Origin Chapter 562: Hard work

With the sound of two gunshots, the two burly men fell. The fall was very direct, and the fall was very crisp, without rolling and struggling, without screaming in pain.

Wang Xinran could have attacked just one of them, but she didn't.

She could also wound without killing, but she didn't do that either.

After the gunshots, there was silence in and out of the city. There was no surprise and shouting, only trepidation.

Wu Zhongyuan was both surprised and not surprised by Wang Xinran's actions. After a brief hesitation, he stepped forward and took his hand from Wang Xinran's hand. The gun was turned over and inspected. He did not ask Wang Xinran why he did it, because he knew why Wang Xinran did it. Wang Xinran's move has at least three purposes, three reasons to be exact, one is that two strong men besieged a woman, which aroused her disgust, and the other is that Wang Xinran understands him and knows what he wants to convey to the outside world through today's personal selection. such a message. The third is that Wang Xinran intends to establish power, not only for himself, but also for him.

After a brief look, Wu Zhongyuan returned the gun to Wang Xinran and pointed at her to be selected.

Wang Xinran walked over under everyone's attention, poised and looking as usual.

There are two more candidates after Wang Xinran. The two columns did not compete and ended with one of them withdrawing.

At this point, the selection is all over, the selection and rejection are sorted, and three bodies are left in the field.

Everyone was very excited before the selection began, but as the selection progressed, the atmosphere became very solemn, and at the end it was even solemn to the point of depression. Wu Zhongyuan's selection of the guards exceeded everyone's expectations and imagination. , Before that, the impression he left on everyone was friendly and casual, but at this time everyone didn't think so. They saw Wu Zhongyuan's ruthless side through this selection.

At this time, the Creation Office sent over the yellow cloak exclusive to the guards. Wu Zhongyuan glanced at Zhu Qianwei, wishing Qianwei would understand, and re-lined up to organize distribution.

More than 600 people, it took a long time to distribute the cloak. During this period, Wu Zhongyuan stood still. Because he did not get his permission, the losers did not dare to retreat, not even the wizards and warriors on the city wall. Dare to leave on your own.

When all the personal soldiers put on yellow cloaks, Wu Zhongyuan walked to the front of the queue and exhorted in a deep voice, "Soldiers are bound to obey orders, I don't need you to distinguish right from wrong, I don't need you to measure the scale, and I don't need you to question Is the order correct, I just need you to obey."

After a short pause, Wu Zhongyuan said again, "Your ability to distinguish right from wrong is not as good as mine, and you are not as good at judging standards. You may not understand my orders at a critical moment. If this happens, What do you do? Question? Disobey? What if your understanding is wrong? What if your fighter is delayed because of your lack of understanding? What if a monster turns into your relatives and friends, I can tell the difference and you I can't tell the difference, I asked you to kill them, but you are self-righteous disobedience, who will bear the serious consequences? Is it me who is in charge of the overall situation, or you who are soldiers?"

Wu Zhongyuan's remarks made Wang Xinran's brows slightly wrinkle, because in her opinion, Wu Zhongyuan's explanation was superfluous, which would reduce the solemnity and majesty he had deliberately erected to some extent, but she also understood Wu Zhongyuan's helplessness , There are too many stupid people who don't understand his good intentions. If they don't explain it, they will lead to unnecessary slander and questioning and slander.

Wu Zhongyuan said again, "In the future, you will be responsible for protecting the security of the palace. I may also send you to protect other people, or I may send you to do other things. You must perform your duties with due diligence. Don’t watch what you should see, don’t say what you shouldn’t say, don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask, and don’t do what you shouldn’t do.”

Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, but no one answered. Wang Xinran wanted to laugh but held it back. She wanted to laugh because what Wu Zhongyuan said before was part of the military regulations of later generations.

Zhu Qianwei asked, "Have you heard what the Holy Master said?"

As soon as the selected guards reacted, hundreds of people responded in unison.

Wu Zhongyuan did not stand still, but walked slowly from the front of the queue, and at the same time said in a deep voice, "I have experienced more dangers than you, and I have experienced more wars than you. How difficult it is, many people just think they are brave, but they are afraid of death when it comes to the end. If I didn't know the time of life and death before the competition, those who quit may not know that they are so timid until they pee their pants in fear of the disaster. If such a person were to infiltrate the Imperial Guard, what would be the consequences? Not only would he lose his own life, but he would also kill your comrades and those you protected."

Wu Zhongyuan said here and turned to face the losers, "Those who withdraw voluntarily, don't make any excuses for their cowardice, I can even guess what kind of excuses you will come up with, there are no more than two kinds, One is that he is unwilling to kill each other with his clan, and the other is that he is dissatisfied with my approach. I tell you, you can only tell who is truly brave if you face life and death. If I don’t use this method of selection, all Those who quit will all die on the battlefield tomorrow, and it's better to lose face today than lose their lives tomorrow."

Wu Zhongyuan said here, pointing to three bodies not far away, "They died for you in the place where they died, and they were brought back for a good life to be buried. The family members will give them great care."

Someone responded loudly, sent someone out, and brought the body back.

Wu Zhongyuan turned to the east and pointed at Wang Xinran, "You, the woman with a hidden weapon, come out."

Waiting for Wang Xinran to appear, Wu Zhongyuan waved to Zhu Qianwei. The latter understood and stepped forward on his own to lead the selected guards into the city.

Wu Zhongyuan and Wang Xinran walked behind.

"Hi, beauty, what's your name?" Wu Zhongyuan did not smile.

"You shouldn't have explained so much to them just now, it will damage your dignity." Wang Xinran was also expressionless.

"You have to convince the public, lest they have misunderstandings and slander." Wu Zhongyuan spoke modern language.

Wang Xinran also speaks modern language, "People who understand you don't need to explain, and those who don't understand you don't need to explain. I killed them, didn't I cause you any trouble?"

"It's fine, there is still a moral bottom line." Wu Zhongyuan shook his head. Since there was someone in the distance, the two had no expressions on their faces when they spoke.

"Did something happen to you?" Wang Xinran asked.

"What's the matter?" Wu Zhongyuan asked rhetorically.

"Your actions just now clearly sounded like knocking a mountain to shock a tiger or killing a chicken to terrify a monkey. Has anyone offended you?" Wang Xinran asked.

"It's a long story." Wu Zhongyuan said, turning to a brief and comprehensive account of the conspiracy between Wu Di and the old blind man, and Wang Xinran knowing about it.

When Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, Wang Xinran nodded, "I've entered the city, I can't be with you, so as not to cause suspicion, you don't have to worry about me, and you don't have to take special care of me."

After Wang Xinran finished speaking, he walked quickly, catching up with the guards in front.

The residence of the imperial guards has long been prepared. It is on the left and right of the palace. Compared with the Zuofu Palace and the Youbi Palace, the guards are closer to the palace.

Zhu Qianwei knows Wang Xinran's identity, and future matters can be handed over to Zhu Qianwei. These guards have just been selected and need to undergo corresponding training.

It was getting late, but Wu Zhongyuan did not go to the harem, but returned to Zhongtian Hall to handle official business.

Youxiong was originally the capital of the bear clan, but now that the Central Plains are unified, a large number of functional departments need to be added, and the expansion of the capital cannot be delayed.

The offices and residences of the officials of the six departments need to be built. There are not only two chief officials in the six departments, but also a large number of officials who need to be transferred from various places, and a large number of houses and residences need to be prepared.

After the unification of the world, more people from all over the world will come to do business, and more people will come to worship and establish diplomatic relations. When they come, they can't live without a place to live. Therefore, the post house also needs to be expanded.

The post station responsible for horse mounts and communications in various places also needs to be expanded, and a large number of messenger birds have to be domesticated, as well as those blue-eyed golden eagles, which also need to be placed in a fixed place.

The taxation materials from Dayuan City will be delivered soon, and the treasury that hoards various materials must also be expanded, site selection, and positioning, all of which are up to him to decide.

Also, the construction of the school and Fushouyuan for Dayuan City must also start immediately. At the end of the month, these nobles will come from all over the world, so they cannot be left without a place to live, and after they come, they must be allowed to study. It is up to him to decide what to study.

The old blind man and others did not eat vegetarian meals either. The Prime Minister's Office presented all requests for instructions. To put it bluntly, they had already set a general opinion. If you agree, you will agree directly, and if you disagree, give specific guidance.

Wu Zhongyuan was busy every day from morning to night in the next period of time. Not only he was busy, but everyone with bears was busy. The expansion required stone and wood. Those armadillos brought by Lao Er from Heiji Mountain were busy with In the back mountain, a cave is dug, and the cave is used to store a large amount of war preparation materials, and the stone materials are used for building buildings. Timber is relatively easy to obtain, and it is cut directly from outside the city. This move kills two birds with one stone. It not only expands the area of ​​farmland outside the city, but also improves the security of the city. If foreign enemies invade, it must pass through a larger open area to approach the city, which is beneficial to Own defense blocking.

As the saying goes, more people are more powerful, and this statement is true. With the concerted efforts of all people, Bear City has new changes every day, changes with each passing day, and expands rapidly.

At this time, not only the bears are busy, but the major cities are also busy, the Sifang camp is being built, and a large number of recruits are needed. All these require the coordination and cooperation of Prince Li and Prince Jiang. I sent it here. This is the greatest sincerity of surrendering allegiance. He should also reward him for repaying his favor. He had previously promised that many Yuancheng and Yicheng in charge of the two would be equipped with black iron weapons. This matter must also be implemented. Yanyun Mountain took two hundred pieces each and sent them to Lianshan and Jiuli respectively.

Yanyun Mountain also has a large number of black iron weapons that have been damaged and cannot be used. They will be brought out together and handed over to Li Dashou to smelt and recreate them. Guard.

Before this, he had instructed Li Dashou to make black iron armor. At that time, Li Dashou had few helpers and could only build one set per month. This time, all the metallurgical masters of the bird tribe worked together to build one set every day. , This kind of mysterious iron armor is mixed with mysterious crystals, which is not only invulnerable to swords and guns, but can also be worn by induction. This is what he prepared for the Eighteen Warriors. It is very precious.

The barbarian's Tiangang crossbow and Disha bow also began to be built. The first strong bow and strong crossbow were not assembled in the big cities, but planned to be the first to be distributed to the four camps. After unifying the three clans, his strategy changed. , Change passive defense to active sniping, and send heavy troops from the four directions. Even if the seal disappears, you can block and intercept the four tribes of gods, ghosts, demons, and monsters, so as to buy more time to recuperate and develop.

Because of the busy work, there are many things I want to do that I have no time to do, so I can only postpone the matter of going to the Orc Altar and trying to obtain the Black Soul Stone.

Summoning Jiang Zheng and Li Tai to ask about the past can only be delayed.

I don't care about moving the grave to Jiuli for my mother.

In addition, Zhou Raoguo's dwarfs had come to ask for help before, hoping that he could send someone to help drive away the man-eating seabirds. This must be done, because Zhou Raoguo's people are good at creating things, so you can ask them to help make fire guns Waiting for firearms, but the premise of asking them for help is to help them drive out man-eating seabirds. He is not worried about sending others. Wu Di is the best candidate. She has a eagle king and has a good chance of winning. Busy with two big heads, he couldn't get out of it at all, so this matter could only be postponed.

There is also a way to find a way to advance to the ninth level of the heavenly grid. There are only two ways to advance to the ninth level of the heavenly grid. One is to investigate the white-haired old man who has no soul in Yanyun Mountain. With silver aura, you can try to examine his meridians and deduce the key to qi training. Another way is to deduce Jin Jian Xuanwen, that is, Tianzhuan inscriptions, and find out how to improve it. But these two methods take a lot of time, and I don't have the energy to do them now, so I can only delay.

If it were someone else, so many things would come in one head, and I would have been unable to control it and collapsed long ago, but when I was busy, Wu Zhongyuan never got confused. Trivial matters have never been overlooked or forgotten, and he was not allowed to send someone to inform the barbarians when he was busy. Previously, he had asked the barbarians to send 100 young men and women to Youxiong to take blood tests after the festival, and to teach martial arts and heart methods. Inform them of the exact date, which is the end of the month.

During this period, shell coins were also created, and Wu Zhongyuan immediately sent an order to pass the country.

Since the 15th day of the first lunar month, Wu Zhongyuan and Wu Huan, Li Wanzi, and Jiang Dahua have been discussing the three clans' qi training methods and martial arts. Not only the warriors of the bear clan, but also the bird clan and the ox clan, they must determine whether the martial arts of the three clans can be combined with the practice of qi and heart.

The result of deliberation is that the three clan's qi training methods are indeed related to blood. The cattle warriors cannot practice the martial arts of the bear clan, and the bear clan cannot practice the martial arts of the other two clans. The same is true for the bird clan. To change this situation, only intermarriage can be carried out.

This is bad news, but there is also good news, that is, pure yang and pure yin blood is not affected by blood. To put it bluntly, people with pure yang and pure yin blood can also practice bear spells. .

Before the end of the month, Wu Zhongyuan and Dasha went out for a trip. Without the Blue Dragon Armor, the movement speed was greatly affected. It took a day and night to go to Xinyue Island in the East China Sea. Dasha has the ability to ward off poison and ignores the poisonous gas over the island. , landed slowly, made sure that the monkey did not slack off in his duties, checked the armor again, prepared the strings, and then took off with Dasha and returned.

He brought outside food to the monkeys when he came, and a lot of fruit when he left.

When I went back, I didn't go back to Youxiong directly, but went to Daze and had a brief conversation with Wu Qin, telling Wu Qin that he was going to take A Luo, and then leave some fruit to go to Heling A Luo and A Bing received a bear.

Dasha landed from the post yard, Wu Zhongyuan took the two to the direction of the school, he was going to put A Luo into the guard, A Bing was still young and could go to the school like the children of a high-ranking cadre in Ganyuan City.

Not far away, A Bing suddenly stopped.

Wu Zhongyuan felt it and tilted his head to look at him.

"Sir, there is something on the person who passed by just now..."
