Chapter 151 Mo Qingfeng wakes up

Liu Qingjia replied, "I haven't seen it, but Your Majesty, please think carefully, why did that ray of sword light go directly to the Royal Academy after killing more than a dozen masters, determined to kill the national teacher Nangong Ji?"

Hearing this, Murong Wu's face changed slightly, and then he thought of something, "Could it be..."

"Yes, the matter of major civil engineering and extensive corvee was first proposed by the national teacher, and many things were also handled by him. The ray of sword light pointed directly at him, and the intention was obvious, which was to warn our country not to do major civil engineering and lose luck."

"That makes sense," Murong Wu nodded slightly, but then he hesitated, "But those palaces have been built halfway, and it's a pity to stop construction suddenly."

"Your Majesty, this is just the first warning. Who can guarantee that the peerless strong man will not take action again? By then, our Star Empire will not only lose more than a dozen masters, but may even..." At this point, Liu Qingjia did not go down, otherwise it would be disrespectful.

Murong Wu's face changed. Indeed, if that peerless strong man took action again, the consequences would be unimaginable. For such a thing, it is better to believe it than not. If it goes wrong, he, the king, may be in danger.

Thinking of this, Murong Wu finally made up his mind, "Pass the order to stop all civil engineering construction and reduce taxes by half. If there is a disaster, open the warehouse to release grain. If it is not enough, take it from the treasury."

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful. This move is a blessing for the people of our Xing Empire. I, Liu Fu, thank Your Majesty on behalf of the people." Liu Qingjia knelt down to thank him.

But when he knelt down, Liu Fu's face clearly flashed a trace of joy and relief.

In fact, the law enforcers were all made up by him. His words were just to let Murong Wu reduce the burden on the people. Fortunately, with his eloquence, Murong Wu believed him.

In fact, Murong Wu made this decision because he was worried about his life. Otherwise, what would the people's livelihood and the country's fortune have to do with him?

At noon, Mo Qingfeng finally woke up.

Seeing Mo Qingfeng wake up, Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Senior Brother Mo, you finally woke up."

Mo Qingfeng frowned slightly, looked around, and looked at Lin Xiao, "Are we in the inn?"

"Yes, I carried you back yesterday. Fortunately, your injuries are not serious."

"Not serious?" Mo Qingfeng was stunned, and then checked his body. He was surprised to find that all the injuries in his body were healed, and he felt that his physical strength had increased a lot, which was really a bit strange.

Mo Qingfeng held his forehead, recalled what happened in the ruins yesterday, and said, "Junior Brother Lin, Dugu Fei led people to chase us yesterday. I was unconscious at that time. How did you take me out?"

Lin Xiao had already thought about these things, "It's like this, Senior Brother Mo, when Dugu Fei and his men were chasing us, suddenly, an old senior appeared in the ruins."

"This old senior is very powerful. Dugu Fei and Nangong Lin were directly killed. In the end, this old senior also gave me a ground-level scroll." Lin Xiao said seriously.

Hearing this, Mo Qingfeng had a blank expression on his face and looked up at Lin Xiao, "Why did the old senior help you, and why did he kill others? And gave you a, ground-level scroll?"

"I don't know either, but that old senior seems to have some fate with me. Anyway, I am very special, so he gave me a ground-level technique." Lin Xiao made up a story, and he has been observing Mo Qingfeng's face carefully.

Mo Qingfeng has always been expressionless, which makes Lin Xiao unable to guess whether he believes what he said.

Fortunately, after a moment of silence, Mo Qingfeng did not say anything else. He seemed to know that Lin Xiao had something to hide, or he really believed what Lin Xiao said.

"No matter what, I still have to thank this senior," Mo Qingfeng said in a calm voice, "It is also your chance to get help from that senior. Fortunately, you and I are still alive."

Lin Xiao nodded and said, "Brother Mo, why don't you practice this earth-level technique with me."

Hearing this, Mo Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head, "Forget it, since it was given to you by that old senior, it has nothing to do with me. This is your chance, and I shouldn't get involved."

Lin Xiao was stunned. He knew very well how tempting the earth-level technique was. Even Dugu Fei, Nangong Lin, and even people of Nangong Ji's status were desperate to get it, but Mo Qingfeng was unmoved.

In fact, Lin Xiao could have kept the matter of the Earth-level scroll secret, but after all, Mo Qingfeng almost lost his life to save him, so Lin Xiao was willing to tell him about it and share the Earth-level technique with him.

But what he didn't expect was that Mo Qingfeng didn't accept it.

In fact, Mo Qingfeng also wanted to practice the Earth-level technique. After all, even in the entire Star Empire, there were no more than 20 volumes of Earth-level techniques, which was rare.

By practicing the Lin-level technique, he would definitely be able to improve his strength.

However, Mo Qingfeng didn't want Lin Xiao to think that he was helping him in order to get something from him. Maybe Lin Xiao wouldn't think so, but he would.
