Origin Chapter 454: Forerunners
After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, he turned to leave, but Jiang Zheng hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold him, "My son-in-law, the old man has a piece of advice against his ears, I don't know if I should say it or not?"
If Jiang Nan was not standing next to him, Wu Zhongyuan would really not want to listen to Jiang Zheng's nagging. What he doesn't agree with the most is that good medicine is bitter and honest words are hard to listen to. You must know that bitter words and bad ears are very malicious in themselves. If you are a good person, you can persuade them in a gentle way, and there is no need to say harsh words.
But without looking at the monk's face and looking at the Buddha's face, Jiang Nan was there, so he couldn't embarrass Jiang Zheng, so he had to ask casually, "What?"
Jiang Zheng said in a low voice, "You are still young, and you don't know that people's hearts are sinister. As the saying goes, once the emperor and the courtier, the old people left by Wu Ao must not be promoted or appointed. do that."
Wu Zhongyuan didn't know what to call Jiang Zheng, so he simply omitted the title, "I understand the truth, but the bear clan is currently hiring people. If they are driven out, who will help me defend against foreign enemies?"
"What? You still want to drive them away?" Jiang Zheng sighed and shook his head, "As a king, you can't have the kindness of a woman. Since you have acquired a lot of spiritual things, why don't you eliminate all the remaining sins and plant other trusted confidants? ?"
Wu Zhongyuan originally thought that Jiang was teaching him the experience of running the country, but when he heard this, he just came out. It turned out that the old fox was in a circle to inquire about the situation of Jiuye Qinglian. How many lotus seeds are there.
"There are only a few lotus seeds, how can I get enough?" Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, then turned to Jiang Nan and said, "Okay, I have to go, I may live in Yuxiong in the future, if there is anything I will go. If there is a bear looking for me, if I have time, I will also go to Lianshan to see you and Jiang.”
"Be careful." Jiang Nan nodded.
Wu Zhongyuan raised his hand to Jiang Zheng and turned to leave. He once again learned the old fox's tactics. He was only trying to make a profit. careful.
After walking a few feet, he suddenly remembered that there were still three wood spirit pills in his arms, which could avoid hundreds of poisons.
After a brief pondering, Wu Zhongyuan dismissed the idea of giving it to Jiang Nan. Jiang Nan is from the Niu clan and is good at the technique of discordance and yellowness, which is of little use to her. This thing can avoid hundreds of poisons. It can be given to those masters of purple qi who have not obtained lotus seeds in the future, so as not to favor one over the other and make them psychologically unbalanced, but everything has advantages and disadvantages, and rights and obligations are equal. But in the future, if they encounter an opponent who is good at using poison, or if they need to go to a place where poisonous gas lingers to fight, the three subordinates who have obtained the wood spirit pill will bear the brunt and do their part.
Returning to the morning meeting hall, everyone stood up to greet them.
Wu Zhongyuan raised his hand to everyone, then turned to Wu Tong and said, "Wu Tong Dongyuan, I will talk to you one by one next. You are in charge of Daqiu, and you can talk to me in a place where you can talk."
After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, Wu Tong waved his hands in fear, "Your words are serious, all the cities of the Bear Clan are under the control of Da Wu, and everyone like me is only appointed to take care of them, and Da Wu can choose the place of discussion at will."
Wu Zhongyuan has not yet answered, when a black shadow suddenly flew in from outside the hall. At this time, everyone was frightened. Seeing the black shadow suddenly, they all stood up in surprise and were alert.
However, they soon found out that they were too nervous. The shadow flying into the morning meeting hall was a grotesque gray bird. It would be wrong to call it a gray bird, because it had white fur above its neck.
Wu Zhongyuan didn't expect the third master to come so quickly, but the time is about the same. This guy has been active in the area where the south and the north meet recently. Previously, he made three one-way trips between the morning meeting hall and the west gate. Boy, this will take more than an hour.
Just as Wu Zhongyuan was thinking about how to introduce the third master to the crowd, the third master jumped and turned around from his shoulders. Originally, his head was facing south, but he turned his head north, "Oh, you are pulling your sword and doing it. Well, do you want to kill me?"
The people were already in shock, and they became more and more shocked when they heard it speak.
Wu Zhongyuan turned his head and wanted to see who was drawing his sword, but after tilting his head, he saw the bird's **** of the third master. In front of everyone, he couldn't pull the third master away. He is standing at the door now, with Wu Junyue sitting in the north, no matter who draws the sword, it is not trying to kill him, it is just an instinctive reaction under the nervousness.
"This is my squire, everyone remember it. If there is an emergency in the future, I will send it to give orders." Wu Zhongyuan turned around and said to the crowd. He turned around, and the third master also turned around. The third master was a medium-sized bird. When he jumped around, his tail brushed Wu Zhongyuan's face again.
The crowd stood up and agreed.
Wu Zhongyuan took the third master out of the morning meeting hall, and after getting away from the crowd, he asked, "What's your reply, sir?"
The third master is not a simple believing bird. It has lived for a long time and knows when to shout loudly and when to speak in a low voice. Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's question, the third master approached Wu Zhongyuan's left ear and said in a low voice, "Very good, very good, very good."
After waiting for a while, the third master continued to speak, Wu Zhongyuan urged, "What else?"
"No more." The third master shook his head.
"Well, let's go." Wu Zhongyuan nodded, and he could see that the old blind man was very happy. The old blind man always hoped that he could unify the three clans, and taking back the bear clan was the most crucial step, but anyone with a little knowledge Everyone knows that if you want to become a superpower, the first element is a vast territory. The bigger the site, the more resistant it is to tossing.
The third master may be in a hurry to do something, but this time he didn't talk to him again, fluttered his wings and went south.
Wu Zhongyuan suddenly remembered something and shouted and asked, "Is there any progress in what I told you before?"
"What's the matter?" The third master turned his head.
"Nothing, let's go, let's go." Wu Zhongyuan frowned and waved his hand.
"Oh, looking for a beast with a phoenix tail and a dragon head, I looked for it, but I didn't find it." The third master said, and flew away.
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head helplessly, turned and returned to the morning meeting hall. Before he could speak, Wu Tong took the initiative to say, "Da Wu, there is a place in the east of the city..."
Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand to interrupt Wu Tong's words, "You don't need to make so much trouble, just borrow the wing of your mansion, go, you take me there."
Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan had made up his mind, Wu Tong also did not dare to persuade him any more. He turned around and led the way.
Wu Zhongyuan turned around and said to everyone, "Don't walk around, everyone, I'll invite everyone to drink after the talk."
Wu Tong originally wanted to bring Wu Zhongyuan to the office where he handled official business, but Wu Zhongyuan did not go, but chose a wing, and then ordered someone to send pen and ink.
As soon as the door closed, Wu Tong immediately fell to his knees and leaned against the ground.
I know very well what he has done. As early as when Wu Zhongyuan went to Youxiong for a blood test, he had severely interrogated Wu Zhongyuan. After learning that Wu Di was of the Jiuyin blood, he agreed with General Wu Hongru. Wu Di said that he and Wu Ao were a natural pair. When Wu Zhongyuan went to Youxiong to rescue Wu Di, he sneered at Wu Zhongyuan again. He could not forget these things, and Wu Zhongyuan would naturally not forget them either.
Seeing Wu Tong kneeling down, Wu Zhongyuan didn't help him or let him get up. After pondering, he asked, "Do you know my father?"
"Yes." Wu Tong replied in a trembling voice. He was over sixty years old, so he naturally recognized Wu Hao.
"Did my father be mean to you when he was in power?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.
"My subordinates deserve to die for their crimes. Please punish Wu Tong." Wu Tong shivered. The older he got, the more he understood human nature. Son.
Wu Zhongyuan raised his eyebrows and scolded, "You have lived so old in vain? Can't you see what Wu Ao is? Do you have dog eyes?"
Wu Tong trembled like chaff, how dare he answer.
"Have you participated in the affairs of the Bai Lao Clan?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
Wu Tong shook his head again and again.
"Have you been involved in the Sand Castle and Wind Valley?" Wu Zhongyuan asked sharply.
Wu Tong saw sweat on his forehead and did not dare to answer.
"Have you participated in the Wushan incident?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.
Wu Tong leaned over to the ground, silent as a cicada.
"He has already started attacking his own clan, and you are still loyal to him? Are you a warrior of the bear clan or a dog of Wu Ao?" Wu Zhongyuan asked loudly.
"My subordinates deserve to die, my subordinates deserve to die." Wu Tonglian pleaded guilty.
"Get up." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Wu Tong was frightened and did not dare to get up.
Seeing his hesitation and dawdling, Wu Zhongyuan suddenly kicked him down, "Get up! Write down all Wu Ao's crimes for me, and whoever gets close to him will also write it down. One counts as one, and you do it yourself. Write down any wicked things you ever did."
Wu Tong answered in a row, got up in a panic, walked to the desk and shook his pen and wrote quickly. Although he was nervous, he knew that his life and that of his family were saved. If Wu Zhongyuan greeted him with a smile, his death would be near.
"I'm giving you a chance, don't know what's wrong," Wu Zhongyuan reprimanded loudly, "Just because you did those nasty things before, it's not too much to chop you up."
"Yes yes yes, subordinates are convicted, subordinates are convicted." Wu Tong wrote while wiping his sweat.
Wu Tong wrote very quickly, after writing one after another, he continued to write three or four in succession.
"It's almost done, pick the important ones to write, and don't add trivial matters." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"Yes yes yes." Wu Tong raised his hands again to wipe the sweat.
I wrote two or three more sheets, and then I gave up. I put my hands on the confession and bowed to submit it.
Wu Zhongyuan took it back with a backhand and looked at it at a glance. Some things he knew, and some things he didn't know, and he didn't have time to scrutinize them.
"How do you think I should punish you?" Wu Zhongyuan tilted his head and squinted.
Wu Tong fell to his knees again, waiting for his hair to fall.
"I'm angry when I think of the things you did before," Wu Zhongyuan slapped Wu Tong with a backhand, "You still want to kill me?"
Another note in return, "Are Wu Di and Wu Ao a natural pair?"
The two slaps were ruthless. Although they didn't use spiritual energy, they used strength. Blood could be seen at the corner of Wu Tong's mouth, and the palm prints on his cheeks were clearly visible.
"The subordinate is convicted, and the subordinate is convicted." Although Wu Tong was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, there was no sweat on his forehead.
"Get up, go back and call Wu Rong over to me." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Wu Tong heard the words, as if he had been granted amnesty, he hurriedly got up, bowed and stepped back.
“Daqiu is an important border town for my bear clan. Take good care of me. If something goes wrong, you are the only one who asks.” Wu Zhongyuan sternly admonished.
Wu Tong was overjoyed when he heard the words, he knelt down in shame, and thanked him repeatedly.
"Alright, alright, go and call Wu Rong, remember to go down and clean up the banquet table." Wu Zhongyuan said with a wave of his hand.
Wu Tong repeatedly agreed, wiped his tears, got up, and opened the door...
