133 The Wu Family Was Investigated
Chapter 133
The master they feared the most left, and Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo could finally move.
They were not really foolish and bold. Before the move, they took out the jade pendant given by Dean Pei and put it on their chests. In case the Yuandan realm master really came back, found them and attacked them, the jade pendant could be used to save their lives.
If such a situation really happened, it would not be them who died, but the Yuandan realm master.
Because he was only in the early stage of the Yuandan realm, the jade pendant sealed a blow from the late stage of the Yuandan realm.
The Yuan crystals were placed in a special warehouse, and a special token was required to enter the warehouse, because there was also a protective formation here, but it was because of the formation that it was ineffective against Bai Qiaomo.
After studying the fifth-grade formations in the abandoned mansion, Bai Qiaomo's formation skills have improved. The formations here are much worse than those in the abandoned mansion.
Before those cultivators came back after solving the problem, Bai Qiaomo had already opened a hole in the formation and took Feng Ming in.
As soon as they entered, Feng Ming was so surprised that he almost shouted to express his excitement, because the warehouse was full of Yuan Jing. Feng Ming looked at this and touched that, and wanted to shout.
Bai Qiaomo looked at the row of boxes on the side, opened one of them, and the rich Yuan Qi rushed out, and Bai Qiaomo smiled.
"Brother Ming, come and look here."
Feng Ming ran over: "What are you looking at?"
"These boxes are all filled with middle-grade crystals."
Feng Ming gasped immediately. Wow, the quality of the ore here is really good. There are even middle-grade crystals, and the quantity seems to be quite large.
"Are these ten or so boxes filled with them?"
Feng Ming said as he ran to open the remaining boxes. They were all middle-grade crystals. My God, just these ten or so boxes of middle-grade crystals made them rich.
"Hurry up, let's put them away. Brother Bai, hurry up, or someone will come in."
"Okay." Bai Qiaomo agreed with a smile.
The two of them were busy, and in a blink of an eye, they collected all the Yuan crystals in the warehouse, and then joined forces to leave the warehouse. The cultivators who had solved the problem had not returned yet, which showed how strong the medicine Feng Ming had given was.
The Yuan Dan realm master became more and more suspicious while solving his own problem, and was worried that someone would know about the mine and target the warehouse they were guarding, so he stood up and went back to check.
However, the medicine Feng Ming gave was not an ordinary medicine, but a medicine specifically for cultivators. Feng Ming learned this from He Gongfeng. Feng Ming didn't know where He Gongfeng got this secret recipe from. It was a powerful laxative for cultivators.
Feng Ming thought that he would never use it after he got it, but he never thought that it would come in handy, and the effect was so good.
A foul smell could be smelled in the room. If you only eat grains, there would be a foul smell. Feng Ming smiled and pulled Bai Qiaomo to run away.
After running a long way, Feng Ming burst into laughter. If the scene was not so ugly, he really wanted to take a picture with the photo stone.
The two of them rushed overnight. After half an hour, Bai Qiaomo suddenly stopped and bent down to listen. Feng Ming followed suit, and then the two stood up and looked at each other.
"Is this coming?"
Bai Qiaomo nodded: "It should be. If I'm right, it should be the royal silver armored army."
Bai Qiaomo went in the opposite direction of the vibration from the ground, and explained to Feng Ming the armed forces in the hands of the royal family while walking.
The Dongmu royal family has three major armed forces, of which the Iron Armored Army is known to almost everyone. It has the largest number of people and the widest distribution.
Part of the city guards in many cities also belong to the Iron Armored Army, which has also attracted many cultivators to join.
"Above the Iron Armored Army is the Silver Armored Army. The Silver Armored Army is responsible for supervising the world. Some of the Silver Armored Army will also be stationed in the most dangerous areas to prevent the occurrence of wild beast tides. Once such private mining of Yuanjing ore veins occurs, the Silver Armored Army will usually be dispatched. The prestige and ferocity of the Silver Armored Army are higher than the Iron Armored Army. Only the best in the Iron Armored Army are qualified to join the Silver Armored Army."
Feng Ming was surprised: "Iron Armor, Silver Armor, is there an army above that called the Gold Armored Army?"
Bai Qiao Mo nodded: "Yes, there is a mysterious Golden Armor Army under the Silver Armor. The Golden Armor Army only takes orders from the emperor. Some of them are in the open, and some are hidden in secret, and may be hidden among people he knows. The Golden Armor Army has the smallest number of people, but it is also the strongest army. Ordinary people may not know about it, but those aristocratic families are very wary of this Golden Armor Army that can appear and disappear at will."
Feng Ming understood: "The Golden Armor Army is also a trump card in the emperor's hand."
"Yes, I have come into contact with a commander of the Golden Armor Army before, and his strength is in the Soul Opening Realm, so Brother Ming, don't underestimate the power of the royal family."
Feng Ming gasped. He thought, the royal family must have more than one trump card, the Golden Armor Army. It can be seen that Huang Ding's power is really strong, otherwise he would not have sat on the throne for thousands of years.
Although Bai Qiaomo had dealt with the royal family in his previous life, he dared not say that he knew everything about the Dongmu royal family.
Of course, it was enough to deal with the prince born to the noble of the Wu family. Now the Wu family is in trouble.
The two of them were not in a hurry to hurry now. They walked slowly and leisurely. Relying on their strength, they were not afraid of the attacks of wild beasts at night. So when they rushed back to Guanglin City, it was about ten o'clock in the morning. Before they reached the city gate, they felt that the atmosphere here was not right.
After walking a little further, they found that the people guarding the city gate were no longer the original people, but cultivators wearing black iron armor.
Feng Ming blinked and whispered to Bai Qiaomo: "Is this the Iron Armored Army?"
Bai Qiaomo nodded: "It seems that something has happened to the Wu family, and the Iron Armored Army transferred from nearby has taken over the city."
The people who wanted to enter the city were very panicked. Their lives were already hard enough. The taxes they paid every year were very heavy. They needed to work all year round to pay the taxes and support their families. They were afraid that another group of people would come to oppress them.
As a result, many people gathered at the city gate, not daring to enter the city, and wanted to understand the situation.
At this time, an armored guard came out and told the people loudly: "The court discovered that the Wu family secretly stored the Yuanjing ore vein. They dug it without reporting it to the court, which is a taboo for the court. The court sent officials to investigate the matter. From today, a comprehensive investigation of the Wu family will be conducted, and the armored army will take over the affairs of Guanglin City. Arrangements will be made after the investigation."
Because the previous city lord was a member of the Wu family, the city lord was also investigated when the Wu family was investigated.
After everyone understood, there was a sudden uproar at the city gate. The court was actually going to investigate the Wu family. The Wu family had committed a serious crime. Everyone talked about it.
In the past, they would never dare to talk about the Wu family, but now that the Wu family has committed a fatal crime, they are not allowed to say a few words?
The common people in the imperial court knew that the imperial court did not allow local areas to privately mine Yuanjing mines, and once discovered, they would be strictly investigated.
"Doesn't the Wu family have a prince in the imperial city? How come they don't even know this rule?"
"Tsk, of course they don't understand. The Wu family clearly took advantage of their power and knowingly committed a crime. They thought they could get away with it with the protection of the prince. They never expected that they would still be investigated."
"Have you heard that the Wu family found some Yuanjing mines and asked people to dig them up?"
"I don't know about this, but I heard that people have often gone missing in our area in recent years. In my eldest uncle's family, my uncle's family... my eldest nephew's family, the entire village has disappeared. Someone from above came to investigate and said that a wild beast had attacked the village and killed everyone in the village. Who knows, there may be another reason for this. It's possible that everyone in the village was captured by the Wu family to dig for minerals."
"Young Master Wu got married not long ago, and something happened to the Wu family. Will the new bride regret marrying into the Wu family?"
"I heard that the new bride is also from a prominent family, why did she marry a useless person?"
Before this, they knew that Young Master Wu Yingyan had become a useless person, but no one dared to say a word outside. If they mentioned a "useless person", someone might come to arrest them. Now they can finally comment on the affairs of the Wu family.
Seeing that the Iron Armored Army really did not arrest people indiscriminately, the people gathered outside dared to enter the city.
Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo followed the queue and were strictly checked before they were allowed to pass. After
entering the city, they did not return to the inn, but followed the crowd to the Wu family to see the excitement.
Some people went to the Wu family purely to watch the excitement, while others had grudges against the Wu family and wanted to see with their own eyes how the Wu family was sealed off.
Anyway, there was no need to look for or inquire on your own. Just follow the crowd and you will definitely reach the building complex where the Wu family is located.
The Wu family mansion covers a very large area, but when Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo arrived, they saw that the entire mansion was surrounded by armored soldiers, and they could hear children crying outside.
Just outside the gate of the Wu family mansion, Feng Ming also saw a figure wearing silver armor inside, and it was obvious that the silver armored soldiers had also joined in.
"Look over there and over there." Bai Qiaomo pointed to two locations on the left and right.
Feng Ming looked in the direction and saw a cultivator in silver armor standing on the far left and far right of the mansion. After careful identification, he found that the auras released by the two were not weak.
Bai Qiaomo took a look and said, "These two should be Yuandan Realm masters in the Silver Armor Army. And they are not ordinary Yuandan Realm masters. They may be at the peak of the late Yuandan Realm to shock the Wu family."
A family like the Wu family not only cultivated its own, but also must have recruited some Yuandan Realm masters. The court sent people to seal up the Wu family, and they must have prevented the Wu family from resisting. These masters are used for this purpose.
Feng Ming was happy about this, and pulled Bai Qiaomo to the opposite direction: "Let's go, find a restaurant to sit down and have a meal, and slowly wait for the results of the Wu family's investigation."
"Okay." Bai Qiaomo was not reluctant.
A silver-armored guard on the wall glanced at Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo, because he saw two grown men holding hands, sticky and unsightly, so he just glanced at them and turned his head away, watching the crying and noisy situation inside the Wu family with cold eyes.
How long has the Wu family been prosperous, and it is unexpected that it has ended up like this. With such a rich mine, the Wu family will definitely not escape the accusation, and there will be no hope of rising again in the future.
He had no sympathy for the Wu family. Although he knew that other princes had contributed to the Wu family's misfortune, it was the Wu family who handed the evidence to them.
If it was a trivial matter, His Majesty might have let them go for the sake of the noble Wu family, but the matter of the Yuanjing Mine was of vital importance. The Wu family had violated a taboo, and neither the prince nor the noble could protect them.
The Iron Armored Army that took over Guanglin City did not block the news from the outside world, including the discovery of a rich mine hidden by the Wu family, so the news here spread quickly in all directions, shocking everyone.
In particular, many people thought that the Feng family of Gaoyang County had just married the daughter of the Feng family to the Wu family, and the result was good, and the Wu family was in trouble.
Was it the Wu family that caused trouble for the Feng family girl, or was it the Feng family girl who was evil and caused trouble for the Wu family as soon as she entered the family?
