In the Luoxialing border mining area, during a conflict between Qiuhe Village and Xishan Village in Huangqiu Town, Yang Junshan, a young man from Xishan Village, broke through the Dantian of two incoming monks at the second level of the martial arts realm. This shocked the monks from every village in the entire mining area.
Regarding Yang Junshan's attempt to cripple people's cultivation, the monks in the villages in Mengyu County had mixed opinions. However, his "evil reputation" was completely spread this time. At least after that day of fighting, he often wandered around. But none of the suspicious people near the mine disappeared.
"Crack!"
A warm mutton-fat jade cup was slammed to the ground, splashing with pieces of white jade.
"How dare he, how dare he kill my confidant, if this revenge is not avenged, how can I, Xiong Xiying, lose my face!"
In the town hall of Huangqiu Town, Xiong Xiying was walking back and forth in the room and roaring like a trapped animal.
Under him, his clan uncle Xiong Manjiang stood there respectfully, with no expression on his face.
"No, we can't just let this matter go. This Xishan Village is just a newly promoted prominent family. He has lost his ambition and dared to provoke my Xiong family!"
Xiong Manjiang reminded expressionlessly: "It is true that the Yang family in Xishan Village is a newly-promoted family, but don't forget that they once took away a vein from Huangqiu Town, which was a Hanshan stone vein. This is not the most Only noble families in the late martial arts realm can do this, and the head of the family has repeatedly warned us not to provoke the Yang family head-on for the time being!"
Xiong Xiying became more and more irritable. Ever since he was deprived of his position as a true disciple, his temper had become more and more irritable, and his character had become more and more impetuous. He was originally assigned to guard the humiliating Huangqiu Town, but the family The middleman didn't want him to come and take office, but he was determined to come.
And when he came, his elder clan uncle who originally guarded Xiong Manjiang had no choice but to give up his position as guard and serve under his command.
"It's just a small Yang family. Why is your grandfather so cautious? Since you can't go directly to trouble them, then just continue to stick to the previous strategy and continue to harass Huangtu Town. Tell the people in Huangtu Town that they The Yang family has offended our Xiong family! We need to make them afraid and let them know who is the real boss in Mengyu County!"
The more Xiong Xiying spoke, the more atmosphere he spoke, and his voice became louder and louder. At the end, he even felt hysterical.
And Xiong Manjiang, who was standing next to him, still had a calm expression, as if he was already accustomed to Xiong Xiying's violent expression at this time.
"In fact, the people in the villages who have been harassing Huangtu Town recently have also been neglectful. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer conflicts between the neighboring villages and towns of the two towns!"
"Why?"
Xiong Xiying stopped suddenly, stared at Xiong Manjiang with her red eyes, and said: "How dare they not take the orders of my Xiong family to heart, how dare they not listen to the orders of the town office?"
Xiong Manjiang raised his head and met Xiong Xiying's eyes, and said: "It is the sowing season now, and every village is seizing the time to cultivate the spiritual valley. For fear of missing the farming season, how can there be any thought to fight with weapons? Besides, the fighting between weapons nowadays It¡¯s often the Wasteland Town that has the upper hand, and the villages in our town are always beaten to the point of running away when they fight with each other. Now that they don¡¯t attack us, how can we dare to cause trouble for them? "
"What, can't beat it?"
Xiong Xiying seemed to have heard some joke: "Aren't the children of my Xiong family mixed in among them? The martial monks among those mud-legged people are just worse than casual cultivators. If my children of the Xiong family participate, they will lose." ?"
Xiong Manjiang sighed and secretly thought that his nephew had damaged his brain over the years. He could only give orders from a high position and had no idea what the actual situation was. He could only patiently explain: "If it weren't for my Xiong family's children among them, Supervise and help, the conflict between the two towns and villages has ended long ago!"
This time Xiong Xiying finally stopped saying anything, but her blood-red eyes were fixed on him, obviously waiting for his explanation.
"The human heart! The human heart is not with us!"
"This matter has to start when the giant locust plague broke out. At that time, the Yang family in Xishan Village took advantage of the situation and sent monks besides the family to assist the villages in Huangtu Town. The 'one pound' formation was the first one developed by Xishan Village. , which is very useful in eliminating giant locust plagues. The Yang family has made a lot of jade coins with this formation, but in most cases it is provided free of charge or at a low price to the villages in Huangtu Town."
"After the huge locust plague, the Yang family only occupied the unowned spiritual fields found in the wilderness in the past two years in Huangtu Town. However, all the spiritual fields close to other villages were handed over to neighboring villages for free."
"After the disaster, thisLife for ordinary spiritual farmers has been difficult for the past two years. The price of spiritual grains in various places has remained high. The Yang family has invested a large amount of money and grain in Huangtu Town, which has suppressed the rise in spiritual grain prices. "
"All these measures have allowed the Yang family to quickly regain the support of the people in Huangtu Town. Even Yang Tiangang's position as guard was voluntarily given up by the former guard."
Seeing the disdainful and sarcastic look on Xiong Xiying's face, Xiong Manjiang sighed inwardly. He knew what Xiong Xiying was thinking. It was nothing more than bullshit people's hearts. What the cultivators talk about is that whoever has the biggest fist should listen to whoever has their fists. People's hearts are such a thing. What use is it to a monk?
In fact, he didn't really want to tell Xiong Xiying anything about winning the hearts of the people in the world. All he wanted to do was to ensure that the future heir of the family had a minimum of skills and knowledge, and could not rely on the size of his fist to do everything. solve.
Although Xiong Manjiang sighed in his heart, he continued to speak: "On the other hand, in the past two years after the giant locust plague in Huangqiu Town, the spiritual fields that appeared within the jurisdiction of the town were forcibly occupied by children from all walks of life. For this reason, there were Villagers were killed and injured because of fighting over land!¡±
"After the disaster, people's livelihood was difficult, but the family was hoarding food, constantly driving up the price of food, and making a lot of jade coins. The family's children even took advantage of the opportunity to attack everywhere. Taking advantage of the shortage of spiritual grain, they wantonly annexed the spiritual fields in the hands of spiritual farmers, and destroyed the original spiritual fields. All the owners of Lingtian have become tenants of the Xiong family"
"Okay, that's enough!" Xiong Xiying rudely interrupted the uncle's story.
Xiong Manjiang just paused and then continued: "In this way, when the guards ordered to provoke conflicts between neighboring villages in the two towns, the villagers in this town were just doing their jobs, while the wasteland town was able to unite as one under the leadership of Yang. , now the result of the fighting between the two sides"
"I said stop talking!"
Xiong Xiying interrupted Xiong Manjiang's words again and again: "Uncle, what do you mean? These words are talking about the family, aren't they?"
Xiong Manjiang frowned and said, "I'm not"
"Okay, you don't need to say more," Xiong Xiying waved his hand and said, "I have already decided. Uncle, go to the Luoxialing Mine to take a look and take charge of the affairs there. Here in Huangtu Town You don¡¯t have to worry about it!¡±
Xiong Manjiang was stunned for a moment. He wanted to say something but saw Xiong Xiying staring at him. In the end, he said nothing and turned around and left the town office silently.
Xiong Xiying looked at his back silently, but his eyes suddenly darkened. He, Xiong Xiying, was not a fool. How could he not hear that Xiong Manjiang's words actually made sense?
But he also knew that after he lost his identity as a true disciple of the Shaking Sky Sect, there had been voices within the family questioning his position as heir. He knew that this was the fault of his brothers and the elders behind them, and This cousin is actually one of these people.
This is why he insisted on coming to Huangqiu Town as a guard in the first place, in order to suppress Xiong Manjiang and weaken his influence in the family.
"All those who plotted against me will die in the future"
After collecting a sum of jade coins from the storage bags of the two martial arts monks, Yang Junshan handed the jade coins to Lin Chengsi and asked him to distribute them to all the villagers who participated in the fighting today as a way to recuperate their wounds. of pension.
These villagers are all spiritual farmers who have cultivated themselves. Even if they have short legs and broken arms, it would take ordinary people during the day or even half a year to be able to work well, but they can be as normal as usual in only half a month at most, and they can make a fortune for nothing. Jade coins subsidize the family, and naturally everyone is happy.
"The young owner seems to have gone too far this time!"
Although Lin Chengsi had a close friendship with Yang Tianggang, he never acted like an elder when talking to Yang Junshan: "Just injure them and then let them go. It would be better to extort some jade coins from them." The two Dantians have a deadly feud! What's more, the useless Dantian always has a bad reputation. Even if it is Huangqiu Town who stirs up trouble this time, others may not be on our side. "
Yang Junshan served a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Senior, you said that in view of the festivals of the Yang family and the Xiong family, if I release them this time, they will be grateful to the Yang family, and the previous grudges will be wiped out?"
"Well" Lin Chengsi had a sly expression.
Yang Junshan smiled slightly and said: "I'm afraid not only will I not be grateful, but I will think that I let them go this time because I was afraid of the Xiong family and have never become more unscrupulous, right?"
Lin Chengsi said "Hey" and his face became a little hot.
¡°So instead of letting them go back, it¡¯s better to cripple their cultivation and at least weaken the other party¡¯s strength!¡±
Yang Junshan saw Lin Chengsi¡¯s expression getting darker and darker.Embarrassed, I wanted to change the topic, but saw that he was holding a heavy blue leather baggage in his hand, so he smiled and said: "Is this why the senior asked the junior to talk about this? By the way, what good things are in this baggage?" "
"I almost forgot about the real thing," Lin Chengsi patted his forehead, and then said mysteriously: "These are a few raw stones of spiritual minerals that I found in our mine. Guess what I found?" What? High-grade spiritual material Cangyu Stone!¡±
