Chapter 1098: Changes in Yi Qi (Part 2)

The Baima tribe has only tens of thousands of people, living in a barren mountainous area. Even if they want to increase their population, it is not so easy. They have to compete for resources.

This competition has caused them to lose their neutral position. Once they are involved in a war, it is not easy to get out.

Tens of thousands of people, no matter how united they are, can only gain a relatively advantageous position among the surrounding small tribes. They are not qualified to touch the behemoth of the Daji Dynasty.

Yiqi can maintain stability, just like water can put out a fire, but once the fire becomes a prairie fire, it is just a drop in the bucket. The water will evaporate into water vapor before it can put out the flame.

The same is true for Yiqi. If the impact from the outside world exceeds the limit, the internal will also be adjusted. It is not really unchanging. Wu Yi’s previous views are actually problematic.

Change and invariance are things that are difficult to explain clearly. Sometimes, it seems that there has been no change, but in fact it has been turned upside down. Sometimes, it seems that there has been a change, but it is just a change of soup.

They claim to be relay races, but how much and what have they relayed?

Criticizing the other party is a boxing match, but who are they performing for when they box each other? In the end, the gentry's money is returned in full, and the people's money is divided into 30% and 70%. No matter how serious the internal struggle is, their essence is the same.

This is what Wu Yi has experienced in observing the daily life of the White Horse Clan for several months. It seems that he has touched the door of change and invariance, but if he wants to enter, there are some inexplicable things between them.

In the summer, the stream gurgles and the cicadas chirp. Unknowingly, Wu Yi has been staying near Dujing County for half a year.

A period of time that can be ignored for a cultivator, but for a mortal, if you stay in a relative's house for such a long time, you are afraid that you will be disliked.

The most important thing is that the election system is already in its third year this year. The governance ability of several princes can be seen a little bit. Many people who did not bet before have begun to bet gradually.

In short, Wu Yi cannot stay here for a long time. In addition, although this place is not far from the coast, the dead air in the water of the West Sea cannot penetrate deeply, which is a bit troublesome for the carp that urgently needs dead air to practice.

Unwilling to give up, the importance of Yiqi to the current inner demon body is not inferior to the black lotus. Wu Yi has a clear understanding in his heart that if he can integrate the two, his inner demon body's road to immortality should be unimpeded.

So Wu Yi sent Taotie to take the carp to the coast so that the carp can absorb the dead air, and he still stayed in Dujing County, waiting for the opportunity to change.

In fact, it can't be said that Wu Yi is getting stuck in a dead end, because in these days, the Yiqi around Dujing County is sometimes active and sometimes depressed, but Wu Yi has not moved, completely hiding behind the scenes, so this matter has nothing to do with Wu Yi.

In other words, something happened that Wu Yi didn't know, but in recent months, people have come and gone, how could Wu Yi be comprehensive and omnipotent, so he can only use the stupid method of "waiting for the rabbit".

If he really took advantage of the situation and placed the seeds of evil thoughts, all the creatures within a thousand miles would become Wu Yi's eyes and ears. Wu Yi did not really implement it because he was worried that doing so would cause changes in the Qi.

Therefore, no matter how strange and puzzling his actions were, Wu Yi still did not move a step away. He would do what he decided to do.

In the end, Wu Yi's efforts did not go to waste. Finally, half a month later, a scholar in white visited Dujing County with a dozen yamen runners behind him. He must be from the government.

This scholar in white was handsome and majestic, with a towering valley and a sky. His steps were auspicious and he followed the rules. It was obvious that he was not from an ordinary person.

Along the way, Wu Yi had seen many young people who were outstanding. The reason why he could determine that the change of Qi in Dujing County was related to him was because Wu Yi sensed the imperial Qi in him.

If I guessed correctly, this scholar in white should be a retainer of a certain prince, and this trip was ordered by that prince.

The prince who was elected in the western territory of the Great Ji Dynasty was the eldest prince, Prince Lu. However, it was still uncertain whether this scholar in white was a disciple of Prince Lu. It was only possible that this was the case.

Wu Yi looked at the group of people from a distance without any action. He just watched. At this moment, there was something more important for Wu Yi.

As the group of people entered the county, the Qi entrenched in the heart demon's body also changed. The change was not large, but the problem was that Wu Yi could trace the law of the change of Qi this time.

The scholar in white came here in name to seek economic cooperation with the Baima tribe, because there was a rare tree in the area where the Baima tribe lived. After cutting the bark, white juice would flow out. It was a natural white paint, insect repellent and antiseptic. There was also a sweet and pleasant fragrance, which was fascinating. The nobles of the Great Ji Dynasty loved it very much.

However, the Baima tribe prefers white and regards this tree as a sacred tree. They do not use much every year, and the juice is not much, so this white paint is priceless.

In order to accelerate the economic development of the county under his rule, King Lu set his sights on this thing. It can be imagined that if King Lu succeeds, this tree will basically be extinct.

Although doing so is a bit like exhausting the pond to catch fish, King Lu wants the development of the area under his rule in the next nine years. To be honest, whether it can be sustainable after nine years has little to do with him.

The white-clothed scholars came here to exterminate the holy tree of the White Horse Clan. Naturally, they could not get the support of the people of the White Horse Clan. It was good enough that they were not driven out.

In order to achieve the final victory under the election system, King Lu had to hand in a satisfactory answer sheet, and he did not care about exhausting all the fish in the pond for this. The White Horse Clan wanted to protect their holy tree and kept delaying.

On one side was the eldest prince of the Daji Dynasty, and on the other side was a small tribe on the western border. The strength and weakness of the two tribes were self-evident.

But some things cannot be viewed so simply. If the White Horse Clan was really such a persimmon that could be easily manipulated, the election system had been held hundreds of times. In the past, there were so many princes who coveted the holy tree. Why didn't they succeed?

Because these princes of high status also have weaknesses, and they are weaknesses that can be seen at a glance. When carrying out the election system, they must maintain the image of a perfect person. If they force the small tribe to rebel, it will be more than worth the loss.

In the past, the White Horse tribe would not dare to act rashly after being threatened like this.

But this time, it was different.
