Baita Village is not far from Geling City, nor is it far from the mountain where Lin Ye practices. In fact, Baita Village is at the foot of this mountain, and Baita is behind the village.
Therefore, Mo Wutong, who had been waiting here early, was in a particularly complicated mood. He was dressed in casual clothes and was regarded as a villager, so he did not ask too many questions.
The Forbidden Army soldiers who came on duty said that the Qintian Supervisor observed the sky at night and found that a huge meteorite might fall in the mountains, so the people were asked not to leave the village, let alone enter the mountains.
About two hundred Forbidden Army soldiers were left outside the village to guard and prevent entry and exit. The villagers were simple and honest, and naturally they would not doubt the court's words.
But Mo Wutong knew that it was definitely not a falling meteorite, because he felt the surging power of cultivation on the mountain.
That’s someone practicing! The person who allowed the imperial court to close the mountain for cultivation was naturally remarkable, and Mo Wutong would not bother to go and see who it was.
He just needs to wait quietly for Chen Weiwei in the village. He has no interest in other things at all.
Mo Wutong sat under the white tower and felt the frightening power on the mountain, guessing that it must be a terrifying cultivation level that could only be achieved by those at the peak of the Wuyue Realm or even the God-endowed Realm.
I don’t know who the big shot is. But he didn't think about whether it could be Lin Ye, because in his understanding, Lin Ye should still be in Dongbo at this time.
All he could think about was Chen Weiwei... a very complicated emotion. If we really want to talk about brotherly feelings, his feelings for Chen Weiwei are certainly greater than his feelings for Lin Ye.
He knew this very well and was very sure of it, but he just didn't know why. Every time he thought about this issue, he still felt a little guilty towards Lin Ye.
Except for him, all the brothers who were in the martial arts school at that time took refuge with Lin Ye, and they all had excellent futures.
The best among them are now generals, and even those who abandoned military service and embraced civil service now have some people who have become governors.
So at that time Mo Wutong made his choice... He felt that Chen Weiwei could not be made to look lonely.
Mo Wutong knew that Chen Weiwei had some personality problems when he was in the martial arts gym, but Chen Weiwei treated him well. The two of them were good friends who talked about everything, so he couldn't even treat him when everyone chose to join Lin Ye. Forgot Chen Weiwei.
He knew what Chen Weiwei told him to do was wrong, but he didn't know why he did it according to Chen Weiwei's instructions.
Maybe it’s because Chen Weiwei kept telling him how ambitious she was, how much she wanted to surpass Lin Ye, how much she wanted to be the pride of her master and his wife... one step at a time. With one step, Mo Wutong has come to where he is today.
At some point, Mo Wutong noticed that the officers and soldiers outside the village had withdrawn, and most of the smoke and dust on the mountain had dispersed. It seemed that the man practicing on the mountain had also left.
Mo Wutong was sitting under the white tower and was too lazy to get up. He had no curiosity at all and didn't want to see who it was. Who else could it be besides a powerful person?
As for which dignitary it was, Mo Wutong was not interested in knowing. He himself has never thought about whether his current slightly extreme thoughts were influenced by Chen Weiwei.
Not long after, he saw a huge team passing by on the official road outside the village. I saw that there was actually a very high-standard honor guard team, probably the auxiliary ministers who were respected in the service office.
"The powerful..." Mo Wutong muttered to himself. Like Chen Weiwei, he comes from a poor family, and relatively speaking he is better off than Chen Weiwei.
Mo Wutong's blood boiled when he thought of Chen Weiwei's vow to surpass all those who were born rich and become the master of these people.
So much so that he had forgotten that the people he contacted for Chen Weiwei this time seemed to be powerful people.
More than twenty years ago, when the Supreme Saint Xie Fuwei had just become the Jade Emperor, he had to pretend to be crazy and act stupid to hide himself. At that time, Xie Fuwei did many things that seemed extremely ridiculous.
Within about seven or eight years, Xie Fu granted nearly a thousand people the title of marquis and nearly a hundred people the title of king. These people were so prosperous that they didn't even notice the restraint Xie Fu had set up for each other behind this ridiculous approach.
Because there were too many fiefs, there were many fiefdom problems. This person's fiefdom was on that person's territory, and that person's fiefdom was on a third person's territory.
At that time, Xie Fuwei seemed to be a really dissolute and unscrupulous person, so no one suspected whether he did it on purpose.
After all, it seemed that every time he made a title like a prince or a king, he said it casually without any consideration.
Who would care so much about a fool? Then, the conflicts among these people who were granted the title of lord or king became more and more serious in private.
For example, someone from the Zhao family was granted a title, but the fiefdom was in the place where the ancestral home of someone from the Zhang family was located. The Zhang family was more powerful than the Zhao family, and the Zhang family who had a fiefdom from the Zhao family had to pay taxes to the Zhao family. Land rent... Because of such conflicts, many families who originally seemed to be in harmony got into trouble and even fought secretly.
This kind of thing is not uncommon. Of course, no one cares whether Xie Fuwei did it on purpose.
After all, at that time, even Wang Luoshen and others no longer doubted whether Xie Fuwei was really stupid and ridiculous.
Later, when Xie Fuwei tightened his control over power, these people discovered to their horror that they seemed to have no power to fight back.
The smarter people began to petition for removal from the title, while the lucky ones felt that as long as they shrank their heads, they would not be pulled out and chopped.
After Lin Ye grew up, the number of times Xie Fuwei dropped the butcher knife began to accelerate. Lin Ye did not deal with so many follow-up matters, but this does not mean that there are no follow-up matters.
The person who has handled the most is Xumi Pianruo. In the case of Wang Luoshen, Xumi Pianruo followed the emperor's wishes to investigate to the end. People involved with the Wang family were arrested one after another. In the end, the number of people implicated reached almost 30,000 people.
In the case of Wang Luoshen alone, there were between five and six hundred people who had been named princes or kings involved.
Thanks to Wang Luoshen's rebellion, these people's heads were chopped off in unison. Later, many people were implicated in the Guo Geming and Liu Tingsheng rebellion cases. From the beginning of the case to the present, more than 10,000 heads have been chopped off before the case was closed.
In fact, several years have passed since Wang Luoshen's case, but it still has not been closed.
As long as the case is not closed, the court will immediately investigate it whenever it thinks of it. If the case is not closed, the court can use this as an excuse to drag anyone into the case.
Mo Wutong traveled to many places and met many people this time. In fact, the result was not so satisfactory to him because most people were afraid.
Those who are still alive live in trepidation every day, wishing they could start their lives over again. It would be great to return to the moment when they were feudal lords. At that time, they refused directly, and in the future they must restrain themselves and never show off.
But now everything is too late, the Supreme Saint Lord has abdicated, but the killing of them is not over yet.
Just last month, people from Dali Temple found out that the Song family in Jiangning had funded Liu Tingsheng. Although there was no direct evidence for this, some clues were uncovered.
The Song family, which had existed for hundreds of years, was directly ransacked, and more than a thousand members of the three clans were arrested and brought to justice.
Mo Wutong arrived late. When he arrived at the Song family, he happened to see the army raiding the Song family completely. Not to mention rummaging through the boxes and cabinets, they even had to scrape the cracks in the bricks.
However, there is good news for Chen Weiwei and Mo Wutong. It is precisely because this kind of liquidation is so high-pressure that many people are resentful. On the surface, they are respectful and obedient, but in fact they are also trying to find ways to fight.
After all, no one wants to have their family destroyed. This time, Mo Wutong contacted many families, and more than two dozen of them made it clear that they were willing to compete.
Although these families are not as prosperous as they were twenty years ago, after all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and besides, they are not skinny yet.
These big families are all powerful in the local area, and some families can be said to be emperors of the country. He is rich and powerful, so he naturally has a lot of people in his hands, including many masters. These people can all be used by Chen Weiwei.
Mo Wutong's brain was much better than Chen Weiwei's. In order to prevent these people from changing their minds, he specially wrote a covenant and asked all those who were willing to form an alliance to put their bloody fingerprints on it.
In this way, these people become people in the same boat. Anyone who escapes from battle will inevitably die in the end.
This time, these families also sent people to come to Geling quietly one after another. They wanted to find an opportunity to gather to discuss important matters.
Mo Wutong came back first to discuss the matter with Chen Weiwei in detail. After all, before leaving Geling, Chen Weiwei never thought that Mo Wutong could do such a big scene.
Mo Wutong's thinking ability is far superior to Chen Weiwei's, but Chen Weiwei actually looks down on Mo Wutong deep down.
He felt that Mo Wutong could not have any great future. He only said that Mo Wutong's talent in cultivation was far inferior to his.
But who would have thought that Mo Wutong had a convincing eloquence, an easy-to-use mind, and could always be recognized by people when analyzing the pros and cons, plus a seemingly sincere heart, so this matter was actually accomplished by him. .
Although this process was not fast and lasted for a full two years, the power it would bring once it was formed was immeasurable.
At this time, in a small mountain town about thirty miles away from Baita Village, at least a hundred people were waiting for Mo Wutong's reply.
Mo Wutong did not ask them to follow Baita Village directly, but only asked them to wait for the news. At this moment, High Entropy came sneakily.
Mo Wutong was a little unhappy when he saw this person, and his sinister look made people feel disgusted from the bottom of his heart.
"Excuse me, is this Uncle Mo?" Gao Entropy, who is thirty years older than Mo Wutong, asked in an extremely humble manner, which made Mo Wutong even more disgusted with this person.
"Who are you?"
"It was the Temple Master who sent me to pick up Uncle Mo. The Temple Master cannot leave Fengyu Temple, so..."
"Why can't he leave Fengyu Temple?"
"Because..." Gao Entropy recounted what happened recently. Of course, he could not speak ill of Chen Weiwei. He kept describing the imperial court and the Supreme Saint as enemies that could not coexist, and his words were quite harsh. fierce.
Of course Mo Wutong knew that this guy's words should not be fully believed, but he could also analyze from it that the situation was indeed very serious now.
"You said that the temple master has entered the state of divine empowerment?"
"Yes, yes, not long ago." Mo Wutong sighed in his heart, thinking that Chen Weiwei had actually entered Fu Shen, and when he was in the martial arts hall, Chen Weiwei seemed to be on the same level as him.
When he saw Mo Wutong's reaction, Gao Entropy was keenly aware that Mo Wutong felt a little uncomfortable.
But he didn't dare to say it. He smiled and said: "Master Temple Master has been waiting for the good news of Uncle Mo. If Master Mo doesn't come back, Master Temple Master will go crazy with anxiety. Master Temple Master has mentioned to me more than once that without Master Mo Uncle, he seems to have no backbone." Although Mo Wutong knew that this sentence was false, he was still quite satisfied.
"In this case, it is not convenient for me to return to Geling City. When you go back, tell Chen Weiwei that I have contacted twenty-eight powerful families and have made a blood alliance..." Mo Wutong looked around After looking at it, he lowered his voice and said: "Go back and tell him that if he can trust me, I will arrange these people and control the situation. Judging from the current situation, it is not appropriate to hold meetings in Geling City at this time. Wait until Now when His Majesty has to go north, this is our chance." When Mo Wutong said this, he raised his chin slightly: "Don't worry, I will plan everything properly." Gao Entropy nodded immediately: "Mo Don't worry, Uncle Master, I will definitely tell the Master of the Temple about you." What he was thinking in his heart was that after returning, he must remind the Master of the Temple to be careful about this Mo Wutong. This person seems to have great ambitions... ...
