In Xianwu, people evolve infinitely starting from the prince

"Ancient God Religion?"

When Yang An heard the name, he asked curiously, "What kind of force is this? I have never heard of it before?"

Gu Yunfeng smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, you don't know that the Ancient God Religion is not a sect native to Daqian, but comes from the Nannuo Continent. It believes in an ancient snake god named Arnold."

"In the Nannuo Continent, the power of the Ancient God Religion is extremely great. Basically everyone believes in the ancient god Arnold."

It seems that he is afraid that Yang An can't understand.

After Gu Yunfeng finished speaking, he did not forget to explain: "Because Haizhou is the southernmost Daozhou in Daqian, adjacent to the South China Sea, and to the south of the South China Sea is the Nannuo Continent."

"So there are many merchants and people from the Nannuo Continent living in Haizhou."

"Some of these people came to Daqian for profit, or because they offended the powerful and could not survive in the Nannuo Continent, so they took the risk of crossing the South China Sea and came to my Daqian."

"But don't worry about which situation."

"As long as they are from the Nannuo Continent, they are basically believers of the Ancient God Religion."

"And most of the Nannuo people who can safely cross the South China Sea are practitioners, with strange methods and their strength should not be underestimated."

"The most important thing is that these Nannuo people often live in groups, and they share what they have and help each other, which is extremely troublesome."

"So Your Highness must be careful."

Gu Yunfeng looked solemn and told Yang An what the Ancient God Religion was like.

"Nannuo people?"

Yang An's brain turned quickly, and soon he found the records about Nannuo continent and Nannuo people in his memory bank.

Nannuo continent and Nannuo people.

There are naturally records in the library of Daqian Palace.

Even when his predecessor was studying literature and Taoism, his teacher also talked about Nannuo continent and Nannuo people.

According to the "Daqian Fengwuzhi", "South of Shenzhou, there is the South China Sea. South of the sea, there is a large island called Nannuo Island."

"The area of ​​Nannuo Island is larger than that of the nine Daozhous of Daqian, and it is the largest island in the South China Sea."

"There are people on Nannuo Island, called Nannuo people, who use slash-and-burn farming and use giant snakes as totems."

"In the 79th year of Daqian, Emperor Taizong wanted to pacify the South China Sea and set Daozhou on Nannuo Island. Hundreds of officials dissuaded him, saying: 'Nannuo Island is far away from Shenzhou. It takes half a year for the court ships to arrive. It is across the sea, and transportation is inconvenient, communication is difficult, and it is not easy to manage. Moreover, Nannuo Island is barren, with few resources, and the islanders are barbaric and difficult to educate, which is of no benefit to the country.' Emperor Taizong heard it and abandoned it!"

"…………"

Yang An's mind turned, and information about the Nannuo continent and the Nannuo people quickly flashed through his mind.

In short.

The existence of the Nannuo continent and the Nannuo people is not a secret to the Daqian court.

Even as early as the founding of the Daqian Dynasty, Emperor Taizong had a great interest in the Nannuo Continent. He wanted to send troops to a distant land to pacify the South Seas and bring the Nannuo Continent under the rule of the Daqian Dynasty.

But the Nannuo Continent is too far away from Shenzhou.

So far that it takes half a year to reach by ship.

Such a long distance.

Let alone the problem of war logistics.

Even if the court conquered the Nannuo Continent, how to rule and manage it is also a huge problem.

In addition, the officials in the court at that time believed that the Nannuo Continent was barren, with few resources, and the people on the island were very barbaric and difficult to educate, which was not very helpful to the court.

So they persuaded Emperor Taizong to give up the idea of ​​pacifying the South Sea countries and attacking the Nannuo Continent.

The so-called ancient snake god is a giant snake, the totem of the Nannuo people.

When Yang An thought of this, he suddenly thought of a question and said, "No, I remember that the court has a clear regulation that no one can privately set up obscene sacrifices and worship evil gods, right?"

"Have the ancient snake gods worshipped by the Nannuo people and the Ancient God Cult obtained permission from our Daqian court?"

In terms of worshipping gods.

The Daqian court is absolutely serious.

Article 1,236 of the Daqian Law stipulates: "No one among the people of Daqian can offer sacrifices and privately worship evil gods. Violators will be directly executed and the whole clan will be exiled."

Why were the Wusheng Cult, Huangtian Cult, and Blood Demon Cult wanted and suppressed by the court?

It's not just because they are a scourge.

More importantly, they violated this law.

The human heart is power.

The ancient emperor finally ended the era of gods and knocked the high gods down from the clouds.

The later dynasties did not want the Shinto to rise again and override the martial arts and imperial power.

So in the Daqian Dynasty, ghosts and gods are absolutely a taboo that everyone wants to fight against.

These Nannuo people came to the Daqian Dynasty to believe in the ancient snake god and even created an ancient god cult. Did they ask the Daqian Dynasty for consent?

Gu Yunfeng heard this question and smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, the court law stipulates that no one in the Daqian Dynasty can offer sacrifices or privately worship the evil god. Violators will be executed directly and the whole clan will be exiled."

"The key is that these Nannuo people are not the people of our Daqian Dynasty."

"Most of them temporarily obtained the living area in the Daqian Dynasty, and they have never worshipped the ancient god Arnold in public, so it is probably difficult to use this reason to deal with them."

"The most important thing is that the Nannuo people are not the South Sea Pirate Alliance. They are extremely united and there are many of them. Once they are not handled properly, it will cause unpredictable consequences."

"So the Governor and others are also very troubled by these Nannuo people and have no idea how to deal with them."

The Daqian Dynasty was a kingdom in the heavenly dynasty and the suzerain state of the surrounding small countries. The concept of external propaganda was the kingly education, and the sea was open to all rivers, and it was great.

Therefore, the Daqian Dynasty did not exclude people from other countries from coming to settle in Daqian.

Although the problem of the Nannuo people has given Haizhou officials a headache.

But the national policy of the Daqian Dynasty was there, and it was not easy for them to drive the Nannuo people out of Daqian without making any mistakes.

Otherwise, once word of this gets out, it will definitely arouse fear and opposition from many subordinate countries.

When the blame comes from above, it will be the officials in Haizhou who are unlucky.

Therefore, successive governors of Haizhou and others turned a blind eye to the situation of the Nannuo people. As long as the Nannuo people and the Nanyang countries did not cause trouble, they would ignore it.

Hundreds of years passed like this.

These outsiders, especially the Nannuo people who were bound by faith, formed a powerful force that could not be lost.

Today's Nannuo people are no longer something Haizhou officials can handle.

If you want to get rid of them completely, you must ask for help.

However, although the Nannuo people were very powerful in Haizhou, they behaved extremely honestly and rarely made trouble, let alone went against the Daqian court.

This resulted in successive governors of Haizhou and others turning a blind eye to them. They never thought of completely solving this hidden danger during their term of office, and rarely even reported it to the court.

This is also the reason why Yang An did not see information about Nan Nuo and the Ancient God Cult in the Zongren Mansion.

Cover the lid!

The unique national conditions of the Daqian Dynasty.

Understand!

Therefore, Nannuo and the Ancient God Religion can not only be solved by force, but also have to consider the political impact.

If Yang An does not handle it properly, he will definitely be criticized and held accountable by the emperor.

And if Yang An doesn't deal with it.

The existence of the Ancient God Religion is another huge hidden danger for him. Once it breaks out, it will most likely affect his bid for the crown prince position.

This is why Gu Yunfeng reminded Yang An to be careful about the Ancient God Sect.

Yang An thought about this and said calmly: "Thank you uncle for reminding me. I already know about this matter."

How to deal with the Nanno people and the Ancient God Cult?

Yang An didn't have a good idea for a while.

Specifically, he would also need to read the archive information of the Arch Guard Department and the Imperial City Department, and ask the heads of these two departments before making a decision.

After all, it is related to offering sacrifices to gods.

Governor Haizhou and others can cover the lid and pretend not to know.

But Yang An didn't think that the two important intelligence and supervision departments, the Arch Guard Department and the Imperial City Department, dared not report the information.

It is more likely that people from the Haizhou Arch Guard Department and the Imperial City Department had already reported the situation of the Ancient God Sect, but Emperor Tailong did not deal with it for unknown reasons.

Yang An then thought of Emperor Tailong's gentle handling of the [investigation of the disappearance of the Tianxiang Kingdom mission] and the murder of the twelfth prince Yang Bing.

He just felt it.

My cheap father must have known about the Ancient God Religion, but he was worried about the Great Qian Dynasty and his reputation as the Benevolent Emperor and the Holy Emperor, so he turned a blind eye to Nannuo and the Ancient God Religion.

To put it bluntly, it means cherishing feathers.

In addition, the Ancient God Sect is only popular among the Nannuo people, has little influence, and is not strong. Unlike the three major cults, the Wusheng Sect, the Huangtian Sect, and the Blood Demon Sect, which can pose a threat to the imperial rule.

All kinds of factors add up.

In the end, the Nannuo people and the Ancient God Sect became invincible in Haizhouwei.

When Yang An thought of this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and he was speechless to his cheap father.

My cheap father only thinks about Da Qian and his reputation for benevolence and righteousness.

But they don’t know that being a king on the inside and a saint on the outside is not the way of a wise king!

It's no wonder that at this time when the Daqian Dynasty's national power was at its peak, there were still so many careerists ready to take action.

These are all for a reason!

Yang An sighed inwardly, but kept a calm expression on his face, directly skipping the topic of Nan Nuo and the Ancient God Cult, and continued to ask: "Aside from these three major forces, are there any other large forces in Haizhou that we should pay attention to? "

"In addition, how many martial arts experts are there among the major forces, and what are their relationship backgrounds?"

"What about the situation of the Nine Sects, Six Paths, Twelve Aristocratic Families, etc. in Haizhou?"

"..."

…………

While Yang An was in the Governor's Mansion of Haizhou, he was having questions and answers with his cheap uncle Gu Yunfeng to understand the basic situation of Haizhou.

The Gu family's mansion also welcomed a mysterious visitor.

"I have seen Senior Xue Tu. I wonder what the senior's orders are when he comes to my Gu family?"

Gu Yuncheng, the head of the Gu family, bowed his hands to a middle-aged man wearing black robes and with an unusually tall build, his expression extremely respectful.

no way.

The Venerable Blood Slaughter in front of me is one of the top ten elders of the Blood Soul Sect, and is also the person in charge of the Blood Soul Sect in Haizhou. He is a solid second-grade martial arts master.

He is also a top master who comes from the holy land of magic and possesses earth-shattering magic skills.

His name is Blood Slaughter.

Just from this, you can know what kind of murderer the man in front of you is.

Although the Gu family also has a second-grade martial arts master, the second-grade martial arts of the Zhoujun Family and the second-grade martial arts of the Holy Land Sect are completely different concepts.

Even say something unpleasant.

Second-level martial arts masters like Gu Jia are used to challenge those top-level warriors to leapfrog the level, and serve as a stepping stone to improve their performance.

Of course, in normal times, no powerful warrior would come to the Gu family specifically to improve their performance.

After all, the Gu family finally gave birth to an imperial concubine, who was a true relative of the emperor.

If anyone really comes to the Gu family to improve their record, what awaits him will definitely be the iron fist of justice from the imperial court.

Therefore, although Gu Yuncheng was extremely respectful to Venerable Blood Slaughter, he did not have much fear.

Not to mention that now his eldest nephew, the Thirteenth Prince Yang An, has arrived in Haizhou, and if nothing unexpected happens, Yang An will become Prince Daqian and the real lord of Haizhou in the near future.

The rise of their Gu family is just around the corner.

This made Gu Yuncheng undoubtedly more confident when facing the Blood Slaughter Master.

Lord Blood Slaughter naturally knew this.

So when he saw Gu Yuncheng, the head of the Gu family, he behaved very kindly and immediately laughed and said: "Haha, Master Gu is so polite. I am here this time, but I have something to trouble you about, Master Gu."

When Gu Yuncheng heard this, he did not agree directly, but said respectfully: "I don't know what the senior has ordered. As long as the junior can do it, I will definitely not refuse."

Venerable Blood Slaughter was slightly unhappy when he heard this.

If it were any other third-grade martial arts master who dared to talk to him like this, he would definitely slap him to death.

After all, his title of "Blood Slaughter" was not something that was touted to others at the wine table like a second-grade grandmaster from an aristocratic family.

If his temper wasn't a little too grumpy, he would have killed a lot more people.

His bloody slaughter will not be called a blood demon by those righteous warriors.

However, who made the Gu family give birth to a princess, and the princess gave birth to two princes? Even now, a prince has come to Haizhou and is preparing to complete the examination for Prince Daqian.

That's Prince Daqian.

In the Daqian Dynasty, any Prince of Daqian could stand on an equal footing with a first-level celestial master in martial arts.

Especially those princes who are vying for the position of Prince Daqian, even the headmasters of the Nine Sects and Six Paths, must bow in response when they see them.

The Blood Demon Lord has a reputation for self-awareness.

Although he is also a veteran second-grade martial arts master with good combat capabilities, in terms of status and identity, he is definitely not comparable to the Prince Daqian who is about to become a prince.

So even if he was dissatisfied with Gu Yuncheng's answer, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction and said pleasantly: "This matter is very important to our Blood Sect, but to the head of the Gu family, it is a trivial matter. So I hope Patriarch Gu can help me."

I heard Venerable Blood Slaughter carrying the Blood Soul Sect out.

Gu Yuncheng's brows immediately knitted into a tight frown.

Because of the existence of his imperial concubine and Yang An, although Gu Yuncheng was very respectful to Lord Blood Slaughter, he did not take him seriously.

After all, he knew very well that as long as the Blood Slaughter Master was not stupid, he would not dare to take the risk of being chased by the powerful men of the imperial court and take action against the Gu family.

But the Blood Soul Sect is different.

That is one of the Nine Sects and Six Paths.

The true holy land of magic.

If Venerable Blood Slaughter dares to attack the Gu family, the court can teach him how to behave in minutes.

But the Blood Soul Sect attacked the Gu family?

I am afraid that even the imperial court will think twice before starting a war with the Blood Soul Sect because of a Gu family.

The most they can do is to ask the Blood Soul Sect to give an explanation and introduce a few scapegoats.

So when the Blood Slaughter Master carried out the Blood Soul Sect, Gu Yuncheng had to think carefully.

Because their Gu family cannot afford to offend.

Lord Blood Slaughter also knew this, so after he finished speaking, he stopped talking and sat there very calmly, waiting for Gu Yuncheng's answer.

This is a battle of initiative.

it is a pity.

Gu Yuncheng lost.

Just because the strength is not as good as others.

After a long silence, Gu Yuncheng waved his hand, dismissed all the maids in the hall, and asked with a bitter look on his face: "I wonder what the Lord wants from our Gu family?"

In this matter, he called Venerable Blood Slaughter Venerable instead of Senior. The reason was very simple.

Because at this time, the Blood Slayer Venerable does not represent himself, but the Blood Soul Sect of the Demonic Holy Land.

Seeing Gu Yuncheng's submission, Venerable Blood Tu said solemnly: "The Gu family does not need to be like this. Our Blood Soul Sect is a law-abiding martial arts sect. We will definitely not be able to do things like deceiving the emperor, assassinating the king, etc." of."

"I came here this time just to ask the head of the Gu family to introduce the Thirteenth Prince to you."

"Because I have received the news that the Thirteenth Prince's mission for the kingship assessment this time is to wipe out the White God Pirates. The reason why the court wants to wipe out the White God Pirates is because there are rumors that the White God Pirates looted the court's spiritual crystal ship. ”

"As we all know, the White God Pirates and I have a close friendship with the Blood Sect."

"As a martial arts sect that abides by laws and regulations, our Blood Soul Sect naturally has to find out the cause of the matter and give an explanation to the court after learning about it."

"But according to our Blood Soul Sect's investigation, a few months ago, the White God Pirates had never attacked the Imperial Navy or looted the Imperial Spirit Crystal Ship. This matter was completely framed by someone who framed the White God Pirates."

"This matter concerns the reputation of our Bloodline Sect, so I can only shamelessly come to your residence. I hope that the head of the Gu family can introduce the Thirteenth Prince on his behalf and explain the matter clearly to the Thirteenth Prince, so as not to cause any misunderstandings and let the real murderer know. Get away with it.”

The Venerable Blood Slayer was extremely angry when he said this.

He never thought that someone would frame their Blood Soul Sect.

In fact, if I hadn't suddenly received the news, I would have known that the princeling assessment mission of the Thirteenth Prince Yang An was related to the White God Pirate Group.

He, the head of Haizhou of the Blood Demon Sect, didn't even know that he had taken such a big blame.

That is to say, I don't know who is so bold.

He dared to throw the blame on the head of their Xuepo Sect.

It's just that the tiger doesn't show its power, and everyone treats him as a sick cat.

Or do you think that he, the Venerable Xue Tu, can't lift the knife?

As for why Venerable Xue Tu was able to investigate so quickly, whether the White God Pirates attacked the imperial navy and looted the imperial crystal ship a month ago.

Would he tell you that he is the leader of the White God Pirates, the White Demon Pirate Qin Youde?

No one knows his injustice better than the wronged party.

So after Venerable Xue Tu understood the cause and effect of the imperial court's plan to wipe out the White God Pirates, he flew back angrily from 800 miles overseas.

But he is not a fool.

Although he was angry because he was wronged, he didn't foolishly go to the Governor's Mansion to appeal for injustice, but came to the Gu family as soon as possible, ready to let the Gu family introduce the thirteenth prince Yang An on his behalf.

After all, Yang An's task of becoming a king has been issued, and the matter of wiping out the White God Pirates has become settled, and no one can change it.

Venerable Xue Tu is very clear.

What he needs to do most now is not to prove his innocence.

Instead, he must contact the Thirteenth Prince Yang An as soon as possible, and the two sides must reach a consensus on the White God Pirates and the search for the mastermind behind the scenes to maximize their interests.

Brainless fighting and killing is what a reckless man does.

Although Venerable Xue Tu is cruel, bloodthirsty, and likes to set fires.

But he is definitely not a stupid reckless man. He knows what to do and what not to do, and he knows how to maximize his interests and minimize the losses of the Blood Soul Sect as much as possible.

If he is really a reckless man.

He can't be the head of the Blood Soul Sect in Haizhou.

Isn't it just the way of the world?

This old devil also understands it.
