Chapter 127 Carrying a gun into the water (please ask for a monthly ticket, please recommend a ticke
The three counties of Lushui, Dieshui, and Yong'an finally regained their calm. After a year of recuperation, basically every family has surplus food, not to mention how rich, but they will not easily suffer from natural disasters.
Until a few months ago, a ninth-rank martial artist came from Dieshui County.
He has quite a few subordinates, and if the evil dragons are not counted among them, their strength is even stronger than the Qingjiao gang, which was wiped out long ago.
And their approach is only a little bit better than the people of the Qingjiao Gang, and they will not sacrifice people at will.
Every household in the three counties had to hand over more food than under King Jianghe's rule, and also offer a certain amount of gold and silver treasures.
If you don't pay, you will be treated as the chicken who made an example to others.
The people in the three counties, who managed to save a little surplus food, became poor in an instant, even poorer than before. Those people were really searching for food.
It is said that a part of the grain is harvested, but when it comes to the bottom, it is basically all harvested.
The people who harvested the grain were still plausible.
"It is Mr. Cheng Jiang who protects you from harm now. Only with him can you live in peace of mind, you know? You don't even know how to be grateful!"
To put it simply, Cheng Jiang's subordinates said that the three counties could develop with peace of mind because of Cheng Jiang's protection.
But actually?
The three counties can develop steadily for a year, which is actually the remaining prestige of Zhanjiao Grandmaster.
These people are just here to pick up a bargain.
But not many people dare to speak out, because those who dare to speak out are dead.
They are the ones who say nothing.
Not only that, but several counties next door have also been affected.
Yongfeng County, county government.
The county magistrate who originally planned to go to the three counties stayed because of Wang Sheng's appearance before, collecting ore everywhere, wanting to hug his thigh.
But the thigh was not hugged, but a notice was received, which was also a notice from the ninth-rank warrior.
"Cheng Jiang Dashou, one month later, donate five elixir? What a big appetite!"
The county magistrate naturally knew what the elixir was, and he didn't usually see a single plant of that kind, but now he opened his mouth and asked for five plants.
He was angry, but there was nothing he could do.
The imperial power has declined, and these official organizations have no prestige now because many warriors have been transferred to death.
Martial artists with a little bit of strength don't take them seriously.
It is said that quite a few of my colleagues have already been punished.
Fortunately, since I became an official, I don't say how well I have done, but I am honest and upright, so I can still stay in peace.
But with the arrival of this letter, even An Wen seemed to be unable to do so.
Ninth-rank martial artist, that is a strong man who is close to the master.
Even if the strength of the county government is not damaged, it must be well maintained.
"My lord, what should we do now?"
The master also knew about what happened last time, so he followed the county magistrate unswervingly, wanting to hug his thigh together.
Unfortunately now I'm in trouble.
"First send someone to the mountain to look for the elixir to show off. I don't think that person will be around for long!"
"Master County Magistrate, you mean..." The master seemed to have realized something.
"That's right, it's that lord. Why did Cheng Jiang dare to be so arrogant? Didn't he just find out that the lord didn't show up after repeated probing? He thought that the lord was no longer in the three counties at all!
But others know it, but don't we know it? That adult is definitely there, but most of them are living in seclusion now, so they haven't received any news.
And that lord will definitely show up, otherwise we won't be allowed to prepare iron ore. The only thing we have to do now is to wait and delay!
Once that adult is willing to make a move, then the people in the three counties will really rest easy. "
The county magistrate is very transparent.
With the power of a great master, they don't care about the gains and losses of a few counties, especially since these counties are not important counties, they pay more attention to the overall situation.
Because the Grand Master forces are very clear, as long as they control the overall situation, those chaotic small forces will naturally pledge their allegiance to them.
It's the same even at the master level.
So no matter how chaotic the place is, as long as it doesn't affect their overall plan, basically they don't care.
This is also an important factor that led to the emergence of speculators like Cheng Jiang.
The overall situation is chaotic, and the various small situations below are even more chaotic.
Speculators are terrible in this situation.
"I just don't know when this lord will come back!"
The county magistrate only hopes that it will be earlier.
Five elixir, he still doesn't know where to find them.
If he didn't show up within a month and didn't find the elixir, he would just run away.
No matter how important the thigh is, it is not as important as saving one's own life.
...
With this, Dieshui County is notified, and this can be regarded as a county full of disasters.
The headquarters of the Qingjiao Gang was here before, and now Cheng Jiang is also here.
In the final analysis, it is because this county is the most prosperous and the best built.
The county government office is the best real estate in Dieshui County. Cheng Jiang lives here, and it is also here that his subordinates report news every day.
"My lord, we have already collected hundreds of thousands of catties of grain, and we are still collecting them one after another. We have also collected a lot of elixir. For some reason, there are so many elixir around here that we found ten of them within a month. A different kind of elixir."
After Cheng Jiang heard the elixir, a smile appeared on his face.
There are more than ten kinds of elixir. Sure enough, it is right to follow the forces of those great masters.
Sure enough, Shuzhou has great benefits.
"Continue to collect elixir, food can be less, but elixir cannot be less, you know?"
The elixir has a wide range of uses, and it has a great effect on the master. This time, he wants to make enough money, and then sell himself later, and he can make another wave.
"Yes, my lord, we have written a letter to inform the government to look for it, and we must be able to obtain a lot of elixir."
"Good job, is there anything else?"
The person who reported nodded and said: "There are also some adults, because of the food collection and the elixir, many people are dissatisfied and caused a lot of public grievances. Some people say that the master who killed the evil dragon will definitely There is revenge on you."
He is Cheng Jiang's confidant, so he dares to say many things that others dare not say. What Cheng Jiang likes most about him is that he never whitewashes information.
"Don't worry about it, it's just a group of ordinary people with little power, so what's the resentment, they have nothing to do with me, let them die a few more people and they will be quiet. As for the master, can he get me if he comes?"
His subordinates stopped talking, he knew the strength of his boss.
It's not a ninth-rank martial artist, but a real grandmaster!
Even if the person who slashed the dragon came, he could still retreat completely.
Cheng Jiang himself thought so too, he had inquired about the matter of beheading the Jiao Jiao, the master who killed the Evil Jiao just did it by surprise, otherwise, the Evil Jiao could not have been beheaded so easily.
That person's strength may be strong, but it shouldn't be as exaggerated as rumored.
Under the condition that I was prepared, even if I couldn't beat it, the problem of saving my life was not a big problem.
And it's not necessarily impossible to beat it!
He was able to reach the Grandmaster, and he was still very confident in his own strength.
At the same time, a young man with a spear appeared on the road, with a sparrow on his shoulder and an iron mask.
On this day, one person fought for life and death in the mansion, arbitrarily deciding the life and death of ordinary people, and one person took a long gun and stepped into the border of Dieshui County...
