Nanling, summer.
The scorching sun in this season is already unbearable, and the humidity and heat in Nanling are even worse.
It is the time when poisonous insects are prevalent, which can be said to be the most dangerous season in the entire Nanling Mountains.
And in a place with green forests and barren mountains, there stands an inn.
The post station is not big, with only four wooden houses. The wood used in its construction is dried in a special way, which can prevent it from decay and insects.
After Wang Yangming was demoted here, he sat in the post station to study.
Although the environment here is harsh, it is a quiet place. There is no need for so many worldly affairs and so much intrigue.
Today, I found that passers-by were all in a hurry, as if they had discovered something important, and they also had some guesses.
"Wang Yicheng, can we rest for a while at this post station?"
Just as Wang Yangming was thinking, a hoarse and elderly voice with a heavy accent suddenly came.
If Wang Yangming had just arrived, he probably wouldn't have understood, but now he could barely understand the meaning.
Looking up, I saw a family of five.
An old man, two couples, and two young children, all wearing Nanling costumes.
He was exhausted and tired, and his fatigue was visible to the naked eye.
There was even more sorrow in his eyes, and he was carrying several bags, as if he was running for his life.
Wang Yangming knew this family and also remembered that the family in front of him lived in the neighboring village. Could something have happened?
Although it is a land of thirteen states, it is still easy for tigers, beasts and poisonous insects to attack villages in Nanling.
Or maybe, what happened was exactly what you imagined?
Judging from his appearance, he must be fleeing for his life. Wang Yangming asked, "Of course, old man, may I ask what happened here?"
The old man sighed, put down the bag in his hand, and replied: "Wang Yicheng, I heard that Guwanggu has rebelled, and the disciples of Guwanggu are recruiting soldiers.
They wanted to drag us all into the fight against the big guns, but we were honest, down-to-earth people from the countryside, so we didn't want to do that. That's why we escaped."
Although they are natives of Nanling, they are just ordinary people. What difference does it make to them who pays taxes?
Moreover, Da Gan has ruled this place for hundreds of years and has always adopted a conciliatory policy. If he asks them to fight to the death, at least ordinary people will not be willing to do so.
Wang Yangming was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that this incident would actually happen much faster than he imagined.
He thought it would take a few years for the conflict to erupt. Now that this has happened, there must be a reason, and there may be someone behind it.
While thinking about this, he hurriedly led a few people into the inn, cleaned up a room, and prepared food and accommodation.
This post station was originally where traveling merchants and officials stayed, so there were naturally some empty rooms.
“I heard that several nearby county towns have been occupied by them, and I don’t know what’s happening to the surrounding villages.
I have a family to support, and my child is only a few years old.
We were used to it, and it was OK to spend a few days in the wild, even though it was summer and there were so many poisonous insects.
The child is suffering in the wild, so I came to disturb Wang Yicheng."
After saying this, the couple and their two children hurriedly thanked Wang Yangming.
Although this place is a mountainous area, after so many years of rule by Da Gan, some educational results have been achieved.
Wang Yangming stayed here for some time and had some reputation in this place, whether it was for providing food to passers-by.
I still teach the children around me to read and write, and I have gained some trust.
"Alas." Wang Yangming sighed. No matter what, the people are suffering after all.
When he looked at the current situation, he found the problem.
That is, the forces that want to rely on Da Gan and the forces that want independence are like water and fire.
It's like a powder keg that will explode sooner or later, and no one knows who lit the fuse.
Apart from Dagan, Nanling is controlled by seven forces, or it can be said that it is controlled by one force.
They are the seven valleys of curse, poison, insect, medicine, beast, ghost and illusion.
They are all disciples of the old man Nanling, and have inherited the seven unique skills of the old man Nanling.
These seven techniques originally complement each other, but for the supreme grandmaster.
It is obviously impossible to master every one of them and comprehend the power of heaven and earth.
Therefore, of course they also know the other six kinds of magic, and they are even very strong, perhaps even stronger than the average grandmaster.
But it is still one of them that allows them to become the supreme grandmaster.
Only by achieving the status of a celestial being can one fully master the inheritance of the Nanling old man.
After Da Gan unified Nanling, he was unwilling to become an enemy of Nanling's heritage.
After the celestial beings appeared in Nanling, they began to formally cooperate with them.
The seven disciples of the old man Nanling established these seven valleys, which were distributed in different places and managed together with Da Gan.
Of course, among these valley masters, some have good relationships with Dagan, while others have bad ones.
The rebellion at this time was led by the four grains of curse, poison, insect and medicine.
But the beast, ghost and phantom valleys didn't know how to respond.
Despite this incident, the old man from Nanling, who was the core of Nanling, did not show up and did not come forward to stop the four rebellious disciples.
He did not come forward to support the three disciples who helped Bang Dagan, and seemed to have disappeared.
That is why the situation in Nanling is so chaotic, and all major forces have their own interests.
If he could show up and say a word, he could put down the Nanling rebellion.
Or he could lead the seven valleys in rebellion at the same time. No matter what, he did not choose any path.
Now the imperial court in Nanling is too busy to take care of itself, so it is naturally impossible for it to help the people in the villages.
They could only hide in various cities and wait for support from the Dagan court.
