In the early morning of Jin County, the pale golden sunlight sprinkled down from the high sky, gilding the entire small county with a layer of golden glow.

Although it is not as majestic and magnificent as the Western Chu Imperial City, it has the beauty of the general countryside.

Occasionally, a few fluttering butterflies flew from the sea of rape flowers in the county and countryside, provoking those young children and cardamom girls to stop and watch.

If you are far away from the chaos, this is just a stable, peaceful and happy town.

However, on the deserted road not far from the county office, there were countless young men in armor who were cutting wood and building houses, and these people were the disciples of the city within the city who followed Ji Yu.

And the people who are responsible for supervising and helping are naturally Ling Yue, Han Xing, Long Jia, and Fu Bang.

Long Jia and Dugu Jing used to be brothers for many years, and now it is impossible to stand by and not help.

So, even though he didn't have to build a house, he joined the queue of logging supervisors.

Just as Long Jia was carrying a war knife to cut wood, a brother came over and whispered, "Brother Long, do you think the Nine Emperor Princes have a problem with their brains?"

The war knife wielded in Long Jia's hand paused, frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense, talk less, do more!"

The brother pursed his lips and said with a look of grievance: "You said, as soon as he enters the secret realm of the earth spirit, he will kill people if he disagrees, and he is not afraid of the cold hearts of the people of Jinxian, Jinxian is occupied, how to protect it, I think he is a barbarian, he can't complete the task when the time comes, he can't get the reward, how to explain to his brother." ”

Long Jia immediately stopped chopping, and his face sank suddenly, and he wanted to be angry.

The brother immediately said with a hippie smile: "Brother Long, don't be angry, I'll just complain, I'm not thinking about my brother?"

Although Long Jia has not yet lost his anger, his face has improved.

He brandished his sword again and continued to chop trees.

The brother continued: "Brother Long, don't say anything else, just build a house, I think I'm sick." ”

"You say, we are the cultivators of Xichu, the warriors of Shangwu Pavilion, the elite disciples of the city within the city, and we are not cutting wood to repair houses, why don't he come to cut with us by himself, he lives in the county office, and he doesn't have a backache when he stands and talks. ”

"Building a house and chopping wood, am I a craftsman?"

As he spoke, he spat on the ground.

Long Jia immediately became angry, put away the battle knife, and said coldly: "I also live in the county office, if you are not convinced, I will go to Brother Yu now and repeat your words." ”

"Don't forget what Brother Yu said, if there are those who disobey, cancel the opportunity to get this spirit soldier reward, and those who refuse to accept the punishment will be expelled from the team, or killed!"

"No matter what you think of Brother Yu, Brother Yu is the person chosen by Young Master Dugu, and he can see my cultivation problem at a glance, can you?"

Suddenly, the brother was speechless.

At this moment, the people of Jin County, not far away, were in a commotion, and then began to quickly gather from various households to the sea and rushed towards the gate of the county seat.

Looking at the seemingly excited figures of the people of Jin County, Long Jia was a little puzzled.

"What happened?"

Fu Bang said with a smile: "I heard that Brother Yu set up a three-zhang piece of wood in the county seat of Jinxian County, and said that whoever can move that piece of wood to the county government can get ten taels of gold." ”

As soon as these words came out, I was even more at a loss.

Only Ling Yue, Han Xing and Fu Bang looked indifferent.

The first two are those who know, and the latter are those who are born to know.

At this time, Long Jia's outrageous brother just now scolded in a disdainful voice: "Sick, fool!"

At the gate of the county seat of Jinxian County, the remnant wall is full of grass and trees in spring.

The yellow-faced and thin-skinned people were around, and the three-foot tree was pacing around, their eyes full of curiosity, and from time to time they looked at the notice on the broken city wall, and they looked like they were eager to try.

In the crowd, there was a lot of discussion.

"What the general's notice says is really generous, but I don't know if it's true or not. ”

"Don't be stupid, there's no good thing in the sky that drops pies, I can't figure out what quirks this general has, play with us!"

"That is, which of the generals in front of the chaotic army did not have a bit of a fetish, but as a result, some villagers did not understand the situation, and they went up indiscriminately, and lost their lives in vain, and those generals in front of them, how can they be ruthless now, and kill people if they don't agree with each other!"

"That's it, forget it, don't look at it, the more you look at it, the more you look at it, the more you look at it, the more you go home to watch your wife tease the children. ”

Then, some people dispersed, and some people remained.

And from beginning to end, although people's hearts were burning, no one would believe what the notice said, and pulled the three-zhang wood to the gate of the county government.

And so, one day passes, and the next day passes.

I don't know who shouted, "Come and see, everyone, the notice on the city wall has changed!"

The people of Shili Township, Jin County, rushed out one after another, tidied up their clothes, and then gathered into a sea and headed towards the dilapidated city gate.

The three-foot tree was still standing there, and the notice had obviously changed.

As the people looked at it, they realized that the notice had not changed at all, and it was still similar to the content of yesterday's post.

The only difference is that the reward goes from ten taels to twenty taels.

It rose a few points, and the discussion started again.

"It can't be true, right, the reward has risen by ten taels of gold?"

"Brother, you think too much, but you've heard of casting a long line to catch big fish, but the general saw that no one took the bait, so he added bait. ”

"There is only one life, do it and cherish it, don't be given by this vain benefit, be careful of losing your life in vain. ”

"These chaotic armies are very bad, not credible, let's go home and play a few games of chess with the old man, eat some mulberries, and be more happy. ”

Then, some more people dispersed, leaving some behind.

But no one wants to believe what the notice says, and if no one moves the three-zhang wood, the twenty taels of gold will naturally not be rewarded.

And so it goes, day after day.

The next morning, the wind finally drove the soft clouds, blocking the sun, and there was no wind or rain or sunshine.

On the deserted road near the county office.

Long Jia's brother who was chopping wood shook his head and sighed, and said with a wry smile: "Move a piece of wood and give twenty taels of gold, people in reality don't believe it, don't talk about people in the fantasy world, ghosts only believe it!"

Long Jia said coldly: "Don't talk nonsense, cut down trees well, Brother Yu is like this, he has a deep meaning, don't you don't believe in Young Master Dugu's vision, or do you want to hand you over to Brother Yu?"

The brother sighed and said, "It's not that I always speak ill of him, you say that he does things so absurdly, how can you make me believe and be convinced?"

At this time, Fu Bang, who was carrying three knives on his back, came over.

The brothers and Long Jia's faces changed.

Fu Bang spread his hands helplessly, grinned and said with a disgusted smile: "Don't worry, I won't tell Brother Yu, it's just that I heard that the little brother has a lot of complaints, can I dare to bet?"

Long Jia just frowned and didn't speak.

The brother blushed and asked, "Bet on what?"

Fu Bang said: "Bet that someone will eventually move the three-zhang wood." ”

The brother asked, "What is the color head?"

Fu Bang said: "If I win, you tell me a beautiful woman like a flower, if you win, what do you want?"

The brother thought for a moment and said, "I don't lack anything, I just want a spirit soldier." ”

Fu Bang nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, dare to ask what is the name of Brother Tai?"

The brother bowed to Fu Bang and solemnly introduced: "I am the Huanglu Zhen clan, and Xiahou Yuan is also!"
