Chapter 1099 Incident in Duqiong County

The sacred tree of the Baima people is called the snow tree among outsiders. On the one hand, after cutting its bark, a snow-white liquid will flow out, which is a rare raw material for white paint. On the other hand, it is also because the leaves resemble Flying snow.

After autumn, the other trees will become yellow and withered, but the leaves of the snow tree will turn from green to white. After a while, they will be like fly ash, blown away by the wind.

In autumn and winter, when you watch this scene, it is very beautiful, but a little lonely and desolate. It makes people think that no matter what your status is in life, you will be left with nothing after death.

In order to increase the economic aggregate of the counties under his rule, King Lu, the eldest prince, ordered his men to come to Duqiong County to discuss cooperation with the local Baima tribe.

After roughly knowing what happened, Wu Yi was naturally not particularly optimistic about the matter. He had vividly remembered the treatment he received when he came to Duxion County before. The Baima tribe yearned for peace and was content with the status quo. How could they betray themselves for money? Belief.

But what happened next was beyond Wu Yi's expectation. In just two or three days, not long after the scholar in white entered Duqiong County, he had already developed to the point of organizing the public to obtain white paint.

How did this scholar in white impress the people of the White Horse Tribe? Is it just an inducement? Still promising a first-class reputation, is King Lu willing to pay the price of his reputation for this white paint?

Wu Yi couldn't figure it out, so he simply followed the people picking up white paint and secretly observed their attitude towards this.

As the friendship between the Baima tribe and King Lu gradually became deeper, the Yi Qi surrounding Duqiong County was originally enough to cause the Yi Qi in Wu Yi's body to move, but now it is much weaker.

King Lu participated in the selection system and may become the emperor in the future. It involves the future direction of a country. Wu Yi really doesn't understand why the Baima clan wants to wade in this muddy water. It stands to reason that they can maintain their inheritance for thousands of years, so they shouldn't be so ignorant!

Since we yearn for peace, we should take the initiative to stay away from entanglements. The Baima tribe has a reputation for absolute neutrality. If the Baima tribe really refuses, King Lu will not be able to use force. After all, he has to care about his own reputation.

Secretly listening to the conversation between the Baima tribe, Wu Yi was a little surprised to find that the joint mining of white paint seemed to have been proposed by the Baima tribe themselves, with the purpose of spreading purity throughout the world.

Similar to a religious complex, spreading the three views one believes in, this explanation makes sense.

It's just that although Wu Yi rarely interacts with others, his inner demon body still controls the huge Bright Moon Realm! In order to deal with the relationship between his disciples and disciples, and to reconcile the internal interests of the sect, he can be regarded as clear on many things.

This kind of thing that is purely insisted on for personal beliefs is to deceive the people at the bottom. The real reason is definitely not like this. At least this matter is not a good thing for the White Horse clan. Excessive wealth is a fatal disaster for them.

In any society, there will be a distinction between elites and civilians. However, in some places, the division is based on knowledge, and in other places, the division is based on wealth or status.

Although the Baima clan is not large, there is still a division between the elite class and the civilian class, and their method of division is based on the degree of external recognition.

In other words, the more you know about the outside world, the better you can achieve a higher status within the Baima clan. Daily external communication is mainly the responsibility of this elite group.

The ordinary people of the Baima tribe are actually a very simple group because of their regular schedules and no disputes with others. Among them, it is normal for them to stay open at night.

Although the elite groups who often deal with the outside world know more, their simplicity is more often obliterated by the intrigues and intrigues of the outside world.

This also needs to be viewed objectively. If we don't get closer to the outside world and learn the tricks and tricks on how to protect the interests of the Baima tribe, a group of naive tribesmen will easily be deceived by outsiders and end up selling themselves into slavery.

However, if you learn the conspiracy and tricks of the outside world, you can use it on outsiders. If you think about it in another way, can't you also use it on the tribesmen?

Is it possible that the upper echelons of the White Horse clan deceived the clan members in order to gain fame? Wu Yi thought in his heart, although the possibility is very high, it is just a guess and needs to be verified.

It no longer makes much sense to continue to watch the ordinary Baima people collect white paint. In the mouths of ordinary people who have never seen the dark side of the world, the world is clear and bright, which is childish and helpless.

Turning into a wisp of breeze, Wu Yi returned to Duqiong County, where he had been away for half a year. This time, Taotie had already taken the carp to the coast to absorb the life force. Taotie was unable to hide his figure, which made Wu Yi want to go with him. Being out in the public eye and being alone now, you don't have to worry about much.

In addition, because the Baima people are friends with King Lu and actually participate in the election system of the Daji Dynasty, they have been involved in the overall situation. They can no longer sit back and watch, attracting calamity from all directions.

In the past, the Yi Qi that circled around Duxun County gradually went dormant. It can be said that the cooperation between the Baima tribe and King Lu was destroying the Great Wall. In the past, if monsters came to Du Xiao County, they would still be wary of the Yi Qi here. But now that the excitement has faded away, Duqiong County is just an ordinary county town, open to anyone's control.

Ordinary people don't know this, but the patron saint of the Baima tribe, the middle-aged woman who blocked Wu Yi from entering Duxion County in the past, should understand this. Why not stop this cooperation? Because of its authoritative position within the Baima clan, there is no need to manifest it in the daytime, just a dream in secret.

But when Wu Yi carefully entered Duxion County, he was surprised to find that he couldn't sense the woman's aura. What a joke, this woman is the patron deity formed by the incense produced by the Baima tribe when they worship their ancestors. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the most lofty being in the Baima clan. His divine power is spread all over Duqiong County, and Wu Yi is unable to detect any trace of him.

This god's cultivation level has barely reached the level of a mid-level god, and it is impossible to hide it from the eyes of the inner demon body. Therefore, there is only one situation left, that is, this god should be suppressed.

With this ability, in the place where the Baima tribe lives, the patron saint who suppressed them should be the scholar in white. As a disciple of King Lu, a command from King Lu can easily achieve his goal.

Wu Yi was thinking in his heart.

After investigating in many ways, and even using the method of tracing back the calamity, Wu Yi realized that the middle-aged woman had not disappeared.

To be more precise, it is that a person has changed. The priest's duty is no longer to protect the Baima tribe, but to lead the Baima tribe to get rich. With the change of priesthood, the whole aura of the person has also undergone earth-shaking changes.
