The more chaotic the world is, the more disciples there are in the Beggar Clan. Although the power is not necessarily strong, the number of disciples in the Clan is undoubtedly one of the best in the world.
Su Cheng had previously taken action to help the Beggar Clan avoid a major chaos, and later allowed the Beggar Clan to set up a branch in Huayin County, so the news about Dadu was quickly sent back.
"The Ruyang Palace was ordered by Emperor Yuan Shun to wipe out the various rebel armies in the south as soon as possible..."
After reading the information from the Beggar Clan, I gained a better understanding of the situation in the world. Today, the entire world is still generally under the control of Yuanting, but the southeast is full of rebels from all walks of life.
Another point is that the reason why Yuanting is so powerful is that it is difficult to eliminate the rebels from all over the country. The most important thing is that Yuanting is deeply involved in internal fighting, and no one pays attention to those rebels.
It can be said that if there was no internal fighting in Yuanting, it would be very easy to deal with the rebels in various places. However, within Yuanting, the imperial party, the rear party, the princelings, the clan, foreign ministers, and local forces all fought hard.
They fight to the death, and even send experts to assassinate each other.
Since the death of Kublai Khan and before Emperor Yuan Shun came to the throne, nine emperors have been replaced in just thirty-nine years. From this, we can know how cruel the internal strife in Yuanting is, even when life and death are at stake, Yuanting
Those high-level officials are still busy fighting for power and profit.
Even several khanates had a gap with the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, and they rarely obeyed the orders of the Yuan Dynasty.
Historically, during Zhu Yuanzhang's Northern Expedition, the local army and even Wang Baobao ignored Emperor Yuan Shun's will and allowed the Ming army to conquer most of the capital. Then they mobilized large armies to fight the Ming army. In the end, except for a small number of Mongolians, they left with Emperor Yuan Shun.
None of the others resisted and surrendered directly to Zhu Yuanzhang.
It can be said that Yuan Tingkong had great strength, but in the end he died due to internal fighting.
Although Emperor Yuan Shun sent King Ruyang to deal with the rebels this time, from Su Cheng's point of view, it would still end in an anticlimax.
"I have nothing to do with the rebels. Could it be that Zhao Min called me to Dadu to deal with some master?"
Judging from the news passed by the Beggar Clan, this incident happened in Dadu in recent days, and no other Jianghu people showed up. If it was not to deal with the rebels, then it was to deal with the political opponents of King Ruyang.
The opponents of the masters around King Ruyang must also be aware of it and will be prepared accordingly. Moreover, if someone from Prince Ruyang's palace takes action, no matter whether it is successful or not, it will be extremely easy to leave clues.
Thinking about it carefully, Su Cheng felt that this was really possible, otherwise why would Zhao Min insist on inviting him?
"Xiao Zhao, then come with me. This trip to Dadu seems unavoidable."
Su Cheng still planned to take Xiao Zhao with him. Although the second-rate master was not powerful, he was somewhat capable of protecting himself. Moreover, Xiao Zhao was very smart and could help when encountering problems.
At this time, within the Huashan Sect, Su Cheng had already passed on all the internal skills and mental techniques that he had sorted out, and had also ordered the two elders of Huashan to search for items such as cold jade beds. For the time being, there was no need for him to stay and deal with things.
.
As I have said before, it is three to four thousand miles from Huashan to Dadu. This time, Su Cheng did not plan to use his legs to travel. He and Xiao Zhao each drove a BMW and walked towards the mountain without any hurry.
Rush in the most direction.
After passing Hangu Pass, Shaanzhou, and Su City, the two of them walked all the way and found that the places they visited along the way could really be called purgatory on earth.
In the land of Shaanxi and Henan, due to the turmoil of the current situation, endless wars, barren fields, and disrepair of water conservancy, people's livelihood is difficult. To make matters worse, locust plagues and droughts occur frequently, resulting in famine everywhere in these places. The people at the bottom are really struggling to live.
In dire straits.
Faced with this situation, Su Cheng was helpless. Although he was extremely skilled in martial arts, he might be able to save dozens of people, but if it were hundreds or thousands of people, as well as the subsequent food, clothing, housing, transportation, etc., this would definitely be the power of one person and one faction.
It can be solved.
"In prosperity, the people suffer; in death, the people suffer..."
Seeing these scenes, Su Cheng had a deeper understanding of this sentence. No matter in prosperous times or troubled times, in this world, only ordinary people are at the bottom and the most helpless.
Seeing these miserable scenes along the way, Su Cheng felt blocked, filled with anger and depression, and finally arrived at Wangwu Mountain.
"Huh? Xiao Zhao, stop, there is someone ambushing you in front."
Su Cheng stopped Xiao Zhao, but his expression looked very relaxed, because according to his perception, although there were many people in front of him, there were no masters.
Whoa whoosh!
Seeing Su Cheng and the two people stop, the people who were ambushing in front rushed forward. There were dozens of people, all in ragged clothes and as skinny as wood. Some were holding steel knives, and some were holding iron forks, and they attacked Su Cheng.
They surrounded Xiao Zhao.
After being here for so long, this is the first time Su Cheng has been blocked and robbed by someone, and these are the weak refugees in front of him. Even an ordinary Huashan disciple can kill everyone in front of him.
"Where are you from? How dare you intercept us?"
Su Cheng had a look of surprise on his face. Just like him and Xiao Zhao, who started out young and dared to travel in such a big way was definitely an extraordinary person. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that such a person was either from a famous sect or from a wealthy family.
You can't be offended easily.
"Hmph, stop talking nonsense, leave the dry food and money, and I will let you go, otherwise neither of you will be able to leave."
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man, whose appearance was unclear because of his gray hair and face. He was eight feet tall and had a majestic body. He looked like he only knew how to use fists and feet, but with his physique, he would be a good figure in the army.
"It seems that I need to teach you a lesson first so that you can understand the gap between us..."
Su Cheng said indifferently, gently flicked his sleeves, and a fiery and domineering internal force shook the surrounding void. With a rumble, dozens of refugees in front were all knocked to the ground.
It was the great demon-subduing boxing technique of the Jiuyin Manual. Su Cheng had no intention of hurting anyone, so he just knocked people to the ground, but did not hurt anyone.
"you……"
The middle-aged man struggled to get up and was about to curse. When he saw that no one around him was injured, he breathed a sigh of relief. He stood up and saluted respectfully and said:
"The villain Zhao Pusheng has met the young master. I would like to thank you for your mercy. I also ask you to forgive me for my rudeness. If you are not absolutely to blame, please just punish me."
Zhao Pusheng, Double Sword Zhao, aren't these famous generals in the late Yuan Dynasty?
Su Cheng looked at Zhao Pusheng, and then thought of Shi Naian in Taihu Lake. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he immediately made arrangements for the whereabouts of these people, and said:
"Brother Zhao, you don't have to be like this. We are all poor people. Let's do this. I have a place here that is enough to guarantee your future life. No matter how many people there are, it can be guaranteed, but there are only a few people who are two thousand miles away from here..."
Zhang Shicheng was born as a private salt dealer and left behind a lot of family property. Moreover, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas are already prosperous, so there is no need to worry even if thousands more people come.
In this way, it not only helps these suffering people, but also brings enough people to Shi Naian, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.
"Thank you, sir. If we are willing, we will die sooner or later if we stay here. Rather than doing this, we might as well give it a try."
Zhao Pusheng agreed without any hesitation.
"Okay, I will give you a token. When you arrive, hand it over and someone will arrange it for you."
Su Cheng handed over a jade seal. Shi Naian might not recognize it, but those Huashan disciples must know it.
