Chapter Twenty-Three: Sending the Plague God Away

The moon is in the sky, the waves are rolling, and the waves are cheerfully playing the music of a quiet night on the beach.

But soon a loud noise broke the silence, and behind a palm forest, Li Qian and Bao Chang and several other Donghai County guards were stunned to look at the mess in the distance, the boulders cracked, the sand and stones flew wildly, the huge fireballs rose into the air, and the surrounding trees felt the power of the huge shock wave, and the branches trembled.

"Although it was the second time I watched it, I didn't expect it to be so shocking. Cheng Chao sighed as he twisted his gray beard.

Li Qian gradually recovered from the shock, the power of this thing was a hundred times and a thousand times the power of the kind of gunpowder that his little sister had brought back! He walked forward quickly, and Bao Chang and the others followed behind. When I got closer, I saw that a huge rock that had been specially placed for the test had broken apart and exploded, and many pieces had been blown away two or three hundred steps away, which showed the amazing power of this explosive.

"This explosive is so powerful!" Li Qian said as he looked back at Xu Yi and Cheng Cheng in disbelief.

Xu Yi touched his nose and said: "This is the power of two catties of TNT explosives, if the weight is increased, the power will be even greater." ”

Li Qian was a little speechless, looked at the big pit underground, and muttered: "This is not spiritual power, he doesn't use the slightest spiritual power, he just mixes some ordinary and inconspicuous things together, and he can get such a powerful weapon! If he has this thing, even if he is an ordinary person, he can have the power to fight! Where should we spirit people go?"

Cheng Chao said slowly: "Your idea is a little narrow-minded, if we spirits also use this thing, wouldn't it be more advantageous when we fight? Not to mention that the manufacture of this thing is very difficult with manpower, and only the gold-based spirits use alchemy to make it, so it can be fast." ”

A word woke up Li Qiang: "What Uncle Cheng said is very true, if both spirits and ordinary people use this thing, I can use spiritual power to resist this thing, although I can't defend it all, but it can always reduce the damage, and ordinary people's flesh and blood, how to resist? ”

Then Li Qian looked back at Xu Yi and said, "You just used this thing to kill the sand devil?"

Xu Yi bowed his head and said: "Exactly, I have already said the details of the situation earlier. ”

Li Qian said: "This explosive is so powerful, I believe that you killed the sand devil! You have made a great achievement, and you will return to Donghai City with me later, and there will be another reward from the county guard's mansion." ”

Xu Yi salivated and smiled: "How much money will be rewarded?"

Cheng Chao frowned, and said: "I am also the head of a village, how can I only ask for wealth all day long?"

Xu Yi frowned and said: "Lao Cheng, I am a mortal with seven emotions and six desires, I want to live in a big house, I want to have endless money, I want to have a group of wives and concubines around me, I am not as noble as you." ”

Li Qian smiled slightly and said: "Everyone has their own advantages, Village Chief Xu is also a man of temperament, and he does not hide what he likes and loves, which I appreciate very much." Li Qian said this, but he thought in his heart: "This person is extraordinary, and he can make explosives, so he can be excellent, and it is rare that all he asks for is wealth, and he can collect it for his own use." ”

Cheng Chao frowned and said: "Village chief, you have such great ability, you should think about how to benefit the human race, as the so-called poor will be good alone, and good will help the world." With great ability comes great responsibility. ”

Xu Yi was a little annoyed by Cheng Cheng's preaching, and said perfunctorily at the moment: "I know, Lao Cheng, when I am really developed, how about I help the world again?"

On the edge of the beach, five hundred sergeants were guarded at five steps and a sentry at five paces, and a post at ten paces, and Li Qian instructed Bao Chang: "Pass the order, what you see tonight, you must not reveal a single word to go out, otherwise the military law will be engaged!" Bao Chang and other officers responded.

Turning around, Li Qian said: "I heard that you are also going to participate in the expedition this time, but seeing that you are a rare talent, if you are willing to serve my county guard, I can beg my father to exempt you from the expedition order." ”

Xu Yi said with a bitter face: "It's too late to say it now." And he immediately said that he had established the mantra.

Li Qian was very sorry when he heard this, and thought about it, there was still a year before the expedition, and he had to let Xu Yi go to Donghai City earlier, and in this year, he would leave everything he knew, which could be regarded as making the best use of everything.

At that moment, Li Qian said: "In this case, after dawn, I will ask Village Chief Xu to clean up and set off with me to Donghai City as soon as possible, explain this matter to the county guard, and also help you fight for a reward." After all, it was the first time in 500 years that our human race had successfully killed the sand demon and obtained the corpse, which was a great achievement. ”

Xu Yi immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I also want to go to Donghai City as soon as possible." "I have been nested in this small fishing village for too long, and Xu Yi still wants to go to a big city in another world to see and understand.

"However, I will take my daughter-in-law and my two brothers with me. ”

"Listen to me. Li Qian smiled, on this long trip, he found the place where the breach of the enchantment was, he had already gone down to the sea during the day to see, the breach had been repaired, and the surroundings were carefully investigated, only one sand demon broke into Donghai County, and he had been killed, and he also collected talents like Xu Yi to find the new armament of explosives, which was not worth the trip.

It was dawn soon, Xu Yi returned home, Luo Ming, Yin Xian, and Jiao Za were all waiting there, and they were all relieved to see Xu Yi come back safely.

"How?, does the deputy county guard believe it?" Luo Ming hurriedly asked.

Xu Yi laughed and said, "How can you not believe it? He also recruited me on behalf of the county guard, so let's return to Donghai City with him today." ”

"Shall we leave today?" Luo Mingqi said.

Xu Yi nodded and said, "Yes, daughter-in-law, this trip to Donghai City, there will be a reward, and I will take you to enjoy the blessings." And my two good brothers are going with me!"

Yin Xian was overjoyed and said: "Thank you, eldest brother, you haven't forgotten our brothers when you are developed." ”

Jiao Za said a little honestly: "But spring ploughing has just arrived, what about the grain that has just been planted?"

Yin Xian said: "Are you still afraid that no one will plant the land? Even if you entrust the land to the patriarch, he will send someone to cultivate it, and we will come back next year to continue planting." ”

Luo Ming said: "Then I'll go pack my luggage, do you want to bring the vegetable worms?"

Xu Yi said with a smile: "As the so-called one person ascends to heaven with a chicken and dog, of course the vegetable worm must be brought." ”

In the afternoon, the village beat gongs and drums, the four people carried Xu Yi in a sedan chair, and sent it to the entrance of the village in red and hanging colors, Luo Ming and Yin Xian brought luggage, and Jiao Za drove a carriage, which was sent by Elder Xu, and they all arrived at the entrance of the village to wait.

Xu Yi and Luo Ming's land and houses in the village were handed over to Elder Xu to take care of, in fact, everyone knew that Xu Yi would not come back, and Elder Xu was already planning how to divide the land and real estate.

Xu Yi also saw Elder Xu's thoughts, so he reminded: "Old man, don't you want to swallow my land and property, next year I will go on an expedition, my two brothers will come back and continue farming, and the fields and properties under my name must be left to them, otherwise when I ask the county guard to come forward to ask for it, everyone will not look good." ”

Elder Xu hurriedly agreed, this Xu Yi is not a helpless substitute for the village chief of the dead ghost now, he climbed the two big trees of the Donghai Cheng clan and the Donghai County Shoufu, and his little Luohe Xu clan really can't afford to offend.

After waiting for a while, I saw Li Qian and Bao Chang leading five hundred soldiers to come, and the team used a four-headed carriage to pull the huge body of the sand demon to set off, and there were also water spirits who kept taking turns to freeze the corpse with water condensation to ensure that the corpse did not decay.

Li Qian rode on the horse, saw Xu Yi who was sitting in a sedan chair, and smiled slightly: "Are you ready? Do you want to ride a horse? I asked the sergeant to prepare a horse for you." ”

Xu Yi didn't know how to ride a horse, so he hurriedly said: "Forget it, it's better to take a sedan chair." ”

Li Qian nodded, waved his hand and shouted, "Let's go!"

In this way, Xu Yi sat in a sedan chair, Luo Ming and the three of them took a carriage, and Li Qian led five hundred soldiers to take the body of the sand demon on the road to Donghai City. The villagers of Luohe Village were sent ten miles away, shedding tears and saying goodbye, all thinking that they had finally sent away this plague god......

Because the team brought the corpse of the sand devil, many people came to watch it along the way. Every time they passed through a village, it caused a huge sensation, after all, after retreating into the Donghai County enchantment five hundred years ago, the human race had never seen the true appearance of the sand demon people again, and there were many onlookers everywhere they went.

And Xu Yi, the hero who killed the sand devil, naturally became the object of onlookers, and many people offered wine, food, and money to Xu Yi along the way, Xu Yi instructed Yin Xian and Jiao Za to not refuse to come, and accept all courtesies.

On this day, I arrived at Luohai County, this county is not small, surrounded by earthen walls, three streets and six cities, and the population is also quite large.

When the team marched into the city, it attracted all the empty alleys of the city to come to the roadside to watch the corpse of the sand demon man, and to see Xu Yi, the legendary demon slaying hero, with their own eyes!

Xu Yi felt like Wu Song, and after fighting the tiger, he won people's respect. And the carriage of the harvested gifts had already been piled up, so Xu Yi asked Luo Ming to distribute them to the accompanying sergeants.

Those sergeants didn't have Li Qiang's orders, and they didn't dare to accept those gifts, and finally Xu Yi talked to Li Qiang, and Li Zong smiled and said: "Since it is a piece of the heart of the demon killing hero, everyone will accept it." ”

With Li Zong's permission, the sergeants accepted the wine, food, and money, and they were all happy. However, Xu Yi has a new understanding of Li Qiang's prestige in the army, it is really forbidden to enforce orders, and no one dares to disobey military orders, which is really rare.

That night, he stayed in Luohai County for one night, and the county order of Luohai County held a feast to entertain Li Qian and kill the demon hero Xu Yi and other people, during the banquet, the county lieutenant of Luohai County, the main book, the sacrificial wine, and the patriarchs of various clans in the city came to accompany each other to celebrate, so it was not lively.

Xu Yi was very drunk, although the alcohol in the other world was not high, similar to the beer of the earth, but it still couldn't stand the crowd, everyone wanted to come and have a drink with the demon killing hero, Xu Yi was drunk like this.

In the end, Yin Xian and Jiao Za carried Xu Yi back to the post house where he was staying, Luo Ming followed behind, listening to Xu Yi still talking nonsense as he walked: "I still want to drink, this is much better than the beer of the earth......"

Yin Xian and the two were also elated, and they had a feeling of raising their eyebrows.

"Alas, just now, the county magistrate heard that we are the brothers of the eldest brother, and they all gave me two toasts. ”

"I really can't imagine that one day, I will be able to sit and drink with so many dignitaries!"

Luo Ming shook her head, smiled and didn't speak, just listened to the three brothers' nonsense.

After the two sent Xu Yi back to the room, Luo Ming said, "I'll take care of him, you can go back and rest." ”

The two said: "There is a sister-in-law Lao." Then they went back to their houses and went to sleep.

Luo Ming took off Xu Yi's clothes, shoes and hats, settled him on the couch, and prepared some hot water for him to wipe himself. Seeing that Xu Yi was very uncomfortable after drinking, Luo Ming got up and went out of the house, and wanted to find some honey in the kitchen to mix some honey water for him to drink.

When he came to the kitchen in the backyard, Luo Ming hadn't entered the house yet, but he heard a person on the courtyard wall whispering: "Sister Ming, it's me!" looked up, but it was Xu Cheng lying on the courtyard wall.
