Chapter 11 Blood Pledge
(Today's update of 12,000 words, ask for tickets first, please accept, please pay attention, please give me strength, friends!)
The pattern of the whole world is like a fog, and now it is only lifted a corner of the veil in front of Zhong Li's eyes.
Wu Xiaofu is still the main speaker of Xiaoshu, and it took nearly two hours for the other four people to interpolate, finally to finally understand the basic pattern of the empire that Zhong Li was most concerned about.
Because of his short knowledge, the young Wu Xiaofu could only give the boss a brief introduction to some of the situation in the county they were familiar with. In Zhong Li's eyes, what he heard was only the brief situation of the county, the smallest pattern of the current empire, but he clenched his fists and his heart was about to breathe fire. Come on.
The Qingxi Empire, where they are now, is the largest and most powerful empire in the Qingxi divine world.
The empire has seven counties and 26 states. Zhong Li is located in Lefos, the smallest of Lichuan County. Niuhua Town is only one of the 17 towns in Lefos, located in the southernmost part of Lefos.
Lichuan County is adjacent to Mabian in the east, Ebian in the west, and Meishan in the north. It is the only county in the Qingxi Empire that borders multiple counties. Lefozhou is only the southernmost state in the three prefectures of Lichuan County.
Lichuan County has a unique terrain, and the whole county is within a basin, so Lichuan is also known as Bonchuan.
Lefos is not big, ranking at the bottom of the three states of Lichuan.
Although Lefoshu is located at the southernmost end of Penchuan, there are strange mountains and dangerous cliffs in the state boundary, and rich in products, especially famous for the most important material, refined weapons, refined iron ore, so Lefoshu is also known as "Iron State".
Facing Lefuzhou in the south, it is one of the most famous ravaging forests, one of the ten fierce places on the mainland.
This forest ranks seventh in the divine world. The vast and endless black mountains are hidden in strange trees. The scenery is unique and beautiful. Anyone who sees it at first glance will not think that this is the seventh fierce land in the world, as horrible as the death desert.
This forest crosses the boundaries of the three counties of the empire, starting from Lefozhou in Lichuan to the end of the northern part of Yongxing in Yongfu County.
Lichuan County is like a three-indifferent zone sandwiched between several counties, a very sad prince's territory.
He is Flamenco, the youngest brother of today's king. Deng Shuanglong, the only of the seven princes of the empire, is equivalent to an exiled and useless prince.
You know, in the Qingxi Empire, every big family is a strong martial arts family or a financial rich family. Behind each big family is either the long-standing glory of a samurai family or a strong financial power.
However, of course, the largest family, the flamenco family represented by the royal family, has huge financial resources and iron-blooded troops sweeping all directions. The martial arts master standing at the peak of the martial arts also comes from it. I heard that today's majesty is also approaching the realm of golden warrior's great perfection.
Not to mention, it is said that there are still several ancestors of the Flamengo family who have long been cultivated into Yuanying. Although they are not in the ordinary, once they hear that the family has something important, even if it is inconvenient to come in person, they will casually send one or two golden elixirs under their door. Even tens of well-equipped armored troops, they can only There is a part of ashes and smoke. However, the Protoss have long stipulated that immortals are not allowed to participate in wars in the divine world. Otherwise, the Qingxi Empire would have already put the territory of the whole divine world into its pocket.
Therefore, the Qingxi Empire has been under the control of the Flamenco family for more than a thousand years. Since the first cultivation of the flamenco family to the founding of the ancestors of Wu Zun, Flamenco is now in the reign. Deng Tiexin is already the thirty-second king of this family in the empire.
The scenery of every powerful rich family is under the glorious banner of their ancestors. I don't know how many other family interests have been sacrificed, how many flesh and bones they have stepped on, and countless descendants of their clan have been continuously inherited, carried forward, innovated and plundered.
As the prince of the flamenco family, he should practice the family's most powerful martial arts skills, add strength to the family's combat effectiveness list, and become a famous brand to enter the family hall.
Unfortunately, there has been only the exception of Deng Shuanglong's shame for thousands of years.
Because Deng Shuanglong is a natural five-yin and can't even practice the most basic martial arts skills. Therefore, after the ten golden martial saints and a martial master of the royal family tried their best to transform it, the prince wrote to His Majesty himself, asking for Lichuan County as his fief, far away from the national capital and his family. All the disturbances related to the interests of the royal power came to this remote county as a noble prince to become the local emperor.
Of course, the eight princes were accompanied by nineteen wives, seven princes, four princesses and their husband's family.
It seems that the fact that the famous brand could not enter the shrine had little impact on him, because on the first day of entering the territory, the prince forcibly forced the women of two medium-sized families into his house.
I can't see the contempt and indifference of the family, and I can't hear the endless quarrels of the elders in the Senate. Deng Shuanglong has always felt that this decision is extremely wise and magical. His eyes are clear, and his ears are pure and comfortable. He can do whatever he wants in his territory and will no longer look at the faces of those old guys.
Deng Shuanglong is cruel and murderous and capricious, which may have something to do with his distorted psychology.
His territory consists of three states. In addition to Lefo County, there are also Hongya Prefecture near the northwest and Zigong Prefecture in the southeast.
The governors of these three states usually fight and do not interact with each other, just like a life-and-death enemy, but they are loyal to his lord. As long as Deng Shuanglong's words, these three people can even give up their lives.
These three governors actually represent the three largest family forces in Lichuan.
Edwards, Governor of Florida. Chen Jun, Governor of Hongya State, Kesaifu. Ding Xiong, Silvester, governor of Zigong. Yang Sen.
The three governors represent the three largest senior family forces in Lichuan. The three families desperately arrange their own business and power in 17 towns in the county. Although there are disputes from time to time, they can reach a certain tacit understanding after the interests are balanced. After the Eight Prince Deng Shuanglong led Lichuan County, he carried out the development of mineral deposits in Lefo, Hongya and Zigong, and the refined iron mine developed to more than 100, and these mines, the smart county guard handed them over to the families represented by the governors of the three states.
Most of the people working in these mines are death row prisoners, slaves and servants sent by some families, and those extremely dangerous working environments are generally given to cheap prisoners of war bought from the human flesh market without exception. The purchase price of a prisoner of war is usually between one to five silver coins, but It is called super cheap labor. There will be a very hot human flesh trading market in every town in the empire. It is estimated that the hottest is Lichuan County. The number of prisoners of war engaged in high-risk jobs in the mine will be surprisingly reduced every day.
According to incomplete statistics, the number of deaths in various mines in Lichuan has exceeded 500,000 in the past decade.
These mines are produced day and night, and a large number of gold coins flowed into the pockets of those nobles and families like rivers. Of course, the largest and deepest pockets are the county guard, His Royal Highness Prince Deng Shuanglong.
I have to say that although His Royal Highness, who is cruel and lustful, has lost the qualification of the Guang family, he does not lose his smart head and treat the three families who desperately make money for themselves equally. He has never favored the other and plays a great balance. None of the three families wanted to see any one get bigger alone. In this way, they involved and suppressed each other, which saved the prince countless troubles.
To the pleasure of the prince, his seven princes are lucky not to inherit his inheritance. Although the seven princes are not extremely excellent, they are all superior qualifications. The three largest were recruited into the largest "Weilong Academy" in the empire. The most elite warriors in the empire basically came from this school. Coupled with the particularity of the royal family, His Royal Highness even believed that his three sons had the possibility of becoming golden warriors.
Flamenco, the boss of the three. Deng Minghui, 27 years old, broke through the great perfection of the three-level warriors last month and joined the ranks of the senior warriors; the second flamenco. Deng Mingliang, 26 years old, two-star intermediate warrior; third flamenco. Deng Minghai, 25 years old, is a middle-level warrior.
The three brothers from the most humiliating eight princes almost washed away the title of "the first disgrace of the royal family" on their father's head and won the reputation of "Li Chuan Sanjie" in the famous school of Weilong, which made Sanjie's father happily marry three women in one breath.
Of course, the other princes of Prince County have not grown up much. They have made mediocre achievements in Lichuan College, but they are famous. In addition, the sons of three other governors, they are called "Lichuan Seven Rats" by the students of the college. They have done all the bad things, and they are full of roosters and thieves, male and female prostitutes.
With their special status, seven people are rampant in Lichuan, bullying men and women, and doing heinous things.
It is said that a small family in Mabian County came to Hongya Prefecture to open a restaurant, and the business was very hot, which aroused the dissatisfaction of other colleagues. So he encouraged the seven rats to often go to make trouble and find faults.
Later, the family hired five intermediate warriors from their hometown, which was like stabbed into a hornet's nest.
The five invited masters were unloaded eight pieces by the master of the county guard brought by the seven rats, and the corpse restaurant lasted for a week, and only 145 people from the family who were preparing to evacuate Lichuan escaped from a little girl.
Thirty-nine old and weak people were smashed by knives, and the surviving men were sent to the well-managed mine to do hard work. The more beautiful women were all sold to brothels in the three prefectures after being ruined by the seven rats. The lack of beauty was sent to major mines to be comfort women.
This is the "One Four Five Tragedy" widely circulated about the evil of seven rats in Lichuan.
Many small families and small forces with various purposes have colluded with the seven rats, and the situation in the three states has secretly become more chaotic. In a blink of an eye, their families will be destroyed and the families will be destroyed.
In Lichuan, there has always been a saying that has been quietly spread like this: Lichuan has dragons like poisonous snakes, and the three-state jackals Aixi. But there are seven mice in the world, and the immortals are also peeling when they pass by.
Longbao scratched his fat face shyly and jokingly said, " boss, despite the past, we were called Niuhua Five Tigers. People are afraid that we are like snakes and scorpions, but to be honest, we have never killed people, such as those things done by seven mice. Now when I think about it, I feel that the vest is sweating. What we have done Some bad things are enough to be called annoying mosquitoes and flies! Thank you for letting us get lost.
Other people are now the same as Longbao. After being transformed into a single star, in addition to physical changes, the biggest change should be that their minds and minds are far better than before, although what has been instilled since childhood is the idea of loyalty to the royal family and theology, especially the noble and aristocracy. No matter what you do, no one dares to blame, because consciously no one wants to go*. However, Longbao's words clearly contain dissatisfaction with the seven rats, and so did several others. This should be the first time in their lives that they dared to question the authority of the royal family for the first time.
Zhong Li was provoked full of anger by the introduction of Wu Xiaofu. This is the royal society ruled by the privileged class. People living at the bottom of the society are simply inferior. The three chapters of the covenant that had not been announced in their hearts were finally formed at this moment, and Zhong Li slowly calmed his emotions.
A feudal royal society that has been around for thousands of years is also backed by countless powerful samurai families and unfathomable immortal cultivation schools. By yourself, you can't even stir up a wave in this dark deep sea. If you want to flatten everything on this decadent sea, it is necessary to move mountains and fill the sea. , he must accumulate enough strength!
Only build a super giant ship, ride the wind and waves, chop the waves, and move forward bravely in this dark and rotten deep sea.
As long as you are willing to do something with your heart and persistence, you will get something. Remember that Bie Xu once said that Zhong Li was deeply convinced.
After the old Besson pulled Joanne into the house, Zhong Li asked all the five little blessings to sit around the stone table and raised their hands to make a sound insulation ban. The five teenagers immediately stopped making noise and knew that the boss must have something important to announce.
Zhong Li's face is very calm, and although he is also a little nervous and restless, his three-day holographic game life has already refined him very capable and steady.
"The five of you are no longer ordinary people now, but since you have chosen to recognize me as the boss, I also regard you as brothers. Before I say the following words, it is still too late for anyone to repent and leave? I will use means to make people unable to see your bones, but I will make you forget what happened before. Everything. You all have to think about it carefully."
The five people were shocked. Billy King took an old man's face and asked sadly, " boss, our five brothers have sincerely kowtowed to you. Don't you believe us?"
"Yes, boss, without you, we will achieve nothing in our life. We will do a grand thing with you. Please believe us!" It is Xiaoshu's sincere way.
Tu Qiang and the little wolf were silent. The two looked at each other and suddenly turned their heads and said to Zhong Li in unison, " boss, please stretch out your hand!"
Zhong Li looked at the two people with blushing and excitement, but still stretched out his right hand and put it on the table.
At this time, the two Xiaoqiang suddenly took out a knife from their bodies and put them on their palms and stroked hard. Suddenly, blood overflowed.
Before Zhong Li could react, the little Qiang's knife-wielded hand had passed Zhong Li's right hand and shouted, "Forgive me, boss, please forgive me a drop of blood!"
