Chapter 153: Checks and Balances
The disciples of the Zhiyan Sect, when they saw the head of the poisonous dragon, their hearts were cold to the extreme for a while, and they were already surrounded, and Guan Qiong and the others were divided and killed, so that they could not see their own people around them, and for a while, they completely lost their fighting will in their hearts, and completely fled.

"Chase?!" Xia Hai asked.
Fang Zheng shook his head: "The poisonous dragon and the owl dragon are all dead, the bandits are gone, these people, just let them go, and once they are pursued, the battle of the trapped beasts, the villagers will suffer a lot!"
"Okay, I'll go see how the others are doing......" Xia Hai nodded.
"No!" Although Fang Zheng was out of breath, he still pulled Xia Hai and said very formally: "You have more important things!"
"What's the matter?"
......
After cleaning up the battlefield, Guan Feng stepped forward to report the battle report: "The explosion killed two hundred and two people, forty people were seriously injured and unconscious, thirty-seven people were disabled, and one hundred and seventy enemies were killed on the battlefield outside." ”
"There were no dead or injured nine of us!"
"Seven of the hundred horsemen were killed and thirty-seven were wounded, seventy-eight villagers were killed and three hundred and eighty-two were injured!"
"That is, all the villagers who participated in the battle were injured?" Fang Zheng sighed after listening to the battle report.
Guan Feng nodded: "After all, the other party is a martial arts cultivator!"
At this time, Li Chang was injured and came to Fang Zheng with a bandage, his face full of gratitude: "Fang Shaoxia, don't blame yourself, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have known that we could defeat the disciple of Xiuwu......"
"Although there are casualties, it can be regarded as a catastrophe in my backing town. ”
"Moreover, it is better than the slaughter of the whole village!"
"Fang Shaoxia!" Li Yun came over with a group of people and immediately knelt down towards Fang Zheng: "You not only saved our backing town, but also saved the entire village near Qinglin Mountain......"
"It's also you who let us all live as one person from now on!"
"It's serious, you all get up!" Fang Zheng helped Li Yun up and looked at the crowd behind him.
At this time, Li Chang stepped forward and said respectfully: "Put it down, what about those captured bandits?"
Li Chang couldn't do anything for a while, so let it go? That's a scourge, killing? After all, they are just civilians, not people who kill people without blinking, and they really can't do this kind of thing.
"You set up a security team, there are a lot of vacancies for farming, let these bandits fill the vacancies!" Fang Zheng's mind turned, and he immediately thought of a plan.
"Scatter them all in various villages and farmlands, monitor them on weekdays, and never let them contact each other!"
"There is no threat from a single person!"
"After a long time, they will slowly integrate into you, and if they can't fit in, then they will be slaves for the rest of their lives, and they should atone for the sins they have committed!"
Three days later, the bandits were taken into custody and became the main labor force for the reconstruction of the town, and Xia Hai also returned from Qingzhou City.
"How's it going?!" Fang Zheng immediately asked.
On that day, what Fang Zheng asked Xia Hai to do immediately was to go to Qingzhou Mansion to inquire.
The entire Dragon County, except for the Dragon Capital, has 33 cities, Qingzhou City is one of them, a city has 5,000 guards, and there are four major military camps in the southeast and northwest, stationed in the army.
Not every city has a sect, and almost all of them are not in the city.
However, Qingzhou City is very special, Zhiyanmen is in the city, there are many more disciples of the sect than the army defending the city, the sect is powerful, and the government does not dare to manage it.
Although Fang Zheng pulled out the Qinglin Mountain bandit and killed the poisonous dragon behind the scenes, after all, the poisonous dragon was a member of the Zhiyanmen, and moreover, he also brought more than 500 disciples.
However, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. There must also be overbearing disciples in the sect, and if this goes on for a long time, there will inevitably be people in the government who have deep grievances.
Therefore, he asked Xia Hai to go to Qingzhou Mansion before the injured disciples returned, looking for some people in the official mansion, and checking and balancing Zhiyanmen.
Xia Hai reported at this time: "I went to inquire according to what you said, and there are indeed some officials in the Qingzhou City Mansion who are dissatisfied with Yanmen, so I told one of the overseers about the collusion between the poisonous dragon and the dragon!"
"The Overseers immediately sealed the dragon's dwelling and found his correspondence with the bandits!"
"In order to protect itself, Zhiyanmen completely dissociated itself from the poisonous dragon, and will not investigate the killing of the poisonous dragon and his outer disciples in Gushan Town, but instead, because of their negligence in poor management, they were fined some compensation to each village in Gushan Town!"
"In this way, it can be regarded as a perfect completion......" After Fang Zheng heard it, he was also relieved.
"Plop", behind him, Li Chang knelt down towards Fang Zheng with all the villagers in the backing town, and said gratefully: "We were too ignorant before, but you didn't give up on us and resisted the bandits alone. ”
"We betrayed you, but you didn't care about the past and thought about us everywhere!"
Saying and talking, Li Chang actually cried: "Your great kindness to us, the villagers of our backing town, and even all the villages around Qinglin Mountain, are unforgettable!"
Fang Zheng smiled slightly: "It's serious, isn't cultivating martial arts just to hoe the strong and help the weak?!"
"Hoe the strong and help the weak?" Guan Qiong muttered silently, and Tang Tang and the others looked at Fang Zheng with a much more solemn expression.
Xia Haile looked at Li Chang: "That, our mission record scroll, can you use your blood to unravel the mark, and then ...... Give us the balance of the posting task as well......"
"This is not a matter of money, but we need to return the money to the Holy Martial Academy to hand over the task to be effective!" Tang Tang knew that the backing town needed to recuperate, and the formation of a new security team would also require a large amount of materials, and there were many places where money was needed, so he explained.
"It should be, it should be!" Li Chang smiled happily.
This task, when it was released, had a total cost of 100,000 taels of silver. In the Nine Spirits Realm, the price of goods is different from that of the earth, and an ordinary family of five spends about 100 taels of silver a year. This 100,000 taels of silver is not a small amount for these villagers.
"Forget it, I'll give you this money!" Although it is not a small number for the villagers, but for Fangzheng, it is a drop in the bucket, and 100,000 taels is only a hundred silver dollars......
"How can this work!" Li Chang immediately refused!
"Then, I look at the east end of the village, the banyan tree is very good, I'll buy that piece of land for a hundred silver dollars!" Fang Zheng changed his way and said with a smile: "I haven't been here for a long time, you have to help me take a good look at it, don't be stolen by someone......"
"This~"
"Dad, don't refuse!" Although Li Yun is young, he has been following his grandfather for a long time and seems to be more sensible than Li Chang.
"Then, without further ado, we take our leave!" After the matter was done, Fang Zheng had no reason to stay here, and said goodbye to the two fathers and sons, so he packed up his things and rode away on horseback.
Not far out of the village, I heard a constant rumbling behind me. Fang Zheng and the others stopped and saw Li Yun galloping with a hundred people on war horses!
"You don't have to send it anymore!" Fang Zheng hugged his fist.
Li Yun smiled: "We are not here to send you, but ......"
"From now on, we are willing to follow Fang Shaoxia to the death!" (To be continued.) )
