Chapter Seventy-Eight: Dongting Town

In the southeast of Dahongguo, there is a Dongting town.

With a population of nearly 20,000, Dongting Town has become the largest town within a radius of 100 miles, and the surrounding towns are all affiliated towns of Dongting Town.

Bazaar transactions, students studying, and martial arts halls learning martial arts have made Dongting Town like the stars holding the moon and becoming a hub within a hundred miles.

In Dongting Town, there were originally two most powerful families, one was the Ge family and the other was the Wang family.

But just five years ago, the bandits near Dongting Town attacked Dongting Town at night because of spying on the Wang family's family secret arts, and bloodied the entire Wang family.

It is rumored that the Wang family's family secret technique, the tearing charm, is a wonderful thing, driven by internal force, to beat the charm into other people's bodies. On weekdays, there is no trace at all, but as long as you use a little internal force to detonate, you can detonate the charm in the human body, which is terrifying.

But since the Wang family was bloodied by the bandits, this tearing charm fell into the hands of the bandits, and has never appeared in the rivers and lakes since. However, due to the fear of the tearing talisman, the people of Dongting Town are even more afraid of the bandits.

If it weren't for the Ge family, the only remaining big family in Dongting Town, who had led the people to fight, I am afraid that Dongting Town would have already been bullied by the bandits.

Since then, the people of Dongting Town have all been the leaders of the Ge family, and the Ge family has also become the largest force in Dongting Town and the surrounding villages and towns.

However, after the Ge family dominated Dongting Town, they did not be unkind to the rich, but took good care of the people.

Ge Shien, the head of the Ge family, although he is a weak businessman who has no power to restrain chickens, he is as his name suggests, and he is a famous and good man. He often opened warehouses to release grain and help the poor. He also led the Ge family to unite the officers and soldiers of the town to fight against the fierce and vicious bandits.

It may be that good people will be rewarded in the end, under the shadow of Ge Shi'en, the eldest young master of the Ge family, Ge Junjie, successfully entered the Heavenly Whip Sect, and at the age of his early twenties, he has the strength of the peak of the eighth grade. She Hui, the leader of the guards in the family, is the strength of the seventh grade.

It is very difficult for a martial artist to cultivate, and if there are no abundant resources, it is difficult to successfully advance. If you want to become a nine-rank martial artist, you need talent, and the seven-rank is even more difficult.

Therefore, within a radius of 100 miles, in addition to the bandits, there is only She Hui, who is the seventh grade, which is also the biggest reliance of the Ge family to resist the bandits. Even the government hired She Hui to be the head of the Keqing sect, and the status of the Ge family can be imagined.

The bandits near Dongting Town are divided into three groups, although most of the people have not really faced the bandits, but they all know that among the three groups of extremely vicious bandits, there are at least two seven-rank martial artists.

If because of the mutual constraints between these three groups of bandits, they did not dare to rashly attack Dongting Town alone, this would have formed a four-legged situation in Dongting Town and the other three groups of bandits.

And at this moment, a caravan came to the edge of Dongting Town.

The caravan came from Niushan Town, fifty miles away, and came to participate in the monthly market in Dongting Town, and the people of the caravan were terrified all the way, for fear of encountering bandits blocking the way. If you encounter a bandit, you can be lucky if you lose some money. If you're unlucky, I'm afraid your life won't be guaranteed.

The bandits in Dongting Town are so brutal that even the government is difficult to suppress, so they can only resist it.

Seeing the entrance of Dongting Town from afar, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and when they came to Dongting Town, they were within the scope of the Ge family's protection, and the thieves did not dare to be presumptuous.

At this time, there were two teenagers in the caravan, but they were particularly excited.

"Haha! Xian'er, I am really your lucky general, I haven't met a thief all the way!" A young man with triangular eyes, although he was very excited at this time, he still couldn't hide the strong "obscene" atmosphere, so he almost wrote the word "obscene" on his face.

"Fortune General?"

The young man known as "Xian'er" held a dexterous honey badger in his arms, and pouted: "Since I met you, the Jin Zhen clan spy wants my life, the dead man wants my life, the prince's son wants my life, and now my mentor wants my life, it's just a back to the extreme!"

Speaking of sadness, a trace of grief and indignation flashed in the eyes of the young man holding the honey badger, and he was extremely aggrieved.

The two of them and one beast are Tang Xian, Wang Ermad and Pingtou.

Listening to Tang Xian's complaints, Wang Er came over in a frenzy, squinted his triangular eyes and smiled: "Don't say that, this time you came out to travel, among a few of us, you brought me with you, obviously you value me the most, I know all this!"

Travel?

Looking at Wang Er's crazy face full of excitement, Tang Xian coughed lightly twice in embarrassment.

On the same day, Zhao also issued a second test to himself, and made it clear that Tang Xian should mention the head of a seventh-rank martial artist and go back to be the leader.

After going back, Tang Xian carefully inspected the circle, and Dian Shaoqing seemed to have been sent out by the mountain ghost to conduct some tests, and it was difficult to protect himself.

The one-hearted Taoist priest put his mind on the "Demon Breaking Heart Sutra" all day long, and his heart was empty.

Zhao Gou is even more mysterious, often not seeing anyone for several days in a row, and he doesn't know where he went, and he doesn't ask, so he must have some opportunities.

Looking at several people, Wang Ermad is the most idle, either going up to the tree to touch the bird's eggs all day long, or arguing with Hu Erniang, obviously a martial artist with nine strengths, but a few months have passed, and there has been no progress in cultivation.

So Tang Xian decisively decided to take his "most loyal dogleg" to complete this test. However, the official version is that it is a travel, which is equivalent to a business trip at public expense. Otherwise, Wang Ermad, who has a fight with Tang Xian to the extent of his life, may not be able to agree so happily.

In this way, Tang Xian even coaxed and deceived Wang Ermad to come out.

Thinking of this, Tang Xian said earnestly: "You and I are both fellow believers, of course, I value you the most!"

After Wang Ermad heard this, he was very useful, climbed up the pole, and said, "Xian'er, then you can praise me!"

Tang Xian paused, frowned and thought for a long time before solemnly patting Wang Ermad's shoulder, and said seriously: "Ermad, you are really unseemly!"

Wang Er tilted his head madly, as if he was struggling with whether this sentence would praise himself a little more or damage himself a little more.

At this moment, a loud voice came from behind him.

"Young man, it's Dongting Town ahead!"

Tang Xian looked back and saw that it was Sun Bai, the leader of the caravan.

Sun Bai is a middle-aged man, who seems to have been under great pressure in life, slightly hunchbacked, but has a unique essence of a businessman in his eyes.

Coming to his side, Sun Bai smiled heartily: "The little brother said that the book is really wonderful, thanks to your commentary along the way, you can relieve the pressure and forget the fear from the bandits!"

"Haha, uncle is serious!" Tang Xian responded with a fist clenched.

It's still the old way, relying on the skill of storytelling to rub the caravan's carriage.

At this time, Sun Bai came over and said mysteriously: "Little brother, isn't what you storytellers care about the most is the disputes on the rivers and lakes? I have a message here that I can provide to you!"

"What?" Tang Xian asked curiously.

Sun Bai said: "I heard that recently, Ge Junjie, the eldest young master of the Ge family in Dongting Town, came home from the Heavenly Whip Sect to visit his relatives, he was young and ambitious, and he was high-spirited, and he was posting heroic posts, gathering people from surrounding villages and towns, planning to exterminate those three bandits who killed a thousand knives! If you stay in Dongting Town for a few more days, such a good story will definitely be even more wonderful to tell in the future!"

"Oh?" Tang Xian raised his eyebrows and said, "Then I have to see this show with my own eyes! Thank you uncle!"

After that, Tang Xian took Wang Ermad and Sun Bai separately and walked towards the interior of Dongting Town.
