Chapter 1363 The Crisis Ahead
Xue Zongwu sneered: "Yes, but the account was gone and Xiaoxiao burned it all."
"In the past, when encountering this kind of situation, the royal court's special envoys could only go home and report the truth to our king." General Xue's power lies here, and Shuangxi County is also the victim, and the warehouses were burned down.
"What now?"
"If it's 'that person', we must investigate. You will still be in big trouble."
Xue Zongwu was puzzled: "The accounts are all gone, where can I get into trouble?"
"Here, I mean, the accounts of Shuangxi County Government are gone, but the accounts below are all there. There are so many mines, horse farms, markets, warehouses, wealthy merchants of all sizes... they have all the items in their hands. There is a set of accounts!" Tong Huan explained to him, "If 'that person' is determined to investigate, Shuangxi County Government will have to compile the previous accounts and re-establish the accounts!"
Hearing this, Xue Zongwu felt something bad: "What's the problem?"
Didn't it turn out to be a disaster?
"Those account books that were burned have been smoothed by Qian Yu a long time ago, and outsiders have been unable to find any problems for many years." Tong Huan said solemnly, "But if the accounts are rebuilt on a large scale and uniformly, those accounts and those that have been The smoothed account will definitely be exposed!"
The principle of accounting is that if there is a decrease, there must be an increase, and if there is a hole, there must be a make-up. The great shifts of the universe that Qian Yu had made in the account books over the years were very complicated. It was difficult for anyone except him to figure them out. The audit sent by Yao Wangting never found any loopholes. Now once the ledger is rebuilt, many of the entries don't match up. "
He coughed and said, "At this time, those lost account books from Shuangxi County will be useful. They are originals. As long as they are used to check against the newly created accounts, then..."
He didn't need to say any more, Xue Zongwu understood and was rubbing his temples hard.
Reconciliation! Qingyang stole his account book for the final "litigation"!
"No wonder Shuangxi County Government came to report a few days ago. Wang Ting's special envoy notified the two mines to audit the accounts and asked them to hand over the accounts for the past ten years. Oh, it is indeed the Qingyang Supervisor who is secretly planning to deal with me!"
In his anger, he stopped talking about "that person" and called Qingyang directly.
This was also the reason why he hurriedly sent Qian Yu to Shuangxi: to check and fill in the gaps before others could catch him.
"That's why those two men in black want to kill Qian Yu." Tong Huan said sternly, "Qian Yu wiped out all the accounts. Once he dies, no one will be able to remember the details, and all the accounts will have to be overturned and restarted!"
"And the Wang Ting's special envoy will check the accounts ten days later. By then you have probably arrived at the capital, and are not in Shuangxi or in the army!" Xue Zongwu cannot sit in Shuangxi, so it will be difficult for him to interfere with the supervision and audit sent by Qingyang.
"The original accounts were a mess and difficult to review; but once they were burned down, the people sent by the Qingyang Supervisor would have reason to ask for new accounts."
"What a plan, what a trick!" Xue Zongwu was anxious, pacing back and forth on the martial arts training ground, "How insidious!"
He is not good at deciding the outcome in this aspect.
He would rather have a real showdown on the battlefield than play these fancy jobs.
"What now?"
"The remaining accounts cannot be burned! There are still ten days left. You must make up for the accounts as soon as possible before Qingyang Supervisor sends people to come down to audit, and you must try to find balance. Otherwise, it won't be you yourself, but Qingyang. People sent by Yang are supervising Shuangxi County’s account establishment!”
"Ten days..." Xue Zongwu was speechless, his mouth bitter. Do all the accounts of the past five or seven years, all complicated and trivial, need to be redone?
Re-doing is not the most troublesome thing. The troublesome thing is that the account must be as even as possible!
Not to mention ten days, two months is not enough!
"Hurry." Tong Huan knew that what General Xue lacked most now was time.
"Damn it!" Xue Zongwu punched the air fiercely and hurriedly left the martial arts field.
Tong Huan added: "You are about to leave for home, so be careful on the way."
Xue Zongwu hummed. He had been worried recently, always feeling that something bad was coming. The last time he encountered such a whim, he immediately changed the battle layout and missed the enemy's ambush.
Even if Mu Liao didn't mention it, he planned to walk cautiously on his way back home.
…
The rain has been falling all day long.
After only a few steps, Dong Rui was too lazy to hold an umbrella. But when he walked into the branch of Yangshan Chamber of Commerce, his clothes were already half wet.
Careless. He shook the water from his hair and heard a low sound of xun.
There are few people in the Chamber of Commerce today. Besides, the only one who can play an instrument here casually is a willful owner.
Dong Rui walked to the backyard of the Chamber of Commerce, which was off-limits to others, and jumped up to the second floor. Sure enough, he saw He Lingchuan leaning on the wooden pillar of the corridor and blowing the xun. Qingfeng nodded slightly.
The melodious melody carries the unique desolation of ancient xun, and with the sound of rain outside the eaves, it becomes more and more distant.
Even a person like Dong Rui, who is not familiar with music, can hear the deep loneliness, as if the Xun blower is alone in the world, with only the gentle breeze and drizzle to accompany him.
This long corridor, separated by blooming pomegranates and jacarandas, is a human world.
Dong Rui unconsciously slowed down.
Sometimes, he would forget that He Lingchuan was also a human being with emotions, worries, and flesh and blood.
The hot-blooded young man who rescued Ke Jihai in Luyuan of Yuan Kingdom has become the deep and silent Emperor Jiuyou.
Dong Rui never knew what He Lingchuan was thinking in his heart.
The song ended, and the lingering sound lingered.
He Lingchuan put down the ancient Xun and opened his eyes, looking at Dong Rui and said: "The kitchen has made a lot of taro and bamboo shoots buns, and there is also fresh sweet and spicy sauce."
There is still a little tail left in the bamboo shoot season. Use taro paste to make the skin, fill it with diced meat, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts and other fillings, and steam it in a steamer. It is a breakfast that the locals like very much.
Dong Rui came here at this time just to eat: "I'll go in a while. Your ability to play music has improved again."
"Just make do." Jucheng was quiet, while the Panlong world was in flames. He Lingchuan had been preparing for war at night these days and was deeply touched.
He played with the ancient Xun, and Dong Rui's eyes fixed: "Hey, when did you open the last hole?"
The last hole of this Xun was sealed after He Lingchuan left Lingxu City. Why is it open now?
No wonder the tone sounds a little different.
"This?" He Lingchuan shook the xiao in his hand, "It has been opened for several days."
Dong Rui was shocked, that means...
"I have a hunch that the trip to Yaoguo is full of murderous intentions, and we need to go all out." He Lingchuan said slowly, "This time when I go to Tianshui City, Qingyang will be very unhappy to see me, and he may make some moves; Yao Wang's intentions are unclear, so we must be on guard."
He can feel that Yaoguo is not friendly to him.
Heh, maybe Yaoguo is not friendly to anyone.
"In addition, your colleagues are not easy to deal with. They have strange means, and they can even kill Situ Yu. If someone hires them to deal with me..."
He is confident that his cultivation and fighting skills are far better than Situ Yu, but there has always been a reason that there is only a thief for a thousand days, and there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. If the mysterious demon puppet master organization does not take action, it will be fine. Once it takes action, it will be a torrential rain. The victim is really difficult to deal with.
"There is another force that must be mentioned--" The rain outside the eaves suddenly got heavier, and He Lingchuan's words drowned out the sound of the rain and reached Dong Rui's ears, "--Tiangong and Beijia."
"How could Beijia notice us when we are so far away?" Dong Rui wondered, "Is it just bored?"
"The rise of the legend of the Black Armored Army and the Nine Nether Emperor first aroused the vigilance of the little gods." He Lingchuan jumped onto the railing and sat down, with his back against the pillar. "According to the news collected by the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce from the central part of the Flashing Gold Plain, some of the believers of the little gods have converted to the Nine Nether Emperor. Even a few days ago, Yutuo City built a shrine dedicated to the Nine Nether Emperor."
Dong Rui smiled and said, "They worship you as a land immortal, and they are not afraid that you will shorten your life."
"People go to pray to God, isn't it for a hope?" Hope to live a good life, hope to be safe and less sick.
For civilians who are suffering from injustice and bullying but are powerless to resist, isn't it that they hope for someone to uphold justice for them and eliminate evil and violence?
In all these years, has there ever been such a hero in the Golden Plains?
In order to attract believers, the gods have to expend their divine power to show miracles, in order to convey to the world the signal of "I exist, I am powerful". On the other hand, the Nine Nether Emperor and his black armored army, acting on behalf of heaven and punishing evil people everywhere, to the world, isn't this a miracle?
What is a miracle?
Isn't it to show power that ordinary people can't imagine, and to accomplish deeds that ordinary people dare not imagine?
What the Nine Nether Emperor did was in line with the judgment of ordinary people.
If he wanted to show miracles, he just had to come out and kill a few big villains. Why wasn't he stronger than other gods who had to work hard for two or three years to squeeze out a miracle?
So it's not surprising that the "Nine Nether Emperor" had believers in just a few months, and the number of believers is increasing. What's more, He Lingchuan has a Qianglong battle armor that can collect wishes, so he is not afraid of others building a shrine for himself.
But this angered the other minor gods.
The Shining Gold Plain has always been a good place for all kinds of gods to compete for believers, that is to say, there are the most small gods and wild gods here. If there is any disturbance, they will know it first.
How big is the difference between the God Realm and the Human Realm? News spreads quickly. Therefore, He Lingchuan believes that the appearance of "Emperor Jiuyou" and the actions of the Black Armor Army should have attracted the attention of more and more gods.
And every time Emperor Jiuyou eliminates evil, a dragon head totem will appear in the area for three days. This, it is difficult for Beijia not to mind-
The Demon Emperor is a descendant of the dragon clan. After hearing about the abnormality of the Shining Gold Plain, how could he not be interested in Emperor Jiuyou and the black dragon totem?
"Just because we didn't see Beijia take any action doesn't mean that it will really be quiet." He Lingchuan took a breath, "A biting dog doesn't bark. Who knows if Lingxu City has already made a plan. So, this is the fourth hidden danger."
"I said this, and I haven't taken into account the risk of getting rid of Xue Zongwu. But if you want to break the situation, you have to go to Yaoguo." This trip must be taken. He asked Dong Rui, "By the way, was your transformation successful?"
