After Jiang Tian left, Shangshu's right servant She Nan Huaigong, who was in charge of questioning, turned to the other people who had witnessed all this and said: "My lords, you all believe that the vision in the sky mentioned above is actually The shackles of heaven and earth are loosened, the two realms are colliding and conflicting, and the changes are becoming more and more frequent?"
"So what if you believe it? So what if you don't believe it?" One of them slowly said: "Even if there is no vision in the sky, aren't the changes and strange objects in this world increasing day by day? Compared with this fleeting thing, aren't they? If there are abnormal celestial phenomena, it is better to carefully consider the impact of earthquakes."
"Of course I am willing to believe it!" However, another voice sounded and came forward from behind the curtain: "Because I am one of those who feel the same way; if you ignore the warnings and signs in the sky, then why bother? Stay in this position and continue to eat corpses?"
When everyone saw it, it was clear that Ji Xiang Liu Zhan had returned to the court in good health. They couldn't help but whisper among themselves. However, someone else said: "Since Ji Xiang showed up and said it, there must be some basis for it; but now. In this situation, isn’t it how to give an explanation to the world?”
"What's so embarrassing about this?" Someone then said nonchalantly: "It's just a rare sky phenomenon, plus a moment of earthquakes. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, we have experienced large and small earthquakes, as well as occasional earthquakes in the past dynasties. Such visions are not uncommon in history books, so why worry?"
"What does Wen Zuocheng mean?" Someone immediately hit the snake and followed the stick and said uncertainly:
"Of course, it will be handled according to past stories." Wen Zuocheng said immediately: "Let Si Tianjian and the Taishi Bureau directly announce the announcement, saying that the Lingtai has observed it, this is a mirage that is rare to see in a hundred years; let the generals from all over the world The people are all in their places, just like in the past; there is no need to disturb yourself..."
"Does Wen Zuocheng think that just relying on the words of Si Tianjian and Taishi Bureau can convince people and reassure them?" Then someone else questioned face to face: "Today's world is no longer the same as in the past; changes are happening all the time. How many people in the world would believe such a far-fetched statement?"
"But it's better than doing nothing and saying nothing!" However, Wen Zuocheng said more firmly: "Not only must the list be made public, but it must also be widely announced to the world through flying telegraph messages through large and small nets! Now! The point is not to be convincing, but to the court’s attitude towards identifying the celestial phenomena.”
"As long as the central court and local officials can work together to understand each other, they can naturally guide public opinion and reverse the cognitive trend of the people!" Wen Zuocheng added: "But the court's decree must be done quickly, before rumors spread. , so that local governments can have a statement that can be used as evidence."
"But this is only a temporary countermeasure, and how will it help with the changes that may continue to occur in the future?" Someone else shook his head and said: "If the theory of the intersection of the two worlds is not false, these changes that will continue in the present world will not matter. It was just based on the unified rhetoric of the government and dealt with it casually."
"It's said that there has been a change, so naturally we have to use extraordinary means to deal with it." Someone said relatively optimistically: "Hasn't the imperial court successively set up various branches of the Rikyōin and Qingzhengsi, in order to prescribe the right medicine? What's next? , as long as it further strengthens and expands its duties."
"That's right!" Someone else immediately agreed: "We, the Great Tang Dynasty, have millions of soldiers in the world. However, in the long period of peace, we will inevitably fall into the disadvantages of ease and desolation, and we should rectify it properly. I've been working hard. Isn't this an opportunity to make good things happen and eliminate bad things?"
"What's more, the imperial court holds the highest righteousness in the world, governs hundreds of millions of people, and governs hundreds of thousands of officials and generals." Then he added: "As long as you can let go and do something powerful, even those who are reckless in the wild There are so many strange people and strangers, how many people can resist embracing them?"
"After all, isn't this person who is suspected to be the awakening of the ancient ancestors also being used by the imperial court and working hard now? Even if it is true that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth continues to recover, as long as the imperial court can always take the lead and respond to the general trend appropriately; Even if there is some rebellion that takes advantage of the situation, it will not be a problem."
"What the elder said is true." Someone immediately agreed: "At this moment, the court must not only set a corresponding example and show them generous treatment, so as to attract and recruit strangers with unique skills from the public, but also We must also speed up the establishment of rules and regulations to establish rules for how this generation behaves.”
"Masters, in fact, there are already ready-made regulations and laws." However, Liu Zhan, the Prime Minister, suddenly said: "It is the "Li Xing Code" established for Li Xing Yuan; it was just a draft created by the previous department. There are many people involved, and there are many violations and transgressions, which lead to many troubles."
"So, where is the Night Walker God?" However, the next moment someone suddenly said this sentence: The people in the court who were still whispering among themselves suddenly fell silent. But some people thought of the stars falling like rain that night, and others thought of the tragic scene where corpses were strewn all over the field during the inspection.
Not long after, Shangshu's right servant She Nan Huaigong returned to Taiwan Province; he immediately summoned several of his close subordinates and said: "Some decisions have been made in the political affairs hall. Regarding the investigation of the clan, other relevant people, etc. After all, let’s take a break for the time being, and focus on what’s happening at the moment.”
"My husbands also need the cooperation of the Holy Father to fully deal with possible situations that may occur in the future. Therefore, you all withdraw your people and seal the existing case files! At least, it is not appropriate for there to be any further turmoil between the internal and external parties at the moment. Already; there is still work to do next..."
The next day, in the Privy Council, which is also known as the "East Hall and the West Hall" together with the Political Hall; Zhang Wusheng, one of the lay officers of the Xijing branch who was born as a descendant of King Wu, was also summoned to the adjacent inner training school grounds, an inconspicuous place. Among the side courtyards. Formal hearing and presentation from the Privy Council.
And inside and outside this side courtyard, it has been closely monitored by the teaching army directly under the Privy Council, with three levels inside and three levels outside. In addition to several deputy privy envoys and governors on duty in Beijing, there were also the Grand Counselor from the General Counselor's Office, as well as his left and right counselors, deputy counselors, etc.;
"Zhang Wusheng, the captain of the Eighth Regiment of General Lingwei Zhonglang of Youjinwu Guards, was ordered by the Supervisor to perform martial arts for you noble officials. Please give me more corrections." After Zhang Wusheng clenched his fist and bowed in salute, he picked up the weapon and racked it. Standard horizontal knife. Twisting the sheathed hands, it suddenly cracked and revealed a twisting blade.
Then, he picked up a dagger, held the sharp blade between his fingers, and visibly bent it inward, rolling it several times until the sharp blade broke with an unbearable crisp sound. However, Zhang Wusheng's face remained calm and his heart did not beat. He just let out a slight breath and picked up another broad-bladed spear.
Then, he confidently grasped the leaf-shaped broad blade; with a frown and a little more force, the sharp edge of the bright green steel blade had already been pinched into a palm-shaped curling gap; However, Zhang Wusheng's palm showed no damage except for a few indentations.
Then, he walked up to the wooden man target wearing a new pair of Mingguang armor. In an instant, his body was as straight as a gun, and his bent legs and punches hit the armor-piercing man target in a series of strikes. Hearing only the whirring fist seal breaking through the air, and the dull crackling sound of being hit, the wooden target suddenly shattered.
The next moment, someone stepped forward to pick up and piece together the fragmented human-shaped wooden target, and then transferred it to the eaves for others to inspect. But some people couldn't help but sigh lowly; because the chest and abdomen of the human-shaped wooden target that had been hit had become loose and brittle into strands in many places.
As for the Mingguang Armor, which seemed to be well-made, the densely woven armor surface was also full of pits, dents and deformations; especially the stainless steel mirror guard located at the center of the armor was covered with superimposed dented fist prints and fine spider webs. crack. It's like it has no protective effect at all.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Wusheng used his skills like a hammer fist, and successively attacked the thirteen types of equipment displayed and displayed, such as light armor, iron scale armor, mountain pattern armor, two-level armor, black hammer armor, chain mail, etc. After that, a slight sweat appeared on my forehead. However, these armors also failed to protect the human target.
Either the armor pieces collapsed and the iron rings flew around, or large areas were broken, dented, and brittle. Even the seemingly toughest cloth back armor had several holes in the densely woven twill cloth that was strong enough to block arrows, not to mention the wooden human target.
Then, Zhang Wusheng was led to the case on the other side. I saw him picking up an iron-arm bow and lightly stretching it to the limit. Suddenly it broke with a bang. He then picked up another standard crossbow and stretched it to the limit without even using his feet. Tight as a circle.
Then, with his sharp eyes and quick hands, he quickly plucked the string and loaded the arrows. The open crossbow seemed to burst into bloom, shooting out a row of short arrows with almost no flaw; the densely packed arrows hit the concentric target fifty steps away. However, a crisp sound was heard the next moment, and the crossbow arm was broken in the middle.
However, Zhang Wusheng picked up another pair of crossbows with more intent, which was specially designed for cavalry to use shorter horned crossbows. He flicked it with one hand as if riding a horse to control the territory, and fired it with one hand; but it also hit the target thirty steps away. , the human-shaped swimming target on the pulley is full of energy and roars.
Until Liang Hulu's arrows were completely empty, and the crossbow string of the small horned crossbow had become loose and deformed due to short-term and intense use. At this time, someone nearby suddenly threw a tube of flying targets and a bundle of throwing spears to Zhang Wusheng. In a blink of an eye, Zhang Wusheng had quick eyesight and quick hands, and threw them through the target and wall on the opposite side.
Then, as if to embarrass him, there were armed sergeants beside him, who were ordered to throw out a spear, a rifle, a hook gun, a pair of iron whips, a pair of axes... and even It was a long-handled Mo Dao that was as tall as a man; when it fell into his hand, it seemed to have life and vitality.
The various equipment and combat skills in the army, which were originally simple and superficial, were swung and whistling in the air like flowing clouds and flowing water under the burst of strength and speed, exerting the powerful power of making metal and cracking rocks; the armored wooden man as the target, Thick wooden pillars and even stone locks were smashed and shattered.
"What a skill! What a skill!" Seeing this scene, Qiu Wenxuan, the secretariat of the Privy Council (Gyeonggi Province), couldn't help but stand up, clasped his hands and praised loudly: "Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhang Langjun, only after entering the inner court It won’t be long before we have such an encounter and opportunity, I wonder?”
"To be honest, Shangguan, this is not the full strength of a certain family." However, Zhang Wusheng smiled modestly and said: "Next, a certain family will demonstrate to you Shangguan, how about physical enhancement?" The next moment, After receiving the signal, more than ten armored soldiers immediately poured into the field with weapons.
