LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 3 God's Stone Mountain
The next day, the rain stopped
Wang Ge didn't rush to hurry, he had to wait for the sun to come out and dry the muddy road, so that everyone could travel easily.
Although he was still staying in the isolated village, the dream last night made Wang Ge feel uncomfortable.
After thinking about it for a while, he touched his neck and couldn't help thinking:
"My dream, is it something that happened in this village? This village was once slaughtered by King Wu's army?"
A few years ago, the world was still in chaos.
Among several vassal forces, King Wu is the most powerful. Not only is King Wu himself known as the "Land Martial God", his own martial arts cultivation is extremely terrifying, and his army is also a brave and skilled tiger and wolf division.
Facing any prince, King Wu and his army are crushed.
However, although King Wu is powerful, he is self-willed and does not show benevolence and righteousness. It is not uncommon to see cities slaughtered and surrendered.
Even Wang Ge, who was imprisoned in the capital since he was a child, has heard of King Wu's brutal name.
"However, the massacre of the village by the army happened in my dream. In reality, this village may not necessarily be deserted because of the massacre."
Wang Ge complained in his heart, he didn't regard the dream as reality and something really happened, he just thought the dream was weird.
However, at noon, Wang Ge began to doubt.
Because he learned from most of the accompanying people that they had similar dreams last night!
They were all in this village, they were all killed by the army, and they were all under the banner of King Wu!
It is a coincidence that one person has a dream, but it is not a coincidence that a group of people have the same dream.
In particular, some people also found headless bones from the village that had been hacked with knives and axes. These details are confirmed by the dream!
"Is the dream real? Is this a dream entrusted by someone? Who entrusted it?"
The word "ghost" popped up in Wang Ge's mind instantly.
Those grieving ghosts who died under the butcher knife of King Wu's army!
"No, no, is this world haunted?" Wang Ge felt strange.
Because he was under house arrest in the capital since he was a child, he has limited access to information, even reading books.
Apart from knowing that there are powerful martial arts in this world, Wang Ge didn't pay much attention to the rumors about gods and ghosts among the people.
After all, it’s all superstition, and no one has actually seen gods and ghosts in reality, leaving evidence, and there is no official announcement to prove it, so naturally it cannot be taken seriously.
But what happened last night made Wang Ge suspicious:
"Could it be that I used to sit and watch the sky?"
Feeling a little uneasy, Wang Ge went to ask the guard Yan Fei.
"Dream? I didn't dream last night." Yan Fei shook his head.
This confused Wang Ge. He then asked the other accompanying guards, and found that as long as he was good at martial arts, the guards with strong blood didn't dream last night.
"What's going on here?"
Wang Ge was puzzled and told Yan Fei about the situation.
However, this well-informed and martial arts guard also feels confused:
"Young master, I have never heard of such a weird thing before."
Yan Fei frowned, feeling unbelievable.
Seeing this, Wang Ge was even more confused. Are there ghosts in this world? Or is there no ghost?
But Wang Ge didn't dwell on it for too long. At Chenshi, the sun broke through the clouds and the weather became scorching hot.
In the afternoon, Wang Ge reckoned that the muddy road should have been dried by the sun, so he asked everyone to continue on the road.
Since you don't understand this kind of ghostly thing, then just stay away from it!
The Fifteenth Day of Leaving That Weird and Isolated Village
Sure enough, after leaving, Wang Ge and others never had such a weird dream again, and their team hurried, and finally came to a land of fish and rice——Xiangyin County
This is already Wang Ge's fiefdom.
The kings of the King of Yue are all "Guicheng", and there are two counties in the fief, namely Xiang County and Miao County. There are 19 counties under the two counties.
Among them, Xiang County is relatively rich, with 7 counties including Xiangyin County, with a large population, developed agriculture, dense river network, convenient water transportation, and direct access to the East China Sea.
In Miao County, there are many uncivilized and desolate areas, with a small population, many mountains, rugged roads, and overgrown bushes. There are often fierce beasts and poisonous snakes, and even barbarian tribes harass the border.
Entering his own fiefdom, Wang Ge was a little bit worried and finally let go of half.
As for the other half, Wang Ge doesn't know how he will face the bureaucrats in the capital.
"Those people are the power team left by my cheap daddy."
The vassal king has a lot of power. In the fiefdom, the appointment and removal of officials, military command, taxation and coinage are all in the hands of the vassal king.
The vassal king is the king, the lord of a country, and there are hundreds of civil and military officials under the king.
That is to say, after Wang Ge returned to the capital, he would face the old Yue King's prime ministers, Taiwei and Sikong.
These three are responsible for government affairs, military affairs, and supervisory power respectively. If Wang Ge wants to take over his fiefdom, he must deal with these three people.
To be honest, Wang Ge still has no idea in his heart.
As a time traveler, he also knows about such things as "power overhead". Who knows if these three people have evil intentions?
After all, Wang Ge has been under house arrest in Kyoto since he was a child, and has never had contact with these three people.
"At this time, can I only hope that their loyalty to the old Yue King will continue to me? Or is it that my cheap father made arrangements before his death?"
Wang Ge felt helpless, these things were beyond his control.
He is also rushing ducks to the shelves.
But fortunately, Wang Ge has already entered his fief, and he is not in a hurry to return to Guicheng immediately.
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be the officials who came to welcome the king. How can the king depend on the officials' faces?
So Wang Ge stayed in Xiangyin County, waiting to see the attitude of civil and military officials.
During the waiting time, Wang Ge first arranged for thousands of people to accompany him, and he himself took the guards to the most famous "Shenshi Mountain" in Xiangyin County.
This mountain got its name because there is a strange stone on the cliff facing north.
The shape is like a poultry egg, smooth and round, three feet six feet five inches high, two feet four feet round, and nine orifices and eight holes.
The appearance is quite strange, like a hill.
Over time, the legend of "Sacred Stone" has spread here in Xiangyin County.
To say that this strange stone is absolutely extraordinary, it must be left by the gods!
Because of the miraculous nature of the strange stone, gradually some people began to worship the sacred stone, such as praying for rain, marriage, funeral, and enlistment.
If you have nothing to do, come to the mountain to worship, what if it is really useful?
The legend of the sacred stone has been circulating in the local area for more than two hundred years.
Wang Ge also knew the local legends, so he just found it interesting, and he was also quite curious about how strange this sacred stone is. The parameters of this stone are actually very similar to a fairy tale in his Blue Star hometown.
And because the surrounding area of Shenshi Mountain is clean, Wang Ge plans to go up to the mountain to practice martial arts during the day, and live in a homestay at the foot of the mountain at night.
At the same time, they are waiting for the reaction of all civil and military officials in the capital.
"Anyway, the worst outcome is that this group of people has two minds and plans to empty me, or even put me under house arrest. Then I will report to the central government, let the central government send troops to clean up the ministers, and then let the central government send officials to take over Yuedi. Emperor Xuan should be Glad it happened."
Although Wang Ge is very weak, he is not without the means to die together.
With such confidence, Wang Ge patiently stayed near Shenshi Mountain.
