Chapter 221 Longmen Mountain

Two figures overlap, one virtual and one real, and there is no difference between true and false. Then, the virtual shadow began to shrink slowly, and then gradually became clear. When the virtual shadow was only half the size of the real shadow, it was already half clear, and then continued to shrink to about one-third of the real shadow, no longer change, and stopped. At this time, the virtual shadow, except for looking a little trance, is already as clear as the real shadow, and emits a dazzling golden light.

Qu Shan suddenly opened his eyes, and the two gods flashed away.

This is the result of the past few years after he reached the realm of mony.

The shadow of the soul that originally coincided with the body, after his continuous practice, became more and more condensed, and gradually slowly shrank from the same size as the body. Until this time, it was only one-third of the body.

Qu Shan has never been exposed to the cultivation method of the realm of monis. He doesn't know whether this practice is correct. However, he can feel that with the compression of the soul, his perception ability is getting stronger and stronger, from the initial 1,000 feet to 2,000 feet, 5,000 feet...

Nowadays, Qu Shan feels his surroundings with his heart and can monitor everything within ten thousand feet around him.

He is in a tent and can completely cover the whole caravan under his spiritual power. This ability is called divine consciousness after reaching the realm of monism.

The ability is expanding, and the Qu Dan is relieved. At least, the direction is right, but I can't find a way to practice. Just take more detours.

With a smile, he looked at Pei Cainan, who was still immersed in cultivation, and got up and walked out of the tent.

In the distance, the bonfire is burning.

The guards of the caravan stayed up all night, watching everything around them with vigilance.

At this time, the caravan has arrived near the border between the snow clan and Suiguo. In another day or two, it will be able to enter Suiguo.

Along the way, the caravan caught people from Sui Guo and asked about the situation of the war, and finally came to a conclusion that Sui Guo was really in chaos, and the rebellion was quite serious.

The caravan went up to Qi Lie and down to the guy, and their faces were covered with layers of clouds.

Qu Dan walked to the nearest bonfire and chose a vacant seat to sit down. Qi Lie, General Manager Sun and others were among them.

Crackling——

The firewood burst out of a spark, and the flashing fire reflected the faces of the people around him.

"The chaos at the border is far beyond hearing! The caravan has stayed here for five days. In the past few days, tens of thousands of refugees have escaped from the country. This riot is more serious than we thought..." General Manager Sun said.

"It's not a way to stay here all the time. You have to find a way to go back to China!" Qi Lie waved his hand and said, "Has the escort sent out to explore the news come back?"

"The last batch hasn't come back yet, but it will be back tomorrow at the latest, and we will get specific information at that time." General Manager Sun replied.

"Very good, let's wait one more night. In any case, we will leave tomorrow. Our caravan's goal is too big. If we stay here for too long, it is easy to attract attention. At that time, if we are besieged by a riot or robbers, there will be no good end..."

Several people nodded heavily and dispersed after a while.

Qi Lie sat still, nodded to Qu Dan with a smile, threw a wine pot, and said, "Take a sip!"

After taking the song, I looked up to the sky and took a sip. The strong smell of wine slid down my throat, followed by a hot burning feeling, which made my whole body hot.

"Good wine!" Qu Dan gave a thumbs-up and threw it back.

"It's a good wine. I have treasured old wine for many years, and ordinary people can't drink it," Qi Lie nodded and looked at the East. "However, it's not easy to walk this way. If I encounter rebels, maybe I will have no chance to drink the good wine buried in my cellar at home."

Qu Dan's heart moved: "Boss Qi, what's going on with this riot in the country? Is the people uprising?"

"People's uprising? Almost..." Qi Lie poured another sip of wine. "In fact, we follow the country, and the tax is extremely heavy. Ordinary people, if they are farming, they have to pay 70% of the harvest to the government every year; if they are merchants, they have to pay 50% of the trade tax to the government. Year after year, the accumulation, the life of the people is extremely hard, such as Longmen Mountain. Only a large faction has the privilege of tax exemption... Even our Jiqing Commercial Bank must pay taxes to the government. Like our businessman, a small part of the goods are prepared for the government. Therefore, the people's uprising is also...

"Listen to Boss Qi, he seems to be familiar with this riot?"

Qi Lie smiled and said, "It's very familiar. In the past hundred years, there have been three civil strifes in Suiguo. Every 30 years or so, many people are used to it..."

At the time of the tyrannical bear clan, he always thought that the East was a rich and beautiful place, but now it seems that it is a bloody land of war, much worse than the wild forest of the snow clan.

"However, these civil strife have been suppressed very quickly every time! In fact, the government that follows the country knows that this kind of strict tax is easy to cause civil unrest, but it still has to do so.

"Oh, why is that?" Qu Dan asked curiously.

"Because of the existence of Longmen Mountain!" Qi Lie's eyes sparkled with light, as if he looked up and respected. "We worship the Huomen. Although we are called the second largest faction in Suiguo, the strength of the sect is only one-tenth of that of Longmen Mountain. As the master of this sect, it is only equivalent to an elder in Longmen Mountain at most... This Suiguo is basically the country of Longmen Mountain!"

Qu Dan Huo Ran is moved. He is a country, and he is actually a sect!

"The origin of Longmen Mountain can be traced back to ten thousand years ago. Since the creation of the faction, he has been a super faction that is above the supremacy of the country. 80% of the princes, ministers and generals of Suiguo come from Longmen Mountain. Even today's emperor is also a generation of masters of Longmen Mountain, the whole Suiguo is under the will of Longmen Mountain. Running..."

Is that okay?

It was the first time to hear that this kind of sect is above the country. He scratched his head: "But even so, the people in Longmen Mountain are not fools. Why do they levy such a heavy tax?"

Because of strength! Longmen Mountain is only the largest faction in Suiguo. In addition to Suiguo, there are more sects. These sects are more powerful than Longmen Mountain! The cultivation in the East is slightly different from that of the Xue people. Here, cultivation requires extremely large resources, and resources are obtained from the land, which leads to the frequent robbery of land between sects, and the gate sects control a country, using the country to establish an army, and carry out war plunder..." /P>

si——

Qu Shan couldn't help taking a cold breath. Where is this East...

"Sect cultivation, sect war, national war... In order to support the huge consumption, it will naturally lead to heavy taxes on the people, and the outbreak of civil strife is inevitable..."

Qu Shan nodded in a daze, and he was a little impressed.

"However, little brother, you don't have to worry too much," Qi Lie got up and patted Qu Shan on the shoulder. "This civil strife, at least one year or more, will be suppressed in three or five years... As soon as the master of Longmen Mountain comes out, no matter who rises up in trouble, he will not escape death!"

Er...

The song list is completely speechless.
