"Dead … he's dead …"
Wu Si stared at Wu Lie's head in a daze, as if he could not believe that his brother, whom he had been chatting with, had been decapitated just like that.
Especially in front of him, where he was surrounded by a group of soldiers with their swords drawn, the sharpness almost reaching his back.
The coldness of the swords and the ruthlessness in the other party's eyes made him certain that if he made any strange movements, the other party would really stab him.
However, his lips were trembling, and his heart was filled with disbelief. "How … How dare he? How dare he? How dare he kill someone from the Wu family??? "
In his heart, he had always thought that Wu Ming was a random man that Wu Zhi had found, and he was nothing. Now, he realized that he was ridiculously wrong.
"You killed him, you actually dared to kill him? Good, very good! "
The old man from the Wu family was furious. "I, Wu Tongtian, will remember you!"
"Your name is so arrogant, but you have no strength at all. I'm so disappointed!"
Wu Ming was speechless, and he stretched his back. "It seems that you can't recognize reality, so I'll use reality to tell you!"
He pointed behind him. "Wu family, I call the shots! I want my wife to go to your Wu family, haha … You dare to humiliate me like this, of course, I have to return the favor! "
Then, he said calmly, "What is the punishment for insulting the soldiers and shouting at the elders?"
"Flogging!"
Wu Tiehu replied loudly.
"Good! Drag him out, 50 lashes each! "
Wu Ming pointed at Wu Tongtian. "He's my elder after all, so I can't embarrass him too much. I'll reduce the punishment by half!"
"Bastard!"
Wu Tongtian's face turned red. "How dare you humiliate me like this?"
However, before he could finish speaking, he was dragged away by the ferocious soldiers. Wu Tiehu raised his whip with a sinister smile and whipped him!
Smack!
A streak of blood appeared, causing Wu Tongtian to shut his mouth in an instant.
Pain!
Intense pain!
The piercing pain caused Wu Tongtian to fall into a trance for a moment.
The whip was a military whip made of high-quality leather, and it was extremely sturdy. Every time before whipping, it had to be dipped in salt water. This was to prevent the wound from getting infected, and to deliberately increase the pain.
"Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law, save me! "
Wu Si was a young boy, after three or four lashes, he immediately became well-behaved. He rolled on the ground, crying and crying.
"Continue!"
Wu Ming did not even blink.
Pa pa!
After another dozen lashes, Wu Tongtian's back was already a mess. Blood and clothes were mixed together, and he was gasping for breath, almost screaming, "Wait! I'm convinced! "
Wu Tiehu stopped and looked at Wu Ming.
"Are you stupid? The execution is not over yet. Why are you stopping? "
Wu Ming flipped open the book, picked up the brush with his right hand, dipped it in the ink, and continued to write meticulously.
His calligraphy was originally passed down from a playboy. It only had the looks, but the inside was a mess. However, after reincarnating, his chest had a ravine, and his strength of character had gradually grown. At this moment, his brush was like a dragon and snake, and the paper was like clouds and smoke. It had the charm of Dao, and was very presentable.
At this moment, he was naturally not copying books, but writing from memory.
This time, during the chaotic world of Great Shang, Wu Ming had extorted many benefits from the Jade Pure I. Not mentioning the Earth Immortal level Jade Pure Daoist techniques, just the geographical maps, the secrets of the grotto-heavens, and the legends of the Earth Immortals were all rare treasures. At this moment, he naturally wrote them down, and prepared to store them in the Wu Family to increase the family's foundation.
Pa! Pa!
Outside, the execution was finally over. Wu Si was already covered in blood, and he could only exhale but not inhale. On the other hand, Wu Tongtian was still half dead, and his mind was still clear. When he saw two Fire Phoenix Camp guards enter, he immediately pounced forward, "Quick … Quick, call Niece Wu Zhi over … I'm about to be beaten to death!"
"You are … Elder Wu Tongtian?"
One of the Fire Phoenix Guards recognized Wu Tongtian, but he did not go forward to help him up. Instead, he looked straight ahead and bowed to Wu Ming first, "Family Head!"
"En! Since he wants to see Wu Zhi, go and send him! "
Wu Ming did not stop writing as he spoke casually.
Not long later, Wu Zhi, who had changed into a lady's attire, hurried over with a graceful look on his face.
"Niece! Niece! "
Wu Tongtian pounced forward as if he had seen his savior, "Look at that son of the Wu Family, he wants to beat me to death!"
"And your two younger brothers, one is half dead, and the other's head is hanging there! You have to seek justice for us! "
"Uncle, you must be joking!"
Wu Zhi waved his palace robe, walked into the hall, and rubbed Wu Ming, "I am the wife of the Wu Family, how can I interfere if my husband wants to punish you?"
"You?!"
Wu Tongtian could not breathe, and his eyes rolled back as he fainted directly.
"Carry him away! Don't attract attention here and spoil the mood! "
Seeing that Wu Ming did not speak, Wu Zhi could not help but speak indifferently.
"Yes!"
Wu Tiehu's admiration for Wu Ming reached its peak. He immediately ordered the soldiers to drag the two people away, and the Fiery Phoenix Guards automatically went forward to clean the ground. Soon, everything returned to normal, and there was not even a trace of the smell of blood.
"My husband's calligraphy is good!"
Wu Zhi did not seem to mind that he had killed one person and punished two people, both of whom were disciples of the Wu Family. Instead, his attention was attracted by Wu Ming's calligraphy.
"… Blessed lands may be fifty kilometers or five hundred kilometers in radius, with the benefits of the four seasons and the changes of the weather. However, there is no sun or moon, no stars …"
"… Rumor has it that there is a paradise in the Cyclic Astral Palace. At night, the sky is filled with stars, and it is a majestic sight. The disciples live and multiply, and the population gathers, forming a city with tens of thousands of people …"
Wu Zhi was originally attracted by Wu Ming's calligraphy, but soon, he was shocked by the content of the calligraphy, and he could no longer move his eyes away.
"… Those who read it in the future will also be moved by its elegance, and gradually understand the true Dao of the world. Only those who have transcended."
Wu Ming wrote very quickly, but every word was neat and tidy. He used regular script, horizontal and vertical, very clear, and very comfortable to look at.
After adding the last sentence, Wu Zhi slowly let out a long breath. Looking around, he saw that it was almost dusk, and he could not help but smile. "Reading a good essay is like drinking wine, and it is really satisfying. May I know the name of this essay?"
"This is called 'Unfettered Travels', and it was written by a loose cultivator called Unfettered Master. He had a wide circle of friends, and his lifetime's experience …"
Wu Ming blew on the last page. "After this book is written, I want to hide it in the Wu Family's library for my descendants!"
"Blessed lands …" Wu Zhi murmured.
Even in the Wu Family, there were only a few records about these two things, and they were passed down by word of mouth.
However, she did not expect that her husband had already begun to come into contact with such things. This was not to be underestimated. This was the foundation of a family!
Without this accumulation, no matter how rich the family was, in the eyes of others, it was just a nouveau riche.
"With this book … I have almost finished writing the esoteric teachings …"
Wu Ming threw away the brush, but a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. "Finally, there is the Yuqing Taoist Method. What reason should I find to send it to Wu Qing? But she has already guessed that I am a Samsara traveler, so I don't need to give any reason, right? "
"What are you thinking about, husband?"
Perhaps it was the unique intuition of a wife, when Wu Ming was slightly distracted and thinking about another woman, Wu Zhi's eyes that could speak looked over.
"Ahem …"
Wu Ming coughed twice, "I am thinking, what I did today, I will not make things difficult for you, right?"
"Husband, you have already done it. Why do you ask me?"
Wu Zhi seemed to be a little resentful, but she was an extremely intelligent woman, so she did not dwell on this issue. She said directly, "It just so happens that I want to reform my family. This generation has to be punished, so it is not a big deal …"
Speaking of this, she finally had a bit of a decisive general's aura, "Not only did they occupy the land and ruin the reputation of my family, but they even communicated with the foreign vassal states and tried to overthrow me … Hehe, it seems that the teachers in the Wu Family's private school should be replaced. Didn't they teach them the principle of what to attach to when the skin is gone?"
"How can people who are blinded by greed be judged by common sense?"
Wu Ming shrugged his shoulders, "Don't they dare to be so arrogant in front of me?"
"That is because you did not tell outsiders at all, okay?"
Wu Zhi returned to the appearance of a little girl and rolled her eyes, "If they know that you are a Taoist Master, who would dare to be presumptuous?"
Unlike Wu Zhi, Wu Ming's great power belonged to himself, but he did not care about the change of secular power.
This was only for his level, and it was even more so for Earth Deities and Heaven Deities.
I will close the blessed land and be free on my own, why would I care how many emperors have changed in the human world?
In this Shang Dynasty's chaos mission, if not for the Twelve Gold Men, Wu Ming estimated that a Level Six Great Medium would not have appeared. It was probably an Earth Deity like Yu Qing who had too deep entanglements and could not get rid of it, so he would jump up and down. He would probably lose face as an Earth Deity and be laughed at by his peers for a long time.
"Huh? Speaking of which, Sister Wu Qing is going to the Yu Qing Dao Sect to study after the New Year! She is talented and is already a Taoist Master. Who can be her teacher? She might have to enter the blessed land and ask an Earth Deity to teach her personally … "
"Yu Qing I has the Earth Deity Fruit and has a lifespan of a thousand years. If there is no external calamity, he should be able to live to this day. Tsk tsk … Unfortunately, I have seen his luck. Although he used Ji Yi's True Dragon Aura to cultivate to an Earth Deity, he was tricked so badly that he probably has no hope of becoming a Heaven Deity …"
Wu Ming hid it well this time. He coughed lightly and said, "Madam … it's late …"
Wu Zhi answered in a low voice, and two red clouds appeared on his face.
…
Crack!
Accompanied by heavy snow, the five years of peace finally came to an end.
"Half a cup of Tu Su has not been raised yet, the grass in front of the lamp writes a peach talisman …"
Five years of peace, the night of the New Year.
Wu Ming stood at the highest point of the Wu Family Fortress and leaned against the railing. Behind him, Wu Zhi, Wu Qing, and even Li Xiuyun, who was hiding in a corner, were all in the banquet. The people were cheering and jumping in joy. They also burned wood and bamboo to drive away the Tai Sui. Every family was reunited and it was a happy and harmonious scene.
"Five years of peace have passed. Next will be six years of peace. Wu Qing has to cultivate Dao, Wu Zhi has to reorganize the two counties and clean up the family affairs. Even I have to travel far away and wait for an opportunity to deal with the remnants of the Blood Pact … What a troubled time!"
Wu Ming suddenly sighed and immediately put on a smile. He quickly blended into the hustle and bustle below …
