CHAPTER XXXVII

The road is broken

——————————————

......

The man was wearing a dark robe, with a moon-white auspicious cloud pattern horn belt tied around his waist, black and dense hair, a pair of black starry eyes, and a tall figure.

It looks like a rich man, but this old man is dignified and only in his thirties.

A beard that is not too thick shows his mature temperament a lot.

He was standing at the mouth of an alley at the moment, watching his men inspect a pile of corpses in the alley.

The bodies were all children...... There are eight of them.

Who would do it to these children?

He wondered.

It wasn't until his subordinates came to report that he learned that the corpses weren't the only ones here. According to the information I have learned, there are still a few places, but they have been dealt with.

The middle-aged man asked suspiciously, "I heard before that a young man went to the General's Mansion with a pile of corpses to report the crime?"

One of his men replied, "I have already inquired." Those corpses must have been moved out of here, too!"

The middle-aged man hurriedly asked, "What about the corpse?"

The subordinates replied: "It is said that the young man burned all the corpses to ashes in a fit of anger after the general's report was ignored!"

Hearing such an ending, the middle-aged man immediately blurted out:

"Reckless!"

......

And at this moment, in an attic not far away, Jiang Heng and Nangong Beauty each performed the technique of concealment, looking at this place from afar.

After hearing the middle-aged man's words, Nangong Beauty laughed softly: "He seems to be talking about you!"

Jiang Heng didn't want to quibble, it was indeed reckless to burn those corpses before.

All he was concerned about now was, "He's the Virtuous King?"

Nangong Beauty nodded: "Virtuous King Zuoqiu, not bad...... At least it's much better than his uncle!"

"The uncle you are talking about is the current lord Zuo Feng?"

All you have to do is smile at this question.

There is no need to answer more.

......

After his subordinates collected all the bodies of the eight children, they took them to the government office and found someone to check the cause of death of these corpses.

After explaining this, King Xian Zuoqiu ordered another person:

"Go and dispatch the soldiers of the palace of this king, and send them to patrol here every day recently. Don't let this happen again!"

After King Xian Zuoqiu explained this, his subordinates were stunned: "No......!

"This is the national capital, and you are still worried that someone will dare to assassinate this king!"

Xianwang Zuoqiu said.

Here, following his words-

It's time for Jiang Heng to come out.

"Yes, this is the national capital, and there are still people slaughtering innocents here, and no one even cares about it!"

Xianwang Zuoqiu looked at the young man who suddenly appeared, limping, holding an emerald green bamboo stick, and he continued to say as he walked: "So, it's normal for something to happen to assassinate a prince!"

......

"Are you Jiang Heng?" asked Xianwang Zuoqiu.

Jiang Heng smiled: "Exactly!"

The news of Jiang Heng's reform of the Qingyan Ancient Sect had already spread all over the leaders of the major forces, and too many people were curious about what kind of existence this young man was, and he actually made Heng Song Zhenren give in.

Zuoqiu, the king of Naxian, was also one of them.

Especially after seeing Jiang Heng's reform policy, he couldn't help but say: "If this person can come to our court, it will inevitably bring a new atmosphere." ”

I met here at this moment, and I really don't know what it means.

Jiang Heng looked at the prince in front of him, who was only in his thirties, he did not have the innate arrogance of the royal family, but there was a wisdom that was particularly obvious.

He should be able to tell that his presence is not a danger to him.

Therefore, he signaled his subordinates who were already vigilant and ready for battle, and there was no need to act rashly!

Seeing this, Jiang Heng just smiled slightly.

Nangong Beauty on the side also appeared behind him, and saluted King Xian Zuoqiu: "I've seen King Xian!"

The virtuous king Zuoqiu hurriedly returned a bow.

It seems that the background of this girl around her is indeed as she estimated, and it is beyond the scope of Qingyan Country, and it is an existence in a higher realm.

At the moment, he didn't delve into this.

Instead, he pointed to the corpses of those children with the green bamboo stick in his hand and said:

"These children were sucked dry of blood by a True Martial Realm master and died. And the man's goal was to target only children...... The fact that he killed a woman yesterday without having her blood drawn is the best proof of this. ”

"How does Master Jiang know so clearly?" asked Xian Wang Zuoqiu.

Jiang Heng smiled: "Because I'm the guy you said was stupid enough to lose his body in the general's mansion!"

......

The encounter with King Xian was not long.

Compared to the method of King Xian sending people to patrol the slums, Jiang Hengzhen for those dead children.

He thought of it as a change.

Protection is only temporary, and it keeps them safe now.

And what about the future?

They are human beings after all, and they will eventually grow up, and will they become displaced and starving here for the rest of their lives?

As long as he is a human being, he has the value of existence.

Even if the value is much less than that of a practitioner, so what?

They can farm the land, plant trees, and do all kinds of manual work.

Haven't you thought about these methods?

Looking at the surprise on the face of King Xian Zuoqiu, he really didn't even think of a person like him.

Why?

Because the world is different, so the concept of existential value is also different.

Even a person like Xianwang Zuoqiu, who is indeed working for the welfare of the people, still has the difference between a cultivator and a poor person in his bones.

Even forget that they are human beings too.

They have hands and feet, even if they can't become soldiers, even if they can't become strong.

They still have their basic ability to survive.

"Master Jiang said in one word, breaking the dream!"

King Xian Zuoqiu said, "Yes, even if they can't practice like us, they can live like ordinary people......

After pausing again, King Xian's eyes lit up: "This king has a way!"

"Move these poor people outside the national capital!" said Xianwang Zuoqiu: "I remember that there was a large wasteland more than ten miles outside the city, according to the number of poor people here and the size of the wasteland. Farm this year, and next year's harvest will be enough for the poor here to be self-sufficient!"

Nangong asked beautifully, "Then how should they survive this year?"

Xianwang Zuoqiu said: "This king took out the money from the mansion, it should be enough for these people to last until next year!"

Nangong Beauty shook her head: "I have an idea!"

"Oh, Miss Nangong, please speak!"

Xianwang Zuoqiu respectfully asked.

"Sell the land!" Nangong Jiadaodao: "Sell the land ...... the slums"

Sell the land in the slums???

King Xian Zuoqiu was stunned: "But the land here ......"

Nangong Beauty shook her hand and smiled: "Leave the business affairs to me, I have a way!"
