different devil life

I also know that although I can hold this place, but under the blockade for a long time, it is easy to cause a lack of supplies here, so overseas trade can make up for this shortcoming.

It's just that before his plan was implemented, he heard a report that a fleet was coming from the sea.

Now tens of thousands of enemy troops have landed. Although this number is not large, don't forget that the enemy has guns and cannons.

Their troops basically die on contact.

"Hehehe...it's over, it's all over..."

Knowing the news, Gao Yan cried, he knew that his situation was over.

Qiu Renzhong sighed, exchanged glances with the ministers, and all went down.

Gao Yan no longer has the heart to fight, and from this day on, he is infatuated with the harem.

As for the other ministers, some of them took gold and silver treasures and hid them among the common people, becoming local rich men.

Some fled overnight to Dayan Dynasty.

Most of them fled overseas. After all, the Haiyan Empire was originally a sea-based country with many ships.

A month later, Wang Zhong finally led his team into the canyon.

Three days later, when he arrived in Haiyan City, Gao Yan had already killed himself, and his housekeeper, father and family all committed suicide.

Some of his servants who were loyal to him also died or fled.

"You are Qiu Renzhong." Wang Zhong looked at Qiu Renzhong who was kneeling on the ground. Wang Zhong had heard about this person for a long time.

It is rumored that he is a military adviser, and many schemes come from his hands.

"Exactly." Qiu Renzhong sighed: "I haven't met Mingjun, and I wanted to persuade Gao Yan a long time ago, but he didn't listen."

"Don't talk nonsense, you can kill yourself." Wang Zhong threw a sword over.

"Your Majesty, although I have committed a capital crime, I can assist you and help you make great achievements."

Qiu Renzhong frowned, he thought he was useful.

"No need, your master is dead, you should follow him."

Qiu Renzhong swallowed: "But your majesty, I... I am thinking of the people."

"Hehe, it's okay for you to lie to others, but you want to lie to me?"

Wang Zhong smiled disdainfully. Speaking of which, Qiu Renzhong was nothing more than a pedantic literati.

This is the kind of person he dislikes the most.

There is a sentence that sums it up very well. Since ancient times, literati have been heartless.

Qiu Renzhong picked up the sword tremblingly: "The sword is too cold."

"Then dive in."

Wang Zhong pointed to the small river next to it.

Qiu Renzhong backed away in fear: "The water...the water is also cold, I'm afraid of the cold."

This is the character of a literati.

Wang Zhong was impatient to talk nonsense, and with a wave of his hand, the guards came up behind him and escorted him away.

"Since you don't want to commit suicide, then ask to be beheaded."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, I know all kinds of magic, I can assist you, assist you..."

Of course, Wang Zhong ignored Qiu Renzhong's words and asked someone to drag him out.

After unifying the entire Great Yan Dynasty, Wang Zhong completely integrated the forces on the grassland. In order to allow himself to completely control these forces, Wang Zhong invented the railway.

Three years later, because of the emergence of the railway, the mobility of the entire country has been greatly enhanced.

In a blink of an eye, Wang Zhong was 40 years old.

Today's Dayan Dynasty is smooth and the weather is smooth, the country is prosperous and the people are safe, and the territory has expanded to an extremely terrifying point.

People's lives are better, but many social problems have also emerged.

The most common one is the question of faith.

Originally, there is kung fu in this world, but the kung fu in this world is only internal strength.

But for some reason, an organization emerged from pass to pass.

Immortal sect, it is said that those who enter this sect can attain Taoism and cultivate immortality.

This organization is extremely mysterious, and no one knows who is behind it, but if there are already many people in the Immortal Sect.

In order to join this sect, many people would go bankrupt and sell their children and daughters, just to become gods.

In the end, many officials joined the sect.

This morning, Wang Zhong looked up several memorials, and said with a frown, "Masters, recently I noticed that a sect of the Immortal Sect appeared in the rivers and lakes, which caused many social turmoil, which made me very disturbed."

Said, Wang Zhong waved to a little eunuch beside him.

The little eunuch understood, stood up and shouted loudly: "Half a year ago, a middle-aged couple in Liucheng stole an old cow from a family named Xie in the same village because they believed in the teachings of the gods. The family named Xie found out in the middle of the night and caused a fight. He was beaten to death by the disciples of the Immortal Cult who came later. Although many disciples were imprisoned, the instigator was safe and sound."

"Three months ago, a wealthy family surnamed Wang in Beijing listened to the teachings of the gods and sacrificed their daughter to him. The daughter refused and was beaten to death by the couple and the teaching staff. No one was punished."

"Two months ago, the villagers of Mingcun developed the Immortal Sect. One family refused to join the sect. In the end, the envoy of the Immortal Sect accused that family of being a ghost, and they were burned alive. No one was punished."

"A month ago, a great envoy in Greentown summoned a thousand young girls to be his wives in the name of saving sentient beings, which aroused public grievances from some non-believers, because the local city lord is a member of the Immortal Sect and helped the Immortal Sect to speak, and ordinary people were suppressed. , a considerable number of villagers came to Beijing to visit and declare their grievances.”

"20 days ago..."

A case list was read aloud by the young eunuch, which made many ministers frown.

Chapter 657 Immortal Religion (This article will end soon)

After reading for about half an hour, the little eunuch finally finished reading the case list.

After finishing speaking, the little eunuch bowed his waist and stepped back.

Only at this time did Wang Zhong speak: "My lords, I believe you have already heard about the Immortal Sect. There have been a lot of incidents recently, which have greatly affected my country. Why do you think so?"

All the ministers looked at each other, and finally, a minister came out: "Your Majesty, although these incidents were caused by the Immortal Sect, the root cause is that these are caused by people's ignorance of the Immortal Sect."

"That's right. We can use the Dayan Chao Daily to instill in the people the goodness of the Immortal Sect. The king of the Immortal Sect is for the common people to go to heaven, so he descends to save all sentient beings."

"Yeah yeah……"

For a while, several ministers helped the Immortals to speak.

"fart!"

Unexpectedly, a young minister stood up at this time: "Your Majesty, the Immortal Sect keeps saying that it can make people go to heaven, but what they do is all mere deeds. For example, asking for a wife and daughter, for example, asking for money, There are countless cases of enslaving others and brainwashing others' minds, which have seriously affected the lives of the people, so please let the emperor learn from you."

Wang Zhong frowned and said, "That's it, but why do I think this Immortal Cult is not bad?"

A minister's eyes lit up before, and he hurriedly stood up: "Your Majesty, the Immortal Sect really allows people to attain Taoism and cultivate immortality. This veteran has seen it with his own eyes."

"Yes, I've seen it too. The so-called asking for money and wives and daughters is just to teach emissaries to think about the people. Many people are eager to do this."

"Oh, that's it, why are you so eager to do this?" Wang Zhong pretended to be strange and asked.

"If you go back to the emperor, it's because you can achieve Taoism and become an immortal after fulfilling what the envoy said. It is everyone's dream to become an immortal."

The minister who spoke showed longing. Obviously, he was also influenced by Immortal Sect.

"As for the so-called enslaving others, I don't even know where to start, because those people are willing to be slaves of the teaching envoy. Only after serving the teaching envoy can they become immortals."

Wang Zhong looked at the group of civil and military officials and had an idea in his heart.

These years, because of Guotai Minan's relationship, he has also been leisurely for a while, basically accompanying the queens and concubines to wander here and there, so leisurely.

But without paying attention, this immortal sect gradually grew bigger.

As a modern person, he knows how harmful the evil cult is. Now it seems that even his court ministers believe in it.

If it goes on like this, it will be a big trouble.

Therefore, Wang Zhong's next step is to eradicate the Immortal Sect and restore the world to a bright future.

"Please, the emperor's enlightenment."

Said the person who praised Immortal Sect before.

"Well, from this point of view, it's really good." Wang Zhong nodded slightly.

Several ministers who supported Immortal Sect were overjoyed: "Your Majesty, I have the courage to make a proposal."

"Say."

"I think that the Immortal Sect can make people become immortals and cure all kinds of diseases. It is simply the best sect. Why not develop the Immortal Sect into a national religion and guide the world to join the Immortal Sect."

If it wasn't for Wang Zhong's desire to dig out the teaching king behind the scenes, Wang Zhong would have arranged for someone to pull this minister out and chop him up.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Zhong showed a harmless smile: "Okay, okay, your proposal is very good, but unfortunately, the king of the Immortal Sect is missing, and the high-level officials don't know anyone, how to develop the state religion? "

According to Wang Zhong's investigation, the Immortal Sect is well-organized, and the highest leader is the Jiaowang.

Followed by the queen, the great teacher, the teacher, the messenger.

Messenger is responsible for preaching.

Finally, there are ordinary congregants. ,

At present, in all major cities and villages, the largest ones are basically the Grand Envoys. It is said that no one has ever seen the King and Empress because they are very mysterious.

"If you go back to the emperor, the Grand Envoy happens to live in the old minister's house." A minister said happily.

Wang Zhong knew that the minister was called Zhang Jilin, and he was overjoyed immediately: "Okay, Zhang Aiqing, I never thought that the Grand Envoy would live in your house. This is a great honor."

Zhang Jilin's face was flushed, and he said refreshedly: "Thank you, the emperor, for your praise. Speaking of which, it took a lot of effort for the great teacher to live in my house."

"Tell me about it." Wang Zhong said.

"The old minister paid three visits to the thatched cottage before he invited the great teacher to come to my house. Moreover, the great teacher saw at a glance that the two daughters of the old minister were spiritual fetuses. He asked the two daughters of the old minister to stay in his room every day to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. In time, The old minister's two daughters will surely become immortals..."

It's really ignorant, this kind of big flicker really made Zhang Jilin stunned for a while.

Wang Zhong didn't say much, and said: "Very well, let the Grand Envoy arrange for me to get to know the King, in recognition of the contribution of the Immortal Sect to our country, and give him the state religion!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"By the way, some of you said that you saw with your own eyes that the Immortal Sect can make people become immortals. Tell me, what's going on?"

Wang Zhong felt that there must be something wrong here, so he had to ask clearly.

"Zhang Aiqing, let me tell you."

Zhang Jilin came up and said: "Your Majesty, it's like this. I participated in a speech meeting of the teaching king and saw the teaching king with my own eyes. .”

"What kind of eradication method?"

"The king threw a pile of powder, and the congregation ignited a fire on the spot, and finally the evil thing was eliminated."

For these little tricks, Wang Zhong naturally knew what was going on, they were nothing more than some little magic tricks.

But for the ancient times where the information was blocked, it was a fairy art.

Originally, many liars in ancient times were said to be miraculous, and gradually they became some kind of gods. Magic, in fact, is just some scams.

Wang Zhong didn't expose it, nodded and said: "Zhang Aiqin, the task of contacting the teaching king is entrusted to you. Make good contact. After the matter is completed, I will reward you a lot."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhang Jilin was overjoyed.

For several days in a row, the Dayan Asahi Daily published explosive news.

Immortal religion can save all living beings and benefit the people. The emperor plans to bestow immortal religion as the state religion, so that everyone in the world can learn from it.

This incident caused an uproar.

People who have suffered a lot from Immortal Cult don't understand, how can this kind of teaching become popular?

People who believed in Immortal Sect were all overjoyed when they heard the news, and they all said that the emperor is wise.

Seven days later, a middle-aged man with a masked face, wearing white clothes, and a fairy-like appearance, pulled a woman also wearing white clothes into the court hall.

These two people are the teaching king and queen of the Immortal Sect.

They now control the entire Immortal Sect's believers, and they don't see any power on the surface, but they raise their arms, and countless believers are their subordinates.
