Chapter 267: Life Is So Cruel

Walking out of the conference hall, he saw Bai Zhi discussing matters with Wang Yong, the elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and the head of the Chen family. Sending Zhou Xuanfeng and the others away, Wang Yong said with a big grin: "Chu Zheng, do you have something to do with me?"

Chu Zheng said: "Elder Wang, the head of the Chen family, Chu Zheng did have something to discuss with the two of them. I have reached an agreement with Bai Banyuan, some of the relatives of these people under my command are still in the Xiyue tribe, and I have promised to take their relatives over to reunite with them, and at the same time, I also need a large number of spiritual materials and spiritual plants. The agreement reached after negotiation with Bai Banyuan was that they would take people outside Qujingkou, and I would also pay them a large amount of food. Now the problem I am facing is that I have to pass through three tribes to get to Qujingkou, two of which are occupied by two, and one is occupied by none. I discussed with the two of them in the hope that the two seniors would be accommodating in order to fulfill my promise to my subordinates and complete the agreement with Bai Banyuan. ”

"Brother, you're an enemy. The head of the Chen family frowned slightly. Although Chu Zheng did not say it explicitly, he knew very well that even if there was more food, he would not be able to exchange the spiritual materials and spiritual plants produced by the Xiyue tribe, and the scope of the transaction would definitely include pills and magic weapons. As for the gold and silver spirit stones, there is really no shortage of Xiyue tribes.

Wang Yong waved his hand and said: "What kind of enemy is not an enemy, you just pass by me, I don't see it." Then he turned around and was about to leave.

Most of the people in the Heavenly Sword Sect have clear grievances. The last time the people of the Sword Yuan Sect pretended to be a monk of the Heavenly Sword Sect and went to Lanbian Market Town to kill civilians, Chu Zheng didn't say anything, but the people of the Heavenly Sword Sect remembered this matter in their hearts. It's just a way to borrow, and the last time it was settled.

"Don't go, Elder Wang. Chu Junsheng grabbed Wang Yong with tears and laughter, and said in his heart that this person is really simple in talking and doing things.

Wang Yong asked, "If there is anything else, you can say it." ”

Chu Zheng said: "That's right, whether it's from the transaction between me and Bai Banyuan, or for other commercial and trade circulation and immigration relocation in the future, there is no decent road from me to Qujingkou, and there is no place to rest and stay on the way." So I'm going to build a five-zhang wide bluestone road from me to Qujingkou, and it's best to have an inn every 100 miles on the bluestone road. If the trade between me and Bai Forbidden Yuan can continue, this road will definitely become the most important trade route in the Southeast Region, and it will surely become prosperous along the way. I think so, I will repair it, and if Elder Wang sends someone to work, I can also pay for it. At the same time, I will leave a transit fee for the Heavenly Sword Sect at a rate of five percent, for example, if I have one million stone grain to cross the border from you, I will leave 50,000 stone as a toll. ”

"I'll fix the route...... It's better for you to fix it. Wang Yong sighed with some embarrassment, "Those cubs under my command, you let him use a knife to cut people, but let them do some effort, but they all ran away." It is impossible to ask them to help build the road, let alone think about it. As for the cost, I will pay for it, including the monthly fee and material fee you pay. Don't say anything, this fee is out of my heart, and it will be an obstacle to my realm ascension. As for the transit fee, I can get a lot of cheap food and drink. ”

Chu Zheng nodded. Wang Yong has said this, and he really can't say anything more.

"Okay, I'm leaving. Wang Yong strode out, Chu Zheng was just about to say a few polite words, then turned around and laughed twice with some embarrassment.

Chu Zheng saw that there was something wrong with this, and said, "Elder Wang has something to do, but please speak." ”

"This ...... The sect sent a steward of the Foreign Affairs Hall to manage the mess in the territory. That guy didn't know why his brain was pumping, he said that Lanbian County has actually been recognized as a non-war area by Bai Banyuan, so he wants to build a hundred green buildings close to Lanbian County......"

"One...... Hundred!" Chu Zheng looked up at the starry sky, and he really didn't know whether to admire or laugh. This is to build a hometown of green buildings!

He said that the territory of Jianqinglou has the fastest development, and he also said that he will definitely be able to feed back to the sect within half a year...... I think you're doing a good job in Lanbian Market Town, do you think he's okay to pay attention to this? I always feel unreliable. ”

Is it okay?

Looking at Wang Yong's sincere eyes, Chu Zheng said: "It still takes half a year, not a hundred, just thirty or fifty." Within three months, it will definitely feed back to the Heavenly Sword Sect. It's just that Elder Wang must be mentally prepared, I'm afraid that fights will happen from time to time. ”

"That's okay, when the gang of cubs under my command is fine, they are still fighting with their senior brothers, and there are 1,800 people in the sect who don't die every year, and everyone thinks it's fresh. ”

"It's just that Elder Wang is so determined, there can be no fighting in the Qinglou, as long as there is a fight, you will punish you, so that everyone will have a sense of security, and it would be better if Elder Wang ensured the personal safety of the monks in the northwest wilderness of the Xiyue tribe. It is better to build a fighting platform, and if there are contradictions, let everyone fight to the death on the fighting platform. ”

Bai Zhi pursed her lips beside her and smiled: "Elder Wang, don't forget that the Doufa Platform also collects money, and it can still let everyone watch the excitement, right?" ”

"That makes sense!" Wang Yong's eyes lit up, "I'll send someone over to talk to you about specific matters in a while." ”

After finishing speaking, Wang Yong left in a hurry.

Chu Zheng looked at the head of the Chen family and said, "Master Chen, you also heard what I discussed with Elder Wang just now. I think so, I will repair the road through the Chen family's territory, or the toll is five percent, I don't know what the Chen family thinks?"

"The monks under your command are very busy, I should repair the road, you can just give me the fee when the time comes. The head of the Chen family touched his goatee with a smile, "But I think since the road passes by me and it is still to send food to the Xiyue tribe, then Bai Forbidden Yuan should not attack my Chen family's territory." ”

"I'm not qualified to agree to this, the head of the Chen family can talk to Bai Banyuan, and I can increase the transit fee to six percent. Chu Zheng smiled faintly and said, "Lanbian County is not a non-war area recognized by Bai Forbidden Yuan, but my Lanbian County has a geographical advantage here, and it belongs to the rear. At the same time, Bai Banyuan had seen the big array in my territory, and he thought that he couldn't attack it, so he didn't have this idea. ”

"Oh, okay. I'll send someone to contact Dutong about this. The head of the Chen family left with great interest.

"Why is there such a big gap in life!" When the Chen family master left the station, Bai Zhi snorted angrily and frowned, "It's really a person under his command who fights bravely all day long, so we have no choice but to let us do it, but all the expenses are paid, and there is no need for transit fees." One not only wants to pay for the crossing, but also wants to work himself to earn a sum from us, whether this road is built in his territory or ours. ”

Chu Junsheng also shook his head. "He also wants to use this to become a non-war area, and the head of the Chen family really dares to think about it. We are here with the tacit understanding of the commander of the capital, his geographical location is special, if Bai Banyuan clearly does not attack the territory of the Chen family, the activity area of the Xiyue group to attack the southeast region will be compressed, and the space for flashing and moving will be much smaller. ”

"The gap between people is already huge. Chu Zheng said, "It can't be said that the head of the Chen family is wrong, he pays attention to interests." The Heavenly Sword Sect is clearly divided into grievances and grievances, and interests are not as important as affection in their eyes. ”

Turning around and walking into the cave where Jiang Chuqing was being held, Chu Zheng didn't sit down and stood there and said directly: "You can go." ”

Jiang Chuqing didn't leave in a hurry, but looked at Chu Zheng. Although it was only two hours apart, her face had recovered a lot, and she had become as radiant as a fairy in the eyes of others, but there was a trace of indifference that rejected people thousands of miles away, and there were more doubts about thinking. Curious and cautious, he asked, "You...... You just said that I can be free tomorrow, why ...... now?"

"Are you still used to it?" Chu Zheng snorted, "Whether you are right or wrong, whether you are a top ten genius or not, whether you are a beauty or not, if you want to kill me, I will kill you." But you can't be a threat to me now, and I want to find out how my mother died with you. I'm sure you can't help but pay attention to any related news. ”

Jiang Chuqing nodded slowly. What I hear every day is what happened to Chu Zheng's mother, and I repeatedly say it endlessly, twelve hours a day, although I am very disgusted with anything about Chu Zheng's mother, and even hear his mother's name I have a headache, but I have to admit that Chu Zheng forcibly left his mother's imprint in his heart, and he will involuntarily explore anything related to his mother. Even if Chu Zheng says it clearly now, he will still explore.

"Originally, I thought that your Qianyun Sect Elder would bring up your matter with me when he came here, so I said two hours ago that you would be free tomorrow, but your Qianyun Sect Elder Li didn't mention it, I don't have any expectations about whether you can find out any news, maybe I think your status in the Qianyun Sect is too high. But since I promised you, Chu Zheng will do what he says, so now you can go. ”

Jiang Chuqing's expression was a little gloomy.

He is one of the top ten geniuses, he is a big Wednesday beauty, and he is the pride of the sky of the Qianyun Sect, but the elders of the sect did not mention themselves when they went to the Lanbian station to participate in the tripartite meeting, and this psychological gap made Jiang Chuqing suddenly feel a little at a loss.

Silently walked out of the cave, but Jiang Chuqing stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the quiet and beautiful environment under her feet, looking at the bustling market town not far away, she didn't know where to go.

"Do you feel lonely sometimes?"

Jiang Chuqing's words had no beginning or end, and Chu Zheng, who had just walked out of the cave, was stunned for a moment, not knowing what kind of psychology she was in now, maybe it was just the desire to tell.

Standing beside Jiang Chuqing, also looking at the market town not far away, Chu Zheng shook his head, "I don't have time to think about whether I'm lonely, and I don't have the energy to understand whether I'm lonely." Have you ever heard a phrase?"

Jiang Chuqing turned his head and his eyes were clear, and Chu Zheng said: "In addition to useless physical suicide and spiritual escape, the third suicidal attitude is to persist in struggle and fight against the absurdity of life. You and I are mortal enemies, but it is ridiculous to stand here talking about our hearts, and the reason why this is so is because your spiritual escape has killed Jiang Chuqing, the former fairy in the clouds. ”

Chu Zheng turned around and walked down the mountain road.

Persisting in struggle causes me to wander on the edge of life and death all the time, not to fight against the absurdity of life, but to face the cruelty of life.

Quiet duty is like a pig's life, but the heart is dead.

Or perseverance and struggle, which can die at any time.

Life is so cruel!
