may even be higher than Dengzhou. After all, all the rebels are hoarding supplies now, waiting for the uprising, but there are some people who can ship in large quantities. This is enough to show that the opponent's The preparations are far more complete than those of the rebels.

"So not making enemies is the best choice."

Thinking of this, Bai Wujiu once again confirmed that his ideas were correct, and those temporary worries were just distracting thoughts that needed to be eliminated.

"Multiple friends, multiple paths, at least don't initiate any conflicts."

With this thought in mind, Bai Wu Jiu opened the document handed over by his subordinate.

What is recorded in the document is about other trade matters. After all, Dengzhou is close to the northwest border. Although it is a little desolate, there are enough business transactions - and now, two caravans have arrived in Dengzhou. , want to get the purchasing permission from the Governor's Office.

And this is also the reason why he chose to look at it later with righteous thoughts.

After all, although one of the caravans did a good job on the surface, Bai Wujiu could still tell at a glance that it was a team sent by the grassland people. Now that the Khan was gone on the northern grassland, it was a situation of being leaderless. It was unknown which head wanted to take this opportunity to strengthen his strength and make a big move.

Of course, this was an ideal situation. The undesirable situation was that the head would go directly south after strengthening his strength. The grassland people and the Southern Chen had long been enemies, and any material allocation to them could be considered aiding the enemy.

"But I'm not a Chen person."

Bai Wujiu shook his head and laughed.

"So, do you want to be friends?"

After frowning, Bai Wujiu finally put the customs clearance document aside and looked at another piece of paper.

The other customs document was even more outrageous. It was not from the Chen people, nor from the grassland people, but from the Yi people further west. Unlike the grassland people who wanted to buy food and iron materials, the Yi people wanted to buy land. Those Yi people wanted to build a trading post here for long-term trade. For this, they were willing to pay for gold, silver, jewelry, and the fine steel materials that Dengzhou City needed most at the moment.

"If it's a warehouse, it's okay."

Bai Wujiu's eyes were fixed on the middle of the paper.

"But we have to build a temple... What are we going to do?"

Yesterday, in order to be energetic in writing, I drank two bottles of black oolong tea and two bottles of Red Bull. I fainted directly, and I was confused and couldn't sleep. My brain was broken all day. Now it's really a hell to make up for the update.

In addition: Thank you all for your recommendation votes and monthly tickets, thank you for your encouragement and support.

I will continue to write and try to write another chapter before twelve o'clock.
