Sixty-six [Mr. Dang Mo, Meridian Mountain Cave]
After leaving Deyuan Tower, Zhong Qi had no intention of walking around, so he was about to walk around the alley and return to the inn to practice. After walking a hundred steps along the alley, a "ding ding, dangdang" sound came.
Looking over, there was a small door on the brick wall. The plaque read the ironware workshop, and the stove inside was red. Two craftsmen and an old man were all knocking on the ironware with their upper bodies naked.
"How strange, in these chaotic times, the ironware business should be very good. Why don't you open the shop on the street and get it into this alley? How many people can buy it?" Zhong Qi rubbed his chin and thought.
However, there are really few blacksmith shops in Liangzhou City. Zhong Qi has been shopping for a long time and has never seen anything except the one in front of him.
After pondering for a moment, he entered the iron shop and asked the old man inside, "Master, do you still have good steel?"
The Li battle in the previous period broke, and now I saw the blacksmith shop, and I was just in time to use the opportunity to make a good hand.
The three people who kept slung their heads and knocking them asked, and when they saw that they were a Taoist priest, the old man stopped his work and replied, "What is the purpose of Taoist priest?"
"Of course it is for killing people and defending themselves," Zhong Qi said in his heart, but this is not easy to say.
He didn't say what he was going to do, and asked back, "Master, what will you fight?"
This is very presumptuous, but in this world, the master dared not get angry, but just curled his lips and said, "I can beat hoes, rakes, plows, knocks, hammers, sickles, kitchen knives, I can beat them here..."
Zhong Qixiao said, "Can weapons be used?"
"Of course you can fight, as long as you pay, you can fight..." Before the old man could speak, a busy apprentice spoke first.
The old man opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say much. Seeing this, Zhong Qi said, "The money is enough, but you need good equipment. You can't make some crisp or soft things to fool."
"There are high-quality iron (steel), and the Taoist priest wants that ordinary weapon, how heavy is it to fight." The old man said.
After thinking about it, Zhong Qi was more suitable for heavy weapons. He used light weapons such as swords, which were very easy to break with the forging quality of this era.
Moreover, although the light weapons are beautiful, they cannot break the armor. Just like before Zhong Qi, they used a stick to fight against warriors, and all the tourists in the martial arts world were invincible. However, when facing the military soldiers, they were defeated.
Zhu Gui, like Zhu Gui, can even wear three layers of armor, weighing more than a hundred kilograms, which is invincible and invincible on the battlefield.
To kill such generals head-on, you must use heavy weapons, such as golden gourd hammers, axes, moon swords, four-edge maces, bamboo whip, etc. If you rub them, you will be injured and die if you hit them. Even if you cover them with a layer of iron plate, you will die if you hit them firmly.
Zhong Qi thought for a while and finally chose to play a pair of whip maces, which suits his personality. After all, a Taoist uses a hammer or an axe, and his painting style is not very beautiful.
Moreover, there are many gods who use whips and maces. Generally, the statues of gods hold golden whips in their hands, killing ghosts and demons, which are majestic and most in line with Taoist style. So they said: "Then let me play a pair of maces for me, each weighing fifty kilograms, and make up an integer."
"Uh... the Taoist priest was joking, not to mention whether the villain could beat him or not, nor to say whether the Taoist priest had the strength of this arm. Each of these fifty kilograms would be worth 100 kilograms if they were combined.
I was afraid that the bowl would be thick, and not talking about fighting and competition, it would be difficult to hold it even if I was small, and I couldn't help it if I was big. Even if I was Guan Wang's knife was only eighty pounds..." The master smiled speechlessly, and the two apprentices laughed.
Zhong Qi shook his head and said, "I have this arm strength, but it is really hard to dance when it is too big. So according to you, how much can I fight?"
Zhong Qixuan also practiced the secret yoga and practiced horizontally. He still had the strength of his arm, but he could take it, which did not mean he could dance.
The master looked at Zhong Qi's palm and pondered: "Often people use whip maces, and they use 6 kilograms and 4 kilograms to use. The Taoist priest must be heavy, so how about 20 kilograms per piece?"
"Okay, just twenty kilograms. Choose the iron material and the silver money will be enough." Zhong Qimei waved.
The master said: "It's all very iron. If it is interrupted, just look for the old man, one 20 kilograms, and the Taoist priest is four or seven cents of silver.
If you play a pair, you can make up an integer of nine taels of silver. The Taoist priest can give you a fixed amount first and get it three days later."
"Not hindrance, I'll give it to you directly. Just get the weapons done for me." Zhong Qi smiled and took out a fifty taels of ingot and handed it to the master.
The four hundred taels I had had before were paid by the maid, and the one hundred taels were also returned to Zhong Qi.
Seeing this, several apprentices took the money with a smile, and went to the money house next door to remit the broken silver. After removing nine taels, the rest of them all provided Zhong Qi.
After solving the problem of weapons, Zhong Qi was no longer worried and went back to the inn to practice.
...
A few days later, hundreds of boats competed in the Han River. Taoist men wore big yellow robes and lotus romance crowns. They exposed a piece of mace handle on their left and right shoulders. They rode a small boat to cross the Han River.
After getting ashore, the Taoist threw a few copper coins for the Shao Gong, and then left with his hands. His steps seemed to be slow and fast, and disappeared on the winding mountain road in an instant.
The Taoist was Zhong Qi. He stayed in Liangzhou for another three days, and his two maces were beaten, and the southeastern imperial edict also arrived in Liangzhou.
Deng Kui became a legitimate governor, and the court gave him scepters, flags, government offices, and three corpses.
To open a government office means to establish a yamen and appoint officials by yourself. If you are in charge of the three departments, you can follow the imperial system, with the three departments as the three provinces and the six cadres as the six ministries.
Mei Culture, Zhu Gui and others all obtained official positions, either as the chief secretary, or as the governor, or as the military envoy, or as the military general, etc.
Of course, this is not important. What is important is another imperial seal of imperial paper in the court, Zhong Qi: [Mr. Dang Demon Fu Dao], Zhong Xian Gong of Duyang, real person.
The Wushan Mountain was also enthroned as: Wuzi Mountain’s blessed land, and the clear and emptiness of the miraculous and wonderful world.
Although Daliang has now become a small court located in a remote corner, it still has a certain influence on the Central Plains. At least all anti-Hu Yi army, princes, and green forest tyrants all took the banner of the Liang Dynasty.
Although this imperial edict cannot really turn Wushan into a blessed cave, at least it has the opportunity to become a cave. It is like having a driver's license and you can get on the highway as long as you have a car in the future.
With this imperial decree, as long as Zhong Qi practices and the inspiration of heaven and earth is in place, Wushan will truly turn into a blessing in the cave.
And for Zhong Qi's imperial title, it would be a timely help.
Due to the loss of luck, Zhong Qi has been in a very unlucky life recently. He was upset when he entered the state of meditation and was always out of trouble. Moreover, he practiced hard for many days without any improvement in his skills.
The court appointed Zhong Qi as the real person. Mr., in the dark, a blue air fell down, instantly dispelling the black air. Now, Zhong Qi's luck has not only recovered, but also has a slight increase, and the court has favored him.
The court is the rule of law of the country, and controls the life and death of all people. They are appointed as officials and make wishes, which can bring luck to people. Ghosts and gods can prevent them from being resistant to them, and all things are difficult to invade.
But generally, small officials only have red official spirit, fourth and fifth ranks have golden official spirit, and first and second ranks have blue official spirit, and purple official spirit.
Zhong Qi's imperial title is equivalent to the third rank, so there is a ray of green official energy that dispels evil energy and misfortune energy. However, if the small court in the southeast is enthroned by the orthodox Central Plains, at least a blue cloud canopy must be formed.
In addition to the imperial seal, there was also a joy, which was more realistic. In order to thank Zhong Qi for helping him break the city, Deng Kui issued the first important order since the founding of the mansion.
Given gold and silver, a contract of 1,000 taels of silver, and various types of robes, ritual objects, and sesame oil, a total of dozens of boxes. Later, the people were condemned to send them to the mountains of Zishan in the morning.
At the foot of Wuzi Mountain, it is twenty miles in circumference, and it is enthroned to Wushan Mountain. Taxes, forests, and fields belong to the Demon-Subduing Palace.
In addition, it will also cost 10,000 taels of silver to build the Wuzishan Palace, add the Leizu Hall, Taiyi Palace, Zhongxianweng Pavilion, Duyang Xiangong Temple, etc. to worship Zhong Qishen statues.
It was just because the Hu people besieged the city and the summer tax was not collected, this decision was collectively opposed by officials from various departments of Fengxiangjie Town.
I think that although Zhong Qi made contributions, he should not have spent a lot of money on this. You should know that it was 10,000 taels, which was the three-month tax revenue of Liangzhou.
However, due to Deng Kui's efforts to support, they took one step back and reduced it to 6,000 taels, and were recruited in three phases to build corvee labor.
Zhong Qi's journey was complete and he raised a lot of money for his practice. He said goodbye to Deng Kui and returned to Wushan to practice.
Chapter completed!
