Volume 3 Baoling Prefecture Chapter 19 The Connection of Ciguang Village

Guo Erniu returned the dagger to Qi Luna, knelt in front of the grave and folded his hands, praying silently. Mu Chen and the others didn't bother, went down the hill, and waited not far away.

"Mu Chen, what should I do now?, go directly to the Demonic Beast's lair to help him take revenge?" asked Chunyue.

"Killing demonic beasts can only relieve anger, and revenge has to find someone else. ”

"Then let's go to the finance and taxation department who took them away, they don't care about the lives of the villagers here. ”

"Wait, let's see what Erniu wants to do. Guo Erniu wiped away his tears and walked down the hillside to them.

"Lord Mu Chen, the Great Patriarch, and Sister Xiaoyue, I'm going to kill all these ghouls, can you help me?"

"Yes, and then?" replied Mu Chen.

"And then... Then I'm going back to the slums and telling the villagers that the revenge for killing their families has been avenged, and that the monsters are dead. ”

"Are all the monsters dead? Don't you know they can be resurrected? What if they are resurrected, find someone to kill them again, over and over again, endlessly?"

"As long as I live, I'm going to kill them all, I..."

"Do you have what it takes? Do you have enough money to hire people? Or are you going to take the villagers with you to die?"

"I..."

"Mu Chen, what do you want to do, don't be embarrassed for him anymore. Chunyue stepped forward to dissuade her.

"Boy, the monster can never be killed, what you have to do is not to fight with your life, but to protect yourself, protect your villagers, and protect more people from being harassed by it. To learn to detect threats in advance, you should think about countermeasures in advance. ”

"Penetrating Wing can help you resist the ghouls, the Department of Finance and Taxation knew about this and forced them to take them away, why did they do this, this is the key, killing demonic beasts can't rebuild your village, only by taking back Penetrating Wing, you can continue to live here." Jiayue then said to Mu Chen.

"But I..."

"You dare to fight with the monsters, but you don't dare to fight against the powerful, use the slum control policy as an excuse, reasonably accept the persecution of fate and the existing system willingly, avoid the most obvious contradictions, and take cowardice as heroic. ”

"Mu Chen, he's just a fourteen-year-old kid, what can he do, he can't understand what you said. Chunyue defended Guo Erniu.

"I can't understand it, and I can't understand it. Boy, I'll help you this time, but in my way, okay?"

"Okay, it's all up to you. ”

"Didn't you say you hadn't seen the villagers from the surrounding villages in the slums, let's go there first and see how they are preserving themselves. With that, the group flew towards Ciguang Village on the black dragon.

The black dragon soon arrived in the sky above Ciguang Village, and the villagers clearly knew that only the patriarch could fly in the sky on the dragon in Baoling Prefecture, so they did not dare to slack off, and the village chief waited respectfully at the entrance of the village with everyone.

"Welcome Patriarch, you are the messenger of light, you are the light of heaven that illuminates our small village living on the edge of darkness, brings us hope, and gives us the courage to live. The village chief danced and praised Kiruna like a poem.

"Oh, girl, you've become the sun. Hearing Mu Chen's words, the two sisters laughed.

Ciguang Village is slightly larger, unlike Qiming Village, the houses in the village are intact, the villagers are smiling, and although the two villages are not far apart, there is no sign of being attacked by ghouls.

"A few distinguished guests came to the village for the first time, and let the villain introduce himself so that it is convenient for you to send. The villain Zhao Hong is the village chief of Ciguang Village, and his sister is the wife of Han Keen, deputy director of the Finance and Taxation Department. The villain often hears your brother-in-law mention you, saying that you are the pillar of Baoling Prefecture, as long as you are there, Baoling Prefecture will be able to benefit the people and be peaceful forever. Today, you came in person, so that the village is full of brilliance, it is really the ancestors of the accumulation of virtue, and the blessing is eternal. ”

Qi Luna was unmoved when she heard these sycophants, Mu Chen couldn't help but smile without interrupting, the sisters covered their mouths and shrugged their shoulders, only Guo Erniu stared intently at the porch of a house.

"Lord Mu Chen, the Tho Wing here has not been taken away. Guo Erniu pointed to the porch and said.

The villages living around the ghoul tombs will install winged lamps to prevent them from invading, and hang an oil lamp on a piece of about one square meter of spirit wings that are as clear as spring water, which can also play a role in deterring light-phobic monsters.

"Lord Mu Chen, it turns out that you are the head of the pioneer Mu Chen, the villain is really eyeless, I didn't recognize you and looked at Haihan, you and the patriarch are the lights of our Baoling Prefecture, even when the sun is shining, I feel the light emanating from you, it's really..."

"Okay, okay, I'll let you talk to the girl in a while, don't get in the way, stay there. Mu Chen pushed Village Chief Zhao away and walked to the house with hanging wings to take a closer look.

Qi Luna and the others followed, leaving Village Chief Zhao behind. Mu Chen's house-by-house inspection, basically installed two wing-through lamps on the front and rear porches, the more wealthy families, the house is also placed around the house, and some directly set up a lamp pole in the courtyard, nailed a simple ladder, and sewn three or four sides through the wings into an umbrella-shape, fixed on the pillar as a whole, and left empty in the middle to facilitate the hanging of oil lamps.

There is also a wooden tower in the middle of the village, which is fixed with a huge transparent umbrella composed of dozens of transparent wings. Mu Chen looked up and asked Village Chief Zhao: "I've only seen such a big translucent umbrella in the Spirit Clan, where did you get it?"

"Back to Lord Muchen, the ancestors handed down, the ancestors built the village against all odds, and used their own wisdom to make a winged lamp to resist the monsters, and left us such a large inheritance, it is really a blessing for future generations, and they dare not live up to the shadow of their ancestors to build this tower to better protect the village. Village Chief Zhao said proudly.

"Erniu, do you have so many penetrating wings in your village?"

"No, this thing is so expensive, it's good to have a side in the family, and it's the first time I've seen such a big paraparachute. Guo Erniu stared at Village Chief Zhao angrily.

"It seems that your ancestors were not diligent enough. Village Chief Zhao, let me ask you again, where did these penetrating wings come from?"

"Lord Mu Chen, where do I dare to talk nonsense about the merits of my ancestors, villain..."

"Girl, tear down the tower. Kiruna drew her dagger and walked towards the wooden tower.

"My lord, my lord, reallyβ€”" Before she could finish speaking, Kiruna jumped to the top of the tower in a few steps, making a gesture to open the parachute.

"Wait, Patriarch, wait first, don't scratch, I said... I said, these perforators are what we bought... Bought. Village Chief Zhao and the villagers looked at Qi Luna with pleading eyes.

"Bought it? This thing is from the Giant Crocodile Forest, the number is scarce, there are high-level demonic beasts rampant, few people go there, and they don't just search for Penetrate. Every family in your village has at least two sides, and there is such a big umbrella here, where did you get so much money for a village that lives on farming?

"I bought it, I bought it..."

"Did you rely on your brother-in-law's power to rob it?"

Village Chief Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "No, no, the villain doesn't dare to lie, he really bought it." ”

"You'd better tell the truth, or I'll destroy all the wings in your village right now. ”

"Lord Mu Chen, Patriarch, this piercing wing was indeed bought by me, it was really not robbed, it was really bought by a villain. After my brother-in-law became the deputy director of the Finance and Taxation Department, our village did not pay the annual tax, and the taxes and fees that should be paid every year were apportioned to the surrounding villages, and the money collected was divided between the two of us. The villain learns that ghouls have been rampant recently, so he uses the money to buy Thowing and build the tower. Although the villain embezzled taxes, he never wasted and squandered it, for the sake of the villain protecting the peace of the village, you can spare me. ”

"Since you bought these, then why did your brother-in-law take away their village's thorough wings, you still don't tell the truth..."

"The villain didn't dare to deceive, he told the truth. My brother-in-law bought the wings to sell to the wastelanders, not because of the villain. Village Chief Zhao was so frightened that his legs weakened and he knelt on the ground.

"What do the wastelanders want this for?"

"I heard that it was the merchant group of the Beijin Department who wanted to buy it, and the merchant group has always been generous, regardless of the price, and it is very profitable to do business with them. My brother-in-law discussed this matter with the villain, and asked the villain to hand over the village's thorough wing to him, but the villain refused. ”

"What's your brother-in-law's name?"

"Han Cohen, Deputy Director of the Department of Finance and Taxation. ”

"Erniu, remember this name well. Girl, come down, do you know me?"

"I don't know. Kiruna replied when she landed.

"Alright, get up, find a place for us to stay for a while, and we'll talk about it later. ”

Village Chief Zhao took Mu Chen and them into the tavern in the village, and told the boss to serve them well, while he retreated to the side, not daring to say anything.

"Mu Chen, do you really believe his words, Erniu Village's Touyi has just been taken away, and he has so many appearances here, is it really not related at all?"

"When I find that Han... You know, now everything is one-sided, this is not a black market, there are some things to obey human law, since he has been corrupted for personal gain, it is better to leave it to the council to deal with. ”

"So what are we doing here? Go back to the old man surnamed Wei. Jiayue said.

"When it gets dark, the ghouls don't go out until it's dark, and they can't run, so they avenge Erniu first. ”

"Really? Thank you, Lord Muchen. Guo Erniu on the side was happy.

"Didn't you say that killing demonic beasts was just to relieve hatred?

"Don't ask, let me arrange it. Boss, bring some drinks. ”

Wei Gonglu used a lunch time to get a windfall from Mo Cheng's mouth, he first according to Mu Chen's explanation, ordered the guards to cut off the hands and feet of the imprisoned association hooligans, and ordered people to go to the slums to find the villagers of Qiming Village to understand the situation, and then sent someone to the black market to convey the reply of the young city lord to support Li Jian City's idea, and after everything was arranged, he went out to visit the local nobles door to door, once again emphasizing the importance of Mu Chen and the method of keeping him, testing the nobles' thoughts, and confirming that everyone was on his side.
