Mirror of the Sky

Chapter 42: worldly prestige

In the Middle Ages, the distinction between the noble and the lowly in the human race was like a moat.

Everyone thinks that the nobles use their orders to protect the people in wartime, and when they are free, their power is overwhelming, and their children, grandchildren, and generations shepherd the common people from generation to generation.

The humble work hard and support the noble, and they rarely have a moment of leisure in their lives. It is just like the rivers, lakes and seas, where all waters flow downwards as it should be.

At this moment, although the distinction between the noble and the cheap is no longer as clear-cut as it was in ancient times, and it is almost insurmountable, it is still difficult for ordinary people to cross that boundary.

If Sen Xuanji was clamoring for other people to follow the so-called last edict of Emperor Yan and Huang to establish a city, even if it was himself, some of the released slaves would still be dissatisfied.

After all, the frontier army of Quanguo and his family members, who had been ruled by Sen Xuanji, doctor Gu Yu, only accounted for 70-80% of the slaves. The actual burning of wasteland and cultivating fields does not mean that they are willing to set the status of superiority and inferiority, and their ancestors will live forever under the people.

But Zhang Huansheng was different.

Fools worship power rather than propriety. Those people who don’t read much may have the courage to rebel against a wise old man, but they never dare to fight against a great supernatural power who has the ability to fly and call the wind and call the rain. Just stretch out your fingers. The strong man who crushed himself to death said nothing.

What's more, this strongman still has the grace of salvation and the virtue of life for them. In the future, he may have to be protected by him on this isolated island, so it is easier to make him succumb.

Therefore, after Sen Xuanji made a commotion, the more than 3,000 released slaves all knelt down and paid homage without a word of objection.

In this way, Zhang Huansheng, who was still a commoner in the morning, became a subordinate doctor in charge of 1,260 households and 3,214 people by the will of Emperor Yan and Huang before noon.

And the city he was in charge of, took his surname as his name and called it 'Zhang', and the place in power was called 'the government hall' according to the ancient system. Small but complete.

The head of this political hall is naturally Zhang Huansheng, who is a subordinate doctor, but Zhang Huansheng only thinks about cultivation, so he patiently manages these mundane political affairs, so he immediately ordered Sen Xuanji to be a fake doctor and take charge of all government affairs.

However, since he has become a gentleman of herdsmen, he is not completely a hands-off shopkeeper.

Relying on the convenience of being able to display the supernatural powers of the earth in the land occupied by the Yuanshen, Zhang also built a city wall with a radius of two miles and a height of three feet, and built a canal in the fields outside the city. , and then reclaimed tens of thousands of acres of new fields, and then he returned to the pool behind Foshan and continued to practice.

The people of Limin in the land of Yan and Yellow are the most loyal and honest.

Many people have lived in one city or city all their lives, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, and their ancestors have lived and prospered within a radius of three or four miles.

What's more, being on a desert island, people's hearts are even more hesitant, and they don't dare to walk around easily, so Zhang Huansheng did not find anyone disturbing him after ten days of ascetic cultivation.

This evening, he sat cross-legged under the setting sun and finished a round of "Dragon Elephant Root Sutra", and he played with Hanuman and practiced the Eight Nine Mysteries for a while. some hard calluses.

Afterwards, the bones in Zhang Huansheng's body sounded like firecrackers roaring in unison for a while. The muscles and veins in his body shrank, stretched again, and when he moved again, the sound of the air rushing with his hands and feet collided loudly.

Although he hadn't experienced a similar abnormality for a few years, the feeling was still vivid in his mind. He knew that he should have awakened some kind of new innate supernatural power. He hurriedly and happily tried endlessly for a while. , The skin is ten times tougher than before, and the strength is much greater. What is even more mysterious is that stomping hard can cause the earth to sway unceasingly.

"The supernatural powers awakened in the past were all the talents of the divine dragon, who was in control of the water and the wind. Now that the cultivation of the physical body has broken through and consolidated, all the supernatural powers of the treasure elephant have been awakened, and it is three at a time, which is really rewarding." Realizing his rich income, Zhang Huansheng muttered to himself with a smile.

Hanuman, who was beside him, saw the amusing hands and danced, and he looked overjoyed.

One person and one monkey were happy for a while by the pool in the wild. Zhang Huansheng suddenly felt tired for a while. Knowing that it was because his consciousness was consuming too much power, he picked up the monkey with a smile and walked towards Foshan.

After a cup of tea, he came under the collapsed giant Buddha, and found that the situation in front of him was a little different from the days before.

The system is established, the order is formed, and there is a city to live in. The people here are gradually stabilized, and there is a sense of belonging. In addition, the place where everyone lives is an island basin. Except for the huge mountain gap dozens of miles away, the sea. No matter how big the storm is, there is no way to intrude, and although there will be a light rain from time to time, it is harmless.

In addition, with tens of thousands of acres of fertile fields with half a foot of green crops as protection, filling the stomach in the future is no longer a problem. I have lived on the island for nearly a month, and I have not encountered any beasts and monsters. It can be said that There's hardly anything to criticize about the day, except that it's a bit hotter.

So a smile naturally appeared on people's faces, and the whole city unconsciously had a thriving vigor.

Zhang Huansheng's original intention was to go to the city to eat some cooked food, take a hot bath, and have a good sleep on the bed. After recovering his spirit, he went back to the mountains to continue his cultivation.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the city, the whole road seemed to be suddenly quiet.

All the men, women and children who were laughing and chatting flashed to the side of the road, and knelt on the ground without daring to lift their heads.

In the past, even when he was treated as immortal Buddha by those who had been released from slaves, Zhang Huansheng had never received such courtesy, so he couldn't help being stunned.

And when he was stunned, a newly-made chariot pulled by four wrestlers approached from a distance with a 'dengdengdeng...'.

After arriving in front of Zhang Huansheng, the six soldiers who accompanied the chariot, together with the warriors who pulled the chariot, knelt down and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, go back to the city, the fake doctor and the adults of the various departments are already in the political hall. Waiting for an appointment, please board the carriage."

Zhang Huansheng jumped into the carriage with a little daze, the curtain was lowered, and then someone shouted outside, "Your Majesty, get up and drive, everyone can kneel and see you off."

Out of curiosity, he lifted a little curtain to take a peek at it, and only dared to stand up after seeing the common people all over the street slamming three times on the frame he made.

The wooden wheels made a rumbling sound, and walking on the stone road, Zhang Huansheng thought silently in surprise: "I am a half-truth, half-truth, a doctor under the herdsmen of 3,000, so I have such power among the common people, and the princes and the emperor have such power. When how!

This person who is sovereign and called a loner is indeed different from the bureaucracy. Yinhai County has 100,000 households and hundreds of thousands of people. However, the county governor and the garrison general go on a tour together, which means that the pomp is bigger, and it is not too big. See the scene of Wanmin kneeling to welcome, kneeling to send.

It's even more powerful than me..." Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little smug in his heart, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, just after a few 'hehe', he suddenly realized: "Zhang Huansheng, you want to achieve Zhengguo. , How can a monk with great freedom and great supernatural power suddenly care about the prestige of the mortal world!
