"My lord, the brothers from Lingxian have returned, and there is no danger on the way." Shen Lian's words were simple and shocking, his eyes were a little ungodly, but his voice was magnetic.

"Well, now that the mountains are moving, can you find anomalies?" Zhao Zongwu frowned slightly, and asked about the basic situation of the Shandong earthquake.

Lu Wenzhao glanced at Lu Jianxing beside him, and said in a low voice: "According to the rumors known in the capital, the political envoy Si Tongyu was announced by Shandong Cheng.

This time, the earth dragon turned over, only affecting the territory of Yanzhou Mansion, Jinan Mansion, and Dongchang Mansion.

Although there was a disaster and the houses were damaged, with the help of the local government, they all helped the people as much as possible and recovered unnecessary losses......"

What Lu Wenzhao is talking about is the situation spread by the official, but the actual situation is far more serious than this.

Then the topic continued, Lu Jianxing's brows furrowed, and his words were even more angry: "But according to the actual understanding of the lowly position, the rumors in the capital can only be trusted by one-twelve.

The earth dragon that appeared this time turned over, the range was wide, the fluctuations were huge, and the losses were heavy!

It's unbelievable!

According to the refugees, when the earth dragon turned over, the house shook and the ground shook, the sound was like thunder, the ground cracked and the spring gushed, the chickens and dogs barked, and the city wall burst out!

There are even some local officials, in order to whitewash the peace and avoid punishment from the imperial court, and even deliberately conceal the disaster! ”

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes and heard it with your own ears, no one would have believed that this situation of the earth dragon turning over and the disaster that was announced in Shandong Chengcheng was so serious!

Bullying the upper and lower.

It is precisely because of such measures that unimaginable famines have occurred in various parts of Shandong, and natural disasters will inevitably lead to man-made disasters.

In the Ming Dynasty, where the speed of information circulation was not smooth, because of the backward means of communication, there was no doubt that the local parents and officials were like the emperor in one place.

This time, because of the gathering of refugees, Nanpi has a very strict control over entering the city, and in order to avoid accidents, Zhao Zongwu and they did not enter Nanpi for repair.

The team then continued southward to the south of the canal and set up camp at the canal.

As the main supply artery of Gyeonggi, the root of ensuring the political, economic, and military core of the capital is that this canal, which originated in the Sui Dynasty and has been renovated and perfected over generations, has led to today's Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.

As an important channel to communicate the north and south in the feudal era, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal has always played a very important role.

Repairing at the canal is also considered the safest place.

Late at night, in Daming, who does not have the 'Sky Eye System', there will be many potential safety hazards, and if you want to ensure safety, that round of whistle alert is the most effective way.

The light and dark sentinels have been arranged, and the people who are resting in the camp are all sleeping with knives in their arms.

"My lord! Less than three miles from my camp, a team of nearly fifty or so people appeared. It looks like a bunch of smugglers. ”

When Zhao Zongwu and the others were communicating, Jin Yichuan walked quickly with a serious expression, and his words were even more vigilant.

After returning from his master, Jin Yichuan brought his senior brother Ding Xiu and brought back more than 50 disciples from the outer sect, for which Zhao Zongwu made proper arrangements.

Among them, there were more than ten outer disciples, all of whom were left by Ye Chao's side for him to send.

When he first came, Ding Xiu behaved extremely unruly, ignoring everyone, and defeated Ling Yunkai, Ding Tai, Ding Chong and others one after another during this period.

Although he recognized Lu Wenzhao and Ding Baiying, it was Zhao Zongwu who really made him honest.

Secret duel, no one has ever seen.

But afterwards, Ding Xiu listened to Zhao Zongwu's words alone, and all day long, he followed behind Zhao Zongwu, not leaving an inch.

After listening to what Jin Yichuan said, Zhao Zongwu's eyes flashed with essence, and with thought, he paused for a moment and let Jin Yichuan lead the way.

Although it is not the time for the White Lotus Sect to revolt, in Shandong, there are not only this side of the force, but also other mixed forces.

Although there are many plains, the eastern and southern regions are hilly and mountainous, while the plains are narrow.

The complex geographical environment also makes Shandong's taxation a big problem.

Poverty is a very distant existence for the upper class in Shandong, but it is a very common phenomenon for the vast number of people struggling to make ends meet.

It is precisely because of poverty that the people of Shandong have that blood in their chests.

And there are many sects and sects in the territory, but whenever there is an incident that cannot be lived, it is definitely a very common thing to gather people to revolt and rebel!

Why did the sects and sects led by the White Lotus Sect continue to be banned and become more and more prosperous?

The reason for this is that its teachings are more deceptive, and they can fill their stomachs by overthrowing the rule of the empire and being the master of their own affairs.

This alone can make these mud legs play with their lives to protect!

Jin Yichuan walked in front, Zhao Zongwu followed behind, and Ding Xiu, who was resting with his eyes closed, had a Miao knife straddling his shoulder, his eyes exuding rebelliousness, and Shen Lian, Lu Wenzhao, and Lu Jianxing also followed.

The camp set up by Zhao Zongwu itself is four or five miles away from the canal, and the gang of smugglers is only one or two miles away from the canal.

said that he was a smuggler of salt, but the leader was a rich man who was dressed extraordinarily, and the rich man was the leader, with fair skin, handsome appearance, and a little feminine in his gestures.

However, the black samurai suit with a goose sword hanging on his waist highlighted his heroic spirit.

The six family members who followed left and right, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this group of guys was by no means as simple as they saw.

It's just that the more than 40 illegal salt dealers on the periphery have made their grade drop by a big grade.

Zhao Zongwu and they were just investigating, but what people didn't expect was that before they arrived, the team that needed them to investigate came out of it.

That man was the rich man at the head of the team.

"Brothers, the younger brother Dongchang Mansion, named Marriott, has no intention of offending you to rest, but because of one or two personal matters, you have to camp here.

Rest assured, we will never bother you.

It was still a little cold, and the younger brother had nothing else to prepare, so he offered the hometown wine and invited the brothers to laugh. ”

The Marriott held a knife in both hands, and his words were respectful, and as he spoke, the two who followed followed him, and stepped forward with two large jars of wine......

Listening to what Marriott said, the corners of Zhao Zongwu's mouth raised a little smile, and he glanced at Ding Xiu, who understood it, and then said in a thick voice: "There is no need for wine."

I'm here to let you know that it's best not to have thoughts that shouldn't be, otherwise, then don't blame me for waiting, this knife is too sharp! ”

As soon as Ding Xiu's extremely unruly voice fell, Zhao Zongwu turned around and left with a sneer, a woman dressed as a man, and she had to pretend to be so upright, this team had a problem at first glance.

It's just that for Zhao Zongwu, although there are a lot of opponents, if there is a conflict, then they are by no means opponents.
