Chapter 365: Secret Village

After the breakthrough, Jiang Lan tidied up his clothes and removed the formation...

It was already noon, so he prepared to wash up and have lunch.

Unexpectedly, Ye Cheng came to his door just after he finished washing up.

"I'm here to bother you."

"No problem, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"King Gao Ming has already started to target the stories you put out. This happened half a month ago. I wanted to notify you immediately..."

"But I didn't bother you when I saw you haven't come out of retreat yet."

"Oh? Let me see..."

Jiang Lan took the letter from Ye Cheng and read it carefully.

The small piece of letter paper had recorded the recent situation clearly.

King Gao Ming mobilized the state machinery and directly sent out the army to suppress it.

Now, all teahouses no longer tell stories of "The Story of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality".

The stories that were leaked were also forcibly collected from each family and burned in pits.

The whole country is forbidden to discuss the content of "The Story of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality". Anyone who violates it will be fined and warned directly, and serious cases will be arrested and imprisoned.

This book banning movement can be said to have caused chaos in Jin.

It also affected other types of vernacular novels.

For a time, there was a feeling that entertainment was dying and turning into a desert.

However, in Jiang Lan's opinion, King Gao Ming's move was indeed a bad idea.

In this way, wouldn't it be a disguised admission that he had a guilty conscience and made the people suspicious?

At the same time, not everyone can accept a tough attitude.

After all, the vernacular story has been circulated for more than two years, and there are many fans and a large base. If it is killed with one stick, there will inevitably be public opinion.

Moreover, Jin is not without opponents, and the "Qingtian Army" is still eyeing it covetously.

This move will surely become the "tongue" used by the other party to attack Jin.

Let's talk about the banned book itself. Can it really be banned?

People's psychology is very strange, rebellious, curious...

Some things, the more you don't let people do them, the more curious they will be.

It's like the electronic games in the previous life, the more you don't let people play them, the more people yearn for them. Once you have the opportunity to play them, you will forget about food and sleep, and don't know why.

In this era of lack of entertainment, such stories are not only cheap, but can also greatly enrich the spiritual world of ordinary people and give them a little comfort.

Even if you can't see the original, it's not easy to pass it on by word of mouth, change your name, and mean something?

Can't you stop people from talking...

In the final analysis, it's because King Gao Ming has never seen such a "public opinion offensive", and his arrogance that he regards the world as his own, which led him to make the most suitable decision for himself-to stop completely.

If Jiang Lan faced this situation, he would only have two strategies: middle and lower.

The middle strategy is to pretend to be dead directly, without any reason. In this way, even if someone is suspicious of King Gao Ming's various things in a subtle way, it will lead to changes in the country's destiny.

But firstly, there is no hard evidence, and secondly, most people can still distinguish between the story and reality. This is the absolute foundation of King Gaoming. Even if the national fortune of Jin State declines, it can cover the bottom line.

As long as there is enough time, it is completely possible to use this period of time to complete the transformation of identity and completely cut off from the "King Gaoming" of Jin State.

In this way, it is equivalent to slow death. Before that moment comes, it is completely possible to find an opportunity to get out.

The worst strategy is to directly and generously admit the existence of such supernatural power and whitewash oneself with public opinion.

However, the consequences of this strategy are difficult to control. Can the people accept it, or are they indifferent, or strongly resist it?

It is possible to pass this level perfectly, not only successfully whitewash oneself, but also no longer need to pretend in the future, and directly sit on the throne forever.

It can also solve the national fortune crisis and transition the country to the development of the Immortal Dynasty.

It may also be despised by the people, the national fortune collapses, and the life and death of oneself disappears...

Such consequences are inevitable.

This is not just about seeing the people obey in reality, their hearts can be directly reflected in the national destiny.

And the safety of King Gao Ming is tied to the national destiny.

It can be said that there are opportunities and risks. The reason why Jiang Lan is ranked as the worst option is because he is a conservative person. As long as the consequences are too serious for him to bear, even if there are many benefits, he will still put it at the back of his mind.

After reading the letter, Jiang Lan replied to Ye Cheng, "King Gao Ming's move is tantamount to digging his own grave. We have done what we should do and just wait for the result."

"After all, this move is just a chess piece, causing trouble for King Gao Ming."

"The most important thing is to strengthen ourselves and be prepared for the final battle..."

"By the way, are they okay?"

Ye Cheng was stunned, then understood who Jiang Lan was referring to, and lowered his head to answer, "Sir, are you talking about 'Ji Zhongjing' and others?"

"Anzhuang has ordered them to hide themselves, and they have not been exposed yet."

"Is that so? I'm glad they are okay."

Hearing this, Ye Cheng was touched. Jiang Lan cares about their lives and will not disregard the lives of his men for the sake of merit. Just based on this, he is much better than King Gao Ming!

A few resolute faces flashed through Jiang Lan's mind.

When he handed the script to them, the hatred and expectation flashed in their eyes, which made him remember it vividly...

During these three turbulent years, in addition to the two forces in the open, the Jin State and the "Qingtian Army" fighting each other,

a hidden force was also sprouting in the dark.

That was the "Dark Village"!

Or it could be said that the forces led by Han Gongxian and his men changed their appearance and established an organization.

After a period of recuperation, Han Gongxian led his men out of the mountains again.

And this time, there is no need to worry about a series of issues such as territory, food, and resources, and he can completely let go and plan revenge.

They each activated their originally prepared identities and were active in various parts of Jin State, collecting information and growing stronger.

After all, they had been fighting with Jin State for decades. With Han Gongxian's cautious nature, he naturally made several preparations at the beginning and created several identities that could withstand scrutiny.

After decades of operation, he developed some spies to help him obtain various intelligence, making it easier for him to retaliate or do some tricks.

And Ji Zhongjing was one of the members they developed after they came out of the mountains recently.

It's miserable...

His real name is Tian Juan, a storyteller. He didn't say he was rich for most of his life, but he didn't worry about food and clothing, and his family was also happy.

However, everything changed when the bandits were born. The village where his parents lived was massacred by the bandits. Except for the young and beautiful girls, all of them lost their lives.

And his wife and children happened to return home to visit their parents during that time.

The result was that there was no news, probably because they met with an accident.

Ji Zhongjing was so angry when he got the news that he signed up for the war against the bandits on the spot.

However, unlike the war against the bandits he imagined, it took a lot of time for Jin Guoguang to gather food and grass, and even he, an outsider, felt that the war against the bandits was perfunctory.

He was so angry that he went to his superiors to argue, but he was charged with the crime of disturbing the morale of the army and was imprisoned.

Until he came to the marching prison, there were already many people squatting in it, and even a few of them he knew.

At the beginning, they had signed up for the army together and chatted with each other. They were all iron-blooded men whose hometowns were massacred and vowed to kill the bandits for revenge.

But now, they are all in prison one by one, but he is not the last one, and people are being imprisoned one after another.

After everyone talked to each other, they realized that those who were imprisoned were all people who hoped to send troops to fight the bandits as soon as possible.

Some even just asked to be the vanguard, but were imprisoned on false charges.

Although many people here were puzzled and complained, they were still willing to believe in Jin State and King Gao Ming.
