Chapter 348
348 Chapter 348-continuous fusion
As soon as Xia Pingan opened his eyes, he found himself walking on a bustling Street. The street was full of people and vehicles. The buildings on the street had cornice and arches. Listening to the people talking on the street, he could hear a strong Henan accent, which made him feel very close to them.
In addition, there were two bailiffs in black clothes with sabers hanging from their waists following him. The pedestrians on the surrounding streets looked at him with a hint of awe.
Was this the Luo Yang of Emperor Guangwu?
Xia Pingan looked at the buildings and local customs on the side of the street, and such a thought came to his mind.
That’s right, the realm Pearl he had fused with was the realm Pearl of the ‘neck of Vajra’. His current identity was Dong Xuan. At this moment, Dong Xuan was the Luoyang token, which meant that he was the local governor of Luoyang.
One could tell just by looking at the buildings on both sides of the street. The city was filled with all kinds of government offices, Taicang, military warehouses, and markets. There were also mansions of high officials and Noble people. In Luoyang, there were many wealthy merchants and relatives of the royal family. There were many who had eyes in the sky. It wasn’t that easy to make a good Luoyang order.
Just as Xia Pingan was looking at the scenery on the street, at the corner of the street in front of him, a young man dressed in a bailiff’s uniform ran over, panting and his face flushed red.
As soon as the bailiff turned the corner, he saw Xia ping ‘an, who was patrolling the street. Without thinking, he rushed towards Xia ping’ an. He didn’t even have time to take a break before he quickly reported.
reporting to Your Excellency! Oh no! Oh no! There’s bad news! There’s a murder on the street of Chongwen square in front of us!
Xia Pingan said, ” it’s here!
“How dare someone kill someone on the street! Quickly take me to see Qianqian!”
“Yes!”
The bailiff turned around and jogged, leading Xia ping ‘an in the direction of Chongwen square.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Luoyang had already developed a prosperous atmosphere. from east to west, six li, 11 steps. From north to south, Nine Li, 100 steps. the entire urban area of the city was already about ten square kilometers. It was divided into twelve city gates. On both sides of each city gate, there were two majestic palaces that could be seen even from the city. The Urban area was divided into several rectangular or square-shaped inner squares.
Under the lead of the bailiff, Xia ping ‘an walked as if he was flying. In just a few minutes, he had arrived at Chongwen square where the incident had happened.
The streets were surrounded by a group of commoners. They were all here to watch the show, but because someone had died, they didn’t dare to come over. They only watched from afar and discussed animatedly. There were also people who had expressions of fear on their faces. Many of the commoners who passed by didn’t even dare to look, covering their eyes and quickly walking past.
A man carrying a pole lay on the side of the street, blood flowing all over the ground. The dried fruits carried by the pole were also scattered all over the ground.
Two bailiffs were standing at the side to maintain order. When they saw Xia ping ‘an walking over with big strides, they heaved a sigh of relief.
When Xia Pingan arrived, he went straight to the man on the ground and squatted down to take a look. The man on the ground was in his 30s and looked like a fruit seller. His face was full of vicissitudes of life. Due to blood loss, his face and lips were a little pale. There were two fatal wounds on the man’s body, one on his neck and the other on the right side of his chest. Looking at the wounds, he should have been killed by a sharp weapon like a knife or sword.
“What’s going on here? who is this person? why was he killed?” Xia ping ‘an stood up and asked the two bailiffs who were guarding the place.
reporting to my Lord, this person is called li Xiaoman. He’s a commoner in Chong Wen Lane and makes a living by selling preserved fruits. According to the surrounding commoners, when Li Man was carrying a pole on the street, a man whipped his horse and galloped on the street, knocking over li Xiaoman’s pole. Li Xiaoman refused to comply and grabbed that man’s horse. However, he did not expect that man to be so rude and unreasonable. He beat him up as soon as he got off his horse. The two of them were entangled for a while before that man pulled out the knife at his waist and killed li Xiaoman. Then, he rode away on his horse. A few of us were patrolling here just now. I saw that there were people gathering here, so I rushed over here.”
he dared to kill someone in the city in broad daylight. Who is the murderer? ” Xia ping ‘an said angrily.
according to the neighbors, the person who killed the man was Princess Huyang’s Cang TOU. After the man killed the man, some people saw him running to the princess’s Manor to take a walk. when the bailiff spoke of Princess Huyang, his voice unconsciously lowered. He looked at Xia ping ‘an with some uneasiness and carefully observed Xia ping’ an’s expression.
Princess Hu Yang, who in Luoyang didn’t know? she was the emperor’s blood sister. Before the Emperor ascended the throne, she had lived with the Emperor. Even the Emperor had to give way to her. This Cang TOU by Princess Hu Yang’s side had killed someone. Who would dare to catch him?
Xia ping ‘an knew that the ” Cang TOU ” that the bailiff spoke of was equivalent to a servant and attendant in the Han Dynasty. Those who could ride horses in the city and carry knives were the people favored by Princess Huyang. They were not ordinary servants.
“Call the neighbors who saw the murder here, I’ll ask them myself!”
“Yes!”
A few bailiffs called over the neighbors who had witnessed the incident. Xia Pingan personally asked them about the incident and the identity and appearance of the murderer. The murderer was Cang TOU, who was always by Princess Huyang’s side.
After getting a bailiff to inform the family of the victim to collect the corpse, Xia ping ‘an did not say a word. He turned around and led his men back to the government office.
Xia ping ‘an, who had returned to the government office, followed the procedure and signed the arrest warrant. He asked the head of the government office to bring people to Princess Hu Yang’s residence to arrest the murderer, while he sat in the government office and waited.
A few hours later, the head constable of the government office and a few others came back with depressed expressions. Naturally, they did not bring the murderer with them.
my Lord, when we arrived at Princess Hu Yang’s Manor, we knocked on the door and explained our intentions. The guards at the manor immediately chased us away and even scolded us. They even threw out the arrest warrant signed by my Lord and did not let us in at all! The head of the class in the Yamen lowered his head and said, his face ashamed.
“Alright, I understand. Thank you for your hard work!”
“This subordinate is incompetent!”
This matter was within his expectations, and Xia ping ‘an was not in a hurry. Instead, he consoled the bailiffs who were out on a mission and said generously, ” a life for a life, it is only right and proper. As the Luoyang order, I must uphold justice for the people of Luoyang. No matter who that person is close to Princess Huyang, I must kill that person. That person can’t hide in Princess Huyang’s Manor forever. Princess Huyang likes to tour, and every time Princess Huyang travels, she always brings the gray-haired man with her. I estimate that in a few days, Princess Hu Yang will definitely go out for a tour. From now on, send someone to keep an eye on Princess Hu Yang’s residence. As long as Princess Hu Yang goes out for a tour and brings that person out of the princess’s residence, you will immediately inform me!”
The class Chiefs in this Manor were all local tyrants of Luoyang. They didn’t have the ability or courage to barge into the princess’s Manor, but it wasn’t difficult for them to keep an eye on every move in the princess’s Manor.
A few bailiffs had a stomach full of anger in the princess’s Manor. They were already angry in their hearts, but when they saw Xia ping ‘an wanting to severely punish Cang TOU, who had killed people in Princess Huyang’s Manor, they bowed and accepted the order. They patted their chests in front of Xia ping’ an and promised that as long as that person dared to leave the princess’s Manor, ” Sir Dong ” would know.
Xia ping ‘an was waiting in the government office, taking the time to sharpen the Han sword he was wearing so that it could reflect a person.
Seeing Xia Pingan sharpening his sword, the bailiffs were even more motivated.
This wait lasted for five days.
On the morning of the fifth day, a bailiff quickly rushed to the government office to report that Princess Hu Yang had gone out today with a large number of followers. The Cang head who had killed a few days ago had also followed Princess Hu Yang out of the princess’s Manor.
“All the class Chiefs and bailiffs, follow me to capture the murderer!” Xia ping ‘an shouted in the court. He put the sharpened han sword on his waist and took the lead, striding out of the mansion.
Seeing that their officer was so powerful, none of the bailiffs in the government office backed down. They all shouted and brought their clubs and swords. More than ten people followed Xia Pingan out of the door valiantly and spiritedly.
......
Half an hour later, on the streets of Luoyang, Xia Pingan stopped the carriage of Princess Hu Yang and her party.
Seeing Princess Huyang’s carriage approaching, Xia Pingan stood in front of the carriage and took out the Han sword in his hand. He drew a line on the street in front of him, and the tip of the sword rubbed against the stone slabs on the ground, causing sparks to fly. Xia Pingan shouted, ” Luoyang has issued a warrant for the arrest of the murderer. Anyone who dares to cross this line and crash into the government office will be considered an accomplice of the murderer and will be killed without mercy!
Xia ping ‘an’s’ kill ‘was really full of murderous intent.
Seeing the Luoyang token coldly staring at him with a sword in hand and a large group of bailiffs standing in front, the coachman who was driving Princess Hu Yang’s carriage broke out in a cold sweat and quickly pulled the carriage to a stop.
Dong Xuan, how dare you stop my carriage! the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing the face of a woman who was exuding an air of arrogance and arrogance. Princess Hu Yang glared at Xia ping ‘an, ” what are you trying to do? are you trying to rebel? ”
Xia ping ‘an’s eyes swept across the cangs on the horses behind Princess Hu Yang. Sure enough, he saw a man’s expression change. That man’s appearance was exactly the same as the murderer described by the previous witnesses. From his expression and appearance, that man was the murderer.
Princess Hu Yang, as a relative of the royal family, you don’t know how to uphold the laws of the great Han Dynasty. Instead, you cover up for the head of heaven in your residence to kill, harm the people, and trample on the laws of the great Han Dynasty. Today, I, Dong Xuan, will let you know what the laws of the great Han Dynasty are! Xia ping ‘an spoke righteously and loudly. Princess Hu Yang’s expression changed and she choked on her words. Xia ping’ an pointed the Han sword in his hand at the princess’s residence’s Cang TOU and shouted, ” you, get off the horse!
Cang TOU, who had killed the man, was already feeling guilty. When he heard Xia Pingan’s shout, a murderous aura rushed towards him. The horse under him was startled and stepped back. The man was so frightened that he fell off the horse. Xia Pingan rushed over and before the man could get up, he cut off his head with his sword and killed him on the street.
ah! the surrounding people were shocked.
...
Seeing Xia ping ‘an kill her own head in the street, Princess Hu Yang’s face was pale with fear. She screamed and immediately hid in the car.
“Dong Xuan, just you wait! I’m not done with you!” Princess Hu Yang shouted hysterically in the carriage. She turned the carriage around and left from the other side.
go and report to li Xiaoman’s family. The murderer who killed li Xiaoman has been killed by me. A life for a life. The case is closed! Xia Pingan ordered the bailiff beside him to inform the family of the victim.
“Yes!” The bailiff looked at Xia ping ‘an with admiration and then went to report to the family of the victim.
Not long after Xia ping ‘an returned to the government office, the family of the victim, li Xiaoman-his parents, wife, and two children-personally came to the government office with tears streaming down their faces. They kowtowed to Xia ping’ an and thanked her for her kindness.
As soon as li Xiaoman’s family left, a eunuch came to the government office with an imperial edict. The Emperor had ordered Dong Xuan to enter the palace for an audience.
Xia ping ‘an tidied up his clothes and followed the eunuch into the palace.
......
In the Imperial garden, Princess Hu Yang was sobbing in front of a man in an Imperial robe.
“Xuanji, uncle Wen, that day, you had not become the Emperor and our family was in decline. I was the only one taking care of my mother. I had to worry about everything inside and outside the family. I have suffered all kinds of hardships, but I still have to worry about you every day. Originally, I thought that I would have a few good days if you became the Emperor. Now that you are the Emperor, I am being bullied in the streets. I don’t have to be a Princess. Wuwuwuwuwu Xuanji”
Liu Xiu looked at his elder sister helplessly and said, ” elder sister, don’t worry. I’ve already sent someone to get Dong Xuan to see me. I’ll definitely avenge you today!
...
......
In a Pavilion in the garden of the Imperial Palace, Xia ping ‘an saw Emperor Guangwu, Liu Xiu, and Princess Huyang, who was wiping her tears and glaring at him.
Emperor Guangwu, Liu Xiu, had a handsome face and sharp eyes. When he saw Xia ping ‘an, Liu Xiu’s face darkened immediately. Dong Xuan, how dare you crash into Princess Huyang’s carriage! Men, take Dong Xuan out and behead him!
“If your Majesty wants to kill me, it’s naturally easy. However, can you let me say something before you kill me?” Xia Pingan said calmly.
“Alright, what do you have to say?”
“Your Majesty has restored the great Han Dynasty to its former glory, and you have become the ruler of a generation. However, Your Majesty has allowed the slaves to kill the people and trample on the laws of the great Han Dynasty. I don’t need Your Majesty to kill me. I request to take my own life, ” Xia Pingan said loudly. He gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and ran into a pillar in the pavilion. His face was covered in blood.
Liu Xiu’s expression changed drastically, and he quickly ordered the eunuch beside him to hold Xia Pingan back.
Liu Xiu glanced at Princess Hu Yang and sighed softly, ” today, as long as you kowtow to Princess Hu Yang and apologize, I will let you go and forget about this matter!
“I don’t know what to do. Why should I apologize to Princess Hu Yang?” Xia Pingan straightened his neck and refused to obey.
When Princess Hu Yang saw this, she didn’t expect that Dong Xuan would refuse to even apologize. This was simply too embarrassing for her. She sobbed at the side, ” when uncle Wen was still a commoner, he was able to protect the people around him and made the officials not dare to enter the door to arrest people. Today, uncle Wen has become the Emperor, but you can’t even control a Luoyang decree? ”
Liu Xiu had no choice but to give a look to the guards of the yellow gate beside him. A few eunuchs of the yellow gate immediately rushed over and grabbed Xia ping ‘an’s hand. They pressed Xia ping’ an’s neck and body and pressed his head to the ground, forcing him to bow his head and kowtow to Princess Huyang as an apology.
Xia ping ‘an’s entire body tensed up, allowing the eunuchs to press him with all their strength. He did not lower his head or bend his neck.
Seeing that Xia ping ‘an could not lower his head and admit his mistake, Liu Xiu spread out his hands to Princess Huyang and said, ” sister, this man is Xiang Qiang. He is a strong Xiang Ling. He is neither afraid of death nor will he lower his head. His neck is so tough that even if I am the Emperor, I can’t do anything to him!
Princess Hu Yang was also helpless when she saw this situation. She could only leave with a flick of her sleeve.
After Princess Hu Yang left, Liu Xiu looked at Xia ping ‘an and smiled. He gave Xia ping’ an 300000 Yuan and asked the yellow gate to send him out of the palace.
As soon as he stepped out of the palace, the world of the realm Pearl shattered.
......
In the room, Xia Pingan opened his eyes and let out a long breath. It had been a long time since he had fused with a realm bead. This feeling of divine power filling his body was really nostalgic.
This realm Pearl had increased the divine power in his secret mandala by 42 points. Now, the upper limit of the secret mandala’s divine power had reached 5798 points.
In addition to the increase in his divine power, Xia Pingan also obtained a divine skill, ” neck of diamond.
Xia Pingan used up 10 points of divine power to cast the ” neck of King Kong ” on himself. He felt his neck warm up, and the blessing was complete. He touched his neck, but it felt the same. His neck did not feel stiff at all.
Xia Pingan thought for a moment, then took out a knife from the spatial warehouse and directly chopped at his own neck.
“Clang! Clang!” A crisp sound rang out.
Xia Pingan only felt a slight shock on his neck, but he didn’t even lose a hair. The knife that was aimed at his neck was parried, and the blade even had a hole the size of a rice grain.
A smile appeared on Xia ping ‘an’s face. This ” neck of diamond ” was indeed useful. During a fight, he could cast one on himself, and the vital parts of his neck, which were the most afraid of being attacked, would be completely immune to attacks. This realm Pearl was good. He had to thank Lord Dong Xuan, his strong suit, for leaving such a realm Pearl for future generations.
It didn’t take long to integrate this realm Pearl. Xia Pingan then took out the realm Pearl of the ‘debate of haoliang’ and continued to integrate it.
The realm Pearl of the debate of haoliang was the famous debate between Zhuang Zi and Keiko on the bridge in haoshui where they watched the fish in the river,”if the fish is not the child, he knows the fish’s happiness.”
For those who knew this story, it was even easier to merge with this realm Pearl.
In just two minutes, the realm Pearl had completely fused with Xia Pingan’s Secret mandala. The upper limit of Xia Pingan’s divine power had increased by 20 points, reaching 5818.
After fusing the two realm beads, Xia Pingan took out the ” divine Thunder realm bead ” that was flashing with lightning and started to fuse it.
Few people knew that the reason why King Wuyi’s realm Pearl could summon the divine Thunder was that King Wuyi had used an incredible method to summon the divine Thunder from the heavens to strike his own Kasaya.
In the history of Huaxia, there were all kinds of ridiculous emperors, but King Wuyi was the only one in the world who could summon the divine Thunder to kill himself. He was the first person in history to court death.
Just a few minutes ago, he had been a village that had learned from nature and the great way. But this ” divine Thunder realm Pearl ” wanted Xia ping ‘an to be the opposite of the village. He wanted to be King Wuyi, who went against heaven everywhere.
It was quite a coincidence that these two realm pearls could merge together.
......
Xia ping ‘an was quickly wrapped in a cocoon of light that flashed with electricity.
......
In the realm Pearl, Xia ping ‘an opened his eyes and saw a eunuch standing respectfully in front of him. my Lord, the craftsman you were looking for has been found.
......
The 5000-word chapter was sent over, and the second chapter was a little late today!
