"That's wrong! He is obviously a weak and mute beggar. How could he have such great arm strength to hand me such a heavy sword? And he pulled it so hard that he couldn't move? There must be something weird in this!"

Duan Hong turned around and entered the temple. He saw that the temple was empty. There were no mute beggars anywhere. Only the shiny bronze statue of Wu Xiu stood in the center of the temple.

"It's broad daylight, have I seen a ghost? Or is the spirit of "Bingjianhou" General Wu Xiu appearing?"

I weighed this large knife weighing more than 80 kilograms in my hand. It was indeed the real thing!

"Senior, who is that master? Duan wants to meet him!"

The loud voice echoed in the temple, but there was no echo.

He turned around and ran outside the temple, but there was still no one. Looking at the inconspicuous black sword of unknown material in his hand, Duan Hong thought to himself: "I hope this is not a piece of scrap metal, otherwise I will eat it when I start working on it later."

What a big loss!”

Thinking of this, Duan Hong started dancing the big sword in the yard. The dance was in the whistling wind. The more he danced, the smoother he became and the faster he danced. The wind of the knife made a sound, and the big knife seemed to have recognized its new owner, emitting joyful sounds.

Shouts of joy.

There was a stone lion on the left and right sides of the temple entrance with teeth and claws, and a ferocious face. Duan Hong wanted to try this knife, so he slashed a stone lion head-on.

With a sound of "swish!", the blade passed by and split the stone lion in half like cutting tofu. The cross section was as smooth as a mirror!

What a fast sword! It’s actually a precious sword!

Duan Hong looked at the sword in his hand and was overjoyed. At this moment, he suddenly felt numbness in his vest, then his eyes went dark and he passed out.

The old beggar appeared next to Duan Hong, shook his head and said with a smile: "Boy, your arm strength is indeed good, but it's a pity that you don't know any martial arts. This knife is no better than chopping firewood. If I really let you go, it's not a rush."

Go and kill someone? With your loyalty and courage, I, the best swordsman in the world, You Tianxing, will accept you as my successor!"

After saying that, he leaned over and grabbed Duan Hong's belt. With a slight lift, Duan Hong's huge body was lifted up by him like a chicken.

The next moment, You Tianxing's body swayed, and disappeared into the woods like a horse flying in the sky...

The sun and the moon fly by, and time flies by. In the blink of an eye, seven years have passed.

The imperial capital, Leiyue City, is within the imperial city.

In the palace, there are majestic pavilions, pink walls, yellow tiles and red pillars, layers of pavilions, pavilions and pool shadows. The curtain beads are hanging crystal clear, twinkling in the wind, radiating colorful brilliance. Rockeries, strange rocks, small bridges and flowing water are all magnificent.

, imperial style.

In the northeast corner of the palace compound, there is the "Moxiangzhai", which is an imperial academy. It is a place dedicated to the children of the emperor's relatives to study and read. This place is remote and very quiet. The flowers in the yard are in full bloom, and the clusters of flowers are very beautiful.

.

Next to the academy, there is a circular building made of huge stones, called the "Beast Garden". The Beast Garden was originally a place where rare and exotic animals were raised, specially for the emperor to appreciate. After the death of the late emperor, the great eunuch Guo Bin

So this place was transformed into a "man-animal arena", and a meeting was held every month. Dozens of prisoners were put into the zoo, and then three white-fronted tigers that had been starved for three days were released. If any prisoner could get away with it,

He escaped from the tiger's mouth and was released on the spot.

The two highnesses were young, so how could there be any distinction between good and evil? Whenever they saw prisoners being torn alive by tigers, with blood splattering on them, they would always clap their little hands and laugh, never getting tired of it.

It was close to noon. In the "Moxiang Zhai", more than thirty royal children had finished class, and then twenty young carrots of similar age, all seven or eight years old, poured in. All of them were eunuchs.

Dressed up, with an innocent smile on his face.

After playing around for a while, the children all sat down in their seats. A middle-aged eunuch walked in slowly. He was holding a cane and knocked on the desk. All the twenty little eunuchs looked at each other.

Respectfully, there was silence in the room for a moment.

The middle-aged eunuch glanced at the children with satisfied eyes, then coughed twice and said seriously: "Now let's repeat the daily required lessons."

"Who is your most loyal lord?"

"It's the chief steward Guo Bin who is nine thousand years old!" the children shouted in unison.

"What has the emperor ever praised?"

"The emperor said that the chief steward, Eunuch Guo, is his father, and the second steward, Eunuch Li, is his mother!"

"Who are you going to sacrifice your life for anytime, anywhere?"

"It's the chief steward Guo Bin who is nine thousand years old!"

"Well, good!"

Suddenly, a "little eunuch" jumped up on his desk. He had a sly look on his face, his two big eyes were darting around, his hands were pinching his waist, and he coughed twice in a serious manner.

The little guy pointed to the sky and shouted: "Who is your boss?"

"Little Overlord Guo Xuanwu!"

"Do you listen to your parents or me?"

"Little Overlord Guo Xuanwu!"

"What's our slogan?"

"Make trouble! Make trouble!"

Then there was a burst of laughter, and the little carrots all left their seats, jumping up and down, and making noisy noises. How could it still look like a school?

Guo Xuanwu has grown to seven years old. With his clever little mind and knowledge from his previous life, he has become a veritable king of children in the palace compound. He enjoys all the glory and wealth. As for the eunuchs and not the eunuchs, they have long been forgotten.

Went.

Instead of being angry, the middle-aged eunuch holding the cane had a flattering look on his face and whispered softly: "Hey, my little ancestor, please restrain yourself. You understand today's lesson."

Are you ready? Could you please control your little brothers so that they can complete this lesson?"

Guo Xuanwu crossed his little arms, held his cheeks, stared up at the sky for a moment, and then said in a strange voice: "Tsk! What kind of course is it? It's not the same thing after repeated over and over again? What is it that our eunuchs will have a dictatorship in the future and film the emperor's old man?

Only in this way can we reward each other, pursue private interests, be greedy if we can, the more the better!"

Immediately afterwards, he recited the following words: "A county magistrate is placed outside, with an annual salary of "two thousand dan". The actual salary is 1,440 dan, 120 dan per month. To buy an official position, one needs fifty kilograms of gold; for the position of minister, the annual salary is "two thousand dan".

"Five thousand shi" means actual pay of 3,600 shi, 300 shi per month, and buying an official position requires 300 kilograms of gold; the position of Zhonglang in the Royal Forest Army is a low- to middle-level official, with an annual salary of "six hundred shi", but because he is under the emperor

So to buy an official position, you need two hundred catties of gold. Oh, there are too many, I can’t finish them!”

After taking a breath, Guo Xuanwu added: "The most valuable thing is the group of white deer raised in the Forbidden Palace Garden. They use a square foot of white deer skin and embroider it with colorful dragon-shaped patterns on the four sides. They are called "skin coins."

.A leather coin is priced at "400,000 yuan". When kings, marquises, royals, etc., visit each other or participate in sacrificial ceremonies and present gifts or tributes, they must be placed on a gold plate, which is called "

"Recommended Bi", and it is stipulated that a "leather coin" must be placed, which means it needs to be purchased with 400,000 yuan before it can be presented as tribute. These are the emperor's private money!"
