0001 There is a game on the cloud, there is misery in the world
The sky is blue and clear as water, and the clouds are swaying like boating in the sea. Sails set sail with the breeze.
There is a unique scenery above the clouds. Two old men, one in black and the other in white. The two use clouds as stools, the sky as chess boards, and the void cracks as chess scores.
The Chu River and Han Realm in the middle of the chessboard is like an insurmountable abyss. It is located between the two old men in black and white.
The old man in black grabbed it casually, and in the endless outlook of the sky, a planet was held in his hand. He held the palm lightly, and the three-dimensional ball turned into a flat chess piece. The creatures on the planet turned into blood mist under this grasp, infecting the scarlet red.
The old man in black smiled; "Red first, black, then, I'll do this game first."
The old man in white shouted angrily: "Enough"
The big hand poked out at the same time, and saw that there were living planets or continents outside the sky deviating from their moving trajectory. When they were stable, they no longer knew where they were.
Seeing this, the old man in black sneered: "Haha, why bother with ants? Have you ever seen where you have left the Tao?"
"What's more, it's a life star of my clan. Do you have to ask you if you want to deal with it?"
"The immortal guides the way, and go first."
The red son settled and calmed down and the void suddenly whineed. The bloody drizzle slowly emerged, as if the heaven and earth were whining.
The old man in white said contemptuously: "It's not a fairy if he is half a step away. He just doesn't have enough confidence to bluff. You walk your non-immortal path, and I walk my trapped dragon path. The elephant rises!"
The black piece fell down the road and roared, and the Hong Zhongda Lu spread melodiously. The two of them played chess more terrifying than a match between thousands of troops. If they were not careful, they would hurt the road and themselves. It was much more dangerous than physical fights.
There were also pictures of the two of them, and all the worlds were visible.
The green mountains are surrounded by bright streams. The sun is burning and the willow catkins are growing and the birds are flying. The town is not beautiful and quiet, but the laughter and joy of children are rippling in the tranquility.
Qingyang Town is located in a remote town in Shushui Country. It was originally small. Eight years ago, a large number of outsiders suddenly flooded into the town. The population of the town suddenly increased. The small town with a small area could be compared with the county town.
The court had no choice but to increase taxes. It was an exception to establish a county government in Qingyang Town, and the county magistrate Ge Shuren gave up everything.
In fact, the imperial court has a look at it, on the one hand, for tax revenue, and on the other hand, to find out where these surges of population come from? What is the purpose?
The reason for the population surge was found. Eight years ago, the town suddenly rose. This so-called dragon energy was condensed by spiritual energy, hovering over the town like a big dragon. It is impossible to see ordinary people, and all the magic cultivators of warriors can be noticed. The magic cultivators who are thousands of miles away can also be noticed. Therefore, the town alarmed half of the dragon trapped continent.
The sudden vision caused suspicion of warriors and cultivators to go to the town to investigate, which was also the reason for the surge in population.
After testing, no one knew why the dragon energy rose, and no warrior or divine cultivator could capture the dragon energy and use it.
On the contrary, the children in the town benefited a lot and invisibly changed the physical constitution of these children during their growth, either having an amazing body or being suitable for spiritual cultivation.
This will attract the attention of warriors and gods. If you can choose a good seedling to inherit the mantle, you will be able to achieve the luck of the sect if you grow up.
At this point, all major sects have lived in small towns and selected suitable seedlings to cultivate and observe. The first to enter Qingyang Town were the four major colleges in the Qianlong Continent that most liked to recruit outstanding children.
The four major academies have a transcendent status and stand above the dynasty families. Ordinary sects dare not provoke them. The academies advocate peace, so the four major academies have kept the peace in the town and will not be cholera by the storm cultivators and warriors who flock to them.
Although Qingyang Town has a surge in population, it is still simple in its folk customs. There are four major colleges in charge, and the daily life has not been broken.
Qingyang County Government was established for eight years and there were very few cases handled in a year. The county government government went from top to bottom from county magistrate to yamen runners. The so-called office was actually doing nothing, sleeping and playing cards.
Mr. Ge's performance has not improved much in the past eight years, and his body is growing day by day. If he throws it into a pigpen, it will be thicker than the two pig bundles together.
Today, this county government is rarely lively and is occupied by more than a dozen children. It seems that the fight is not enough. He is in court and is still rolling up his arms and sleeves. After the master in the official uniform arrives, he has been quiet for a moment.
Ordinary people get up in the morning, but they get up in the morning and complain about the world and people don’t like anyone else. This Lord Ge is very angry when he sleeps. No matter morning or evening, he will have a bad temper for half an hour.
The same is true today. I feel sleepy when I walk, and my head is like a chicken sucking rice. If I hadn't helped the master next to me, I might have a dream somewhere halfway.
After Lord Ge sat down, he slapped the gavel weakly. Two rows of yamen runners next to him cooperated and shouted softly: "Wei...wu..."
Lord Ge lowered his head and said vaguely: "Let's talk about the fifty boards of each major."
The yamen runners are hesitant. Just kidding, they are all twelve or thirteen years old, and the youngest is just ** years old. They are still disabled even if they are not dead.
The master beside Lord Ge on the high platform raised his hand and signaled to wait for a while.
He bent over and whispered: "Sir Ge, wake up, there are many friends and children below who have a close relationship with you."
Lord Ge didn't open his eyes at all: "Public is public and private is private, and the prince violates the law and commits the same crime as the common people."
The master continued to remind: "There are children from four major families who just gave gifts yesterday. There are two children from the teacher's family and two children from the blacksmith shop."
Lord Ge opened his eyes and looked at the group of teenagers kneeling under the court. He asked loudly: "Who is the plaintiff and who is the defendant, and why are you playing the drum?"
The master whispered: "Everyone said that he was the plaintiff, and everyone said that he was beaten, but in fact he was just a little kid fighting. Just let me drive him away."
Lord Ge shook his head and said, "How can that be done? I won't give you some punishment. I'll run here if I don't have anything to do in the future, and I'll let you sleep well. I'll find a few typical examples to beat you and drive you away."
Lord Ge wondered a lot: "The teacher's two children are the only one in the town. Forget it. If you make you angry, you will go on a strike, no one will teach your children to study. The residents of the town must gather to cause trouble."
"The two children of the blacksmith shop are not good, but the only one is the blacksmith shop. If you get angry, you don't have to make iron when you go on strike. You will soon harvest the farm tools."
"The Qian family sent 10,000 taels last month but could not be beaten. The Sun family sent 8,000 taels this spring, but his children could not be beaten. The Zhao family and the Liu family..."
Lord Ge suddenly shone his eyes and finally found a slightly familiar boy, who seemed to be an orphan in the back mountain.
Lord Ge pointed at the children and said, "What's your name? Don't look at others, right, yes, the child with a black, thin, stupid head and hangs a ragged gourd on his waist came forward to speak."
Xing Zhen pointed to his nose and said, "Sir, are you talking about me?"
"Yes, yes, right, aren't you or who? You are the mastermind of this fight, right?"
The boys behind Xing Zhen immediately stopped doing it and shouted together: "It's not Xing Zhen, it's not Xing Zhen."
These are really excused by the punishment. There is a tall boy who is one head taller than the punishment. A gentle boy is a fair and clean girl, a slightly shorter girl, and a slug that has two long rivers under her nose.
Lord Ge hurriedly said, "Come here, leave Xing Zhen, and push the rest outside the door to await trial."
Apart from Xing Zhen, there are 9 children left here. After being easily pushed out of the court by a group of yamen runners, Xing Zhen was left alone in the court.
Xing Zhen was confused, why did he interrogate himself alone?
Lord Ge suddenly became mighty and serious: "Do you know the crime of Xingzhen?"
The dull boy thought for a moment: "Well... I don't know."
"Xing Zhen, why do you fight?"
"Yeah...I don't know"
Lord Ge said with a slight smile: "Do you know who I am? I don't know if you have to suffer after asking this."
The dull teenager Xing Zhen answered as usual: "Well... I don't know."
After asking questions and not knowing, Lord Ge thought to himself: "I'm not up to the Tao, I'll confess my guilt earlier. I can go to the four major families to exchange for some silver. I can go to private schools and blacksmith shops to blackmail them. I'm such a genius."
In addition, Xing Zhen’s last sentence made Lord Ge lose face. This fat man weighed nearly 400 pounds, he had a heavy body and a heavier temper.
He shouted angrily: "Come here, slap me."
Three burly yamen runners came out, with the words "Zhu" on the front and backs of the official uniforms. They pressed down on the dull boy kneeling on the ground, and one of them slapped his arms in the face.
Mu Ne Xingzhen worked in a blacksmith shop since he was a child and observed the iron texture every day. It has long been extremely detailed. He can see all the expressions of Lord Ge, and even the trembling of the hair on the fat flesh.
Xing Zhen knew that Lord Ge was really angry and wanted to beat him, but for some reason, why he got angry, so where did he make Lord Ge unhappy.
It was obvious that the children of the four major families bullied Qing Yi first, why was he Xing Zhen beat him? After thinking for a long time, I didn't know how to explain it, but the stubborn boy put three words in his mouth: "I don't accept it."
No one responded to the teenager, only the slap in the face.
After crossing the palms with heavy shadows, Xing Zhen saw the master in plain clothes nodding slowly, as if signaling: "Hold on, don't admit your guilt."
The children outside the door, four older ones applauded, and the tall boy and the gentle boy jumped to protest. The little girl was almost the same as the youngest slug, and the snot and tears mixed together.
Lord Ge ignored this and slapped him a few times and had no intention of surrendering. He snorted coldly in his heart: "It's so great. A fatherless orphan dares to disobey my wishes and delay my chance to make money. A little beggar can't deal with you?"
The more I thought about it, the more angry he became, Lord Ge grabbed the token on the table and pointed it under: "I'll beat you hard, if you still don't accept it, I'll serve you."
Lord Ge is consistent in his words and deeds, and the token in his hand is ready to throw it out at any time.
The Master Suyi next to him whispered and reminded: "Stop being angry, Xing Zhen is only thirteen years old this year and cannot withstand such troubles. It would be bad if he caused a life."
Lord Ge didn't care: "Don't worry, I am a good official. A little orphan, even if he is not able to make any troubles."
Master Suyi was speechless, clenched his hands slightly, and his nails were embedded in the flesh and blood and blood were flowing out.
The man in charge of the man was exacerbating his strength, and the dull young man's front teeth collapsed after slapping a few times. At the same time, the dragon energy hovering over Qingyang Town suddenly faded.
Deep in the government office, a woman in the palace dress who was trimming potted plants frowned, put down the scissors in her hand and quickly flew out.
The blue Rushan man and the old man in the chess of Go were playing, and both gave up the black and white pieces in their hands, stood up and walked with a serious expression.
The middle-aged man in black shirt sitting cross-legged with a sword suddenly opened his eyes, and the long sword behind him trembled gently.
The four of them appeared in the court where Lord Ge handled the case at almost no particular order.
The latter quickly stood up to greet him, with a respectful attitude and lowered his eyebrows and bent down.
